I've started coming to this grocery store more often when I'm in Citrus Heights. It's reliable, the produce is fresh, and the store is easy to navigate. It's not overly crowded and the staff always seems friendly. read more

Foodmaxx always have a great selection of produce. I also appreciated the kind, red-haired young man who was able to show me where some items were. Great customer service. read more

This place is fantastic! The produce and fruit are fresh and at a great price! The employees are friendly and busy stocking and keeping things clean. Overall prices are better than other places. Really like this store! read more

Came here late last night looking for Chamoy (and because I was in the neighborhood), and found so much more than that. First of all, yes, I hit the Chamoy jackpot. They had regular and mega Chamoy in small and large bottles (the small was on sale for only $1, and the large was under $2), as well as Tajin Chamoy, and multiple sizes of Tajin, too. Wish I would have come here first. The only thing I was looking for that I didn't find was Tajin-coated gummy bears. I used to shop here all the time, way back when I lived in my first apartment alone, right around the corner from this store. Back then, I think they were open 24 hours. I used to always shop here for things like carne asada, yogurt (they still carry my favorite pina colada kefir), fruit cups, cereal, granola bars, and tres leches cake (the award winning diet of a 21 year old finally living on her own). Their tres leches cake is super legit, and tastes more like it comes from a Mexican bakery than from a grocery store. The inside of the store is fairly clean and well-organized, given the price range. The parking lot is another story. If I wrote about some of the things I've seen in this parking lot, I would have to drop stars from my rating. A few weeks after my little sister had her first baby, I brought her shopping here. She picked out groceries while I carried him around the produce section. Some lady was asking me questions like, "How old is your baby? How much does he weigh?" and I irritated my sister by answering the questions as if he were my own baby. As my little sister pulled her son out of my arms, she said, "Get your own baby, (censored)!" It's been an inside joke between us for about sixteen years now. "Get your own baby, (censored)!" As I walked through the produce area where this all of took place, the memory hit me so hard that I almost started laughing out loud. Anyway, the produce section looked very clean and fresh, and the prices were about the same as Winco, or lower. Even though the store is on the smaller side, they carry a decent selection of products that can be hard to find elsewhere. I may have to start shopping here more often. Or, at least, whenever I run out of Chamoy. read more

Workers here are super rude. The checkout line is always long and slow moving. I live close but the only time ever go here is if I'm in a hurry or not wanting to drive far. Most of the time I'd much rather go elsewhere even if it's a bit longer drive from my house. read more

I'm a long time customer of Foodmaxx. Why has it been so hot in your store lately? When I come in to shop, I don't expect it to be just as hot inside as outside the store. I have health concerns and I cannot take the heat. So, please fix this problem. Until then I will not be shopping in your store. read more

I called every FoodMaxx store in my area, and this is the only store that did not answer the phone for any menu option button. I just wanted to know if they had the specific meat that keeps being out of stock so that I could know before I drive all the way there. Guess I'll stick to the location that so kindly answered the phone on winding way. It only took a few seconds for them to answer my question about item stock check. read more

Attentive service at great prices but what is better is that professional, prompt service from personnel. I returned a Foster Farms whole chicken with no problem and got a full refund from Mike, one of the store managers who came promptly after being called by another employee who I approached with my concern. Excellent service always has me returning to this store! read more

"FoodMaxx take it to the max, to maximize your shopping I want FoodMaxx!" Lol I have that song down, it's catchy! On the 20th of this month I stopped in to finally check it out for myself, I gotta say you really stretch your dollar here, I was just blown away by all the amazing deals I found! For example I purchased some rolls for $0.98 and it came with 6 rolls, just wow, they made a great addition to some delicious pulled pork sandwiches! I also found some bowls with straws that I remember were awesome as a kid for slurping ice cream when it turned to liquid or cereal milk, I was Cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs that made chocolate milk! I was lucky enough to purchase the last 8 they had! Lastly I purchased an 8 pk of mini Kellogg's Cereal boxes, both the bowls and cereal made a great addition to the party favors for my daughter's 2nd birthday party! I would highly recommend shopping at this location, the staff were very friendly and helpful with finding items since it was my first time in and I know I'll come back for more great deals! read more

This area has needed a Foodmaxxx for q long tume. The. Produce is the best value in town same with the meat. The fresh departments are much better than Winco. There is low prices across the board and great staff. Keep ip the good work Foodmaxx read more

We stopped in to return a Redbox movie since we were in the area. It had been over ten years since my last visit and the store hasn't changed much. It's similar to Winco but smaller with not as much inventory. The prices were good and competitive with Winco on most sale items. Like for instance, on this trip I found asparagus for $1.49 a lb. I did have to select carefully as it wasn't as fresh. The same could be said for a lot of their produce. Their zucchinis were $ .69 a lb but they were kinda old and not as fresh as what I would find at Sprouts, Winco or WalMart. There were some good buys though, like three boxes of Kellogg's cereal for $5 and twelve pack of Firestone beer for $13.99, regular $18.99. I only know this because I acquired a taste for the Firestone 805, when I purchased a six pack on sale @Sprouts for $7.99. Also I saw that they sell small bottles of Sriracha for $1.45 when I bought the same bottle for $1.76 @Walmart. The store was clean and organized when I visited and I still would probably come here if I had a choice of FoodMax vs Raley's or Safeway. read more

