I have been shopping here for awhile, great selection of organic food. My last trip prompted this review, the manager Stacie went up beyond I have seen any manager do to correct an issue. She was beyond helpful and kind with our situation. Thank you for providing such incredible service and showing the consideration you did! read more

I didn't have time to make myself a smoothie during my 10-day detox and thought, 'oh, I bet Jimbo's has smoothies!' I don't frequent here but it's by my office and luckily, they make smoothies in their deli area! How awesome is that? Not only that, but you can customize a smoothie! I was able to drink a smoothie that aligned with my detox. I ended up coming here twice in a row. The only thing is it's a little slow in getting the ingredients together to make the smoothies in the morning. Allow yourself 30 minutes from order to check out. Also, as I was rung up my second time, the cashier gave me a stamp card for smoothies. I told her I was there yesterday and no one offered it to me, but she apologized and wouldn't be able to give me a 2nd stamp, but if I ever forget one, I can ask for a new card and they can combine the stamps. But nine smoothies, get the tenth free! The store is clean and similar to Sprouts or Whole Foods. They have a salad bar, ready-to-go food, and a bakery. read more

As everyone knows Jimbo's is way over priced on every item. Ever paid $16 for a small tub of guacamole? You will here. Is it good? Yes. Worth the price? No. My wife picked up a spicy tuna roll there for her lunch, for $13.99 which is $5.00 more than at any good sushi restaurant around. She ate one piece and could not take another bite. Every once in a while I pick up sushi at the Albertson's in Rancho Bernardo where we live, and pay $9.00- $13.00 depending on the roll and it is so much better. I got a turkey and gouda wrap for $13.98 and it was soggy and tasteless. Only thing I could taste was the sprouts in the wrap. Funny thing is the guacamole is the same price as a whole lemon pepper rotisserie chicken at Jimbo's. Having that chicken tonight for dinner, but not worried about that as I have a backup plan in case that is not good. This was my first and last time going to Jimbo's. Both my wife and myself are totally disappointed with our experience. Sorry Jimbo's but just speaking from our stomachs. read more

Great store. Came here on Sunday early morning for flowers and a cake. Found a beautiful bouquet, but no cake. There are only pieces of cake and cookies. Not sure if they bake cakes at all. Also noticed good selection of fruits and veggies. read more

This is another local small chain in California that offers natural, organic, and healthy grocery and lifestyle products. This one is in the 4S Commons plaza near Ace Hardware. You'll find a variety of items from allergy friendly grocery items, hot food, produce, and health supplements. Sometimes I've discovered healthier brands here that I would have never seen in a regular grocery store before. Prices can vary. I would say most of them are fair, but a few items can be a little on the pricier side. (Not quite Erewhon or Bristol Farms expensive, but a bit more than a Sprouts or Whole Foods.) Staff were quiet when I visited recently. Didn't interact with many of them during my visit, but no one was flat out rude or anything. There is usually ample parking whenever I've gone. Because it is shared with other businesses, I could see cases where it could get busy, but I suggest going when it's not a peak meal time. read more

Health freaks unite! I'm still a fan of Jimbo's, but it's a bit too pricey for my budget. I only treat myself here when I splurge--probably once a quarter. Jimbo's is located in a shopping center near ACE Hardware, Ralph's, and various eateries and businesses, making it a convenient spot. Customer service can be hit or miss. Sometimes, it takes a while for someone to show up at the hot food counter to help. The quality of the food is excellent. Gluten-free bread and organic, health-conscious options are abundant, making it a haven for those prioritizing clean eating. The groceries are top-notch and mostly organic, which explains the premium prices. While it's not the best place to stretch your dollar, you can trust that you're getting healthy, high-quality items. The shelves are always well-stocked, and I love the variety of raw foods and specialty products that you typically won't find anywhere else except online. They offer a salad bar, hot food counter, sandwich station (with great vegan options), juice/smoothie bar, and vegan-friendly desserts. Everything is clearly labeled for various dietary needs, which I really appreciate. Parking is plentiful during non-peak hours, so getting in and out is hassle-free. Overall, if this kind of lifestyle fits your budget, Jimbo's is worth a visit. I'd rate it 4 stars! read more

WoW ! Menu has changed over the years but still looks awesome ! Looking forward to trying the sandwich shown in the picture.

