Two stars for being a "health food" super market in a town that isn't all that enlightened…read moreregarding the subject. I grew up in San Diego and got to witness Sprouts from the beginning. First it was Boney's, when things were on wire shelves like an old school co-op, then it became Henry's, and eventually Sprouts like it is today. Except back in the 90s, they made their own hummus in house, as well as a number of other items. Btw their hummus was the best, and I've had it all over the world. Fast forward to the mid 2000s and I lived in LA, where there was a Sprouts, a Trader Joe's, and a World Foods all within a short distance from one another. Sprouts had changed, but I could still get most of what I needed there. I only went to the other places for specific things, but Sprouts was my go-to. However they stopped making a lot of things in house, their deli sandwich were pitiful and expensive, and some of my old fav items were no longer there. Fast forward another however many years, and it's the only health food place in town. I don't know what changed, but it's different. The prices are a lot higher compared to what they were vs. mainstream and other health food stores. Probably the "Lodi Tax". They don't seem to have as much variety. And the ready made, microwave at home dishes are paired down to a limited variety, and are super expensive. Now there's the deli. They have this butternut squash dish. But they cook it with onions, garlic, and peppers. Not at all the flavor profile that goes with that squash. I couldn't eat it. Had to throw it out. Even my less picky friend spat it out. Why no cinnamon and nutmeg? Everyone likes that, and expects it. Then there's the deli meat. I have sometimes been able to find real sliced roasted turkey breast. Not the slimy stuff that you get pre packaged that is basically all the garbage parts of the bird blended up and poured into a mold with added water and sodium like pretty much all lunch meat. I mean real turkey breast. I know they have it. But depending on who is behind the counter, you either get someone who knows the difference (not hard to tell, just look!) and will happily help you out. Or you get someone who is clearly not happy to be there and doesn't want to put in the effort to just look, and will rather argue with you and pretend to not know what you are talking about. Which leads me to the whole processed lunch meat thing. If you look in the deli window at what claims to be 100% turkey breast, and is in the shape, and is as big as an actual turkey (or maybe a large chicken), and you slice it, and it is slimy and has tiny bubbles and no muscle grain in it, it is not an actual turkey breast. The turkey would have to be the size of an ostrich to have a breast that big and uniform, and you would have to be a very unobservant, or very lazy person to not know the difference when asked for real roasted turkey breast deli meat, despite what the manufacturer labels it as. So because of the shrinkage in items and the ongoing battle with the deli counter, and the skyrocketing prices, I kinda just stopped going here. Honestly, for a single bag of groceries here, I can get three at TJ's if I take the journey to Stockton. Yeah they don't even have a deli. So I guess sandwiches are out for me. But I'm saving money and getting better food items by avoiding this place. Sad to say it, but they gotta do better, and they need better people working there.

They do have a larger organic vegetable section than probably any store in the area but because of the prices, I don't typically shop here. The service is fine, usually chattier and slower and I understand some people like that unctuous way but I prefer faster and more efficient. They recently had a sale which caused me to shop here for a few weeks in a row and it was worth it for the deal, but due to the limited selection, I would not make this my regular store.

I found some great Roma tomatoes. The meat section was lacking a bit of variety; however I don't expect them to be a butcher shop. The remaining aisles were well stocked and clean; I even found an employee sweeping the area. My checkout was fast and painless. There were plenty of cashiers but I chose to do the self checkout. The assistant for this area was so pleasant and helpful! I apologize for not remembering her name but thanks for doing such a great job! In conclusion, I recommend this Food for Less location for your everyday grocery needs

The last thing a customer wants is to take home something that is bad. I tried to salvage small bites atleast but there isn't any areas that aren't black so this was a complete waste of $3.99. I believe that is what it costs. I was asked if I wanted my receipt and I said no it wasn't necessary because I didn't plan on needing to return it. I'm out of luck and I'm out pocket now. So be aware of what you decide to purchase.

Not sure if it was a supermarket before also but the space is quite large. You've got everything in it like other Grocery Outlet stores. I saw a good meat cold case, lots of snacks esp chips and cookies which are my go-to's, I checked out the freezer aisle and saw a good amount of ice cream and popsicles for the hot days this summer. All in all, this is a solid store with lots of selections and the prices were the same or better than other grocery outlet stores as they had a special 99c section of their clearance items and they had other specials throughout the store too. Specifically, I got me some rice paper for spring rolls and some peanut butter which is a big stable at my house for protein balls and of course PBJ sandwiches for the kiddos when they need some quick energy on the go.
