Incredibly high prices for low products, quantity and packing disguise you’re actually paying more.Example: 99cents per Pineapple works out to a $4.80 PinneapleYou’re actually better off shopping at Trader Joe’s

Most items are easy to find. Im typically able to find what I need. As long as theyre enough clerks, the lines move pretty quickly.

One of the few supermarkets around that still offer good customer service. Most things are always stocked up, depending on date/time you come, but no complaints. Always have new sales going on

Staff is incredibly kind and patient, especially with the chaos of lately. Prices are fair and selection has been pretty good in recent weeks despite the supply chain rendering some items unavailable. Carts have tended to be very hard to navigate amd require a lot of muscle which could make navigating the store really difficult if not impossible for some folks.

Only 2 cashier open one 15 Items only and one regular on Monday feb 24 at 10.30 am and 15 customers in line each . We was waiting for 20 to 25 minutes. Finally a lady show up to open a thirty register. Manager no were to see on the floor. Prices are good but be ready to spent 25 to 30 minutes on line .

Its not Beverley Hills so dont have those expectations. For what its worth its a good store for the area. It keeps the community from buying their groceries from corner stores. Its a chain store it has standards so I would feel comfortable buying here.

Even with a minumum amount of customers the cashiers arent able to handle quick cashing. I always see employees panicking and running around like chickens with there heads chopped off struggling to get lines down. This staff is a bit rude and cant balance emotional from proffesional work.

Great meat sales ...pork butts on sale today 77 cents a pound...and its fresh pork not frozen and shipped from who knows where how long agoChicken thighs on sale last month 77 cents a pound.. no frills but same quality foods as any other major chain...good pricesI saw another reviewer comments about decor ...its a busy store with100s of people in and out every hour of everyday.. I have been in the store early in the morning and its just as clean as any other market..with lots of customers in and out every minute putting groceries back on shelves every where sure it looks worn well.Also they keep their lighting less bright than some stores but those saving go in you pocket..Thats how you get pork butts for 77 cents a pound instead of 2.77$A pound thats a twelve dollar savings on one six pound pork butt and its fresh meat not previously frozen and thats makes a real difference in taste..trust me on that ..I buy 2 butts per month every month ...posole.. anyone

Its a decent grocery store. Selection isnt great. If you want produce, go early. People pick through it and get all the decent stuff. Location is kinda sketchy,. Staff is friendly. Sometimes, the lines get super long and youll be standing there for a bit.

Review №23

This place is an asset to a marginalized community and it could be so much better. Its a building block to help revitalize downtown Richmond.Problems, the parking lot is all torn up, they need new shopping carts,theyre working their people because they serve a large community. I see they are building all these new apartments, where do folks shop in an area with a stressed out grocery store.

Review №24

Worst store to shop at. Literally had someone follow me through the store asking for money and the security guards didnt do anything. 3 ladies kept harassing everyone asking for money and when told i only had my card and not cash they kept saying to ask for cash back. I never go to foodsco because the only two times Ive been there something bad happens.

Just dont work here yeah some of the staff are great and kind. Still i would not syggest working here if you have too. People always call off, you have to come to work even if carrying contagious disease such as strep throat and pneumonia. You have to deal with managers exept tim that expect you to be a robot instead of humans. As well as this foodsco well its the ghetto so expect ghetto.

Review №28

It is what it is. Cheap, overstock from other stores for various reasons. Check dates, check seals.Two liter sodas are sometimes un carbonated 😯You can get really great deals on some items, especially produce. But overall, its just a warehouse type store with a small selection of each type of food.Staff is cool. Got free Grey Goose shakers after a checker told me they had some free ones in the office.

I just hate coming here!!I never been to a store where every single time I come in here the lines are ridiculous. The only time I came and there were no lines like 30 minutes before they were about to close which is like 11 something at night. I try avoid coming here. Its seems like they are always hiring but never enough workers or lines open.

I am. disabled person and use a mobility scooter. Ramon the GeneralManager starting 2012 to 2016 had a problem with me shopping in the store. Video on YouTube. Break the ADA rules Foods Co. Till now some of his store security want to throw me out. That is Breaking the ADA rules. Only with a lawyer they slow down on telling me to get out of store...

Its generally a good store, veggies and meat normally well taken care of, but for the third time Ive picked up a tray of chicken thighs and was rewarded by the stench of rotten chicken ON THE TRAY. I think theyre just not cleaning the meat department shelves often enough. Ive talked with the manager the first two times, but it hasnt been two weeks...

Review №42

The bathrooms are filthy. The store make to much revenue for them to have a restroom in that manner. The stock was depleted. No staff on the floor for assistance. I literally had to go back in the main fridge to recover milk. I guess due to the location of the store, its at the bottom of corp list of things to improve.

Review №57

This shop has to close at 12.p.m. but this shop is closed at 11.55 by the security. The security guard was extremely rude. He closed the door and he told the other guard that this M.F. wants to buy something. I dont understand why they cheat on the people by saying this shop will close at 12.00. I asked to speak with manager in order to get an item they told me manager dont want to see you and didnt let you go in. I would like to also give a few information how this shop messed up. When you go to aisles you will see all production is not organized and especially the breads threw away.

Good place but some people shouldnt work there.... today i went in the morning and i saw this kid with a panda head getting in. Then i heard a ladie that works there saying Why do you guys let people like this getting in That was rude. i just looked at her and she told the kid to do not record in there. When the kid got out of foodsco i asked him what he was doing recording and he just said he wantes to see people reactions while he was shoping. I think that its rude how the woman treated the kid.