This review is specifically for the tiramisu cake slice. I saw this and thought to give it a try. It wasn't bad, but it definitely shouldn't be called a tiramisu cake. Coffee flavor is very light to nonexistent, and the cake itself is not reminiscent of lady fingers. It's more like a chocolate cake with a whipped cream filling. If you're expecting tiramisu, I would not recommend this. read more

Can you guys make your prices any higher? You are absolutely ridiculous! Something at Sprouts is double the price at your market. Your market is nothing special but a extremely over priced grocery store. You also do not take Snap? Probably because your food is so extremely over priced. read more

Excellent service at the meat department! Perfect meat and good prices. The store is very clean and well stocked too!

This is the best grocery store in California!! Thank you Jimbos for your high standards and providing a great shopping experience. I love jimbos because they don't carry GMOs and it makes grocery shopping a breeze. Great local produce is prioritized and the deli and food bar is outstanding. Staff is always welcoming and ready to help! The stores are always clean and well stocked. You can tell they take great pride in keeping it that way. read more

I have been shopping at Jimbos in 4 S Ranch for about 10 years. I love that all the produce is all organic and their homemade cold- pressed juices are delicious. The meat is excellent quality and they have a nice craft beer and wine selection. The shelves are always well- stocked and the staff is helpful and readily available to ask questions. It's always a pleasure to shop there! read more

Tyler in the produce section is a consummate angel!!! He always goes above and beyond to deliver exceptional service. One of my visits he offered to carefully handpick a pineapple for me, then he offered to slice it for me without me even asking. Gem. Today I didn't find any dill, and he went out of his way to retrieve dill from somewhere else in the store. His disposition is unparalleled, and he always makes my day. Bless you, Tyler!! Shout-out to Ashkan in the meat department and Robert the manager, too. I love this market soooo much! read more

On my lunch break and saw a great big sign outside for their fresh organic sushi. Proceeded directly to the sushi section to find it completely empty. Asked the gentleman at the deli counter if they have sushi today and he just responded "not really." Perhaps I'll return and try other parts of the store and update my review. read more

This is my favorite Jimbo's. I have to write this review though because one of the checkers, Chuck, is one of the kindest, most helpful people I've ever encountered. He went the extra mile to help me find a dessert I needed and the extra effort really made my night. read more

I BOUGHT A DIESTEL TURKEY BREAST - was OVER CHARGED $10.99 PER POUND!!! Ok let's start from the beginning, giving the meat dept. another chance from last time. I ordered a Diestel Organic Turkey Breast and was told come on Nov. 19th. Came yesterday and they said they didn't get the shipment, it is now Nov 21st at 8am. I don't even live in the area. How can you tell someone to come in, ask when you will be coming, put it in a log book and then not have the product. I called today to double checked for tomorrow, they told me they have them today.... So I drive over and was told they didn't get a lot of organic Turkey Breasts? I told them placed an order for an a 8lb? Where is it? They said they only have regular Turkey breasts. What was the point in ordering this from Jimbos and the excuse is we got 4lb Turkey breasts only. He finds a premium 7.77lb and charges me $10.99, I ask what is the organic price? He checks the computer and says it's the same price? I was like you sure that doesn't make sense. I'm paying $89 for a non-organic Turkey. Well I bought it since I wanted one close to 8lbs. This story doesn't end here let's continue. I was in the area of Escondido and dropped by the Jimbos at that location. I discovered that the one I purchased at 4S ranch should of been $8.99 per lbs. I called 4S ranch and explained the situation and they said they would get the manager, waited 10 min and they said the manager was at lunch to call back in 20 min. I was told I could return it for a refund but the meat manager could not give me the difference since the computer has the $10.99 as the price. I ended up buying the organic from Escondido and now have to come back to return the other one. I will not be visiting 4S ranch location again!! Too many mistakes and some shady practices are persistent here. I would make sure that prices are accurate at this location. THESE TYPE OF MISTAKES SHOULD NOT HAPPEN AND BUYER BEWARE!!! Whoever is the Manager at this location needs to change the price to $8.99 per lb as he is overcharging everyone for a non-organic Turkey!!! UNACCEPTABLE!! Look at this managers replies, he sticks to saying the issue I had with meat glue was not true!! I caught them in the act and he denies it. Now he charges clients more for a Turkey that is priced lower at other locations!! I returned the overpriced Turkey at Escondido and when they asked why I was returning they roles their eyes in disbelief and gave me my refund. read more

