I go here all the time so I can't complain too much. Generally a great selection but I would like it if they stocked more organic foods. Prices are not the cheapest, but quality is good and there are lots on sale. The pharmacy is convenient but they don't communicate. They don't phone you when your prescription is ready. If your doctor sends in a prescription too early, they don't fill it or mention it to you while you are picking up other prescriptions, you have to ask them.

The deli is one of the best I've been to, in particular on the 'weekends' for some reason. It's fresh, clean, well stocked and very eye-appealing. The staff clearly put extra effort into their role in this department.

Always clean and not too crowded even when it’s busy. Great bakery and large bulk section. Loses a star for not any carrying organic produce beyond the packaged lettuce mixes.

The pharmacy manager, Kurt Wideski, is incompetent, rude, judgmental, and thinks it's OK to shame his customers. I have had several pharmacists over the years and Kurt is a disgrace to the profession. I have never met someone in a helping field who seems to keen on doing the exact opposite.
My advice is to stay FAR away from the pharmacy. The store itself is nice, good prices, and reasonably friendly customer service, but the pharmacy is run by a complete joke of a "man"

Never used to like this chain but find myself there more often. Good specials, decent service, and selection is pretty good other than a pathetic selection of fresh seafood compared to Thriftys across the street. Not a fan of their loyalty card model but the discounts are real. Also stock produce from other places than China. Ask your Asian friends what they think of Chinese produce and its quality - or check out the videos online of bleaching garlic for export. Ugh.
