    One of the smaller Trader Joe's. The store is tidy and well stocked, but it can be hard to navigate with the narrow aisles. As you would expect from Trader Joe's , this location has a good variety from fresh produce and quality meats to frozen meals and unique snacks you can't find elsewhere. The staff is friendly and helpful, and the checkout process is usually smooth, even during peak hours. The majority of the items are organic and if you need gluten free, vegetarian, or kosher selection you will find it. They really have efficiency and customer service down here.

    Fly in the bread

    My fiance goes here all the time because she can't get enough of this place. I'm more of a Ralph's guy but whatever I tag along Today we got some groceries and I figure I'd get my bread there so that I can have some toast with my coffee right when we get home I get home and idk why but my fiance decides to check the bread and sure enough there's a fly inside just living his life in an all you can eat bread Buffett Anyway, check ur bread before you it or you might throw a fly back without even knowing it Picture for proof. And no I'm not going to drive back for a $2 refund I'm just annoyed so I figure this is the place to vent about it. Feels like I get more justice than a $2 refund this way. Do better TJs

    I think this is my favorite location. All the staff is polite and they move quick. Lots of choices and variety of things. When you walk in the flowers are right there then the produce. Trader Joe's got some fresh produce! Great things to make charcuterie. Frozen isle has some great stuff too. I love how it's so welcoming when you walk in. Everyone's so upbeat. Hope this location remains here or extends!

    I visited this location last night, but it was overwhelmingly packed, from the parking lot, to the actual store. Possibly due to the new launch; today they had launched new limited edition lunch bags and there was a line forming outside the store. Once I found out I could bypass that line, I made it inside, however, there was a full house tonight. Glad that my list was short so I quickly got my items and stood in line. I am grateful that the cashiers do acknowledge who is next in line and so that was a plus for me. Sometimes it can be unclear as to where to form line to pay, nonetheless, the staff member flagged me down to assist me. Awesome! Thank you Trader Joe's Staff!!

    Always the best place to get beautiful and quality flowers with budget friendly prices. Fall decor, pumpkins and cinnamon brooms are out now for this time year. There was a TJ crew member that was attending to the outdoors floral display.

    Trader Joe's is the best Grocery Store. Their selection, their proxies, their service all on point. Their stores are always super clean and they carry healthier options at prices lower than most other grocery stores. Highly recommened. This location is on the smaller side, but it has everything you want and need. I do like this location along with any other Trader Joe's, but this one has some stuff that others locations don't have. They have a wine cellar and a cool little "Welcome to Granada Hills" sign above the produce. Other than that, this location has the same great items as all the rest. Go by today and make sure you check out the new products section, you may find a new favorite. Enjoy!

    I walked in today and saw a fabulous freakin surprise! I was just there two days ago and did not see this. They got the standing freezers like they have at Toluca Lake location :-) :-) :-) I saw that months ago and wondered why we didn't have that here and now we do! I freakin love it!!!! :-) I wish they would do this at every location. Thank you!!!!

    Yes, one of my go 2 grocery stores!!! I find myself coming in at least once a week for their perfectly ripe bananas, fresh almonds and nuts, creamy garlic spread, and a great selection of wine and yogurt. Their dog treats are a staple in my cart, and I can never leave without grabbing some of their delicious cookies. Although I prefer to stay away from their meats because if you look at the source... we'll just look for yourself. . One thing I really appreciate is how efficient the store is. The lines move fast, and the cashiers are always friendly, making checkout a breeze. However, ever since the new gym opened up nearby, it feels like the store is more crowded than ever, which makes navigating the aisles a bit of a hassle. Parking has also become a challenge, and on top of that, there are no restrooms available, definitely inconvenient if I need a quick break while shopping. What I do like is that mostly all Trader Joe's look alike and have items in similar isles with its ambiance. Trader Joe's remains one of my favorite places to shop, thanks to its quality products and great service. But if they could solve the parking situation and add a restroom, it would be even better!

    Water sold at Trader Joe's - left in the sun for hours each day.

