Whole Foods Market

Employees on average seem disgruntled and not particularly interested in helping customers. Recent changes to Smokehouse have rendered the best deals in the store obsolete. Further, the meat at smokehouse is often overly dry.

Very nice, clean place. Staff are very friendly. A lot of good products in one place.

This is a bit of a drive for me compared to WF on Coldwater canyon or Sepulveda but it’s soo worth it. They’re open from 7am-​11pm Monday-​Sunday. Everything is always stocked and they have a lot more variety than the other 2. The staff is always very very friendly and helpful. Every time I’ve been, everything has been very organized and clean. Love this location!

«They have a huge hot food bar»… which is never fucking open. This is the only location I know that’s open until 11, but COMPLETELY misses the point of being open until 11. I visit other locations frequently, but every single time I’ve come here it’s let me down. Literally a monumental waste of my time. Previously to tonight I haven’t visited here in over a year because it’s left a sour taste in my mouth (both literally and figuratively) too many times.
Let’s start with the parking situation — I’d rather deal with the parking in Westwood or Hollywood than this location. It’s like going to the mall or something.
Now that we’re inside we actually have to find what we’re looking for, not an easy task since it’s literally twice the size of any other whole foods in the area. This thing doesn’t need to be this big. It just wastes time getting from one end to the other. If I wanted to wander aisles with no substance I’d just go to Ralphs.
Oh and did I mention that they apparently close the salad and hot foods bar whenever they feel like it? Every time I come here it’s closed at a different time, and never seems to be open. Is it 10:30pm? 10pm? 9:30pm? No one really knows.
Hey if you make it here early like I once did, say 8pm, enjoy paying top dollar for some stale food that’s been sitting out for at least 4 hours.
To sum up: I’ve only ever felt ripped off here, and I’ve never felt that way at any other Whole Foods.

You could have a really good lunch here only for 8 $ and free wifi-​Internet. More healthy then Starbucks to spent time with your laptop

Nothing makes me happier than calling a store and being told they have five of something that will be put aside for me and then showing up and being told they don’t have any. Get your act together.

I went to the Whole Foods in Woodland Hills to make a salad at the salad bar for dinner. There wasn’t many topping options and all the food looked old so I left and decided to go to the Whole Foods in Tarzana on my way home instead… The salad bar looked much better there so I made my salad and got a little bit of the asian noodle pasta. I got home and ate dinner and everything tasted good but 4 hours later I woke up with the chills and immediately had to use the restroom. The rest of the night I was sick with horrible food poisoning. I’m disappointed that I won’t be able to eat at the salad bar ever again from this experience and I wasted $ 16 on a poison salad :(

The staff here is absolutely wonderful. My boyfriend and I eat here all the time and they always help us out whether it’s with getting pizza, making us a great sandwich, or checking us out super quick.

This is a nice WF, come for their liquid sunshine and my greens with apple. They have the best juice bar and have to give a shout out to Pedro who is amazing and goes beyond. Richard also has great customer service and drinks have been consistent.
Aside from that, the hot foods could have a better selection (Pasadena WF have a greater selection)! And wish they dusted behind the microwave in the «dining area».
Try their fresh juices and their blueberry spelt muffin!

Went in for the first time and i was impressed. Not with the food selection or anything but for the people who worked there.
They were so helpful with intelligent personalities. That’s the kind of service im looking for.
Edson (sp?) at the fish and meat section was friendly and informative. I appreciated the help.
Another gentlemen at the section where they have lamb tuna… very close to the sandwich/​subway type section. He was so cool and welcoming. He offered me to sample sample sample and I declined. Then the manager walked out and ask him if he offered me a sample lol. I then decided to try the lamb and tuna.
They were so nice and fun. They made me feel like home and welcomed.
Great job guys. I’ll be shopping there from now. I went in on 3÷31÷16 around 7pm.
Kudos to those gentlemen that assisted. The second guy… in case a manager wants to give some accolade. He was an African-​american working at the section between the fire pizza grill and the sandwich making section.
Thank you again Whole Foods

I love Whole Foods. They provide everything our family needs for organic, non GMO, vegan options. The staff is always friendly and courteous. They have great prices and superior quality.

Love the lectures here! Always interesting and informative. I was just at a Karin Adoni’s cooking class and it was so yumny and i learned a lot!

Hilarious that people even comment on the fact that whole foods is pricey. SERIOUSLY? There’s literally a Ralph’s down the street… It’s a choice to shop here. I probably shop here 3x a week and yeah, my wallet hurts sometimes, but I like to eat well, so…
I come to WF because of the hot/​cold bar. Love getting all the bacon I want for $ 3– although, c’mon guys, you BURN the shizzle out of it sometimes. That’s okay, some of your cashiers are way cute so buying food is just my excuse to come flirt with them anyway.
They have ALL of the different types of fancy waters, kombucha, cold brews, beers, etc and the YOGURT & cheese sections are legit. All the flavors that you could want so it’s a great place to come try some new liquids, yogurts or cheese to shove in your pie hole. I mean, those are just some of the things I really enjoy buying here, but they have everything… except for «generic» brands of anything, their 365 house label will always be a little more bourgeois than your run of the mill Kroger brand.
I’ll agree that sometimes it gets ungodly packed with strollers and pre-​teens, so I try to keep my shopping pre-​lunch or post dinner. However, I believe it is spacious in comparison to other whole foods, but there is some bottle-​neck effect when the lines are long. And I can get pretty hangry, so, jamming the way to the hot bar can cause some tension…
Overall, it’s a clean store and the staff has always been super helpful when I can’t find something or if I’m being particularly needy that day. I kinda like that whole foods markets deal with such high maintenance people that I know my minuscule demands pale in comparison to the crazy ladies who need to know the name and location of the farm where their grass-​fed beef came from.

