This review goes specifically to the pharmacy at this Walmart location. I needed some contact Lens solution and saw that it's locked up behind that glass screen. I waited patiently at the pharmacy line and when I asked them if they could open it for me the woman behind the counter said they don't open it and I should look for another Walmart employee with a vest on. Great! So I look around and after a while I found an employee but she tells me the pharmacy has the keys and I should go there....I don't have time to be sent from one place to another! The pharmacy line was too long for me. I decided to buy my solution at CVS or Walgreens. I won't ever buy it at Walmart again. Everything else at Walmart is good. read more

I hovered between a 2 and a 3 star review. I come to this Walmart often enough because it's close to work and I can pick up a few things before heading home. Lately they've started carrying grocery items. Although the selection is slim it gets you through in a pinch (milk, eggs, orange juice, potatoes etc.) They have one hour photo service that you can upload your photos on-line and pick up the prints in store. Tobacco is usually over priced (around $7 for a pack of Camel Crush) but they have a decent selection of inexpensive brand name wines and sometimes have 36 packs of Bud Light on sale for $19.98. The express line checker will boot people who try to slide through with full carts. You can get jar candles for $4 and they last forever, they work on your patio without breaking the bank. Parking in front is horrendous. If you're only grabbing a few items park in the back and exit the store through the mall. They also have a Red Box near the front door. As long as you don't shop during peak hours you can avoid the lines and the crowds. read more

I don't have anything against WalMart, but this is by FAR the worst one I've ever been to. The parking lot is always full of cars and very dirty. The staff is usually okay. Not really willing to ask if you need help, but always willing to help if you ask for it. Except for one eternally grumpy cashier. The store is currently being re-somethinged so it is impossible to find anything. No joke, the cosmetics were in the middle of the men's clothing awhile ago. Lines are always huge. It will take twice as long to stand in line as it did to get your items. Seeing as how this is the closest WalMart to me, I know I cannot avoid it forever. But I've made a rule that I'll spend a few extra bucks to go to Target to find parking and check out in a decent amount of time... unless I can somehow make it at the opening on a weekday. read more

Warren if your going to work in retail you must learn to greet and show a willingness to help the customer. Hopefully your store manager was able to address this issue with you. Also, Eye Contact and Smiling goes along way! Can someone please get Warren some help, he just doesn't seem to be happy working in the sporting good department! GOOD LUCK WARREN. read more

I guess the day after Christmas wasn't the best time to go to a Walmart. There were so many people milling around in there, and the store was a mess. I was surprised to see Bacardi on an endcap in front of the cash wrap (but I guess not all states are as uptight about liquor as Texas is). Not sure if this Wal-mart would have been better on a different day, but I try to avoid going to Wal-mart whenever possible so I may not be able to tell you. In general, it seems perpetually dirty and crowded. Bottom line: yikes. read more

We were in the area and needed to kill sometime. So, we decided to be a bit risque and ventured into Walmart. The store wasn't as cluttered as I expected but that's not to say it wasn't a bit messy, the clientele wasn't as sketchy as I expected but that's not to say they weren't crude at all, and the staff wasn't as "zombie-like" as I expected and I really mean that. Overall If I had to shop at a Walmart I'd pick this one. read more

This place is rediculously understaffed. Waiting over 15 min to buy a fishing license and no one even around walking the floors. Wth?? This place is absurd. Dont come here if you can avoid it read more

Tonight after meeting some co-worker slash friends up at Chili's Grill & Bar Family Restaurant they decided to wander through the Wal-Mart Super Center. I was pushed furiously fast in a shopping cart and almost died after going off a curb. Someone kept passing gas. And everyone wouldn't stop talking about sex. Inside it felt like the village of the damned. One person ran off to find eggs. A male librarian and I perused the wii section together and almost held hands. Two other people tormented/flirted with each other as usual. On the way out I bought the mexicans chocolate tacos, but only in exchange for the promise of a plastic bag full of savory tamales come christmas eve. SAVORY not sweet poor favor. It's Wal-Mart. They are open 24 hours. What else is there to know? read more

This review is for the Garden Center only. This by far has to be the best garden center I have ever been to at any Walmart. I was told it was the largest in Southern California. One of the employees said they were going to make it smaller some time next year due to this being a Super Center location. Why Walmart why?? Why mess with a good thing? You can't beat their prices for all your gardening supplies there selection is amazing and so much to choose from. If your into gardening like me then I suggest you check this location out. read more

