The CHEF'STORE is just plain incredible. This is definitely a restaurant supply store with items sold in large quantities and near wholesale prices. Move over Costco because the chef'store literally has you beat on high-quality bulk food purchase and you don't even need a membership to shop and buy. The customer service is top notch and in my last visit an employee literally chased ME down to see if I needed any help finding something. Since when does that happen anymore? Check this place out, you will love it. read more

Great store to grab groceries: fruits veggies, meats, and dairy! They have frozen and fresh foods. They also carry kitchen supplies and containers. My favorite spot to restock my syrups for coffee. read more

Fair prices and great selection - especially if you aren't a member of Sam's Club or Costco!

The prices are higher than Walmart, WinCo, wholesale? Seriously ?I compared prices for at least 50 items and they were all higher than other places read more

I wish we have would have known about this type of store before. It's like buying stuff in bulk but better in most cases. For instance, you can find what you need or missing for baking for those large family events here as well. Like utensils, trays, and everything. read more

I have no idea why it took me this long to check this place out. I wrongfully assumed that you'd need a business license to shop here like Restaurant Depot, but turns out Chef's Store is open to the general public. This place was recommended to me by a fellow baker after I was forced to switch my usual bread flour with a cheaper alternative due to rising costs. When I got here, I didn't even bother getting a cart because I was just going in for flour. Big mistake. I didn't even get past the first aisle until I had to succumb to the aid of a trusty shopping cart (which comes in three different sizes -- casual shopper, small business owner, and big business owner). While it's a warehouse style experience where most items are sold in bulk, there are a lot of things here you can get that aren't in bulk, such as coffee syrups, condiments, and fruits. It's similar to Costco, minus the crazy parking lot and crowd. The prices here are generally affordable, but some items are cheaper elsewhere. Another thing to keep an eye out for is their expiration dates. Overall, I was pleased with the store layout, cleanliness, stock, and customer service. This store will be my primary shopping spot I'll just supplement with a Costco and/or grocery store for items I don't find here. I'm lucky I live close by! read more

First time here! We were looking for coffee syrups and we know that here we will find different flavors! And of course we found so many flavors that we haven't seen in other places . read more

Today was a graduation event at the school near by the store , I park there and I was running to give my sister some balloons and staff for it, after I was going to shop at the store , Manager Danny was very rude even I explain he said , no one can park here for more than 10 min, really when I shop here I expend literally more than 40 min, I found this very rude. I do understand parking is limited but I was going to shop here as I normally do for my business. I'll take my business to the restaurant depot just one block away from this location. read more

Cash and Carry where have you been all my life?! I love you and don't need a membership to shop here. Score!! The price are can be compared to Costco or Sam's club. Although, I find buying my beverages elsewhere as I feel charging 2-3 times more on water is absurd. I love that they have items that the you can not purchase at regular grocery stores. I do find that they carry a lot of the same items as Smart & Final stores as well. I like the wide selections of ethic products as well as domestic products too. The list goes on and on. I mostly purchase Low Mein noodles and my Udon noodle here. I especially love the vegetable selection. They also, sell there spices at better price than anywhere I've shopped in the area. I only dislike I have with Cash & Carry is, customer service is hit and miss most of the time. I feel like when you need help it hard to find someone and when you don't need help there's always some asking, How can I help? Like really?! Be consistent in the customer service. I rate 4 stars for the wide selection of food item and spices. I rate 2 stars on the non alcoholic beverages lower then prices please almost $5 for a 35 count of Crystal Geyser is too high! I have to rate 2 stars in regard to the level of customer service. Overall I rate Cash & Carry 3.5 Stars. read more

I love being able to put together a plate of treats for a party or being able to get disposable trays to take food to an event. They have so many supplies and I get excited every time I go here because it's hard to contain myself. So many fun things you can't get in the ordinary stores. 2 oz cups with lids to take salad dressing to go with my salad for lunch, aluminum pans to take my pulled pork or chicken to a potluck, disposable gloves which are great for when I cut up chicken I cook up for my fur babies or when cooking treats that I put on them party trays, compartment clam shells and individually wrapped plasticware sets for when I feed the unhoused, and gallon jug syrups for making shaved ice for events. Man, this store is so much fun and the prices are right. I love just strolling the aisles to get ideas for later. So many possibilities!! It's not just for restaurant owners. read more

Great place to get your supplies for a large event or BBQ...quality products at a great price....

