Trader Joe’s

Save a cashier’s life: TURN OFF THE COUNTRY MUSIC! this place, always will. Okay, back to my Super Spinach Salad, Clementine soda, Spinach & Kale Greek yogurt dip, Chocolate almond milk, white cheddar cheese puffs and Fig & Olive crackers!

Excellent Trader Joe’s location. They have lots of vegan options for me and of course, parking is validated!

Always love to come here. Everything is well organized and everyone is super helpful. Even though the parking lot gets crowded often, it’s never been a minus since it’s worth coming back. Thank you for making my day all the time.

Still love the beer but i am so disappointed the hummus used to be good I literally threw it out totally grosse
Also the staff just talks over you while you shop they dont even bother to say may i help u!
They just ignore you like your a ghost! So strange its like i walked into a house party and i was not invited ! Well i still will go for the beer and veggie straws

I love this Trader Joe’s! The staff is super friendly! They’re always cooking up some samples; they’re pretty well-​stocked at all times; and if you buy something you don’t like, they’ll refund you, so you can lways try something new.

I love coming to Trader Joes to get some of my basics.
I came in to get some fresh veggies and some cereal and some nuts for snacks.
I normally dont come to this location but was next door running an errand.
Selection is usually great, but
Location was kind of small in comparison to other Trader Joe’s around the area. It wasn’t so busy so it didn’t feel too claustrophobic.
I was able to find my items and quickly headed towards the cashier. I paid and ask for cashback so that I could get some quarters for laundry.
The staff was not the trader joes normal happy go lucky but just quick and not friendly at all. I interacted with 3.
I was able to get my quarters but didn’t realize that there was a 2 roll limit which was kind of annoying since I never had any problems anywhere else.
I don’t think I will want to come back to this location. I much rather drive further to the other locations like on Santa Monica and off of La Cienega.

A delightful place to shop. Plentiful, free (with validation) parking, friendly service, and a sparkling clean store jam-​packed with value buys.

The prices are great and the food is delicious. If your not looking to get lost in a huge store but still get everything you need, this is the place. Its pretty much just like any other Trader Joe’s I’ve walked into.

I’ve been here a handful of times and have never been disappointed (nor cramped, even though each was at peak time).
I’m convinced the inventory here is superior to the Hyperion location. For example, they don’t ever seem to run out of the popular cookies and desserts. They have way more wine, beer and liquor. Furthermore, they have like 10 varieties of gluten free breads! At other locations, you’re lucky to find just one.
The parking here is a breeze. The garage is easily accessible and no-​nonsense unlike Hyperion trader joes. Zip in and zip out with snacks in hand. Nomnomnomnomnom.

Absolutely love this market but the location is a nightmare this center is impossible for parking and is very cramped is not user-​friendly it’s not easy to get in and out and unfortunately I land up driving two extra miles just so that I don’t have to deal with the nightmare Center. But I do love this market just a pity it in the worst center ever

