It's just that that area is not the cleanest area in the streets and there's people unloading and loading food and there's homeless and there's pee on the floor and it's just not a nice little walk so I think it'll be better if when placing an online order, you guys provide the address where we need to pick up our balloons that way we can just drive there and not have to walk through all of the nasty smells also I parked at the actual store and I had to walk back from that building to the store, they recommend to get my car and drive over but LA streets are just havoc and I don't want to do all that. i couldn't really walk through because the walkways were blocked with carpets and homeless people stuff. I know that out in the public it's not the stores responsibility of what happens, but you know make it more accommodating for the clients If you are going to switch buildings for pickup orders notify somehow.. The walk through the stink was just very gross and unpleasant

Cost "Less" doesn't always mean lower prices anymore. I recently found an item being sold here for…read moreabout $200 more than at Costco. Another thing to keep in mind is that they do not offer refunds--only exchanges or store credit. When the store first opened, I was able to find some great deals regularly. Unfortunately, that doesn't seem to be the case anymore. These days, finding a good bargain is hit or miss, so it's definitely worth comparing prices before making a purchase...especially since there are no refunds.

While waiting for a restaurant to seat you, you can walk around in here and look around. There were several things that were pretty unique to me, and I found the shop very well-managed and clean. Even though it was a small store, there was still several workers present which was pretty interesting to me. But yeah, I think if someone wants to buy anything related to anime, have any unique chopsticks, Pokemon, pencils, Sanrio, Studio Ghibli, or some squishy toys, they will enjoy coming here. Prices pretty reasonable. You will be tempted to buy something for sure! Lots of very cute plushies also and I found it funny/cool they even sold backpacks for Labubus! - no bathrooms inside - lots of blind boxes - cute eye-catching displays at the windows

HOW have I gone this long without reviewing Smarty's!?!?!…read more My daughter and I are Art's biggest fans. Every Thursday (which is when Art gets in his pallets of new inventory), she says to me "Happy Smarty's Day!" You just never know what you are going to find here. We have gotten the following items in the past year or two: a brand new Samsung dishwasher (a model that had only been on the market for five months, new in the box for over $700 off retail price!), a Ninja Creamy ice cream machine, Instant Pot lid that turns it into an air fryer, Dyson and Shark vacuum cleaners for hundreds off list price, deck boxes and hose reels for the backyard, a new microwave, an amazing array of plastic storage bins in all sizes for the garage/storage locker...and that's just off the top of my head! Going to Smarty's is our weekly treasure hunt. More than once, my daughter has bemoaned that she bought something elsewhere only to find it later at Smarty's for a fraction of the price. On the rare occasion that something we bought ended up damaged after we opened the box (which does happen from time to time, given the nature of the business of buying pallets of stuff from Amazon, Target, Walmart, etc.), Art has always made good and given us a full refund. I am almost loathe to tell people about this store because I want to keep these amazing, secret deals all to myself, but I also want Art to stay in business forever. Thanks, Art! We'll see you on Thursday! :)

I wanted to update my review and increase the rating because it's only fair to acknowledge that…read moreafter I mentioned the lack of hand baskets, they significantly increased the number available Overall, I really enjoy shopping at Grocery Outlet. The prices are very reasonable, and one thing I genuinely appreciate is the constantly changing selection. There's always something new to discover--one week it might be a certain brand of frozen dinners, and the next week it's a completely different lineup. That variety keeps things interesting. The staff are consistently friendly, which makes a big difference. And for a relatively small store, I'm always impressed by how much they manage to stock. My one ongoing issue is the coffee section. The store carries more whole bean coffee than ground, which would be great--except the in-store grinder hasn't been working for quite some time. For those of us without a grinder at home, that's definitely frustrating. Aside from that, it's a wonderful little store that I'm happy to keep coming back to.

The amount that I love Grocery Outlet, y'all! LOL!…read more I detest shopping but there's something about grocery shopping and getting deals, I very much enjoy taking an edible and spending way more than I should at Grocery Outlet. This particular location in Downtown is a sneaky win! My own bias made me avoid this location thinking it would have hard parking & be a bit dingy but it's honestly SO clean and well organized here. Plus, tons of parking. The Downtown Grocery Outlet may be my new favorite location! I think it's really fun trying all the cool promo items they have here but also finding things I regularly buy (a specific brand of green tea, a specific Korean fancy brand of coffee, really expensive cat foods) at 75% off sometimes - I'm in heaven! You can have fine things at a good price! Grocery Outlet has you covered. Most Grocery Outlets are independently owned so another thing about shopping here, you can feel like you are supporting a good local family. Great deals, great items, I'll obvi be back!

I called the store and they told me I had to come at a later time for a refund. I asked if I could just send a photo of the receipt and picture of the food I didn't want to be carrying moldy food and a receipt I had to fish out of the trash and do a round trip for a $2.75 refund. They said that's all they could offer. I had to take the day off because I felt unwell after eating the moldy food but that wasn't even a concern of theirs. I am so disgusted by this entire experience. Avoid their food products.

While there isn't a huge selection of items what they do have is actually really useful and also sometimes you can find some good brand items and household goods. I purchased Essentials Fear of God items (t-shirt and matching shorts) for over half off and at the time of my visit they also had True Religion jackets and sweats as well as alo yoga waist bags. The cashier also mentioned in the past they've had lululemon items and stock usually on Thursdays. Super friendly service and decent value on what you get, just maybe go in with an open mind on what you might be looking for. Parking in Westwood is usually street parking or if you are going to some of the other stores they have validation in their lots. Worth checking out if you're in the area!
