    Empty milk section.
    Jack D.

    I live in walking distance to this location, which should be nice. But it isn't. I've lived here for over a decade and noticed a lot of changes here. In the last few months this location has taken a serious turn for the worse. And it needs to be called out. From a normal customer perspective: the shelf's are often sloppily stocked, if stocked at all, and the price tags on the shelf often do not correspond to the item above. So you think you found a good deal, but in reality they just over stocked the shelves with a different item to make it look fuller at the expense of accuracy. That is when the shelves look stocked, as you can see in my photos, god forbid you want a specific kind of dairy product. Their milk box ALWAYS looks like that photo. Doesn't matter the day or time of day. Their produce department has taken a nosedive lately too(see photos). The yellow AND red onions look like they've been on the shelf all week. Rather than trying to sell that to customers, it should really have been taken off the shelves. But no, management sees nothing wrong with items like this being offered for sale. And I saw the manager or assistant manager walk through the area no less than 3 times while shopping today. Another note on produce is they have terrible labels, the shelves are empty and again, labels don't match the product. If there are labels to be found. Many times there are none at all. From a delivery perspective: if you're picking up orders from here, get ready to offer LOTS of substitutions to your customers. They don't have a firm grip on their inventory at all and many things your customer wants, will simply not be there.

    The experience was unpleasant. The meat section looks not nice and the BBQ meat looks not good.

    I have been shopping here for years, since they originally opened it up. Remember years ago when…read morebehind this where all the housing is was the old Lucky's. I would say the staff is great, and the bargains are good. Regarding the staff, Maria has been here for years and is a great asset to the store and so is the store manager , his name slips me now, however he has been here a long time as well. You can find some good prices, you just have to be smart. Always look at the expiration dates as well as the pricing. On some items the pricing is much better than other supermarkets. Then there are those items, well they are about the same price as your others. Just shop smart. Ok, you may hear tune " Grocery Outlet Bargain Market " playing over and over again in your head, you are not delusional, it's probably the recording in the store ;-) Lol All kidding aside, they do play these recording.." Hey SIr, yeah you in the produce isle" And I was like.."Wow they must be talking to me" :-) And then the Grocery Outlet Bargains start playing ;-) Come on really, you think I am that gullible?! Ha ;-) I guess so!!

    I've had repeated problems with inaccurate prices at the Grocery Outlet in Palo Alto. For example,…read morea bag of apples labeled $4.99 rang up as $5.99, and instead of honoring the displayed price, an employee came back with a freshly new label printed at $5.99 -- no apology, no adjustment. Another time, a six-pack of beer with no price displayed was charged at $7.99, even though the same item costs $4.99 at another nearby Grocery Outlet. After reading other reviews, it seems I'm not the only shopper experiencing incorrect pricing at this location. This is extremely frustrating and feels misleading. I urge consumer protection agencies to look into the pricing practices here so customers can trust that the price on the shelf is the price at the register.
