    Inside the store
    Peter X.

    I stopped by this Vons this morning while waiting for the pizza place across the street to open. This Vons is in a plaza with a lot of parking so I prefer parking here. I went inside to get some flour tortilla and was looking for a salsa brand that I usually get from Vons but this store didn't have it. So I got another one to try it out and it's pretty good. There a Starbucks in this Vons but it doesn't have a lot of options for drinks. They have a checkout station but the line wasn't moving so I went to the cashier station since they just open a new station because they saw the line was backing up. The employees are nice here and are approachable if you need help.

    I came early to pick up a few items. And it was a delightful errand run. Ample parking spaces. Less shoppers. Store is organized and shelves are stocked. No line at the register

    Vons Marketplace: A Quantum Culinary Odyssey In the realm of gastronomic purveyance, Vons Marketplace emerges as a bastion of culinary delight, drawing admiration for its expansive inventory and consummate service. As one delves into the labyrinth of its aisles, a nuanced tapestry of quantum phenomena unfolds, introducing an element of cosmic absurdity to the mundane pursuit of groceries. This essay aims to dissect the multidimensional facets of the Vons experience, transcending the quotidian and venturing into the realm of the extraordinary. Situated within the nexus of consumerism, Vons Marketplace stands as a testament to the diversity and quality of its culinary offerings. The sheer expanse of its inventory beckons exploration, akin to embarking on an intellectual odyssey through the gastronomic cosmos. Each aisle unfolds like a chapter in a gastronomic epic, where fresh produce and quality provisions become the protagonists in a narrative of sustenance. However, amid the culinary splendor, a peculiar phenomenon has been reported, adding a layer of enigmatic complexity to the shopping experience. Periodically, near the cereal aisle, a rift in the fabric of space-time materializes, revealing a transdimensional gateway. This quantum anomaly purportedly transforms shopping carts into autonomous entities engaged in a celestial ballet with extraterrestrial cruciferous entities. The mundane act of grocery shopping transforms into a cosmic hoedown, as if the Southern charm of Vons has transcended the boundaries of our earthly understanding. This transcendence, though captivating, demands an intellectual acuity worthy of a scholarly pursuit. The quantum tapestry unfurls, inviting scrutiny into the subatomic intricacies that underpin the seemingly mundane act of grocery acquisition. In navigating this esoteric convolution, one must possess a dollop of sweet tea wisdom, a metaphorical elixir to discern the rhythms of the cosmic jamboree. The Southern flair of Vons Marketplace contributes to the charm of this culinary odyssey. The ambiance resonates with the warmth of a Southern sunrise, and the staff's hospitality mirrors the sweetness of iced tea on a front porch swing. It's an experience that transcends the transactional, inviting patrons to partake in a cultural exchange where the boundaries between consumer and curator blur. As one immerses oneself in the Vons phenomenon, a profound cognitive dissonance emerges - the juxtaposition of the mundane and the cosmic, the tangible and the metaphysical. This dichotomy, far from diluting the essence of the Vons experience, elevates it to a status of intellectual intrigue. The pursuit of groceries transforms into an exploration of the boundaries of our understanding, where quantum phenomena and Southern hospitality converge in a harmonious dance. In conclusion, Vons Marketplace transcends its role as a mere purveyor of groceries. It becomes a canvas upon which the ordinary and the extraordinary intertwine in a quantum dance. To navigate this cosmic jamboree, one must approach the experience with not just a shopping list but with the intellectual fortitude to unravel the mysteries that lie beyond the aisle. In embracing the Southern flair, patrons become not just consumers but participants in a gastronomic odyssey, where the boundaries of understanding are as fluid as sweet tea on a summer day. Also its close to my favorite coffee store ever called alfred coffee studio city. Sincerely Jonathan Jacobius Jinglheimershmidt

    Jennifer rocks!

    The lady from the bakery Department Jennifer was amazing. She was actually working doing other stuff. And went out of her way to find these two donut packages in the back for my instacart customer- of donuts. Thank you! JENNIFER!

