    Roseo - manager who profiled me

    I had a very upsetting experience at this Vons location (3461 W 3rd St) on March 31 around 3 PM. As soon as I walked in, a store manager (name sounded like "Roseo") told me to leave, accusing me of previously stealing a shopping cart. This was completely false. When I asked them to review security footage to verify, they refused and still insisted I leave. I'm a regular customer and have never had any issues here before. As a darker-skinned man, the situation felt like possible racial profiling, which made it even more concerning. Very disappointing experience. I hope management takes this seriously and reviews how customers are being treated at this location.

    Just shopped here yesterday & was disgusted to find a roach greeting me in the pet aisle. Please for the love of God do not shop at this Vons unless you want to accidentally bring some roaches back home. How appalling & disgusting that they're letting this store continue to operate. It's unfair to the community who I'm sure relies on this Vons heavily. Please do better Vons!!!

    I am very upset that I came across town to get to this store at 140AM with the understanding that store hours were until 2AM. At least ten other people were outside when I arrived and the security guard was telling everyone they are closed, even though it was only 1:40AM. A worker then came out and said they were closing so they could all leave at 2AM. However, if the store hours say open until 2AM, the store should stay open until 2AM. It is totally unacceptable that these workers closed the doors 20 minutes before closing time. It is false advertising of store hours and a major inconvenience for people who were expecting to get food at a time we thought we could get food. If the workers do not want to work during business hours, they shouldn't work there.

    Salmonfish is rotten, the staff no smile, the floor near the refrigerator is not clean, a little noise but is acceptable.

    Homeless in line reeking like he had not bathed in months

    This review is long overdue and my visit this past Saturday compels me to speak strongly against the quality of this location and its surroundings. The quality of the food is not the issue, nor the prices, per se. Each consumer can go where he feels pricing, quality, or variety of offerings are better. The problem, rather, is the look and feel of this Vons. Not in the greatest area, the Vons' parking lot is not meant to be a shining beacon of cleanliness, understandably. But when the parking lot looks dirty, AND there are vagrants abound AND a homeless is sleeping right by the entrance, something needs to be said. As I drove in from the side entrance on 2nd Street, I could see two vagrants, one looking like he was doing drugs and the other walking around up to no good. Once parked, I approached the east entrance and saw a homeless man under a blanket sleeping on the curb. There were teenage solicitors by the entryway, thus adding to the "noise" of the already filthy surroundings. Inside I saw 2-3 security guards who were not in that moment doing anything to have the homeless sleeper removed. The walls of the Vons property on the Vermont side where there is a bus stop is encased with graffiti; trash is thrown onto the narrow lawn area between that wall and the parking lot. Not only that, but the lines at this store are too long. There is also no customer support person standing at the booth in the middle of the store - it's only a booth where employees appear to clock in and out. This Saturday when I realized I was overcharged by over $10 (because the clerk incorrectly scanned 6 on-sale items), the employee clocking in/out at the booth area told me to go "stand back in line" so the clerk could rescan everything! What kind of customer service is this? Cashier neglects to carefully and accurately scan tags and the customer now has to go back in line? With the introduction of the self-checkout machines and no customer service booth, this Vons location is clearly about cost-cutting. Not to mention the trashy look of the exterior, this is not a grocery story I would recommend. Photos and videos attached, which should be sent to the corporate office.