I enjoy coming here to get bulk beef for my pup. The prices are very reasonable. I also get the ground turkey here as the cost is very good, but they haven't had it in stock the several times that I have gone. The staff are super friendly! They are very helpful. They have great attitude and always has a smile on their face. read more

I could browse Cash & Carry and find the items I need in bulk. Staff are helpful when you find one cause they are usually stocking shelves or busy at check-out. Found: Barvarian Cream ready made perfect for cream puffs Tazo tea in bulk cold cups and lids read more

selling old meat,and it's not as cheap as you would think it would be,they have good prices for whipped cream,location is in a good spot.

I love this store. I call it the Restaurant Store. It's a bulk food store. You can get 20-50 pounds of rice, potatoes. Big baking potatoes. Fair food, and their meat is to die for. We buy the whole too sirloin. Usually 14 pounds or so. Around $60. I am no butcher, but if you watch YouTube you can follow along with a real butcher cutting your steaks and stew meat. I am the freezer baggie queen. They sell that too. I portion everything out and put in freezer bags and freeze it. The first time I went there I saved so much money I bought an inexpensive electric meat slicer and a small cube freezer. They have the whole filet, tri tip for 1/2 the cost in a regular grocery store. You just have to play butcher and cut them apart. We can get 3 nice tritip from that meat. Let's not forget 120 slices of cheese. Not the vegetable oil cheese in the grocery store, but real cheese. Shedded cheese's for a whole lot less than any supermarket. I've turned so many people on to this store. They tell me it's like a Costco, (food wise) without the membership fee. We buy the chicken tenders or strips and I can fill up 4 gallon freezer bags or more for $31. If you are baking get 25 pounds of flour. Around $20. Fill those gallon freezer bags and throw it in the freezer. We also buy Chinese containers for a few dollars. 250 of them. Who needs Tupperware. We use them for our lunches and left overs. If we don't eat the leftovers I simply throw it away. . Go try this store. You will love it as much as I do. Look at their website site first. It will give you an idea of what they have. read more

I had a blast shopping here! I don't own a food truck, restaurant or coffee shop but if I did...This would be where I would be every weekend. I may not be some fancy business owner but I do run my own kitchen at home and still found a million things I would like to buy here. Utensils, serving platters and tools, dishes, storage, items for presentation. Hey, if you run a school snack bar or cafeteria, after school program, are planning a birthday party or celebration,Smart Foodservice Warehouse Store is for you. They have all the cool stuff you never knew you cold buy. Want to make some gourmet milkshakes at home? They have EVERY flavor Torani syrup for just $4.99. I tried buying a peach flavored syrup this summer on Amazon and it was over 12 bucks. Worth the drive from Citrus Heights for me. Next time I am going to take my kids because I can just imagine how much they will love seeing a store that OTHER STORES, or just moms like me, shop at. read more

Great customer service. Drove up from the central valley to pick up items for a caterings. Stopped in to purchase some items at the store. While rushing to get back before rush hour, I forgot to grab my cambro container lids on the counter by the register. Didn't realize I didn't have them until the next morning. Called the store to see if they could transfer my lids to a store in the valley close to my home. The manager Paul said that he would meet me to return my lost lids to me. We coordinated and met up.Paul went out of his way to help me. Much appreciated!!! Thanks read more

Reasonable prices and high quality. My two favorites are their avocados and frozen blueberries.

