You can always count on Smart and Final for great party food. The selection is great, as well as the prices. The hot dogs, hamburger patties, and buns were all perfect for a luau. Everyone enjoyed the food. The staff/ service is always friendly and helpful. read more

Smart & Final Extra! - Long line Manager to lazy to open a second register - Grocery Near Me - Anaheim, California

Terrible service, needs to hire more people. They were all working at the speed of molasses. One Gen X had the worst attitude I had ever seen. I then proceeded to stand corrected when I saw a man in his 40s to 50s and my son played with a ball and he screamed at him. I then asked him something, and I quote, " how can I help you with something when I don't even know what to help you with." Worst shopping experience of my life, would way rather go to El Super right next to Smart and Final. read more

Service keeps getting worse. The afternoon shift is slow. The crew can care less. 2 registers at 3:10 pm and been waiting for a long time. Upper management needs to check on this store especially in the afternoon.Mario the afternoon Manager has no customer service at all. Really disappointed in the service received today. read more

I just move to Anaheim not to long ago and I love the customer service that mark give me and my wife always making us laugh and I always leave the store with a smile and he always helpful. Love how he even help me with the app when it's difficult to use sometimes. read more

If I could give this 0 stars, I would. The cashier, Daniel, has no customer service whatsoever ever. Made me feel like I was a burden because I no longer wanted an item. He was very condescending towards me cause I didn't need a bag. He didn't bother telling me my total and just stood there looking at me.l as if I'm a mind reader. He left the receipt on the table and didn't bother scooting my items over and I had to reach over to him to grab them myself as he watched on. No thank you, nothing. He's a total zombie and a nightmare of an employee. I couldn't wait to get out of there. He did the same thing to the 2 customers in front of me. 1 of them also left an item behind and I saw how he treated her. And she still kept a smile on her face despite his ugly attitude. Unfortunately, he was the only cashier there, so I had no choice but to associate with that boy. Never again. read more

terrible app sick of spending an hour+ just to save a dollar. What a scam. They do not provide wifi in the store and you are forced to use the app on your smartphone to get the digital sales. read more

Tell me why do these cashiers check out people without having their checkstand light on? They have one line with the light on and two others who don't have a clue that the liline is backed up. These guys need to wake up over here! read more

It makes me angry how businesses took away sooo much during COVID and now still won't return to normal! The state makes us use these STUPID reusable bags, but the cashiers won't bag our groceries because they are afraid of them! Is it that dangerous to bag groceries for customers? When will we ever return to some sort of normal? Smart and Final is using COVID as an excuse to provide mediocre customer service! Also, they had very few staff on the floor to help me find things. When I did find someone, they seemed helpful, but clueless. read more

Smart & Final Extra! - They sold bags, now they won't use them?!? - Grocery Near Me - Anaheim, California

Smart n final has great prices. I usually come here for work potlucks. I like the size of the frozen goods. I'll usually buy from the breakfast isle and the Starbucks glass coffees come in a big bulk. But most of all my favorite item I buy here are the mini waters. The only store that sells mini waters in a big case one small bottle fits in my back pocket for work. read more

Like most smart and finals they do have some bulk items but this one doesn't have the bulk nuts. The prices are good on some items and high on others. Its a great place is your having a party and need supplies. The do have alcohol too. I've been able to find what I've been looking for most times and they do change food idem's at times. Parking is easy to find too read more

Very displeased with the customer service experience I have received at this location. I tried to purchase 4 items which I had coupons for and was denied to use all of them for my transaction. I have never had this issue before at any smart and final when doing an identical transaction. Nor does the coupon indicate one coupon per transaction. It is disheartening to write a review in a negative narrative but the store manager was rude. read more

if i could give this place 0 stars i would. i don't appreciate how rude their employees are especially the ones stocking produce.

This is my go-to store for any party/gathering needs. Their produce n herbs are always fresh. Their cheeses generally fully stocked and they have a good selection of the fancy schmacy cheeses. They have frozen meals with vegetarian options. Their meats fully stocked with the exception of sale days of course. They have great, great, great sales. Their pastries n dessert tables have different options, my mom loves their black n white shortbread cookies. They have a great selection of juices n frozen fruits for purees for cocktails, if not just grab a bottle of one of their purees or mixers. There liqour, beer, wine selection is awesome n they usually have their handles of Jameson for $41. The staff is always friendly n helpful, they have been restocking n cleaning constantly. Brenda has been my cashier the last 2 times n even underneath her mask u can see her smile when she greets me. There's also another employee (a taller gentleman with glasses n shaved head) he is attentive, cracks jokes n just a kind human being. There store is clearly marked for social distancing to keep us customers safe. They have disposable mask n hand sanitizer, ready for u to purchase at the cash wrap. I will definitely be shopping here. read more

