    yummy
    Michele M.

    Clerks and stocker are friendly, always willing to help if not finding an item. Love their $5 Friday and their sale deals. Fully deli, butcher area and bakery. We come to Safeway every week to shop. Carts available for use outside entrances. Store is clean and well lit.

    Floral Arrangement
    Sylvia B.

    This review is long overdue. My mom passed away earlier this year and I went to the Safeway floral department to see if they could make me a floral arrangement that would center around an urn. The floral department manger was so kind and sympathetic to my situation and promised to make me the most beautiful floral arrangement. A couple weeks later I went to pick up the flowers right before my mom's memorial service and I blown away at how incredibly beautiful the flowers really were. They were my mom's favorite colors and she would have loved them. Thank you for making me feel heard in one of the most difficult periods of my life.

    Every morning there's puddles of contaminated water in the cold storage bins.

    Excellent information to know about your local Grocers! Like, how often does the raw meat you order for next day pick up sit in a cart unmonitored? (Answer: Daily, from 1-3am, as that's usually the first product department pulled from, with different raw meats like chicken and fish stacked together, while the staff collect upwards of 200 additional items, while the raw foods just...sit.....) How often do they wash the bins they use for online orders? (In almost 2 months, about 5 food delivery totes got washed, as far as anyone could keep track of. Primarily as a result of sodas or milk bursting open on the production line. Nothing besides large liquid volumes or pest invasions by flying ants and mayflies seems to merit attention.) Is there cross contamination? (In an effort to meet ever faster goals for no additional compensation, many of their desperate minimum wage employees have been seen putting raw meats and ubagged produce together, into the same bins at the same time, and not ever sterilizing those bins). Are your groceries damp? (The cold bins are left sitting overnight, full of condensation left over from the ice packs, day, after day, after day, rarely ever sterilized. Supposedly they do a large scale decontamination occasionally, but no employees seemed to know when it was last done. At minimum, it was over 2 months ago, given the duration of time the company was observed.) Do all employees sterilize the cart they set your food products on? Probably not. (Those who did were frequently disgusted by the near perpetual black dust from the foam cold bins breaking down. It covers everything, and SHOULD inherently mandate full daily disinfection. I pray for the employees and customers being exposed, as they did not disclose whether the bin materials dusting everything were carcinogenic.) How often do their employees wash their hands? (While none can attest to the bathroom visits of others, only 4 staff members appeared to ever use the break room sink at any point on shift. Employees have frequently been observed going on their breaks, eating, then going back to work-no washing at all.) Their night stalkers frequently finish their 10 minute smoke break, throw their cigarette butts out, then immediately go back to handling products. A horrifying breach of sanitation protocols that went unaddressed. Do their employees drop ice packs on the production floor (which is NOT ever cleaned with bleach, as supposedly their industrial grade equipment cannot tolerate neither bleach nor standing water). Routinely. Do they stick them back in the bins with your food? Absolutely! What about the ice packs, independent of accidents, being cleaned after general use? Nope! Same story as when they get dropped, but with extra bits of frozen parsley and cilantro instead of "floor spices"! Be cautious friends! Some companies only pretend to be up to standard and may not be as "Safe" as they'd like you to believe...

    Safeway beef patties
    Lin L.

    When you need a good wine- go here. Sterling Cabernet Sauvignon- ooh la la. It's not crowded, customers were civilized, adhere to social distancing. The supermarket is clean and cashier very friendly. Shelves were stocked. We got the wine, cheesecake and carrot cake. Go here when you need bakery, ready made/hot food and good wine. Meiome is our fave of faves but sterling is our 2nd best. Try it. Happy, Happy Birthday bae. Bought jumbo shrimps, clams, mussels, Dungeness crabs to make cioppino. Along with Kendall Jackson. & German chocolate cake. Plus, seafood broth, diced tomatoes, tomato paste, fennel and French bread. Dinner came out good. Thank you Safeway. The seafood was fresh. Cioppino came out perfect. He loves it, I loved ot Last night was MeoiMe, key lime pie and shrimps Alfredo day. That's our first time trying this wine. Oh so fine. I love reds especially merlot but this Pinot noir is really something special. Very pleasant aroma, the first sip after yoga swirl and swish a lik' in your mouth you get a hint of strawberry. Take a sniff and you catch mocha... almost chocolatey/coffee hint. Take another sip some other berries ie. Apricot, Bosenberries/blueberries, blackberries appears in your palette... almost oak-y but delectable. Take another sniff of the aroma... you'll detect vanilla. Just an excellent wine for $16++. I cleared my tastebud first after the beautiful dinner my boyfriend made- shrimp Alfredo and the slice of frozen (yes frozen but it was oh so good), key lime pie. Not a lot people last night, but we walk out fast. No lines just plain browsing over wine, grab one and the other things needed. Expired beef patties aren't exciting. We bought the bag of Safeway beef patties the day before yesterday and decided to grill 'em yesterday. My partner in crime prep my grill and chicken hen he opened the bag, the meat had freezer burn. It was t red nor pinky just dull cold beef patties. We brought it back to Safeway. Asked one of cashier to call the manager over. She came. Didn't greet us, not let us know her name. Didn't ask if we wanted a refund nor apologize. Has customer service gone down the drain especially if you're supervising the store? We just wanted a replacement. I have to ask if we could just walk out with the new bag of patties. She said, "we saw you coming in with a bag of those"... I'm not upset or anything, just a lil' weird out that the manager lacks customer service. Not even a smile. Headed back to my place, we grilled those patties. I prefer Harris ranch, thicker, taste fresher. One thing all businesses that service customers- customer service is no.1 most important thing.

    Eternal flame

    Beautiful store on Hazel & Madison. Too bad the parking lot is so DARK. Instead of wasting $$$ with that "eternal fire", they should brighten up the tree covered parking lot that's somewhat SPOOKY!!

    This is a shout out for the best bakery for Safeway! The decorators did an incredible job on the cake. Perfect example 10 out of 10!

    This is one of the older WinCo grocery stores. At least that's what it looks like on the inside…read more The store is huge! Yet, the produce selection was not great at all. Some of the fruit looked like it had been sitting there for days! Not at all like the one in Vacaville. Which has been one of the best I have been to so far. The produce is always fresh and looking nice there. You can always tell... when a store takes pride in their produce. The staff were friendly and helpful. Yet, the fact that there was a store full of employees working. Yet, they only had one cashier working. With a line of about eight people and it was going very slow. Why no one called for another cashier. I have no clue. Especially since more than one employee came up to the cashier. While the line was getting longer. Yet, no one stepped in to help. One of them seemed to be the manger. It's like being at a bank with teller and a manger just standing there doing nothing. Customers were upset and complaining. I did my best to just ignore the fact that it was going so slow. This is one location thatI don't plan on going back to. WinCo normally does a better job than this. Maybe their corporate office should give this location and visit.

    Of all of the Sacramento area stores, this location is my favorite!!!!…read more Their aisles are always neatly organized and fully stocked. Did you know if they sell a product and are out of it, they can help you order it?