My girlfriend is still sleeping, my Iced Mocha is gone (from the Starbucks next store — plz see review) & I had a little time to kill so I figured I’d snoop around this Trader Joe’s & get a feel for how Los Angelenos do groceries!
I’ve only lived in LA for two months (I’m from the Midwest) and I find myself having to make adjustments every day.
Out here, the conversations I overhear are very intelligent. Often, I’m too intimidated to interact with the people around me, I just eavesdrop & try to keep up. They talk about «spirituality» & «what’s wrong with this & that.» They have their fingers on the pulse of EVERYTHING. Not only do they know what everyone else IS thinking, but they also know WHY everyone is thinking it & what everyone else SHOULD be thinking, instead. I can’t even begin to imagine being that informed. These people don’t WATCH American Idol. They PRODUCE it. I feel like California should just choose our president. Everyone out here is a courageous master creator who can fluently slip in & out of character, write from dozens of perspectives & construct a story from beginning to end that leaves an audience member guessing & reacting with every twist & turn. And when they’re not making art, they’re resting on the cutting edge of fashion & music. They’re always wearing sunglasses, boots & tattoos. It can be pretty daunting.
That’s why I was so relieved to walk into Trader Joes!
It was a little piece of home & a subtle reminder that the world needs grocery clerks, too!
The staff here is simple. Nobody working here is a «world beater» with lofty expectations. No fancy theologians. They dress in Hawaiian Shirts & think about simple things. When I asked where the Avocados were the Crew Member didn’t quote Siddhartha Gautama, he just pointed to the Avocados. If you’re curious about any of the items just open it up & try it! If it’s not for you, hand what’s left to a Crew Member & they’ll get rid of it! I also like the fact that they have a «boat theme.» All of their groceries are a «catch of the day» so to speak. That must be so much fun for the staff! Another great thing about TJ’s is they don’t try to confuse you with «specials» & «sales.» Sometimes when I go to Ralph’s or 7 – 11 (plz see review) I can get so overwhelmed by all the deals that I grow dizzy & forget why I went in the first place! Everything here costs what it costs. The staff seemed super happy & friendly, like they didn’t have a care in the world. They all seemed to get along really well, too. Laughing & horsing around! Pranking each other! It was a lot of fun to watch (a little too much fun — I hung around for about two hours). After a long day at work I imagine this Crew gets together at one of their Studio Apartments & spends the evening giggling as they play Apples to Apples! Between you & me, watching them is kind of a nice break from Sarah (my girlfriend). It’s impossible to figure out her mood swings.
It’s really nice to find a down to earth grocery store in such a swanky part of town. The idea that I can receive great service from simple people, but I still run the chance of bumping into Leann or Busta Rhymes is the sort of treat that this TJ’s offers! Aloha & Ahoy, guys!
Open it & try it.
The staff is all smiles!
Trader Joes is for Average Joes!
FIVE STARS!

GREAT Trader Joes. They have such an amazing staff and they validate parking which is always a gem in LA.
They always have yummy coffee with soy creamer and stevia and samples of their delicious food.
And it’s affordable which is hard to believe with how amazing their food is!
Btw they have GREAT christmas snacks and tea right now. Yummy yummy.

I am floored that this trader joes has such a high rating and am assuming it is because no one that really comes to this mall has a job or a need to be anywhere in a timely fashion. Of course the staff is polite and nice here! It’s a Trader Joes! But sometimes I think it’s almost comical at the pace they move! Maybe I am
just used to whole foods and erewhon where they are laid back and approachable yet manage to do their job efficiently??? If you have nowhere to be then come here it is clean and everything!

Manager: Train your cashiers not to address your customers by nicknames like «Honey». It’s EXTREMELY patronizing, degrading, rude, condescending, inappropriate not to mention unprofessional. I have been addressed «honey» TWICE on two separate occassions already by two different employees.
I would sincerely like to know what would make someone think that it would be acceptable to address a customer patronizing your business in such a manner. I am not a teenager. I am not a child. I am almost 40 years old. Just because I’m short, have a higher-​pitched voice, or am shopping wearing a hoodie and on my phone doesn’t mean I am a teenager. You should never make «assumptions» about your clientele when you work in customer service.
A pet name like «Honey» is something you say to a lost 5 year old child like «Honey, are you trying to find your mum?» To say that to a grown adult that you aren’t familiar with is a passive– aggressive form of condescension. It is a subtle insult. And even if it isn’t meant that way, you really should play it safe when you work in customer service as not to offend people.
I would also like to add that using terms like «honey» implies an inaccurate amount of familiarity and that is annoying. We don’t have an established relationship. You don’t know me like that. Keep it professional.
I find this behavior by your employees reprehensible and extremely offensive. If it was someone significantly older than me I would let it slide but someone the same age as me or possibly even younger giving me patronizing nicknames is unacceptable. How dare you insult me when I am spending money at your business by talking down to me like I’m a child? This is not the South (where calling randoms «honey» is more commonplace. This is LA. This kind of talk doesn’t fly here.
To add insult to injury, the cashier was very sarcastic in her response when I told her to not to address me as such. No sincere remorse at all, which forced me to go to the manager. Never give your customers «pet names». It is the biggest slap in the face that you can give to someone shopping in your store. I am livid.

