H-E-B

This HEB is predominantly Hispanic in the goods it carries which means it stocks some delicious foods and ingredients. They also sell something many other HEB’s do not: Flaming Bird. This is a whole flame roasted chicken sold in whole, half and sections. If you are looking for a satisfying lunch, a quick and delicious family meal or enough for a couple of people you can’t beat the deals they have in combos and chicken alone. This Flaming Bird is excellent and if you have a chance to try it, please do!
The store is laid out pretty much as all HEB’s are and products are easy to locate. The store is also well kept and clean. The bread aisle is arranged with bins which makes it easier to find some items. They also carry a few breakfast bread items that I have not seen in other HEB’s such as the HEB French Toast Bread (quite good!) and HEB Apple Strudel Bread.
The bakery has so many yummy items which makes it hard to choose just one thing. There is a large selection of corn tortillas which are fresh and perfect for any Tex-​Mex or Mexican meal.
The meats and produce sections both have fresh items at good prices. The same can be said for the diary section which carries a great variety of cheeses.
While we were in the checkout line I found a display that showcased Dulces La Molienda. I love sweets immensely and so I had to check out the offerings. I discovered a pumpkin candy that is sugary crisp outside, a firm jelly like texture inside with great pumpkin flavor. Pumpkin is a favorite for me just as sweets are so this was a perfect find. There are many types of candies to choose from.
This particular HEB is not near us but we found what we needed during our stop here and if in the area again we would definitely go back.

I like coming HEB store for a few reasons. They definitely have a better customer service here than in others HEB’s. People are more welcoming and nice overall. All products are nicely organized and the variety is huge! During weekends it’s very hard to find a parking but it’s worn waiting and driving

The have the best chicken (flaming bird) grilled of any grocery store I have tasted inside. This isn’t the closest heb by me, but I make a special trip over here just to grab a bird with the jalapeño and grilled onions that come along with it. All of the HEB’ s that I have visited are always fully stocked and if they don’t have it up front they have it in the back, all you have to do is ask and they shall retrieve.

We have been coming to this HEB for quite a while, the store is nice, everything is easy to find and most employees are more than willing to help you locate something you need.
The produce is always fresh, the bakery always has a display of fresh cakes that look delicious!
The meat also looks fresh and the prices are hard to beat! I won’t buy my meat anywhere else.
I tend to visit during the middle of the week so we don’t have to deal with crowds as it can get very busy the the check out lines can get long. My only pet peeve is that they give handfuls of the buddy bucks to the kids and then we have to stick around while the kids use them on that spin the wheel thing. I don’t even know what those little stickers are for, but we probably have like a million!
If you need help, just ask! If you don’t ask they don’t know!

I went here the day before I had to grill for about 250 employees. I needed 200+ fresh burger patties made and about 150 Johnsonville Brats. I met with Mark and Gary and they were both very friendly and accommodating. They had all my meats ready the next day when I arrived and I was VERY impressed by the overall selection and cleanliness of the store. We will definitely be going back the next time we have a feed for our employees. Thank you Mark and Gary and HEB!

Love the store. but the bakery sux. The workers are too busy to help. Even when it’s obvious that we want to get a cake they still ignore you. Tried to ask a question And they act like they are too busy still… so were heading to El Bolillio even if it’s out of our way.

I live just 5 minutes away from this HEB. Yes, it may not be the best one in Houston and yes, it is Hispanic based… But they are located in a predominantly Hispanic neighborhood. They are just catering to those who are more likely to shop there. Now, I have two choices, HEB or Sellers Bros to shop from. After exclusively shopping at Sellers, I made the permanent switch to this HEB.
PROS–
Their meat is very nicely packaged, it’s just the meat and none of it’s juices. (at Sellers the chicken was packaged in its slime!)
The layout is easy to manevour
They have Sushi-​ya! Best sushi ever. Do try the San Antonio roll.
They’re constantly adding bew HEB brand products (BACON JAM ANYONE??)
Their selection of wines and beers is pretty decent!
Prices overall are better and I LOVE the store coupons, combo locos, BOGOs and all those promotions. Also did you know at checkout they sometimes give you coupons for free stuff? I’ve gotten free milk, free salad, free ground beef, and even a free 6pk of their tea!
Decently priced flowers in their flower section.
Parking is huge
Gas from their station is usually the cheapest around here.
CONS–
The produce isn’t always the best. Sometimes fruit has bruises or gnats flying around.
Some fruit is missing prices or is under the wrong price, creating confusion.
Check out lines on Sunday, Monday and Tuesday are a nightmare!!!
BOTH my trucks have been broken into in that strip center. First in front of Ross where I got my stereo stolen. The other in front of this HEB where the crook stole my stereo, CDs, AND my baby’s carseat. Who does that to a baby, seriously? How was I supposed to take my baby home? A$$holes.
Some of the staff (esp the older ladies) are grumpy and know-​it-​alls.
Always in need of baggers! They have like 9 lanes open and 4 baggers.
So big its impossible to get in and out. (also because of all the deals you find a long the way… Lol)

Awsome meat department at this store, they went out of there way to get me the cuts i wanted on my tbones. I was happy and they where so nice! Bravo heb!

I liked this heb friendly staff, and good prices but I was fired over stupid gossip lol doesnt make any sense I worked here 3 years and did a great job!

Love me some HEB, especially this location!!!

People can complain all they want about this HEB, but at the end of the day it is clean, well stocked and the workers are mostly helpful. I have only had one incident in which the guy at the fish market forgot to fulfill my order for steamed crab legs. I ordered them and when I went back 15 minutes later he had just forgotten! ugh, annoying! I told him to forget it, but not before letting his supervisor know what an inconvinience that was for me. Seriously, that’s your job! Do it! Anyways, I shop here whenever I forget to do it after work and honestly the options around this area are far worse.

I usually go to this HEB because it’s in my neighborhood, but honestly I wish there was a better store nearby. The produce is usually rotting, and they don’t carry a lot of items that I consider normal. They used to carry a lot of healthier options, but have since replaced those with more of the same unhealthy items. For example, they used to carry Amy’s soups, but have scaled it back to mostly Campbell’s. They almost never carry Leeks, have a terrible selection of unprocessed cheese, and they also have no wild rice options. They have about 20 different brands of white rice, though! I also went for vegetable stock, and found none. The biggest problem I have, is that the store will carry these items for a month or two and when I go back to buy it again, it’s no longer available!
If you try to eat healthy, avoid this store! I’ve left upset without needed ingredients on many occasions. When I can, I shop elsewhere.

This location has a little more Hispanic flair than most, and as such, seems to not carry some of the items that other HEB locations may have. however, the store is nice enough, the wait in line was minimal and prices were fine. However, if you’re looking for a «fancier» HEB, you need to hit the one on Buffalo Speedway @ Bissonnet where parking can be a nightmare, wait for the new one in Montrose, go over to Westheimer @ Fountainview or hit the ‘burbs.
