I have been going to Kroeger stores since I was a kid in Los Angeles county (it's called Ralph's in CA). It usually is the better nicer store to go to. I don't know what the deal with the staff is (shout out to the staff at our stores in ABQ off golf course on westside) but as opposed to most people we have encountered since moving to New Mexico really awful. My opinion is they are probably kids of the highly paid Los Alamos lab employees (median household income here is over 100k) ie over indulged and under parented. Example (note it was Father's Day) I wanted to order 2 sandwiches as we drove up from ABQ for a short break. First no one came to help, then a really snotty male employee said "oh you have to order sandwiches in the morning". So WTF was this guy even doing there? So if I came in at lunch and wanted a sandwich the answer is no? Dude, this isn't Beverly Hills, or Los Ranchos. It's a tiny city in the middle of pretty much no where. Lose the attitude bro, all he had to say was "I'm sorry it's too late in the day but can I direct you to where you can get other to go food". So I bought sandwich stuff to make our own in our hotel. Cheaper, bigger, better. Kroeger needs to take a look at this store as from the other reviews there is obviously a huge issue.

I have lived in Las Alamos since March 2025 and have seen major improvements in Smiths since then…read moresuch as the wider aisles, larger Bar, polished floors, new restrooms.,Etc.. Problem is management has no idea as to cleanliness. I have sent emails to corporate and personally spoke to two store managers but have seen no results. 1. Restrooms are filthy the cleaning crew has no idea how to clean. I have personally taken some bar Keepers helper and cleaned a few sinks and even shown management the difference, but nothing has been done to resolve the issue. 2. Both Family Restrooms have old doors that have a sign that should show when occupied or not but do not work. 3. The area around the Starbucks is always filthy it needs to be cleaned numerous times a day especially after the lunch hour. 4. It sems it is no one's responsibility to move the plastic shopping baskets from the self-checkout counters to the entrance so customers are forced to proceed thru the exit door to obtain one, although there are always 2 employees standing there because the registers have so many issues, they or the employees bringing shopping carts in could easy move them, I have actually collided with customers checking out with their shopping carts while obtaining a basket. I am sure many customers share these issues but as this is the only large Grocery store in town must continue to shop there. Please share your experiences and maybe Smiths corporate will do something. Hate to post such a negative review but frustrated that Management does not seem to care, only response is "short on staff" well get out of the office and make some changes and get involved. only took me 5 min to make 1 sink look like new. "Cleanliness is next to godliness" :)

Thank goodness for Natural Grocers given the real disaster down the road run by Kroger's corporate…read moreshills called Smith's in Los Alamos. Yes, it costs a bit more for some things but the food is always kept fresh and is of very high quality. Shelves are always properly stocked. But the best part is paying for your goods. Never hardly a wait -- 4 checkout lanes, all assisted, and the clerks are all very pleasant people! Nothing like the mostly mandated self checkout lanes at Smith with long lines waiting to use them just so you can self bag and self checkout at poorly maintained machines. Natural Grocers is a gem. So glad we at least have this option in town given the mess that Smith's has become over the last few years. I try to give my grocery business to Natural Grocers as much as possible.

Prices are pretty decent and there are a few items that are stocked that are gluten-free, which is great if you're a celiac like me. The deli counter closes really early and there was a sign that the fresh salsas were located in a specific area after hours. I probably did 5 laps and couldn't find it. My hotel room didn't have a microwave and the deli closing so early meant I was out of luck for something a little more filling. Overall, pretty decent for where you're at. Visited: April 2026
