She's moving…read morehere from Oklahoma City and the items stocked between our local stores and what she is used to are a little different. One of the things she had to have is Raymundo's sugar free gelatin. Afer using the mobile app I was able to find the item in two stores. Urbandale and Mills Civic. The app even told us where to find it... Aisle 20 South. Aisle 20 doesn't have a sign on it, but there is a refrigerated section on the other side of aisle 19. After about three back and forths we couldn't find the Raymundos. I grabbed a younger gentleman who was kind of over by the meat counter and asked if he could help us. He had to go check a couple of things but came back after a few minutes. He walked with us and was able to find the item... We bought all of it. Lol While I wish the app had been a little more helpful and listed a "bay" like the Home Depot app... I have to drop four stars here just because of the customer service we received if nothing else! Thanks Hy-Vee! Glad we were able to find our helpful smile tonight...

This is a pretty expensive grocery store…read more We used to stop to eat at the prepared food section but it has really gone downhill as of late. You are better off in the restaurant where they cook food to order. We have had good luck with breakfast. We just don't bother much since it takes too much time and we need to get on the road to our destination.

Their Hot Bar buffet options are so good that we visit here for dinner or lunch, and love the number of options available. You can eat so healthy here at a good price, and there are eating acommodations towards the front of the store. There is a such a comfy vibe throughout the store, and the aisles are full of items that you cannot find in many other spots.

I've been spending a lot of time lately in this area of Urbandale and have stopped at this Fareway…read moreseveral times now. It's a pretty standard Fareway as far as what it offers for groceries. It's clean and like most other Fareways I've found the staff to be great tof work with when I've had to ask for help. Special shout out to Wyatt who helped me as a cashier one evening. He's sure grown up a lot since I had him in Scouts!

I went in to get pies for Thanksgiving. I didn't think to check the dates until I got home, 3 of…read morethe 4 pies sell by date was the 22nd, the day I got them. When I went back in to exchange, at first they were kind and told me to go and grab what I needed. Then the night manager came out and the only thing he said to me was that one of the pies dates was okay.... Not a sorry, nothing. It happens I know, but I felt like the customer service I received was disheartening.

This is my local Fareway!…read more Yes it's a little smaller than other stores, but they moved into an existing space. It wasn't built originally as a grocery store. The staff is always helpful and the store is consistently clean. I love the business model that allows their associates a little work life balance that many retailers don't take into consideration. The carry out service is still old school, but service is also evolving with self checkout and mobile ordering and pick up as well.

I stopped into Wang's last night for the first time. I found the market to be a little cluttered,…read morebut clean. The items in stock were plentiful for a smaller store. I walked out with some frozen pork lumpia, frozen kimbap, frozen Korean cheese corn dog, and some Nongshim gochujang shrimp crackers. My total was $36 and change. Some items were $1 or so above MSRP and some were $1 below according to Google. In line for a smaller market that doesn't order/carry huge quantities. Parking is easy with a them being in a business strip with a large lot. The owners were polite and courteous. I was greeted when I walked in and thanked when I left. She even threw in a couple of free small boxed milk drinks for paying with cash... It's nice to have for convenience here on the West side when you don't want to make the drive to C Fresh, Double Dragon, or Golden Land. And yes... In the past my inner child has had a field day with the name. Just like A Dong... But that's just me I'm betting. Lol

I called the store and they couldn't transfer me, I had to call the pharmacy's number which I would have done to begin with but that's not what google gave me when I searched for their pharmacy #.

Well try again on Friday. they start vaccinating tomorrow. Just keep trying is what I was told several times. Poof it's going to magically appear is what it sounded like to me. I called the 60th street pharmacy and their staff seems to know what is going on. So pick your pharmacy accordingly.

So yummy!! Can't wait to try more treats from this shop.

I'm so glad I did, too, because I found a candy bar that I had been looking for for many years that I saw at another store that stopped carrying it. When I walked in, I was greeted by a friendly man behind the counter. He was extremely nice and helpful when I asked him questions about some different candies that I saw that had foreign writing on them. There was a whole aisle with candy in it. I couldn't believe my luck. There's something about foreign candies that I just find very appealing. They're unusual and have different flavors and textures than American candies do. I wanted to try them all. There wasn't just candies, though. There were also shelves with sauces, spices, dried pastas and more. There was also a small drink section and a frozen section with frozen foods available. The man said the store has been open since April. It wasn't very busy when I was there. I would love to see the store crowded with shoppers, if only to ensure that the store stays around for a long time so I can get my candy fix. The prices are very reasonable and the service is outstanding. The store is very clean and modern looking. The man spoke perfect English so we understood each other perfectly. I bought my first Dubai chocolate bar and it was wonderful. I'm going to have to stop by this store often. Please show this place some love.