See all

This Walmart is always busy! Overly busy. Parking lot gets crazy. Theres now alot of people outside the store who try to sell you candy. In the parking lot ive encountered many of times people trying to sell me things. I just keep walking. I really only come here when its an absolute must. Theres alot of things im not very fond of. Their self check out is now 15 items or less? Why? If im scanning stuff myself it shouldnt matter im paying for it. Ive been to self check out many times where im looking for someone to give me the bag i pay 10 cents for. I just gotta grab it myself. After a certain hour you can only use a credit card at self check out. And alot of times i cant find the help i need out on the floor . And many of times there isnt many registers open. All this worrying about small things. self check out i would be more worried about all the product that sits outside by the garden area with no one around watching. Oh and more than anything this store gets so busy people wait outside the front while they drop someone off to run in and put their hazard lights and wait there that causes alot of traffic. And people are having to go around them and it doesnt leave much walk way for the pedestrians to walk. Its crazy soo. I refrain from coming here. I dont feel free to shop as when i go to target. I feel restricted. read more

First of all , I am not a walmart shopper on the average. I stopped at this one waiting for Portillo's to open and pick up a few grocery items. What I found in this walmart is like any other I have been to in my area. The employees aren't lazy and they are willing to help. The lines weren't long at the checkouts and we staffed by non-ghetto people who spoke english, fluently and there were plenty of staff around the store to assist you in finding things. Perhaps is the neighborhood this is located in because the Walmart that is the closest to my home is in the Torrance 90502 zip code, which is really not Torrance at all but what is referred to as the "LA Strip" . . See my review below for that Walmart read more

Tried calling the Photo Dept four (4) times. They either hang up on me before I can even talk to them they hang up me or just don't even answer the phone at all. Store is obviously run by foreigners who have no concept about customer service. I will never even try to contact them again. NEVER John Kinner read more

This Wal-Mart is HUGE. it is a super center after all. due to the fact taht is so huge, it is so hard to get any help at all in finding what you are looking for. on top of that, even when u find someone to help you, the workers there are not very knowledgable of how to help you. parking is here pretty bad. because it is located at the buena park mall, there are a lot of people that come to this wal-mart. you can find parking, it just might have to be a long ways from the actual wal-mart. read more

Avoid at all costs. Run down store, rude employees, and never any parking. Don't you dare get in anyone's way, staff or customers 'cause they'll mow you down. Last time I went to have my battery replaced under warranty, I waited 25 min for a manager. The cashier did not acknowledge me or even apologize for the wait. This isn't the first time it's happened. This barely scrapes the surface. Shop elsewhere. The problem is Walmart has certain things that other places don't have. I only come here maybe 3 times a year. And each time, I am always reminded why I don't shop there regularly. I would rather spend another 2-3% at Target where I feel good about myself after I leave the store. read more

I don't write many reviews....But this one....I had to I am a Walmart customer who is not apologetic about it...I look there first....It usually fast..easy...out the door I go.. But today...I walked into a store I seldom frequent in the Buena Park Mall. I wanted to grab a cable for the PC....Everything is locked down...so i have to wait for 6 customers to ring out before the cashier can come and unlock a $19.99 item from the rack...Ok...whatever...Its not worth getting irritated over...Cashier comes over..she is very nice..and helpful...I'm happy..and off to the Services counter to send my daughter money for groceries.... I have sent too many WalMart to WalMart transfers to count....Only once did I run into an issue and it was over a form none of the other locations required... But this time...He pulls me up on the computer...and looks at my drivers license and says " I'ts expired".... Ok...What does that to do with SENDING money???...I understand on the receiving end you want proper ID...But im trying to GIVE YOU MONEY...Not GET MONEY...He makes me go out in the rain...to get my paperwork from the DMV...I do...But its the old form...not the new one...and he again rejects me at the counter....when obviously my picture is me...and the paperwork is there ....He turns to his manager and she just dismisses it...says..."We cant accept it."... Then she got upset when I pulled out my phone to take a picture of her... Told me " You cant take pictures in here!!".... We will see about that lady...: ). I can no longer accept your attitude...and your poor customer service...You will be happy to know that another store was able to help me immediately without the hassle...and the attitude.... NEVER will I patronize this store as long as she is still a manager there... read more

