    Their quality of food is great. I noticed when I first walked in the door that they had a variety of flowers. Let me tell you that section stayed busy! It seemed like every other person was walking out with flowers. I bought some food items with great prices compared to sprouts. However, they did not have a large variety of vegetarian frozen food. The store is clean and organized.

    Everything was neatly organized and I found everything I was looking for. They had lots of items in stock and good prices. My friend recommended me to try the propolis for immunity support. Glad that the outer box was also wrapped. I also tried their bottle oolong tea and it was soooo good. Lovely strong tea flavor but not bitter. The staff were friendly, great service and I love the cleanliness and freshness of the store and items they carry.

    This is a wonderful Trader Joe's location! Place is clean and there's plenty of parking. The staff is friendly and they go out of their way to assist. All the cashiers are open at the same time. The stuff here is always fresh and the cheese section is out of this world! I love their seasonal snacks as well. Eggs here are cheap compared to other stores. Dairy products are top notch. Great place for groceries!

    Came in to check out the new expansion and so far so good! Open for business but still under construction. Much bigger and roomier then before with all the same great items! Staff was very helpful and there were no lines. Lots of check out stands ready to help you. Everyone seems to be excited and pleased about it from the shoppers to the employees. Excited for them to finish. Wonderful to have them at Orange Mall!

    This is my go to store. I live so close that if I need something for the fridge I can be there in less than five minutes on foot. Outstanding customer service from the staff; Madelyn, Gwen, Emily, Brittney, Madison, Chiara, Peri, Lei, Allison, Alexis, Cheyenne, and Eileen..... All do outstanding work! I have been to grocery stores all over planet earth. This location has the nicest, friendliest, employees I have ever encountered. The prices are very reasonable compared to other grocery stores. I really like some of the unique products, like the pasta sauces, cheeses, and chips. The thanksgiving Chips are epic! I really look forward to them every year. As a matter of fact, they're better than my actual thanksgiving dinner. I consider myself fortunate to have a store this great, so close to my doorsteps!

    Lovely people! Not too crowded ..lots of parking and great location...assistance was everywhere which was very nice! The aroma of fresh flowers was amazing!!! Fresh produce and healthy options is how I roll!!

    The fish section ALWAYS looks like this. The Tustin location is always well stocked, I've never had an issue at their location.

    The staff at this trader joe's is very nice and the store looks good after the remodel.The reason for the low rating is the product availability. I have been shopping here for years now, before the remodel, and after the availability has not improved at all. Over 50% of the time that I visit this store I have to go to another trader. Joe's because they're out of salmon or they're out of fresh leaf greens like spinach. My family and I love trader Joe's but this location, is a disappointment for sure.

    Cool store here in Tustin, Ca. I actually like this location better than my usual one. But I only came to this one because I was around the area. The store seemed smaller than others that I've been too, but I enjoyed it more. Very clean, well organized, spacious enough inside, comfortable aisles. Good variety of products, enough choices for everyone. Staff were very helpful and kind. I had to talk to them since I didn't know where things were.

    I've purchased Trader Joe's sardines here on several occasions and this is the 2nd time that I open up the containers, and find spoiled sardines. I've attempted to call the store but can never get anyone to answer the phone.

    Do they sell Daelman's stroopwafels here?

    I think you'll be able to find a little package at any of the stores. I do believe the brand name is on the package, Trader Joe's brands just about everything that goes into their stores, but I'm not sure if it is Daelman's. Still, I've had them… Read more

Then another bakery gal named Gaby jumped in saying Sarah didn't know what she was talking about and took my cake order. The price of the cake was $65+. It seemed costly for a grocery store cake but I finally agreed seeing as it was a multi layered "specialty" cake. Well to my surprise I received a call the following day to say that the way Gaby had written up the cake order that they can't and don't make that type of cake. I asked to speak to a manager and was told that she is only available in the mornings. I decided to go into the store to find out what was going on cause now I'm pissed about the whole situation. The bakery gal that was originally going to take my order, Sarah was there so I explained about the call and that I was there to find out what in the hell was going on. She could see that I was pissed and she immediately let me know that there is ALWAYS a "manger" available and that she would be happy to help me get a cake order done. Well she made my daughters cake special as she said and I wasn't changed a a ridiculous price. THANK YOU SARAH FOR GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE SKILLS