You don't need to bring cash you can use debit or credit to carry out your items too. This is a store for restaurants and people who want to by big quantity items while they do have some items in smaller size available. You dont need no membership or to be a restaurant owner its open to the public. They sell just about everything here, but limited to the selection of different brands. I have purchased sliced cheese, from sharp white chedder which i cant find anywhere else, pepper jack. beef brisket is good quality, a few soups in the frozen section. Hey dont hate till you try them. They are big sizes and all around $9 to $12 and have a lot of varietys. There spice and herb section is huge and prices are cheap for the quantity. There milk, eggs and other dairy products are good and cheap as well. Overall they have big quantities and items that i cant find in other store. Great example if you like torani syrups they have so many to choose, they even have a sweet heat flavor were have you ever seen this before? So if you have a big family or little but you all rwally like to use something alot, ketchup, eggs, syrups, herb spices, candy etc you should check them out and see what they have. Go big, save money, and have a party with all you can find here! read more

If you're like me and you like to buy things in bulk at the absolute cheapest prices available, look no further than Cash & Carry. Here I buy things like napkins, cups, plates, bags, buckets and a million other necessary evils for large-scale parties at rock-bottom cost. If you think places like Costco and Smart & Final have the cheap bulk market cornered, you haven't been here. Like the items on the shelves, this place is no frills. It's basically a warehouse and most of the products are just in boxes and only discernible by the manufacturer codes on the side. You also will probably have trouble finding an employee if you need help. But hey, if you haven't figured out that the lack of service and pleasantries is what keeps this place so cheap, then you're in the wrong store. read more

How many times do you go to a big name warehouse store (Costco, Sam's Club, etc.) and realize you actually don't have enough of what you need? Well, look no further because "Cash & Carry" will solve that problem in a heartbeat. Located north of Downtown Sacramento on industrial Richards Blvd, as well as a true warehouse store in all respects, "Cash & Carry" is literally the leaders of the big bulk products here in Sacramento. "Cash & Carry" is a very popular establishment for small restaurant business owners who buy very large quantities of food in multiple packages. For example, let's say you are co-owner of a Chinese restaurant and need lots of rice. Well.. problem solved as they sell 50-100lb bags of rice here! And how about if you're looking to plan a wedding for 200-300 guests and need lots of condiments, cups, & utensils? They have such a sizable amount that you'll still have plenty left over. Keep in mind, I haven't stepped foot in this place since around 2008. However, nothing has changed; even the prices are strikingly similar to how I remember them years ago. Once entering, you will notice a decent-sized warehouse with plenty of aisles throughout the store. There are a lack of employees but everything is laid out fairly easy to find. And there are no shopping carts so be ready to haul stuff on a flat-bed dolly. The prices here are amazingly impressive as well. You can easily buy a 30lb. bag of Russet potatoes for a wickedly low $10.00! And if that doesn't convince you, their meats are way, way less than any Costco warehouse. I've seen beef briskets for $3.49/lb., ground chuck for $2.99/lb., and boneless/skinless chicken breasts for $2.99/lb. Keep in mind that these items are not small in terms of weight. Expect to spend quite a bit as these items are in very large packs that range anywhere from 15 to 30lbs. However, don't let these prices fool you as certain items that have a significantly higher markup price than your neighborhood grocery store. I recently saw a container of the Folgers "Classic Roast" coffee (that brews 270 cups) for a pricey $13.99. However, you can usually buy this at your local Safeway or even Target from $7.99-$9.99. As long as you are savvy in knowing general prices of food products, you should be okay. Overall, this place is quite impressive and has been the go-to warehouse store for many years. Many people are also under the assumption that you must be a business owner to purchase items here. Not true! And best of all, you don't need a membership card like Costco or Sam's! So check this place out if you haven't already. It's got a lot of stuff in larger than life sizes! read more

The manager Teng and staff members here are always genuinely nice and caring. They talk to you, joke with you and are helpful and knowledgeable of their store. I'm here once a week I can almost help too lol read more