People hear the name "Walmart" and cringe. But I don't, in fact.. I'm indifferent. I acknowledge that Walmart may be associated with a weird crowd of people and also a bit "ghetto" but I've never felt that way much at Walmart. Especially this one. Yes, it does get incredibly messy. At the same time, it's hard to blame the store for that because it's the guests that create the messes. It's a nice Walmart, really. Employees are really nice too. The store itself is big and lots of items to choose from. Their prices are considerably cheaper than many other places too. I don't come here often, and barely at all recently, but I'd recommend this Walmart over other ones! There's a McDonald's here too, right by the entrance. The parking lot does get really crowded, though. read more

Came in at 1pm for a simple oil change, it's 330pm I'm still waiting...how hard is it to drain old oil, replace oil filter and pour new oil fluid????? c' mon Walmart oil tech you guys are not splitting an atom, it's a simple oil change!!!! read more

This walmart does not have a lot of stuff, they even lack customer service. The employees look miserable and it reflects in their work. For example, Ebony obviously does not want to do any extra work even if it is something she could assist with. She'd rather just hand out flyer than be helpful to customers. I do not recommend this location! it's trashy. Is 0 stars an option? read more

Every time I'm in this hole I have a horrid experience in general and check out is a nightmare that generally involves either a machine acting up and having to be restarted or a previous transaction going wrong and taking the register down, forcing me to join a different line. Often happens multiple times in one visit... read more

Been going to that Walmart for the past year to cash my checks every two weeks the employee Brittany a white lady looks at my check and doesn't cash it because my ID and check address are different I understand the situation with the address but every other employee cashes my check every time . I guess it just depends on who you get. I leave that Walmart and go to the grocery Walmart down the street and Hispanic lady cashing my check instantly. Hmmm read more

I always go to this walmart because it"s the closest one to where I live. I haven't had any bad experiences in terms of customer service (except for the grumpy, mean-looking old lady that works in cosmetics-"excuse me! You can't open that!!!!- and another grumpy old female cashier in the auto department). It's just like what other people have said- it's walmart, and you can't expect much out of this place. read more

I give this place zero stars cause the service here is mega horrible. The employees here hate to work hat Walmart my fiancé went there because he got a nail stuck in his tire and we have a warranty through their tire department the girl was rude, rude,rude read more

Considering how this corporation is run, and how it treats its employees, I guess I shouldn't really have expected to be treated with exceptional customer service or anything. I did, however, expect common courtesy. Dear sales associate Nicole from electronics, I called you today to reserve the last iPhone 5 you had in stock. I overheard your associate mutter something angrily in the distance about having me come in an hour later because you guys wanted take your lunch when I called. Cool, that's fine - I get it. I came when you asked me to come, and I let you know who I was and why I was there. I don't know if that information just slipped your mind or not, but you turned around and meandered behind the desk for a couple of minutes before starting to help another patron. Wtf? I reminded you I was there first, but you were already helping them and can't just "stop in the middle of what you're doing" to ring me up. So I wait an hour, and you're finally done with them.. and then you take a solid ten minutes to walk around and tinker with random shit behind the counter before you're good and ready to talk to me. I remind you about my request, and you inform me I can't purchase the phone under my family's phone plan because I'm not the primary account holder, even though i had called ATT beforehand to make sure they had me designated as an authorized user. Um... fine. Because I wanted to take advantage of their $127 deal on the phone, I told you clearly I wanted to open up a new account under my name. I set the goddamn phone down and stepped aside to look in my bag and when I turn around someone else is holding the box! Nicole, why the hell would you let someone else take THE LAST PHONE and not tell them you were in the middle of a transaction? You have got to be shitting me lady, not after all that. I didn't get the phone, but I did get a blister and a mild case of hypertension. Thanks for nothing. read more

I frequent this Walmart because of the close proximity to me. Parking sucks. It's very difficult to find close parking near the entrance; it always seems to be full! I always just park by the garden center and walk in from there. So inconvenient. The actual store is just okay. Their food selection is very minimal to supply only the basics. You wont find fancy items here as they cater to make it affordable. Their frozen food selection is very limited along with the refrigerated section. Just in general actually, they are limited in pretty much everything. Fruit and veggie selection is not as extensive as other Walmarts that i've seen, but I don't buy my produce here so it doesn't really apply to me. They really need to stock their makeup and wash sections. They are always out of so many items that I have to go to buy it somewhere else! Seriously! Why are they always out of St. Ives apricot face scrub! Ugh. I kind of wish it were a Target instead sometimes, at least they restock constantly. read more

