    Frozen pizza
    Tracy K.

    First time at a grocery outlet because I was curious what they had. From what I saw, it was discounted groceries that expire very soon or within the year. Some groceries had already expired and were still on the shelves. I came on a Wednesday evening and the workers were stocking the shelves. A lot of the workers looked very young , but were helpful when I asked for something. I like the different choices they had including vegan options. I got frozen vegan pizza that was decently priced. One brand was 2 for $10, and the other brand was one $7.99. I wasn't too impressed with their milk section since the only nut milks were flavored milk or creamer. The parking lot was pretty big. People came and went. Don't forget to download the app for discounts and points. I would be back again to see what else they have the next time I come here.

    Unfortunately, I hate writing bad reviews about places I'm going to go back to. I just moved to this town like two months ago and it's the most awful experience I've had in a long time. I don't know why every Mexican person down here seems to be a criminal every time they enter some venue. Take for instance grocery outlet on Live Oak. I love grocery outlet I go to every single grocery outlet. I possibly go to because they're very inexpensive. Fortunately, there's been three consecutive times where I've come into this particular location and I've been harassed by the people who work there for thinking that I'm going to steal something when I never do I don't steal. I don't steal OK. Not only that I probably make at least three times more than you guys that's besides the point it's just so sad that I can't feel comfortable in this town around all these rude people and at least there should be a little bastion of hope at the grocery outlet where people you know That don't have a lot of money. Go to buy stuff. Shame on you guys dude stop harassing me. Yes, I'm dictating this so I'm not and I'm not going to AutoCorrect it . Attach a picture of me next time you see me can you not harass me cause I'm not in there to steal anything please !

    All good things must come to an end. This place is in free fall towards an inevitable permanent closure. A few months ago, the previous independent owner of this Grocery Outlet who was an awesome guy, sold, left, and took his outstanding staff with him. It was immediately evident they were gone, largely because that manager and his assistant manager were ALWAYS on the floor, interacting with customers, building relationships, ensuring a quality experience. I NEVER made it out of the store without one or both of them smiling and saying hello. Cashiers engaged with you like Trader Joe's; asked you about your day, made small talk while quickly and efficiently moving the line. My former five-star review wasn't just for kicks-- this store USED to be a breath of fresh air in a location that couldn't hold a tenant for more than six months before shuttering. I've never met the new manager. I've never seen her/him as far as I know. While there are a couple of nice high school kids working the front end, the balance of cashiers give you the stink eye. It would seem they have been told not to smile, but to make me feel bad about asking for bags, or for interrupting their work day with my patronage. Prices have gone through the roof-- on par with Albertson's across the street-- while selection and quality has free fallen. Strawberries? They're one of the first things you see when you walk in the store but they're ALWAYS rotten and moldy on the bottom now-- Always. Grocery Outlet's business model is to offer things that are cheaper because they're closer to expiration dates or overstocks, but the selection here now has really declined, and prices are higher than ever. Since they have no loss leaders, everything seems to be marked up, and then camouflaged by providing the "price at other stores" -- HAHA, no, Vons doesn't charge $15 for canola oil, kids. Unknown, micro-niche high-end truffle pasta sauce next to bargain-brand no-name crap, and nothing in between like they used to stock. Rubbery broccoli, spoiled sprouts and rotten spinach in the bag, bruised apples, and flaccid celery. Frozen section prices are the same or higher than other chain supermarkets. Meat selection is a joke. If I wanted to pay $20 for a bagged corned beef or $8.99 for a single serving of farm-raised color-added salmon, I can do that at Ralph's and be better assured it won't smell like the penguin enclosure at the Santa Barbara zoo when I unwrap it. For the last several months, the high school employees move into the aisles for the last two hours of their day, ostensibly restocking/refacing while utterly blocking passage with all sorts of boxes, and filling the store with their personal conversations rife with foul language and inappropriate topics. Really, customers don't want to hear the intimate details of your relationship, sweetie. Arrived at the store tonight at 9:25 (posted hours say 10 PM) and the automatic door didn't open. The door had broken before, so we opened it manually, and walked inside, got a cart to try our luck. One of the young ladies who works there--arguably the ONLY one who has been friendly, helpful, and professional since ownership changed--informed us that the store was closed. She explained that "only for this month" the store would be closing at nine. This isn't posted, and the door wasn't locked, but OK. We walked out, and it will be the last time. I can't imagine many of the former customers who were so glad when Grocery Outlet first opened here are still coming. Maybe that's why they're closing early? Without a complete turnaround, profound management changes, or a new buyer altogether, this place will be done soon, and join a long list of previous companies that tried and failed at this building. And for the record, I am REALLY BUMMED about this-- this neighborhood celebrated having a great locally owned community market when it first opened. That's over now.