    I normally go to Ralph's in Encino and their produce department is so depressing that I have to shop separately for fruits and veggies at Whole Foods or Gelsons.

    THE GOOD, THE BAD AND THE UGLY: Free parking for 90 minutes (good), Fantastic organic fruits /…read moreveggies and health/beauty selection are great, (good) yummy fresh juices (good), INSANE (not in a good way) store and parking design (bad). The prices are more than a bit over-the-top (ugly). Whoever designed this store deserves a smack-down. The aisles are so small you have to shimmy past people. And if you are shopping with a cart, good luck to you. Legit the most baffling design choices I've ever seen. This is an example of design that actually effects the shopping experience in a BAD WAY. Total head scratcher. Whoever designed the parking lot for the entire complex is an absolute idiot. If you need to get your cart to your car, there are several issues depending on what area you park in. First up, upon exiting the store there is a curb with no visible ramp so you have to cart-jump the curb to get down to the street level to your car. Then there is a raised planter between parking and the store so that if you are on the other side of it, you have to cart-jump the curb again. Seriously? Total failure in design on both the store and the parking. But hey - 90 minutes free parking so that's a plus. $16 for a smoothie is a little excessive for sure. Was it good? Yes. That said, while I'm happy to pay more for a great selection of organic fruits and veggies, the smoothies aren't that different from one I could make at home or get somewhere else of the same quality but for less. So if you are on a budget or just resent paying $16 for a smoothie on principal, I suggest focusing on your favorite, good stuff at Erewhon which for me is the fruits / vegetables and their outstanding selection of health / beauty products and their prepared food. from the beauty section, I got something called EVERYTHNG OIL based on the recommendation of one of the staff and it is a GREAT product -- truly my skin is transformed -- well worth the $. I also discovered a yoghurt there that I love -- Painterland Sisters -- but I now buy it at Sprouts as it is cheaper there. The prepared food selection is great! Vegan dessert selection - hallelujah! And I'm a big fan of all their vegan options actually - great stuff. I like that they give you a credit for every glass bottle you bring back -- not a small one either. $2 for each bottle! That brings down the cost of those fresh juices I love so I'll take it!! :) So spend some time finding your favorite stuff - this is a place to pick up a couple of things -- not do ALL your grocery shopping. First of all, you don't want a cart in this place -- too hard to navigate. But also, a full shop at Erewhon is 3 times what any other store would cost. But they do have some very excellent products so worth it for those things IMHO but not for EVERYTHING. Also, try to choose a time to go when it's not packed. the store is claustrophobic when full.

    With the prices we pay, a little less attitude would be appreciated and that's from a manager…read more Shopping spending I don't know 100 and something dollars on two bags of groceries, gave you the phone numbers, gave you my wife's name and mine, showed you my ID, and you still want to lecture me about how my wife needs to go on the app and make some changes.

It has a great selection, it's clean, and the employees have always been friendly. I also appreciate that this store values inclusivity and gives meaningful employment opportunities to people who might not always be given the chance elsewhere. The only thing that has been a bit of a hassle has been renting their rug cleaners. The wait is often long (been stuck waiting for assistance for more than 30 mins on multiple occasions). I was also given a faulty rug cleaner that I had to come back and have replaced, which was kind of annoying to have to lug it back to the store and then once again wait to get a properly working one. But, all that aside, this continues to be my favorite store.