Jimbos is the best grocery store in San Diego! The organic produce selection is unmatchable. The juice bar is superb! I love the ginger squeeze! The deli is fresh, tasty, and healthy. I love the very veggie sandwich. They support local and offer a variety of brands. Jimbo's has integrity in everything they stand for. The store is clean. The staff is always helpful and kind. Thanks Jimbos. I love you so much! read more

Love Jimbo's! This is our primary grocery store. All organic produce, so many healthy brands and a wide selection of organic, gluten free, dairy free items. Yes it's a bit pricier but I don't mind spending more for high quality groceries. The customer service is so friendly too and the employees are very helpful. When you compare to Whole Foods and Sprouts, Jimbo's is definitely superior. Also love the hot and cold food bar, and the dessert bar! They make everything in the store using organic and high quality ingredients, with so many gluten free and vegan options too. We've grabbed lunch at their sandwich bar as well, always fresh and tasty. So happy we live near this store. read more

WOW!! So this was my 3rd time coming here, and I ALWAYS get the same sandwich...but this time it was AMAZING! The other 2 times it was good, but this one was GREAT! The bread was soft, the turkey was perfect, the amount of fixing on the sandwich was perfect and the gouda cheese (THE BEST PART) was cut in such a way that you got a taste w/ EVERY bite! The lady who made my sandwich must have known that's my favorite part! I did go back again (yesterday) and this time the sandwich was average, and only had a thin slice of gouda cheese. I could barely taste it, but everything else was good. I wanted to purchase some gouda, but the lady working said she actually got the last piece off the shelf that morning (for sandwiches) and their orders have been delayed. Needless to say this will still be my go to place for a GREAT, full-filling sandwich! They are a little $ close to $10 each....but that's what you pay for freshness! read more

We love this Jimbos location! We come here regularly and the staff is always so helpful and friendly. Blake took his time to answer our many questions about cheese. Chuck is always so welcoming and funny as well! Stacie was also super helpful. The store many times has samples so you know what you are buying and the quality. It's a bright and pleasing place to shop at. A great example of how to run a business that values its products and customers. read more

I absolutely love this Jimbos!! It's almost impossible to leave the store in a bad mood. Jessie in the meat department always has phenomenal tips with delicious medleys of spices for the meat that I would not normally try on my own. I love that there are samples and each week and I leave with some thing new and delectable to the pallet. Fresh salad, hot bar and soup bar with great, healthy choices. Always clean and tidy. Chuck is always so fun, friendly, and extremely knowledgeable where he's always introducing me to new items. I am so grateful to have such delicious and healthy food, fun and friendly staff, and safe items for the household. Shout out to Kevin and Alaissa too. They're friendly and helpful too. Thank you, Jimbos! (Much better than the one at The Forum in my opinion!) read more