If I could give this place zero stars, I would. There's always a younger, tall Hispanic, with tall black hair harassing me on the way out of the store. I called corporate but I know the store manager isn't going to do anything because they'll have each other's back. Back to the kid at the door. He's always asking for my receipt, you are NOT required to show your receipt. Period. So I don't show it on my way out. This time I had enough, he almost wanted to go in my shopping cart, for what? His "manager" was walking up as this was happening, he was a coach. Obviously still needs coaching. His name Ephraim was completely rude and asked if I had shown him my receipt and I said because I don't have to then he said ok then get out of the store instead of apologizing for his employee. There's nothing wrong with showing your receipt but if I have to wait for 20 minutes in line to get checked out, because there isn't enough cashiers! I'm not trying to spend more time on another line so they can check my receipt. I hate that it's so conveniently close to my house. read more

Horrible, worst Walmart have ever been to. This Walmart was closing on late March - 28-2018 I tried to self check out with just over $11.00 the machine was not working, I asked politely for help, there were 2 employees close in that area. A female employee took my credit card B of A, and kept screwing up until card was shut down for security, blunders by staff. Rudest told me that my credit card was no good. Told me that they were closed, I said I have another card, snatched it out of my hand went to the other machines, I was getting tired, aggravated. I was told ok your set. I looked at the pile of women's restocking basket Wrong basket, mine is right there. I was ignored, they lied saying the computers had shut down, store is closed /Leave. I tried to tell them but both of them wouldn't turn. Loud, clearly told them that they better clear that charge from my cards. They were asses, just ignored me. I left with nothing not even a receipt, why would I need one. They snatched credit cards out of my hands twice. Found both cards had been charged by Wal-Mart my bank of America credit card was locked, they were idiots trying the charges as if a debt cards. On both. I found charges first called BofA card services, they saw immediately it was charged over and over until security automatically shut down. Next discover card charges for over $100. Called directly to that Walmart, ask for management, was hugup on, lied to telling me that they found the error, would credit the card back fully. Nothing no reinstatement of charged funds. Over 20 hours on phone spent on this, keep put on hold then disconnect over and over again. Customer service department at one point said the errors have been found, was told to bring in the receipt, I Don"t Have Nor given receipt. The management. Employees are broken at that Wal-Mart Buena Park Absolutely horrible experience for Walmart, oh they refused to give me reason management or district office. Number, again lies telling that the regional management department was inside that store. I have had to contact the regional office before in Arizona. Customer return policy, in Arizona. The district told me my mouth is hsngimg open. She had me return immediately to that customer service. The employees who were the nine me refund or exchange totally banished it's treated with courtesy and respect after that. I called it the Walmart returns department mentality. It's shame Walmart employs. Such horrible employees, never any respect, or calling a promised return call. When I met Samuel Walton, since deceased. When shared alot in common aviation, he was balloon pilot and I was a light Aviation pilot and instructor. He kept Walmart running like a well oiled machine, unfortunately it's gone downhill as most of America population knows well . Hopefully this will bring much needed internal investigation of all the stores in management. read more

It is WalMart...enough said. You know what you are getting when you shop here. Everything made in China, cheap, and huge selection. Customer service isn't great...try flagging someone down in the electronics department...LOL. Just be patient...they will get to you eventually. read more

This review is about their phone customer service. First time I called, it took 59 seconds for them to even pick up. Once they picked up, I heard a bunch of noise, people talking, I said "Hello?" and then they immediately hung up on me. I called again, right away and I was at 74 seconds and it was still ringing and no one was picking up so I just hung up. Annoying. read more

I am impressed with the Auto Care Center here. Sure, it takes them a long time to process a purchase of tires when they are busy because they have to enter a lot of numbers into the computer, the computer makes things complicated, and there was a long line on Black Friday, but the workers try their best, and they are courteous, even though I have to ask them questions if they do not communicate certain things from the start. I ordered tires and scheduled installation at the Brea location through the website, but they cancelled everything because the tires were out of stock. The people at the Buena Park location were able to help me out. David got the tires for me. Chris scheduled an installation appointment for the next day. Before they were installed, I told Alex which tires needed to be replaced and how I wanted them rotated. I was pleased to find that they did everything right! While I was in the parking lot waiting for the work to be done, a security guard chased away a homeless man walking behind me that I did not see at first. The only reason why I am giving this Walmart four stars is that one of the guys at the cell phone area was pushy, shady, confusing, and disrespectful - pressuring me to buy an iPhone 13, instead of the iPhone 14, telling me I had to upgrade my line and then saying I didn't, saying the iPhone 13 was $60 and the iPhone 14 was $70 and then saying they were free, etc. He was actually a contractor, not a Walmart employee. He was not even wearing a shirt with his company's logo, like his coworkers. read more