Beautiful and huge store. I shop here pretty frequently, although it’s pretty pricey so I usually try to limit my shopping for specialty items. The hot bar is incredible and has an expansive selection of great food, as well as a sushi station, pizza by the slice and a juice bar. For $ 10, you can usually get a great lunch here. I love all the seating they have, and the lounge area which is great to kick back, eat your lunch and relax.
The staff is always super friendly and helpful. There’s one checker up front (with red hair, I forget her name) that is the sweetest lady imaginable. I often will come in to get specialty meats or seafood and the guys working in those departments are so great and always strike up a nice conversation.
I do try to be mindful of the times to shop or eat here because it’s either swarmed with granola crunching «mombies» and their super strollers filled with messy baby Sneauflakes or bratty teenagers fresh from school, shrieking and causing mayhem. I have seen both species literally set up camp in the dining areas to the point where walking around, let alone sitting is near impossible. Not to mention the noise levels and food being thrown and messes made but not cleaned up. Those poor employees.

AWESOME location! It is massive and has everything you could possibly need. I’m use to the Porter Ranch location but this one is a million times better!

Hot. Bar.
Need I say more?
I think a lot of Whole Foods in the valley are outdated. Not necessarily in the fact that they are of poor quality, but the locations in Sherman Oaks/​Van Nuys are not even remotely in the same category as the Tarzana store. You can tell this particular WF is a much newer venture because it is at least three times the size of the others.
And it does not disappoint. This Whole Foods is immaculately maintained and offers a vast variety of different options be it organic meats, cheese and produce or great natural alternatives in the beauty, household, and cosmetics sections.
But one area for me, reigns superior.
The Hot Bar/​Salad Bar/​International Cuisine section.
The food bar at this particular location is pricey, yes. But they have such a varied selection of different house made meals. Ranging from comfort classics like mac and cheese and chicken to more adventurous vegan, tofu options. Delicious curries. I mean truly, just very well done food. I think this may be in part because they have the space, appliances and money to do so here.
Not to mention, the parking structure is underground. This helps significantly in not having to battle traffic on Ventura Boulevard. I think whist makes this WF the best is how user friendly it is. It’s spacious so you’re not shopping on top of other customers. It has an almost excessive amount of products, and free parking.
Whole Foods is overpriced to a degree, that I will probably never disagree with. But if you’re going to go big or go home, you’ll definitely wanna spend time here.

The store is huge! Only one floor but got everything I was looking for. I don’t usually buy all my fruit here, but the price is actually not bad at all compare to trader joe’s and Ralph’s. Some stuff I think actually cost more at Ralph’s, I’m surprised.
The store is nice and clean and I love their juice and smoothies. This location seemed to have more options than the store in Beverly Hills. But to be fair, the Beverly Hills location is in the middle of the city and isn’t as big, so it’s understandable I guess. The juice is made right there for you and is cheaper than lots of cold press juicery! And you can customize your own drink too if you are a picky drinker like me! Haha! I had the energizer and it was great, I was afraid of the wheatgrass but it actually doesn’t bother me!
I saw other reviews people talked about parking is a pain, I don’t know if it’s temporary, but right now they don’t charge people for parking, you just drive right in the parking lot underground. :)

This store (like most other WF) is immaculate, with fully stocked fresh produce and shelves. Their GF selection is great-​although a bit over priced-​. The Deli service is excellent, and all workers I have encountered are polite and approachable.
Really cool ‘stuff’ to purchase other than your typical grocery store-​like interesting home made type gifts under $ 20, interesting fragrances and soaps. Love their homeopathic section as well.

I live in this neighborhood and this whole foods is the closest walking distance market to me. I like the fact that Whole foods offer variety of foods for different diets and lifestyle; so it’s good for me to explore and find new edible goods. As a weekly costumer, I always experienced a courteous and friendly service.

My favorite thing about Whole Foods is that they have great pizza and they sell local LA (really good!) ice cream «CoolHaus»
I usually bring home about 2 pies for my friends whenever i come here. I order the pesto mushroom because they do a good job of making it! Pies are nice and fresh and you can really taste the ingredients!
Other than that, i don’t really shop here cause its expensive.

Cuando no estoy viajando por tarbajo y tengo tiempo de quedarme en casa vengo aqui para tomar almuerzo. Tiene muy buena seleccion y tambien tiene unos jugos naturales muy ricos.
The supermarket part, tmbien la uso, very good organic selection.