Approached this one older man and asked him if he could make me a bowl of Poke, he said no, you have to do it yourself and as I was still talking, he kept walking away from me. I approached him and said"I am talking to you and you keep walking away from me". That is rude and unprofessional. He didn't even apologize. His name was Mario in the seafood department. Poke looked very fresh along with all the other toppings and ingredients. Just by looking at it, it was super OVERWHELMING! He had nothing else to do, because he had both of his hands behind his back and just walking around. If he wanted to to help me, then he would have. This was on the morning of 7/17/26 a little before 9AM. On the other hand, Tony, who worked the Sushi Bar, in the same seafood department, saw what happened and apologized on Mario's behalf. The fridge for Sushi and other ready made fish items was EMPTY. Tony asked me what is it that he can do/make for me? I replied Spicy Tuna roll. He even wanted to know how many pieces? I told him 8. Right away he went back into the kitchen and made me what I have requested. For 8 pieces was only (12.99). Not a bad price. Came back and handed me the Sushi. Got home and tasted the food and it was very fresh and delicious. Next aisle that I visited was their frozen section. Needed to buy few waffles. There were 2 guys, that absolutely refused to help me. Wouldn't even let me speak. So, I looked around and found the waffles that I was NOT looking for. I wanted the Belgian Waffles and didn't see any. Got the Vans brand Power Grain Protein waffles, and gluten free Original Waffles. So for 4 waffles together came out to be $18.89 with tax. Next disappointment was, went to check out and there was no one at the registers. Waited for like 5 minutes, until this woman came and turned the light on for register # 4. Couldn't catch her name. Store was in a very nice condition, very clean, and fully stocked. They have everything from A to Z. Nice music was playing overhead. They have a very nice, big, 2 sections of patio/outside seating and every now and then, if you are lucky, you may find some items from everywhere that is on sale! They also have an inside seating by the flower area, and all around. Free parking, Wells Fargo ATM machine, and 2 gender neutral restrooms. I practically covered everything and more.

I used to go to Gelson's two or three times a week and stock up on food from their deli. They used to have a good selection in their hot deli section. Recently, you're lucky if there are 3-4 hot choices. And if you get there anytime after 1:00 pm or so, everything is completely dried out and stuck to the pans. I went today... wanted some sliced turkey from the carving station. No more full turkeys. Can't get dark meat or a drumstick. They only do the white meat breast. and it doesn't slice or taste the same as from a whole turkey. The salad bar has dropped in quality as well. No more black and green Olives. The hearts of palm are gooey... carrots are dried out. It is terrible. You can't even get a rubber band to hold the flimsy container closed!! They used to make really good Chicken tenders and fried chicken. They've changed the recipe on both and they are awful now. If you don't get them fresh out of the fryer, they are inedible. The produce is still high quality but not worth price. And other staples will simply bankrupt you. I've been to a couple of other Gelson's in the area and they all suffer the same drop in quality. It is a shame. I used to be willing to shell out extra $$ for a higher quality product. In the words of Inspector Clouseau... Not anymure!

Parking is super easy and convenient. You just drive up the ramp, go through the gate (it opens automatically), and there's no ticket needed. You even get one hour free, which is a huge plus. There's plenty of parking both underground and at street level in the Citrus Commons complex. I'm a big fan of Trader Joe's in general and shop here every week. What makes this store special is the selection -- you can find so many unique products that you won't see in other grocery chains, including a lot of European-style foods. Some of our favorites are eggplant spread, sauerkraut, frozen sweet cheese pancakes (blinchiki), pork dumplings, and many other great items. Prices are reasonable (around average), especially considering the quality and uniqueness of the products. The staff here is incredibly friendly -- honestly, one of the nicest teams I've seen in any grocery store. The atmosphere is always welcoming, clean, and easy to navigate. Another great bonus: there are actually two Trader Joe's stores right across the street from each other on Riverside Drive. This newer location is bigger, brighter, and has even more variety. And if one store is out of something, you can simply check the other -- so convenient! Highly recommend this location -- we're lucky to have it here in Sherman Oaks!

    So! I stopped by yesterday to get a Mother's Day card and flowers. I love buying flowers from TJ;…read morethey seem to last me a while with care. I also did my grocery shopping to get it out the way. It is on the smaller side, now that I spent a little more time in there browsing, but able to get what I was looking for. The aisles are spacious which makes the store appear bigger but it ain't. I did my rounds pretty quickly and it wasn't crowded. Pretty stocked up otherwise. The only downside: the female cashier who checked me out yesterday did not bag items for me (other places they do it automatically) that was odd. She stood there as I bagged them. Haha ironically the cashier behind her had a buddy who was assisting in the bagging process with the cashier(short staffed? Or selective?)
