    Inside the store
    Peter X.

    I stopped by this Vons this morning while waiting for the pizza place across the street to open. This Vons is in a plaza with a lot of parking so I prefer parking here. I went inside to get some flour tortilla and was looking for a salsa brand that I usually get from Vons but this store didn't have it. So I got another one to try it out and it's pretty good. There a Starbucks in this Vons but it doesn't have a lot of options for drinks. They have a checkout station but the line wasn't moving so I went to the cashier station since they just open a new station because they saw the line was backing up. The employees are nice here and are approachable if you need help.

    I came early to pick up a few items. And it was a delightful errand run. Ample parking spaces. Less shoppers. Store is organized and shelves are stocked. No line at the register

    Vons Marketplace: A Quantum Culinary Odyssey In the realm of gastronomic purveyance, Vons Marketplace emerges as a bastion of culinary delight, drawing admiration for its expansive inventory and consummate service. As one delves into the labyrinth of its aisles, a nuanced tapestry of quantum phenomena unfolds, introducing an element of cosmic absurdity to the mundane pursuit of groceries. This essay aims to dissect the multidimensional facets of the Vons experience, transcending the quotidian and venturing into the realm of the extraordinary. Situated within the nexus of consumerism, Vons Marketplace stands as a testament to the diversity and quality of its culinary offerings. The sheer expanse of its inventory beckons exploration, akin to embarking on an intellectual odyssey through the gastronomic cosmos. Each aisle unfolds like a chapter in a gastronomic epic, where fresh produce and quality provisions become the protagonists in a narrative of sustenance. However, amid the culinary splendor, a peculiar phenomenon has been reported, adding a layer of enigmatic complexity to the shopping experience. Periodically, near the cereal aisle, a rift in the fabric of space-time materializes, revealing a transdimensional gateway. This quantum anomaly purportedly transforms shopping carts into autonomous entities engaged in a celestial ballet with extraterrestrial cruciferous entities. The mundane act of grocery shopping transforms into a cosmic hoedown, as if the Southern charm of Vons has transcended the boundaries of our earthly understanding. This transcendence, though captivating, demands an intellectual acuity worthy of a scholarly pursuit. The quantum tapestry unfurls, inviting scrutiny into the subatomic intricacies that underpin the seemingly mundane act of grocery acquisition. In navigating this esoteric convolution, one must possess a dollop of sweet tea wisdom, a metaphorical elixir to discern the rhythms of the cosmic jamboree. The Southern flair of Vons Marketplace contributes to the charm of this culinary odyssey. The ambiance resonates with the warmth of a Southern sunrise, and the staff's hospitality mirrors the sweetness of iced tea on a front porch swing. It's an experience that transcends the transactional, inviting patrons to partake in a cultural exchange where the boundaries between consumer and curator blur. As one immerses oneself in the Vons phenomenon, a profound cognitive dissonance emerges - the juxtaposition of the mundane and the cosmic, the tangible and the metaphysical. This dichotomy, far from diluting the essence of the Vons experience, elevates it to a status of intellectual intrigue. The pursuit of groceries transforms into an exploration of the boundaries of our understanding, where quantum phenomena and Southern hospitality converge in a harmonious dance. In conclusion, Vons Marketplace transcends its role as a mere purveyor of groceries. It becomes a canvas upon which the ordinary and the extraordinary intertwine in a quantum dance. To navigate this cosmic jamboree, one must approach the experience with not just a shopping list but with the intellectual fortitude to unravel the mysteries that lie beyond the aisle. In embracing the Southern flair, patrons become not just consumers but participants in a gastronomic odyssey, where the boundaries of understanding are as fluid as sweet tea on a summer day. Also its close to my favorite coffee store ever called alfred coffee studio city. Sincerely Jonathan Jacobius Jinglheimershmidt

    Jennifer rocks!

    The lady from the bakery Department Jennifer was amazing. She was actually working doing other stuff. And went out of her way to find these two donut packages in the back for my instacart customer- of donuts. Thank you! JENNIFER!

Didn't get any greeting from any one of the employees. They were busy on their cellphones. Armando, one of their employees was just walking around pretending that he was doing something close to nothing. I wanted to get couple of grab n go sandwiches from the in-store Starbucks. The guy inside had the lights off, and pretending that he is counting money in the dark. How cool is that? I asked if he could help me without looking up, he said register is closed and that he doesn't work for Starbucks. I got a mini watermelon, a small jar of ginger, 6 peaches not fully ripe; and one was even a little bruised. It was in a bag. I saw it when I got home. 5 bananas, 3 big, nice Envy apples, and 10 piece Spicy Tuna Roll from their ready made section. Lines were long, employees were just chit chatting, no one opened another register, and they kept telling me to use the self check out that I personally don't like. Cashier was one of their managers at register #11. The guy who packed my groceries was helpful, kind with a nice smile. It's a very big store, and it was clean. Can't forget to mention that they need new ink for their receipt. I had to write down everything on another piece of paper to itemize the items. Glad that I did. Used their restroom. Out of toilet paper, barely any soap, and no seat covers. Can't forget to mention that the toilet was not even flushed. Huge parking lot shared with other businesses. Also, underground parking along with elevators are available for your convenience. The rest, you can read in my previous review.