So the first Time i called I was on hold for 14 minutes. I was just asking for an inventory check on 16 oz mason jars, the second time I called I was hung up on. Worst customer service ever read more

I am a caterer, and I go to all the Smart and Final pico's around here even in Beverly Hills. And I hate to play favorites, but in this instance, I feel a must. The one on Euclid Ramiro, and all the other fabulous team are just so kind and so responsive and so helpful that I had to give them a shout out. They rock and I appreciate all the thank you for me at least. read more

Worst shopping experience ever I have ever had in my life. I came to visit this store based on a recommendation of a business partner and I was met with discrimination from the manager, Marc Dionio. As I do catering for events I need alcohol and I found a great price on Sauza Gold: however, before I could leave with some plastic ware I was met by Marc and he simply stated that he would not allow me to buy the alcohol. He later tried to intimidate me by saying he was going to call the police even though I had my ID and was of age as well as tried to emasculate by saying I was a small man. I thought we left these ideologies in the 1960's but I was wrong. read more

I can't believe I'm rating a grocery store. But I came for produce because I've always relied on smart n finals to have adequate produce. I had stupidly bought some moldy fruit from Walmart and so I went next door to THIS place to buy, once more, moldy fruit on accident. Cmon guys. read more

St. Patrick's Day is upon us, so that means one thing... Pickles! Every year we have a pickle sale at school. Along with a "Wear Green" Spirit Day, a Homeroom Competition, and a Musical Chairs lunchtime activity, ASB sells these outlandishly large dill pickles for 50 cents. If you're wearing green, you get one for a quarter. I only bought four containers ( http://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=xGCNwbHrXWAKDFYzESLKqw&userid=EGz1NDtgVbndCJ5R3F-stw ), but--as with every year--we sold out anyway. Smart & Final ( http://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=7kYqfsECVbpjiAhnCMHeWw&userid=EGz1NDtgVbndCJ5R3F-stw )--no matter the location--has always been my go-to when I have an ASB shopping list: * Evening Dances. Instead of pizza, I roll out the BBQ and cook up some dogs. Paired with your standard condiments, the kids may eat all they want. And at Smart & Final's price ( http://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=PmPDKA4xDmEpMGirwp0d6w&userid=EGz1NDtgVbndCJ5R3F-stw ), I can feed many while still keeping under budget. * Evening and After School Dances. I pick up a few of those big, plastic Red Vines jugs. Always a crowd pleaser: http://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=2BxMU7kW8_Cj3C5sfnSHBg&userid=EGz1NDtgVbndCJ5R3F-stw . S&F also has powdered juice mix and large, orange dispenser coolers. Easy self-serve for punch! * Homeroom Competitions. When we decide to have a Spirit Day, we either have homerooms compete against each other for rewards, or we group up homerooms--calling them "College Quads" with names such as UCLA, USC, UCI, Stanford, etc.--and have them compete that way. Using quads kind of pushes teachers who don't ordinarly participate to get involved. The prize?: Ice creams and/or popsicles: http://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=NbZ5wLp6vg1K8D6OKM6PGA&userid=EGz1NDtgVbndCJ5R3F-stw , http://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=MFm2AsyzdMN9zdCIbEaQXg&userid=EGz1NDtgVbndCJ5R3F-stw . * Donut Fishing. This is a fun lunchtime activity. We tie some string to the end of a meter stick (the fishing pole and line), and then we tie a large powdered donut to the end (the bait). A separate student is blindfolded and sits in a chair (the fish) while his or her partner (fisher) swings the powdered donut toward the other's open mouth. Whoever eats the donut entirely first--or at least gets it loose enough to drop to the ground--wins. Journalism and Yearbook staff, get ready! On a side note, this Smart & Final location just underwent some construction. They now have a brand new produce section: http://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=sKmqSREtnOYlIa20rPBWsw&userid=EGz1NDtgVbndCJ5R3F-stw . It actually looks pretty nice. To me, it seems that S&F is trying to re-produce the feeling of shopping in a regular grocery store, rather than a buy-in-bulk-only store. You no longer need a membership card to shop here. And it's also very simple to pay for items using a school check. List complete! read more

STAY AWAY. POSSIBLE COVID-19 CONTAMINATION. If I could give this 0 stars I would. We were just in the grocery store and the manager came over to the cashier to tell her she needs to go home cause she has a fever. First of all we were rushing to get the heck out of the store so didnt want to confront them in store... In these scary times buying essentials, why would you do this in front of customers. One it spiked our anxiety and two how can you not handle this back of house. We will definitely be calling corporate and reporting. read more