Both my mom and I agreed that we will never come back here again. My mom had come to get a refund because one of the pears she bought the day before was completely rotten. The market manager refunded $2 to her credit card, which was fine. The real problem started after that. When my mom was trying to drive out of the parking lot, the gate bar went up after scanning the parking ticket, but then suddenly came crashing down. If my mom hadn't quickly backed up, it could have hit her car. The bigger issue was that after that, the gate bar never went back up again. Cars behind us had to use another exit nearby. My mom, who was very shaken, went to ask the market manager what to do, but she said she didn't know. (At first, I stayed in the car and had to tell the cars behind us to use the other exit because the gate was not working). I was very upset when I heard that, so I went inside and asked the manager for the building management's contact number. She gave me a number, but when I called, the person who answered kept saying she couldn't find the address even after I repeated it more than ten times. Eventually, she told me they no longer manage that building. So I asked her to provide the contact number for the property management that handles the building, and she gave me another number. but it led to an automated system. After selecting the emergency option, a man answered, but even after I clearly spelled out "Zion" multiple times (Z as in Zebra, I as in Ice cream, O as in Oscar, N as in Nancy), he still couldn't understand and then told me that they no longer manage the building and hung up. We arrived at the market around 5 PM and didn't get out until 7 PM. No one helped us at all. After the call, I went back to the market manager again, but she still said she didn't know anything. It made me so angry--how can a manager not even know the property management contact for the building they work in? I also have low blood sugar, so when I get hungry, I start shaking. I ended up buying a piece of bread from the Paris Baguette inside the market. I didn't have cash with me, so I had to pay $3.50 with my card, but thankfully, the staff there was very kind. In the end, my brother had to come all the way from Burbank to get a new parking ticket for us so we could finally get out--after two hours. If he hadn't come, we might have been stuck there even longer or had to abandon the car. Thinking about it now still makes me extremely angry. The customer service is terrible, the building management is a mess, and there was no security at all. I never want to come back to this place. We spent two hours there, from 5 PM to 7 PM, completely wasting our time. Because of this, I couldn't do anything I had planned for the rest of the afternoon and evening. It was an absolute nightmare. My mom was also very upset and couldn't believe a place like this exists. FYI) Every time I come to this market, there is absolutely no cell phone signal., which is another major downside.

Similar to other Asian market set ups you'll be able to pick up hot food and other items like sashimi as well as other Japanese snacks and goodies. I also happened to pick up some good protein shakes on sale there as well as noted some other staples that I would find in big chain supermarkets. I found the aisles to be well stocked. Prices everywhere are going up so I wouldn't say this is the cheapest place to shop but for what you get it's not bad, and if you are looking to get a variety of what you need for Asian cooking this is a good spot for it. Service was quick and friendly at the register as this no frills and casual market. There is a parking garage behind the grocery as part of the mall but it can get crowded on weekends so if you're lucky you can find street parking but watch for street signs and some areas and streets are not in the best neighborhoods adjacent so be wary of your surroundings.

I asked her how things worked and she explained it all. The kefir/kombucha bottles are $4 for 16 oz and they have 3 of each on tap. I asked Marcy about one before realizing everything had a QR code and you can easily pull up the ingredients and descriptions/directions for each item. I'm getting away from plastics and this place scratches me right where I itch! They sell just about anything you can imagine! I was so impressed w the selection! They even have produce and fresh sourdough bread! The day old is 50% off and I'm so mad I was in a pinch and had to buy store bought bread, otherwise I would've tried it today. I can't say enough. Even the music was fire and I was shazaming and jamming. Shower gels, body care, non seed oils, baking mixes, laundry pods and things you see in bulk at like Sprouts, but the quality and sourcing seems to be better. Some items don't need jars and they sell paper bags for .10 each. I did a kombucha/kefir tasting. Marcy brought these steel bowls over. No waste at all! If you drink the POG kefir soda at Erewhon and love it, try it here! It's made w fruit and is noticeably better! And POG there is my fave. Just try it at Re_!!! So when I was checking out I asked Marcy about being more prepared and bringing my own glasses next time. They've thought of everything!!!! There's iPads and scales in the front of the store. They weigh your empty containers and give you a sticker with the tare weight and then subtract it from the weight at the end! Revolutionary! They add 3% for the employees. I should've added more. Marcy was amazing and worth it. I'm honestly not big on tipping everyone for just breathing but if all the employees are like Marcy, they are worth way more than 3%! If you sign up you get 100 points instantly, $1 = 1 pt, and at 200 pts you get $10! It's not hard to spend in places like this but it's beyond worth it. I keep seeing things about the harms of plastic and don't get me started on all the other crap in our food. I foresee this as a new staple in my diet and home. They even have cleaning products! I'm getting my spices here from now on too! I'm a fan and I'll be back! Thank you Marcy and to the owners that had this amazing idea!