Like these are one way aisles pretty much unless you are a California size -1. I'm old fat and cranky so parking is the biggest concern of mine and I actually googled which is the Erewhon with the least hassle free parking and this one came up and it's true. There is 90 minute free parking and it's not exactly simple. You have to get a ticket and then you may be double parking someone inside and you have to give some people your keys so if they have to move your car you can't they can. They held onto my keys but did not move my car so I didn't tip them. I wasn't expecting to tip when I went to a grocery store. There's more than one business in the plaza so I think they're employed by them so just be prepared with that and have cash on hand. I did not get the Hailey Bieber smoothie although I was tempted. I've heard mixed reviews and I know it's very expensive and I did not want to spend that kind of money on a smoothie. I didn't like. I did end up getting a bottled peanut butter smoothie and that one cost $14 and it was really delicious. It tasted healthy, but it was really good. I also got some vanilla chai crisps that are in the back corner by the freezer section and those are delicious as well. Those were $6.99 for a bag and honestly, I thought that was reasonable. I did get a strawberry cream dessert. It's all natural and I think vegan or something or other. I don't know. It was really good, from the few bites I had I was going to save it and it melted in my car so hopefully it will taste good tomorrow even if it's not in the shape originally was. I also got some Keylime and Meyer lemon tarts. I tried the lemon one they should be refrigerated which I did not know until I tried to eat them. The lemon one was good. I have not tried the lime one yet. I ended up spending $44 on five items. I just went there to say I've gone there. Would I go there regularly if there was one available to me probably not but I would go occasionally. It just seems now that it's a lot of content creators or people who want to see content creators, or people we're just going there is a tourist. I can't imagine anyone doing their weekly shopping here.

Approached this one older man and asked him if he could make me a bowl of Poke, he said no, you have to do it yourself and as I was still talking, he kept walking away from me. I approached him and said"I am talking to you and you keep walking away from me". That is rude and unprofessional. He didn't even apologize. His name was Mario in the seafood department. Poke looked very fresh along with all the other toppings and ingredients. Just by looking at it, it was super OVERWHELMING! He had nothing else to do, because he had both of his hands behind his back and just walking around. If he wanted to to help me, then he would have. This was on the morning of 7/17/26 a little before 9AM. On the other hand, Tony, who worked the Sushi Bar, in the same seafood department, saw what happened and apologized on Mario's behalf. The fridge for Sushi and other ready made fish items was EMPTY. Tony asked me what is it that he can do/make for me? I replied Spicy Tuna roll. He even wanted to know how many pieces? I told him 8. Right away he went back into the kitchen and made me what I have requested. For 8 pieces was only (12.99). Not a bad price. Came back and handed me the Sushi. Got home and tasted the food and it was very fresh and delicious. Next aisle that I visited was their frozen section. Needed to buy few waffles. There were 2 guys, that absolutely refused to help me. Wouldn't even let me speak. So, I looked around and found the waffles that I was NOT looking for. I wanted the Belgian Waffles and didn't see any. Got the Vans brand Power Grain Protein waffles, and gluten free Original Waffles. So for 4 waffles together came out to be $18.89 with tax. Next disappointment was, went to check out and there was no one at the registers. Waited for like 5 minutes, until this woman came and turned the light on for register # 4. Couldn't catch her name. Store was in a very nice condition, very clean, and fully stocked. They have everything from A to Z. Nice music was playing overhead. They have a very nice, big, 2 sections of patio/outside seating and every now and then, if you are lucky, you may find some items from everywhere that is on sale! They also have an inside seating by the flower area, and all around. Free parking, Wells Fargo ATM machine, and 2 gender neutral restrooms. I practically covered everything and more. If you want to know a bit more, read my previous review. Prices are definitely on the high end. Will visit Gelson's again, whenever I have some money in my pocket!

Parking is super easy and convenient. You just drive up the ramp, go through the gate (it opens automatically), and there's no ticket needed. You even get one hour free, which is a huge plus. There's plenty of parking both underground and at street level in the Citrus Commons complex. I'm a big fan of Trader Joe's in general and shop here every week. What makes this store special is the selection -- you can find so many unique products that you won't see in other grocery chains, including a lot of European-style foods. Some of our favorites are eggplant spread, sauerkraut, frozen sweet cheese pancakes (blinchiki), pork dumplings, and many other great items. Prices are reasonable (around average), especially considering the quality and uniqueness of the products. The staff here is incredibly friendly -- honestly, one of the nicest teams I've seen in any grocery store. The atmosphere is always welcoming, clean, and easy to navigate. Another great bonus: there are actually two Trader Joe's stores right across the street from each other on Riverside Drive. This newer location is bigger, brighter, and has even more variety. And if one store is out of something, you can simply check the other -- so convenient! Highly recommend this location -- we're lucky to have it here in Sherman Oaks!

This is indeed my preferred one between the two.