Come here all the time with my mom to do grocery shopping. We never had a problem shopping. Always had a good experience while shopping here. We manage to find everything we need to get. read more

I rarely shop here, it's just the closest place. I was out of water and milk this morning so I stopped in to get some of both. These guys may have good prices on some things but half gallon of milk is $.50 higher here than Winco. Probably worth the $.50 just to not have to drive all the way to Winco. But milk should be more competitive pricewise. read more

I was absolutely appalled by the treatment that I got from the manager this morning at 6 am. I asked him very politely if I could take some boxes off his hands for moving purposes and he pretty much told me to go fuck myself looking away not making eye contact as he is sitting down on the handicap electric cart not doing a damn thing. They compact them and throw them away. I've been a customer of theirs for 3 years, I will not be shopping there again. Absolutely disgusted by the the lack of customer service. read more

This store is the dirtiest grocery I've even been in. I went in earlier today for 1 item, a 2 liter bottle of 7up and every single bottle on the shelf was sticky and had visible dust. Why would customers want to handle or carry soda bottles covered in sticky soda?! I had to go to the restroom to wash if off my hands. The restroom had trash on the floors and smelled bad. The lines were incredibly long and slow. I honestly think they have more check stands than employees smart enough to operate the registers. A couple times I've had nice interactions with employees at the registers, but the cleanliness of the store and slowness of lines isn't worth further returns. read more

We went here about 5 years ago and ALL the meat we got was rotten was opening. We didnt go for years and went ago last month in hope it would have been better. Checking the meat before putting in our cart and it was still expired ans green meat! I don't know where they get their supply, or how they keep their Temps but it's absolutely DISGUSTING how you can walk to meat section and point out spoiled and discolored meats. I don't see how anybody shops there, honestly. read more

This foodmaxx store was clean and set up for easy directions to all the dry food aisles with the refrigerated and frozen along the outside. The lines were quick and the customer service was friendly. Although I wish they had a bigger organic selection. read more

I could not find anyone on the floor to help me. There were only 3 cashiers working and the store was pretty busy. The restrooms are filled with trash all over the floors and the toilets are filthy.

I am a frequent customer as I have lived in area for 30 plus years... I'm usually in great acquaintance with the employees at this store. I went in to buy V8 and detergent. There was about 4 employees stocking its about 1130 am. There's 1 line to check out. I check out and notice pot pies on sale and went to get one and went back to check out the line was so long now I didn't want wait so I put pie back and went to exit. The person stocking candy yelled you not gonna pay. I continue walking not thinking she talking to me. She then says you just gonna steal that. I look back and see she's referring to me. I go to her and say that's rude I paid and show her my receipt. She says people steal everyday! I say I'm not one. My receipt and items are visibly in hand I have no bag. She says where what you picked up over there, referring to the pie. Instead of apologizing she further accused me... Ashley was horrible and disrespectful.. I'm elderly with no bag and a receipt THE accusations were unwarranted. Ashley proved to be ignorant and unworthy of working in customer service...Especially at a Neighborhood grocery store. She was loud and combative while I spoke to her calmly. She never apologized she was ridiculously rude. Worst store visit in 30 years. Even if she has poor customer service there was no way she should be disrespectful to her elder. Ashley was disgusting . Whole experience would have been avoided if she was focused on stocking instead of playing security...very disturbed by this . read more

OMG I only came here to see what it was all about since I saw a commercial on TV saying they were cheaper than Win Co. They were NOT. The store was dirty and laid out kinda like a WinCo but smaller and with WAY less selection than I am accustomed to. A few of the staple items I always get were quite a bit higher here than Win Co or Walmart! Del Monte Spaghetti sauce was $1.18 here regularly and regularly at WinCo and Walmart only $.87 was just one example. I bought a few things but didn't get much as I got more upset and just went to Sams on the way home for the other stuff. Don't waste your time I have already done that for you. I had to drive quite a ways to get here too, so it was totally not worth it. read more

They charge 4 bags for $1 I have no idea why they're exceptional from california's 0.10 a bag law does anybody know?