    Time for an update! This is the closest grocery store to me, so it's the one I shop at the most. To…read morebe honest, if there were competition at the same distance (besides Walmart and Target, which are fairly close), I'm not sure this would be my go-to grocery store. They just did another reshuffling of the aisles, which always confuses me for a while, but they added back full-size racks around the pharmacy. The last remodel added shorter racks for the medication, and they were backlit. It made the pharmacy feel special, like a store within a store. They instead cleared out the front of those same aisles for holiday seasonal displays. I think it's harder to find the medication I'm looking for now. You do need to app if you want certain deals, but check that receipt because they don't always work. I've had to call someone over twice in the past few months because the signage didn't match the price given. I feel bad for people who may not have or want a smartphone. The people who work here are more efficient than friendly. You'll often feel like you're interrupting a conversation between two employees unless you use self-checkout. Some are really nice. You'll often feel like you're interrupting a conversation between two employees unless you use self-checkout. I also hate that you have to answer a couple of questions every time you swipe/tap to pay. They always want a donation for something, and/or ask, "Would you recommend this location to someone else?" I'd like to opt out of those. The selection around the store is pretty good, and they do have good sales. There are a couple of things I need to buy at another grocery store, but they can't have everything. I do like the gas discount at Chevron stations. Finally, the bathrooms are gas-station-level. Always dirty, graffiti in places, chipped tiles, and/or sinks. Paper towels are usually on the floor. It's not a pleasant experience. Now I'm not a fan of having a code to get into the bathroom, but if they remodeled these, and they were nice, I wouldn't mind. ,

    This is for the bakery department. I ordered a cake for my daughter's 4th birthday party and gave…read morethem inspiration photos for simple decor and color of the frosting. Per their policies, you can't give them items to put on the cake, so I ended up doing that myself- which wasn't too hard. I went to pick up the cake yesterday and was very happy to see that the color was a perfect shade of Minnie Mouse pink and the white polka dots looked so cute. I did have Angel take the dots off the top since I needed to add the decorations- and she was so gracious to do so. She did such a great job. And also, Rosa was extremely helpful when I placed the cake order. For $22.99, Ralphs did an outstanding job of helping the decorations stand out and just be even cuter! I'd definitely come back to order another cake from them! (I did taste the buttercream frosting so I knew how it would taste- and I'm expecting the cake to be as good! :-)

There was, of course, no one at the deli counter to help, because the lady who manages the counter was "busy" in the back. So I waited. ...and waited. ...and waited. Another lady with a child rolled up to the hot food counter and she waited. ...and waited. ...and waited. Finally, the deli counter lady came out from the back, and approached the woman with the child and asked what she needed. The lady was kind enough to point out that I was there first. The deli lady came down and ask what I wanted. I said I'd like to pick up a few salads. She was very brusque with me, and said she couldn't hear me. I said, again, that I wanted to pick up a few salads. She then said "do I need to come out there?" What the hell, man? So, at that point, given her lack of customer service skills, her incompetence at managing the deli county, and her just plain rudeness, I decided that it was best that I take my business elsewhere. Stater Brothers over on Chapman has a FANTASTIC deli counter and the employees that manage the deli are GREAT. This Ralphs is terrible. Miserable customer service, I couldn't get the manager to talk with me (the checkout lady had no interest in getting the manager), and the quality of service in this store is just terrible. The store, while clean most of the time, is a pain to navigate; the aisles are usually full of carts of restock that just sit there for hours, the trash from the empty boxes just stacks up, and half the time - during the DAY, not early in the morning - the store looks like it's run by hoarders. Find ANYWHERE else to go!