    Does anybody remember a few years ago where they had muppet type characters doing the commercials for them? That leads me to affectionately call them the Fake Muppet Market-- because surely Jim Henson or Disney did not take too kindly to them using the hand puppet muppets to advertise groceries. Or else they didn't get compensated for the tribute. Anyhoo... this is an interesting funky chain where you can find one-of-a-kind items that maybe the giant retailer grocers think are too specialty or perhaps they over-stocked, but you can also find some regular items that only Grocery Outlet carries, you cannot find at your regular supermarket. It's usually best to expect your shop time to be much longer than you want, because you keep running into interesting things you've never seen before. It's called the Fake Muppet Market time warp, don't sweat it. Thanks to this chain, I've tried out a myriad of snack products, because they looked exotic and gourmet and bonus, were deep discounted. And most often they turn out to be really really tasty, and then because they're one-off or seasonal things, I never find them again. Anyway, I've been to various ones around the golden state, and they all have produce, dairy, dry goods, household stuff, but also, each store has its unique vibe and thing going for it. This is a great little outpost of the Grocery Outlet Bargain Market company in the SGV. If you ask moi, Miss Figgy approves.

    Oh, the stuff you find.

    Some time ago, I didn't know what Grocery Outlet was. Hearing the name, I thought it was a place selling unwanted produce and items. But a couple of foodie groups I'm in on social media had people posting their findings at these stores. So curiously, I went to check them out. I came across a lot of brand names products with limited editions that I don't see at any other markets. This is especially true for ice cream. Their selections change often, and that keeps me going back to find new things to try. Other things I've scored are Wonderful Pistachios, snacks, cookies, drinks and even coffee, all of which are sometimes less than 1/2 of the price at a market a few minutes away. GO stores are independently owned and don't always carry the same items. At times, they're priced differently, depending on the neighborhood. But I find coming to the stores is almost like a treasure hunt. Sometimes I walk out with nothing. But many times I come home with a few new flavors of ice cream that I haven't seen before, and the whole family is happy.

    Spices, marinades, nutritional yeast!

    Love the GO! Unique variety of items makes shopping here really fun. Great prices on natural and organic food. Usually low prices on ground beef compared to other retailers. Their steelhead trout looks fresher than the ones at my local supermarket too. Found Abe's muffins the other day: pack of 6 was only $2.50, so a dozen would be $5. Ralphs or Vons will sell a dozen of Abe's for $7!!!!! I only get Abe's when they're at the GO now. Can't believe the high prices at other places. Large parking lot, not hard to find a spot over the weekend.

    Brand new Grocery Outlet location! We wanted to visit as it was new and I had a coupon for signing up for their rewards. We love GO because they have great deals and a good selection of groceries. Each location is locally owned and operated. The store itself is newly remodeled and fully stocked with lots of variety. Brand new carts are super easy to control and clean! The aisles are wide and comfortable. The layout is a bit different than other Grocery Outlets as you are directed to go right instead of left as you enter the store. They have a great produce section, kitchen utensils, food staples, snacks and a big beer & wine section. They had 3 open cashiers that made check out quick and smooth. We saw lots of workers around to help customers with questions and keeping things organized. Parking is plentiful as it has its own parking lot. Recommended!

    Food Selection: 4/5 Prices: 3/5…read moreLook & Feel: 2/5 Overall: 3/5 stars So there's no doubt this is a huge market, but walking into the store was like walking back in time - somewhere in the early 90s, but no one did any renovation or upgrades in many parts of the market. It's really, really, REALLY rundown looking. The refrigeration systems and the shelves look fairly dated. But their overall stock is full here and there's staff walking around restocking and even watching you while you walk through. There's definitely a good variety of ingredients and brands I didn't really recognize, so they carry a lot of things. The prices on many items here were like conveinence store prices, but maybe it's like that for the the city and area. So lots of selection, but absolutely not much of a vibe here - just shop and that's it. They do play Cantonese and Mandarin songs on the speaker system, so that's kind of cool. Parking can be tight if you come here during a busy hour.

    Review #904 2025-#078…read more I discovered Good Fortune Supermarket because it shares parking with Yi Mei (refer to Review #903). I had some time to kill before having brunch with my brother, so my son & I browsed the supermarket to see if there's any goods that are interesting or a good deal. The market is well-stocked & organized, but the floors are dingy & screams for a deep clean. Yikes! Though the items on the shelves look like there's been turnaround since they're not dusty. Whew! =) Its offerings are similar to the local Asian markets, with a little less variety at slightly higher prices. The fresh fruits were absurdly pricey IMO, but there were a few "sales" though they're still higher than regular pricing elsewhere. Since we're over an hour from home, I only picked up some snacks like roasted peanuts (I love the Farmer Brand!), fermented hawthorn, & some biscuits. The cashiers were friendly... asked if I found everything I needed, & also greeted my son & asked if hawthorn is his favorite treat. While I didn't have any 好運氣 (good fortune) in finding any deals, I get some yummy treats for my 6 YO to nosh on while waiting for my brother. I prefer the Main St. location in Alhambra, but they've been temporarily closed since 09/2024; I usually shop there when I'm in the area because of the eateries nearby. I don't think I'll be making any return trips unless I'm dining next door.
