    Long lines at Vons, TWO checkers in the entire store.

    Have time to kill to write this, I'm sitting in line for checkout, have been for the last ten minutes. It's 5:46 Friday evening. Is this typically a bad time to shop? People stocking up for the weekend(?). I would think it is routinely busy. There were TWO (2) checkers, INCLUDING SEKF CHECKOUT. One of the checkers in a regular line would run back and forth between her lane and self checkout. Really? Needless to say the lines are HUGE. This picture doesn't do it justice as the majority are hidden in the aisles. Two checkers, total during a predictably busy time, Seriously Vons? No thanks, I'll stop somewhere else next Friday

    Fried chicken had a crunchy batter and was nice and juicy inside.  I liked the flavor of the batter which was salty with a good amount of pepper.  The oil they fry in was fresh and of good quality as there was no aftertaste.  In the past I've stayed away from supermarket fried chicken but Vons has a good product now.  I prefer the flavor of Stater Bros fried chicken but Vons is in second place. I showed up at 11am and the chicken was fresh out of the fryer.  Regular price is $7.99 but they often have sales where the price goes down to $4.99 which is a great deal.  Getting that deal is a bit tricky.  You have to register for the Vons rewards program Just 4 U.  Then you have to either download the app or go to vons.com and add the digital coupon which is hidden under the deli tab.  Then you have to enter your phone number at the register to get the deal price.   I also tried the fried chicken at Ralphs but I didn't like it that much.  I would return for Vons fried chicken if it was on sale and I was free around 11am. That's when I'm sure I'll get freshly fried chicken.

    This review is just for the floral department. Aiden, the floral manager, is amazing!! She has helped me put together so many orders. My most recent one was for a friend who was retiring. The arrangements came out so beautifully and the tablescape was so pretty! Even the restaurant manager commented on how lovely it looked Thank you Aiden for always providing me with all of my floral needs! You're the BEST!

    Today is 9/27. They gave me these expired and opened chicken livers dated 9/23.

    I made the mistake of placing another mobile order here. Again, they gave me an expired meat product (today is 9/27, they gave me an OPENED container of chicken livers with a use by date of 9/23). Two items which are very common were out of stock, and no substitutions available (Parmesan cheese and shredded mozzarella), really? I don't believe that. To that point, their app shows items in stock that they don't even carry in the store. I've become so frustrated with them that I only shop at Ralph's nearby. At least I won't get food poisoning.

    They never employ enough cashiers. It's always 5-10 people deep regardless of coming in the morning or evening.

    Good selection. For some reason every single time I've gone there were no baskets up front. Do they not restock those?

This particular Trader Joe's is located in the Liberty Station area and is beautiful! It's off the main street before entering deep into the hustle of shopping and eateries. We quickly checked it out and found our favorites! This trip, we bought some dips, chips, quick frozen meals, coconut water, smoked Gouda cheese and crackers, ice coffee concentrate, heavy whipping cream, and apples. They have their own parking lot. It seemed extremely busy and crowded. The employees were very friendly and helpful as always. They had samples out that day. I always loved sampling the newest thing. They had packages of the cooked bacon bits. They offered on top of a salad. It was very tasty!

Never really asked how the visit was or if I found everything I needed. It was just something that could probably be a conversation to have while you're on your break and not while tending to a customer. They were very loud about it too, to obnoxious level. I always have praised employees at Trader Joe's because they always seem happy and are very friendly and offer great customer service but these guys... just wasn't it Other than that, is Trader Joe's and yes I found what I needed. I did notice though that this Trader Joe's had some different products in that my local Trader Joe's doesn't have so got to try something new to me, just kinda bummed mine doesn't have them

I've been in before and bought one of my favorite wines, but it was all about dessert today. I also grabbed a Talenti vanilla gelato because you can't have apple pie without it being ala mode! I waited at the register since there wasn't anyone around, but then the friendly worker came out from over by the coffee area. Apologized and rang me up. He: The pie is 50% off Me: What? He: Yes Scored! They offer the discount when the pie is a day after its "sell by" but it was still delicious! Ok, so now I'm going to stop in when I'm in the neighborhood. I still would've paid full price because I love Julian pies! Great little market!

Service is always helpful and friendly, from answering questions to finding things. The second half of the store even contains a deli & coffee shop. Finally tried their Latte and it's perfect.

It's difficult to leave without an armful of goodies!!

The store carries products from some of my favorite local vendors that I usually only find at the farmers market, along with a great selection of unique drinks and specialty items. One of the highlights was trying the banana water, which was marked as an employee favorite, and now I can see why. Truly taste like a banana, very interesting. The store was well organized, fully stocked, and easy to browse. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming. While some items are a bit pricier than what you'd find at a traditional grocery store, the quality and clean ingredients make it well worth the cost. It's a great place to discover healthier options and support local brands at the same time. They also offer a membership for just $15 per year, which seems like a great value if you plan to shop there regularly. I'll definitely be stopping by again!

They also have pour your own maple syrup and honey. You can also make your own peanut butter and almond butter! Really cool, first time I've seen that!