They used to be open 24 hours, and I do miss that, as sometimes I don't get off work until after 11:00 p.m. The prices are good, though I feel sometimes they could be a little cheaper. read more

We had a great experience talking to one of the workers in the garden section named Kevin. He helped us pick out a grill and patio set and he was nice enough to bring it to our car and get it in there. He had great information about smoking meats and grilling that he shared with us. It shows he likes his job and is willing to go the extra mile. read more

ASM Amy Rico is the best! She knew where everything was and answered all of my questions. I don't normally like Walmart but I will be returning back to this store just because of her and her awesomeness! Thank you Amy! read more

Came to Walmart to get new tires on my standard c230 2006 Mercedes Benz. "Sorry. We aren't allowed to install tires on your model".

First time visitor to this Wal-Mart, and I can say that I was impressed with the people who works here; friendly and helpful. I was looking for some cold medicine, and the clerk was more that helpful and gave me some valuable tips and warnings of taking OTC medications. It is rare that I receive this calibre service from a Wal-Mart. I have patronized many Wal-Marts and this is by far one of the most organized and friendliest. I think by being a nice and upscale shopping center, it attracts a nicer clientele. I would also like to give kudos to the greeter, Janet; who was very friendly and down-to-earth. Janet is indicative to what a good greeter is all about; providing a great first impression for shoppers. Way to to, Wal-Mart management for securing nice and friendly people. read more

If looking for produce do not come here ! They have a McDonalds but not fruit or veggies ? I'm confused you can't even do grocery shopping here read more

I had a bad experience at this Walmart the other night, when I was using the self check out station I scanned all my items , I then scanned a coupon to get my discount off the item brand, A Walmart Employee (Green colored Hair & Glasses) , came up to me and came super close, gets her finger and hits the checkout system hard showing me there is no Coupons, she then tells me in this voice "Next time pay attention and read there's no coupons here" I was very shocked a Walmart Employee would have that type of behavior towards there customers. She was very rude , instead of explaining it like an adult, she decided to have poor behavior and disrespect me. she's the only one with greenish hair that wears glasses. If you see her stay away she has bad customer service skills and looks like she doesn't care about her job. This may be my last time at this Walmart due to this experience. read more

Walmart is not accepting returns of cushions. I've been trying to return outdoor furniture cushions I purchased in May for months since they did not fit. I've been told multiple times that they do not know when I will be able to return them. There are no signs saying what they will not take back the cushions since I do have the receipt. I will now call my credit card company to see if there is a way to get my payment back. read more

Never trust this company's online store stock information. Went to this branch because I was looking for a couple appliances and it was stated they had them in stock. Went to the place, waited in line to get in (Codid-times requirement) once inside you have to deal with the moronic store layout... you can try asking a store assistant, if you'll find one and if they're willing to help, that is! Good luck with that. I'll never step into this place again. A total waste of time and bad vibes, absolutely not worth it. There's many better companies that deserve your business... all I know that is branch for sure it's not one. read more

One of the racist Walmarts I've ever been to. Extremely poor customer service especially from the so called management team. I rather go without then to ever step foot inside this place again.... They can return a beat up used mattress from someone without a receipt but can't return an expired item from someone who has a receipt, damn plentiful read more

To Camille who was working at the customer service desk on 4/28/2015 @ 10:00pm: You should be grateful that you have a job and really need to work on your customer service skills. There are probably hundreds of people that would take your job in a heartbeat and be grateful to be working. I could tell by your attitude and the way you rolled your eyes at me that you would rather be living off the system and have hardworking people like myself pay your way through life. You should go back to school and learn how you should treat people in general. But I can see where you get it from because your manager was just as rude. Always remember that the customers did not choose this job for you. You are the one that applied and accepted the job. I will never return to this Walmart and would rather drive 5-10 miles farther and go to another location. HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE!!!!!!!! read more
