The QFC sushi counter is decent-- no complaints there. But I can't eat sushi every single day, and this place practically forces me to and I hate them for it. To be fair, this location is staffed with the friendly customer service folks who are always helpful; they keep the store clean and are quick to assist. The shelves are stocked neatly, and the staff is really deserving of praise. They're nice and all, but I don't go there for the excellent customer service-- I heavily rely on their deli area for breakfast or lunch, it is reliably bad. QFC's pre-packaged sandwiches are poorly made, contain a single slice of thin meat and a partial piece of cheese on the cheapest bread ever created by man. It's actually insulting considering the price. I'm not going to ask their bustling skeleton crew to stop and make me an on-demand sandwich, I want to grab and go. For a while, I thought if I just avoided the sandwiches, I'd have a better time. Nope! Lately, their refrigerated cases have been freezing the salads (literal iceberg lettuce) to the point where it is just completely inedible. ffs, I give up. The rest of the store is a typical shopping experience. I'm sure it's fine if you're buying shelf stable items or food actually meant to be frozen... Just check the expiration dates. QFC is a trash-tier grocery store in general regardless of location, you're better off going to Safeway or anywhere else if you can help it.

QFC used to be a local grocery chain. Then Kroger ate them (this was many years ago). QFC got a…read morelittle worse. Then Safeway ate Albertsons and QFC got a lot worse. Now Kroger is trying to eat Safeway, and QFC jumping the gun by preemptively taking a nose dive. For years, people called this store "the new QFC" because it was newer and nicer and shinier (and, imo, better-smelling) than the one a couple blocks over. We didn't know how good we had it then! This particular location used to be clean, well-organized, well-stocked, and appropriately staffed. Variety and quality of foods (especially produce) seems to have taken a downturn. Now, pick 2 of those at any given time and you'll be lucky. Less pharmacy hours, never anyone at the customer service desk, a giant bay of tiny u scans with one harried employee trying to deal with everyone's coupons, misweighed items, and produce with no stickers. Locked cases popping up all over the store, but only one or two employees in the entire store who can open them. Worse yet, a lot of the stuff in the cases doesn't have pricetags, so you just have to guess - not great for what are ostensibly some of the most expensive items in the building. Don't bother asking that employee who unlocked the case for you; they probably already have a gaggle of other customers following them around like the pied Piper, waiting for them to unlock some other case on the opposite side of the store. To be exceptionally clear in case some corporate scrooge reads this: none of this is the employees' fault, they are doing the best they can, and this is all clearly the consequence of corporate cost-cutting measures. I'd give it 3.5 stars because it's not the *worst* QFC on the eastside (I'd put it solidly above the 50th percentile, which says a lot about the state of the brand), and it's definitely still better than "the old QFC", but it's a marked downturn from what it used to be in years past (even post Kroger merge)

Stopped by this Safeway on Redmond Way while I was in the area. It's in a busy shopping center, but…read morethere's plenty of parking. The store was clean and organized, with a public restroom toward the back. The meat selection felt smaller than other Safeway locations, and there weren't many employees around if you needed help.

SAFEWAY @ REDMOND…read more Parking is available in a large plaza shared with other stores and restaurants, and there's plenty of free parking. I was easily able to find a spot right in front of Safeway, and there is also handicap parking available. I had never been to this Safeway location in Redmond before since I usually go to the Kirkland or Bellevue locations. This one was huge. Walking in, there was a giant sign saying they were hiring, and the store itself felt very spacious with so many aisles and a wide variety of items to choose from. I definitely think this Safeway has a much larger selection compared to other locations. They even had organic green onions, which I want to point out because every single time I go to the Kirkland location, they never have them. I really loved how much more this store had to offer. They also have both self-checkout and regular checkout lanes, which is always convenient. My only downside, and the reason I'd knock off a star was that there were a lot of workers restocking items right in the middle of the aisles. It was around 1 PM, and there were boxes everywhere, especially in the frozen aisle, making it difficult for people to get through. Restocking like that feels more like a nighttime or after-hours task, so it was a bit frustrating navigating around everything. Overall though, I would definitely recommend stopping by this Safeway. It's spacious, well-stocked, and I really loved the variety and the small deals they had going on, especially in the fruit section.

We had the opportunity to stop into the Redmond location on a Tuesday night, and found everything we were looking for. Founded in 1922, Fred Meyer became a part of Kroger in 1998, and has provided the superstore concept for a lot longer than either Walmart (1988) or Target (1995). It's very large, with this location even having an upstairs marked as Apparel (though it was closed off...wondering if it closes after a certain hour). The bank inside is Chase, and there is a Starbucks outlet. It has both an indoor and outdoor garden center (with its own entrance and super bored cashier). Because it is owned by Kroger, the grocery section has all the sales and product that a Kroger or Ralphs would have. Even though it has a different mobile app than its siblings, it uses the same login for easier cross connectivity. There are quite a few digital coupons that save a significant amount of money, so it is definitely worth getting and using.

Whole Foods is expensive so it's not my go to grocery store but for specific things I need, this location I can count on being a chill and nice experience.

GROCERY OUTLET BARGAIN MARKET @ KIRKLAND…read more Parking is available right out front, and it's open to all customers. Grocery Outlet is also located in a plaza, so you're able to walk to many different spots either before or after you shop. I've always really enjoyed how large this Grocery Outlet is, the space is huge, and they carry everything from clothing and food to fresh items, small essentials, and even appliances you might need. The staff is very friendly, and the prices are great, especially if you're looking for something affordable and within your budget. Overall, I had a great experience here and would highly recommend stopping by if you're looking for low prices, good quality items, and a wide selection. They don't have self-checkout, so you do go through the aisles, but the staff makes the process super easy and welcoming.

SAFEWAY @ KIRKLAND…read more This used to be one of my favorite Safeway locations in Washington! It's spacious, has great produce, and items. It has however changed over the time, the staff don't seem friendly, I've walked in a couple times and just been fully glared at by staff in the front. Bathrooms are dirty and it's pretty sticky floors. There is also workers smoking on the side of Safeway outside right by the Handicap, no issue with smoking, but they are ALWAYS lingering around where customers are walking to the car. There is also homeless people always out front where you enter 124th street. Other than that, the selection is great, there is a Starbucks in the store as well, and the produce is fresh. I really enjoy the bakery items, they are delicious and the workers are always kind there!

Moved my prescriptions from the pharmacy…read morebecause pharmacist called me a liar and said they answer the phone after I tried multiple times to call and couldn't even leave a message as did the CVS pharmacist and the Safeway pharmacist said I was wrong that they always answer their phone. Even the store's assistant manager said they don't answer their phone pharmacy's phone. Today, 7/3/26, there was a bag of two trays of chicken in my cart. I walked it back into the store and asked the gal standing at the exit to the self check and asked if she was a supervisor or manager. She wasn't even kind or smart enough to speak to me, she just pointed to customer service and pointed to a line of customers she wanted me to get into. I moved the cart closer to her and said, "I'm not waiting in that line" and walked away. My blood sugar was rapidly dropping and as I walked away I took 2 glucose tabs. She never did say a single word to me. There are only a couple of competent employees at this store and I only shop there because some of there prices are good. I have transferred ALL of my prescriptions to CVS where everyone is far more competent and friendly. I suggest you do the same. And, as for your groceries there's Fred Meyer, QFC, and Trader Joe's. Forget Safeway. And, I have been a Safeway customer for over 30 years while living in California, Arizona, Washington (multiple times).
