    Just found out how good this Stevia is. My daughter uses it in her coffee and other food. 04/20/26

    Monrovia California is the headquarters for Trader Joe's. I will never forget when they opened their first store in NYC. I certainly didn't understand the hype. I've definitely learned how to shop here. This year I've been introduces to many of their products that I'm sure I'll buy again. I'm highly recommending you check out all their merchandise. I love the greeting cards and their shopping & tote bags too. I've got one with wheels I've had many years. I found this bag so useful. Unfortunately they don't sell it any longer.

    Always a great experience at TJ. I've been here multiple times to grab the viral tote bags and was always able to get them by coming early. The service is always really good, and the cashiers are consistently personable. It's also fun trying out all the unique food items they have!

    This Trader Joe's is in close proximity to the head I and is one of the best stores of the brand! Everything was displayed to perfection and atmosphere was warm and inviting! The staff were extremely knowledgeable, friendly and accommodating! Joe and Olaff were very helpful and notable with regard to customer service. They both went the extra mile to assist us. Thank you Trader Joe's of Monrovia

    Came in, during outside construction lots of people on a busy Sunday, staff was friendly and fully stocked while people were shopping before the Super Bowl. we usually get the chili crunch and now in seasoning which we like on our salads and Asian foods. Store is bright and clean and decorated nicely.

    This is the TJs I go to every week! I love shopping at TJs because they always have new items and it's always fun to try new things! I love that they have everything you need at a grocery store but are able to keep it small in size where it's not overwhelming to shop for a particular item. It's pretty magical that they can have such a variety for the size of their markets compared to other markets. Some of my favorite all time items from them are the following: 1. frozen cod rice with ratatouille and rice. (Product from France) 2. Spaghetti with meat sauce (product from Canada) 3. New item recently -BBQ pork fried rice. 4. frozen bugolgi 5. frozen Korean beef ribs. 6. their variety of nuts like shelled Pistachios and Roasted Cashews. 7. also their Dubai Chocolate are one of the best I've had! 8. organic chicken bone broth (super healthy and convenient) 9. honey flavored Greek yogurt. 10. ketchup chips!! 11. truffle chips 12. Cuban citrus chicken rice I can go on and on but the above are some of my favorites! I am definitely a TJ fan! However I am not into their tote bag hype. lol With all respect, I Have no clue why is it so popular? This is their success in their marketing skills!

    Clean and well stocked store, employees are friendly and constantly restocking shelves so you will never find empty space ANYWHERE in this store. Prices are very affordable and quality and taste of food items is very good.

    This is my preferred location when shopping. Staff is usually helpful, shelves are always stocked. I find many great items. Checkout is relatively fast, and parking is a breeze. I love that this store is always clean, staff is always moving and arranging items for customers. Many plants and flower arrangements available by the store entrance. Love the wine bottle options and I appreciate the visible item markers.

    This is my local Trader Joe's, and I'm never disappointed when I come. The staff are always SO friendly :') whenever I need something, I'm never scared to ask a staff to help out. They always give such great suggestions too :) Their produce is always so fresh & they're usually pretty stocked in the mornings. PSA if you want a high demand item go to TJs in the morning. If you go past 12pm, you won't have much luck ... especially for popular items. I will always luv u Trader Joe's! :-)

    I went with my daughters to buy my favorite instant oatmeal. I also found fig bars I wanted to try. The cashier was sweet and helpful. It was busy but all the registers were open. The surroundings were clean and the products were arranged neatly.

    Food Selection: 4/5 Prices: 3/5…read moreLook & Feel: 2/5 Overall: 3/5 stars So there's no doubt this is a huge market, but walking into the store was like walking back in time - somewhere in the early 90s, but no one did any renovation or upgrades in many parts of the market. It's really, really, REALLY rundown looking. The refrigeration systems and the shelves look fairly dated. But their overall stock is full here and there's staff walking around restocking and even watching you while you walk through. There's definitely a good variety of ingredients and brands I didn't really recognize, so they carry a lot of things. The prices on many items here were like conveinence store prices, but maybe it's like that for the the city and area. So lots of selection, but absolutely not much of a vibe here - just shop and that's it. They do play Cantonese and Mandarin songs on the speaker system, so that's kind of cool. Parking can be tight if you come here during a busy hour.