Very disappointing experience at Trader Joe’s today. I’ve been an avid fan & customer of Trader Joe’s for many years. Did my shopping today like any other day, bought a bottle of wine, got carded — was surprised cause I’m well over the legal age but no problem, I handed over my ID as the cashier asked.
It wasn’t until the cashier started inputting some of my personal information into his computer that I asked him to give me back my ID. He did this without my permission… as if it was the most routine thing in the world… It’s not & it shouldn’t be. There’s a lot of private information on a drivers license.
Trader Joe’s have every legal right to look at my ID when I am purchasing wine but zero right to take any information off my ID.
The cashier became so offended — like I had mortally wounded him ??? His reaction was both silly and over the top. He called over a manager — not the main guy, wish he had been there but some guy that just rolled his eyes and that was it — No explanation, no discussion, store policy jargon… nothing… the manager just wanted to get away, not deal with it!
WOW If you are going to implement a policy, please make sure your staff are versed in said policy, otherwise it looks like you don’t care about your customers & their rights as consumers.
Lets face it, folks. Trader Joe’s is a Corporation. We want to believe they’re hip and cool & open minded… but really! Are they? Next thing they’ll be swiping the customers ID’s & telling us it’s all for our own good. How many more civil liberties will Corporations erode on us unless we tell them loudly & clearly where to go!
The cashier said its so Trader Joe’s can make sure they don’t sell alcohol to younger people… well, I’ve an idea for that. How about anyone who is born in 1994 and above is prohibited and all the other folk… well, you get the picture.
Sure, check ID’s — that’s the law but don’t take down personal information. Its an INVASION OF PRIVACY!!! Yeah, I’m annoyed. I’m even annoyed at how silly the cashier’s attitude was…“well we’ve been doing it for a year and no one’s ever objected”…really!
Have we really lost the ability to subtract 21 years from today’s date? I mean, that’s how base it really is. Trader Joe’s should learn to trust their staff a little bit more, actually a lot more!
So figure it out, Trader Joe’s. Who is your customer and why are we your customers … Is it because we are young, liberal thinking open minded folk who don’t like our ID’s being f***** with! Cause if you don’t, you’ll lose us.

Never a Line during the day – ever! I love the location because it’s tucked away. Very easy parking always… and the always love teasing the overly friendly staff.

This TJ’s is located in a large shopping center which makes it super convenient it you have several errands to run. But it can also be a easy grocery run if that’s what you need. The P3 level has two elevators that go directly to the store making it a quick trip if you need it to be. Don’t forget to grab parking validation on the way out.
This store has really great hours! It is open 8 am — 10 pm. That is particularly great since there is such a variety of stores in the complex. You can fit in grocery shopping after your morning starbucks run, a gym session or a trip to the movies.

Dirty floors made my shoes sticky. Found a murdered chicken among the organic avocados. Some employees are very nice and others are hard to grab hold of. Long lines. Decent selection of organic produce.

I asked at 10:01 if I could grab eggs really quick, and I was denied the enter by bald-​headed guy with bear. Dont appreciate it based on that im a loyal costumer, and it was just ONE minute late. I understand the workers need to go home, but for once that I couldnt make it on time and I was just ONE minute late just needing to grab ONE item while i could see people still shopping around, I dont think its a way of treating costumers. Thanks about that! Great Job!

I’ve enjoyed shopping at this particular Trader Joe’s (but then again, I’m a big time Trader Joe’s fan!). At this store, aisles aren’t crowded so it’s super easy to maneuver around. Staff is always friendly, attentive and working hard to keep items well-​stocked. Whenever I’ve had questions, staff members are always close by and have been very helpful.
I’ve only ever walked to the store when visiting/​staying in the area, so not sure about the parking situation. I’ve never gone to any of the other stores/​restaurants in the mall however it’s always been clean as well as quite busy.

THE supermarché dans le coin: majorité de produits bio à prix discount, super agréable et convivial, on y rencontre pas mal de jolies filles genre futures starlettes locales (hollywood),
Je né pensais pas écrire un jour sur un supermarché.