If i could give this place no stars i would , i have never been to a grocery store that literally has flies growing in the food . There were flies everywhere in the produce section it was the tomatoes , corn , nectarines i could go on and on. the produce was old and rotten yet no one seemed to care and remove it from the shelf .i will never come here again if they have flies in the food you are buying imagine what else they have. read more

When I inexplicably run out of something, I usually run to safeway. That's not because I'm a grocery store snob. (Well, maybe I am, I just like Sprouts and Safeway better.) It's because this place is a hole! Sure their prices on things like canned goods are crazy good, but the lines are so damn long, there are times where I just want to throw up my hands, toss down my one item and storm out the door. It's nuts. I hate this store. For me, it's a step above grocery outlet, and a step below win co....i'd rather go to wal-mart. ugh read more

Everything is fresh and prices are great. The store was clean, well faced, and nothing too much out of place. The selections for every department were pretty good, with good stock too. The checker was nice and quick with checking out my order. I had to knock them down a star because the stipulations for their bigger sales are not printed in a very big font and not able to be seen very well. The sign was huge for the sale price but little did I know when I got to the register and it rang up at the normal price that I was supposed to purchase 3. Wish they would fix that but I still recommend for everything else, just pay VERY close attention to how much you have to purchase. read more

Great prices and the quality was there as well. I was surprised by the variety of each item and was happy to find organic milk. It's always nice to have the option to buy higher quality or lower-priced items in the same store! Bought some jalapeño bread from the bakery and it was gone the same day! Delicious thank you :) read more

Every time I go in there are several employees without masks or wearing them incorrectly. In addition there are usually between 2-5 customers without masks and no social distancing. Two weeks ago all staff were sent home to quarantine and staff from other stores covered the store but nothing was posted for customers to know this. Now regular staff has returned and they still don't wear masks. Do not recommend unless your an "antimasker". Cuz your "rights" "trump" public health and safety! read more

This is the closest grocery store to my house. Last night I stopped in around 9pm for last minute items. Jonathan (cashier) and Heather were talking and laughing loudly about getting waxed and hygiene etc. It was very uncomfortable and they talked without greeting customers or acknowledging their presence. As I was checking out I was not even addressed or looked at. It's almost as if they made it a point to ignore customers, perhaps because it was later in the evening. Despite the late hour, I would think a business would continue to operate in a professional manner. read more

I shopped around for a few hour and found deals everywhere i looked. Even the clerks and managers were upselling on deals. I walked away with more produce and meat to support my family (Thank god for freezers lol). Even bulk ice cream was a steal with fancy stuff or tubs. literally blown away by this because its so small of a store. bakery looked good but i have to watch my stomach lol. i will come back since i live right around the corner and just moved in. the big guy helped me find stuff and the checkers were superb! read more

No improvement to the long lines since last review. Your time here is just not valued. There is a new creepy security guard that takes peoples pictures. Caught him leering at my niece.

Grocery store with a decent selection of food items and other related items. Prices are not as good as they used to be. Visited about a week ago and mentally checked prices on several things I normally buy. Milk, yogurt, sodas and breads were higher. Snacks like chips and Doritos seemed high. 3.99 v. About $2.50 if you buy on sale at larger grocery stores. Kinda sketchy at night. Parking lot has some homeless. Haven't been asked for money in a while. They do have an express lane but stops at 8pm. read more

I've come in to this store about 2 times because I happened to be going by it and figured I'd stop in. I don't like it. At all. I think it could be cleaner, their employees could be nicer and their prices could be better. Seriously, their prices aren't anything special as far as I am concerned. Maybe they are cheaper than other places on crappy items and junk food I don't use but I didn't see prices that impressed me. Last time I was there I asked an employee if he could look up a price for me because everything else was marked except for this particular food item and they just came up with a random price. I asked him again if he could find out the exact price and while huffing and puffing he took off to find out. When he came back and told me the price, it wasn't even close to the price he had made up before and he just seemed so annoyed. Was he annoyed for having to do his job? Don't know, don't really care because I have no plans to become a regular. I'll probably stop in for things I absolutely need if I happen to be driving by there but that's it. read more

One word: Ick. I went here ONCE because I was driving by and only needed to pick up a few (canned) things. Never again. The clientele, let's not even start. The "organization", if we can call it that, was atrocious. There is no rhyme or reason to what they put on which aisles, and they don't really label the aisles (only 3 items from each aisle, but since they are unrelated, you get things like "Cereal, Fruit Snacks, Plastic Bags-WTF??). I walked around for 10 mins trying to find canned corn. Really, no sign for canned vegetables? I found it on the aisle marked "Beans." Also, the way it's laid out is asinine and only benefits the business. You HAVE to walk around the whole place to get from the entrance to the exit. No thanks. I am only giving it 2 stars because it was, indeed, dirt cheap, and I like the way they mark items under $1 with blue tags so they stand out. Still not worth it to me, though. If you're looking for cheap groceries, my money's at WinCo or Groc Out. Neat, clean, organized, and you don't feel like you're gonna get mugged. What Can I Get For 4 Bucks?: Pretty much anything in the store. Bought a large jar of Pace, squeezable sour cream, canned corn, refried beans, 20 tortillas, and spanish rice; the most expensive item was $3.29 (salsa). Total was about $9.50. read more

One star was me being nice. The only good thing is the people that work there are friendly and happy. The store is older but Always tidy. well that's about it... the rest UGH! Let me start with what irritates me most.... the lines.. Sooo slow and sooo long. No express! No three's a crowd. I hate going there for a gallon of milk and it takes 40 min. NO thank you. I am a busy mom. Price is a little less then some... more then others. No worth the wait. Produce is rock hard not ripe, or close to toss time. read more
