Best place in town everyone is so friendly and welcoming and bus tenders really know how to make a customer leave with a smile and a bag full of goodies don't sleep on this spot they never disappoint read more

Came all the way from San Jose to check this club out because of a friend. I am so glad I did all of the stizzy pods were cheap, I live in San Jose and Stizzy pods don't come in variety like they do here . The club was nice, clean, I was lucky I got there at the time I did because right when I got there the line was full with 10+ people. I can see why shit I guess I'm going to be driving from San Jose to Modesto every other week to get my weed and cartridges. There was also a gentleman with glasses who helped me who was very attentive he remembered my order and paid attention to us, I ordered so much stuff and kept continually asking him what was it that I was purchasing just to make sure I had everything in order and he remembered everything because of his customer service we gave him a $20 tip. Best experience I've had in a dispensary so far. read more

Be ready to be harassed if you're excused from wearing a mask due to health reasons. They need to educate the staff on ADA, HIPAA and the difference between a recommendation and a law. There's zero penal code associated with the current face mask recommendation which makes it not enforceable by law enforcement. Which means your guard is an idiot. Turn down the club music so we the customers can be heard and can hear the staff! read more

They have a pretty good selection of different cannabis. The girls at work behind the counter are super nice. But what rubs me the wrong way is their security that they have in there. These guys are like overly aggressive. I was outside taking pictures of the moon and one of the wimpy ass security guards knocks on my window and tells me I need to delete the pictures because it's not allowed in this parking lot. They're just wannabe cops and I don't have time for it when I'm just trying to purchase my medicine. So I won't be going back there. I'll go to Phenos right up the street. read more

Customer service was excellent especially the receptionist Isabel. Bartenders knowledgeable and helpful.

Alright listen here my little stoners gather around ! I have been to multiple dispo places in the Modesto area. This place is honestly the best bang for your buck! So you tryna get some fire bud on a budget this is the places for you! read more

The people working there were extremely nice and helpful. I was shocked at how low the prices were. Will definitely go back.

This is honestly the best dispo I've been to. They have such good deals. I spent $100 and got 6 prerolls for $1. Unbeatable. Also it's so nice inside lol read more

First and last time I will never go in to this dispensary the weed taste and smells like mold what to do read more

Authentic 209 - Cannabis Dispensaries Near Me - Modesto, California

See all

Bought a stiiizy cartridge here last Thursday didn't open it until Sunday cartridge is defective would not work in my big stiiizy or my regular Sissy Tuesday brought it back to the store with the receipt after waiting over 20 minutes for the manager because it takes a manager for any approval on this I was told that if I brought it back the same day it would be no problem but because it was a few days later out of the goodness of their heart they would exchange it but I would have to pay the sales tax over again so I paid an extra 8:25 on top of 825 I paid originally intacs this is double taxation absolutely ridiculous they have lost a very good customer read more

Valenteen and Candace are always so nice and informative. This is my go to store in Modesto!

The best place I've been to over here in Modesto. lol reminds of the clubs in LA too. It's nice and hella big, my go to when I'm in Modesto.

Authentic 209 is the best dispensary in town! I just moved here a few weeks ago and already feel at home thanks to these guys! Smoking weed is my biggest reliever so being able to buy here and get treated so nicely makes this shop my go to! 10/10, great job guys! read more

Von is a wonderful addition to 209 Authentic and making it a fun environment. I found the prices on point. I am back again and ready for the upscale product line. read more

Best place for a large selection best prices great bartenders very friendly and extremely helpful. I recommend this place to get your goods.

This place used to be great..but now it sucks...starting with reception that the last 4 times I have been in have to reenter my driver's license...I have been here many times, no longer do they carry bath bombs, pain patches, items...today was it...from reception that had to reenter again my license, to the rude, ridiculously loud music...then to the management that refused to come off a ten minute break to help with an issue I was having...i was asked to wait...i expressed my disappointment about the music was given a rude comeback...i stopped at the door on the way out, again expressing my disappointment....not one of the 3 people even cared...so so sad and mad to be blown off and treated with such disrespect...i am a disabled senior, have to get a ride for meds, refuse to be treated so poorly...bottom of the barrel dispensary!!!! read more

Amazing staff, great store. I love being greeted on the way in you never really see that at other shops. Whenever I don't know what I want these guys know what hits. I know I can go back and these guys won't let me down. Thank you Kali! And the rest of the 209 staff for keeping me lit. read more

I bought the flower Cru-XJ-13 Hybrid and I loved it! It was 27 percent and it was a great high. Was very productive and overall in a great mood. read more

If I could give this place zero stars I would ! I asked the bud tender for two grams of wax and a pack of baby jesters, when I went to the car and looked into my bag and opened a gram of wax the sealed packaging was already broke so I instantly tried to go back into authentic and tried to exchange for a new gram and since it was 30 minutes before closing they asked me to come back tomorrow morning! read more

Terrible service. Whole store full of people and every single employee is working on online pick up orders. Should have extra ppl here to worry about online and employees in store to worry about in store customers. Probably last time I'll come here: been in line for over 25mins just watching employees work on online orders. Smh read more

Always friendly and they have a good selection, I like this place because typically when I go there it's not too busy. They also have a point system which is pretty cool. read more

Always a pleasure coming here. Friendly and lovely staff. Security keepin it real too. Keep it up guys! Will return indefinitely.