    As I was driving in to the parking lot of Trader Joe's, I saw cases of water left out in the sun. I took a picture and showed it to the store Manager. I explained to him what will happen. when leaving the water in the sun. He said the store is small And there's no room to put the water when rearranging the inside. He said the water is placed outside at 4 AM to 8 AM and from 2 PM to approximately 6 PM daily I looked at him in disbelief. Again, He said the store is too small and there's nowhere to put the water When rearranging the inside. Consequently I encourage and advise everybody reading this review to stay away from the water sold at Trader Joe's in Granada Hills.

    This is my second time to visit this location. Trader Joe's is not my go to place unless my client ask me or my daughter. Last night I came around 8ish. I can tell the store is busy since the parking lot is full. That's understatement, upon entering, inside is like a zoo. Elbow to elbow with other shoppers. I felt claustrophobic so I zoomed through the store to get what I need. I found the items speedily since the store is smallish. Cashiers are quick and efficient so the line went swiftly. I can see Employees are restocking - which is a good sign that they are working hard to keep up with the demand.

    Gotta love Trader Joe's...right? For many reasons this is my favorite location. Not only it's the closest one to my house, it is also located in a big parking lot and you will always find a spot. Yes! it's smaller than other locations but it is always well-stocked. Located in Granada Hills on Balboa Blvd. right across the street from Target, customer service is great and a lot of the employees have been there for a long time so you will always see the same friendly faces. The wine selection is what I love the most about TJ's. You don't need to spend a lot of money to get a quality bottle of wine. My favorite one right now is the "Bousquet Malbec". As we all know TJ's routinely discontinues items in order to launch new products and make space on shelves. I always get super sad when my favorites items are gone, some of them are seasonal but other ones completely disappear FOREVER, my recommendation is enjoy while you have it and/or buy more than one. Some of my favorite items are: wine! the super seedy cheese snacks (I bought like 10 bags), chili sesame oil, Japanese style fried rice (this one is the best), mushroom and black truffle pizza, the holiday cream liqueur drinks like the "Ginger bread" and the "Peppermint" are also to die for. I'm sure you guys all have your favorite items. Anyways, happy shopping! Trader Joe's rocks!

    The best dip for these crackers!

This year alone, I have purchased a product that appeared fine in the store but had visible mold inside once opened at home. I've also purchased stale chips that had to be returned for a refund. I also didn't realize they were selling expired cat food until I checked the date before purchasing (glad I did check beforehand). Between expired food, poor product quality, and constant stock issues, shopping here has become more frustrating than convenient. The frozen food aisles rarely have the items I specifically come in for, and when I ask employees for help locating products, many seem unfamiliar with where items are stocked. The staff generally appear disengaged, which only adds to the negative atmosphere. What makes this even more disappointing is that nearby stores like Sprouts and Smart & Final provide a much better shopping experience, but at nearly double the cost. I shouldn't have to pay that much more just to avoid expired products and poor service. The one bright spot is the sushi department. The two employees preparing sushi are consistently hardworking, professional, and deserve recognition for the effort they put into their work. Overall, this store has become overpriced, poorly managed, and unreliable. After years of shopping here, I've watched it decline dramatically, and the issues have become too significant to ignore.

I want to build my own family meal and utilize it for meal preparation during the week. This store is in a plaza with large parking lot. It was not busy or crowded during the time that I arrived. I appreciate the store hours being late so that I can stop by after a gym session. Overall, Sprouts is one of my new fav stores.

Come prepared to spend a little money if you're looking to satisfy your cravings--they carry hard-to-find Filipino favorites, including Ilocos empanadas. At $7.99 each, they're definitely a splurge, but it's not something you see everywhere. They accept credit cards, and the customer service was excellent. As for the Ilocos empanada, the flavor was on point, but the texture wasn't quite what I expected. It was a bit doughy and lacked the crispy crunch that makes a great empanada stand out. Overall, a solid spot for Filipino food, especially if you're looking for authentic specialties and friendly service.

Finding parking will be difficult because it's in a medium size lot but a lot of people goes to the Trader Joe's that is here and the gym. The store isn't that big inside but it works for them. The seafood and meat area are toward the back. They'll have some fish out in the middle of the store on ice so customers can just grab it themselves. The prices are reasonable here. They have other items too here but I was just looking for Sea Bass. I didn't find any here today.