I go here all the time. However the guy stocking the wipes on Monday was hiding them all over the place even near food in the freezer and produce section. People were following him around as he was trying to hide them all over the store don't know what was up his ass I didn't need any but I saw him being a jackass read more

I get all my meat here and that's great. They always have what I need. My 1 big complaint is, they allow the homeless to use the customer restroom . I'm scared to use the restroom there... That's very unsanitary. read more

I love going to this store. They always have exactly what I need. Unlike Costco who keeps raising their prices and changes stuff all the time so what you liked before and returned to buy more of, is no longer is there. I can buy my favorite things at cash and carry every time I go there. I no longer buy Romain lettuce at Raleys or Costco. I found a 6 pack of romaine lettuce at cash and carry that's always perfect! Nice and green, perfect size and not all brown. It's perfect every time. I love the crispy strips I put on my salads and in my soups. About $4.00 for a large bag. The tiny bags at raleys cost almost that much! Such good deals at cash and carry! The syrups they have is a huge selection. I buy them all the time. Love them. $4.69 I believe per bottle. I paid more then that for a small bottle at raleys! Not anymore! Cash and carry is my store! read more

Good variety of items and decent bulk prices without having to pay a membership fee. The cashiers do a great job keeping the line moving.

This place is my latest awesome find. The sign out front intimates that you have to be a business owner, ready to back your box van up to the loading dock and load up on a gross of push brooms and 50 gallon drums of Italian dressing. Not the case at all... You can be a complete nobody and shop here! In fact, you can be a complete nobody without cash and shop here; they take Visa/Master. So, basically the only accurate part of their street sign is the "carry" part. Now, there is a bit of the Costco/Sam's CLub danger here: don't buy over your head. This store sells most items in large containers and in bulk. There are many frozen, dried, canned, box items that you don't have to worry about. Also, they do sell some items in small amounts (cheese, eggs, milk, citrus, bananas, etc). If you need to feed a group or if you like to cook at home a lot, this place is great for picking up staple items at unrivaled prices. There's not much organic to choose from and some stuff is downright post chemical revolution plasti-food, but overall the inventory is quality. read more

I'll give 5 stars because I love this place. But like others have mentioned some cashiers are rude as F@&$! Manny learn some basic salutations. It will further your career one day I promise... read more

Do you need a giant slab of beef? Pork cushion? Several dozen sausages? Institutional cans of beans or a 55-gallon drum of soybean oil? You've come to the right place! But seriously, Cash and Carry is a great place for any number of food-related items, especially if you are preparing for a big event, or if you're in the food biz. We shop here regularly because of one specific item, which is Torani sugar-free Italian syrups. They have not only the best selection, but the prices are far and away the best in town - by a huge amount. They also stock DaVinci and Ghirardelli syrups should you want those. There is also a decent selection of cooking gear, a big frozen food section, and seriously, the meat department is outstanding, and the pricing very fair for most items. It's totally worth a visit, and unlike Costco et al, it's rarely crowded. They do not, however, carry anything that is not related to the process of putting food and drink in your yam-bag, so don't come looking for clothing or TVs. read more

Great place to buy almost every thing you need when it comes to food. All for inexpensive prices. A huge bag of potatoes or onions for less than $10, check. Need a lot of meat for a party, check. Walking in might be a little intimidating because there are no shopping carts, just flat-bed ones, and there are just a few employees running round, but everyone is very helpful. read more

This place is great. I bought stuff here for our daughter's recent birthday party and it is CHEAP. I probably would have spent 2-3 times as much at costco. But beware, some stuff is a lot more expensive. You have to know your prices and you will save a ton. Just be careful about overbuying. Not everyone needs 50 pounds of flour. read more

It's a good place to buy bargains. I purchased 2 bags of 20 lbs ice for $6.5, great deal compared to the other stores. Also, they have good quality plastic cups, soda, and water at awesome prices. I haven't shopped for grocery or for other items here, but I'm pretty sure that they have deals on those as well. I recommend this place for bargain and good quality stuff. read more