Fast friendly service, big beautiful sales room, great prices, excellent selection. I HIGHLY recommend.

Nice clean new favorite spot they got a good selection and prices are good for the brands they carry

I love this club friendly staff amazing people security and all I just feel like there should be a express line like pcf because I got in know what I want every time and it just takes days because people like to be picky. But other than the slight wait I recommend this club read more

Last time I went here was a few months ago and I plan to go back very soon. This dispensary is about an hour and a half away from me so I space out my visits and stock up. Compared to my city the prices cannot be beat as well as the quality. Marissa Helped me and was very knowledgeable about the product. She made a few suggestions on Stiiizy pods that I really enjoyed. Highly recommend this place. read more

This is my spot. I used to go to another place in Ceres that I thought was it but authentic209 has the same products I get and they have great promos like 30% off which is pretty much the weed tax and all the other taxes they put on it. So the price at the counter is usually the price out the door when I go. I also like that they aren't nazis about me being on my phone. They allow you to take photos inside the store of product which is helpful for me to identify products and look back on past purchases so I know what to rebuy. The gaurds are friendly and very respectful when I go, I read some other people had bad experiences with them , I know this place definitely deserves more then 1 and a half stars. This is the only cannabis club I'd even think to go to if I'm in Modesto. The prices are right and I get treated right here. The staff are all nice, the girls always start convos with me and are very friendly. I like trying new strains and products but I never know what's new or what's what , everytime I've asked for their recommendation on what to get, I've always ended up coming back to repurchase more. They definitely know their products and I recommend all my friends to come here. If you haven't been there yet, take this recommendation and check it out for yourself, you won't be disappointed. read more

One of my favorite places in town. Great price and great staff! It is a bigger shop i like how they have a line system helping with social distancing which some shops don't do. Also they have big counter spaces and plenty of employees so you never fell crowded by other customers. The vibe is nice also and they do play music but i don't mind it makes it nice while i wait my turn. Only downside is we don't have two in town sometimes the lines outside are long. read more

I was treated horribly here. I asked to talk to the manager and she never came outside. I was taughted by their security guards.

The facility is nice and clean but the product can be dry. I witnessed a customer trying to return a faulty item the customer was called a liar and didn't get any refund or replacement on an item that was literally leaking,really makes me think about giving my business to a place like this. It seems like the coworkers or mangers don't communicate well with their employees, they're rude telling them things on the spot with an attitude regardless who's watching. read more

Never returning. I go in one day and purchase a couple 8ths and I was pretty stoked on them since the bud tender was talking them up . Little did I know I was skimped. One of the 8ths weighed out to only 2.9gs when it's clearly stated on the jar 3.5gs. That's a .6g DIFFERENCE. I WOULD ADVISE EVERYONE WHO PURCHASES BUD FROM THIS DISPENSARY TO DOUBLE CHECK AND WEIGH YOUR SACKS. Stay lit my friends. read more

They were not accepting my friends green card which has valid date and everything. When asked why she said we just don't accept green card

Prices are unbeatable and I had the pleasure of getting served by Lauren her customer services was excellent!!! Highly recommend!

Sells defective accessories and doesn't even replace them even though you have a receipt, this place just steals your money and then act dumb read more

This used to be a good spot to go to because they offer curbside pick up. But as of lately they really are not that great. I'm a disabled patient that's a full time single father so getting my medication isn't always the most convenient so I usually have a friend go for me. Last night I had the opportunity after the weather cooled down to place a curbside order. I'm fully aware of their policy of no online orders after 9pm because they'll cancel the order so i placed my order at 8:56pm. I got the confirmation text my order was being prepared shortly after. At 9:40 I decided to head over to wait for my order to be ready. At 9:43 I got a text saying my order was canceled because I didn't show up is exactly what it said. I called to see what was happening. The girl who answered the phone stated they closed at 9:30 because they were busy I explained my order was placed before they 9pm like their policy dictates and I was about to pull up, she said it doesn't matter "they were too busy" so they closed early and no more curbside pick ups after 9:50. I told her just 2 weeks ago I was able to do a curbside order before 9pm I got the order was ready text at almost 9:30 waited over 25 mins out front after one security guard told them I was there I watched the guard with all the tattoos start to close up the gate to the doors he came up to my car and asked if I had been helped I told him I been here over 20 mins waiting after the other guy told them I was there to have my order completed by 9:58pm she literally said it's different day to day. So I went without my medication because "they were too busy" read more

Reading some of these reviews I am actually shocked. I had a wonderful experience at this place. Staff was friendly and very helpful and took the time to answer all of my questions. Maybe they got a new security guard, cause the one I interacted with super proffessional and courteous. I felt very safe. Me and my boyfriend were also super stoked with the product. Will definitely be back. read more

I've gone to this shop multiple times and haven't had a bad experience yet! All the bud tenders are really friendly and know their stuff. You can't beat the prices. All prices have the taxes included. One of my favorite shops in Modesto! Highly recommend. read more
