Nutrition Zone

So… I walked into nutrition zone not knowing what to expect. I was looking to get some protein powder and pre workouts but wasn’t too sure on what to get since i am new to the whole supplement industry. An employee named Phil was there to help me. He was freakin awesome!!! :))))) Great customer service and you can tell he def knows his stuff. He didn’t try to sell me anything (which is usually a pet peeve of mine)… instead he educated me on ingredients and different products to let me decide for myself. This Nutrition Zone was very clean and located next to the Domo Sushi. I left with a basic idea on how to diet and how to train in the gym. He also gave me some free samples to try just so I’d know the differences between a few supplements. I definitely recommend going to this location

Honestly the people are great but their return policy is horrible. They give you a recommendation and then if they are wrong they don’t take it back. Go to GNC. They will take any return for any reason. Not a lot of variety either

Jay has great customer service skills! He is also very knowledgeable and honest! Every time i go to this store i feel welcomed!

Being a woman I often times get a little intimidated going into a nutrition supplement store but Nutrition Zone made me feel very comfortable. I wasnt sure exactly what I was looking for but I told them my goals and the gentleman was able to assess me with some questions and get me on a few different things. It has been about 2 weeks now and I love everything I am taking. The protein is great! The vitamin gives me energy! And I have already lost a few pounds on the detox product. Plus I was given a diet sheet that helped me understand the proper ways of eating and healthy nutrition. I’ll definitely be back!

I liked the experience, the shop was nice the customer service was good, they know their product and are very helpful, and their prices were good too, so overall, very happy.

I’ve read all the reviews to this place and was skeptical at first since it was the first nutrition shop in google. All my friends told me to be careful of a big bald guy. Well when I walked in, every thing looked organized and had a lot of selections. The two guys that worked there were extremely helpful and knowledgeable. I had to ask about the big bald dude but they ensured me that he was no longer there. Overall my experience was great, I just wish it was closer to my gym.

I went here twice, both times HORRIBLE service! A bald guy with tattoos had a lot of unnecessary attitude. No real knowledge on products or rather no desire to share knowledge on products. If I could give zero stars I would! I will never come to this store again and I tell everyone I know NOT to come here!

Came here a couple years ago and it was my first time visiting this location. Had a few questions here and there for the worker hoping I’d get some help, but no it was totally the opposite. Their response felt like whatever and that they didn’t even bother trying. But anyways, decided to stop by again to give it another shot because I was looking for a certain pre workout or whatever I could get. This time when I stopped by it was a different person behind the counter, a more structured male with glasses. He looked like the type of person who would actually take the time and hear my situation out. So I went in and asked for help on the product I needed or was looking for. He was very helpful and generous enough to answer all my needs. Walked out of the store a happy camper knowing that I can come back and count on them when it comes to finding certain supplements.

They carry a very limited supply of the products that they get no «commission» from. They push their own brand more. Prices are good. Do your own research or ask someone you trust.

I’ve shopped and spent money here before, it’s a good store and overall, my experience has been good (aside from the obviously juiced up gentleman with no hair and tattoos)
The downside is that they will not quote price on the phone. I don’t live near their location, but would happily make the trip if it were worth it to me. They wouldn’t quote me over the phone so I made trip to Vitamin Shop, who were able to quote the price.
I’m all about small business and would have happily driven the extra miles to Santee.

I live right across the street and never been in before yesterday. I decided to see if they had Modern BCAA, a popular supplement I like. I walk in, first thing I notice is it’s very clean. Everything seems very organized and in place. It smells like vitamins lol.
Here is the issue. When I walked in, I received no acknowledgement that I was there. The guy behind the counter stood there on his phone or something. I am very shy so it is hard for me to just go up to someone and ask for help. I skimmed through the store looking for the item I wanted and didn’t see it. I walked up to the man and stood there, in front of him, waiting, because I didn’t want to be rude and interrupt what he was doing. I stood there for 2 minutes and he said nothing. He didn’t even look up at me.
I finally said «Hey, I have a question». He ignored me for about 20 seconds and then asked me what he could help with. «Do you have a supplement called ‘Modern BCAA?» I asked. His reply was «Are you talking about new BCAA supplements?» I told him no, that it was a specific and popular product. He told me he had never heard of it and they didn’t have it. I politely said thanks. He said nothing more and went back to his phone and I walked out. Again, no acknowledgement that I was leaving.
Now I hate pushy salesmen, but no recommendations? No «hey, we don’t have that, but here is something similar.’ He didn’t care, he just stood there reading on his phone.
The only reason I give 2 Stars instead of 1 is because it is a nice shop, as mentioned earlier. Everything is clean and organized. I have seen some filthy supplement shops before.
Do NOT go here unless you have a specific item you need quickly and you KNOW they have it. Don’t expect any helpful info or common welcoming behavior.

I didn’t even go, just called with some basic questions. All I received was sarcasm, a poor attitude, and no real help. It’s reasons like these that Amazon is killing small business, not the extra $ 5 this store may or may not charge for products. Won’t be going in ever. Thanks Amazon Prime.

VERY HELPFUL, not pushy or trying to sell you crap you don’t need. I’ve been here once and wouldn’t go anywhere else again.

Didn’t have a good experience here. I got the run around on products that I ordered and never came. I wasted too much time, gas and patience trying to get my product from this place. The OWNER lied on the duration of time that the product was going to be there, Lied about the location of the product (told me it was at his clairemont) I drove there and it wasn’t there. I felt like my business was not valued. The OWNER made no attempt to make my experience with this store a good one.
Strongly recommend PRO BODY WHEREHOUSE in El Cajon, Since I switched I have had no problems!

These guys rock! Come here if you want a great deal on your supps. The staff is very knowledgable and can answer all your questions. They have a great selection of products and they will be upfront about the pros and cons of different items. A great deal and an educating experience!!!