    Review #904 2025-#078…read more I discovered Good Fortune Supermarket because it shares parking with Yi Mei (refer to Review #903). I had some time to kill before having brunch with my brother, so my son & I browsed the supermarket to see if there's any goods that are interesting or a good deal. The market is well-stocked & organized, but the floors are dingy & screams for a deep clean. Yikes! Though the items on the shelves look like there's been turnaround since they're not dusty. Whew! =) Its offerings are similar to the local Asian markets, with a little less variety at slightly higher prices. The fresh fruits were absurdly pricey IMO, but there were a few "sales" though they're still higher than regular pricing elsewhere. Since we're over an hour from home, I only picked up some snacks like roasted peanuts (I love the Farmer Brand!), fermented hawthorn, & some biscuits. The cashiers were friendly... asked if I found everything I needed, & also greeted my son & asked if hawthorn is his favorite treat. While I didn't have any 好運氣 (good fortune) in finding any deals, I get some yummy treats for my 6 YO to nosh on while waiting for my brother. I prefer the Main St. location in Alhambra, but they've been temporarily closed since 09/2024; I usually shop there when I'm in the area because of the eateries nearby. I don't think I'll be making any return trips unless I'm dining next door.

    Amazing find! The reviews were very hit or miss, so I was hesitant to visit; i actually went to…read moreHeyden first, but they didn't have much options. So I was so happy to find that they had quite a good variety. I was planning on making a thank you fruit box for my uncle myself, but the man running the store said he could put one together for me, and I saw a whole wall of decorative options. It took quite a bit of time, but he was meticulous, adding ribbons, stickers, tissue paper. It came out beautiful. I also got some lychee, and they said it was the juiciest ones they've had in the states! The store is kind of bare, but there are specialty candy to fill the space as well. Definitely would be back.

    Super cool find of delicious and rare fruit!…read more I was a little skeptical as it seems a little new. But this place is so cool! Korean pears. Hawaiian Longon. Black watermelons. Red dragon fruits. Organic apples. Persimmons. Korean Muscat grapes. Kyoho grapes. All absolutely gorgeous! The price is not your typical Vons or Ralph's prices, as it should not be. If you're a fruit connosiuer, this is the place for you. If you trying to get a cheap deal for meh fruit, this isn't for you. They also have blue eggs and black truffle moon cake. I am so excited for this place and would love to come back. The worker is super friendly and explained everything to me. She let us try some samples of fruits and was overall so kind and sweet. I 100% recommend this place. Invest in your own health and stop buying fast food.

    First time in and I am a fan! It's a market with a deli inside. You take a number for the deli and…read moretheir menu is insane with a bunch of options!! Definitely hard to choose but we settled with Angry Joe and Grandma Gerry. While waiting for our sandwiches to be made, we walked around the market and picked up hot crushed peppers and peanut butter homemade cookies!! Everything tasted delicious and super fresh and service is awesome! You're taken care of asap and the wait is not long for either the deli or the checkout!! Will definitely visit again to try more sandwiches!!

    Visitation Rights: Been to this place couple of times…read more Background On Last Visit: Decided to get a quick lunch before heading off to Knotts Berry Farm over the weekend. Credit Cards: They're accepted. Restrooms: There's no restrooms available. Location/Parking: Located next to Denny's. Parking can be found along Huntington Dr. or you can park in the rear. Ambiance/Decor: It's basically an Italian grocery store will with a deli section. Order Of Operations: 1) Get a ticket 2) Wait for your number to be called 3) State your wants and needs, 4) Receive your wants and needs, and head to the register to pay for your stuff. 5) Exit shop and either go home or eat at their communal tables located in the back of the shop in the parking lot. Service: Service is pretty good. They're friendly and informative about their shop. Food comes out at a decent time. Sandwich Of Choice: So far I'v had the Grandpa Joe sandwich, which consists of capocollo, mortadelia, dry salame, provolone cheese, lettuce, tomato, sliced pepperoncini and oil dressing. Sandwich is quite quite excellent. The protein and other ingredients tastes fresh. Just a reminder that the cured meats and cheese can be a little salty. Claro's For Thought: I'll definitely come back to try more sandwiches and desserts.
