My family and I shop here often. The store offers all the foods we look for for planning meals. Usually we can find what we shop for, which is fine. It is a popular place to shop and the staff are friendly.

Good prices for bulk item buys, weekly special makes it better value too. Meat prices are good, produce prices are sometimes more expensive, but they are fresh and well organized. Staffs are friendly and helpful, also saw them keeping the aisles clean. Lines can be long and on busy period only 2 are open.

My experience coming here was fine. The staff werent particularly friendly, but nothing out of the ordinary for a grocery store. However, the produce I bought from here was of incredibly low quality. The shelf life of strawberries in the fridge should be 1-2 weeks, but within a couple of days, the strawberries I bought from here became moldy (see picture). This leads me to believe that the strawberries were likely already close to going bad when I bought it. If youre looking for produce or anything fresh, Id look elsewhere.

Cashiers get into long conversations with customers regardless of the long lines, frustrating.I like the products.

A recently remodeled store, it has well organized floor plans shelves, they are also quick to open cashier stations to keep the checkout lines bearable.I just dropped by for a quick purchase, was able to get in and out in less than 4 minutes. I saw they added a larger section of bulk foods (see pic), interesting!

I love this store....its alot more convenient than costcoIve shopped there for the last several years and even way before that it was an alpha beta Market..City of ALHAMBRA has lost touch with its long time ol school residents..& cater to the Asian content of the city.It makes sense to the council,,But not to the residents that are of American descendantsThank God for Smart n Final in our community.The only and last American marketIn town....

This store has terrible customer service . Today I put my stuff back and left without purchasing anything because the lines were so long. They never have enough registers open and should have baggers to get things moving. This isnt the first time I left without a purchase.

Good prices here and there compared to Ralphs. Some items match or best Ralphs club card prices, most dont. Biggest price winner of the DiGiorno 2-pack pizza. Rotisserie chicken taste better here. Ralphs has an employee wiping clean the shopping cart handles, Smart & Final does not. Ralphs 8 Temple City has 8 open self checkout kiosks and usually 2 to 3 manned checkout lanes. S&F has around 4 open manned checkout lanes, and the backup went all the way to the back of the store due to COVID-19 safe distancing. I prefer Ralphs while wife prefers S&F.

Here is a good ratio of space of the store to how many shoppers are there at a time. I love how they have a variety of sizing of items from small to massive party size. I would recommend shopping here during the weekdays as this place may increase in crowd size

Review №23

Walked in did some quick shopping. Well, when it came time to pay the line was wrapped around the West side of the store. All the way down the last isle by the ice cream. WOW! It took about 15 good minutes for them to open a third checker. Besides,, they over charged me for the two 2 litre Pepsis which were priced at 3 sodas for $4.89? They charged us the regular price which was $1.99 each. WTH were they thinking??? Im going back over there tonight to see if it was my fault.

AS always Smart & Final, Nothing Smart here, simply low IQ employees, very poor service, and very low low grade Food .One can only draw a conclusion, mediocre employees and STUPID Managers and Obtuse leadership.

Ever since they remodeled this store its a complete turn around! It feels a lot more spacious and they now have cold beer! I was very disappointed the first time I went and they only had warm beer. Only thing they need work on is getting more registers open to pay. You can also order stuff on instacart to get them delivered usually within two hours! That is awesome when you have company over and cant make a beer run!

I like the new renovations and upgrades that this Smart and Final has made. Its definitely become more of a one stop shop type of place in an area in need of a good grocery store. However, the changes in the store seem to have made many of the employees incompetent and left looking dumbfounded when trying to do their jobs. Overall a good store with long lines.

Its 6 PM and you have to ask if there are other cashiers because there were only 2 @ the time and the lines are long. There wasnt even a express line for those with a couple of items. I couldnt find any decent beets in a can. I could hear two employees in the fruit/veggie section talking about their marital issues. I dont know what to make of this place. I liked it better before all the changes that were made to the store. In my opinion it needs to be visited and looked into.

They have a good selection of stuff but the prices are not cheaper than ralphs or aldis. The prices are about the same as target or a little more but the quality is a little lower. Its good good for value packs items and sales

Products I came in for were not available. Bulk nuts and candy dispensers were empty. Coke products were not stocked on shelves. Didnt want further disappointments, so I didnt ask for assistance from s&f staff who seemed to have their own agendas anyways and that wasnt stocking shelves and assisting customers.

Review №81

The expanded concept is great for this location, however the space is too small for the extra concept.Selection is great, but shopping here cant be enjoyable, the aisles are too narrow, boxes everywhere, and too many customers getting jammed in their shopping carts.I love the product selection at smart and final stores, go about every week mostly to Figueroa St in DTLA, in a year probably spend around $5-6K. Alhambra location at least the day I went showed poor management (bulk items missing prices, no pens to write codes, boxes everywhere blocking freezers and aisles, four registers open with most people getting lots of items yet two were 10 items or less, either poorly trained or overworked or less than competent cashiers that took more than ordinary to check out customers (I switched lanes after the cashier got stuck for ten minutes with a customer, and then in my lane I got stuck as well (first the cashier overlooked the bar to separate orders and rang some of my stuff to the prior customer then see pens to write codes) although I had taken a photo is the PLU#).At the end I ended up getting charged bulk items with the wrong codes and included in my purchase a bag of bulk walnut pieces that the cashier or the employee she asked for codes must have collected from the floor, I didnt notice till I got home that I was added this in a bag tied up with a piece of chewed up blue gum.

I bought a couple of english cucumbers. They turned out to have a heavy amount of cucurbitacin in them. I became sick and threw up a lot. I went back to the store to let them know. I left a note for the manager. Two days later I came back and to see that the english cucumbers were still on the rack. I bought another one thinking, It may have been just the ones I bought earlier. After two small bites I started feeling the same thing again. I returned it and got my money back. I spoke to the manager. He claimed that they looked great and I was probably allergic to them. I have been eating cucumbers of all types for as long as I can remember. I invited him to take a small bite of the fruit which he refused. He knows that the fruit is bad and just doesnt want to lose product or something.