Health junkie HEAVEN! Absolutely wonderful place with great customer service. I don't mind paying a premium price for quality food and happy to be of service staff. Since COVID, it's so rare to be in a place that is so cheerful and eager to be of assistance. Their hot and cold bar food are ALL made in store. Organic and fresh ingredients ONLY! The delicious flavor represents the quality and care of their products. 5 BEAMING STARS!!! read more

Love this location! I live in Escondido (another amazing location) but work out by this location from time to time and they are so friendly here! The salad bar and hot food always look fresh and not sitting forever and they have a ton of fresh produce. They have amazing staff that are helpful and friendly! Love Jimbos! Waiting for them to open a coffee bar like in Del Mar! read more

What can I say, best place ever. Is it overpriced, yes. But you get what you pay for. The apples here are beautiful not bruised...ever!! I don't know how they do it to have such good quality control but all the fruits and veggies here are perfect. I loved the meats all grass fed organic. Good selection of raw milks and cheese. I stuck to the store perimeter so can't speak on the packaged food/processed foods but Staff was always super nice and friendly. I unfortunately moved away and don't have a Jimbos near me and I miss it so much. read more

We've been here almost every day in the last 10 days. We are staying at a hotel close by and have a small kitchen. The produce section always looks and smells so inviting. Everything is always stocked and the fruit has been delicious and not moldy the next day like other markets that we won't mention. We have purchased water from their refill station to put into our reusable water bottles. Their prices are higher than Ventura County for packaged items. They have more options for vegan friendly, gluten friendly and all the other 'friendlys'. Shop has been clean, well stocked and well maintained inside and out. We used the restroom on a few of the days and it was clean and supplies stocked. Staff has been helpful and friendly. They have isles with vitamins, supplements and personal care items. Also things like incense and crystal lamps. I found a few items to gift. read more

I will no longer purchase any hot food items, soup, deli items, or pre packed item from Jimbo's any more. The flavor and quality has gone down and yesterday was the worst. I would also avoid asking questions that the manager needs to come over. He was unfriendly and unprofessional. He didn't say a word, not even a "Hi!" He looked at me like a deer seeing the headlight on the road. A worker happened to walked up and heard my question and warred for him, and he just quietly walked away. As a vegan, I was happy to see they were promoting Veganuary at the beginning of the New Year. And all the vegan hot food items looked like what they were didn't help the cause at all. I have never seen such a bad quality at Jimbo's. The soup I got and the pre-packed food (from their kitchen) were no longer as tasty as they once were. I miss the quality and the tasty of their vegan hot food entrees and sides and vegan deli item from 3-4 years ago. I hope they maintain the quality of their fresh organic produces. Its just so very sad that I can't say "I love Jimbo's" no more. read more

I will never set foot in a Jimbo's again. Weekly shopper since 2014. Carlsbad store in the forum has a manager who a few weeks ago challenged me about bringing my service animal in the store. FYI there are two questions that a business can ask legally regarding service animals. He did not ask either. He informed me that the dog had to be on a leash instead of my arms and must be house trained. My dog is x small and 9 pounds. He then stormed off. Really ? Jimbo's corporate do you promote and support this kind of treatment of customers with special circumstances? I walked straight out. Not a dime. read more

This is hands-down the best organic grocery store I've ever been to. I include Whole Foods, Sprouts, and small chains in this comparison. It honestly blew me away when I came here for he first time. My criteria are simple: selection of organic stuff, and price of said organic stuff. On both accounts Jimbo's gets an A+. The selection kind of blows my mind. When it comes to fruits, vegetables, and bulk stuff especially (grains, legumes, rice), this is my new go-to spot. Great selection of organic meat, fish, and eggs too. Now that said they don't have everything. They don't have fresh olives (they are all in a can). Their cheese section is modest. But that's ok, because for the stuff they do focus on they have an amazing selection. It's clean. The staff is friendly. And oh yeah the prices for organic stuff is way lower than elsewhere!! I highly recommend this place. read more
