    I was looking for a bulk of ginger which they didn't have so had to settle for this

    It was my first time at this Ralph's and it was disappointing to see they didn't have many things I was looking for this Memorial Day weekend. They didn't have fresh garlic, fruits, and dressings. The people here were nice, but I didn't like that things weren't very organized as other Ralph locations and it was frustrating. Also the ambiance isn't the best as there are cameras everywhere! There's literally 20 cameras going down the checkout lines which leads me to believe there's a lot of theft here. That didn't make me feel like the customers coming in are very safe. Probably won't go here often, just for emergencies.

    Clean, difficult in this area, nice workers, across the street from the sportsman's lodge. Plenty of parking of course. This store is run down and it shows but they always have what you need. Good deli and hot food area. Regular grocery store. I come here at least once a week. If you're looking for an inexpensive meal, this is the place. Haven't had a bad experience

    I don't know why when these workers see you with a cart full of groceries, knowing you're about to spend over $200 at their store because they can see your cart is full but still treat you rudely. Today they sold me beef jerky that expired TWO years ago! I tried calling to let someone know as there's a bunch more left on their shelf but their phone system makes it impossible to get through to anyone. I should have known better and kept an eye out. Not the first time I've bought expired product here.

With that being said, I told him few days ago, to go do some shopping from this store. I am not going to mention each item one by one, but you will see them in my photos. We needed things from practically every aisle. Aisles are easy to navigate and always nicely organized/fully stocked. Sometimes produce is not that fresh.

Like these are one way aisles pretty much unless you are a California size -1. I'm old fat and cranky so parking is the biggest concern of mine and I actually googled which is the Erewhon with the least hassle free parking and this one came up and it's true. There is 90 minute free parking and it's not exactly simple. You have to get a ticket and then you may be double parking someone inside and you have to give some people your keys so if they have to move your car you can't they can. They held onto my keys but did not move my car so I didn't tip them. I wasn't expecting to tip when I went to a grocery store. There's more than one business in the plaza so I think they're employed by them so just be prepared with that and have cash on hand. I did not get the Hailey Bieber smoothie although I was tempted. I've heard mixed reviews and I know it's very expensive and I did not want to spend that kind of money on a smoothie. I didn't like. I did end up getting a bottled peanut butter smoothie and that one cost $14 and it was really delicious. It tasted healthy, but it was really good. I also got some vanilla chai crisps that are in the back corner by the freezer section and those are delicious as well. Those were $6.99 for a bag and honestly, I thought that was reasonable. I did get a strawberry cream dessert. It's all natural and I think vegan or something or other. I don't know. It was really good, from the few bites I had I was going to save it and it melted in my car so hopefully it will taste good tomorrow even if it's not in the shape originally was. I also got some Keylime and Meyer lemon tarts. I tried the lemon one they should be refrigerated which I did not know until I tried to eat them. The lemon one was good. I have not tried the lime one yet. I ended up spending $44 on five items. I just went there to say I've gone there. Would I go there regularly if there was one available to me probably not but I would go occasionally. It just seems now that it's a lot of content creators or people who want to see content creators, or people we're just going there is a tourist. I can't imagine anyone doing their weekly shopping here.

She proceeded to ignore me while I was asking for help talking to another employee. I had also gotten a bottle soda from the fridge that I open prior to paying and she threw it in upside down and the cap wasn't fully secured so my stuff inside my bag was wet with soda. Not to mention when I was walking away from the register, CYNTHIA/CLAUDIA was helping the next customer and started talking about "She was so difficult, I didn't want to help her" and so I turned around and told Cynthia/CLAUDIA next time you talk about a customer make sure they leave. She was still being sarcastic and briefly repeated her name back to me after I had said it.

Approached this one older man and asked him if he could make me a bowl of Poke, he said no, you have to do it yourself and as I was still talking, he kept walking away from me. I approached him and said"I am talking to you and you keep walking away from me". That is rude and unprofessional. He didn't even apologize. His name was Mario in the seafood department. Poke looked very fresh along with all the other toppings and ingredients. Just by looking at it, it was super OVERWHELMING! He had nothing else to do, because he had both of his hands behind his back and just walking around. If he wanted to to help me, then he would have. This was on the morning of 7/17/26 a little before 9AM. On the other hand, Tony, who worked the Sushi Bar, in the same seafood department, saw what happened and apologized on Mario's behalf. The fridge for Sushi and other ready made fish items was EMPTY. Tony asked me what is it that he can do/make for me? I replied Spicy Tuna roll. He even wanted to know how many pieces? I told him 8. Right away he went back into the kitchen and made me what I have requested. For 8 pieces was only (12.99). Not a bad price. Came back and handed me the Sushi. Got home and tasted the food and it was very fresh and delicious. Next aisle that I visited was their frozen section. Needed to buy few waffles. There were 2 guys, that absolutely refused to help me. Wouldn't even let me speak. So, I looked around and found the waffles that I was NOT looking for. I wanted the Belgian Waffles and didn't see any. Got the Vans brand Power Grain Protein waffles, and gluten free Original Waffles. So for 4 waffles together came out to be $18.89 with tax. Next disappointment was, went to check out and there was no one at the registers. Waited for like 5 minutes, until this woman came and turned the light on for register # 4. Couldn't catch her name. Store was in a very nice condition, very clean, and fully stocked. They have everything from A to Z. Nice music was playing overhead. They have a very nice, big, 2 sections of patio/outside seating and every now and then, if you are lucky, you may find some items from everywhere that is on sale!

Parking is super easy and convenient. You just drive up the ramp, go through the gate (it opens automatically), and there's no ticket needed. You even get one hour free, which is a huge plus. There's plenty of parking both underground and at street level in the Citrus Commons complex. I'm a big fan of Trader Joe's in general and shop here every week. What makes this store special is the selection -- you can find so many unique products that you won't see in other grocery chains, including a lot of European-style foods. Some of our favorites are eggplant spread, sauerkraut, frozen sweet cheese pancakes (blinchiki), pork dumplings, and many other great items. Prices are reasonable (around average), especially considering the quality and uniqueness of the products. The staff here is incredibly friendly -- honestly, one of the nicest teams I've seen in any grocery store. The atmosphere is always welcoming, clean, and easy to navigate. Another great bonus: there are actually two Trader Joe's stores right across the street from each other on Riverside Drive. This newer location is bigger, brighter, and has even more variety.
