"One of my favorite grocery stores of all time."…read more I have been to this store numerous times. At first I did not realize how nice it was and then I got to know the wonderful staff. Special thanks to the front manager, Derek and the wonderful cashier, Serena. These 2 are the folks who make this business work. Thank you for hiring such good employees and making this such a pleasant experience to shop here. I will be returning many, many times

Came here on opening day to see what all the fuss was about lol. It was about 10am, after the…read moremorning rush of chaos for a reusable canvas bag. I parked over by the bank, instead of risking to get stuck in the building parking. I also noticed some patrons parking at the library, which is still very close. There was a ton of samples being handed out, the DJ was still paying music, and lines were long. I wasn't looking for anything in particular but the store was very clean and plenty of employees available to help. They had a ton of yummy stuff available in the grab and go counters, but high key expensive. Did a little walk around and decided to grab some milk. They have so many different types of milk lol. They also had a lot of healthy stuff available. We stood in the self checkout line for about 15 min, which felt overwhelming. I'm happy SL has a great grocery store in the area because the Safeways are all run down atp. I hope to stop by again soon.

This review is more about one staff member that went above & beyond for me…read more I enjoy a certain brand of beer and it increasing over the years disappeared from the larger Bay Area. I tried numerous grocery store and even BevMo & searched even Fremont Brewing website. All leads became dead ends. This week I stopped at Whole Foods and met Jackson. Jackson was responsible for the liquor area in the store. He explained to me they used to carry it but it didn't sell. I explained my story and he said "I can special order it". No mark up just by a case which I eagerly agreed. Four days later I had my old time favorite beer "Sky" by Fremont Brewing. Jackson is a pleasant guy interested in satisfying his customer. He made my day and I will be always grateful. Thank you Thank you.

I would have given 5 stars…read more This experience was the reason that took all the stars away. I was at the self check out counter and a staff was really rude to me: she kept telling me to scan an item a certain way and it did not work. Also my Amazon Palm was not working: she kept insisting that it would be better not to use it since I did not set it up correctly/ she was very rude too. After I checked out, I found out that she was in a hurry since it was the end of her shift. Maybe it would be good if staff members could be scheduled into the back storage room or restocking rather than customers-facing at the end of their shifts: just a suggestion.

I also wanted to highlight their deli as we like to get their sandwiches and salads for lunch. You can order sandwiches online (either their pre-designed combos or build your own) that are ready within 30 minutes, and highly recommend their different sides, including the San Francisco potato salad, marinated beet salad, lemon linguine pasta, among many others.

You can redeem your rewards at this pump with no problems. I added my rewards and the only way to get my gas was to keep holding the handle. Before all of this I kept wondering why the mini van in front of me was doing nothing there. I learned the hard way why.

We needed to pick up a few things. The parking lot wasn't too crowded; there were shopping carts in…read morethe cart corral, and the store was reasonably stocked, clean and organized. The best part was that for a change, my receipt properly reflected the prices that I expected to pay. This is almost unheard of no matter which Safeway I go to. So many times, I've been told that I failed to properly scan a coupon, chose the wrong items, or selected the wrong quantity. I won't digress. They had what I wanted and this was a decent experience.

Pros are low prices , has everything you need. Not all the service s not as big as Safeway but you can get everything you need basically . People who work here are nice . They always have a sale and the sales papers are on the right when you enter . Candy is locked up now. You don't need a membership to shop here like Costco . The other nearest one is in Danville. I shop here mostly when I need things for a cookout or bbq season. They carry everything , even lottery kiosk.

Not as busy (or maybe I don't go during peak hours) with plenty of parking. I usually buy the basics but great for nuts, produce, eggs, fresh salmon, Furikake Snack Mix, dog treats, frozen almond croissants and other tempting goodies I try to pass on. They have a nice plant selection of tropical and succulents and inexpensive flowers for a gift or yourself. Staff always friendly and efficient. Place clean, organized and well stocked. Parking convenient.

Trader Jose in Pleasanton is loved on Santa Rita road near by Macy's furniture…read more There are free parking in front of the store . However , it is usually full and you need to Park a little farther away then walk . They have a new items section that I found very helpful. All the new items are displayed on one tall shelf and it is better than reading the newsletters and look for them in different locations of the store . They sell their sturdy trustable shopping bag for 99 cent . It is large , well made and with pretty graphic designs. I hate to pay to get a paper bag then it torn out after one use or in the middle of walking to my car ! Trader has top quality of Angus beef ( rib eye , sirloin) , organic chicken , salmon and other seafood. It has a huge fresh fruits and vegetables section .Healthy bakery and snacks . It has healthy ingredients and the prices are lower than Whole food . Many products are imported from Europe. It is clean , organized, carry all the food and non food items for daily use . Excellent service and friendly staffs . What else can you ask for ? I vote this as my number one choice of grocery store.

For crispy skin roasted pig , San Rita road location is the best . I bought my $14.99 combo box today . It is a large rectangular box and you can fill in with items of your choice . It is $14.99 . If you buy just one meat item and a medium size paper box is already $12 The self served deli section has fried rice , stir fry egg noodle and hor fun ( rice fiat noodle ) . Many different types of cooked vegetables ( Napa , broccoli, zucchini, egg plants , etc ) and meats ( chicken , beef , fish , shrimp , beef brisket ) tofu , etc . They all taste great and you can stack up a lot more of you put the smaller pieces in the bottom . I bring my own extra containers. After I paid the cashier I put all the salt & pepper fish filet into my own container to keep it dry and fluffy. The batter they use are very tasty and light. It has so much room I have enough food to last me two meals . For the $14.99 combo you must put in some rice and vegetables. Cannot be all meats . That is not hard to arrange . I have includes photos and the prices list for the deli section . They get the first batch of food around 11:00 and then refill once around 2 pm . During the holidays , you can order grilled turkey marinaded in BBQ flavor . It is delicious and we order it often .

It's been a while since I've gone here for grocery shopping. And well, I prefer going to other…read moreAsian markets. I've noticed they don't carry a lot of the products they used to carry. And they've gotten a lot more pricey. Like some of the buns, fresh or frozen has gone up $2-3. Same with their fresh meat, poultry, and seafood. Selection is not as great and their prices have gone up. The store isn't as organized like before. Also, the smell of dried fish always hits you as soon as you walk in. And still there's the lack of customer service. I'll probably be back only if I'm in need of a particular item, but that's about it.

I remembered it always looking old from outside. Parking lot is still tight in spaces and chaotic around here. Bakery is always the best spot inside. Food court area isn't huge, but with more investments there, it can turn out great too. I like how they put out all the stuff for sale & deals in designated areas now. Things are easier to spot, in case you want to find bargains. The Chinese New Year stuff are out and it doesn't feel expensive now. Red bag of rice crackers gift set large bag was only $8.88 today. Red envelopes are cheaper than the South Bay Area and other 99 Ranch locations. Checkout lines were clean looking too. It feels like they really did listen to customers needs. 5lbs bag of broken rice under $5 is perfect for porridge. Vermicelli $2.29 and Rice noodle pack $2.99. Not bad at all. No lines or crowds before lunchtime on weekdays. Grocery items are considered costly and overpriced at most 99 Ranch stores. I'm glad to see more sales signs/labels here. Good set up. Peaceful walk. Staffs appear happy in what they do here. The Chinese New Year items are worth browsing through during quiet January month.