This post has to do with their beer displays. They always have beer stacked on the floor in front of their refrigerated beer. Its 2 stacks high. Therefore I am never able to grab beer from their top shelf without having to move their display. Today I was not able to move the display myself due to my bad hands so I asked for help twice and no one ever came. I gave up went to pay for the rest of my merchandise and explained to the cashier what happened and he says I've been telling them that but they still continue to do it. Unfortunately he didn't offer to go get my beer. Maybe the universe is trying to speak to me and tell me not to drink. Well I usually do my shopping for our family parties and I will continue to buy our adult beverages at the local liquor store. It's a shame. read more

Smart & Final Extra! - Grocery Near Me - Anaheim, California

So this review will be short and sweet because I literally went inside to buy some nacho cheese and some fruit and left. I guess the few positive things I can say about this place I can just list. * Lots of parking in a private lot * Same setup as other smart and finals * Clean location * Friendly service even at 7 am. * Decent prices but certain things are cheaper in other stores. Based on this experience I will be back. read more

I visited Smart & Final because overall the stores are pretty much the same and I really like the First Street brand and their products are reasonably priced. But this location is probably the most inconvenient when it comes to the area, traffic and parking. While the store was fine itself, it's clean and mostly stickers it's very small and they are deeply understaffed which is understandable given the hiring situation however, they have no system or setup when it comes to having people form any line for any cashier, there were only two lanes open and several lines with no room to go around and no order or waiting like the other stores and it's basically a free for all when a new lane opens up, they take whoever runs up first from any line rather than the people who have been in line for some time. Also the app is garbage, there are things on sale that require digital coupons and there's no explanation of how to use the coupons and on their website it isn't compatible nor does it give and instructions so if you want to save then download the app first then scan the barcode because it doesn't clip coupons or apply them automatically like Ralphs does. Ivan the manager at the front was awesome, friendly and helpful but sadly with their system in place of total un-organization at the front it takes way too much time to get out of there and the area like I said has major traffic on the main street so sadly I want to avoid this store unless they improve the checkout system. read more

Disappointed that there is no curbside pickup. When I order online through the website I can get some of the items I want but the delivery charges came up to almost $12, when I try to order through InstaCart most of the items weren't available. Why is it so different? I was buying for my church for our homeless food program. Guess I'll have to go somewhere else. read more

We have been here a handful of times and the store is always clean, well stocked and easy to navigate. The one drawback is they often leave stock carts abandoned in the aisles which makes it one way traffic and during COVID Funtime that makes it a little annoying. They have a big selection of produce which is the reason I go there. I would give higher stars if the stock carts were taken care of more. read more

Great food, great service. Their handmade tortillas are the best. They are serving free Breakfast on Thanksgiving morning to everyone that shows up. That's amazing! I spoke with one of the owners, very nice person, shared with me the history of the place and the love of what they do. H read more

I kind of love this place! Best candy deals best random equipment deals Great preparty store read more

This store sucks! Always out of what I need and "fresh" items are old and expired! The bread is stale, the produce is moldy and bruised. This almost seems like a discount grocery because the products are not quality. I travel the extra miles to go to a legit grocery store even though this is close to home! read more

Rowena is extremely rude and unprofessional. Why do you have employees that hate their job and are miserable while doing it? It makes you not want to return to your store. She argued with me about some chicken that was on sale. I grabbed five packs. She began by yelling at me that there was a limit of four packs. She left the register without saying anything about where she was going, came back with a paper and said "well it's right there in the ad that there's a limit". OK well I didn't look at the ad before I decided to come into the grocery store to do my grocery shopping. I didn't know that that was a requirement. I told her that was fine that I would pay for the fifth pack separately after I finish this first transaction. I told her there was no sign by the chicken display case that said there was a limit.. And again she began to yell at me about how there's a shortage of chicken and that's why they couldn't scan more than four per customer. OK well if there's a shortage of chicken why does the grocery chain have it on sale? So I asked her then is that a no, she wouldn't let me pay for that pack separate? She then told me she would only do it this one time but because of the shortage of chicken she's not supposed to do that. She scanned my stuff, threw it to the side & threw two bags at me when I asked for two bags, and she threw my receipt at me. The guy behind me even said hi to her about four times and it wasn't until about the fifth time he said hi to her she finally acknowledged him. From beginning to end she was just nasty and rude. She definitely shouldn't be working with people. I wish the Smart & Final by my house didn't close! Instead I have to drive here and deal with miserable old employees like ROWENA. read more

Beware of car part thieves! My truck's tailgate was jus stolen today in broad daylight after 20 mins of shopping in smart and final. Called the manager and she hung up on me. Dangerous and unsupervised parking area. Will not shop here and I suggest if you have a truck do not come around this shopping area. read more

03/14/2020 , All I have to say even though there was a crazy line outside to go inside, items inside the are limited to due this States craziness!!! I had such an amazing experience shopping and checking out. Associates there were amazing!! Jason, Steve, Rami, Robert, I think her name was loren (AM), the girl working produce and especially the two guys in the front who were making sure the safety of us (customers) was a priority. Totally worth driving 45 mins from home to buy toilet paper and water! read more

I've been coming here for two years now & I have found every cashier to be pleasant and helpful. Last week I bought a case of eggs & was really disappointed when they appeared a little cloudy but I went ahead and scrambled them any way. I took one bite and knew something was terribly wrong. I put the plate to my nose and these eggs were actually so rotten, they smelled like fish. This actually wasn't the worst part of the story, when I returned them there was a less than pleasant cashier who's check stand I was unfortunate to fall in to that day. "Rowena" was completely insensitive about my concern, questioned me on how i stored them and if I wasn't just "mistaken" She acted like it was her 5.00 dollars I came back for. I wanted to warm someone that they may have put expired eggs on the shelf and don't you think it would have been easier for me to just let it go instead of driving the 5 miles from my house to the store and back not to mention wait in a 10 minute line? Maybe she was having an off day but people who are blatantly rude should not take jobs in customer service. read more

Came back for the first time in about a year. Nothing really worth returning for. It was a Monday afternoon and there were people stocking the shelves with ALL their carts. One asile was completely blocked. Then the lines...there were literally 25 people waiting for two cashiers. And almost everyone waiting had huge full carts to pay for. It took about 10 minutes for the lady to call for help, and probably another 10 minutes for someone to actually appear. The cashiers deliberately go as slowly as they possibly can. The lady ahead of me, with a very full cart, probably took 10 minutes by herself. This location was at least decent enough before. Now they aren't even pretending to take their jobs seriously. I only had 2 items. They could at least install a self checkout for small orders like mine. Anyway, there's no reason to come back for anything. read more

No matter what time of day you go, the line is at least ten-fifteen minutes and half a dozen customers long with only one or two cashiers working. I've gone on weekends, weekdays, mornings, afternoons, nights; ALWAYS a long line and no one to help. If they are understaffed they've done a TERRIBLE job fixing that issue, which makes this store unusable unless you have 30 free minutes. I have with no exaggeration driven to another grocery store, gotten my items, and come back to check and the line was still there. Shame because Al is very helpful, and this is my local grocery store that I now avoid. read more

Had a negative experience here. The younger staff is disrespectful to customers and does not seem to have customer service training. There doesn't seem to be anyone responsible running things here, at least in the evenings. read more

I love shopping here specially when I'm having a party. Smart n Final just gets better and better! Employees are friendly, helpful and their store manager Thomas was very sweet and help me locate -Pastry Pride Premier Non-Dairy Ready to Whip Topping 8lbs. Happy to find it here and not have to stop by elsewhere. read more

Very hit or miss. This place has some stuff that are at steal prices. They have other stuff that are at rob you prices. They have tons of bulk items. Almost like Sam's club but not nearly as big of a selection. The prices on wine and candy were outrageous. The price on frozen seafood was really expensive on some items and fantastic on others. I have to assume that they have a weekly paper and I found the specials. Detergent prices were outlandish. Frozen entrees were at good prices though. Overall - i was not impressed. Not as cheap as Several of the other places I have reviewed and no where near the quality of the nice places i have mentioned. Cheap being 99 Ranch and nice being places like Whole Foods. I might stop here in the future if I am already driving through their parking lot for something else - but I have a hard time seeing myself traveling here just to visit this store. read more

Right after I walked in the door, this location of Smart & Final had onions on sale at 5 lbs for $1. That's a better price than even Ralph's has right now at 2 lbs for $1. I especially came here to pick up a jumbo Jet Dry, but found they only had the extra large 150 loads size. I was looking for the 300 loads size, but what I found on sale here will do. After being on the road for an hour coming home from work, I was also looking to use the restroom here. It was being hidden by the racks of discount items near the back of the store. Cleanliness here in the Women's restroom is an absolute joke. I've visited restrooms in gas stations in the middle of no where cleaner than this place. How dare they have a restroom check sign off sheet upon the door. They're just signing it and not cleaning anything. Other than that, this store has lots of square footage so you're not bumping into people all the time while shopping. They also seem to have a larger drinks section than most. Beer, sports drinks, juice, soda, bottled water, etc. They were good about calling another checker up when the lines became 4-5 customers deep. Otherwise, it's a cookie cutter version of every other Smart & Final I've been to. read more
