“Major Market in Bonsall has become my go-to spot for quality meat. Their tri-tip is excellent—it’s honestly right up there with the one at Seaside Market. I also appreciate their produce section; they had a beautiful display of mushrooms and some fantastic cherries on my last visit that my wife really enjoyed. Definitely worth a stop.”
“This store has a huge variety of food products that are hard to find in other markets. There are a number of ready to heat and eat products that would be great for singles. You can always purchase plants like orchids there.”
“Have to use an ATM card to pay! You can get cash back on your ATM card purchase. Cash accepted at the very front of the self-service checkout or at the full service checkouts. To use the self-service checkout you need to have 15 or fewer items. They will not take any credit card.
Attractive store layout well lit wide isles. Friendly helpful staff got quick service on my checkout problems where it rejected 2 ATM cards, but for both of them that was the first use. They have an interesting bread selection from their own bakery, french bread and Italian bread and my favorite sourdough Rosemary bread. Their garlic bread has a butter like spread on it, gave me heartburn. Walmart bakery uses datem as emulsifier (bad for health, I stopped buying it). Winco Produce in nicer condition than Walmart and substantially cheaper especially for oranges. The Cara Cara oranges have reddish flesh and I like them better than the navels in there about a dollar a pound. Love to look through all their hundreds of bulk foods and spices but they're basil is weak. Great selection of 88c per lb oatmeal even the stuff they call Scottish oats is quick cooking oats or 1 minute oats and then they're quick oats is a 5-minute oat and then the old fashioned is a 10 minute and then the course oats are 45 minutes oats. They have red lentils in their wonderful they don't cause any gas and you can make them into a puree in the blender especially if you cook them in the instapot and let them sit for an hour after they're done under pressure. My dog's favorite pedigree small dog chicken dog food is very cheap here also.”
“This was my first shopping visit to the Trader Joe's in Vista. I found everything I wanted to purchase and a lot more. I believe I will be shopping here often.”
“Stopped there last night on our way out of town to purchase a teddy ruxpin bear
We we're cold, hungry and thirsty. The clerk at the register was so kind, professional and pleasent to have met.”
“Love this place, they always have good selection of Ukrainian and Eastern European Food. Also they have interesting point programs- I get caviar
from it frequently ?”
“Popped in here to grab some jugs of water—heard the prices were good, but I’d never shopped at Aldi before. Honestly, not impressed. I know a lot of people like it, but the store felt kind of sparse, hardly any workers around, and no one at the cashier when I was checking out. ? Some items, like the strawberries, were decent and had good prices, but overall the shopping experience didn’t wow me. Nothing compares to Trader Joe’s across the street—same great prices but with all the fun, creative, festive items and that sense of community, plus all your favorite little Trader Joe’s goodies. ?
I might swing by Aldi occasionally for a jug of water, but otherwise… eh.”
“Complete shout out to the bakery department!!! They did an amazing job on the cake I ordered for a combined birthday party. Every detailed was spot on. I would definitely order from them again!!!”
“My wife wanted to go see the outdoor market at the Meadows. Once we got there we saw the sign for Meadows deli and market. So after we walked around we made our way to the deli. I got the tri-tip cali burrito, wife got Ruben sandwich and daughter got Italian hot sub. All out of this world. The staff was so nice and helpful when I asked about the menu items. I can’t wait to go back for the pizza. Thank you for a nice experience ?”

“The best carneceria near base!
Amazing prices with quality meats. Super helpful staff that excel in communication and planning.
Military friendly shop that supports the community. 10/10 recommend for any catering event. Mike is the man to talk to. He will do you right!!”
“This location is awesome! I got $298 worth of groceries for $151.71. They have all the same brands as the other stores and lots of fresh produce and herbs. My cashier, Michelle, was so helpful and kind. She helped me save even more by showing me how to use the app. I’m so glad I found this place!!”
“Staff are very friendly and helpful. Great prices, mostly a liquor store with great selections but also quick stop for 2 lbs of bread and milk if in a bind since it's one of only a few spots for a couple miles for the twin oaks neighborhood”
“Another great grocery store option in Vista. Stater Bros. has great prices, friendly employees, and a good selection of everyday items. Got some dogfood trays for $1 here. The store is well organized and easy to shop.
Vista has a lot of good grocery options depending on what you’re looking for. There’s Trader Joe's, Northgate González, Frazier Farms Market, Sprouts Farmers Market, Albertsons … and even Walmart and Target have pretty nice grocery sections too.
Nice to have another solid grocery shopping option in the area. ?”
“What a lovely store! The best quality of just about everything! The produce is beautiful and fresh. The employees are kind and helpful. Everything is well stocked and organized. There's a mellow nice vibe in here. Got some delicious mangos and will be back again in the future ❤”
“I love this store! Best butcher shop around. They are very accommodating for cutting meats and the best selection of seafood in town. Their Burgundy Marinated Tri-tip is unbeatable.
Their own brand sourdough is terrific. I like the unsliced loaf.
Sometimes the shelves are not fully stocked but the front office listens to suggestions. Bottom line... shop local”
“I love this store! I like the layout and the variety. Ever since they had their remodel I’ve loved coming here. I like that they always has new items and the ready section is fresh and yummy.”
“I love coming here for the sandwiches. ? They offer gluten free bread. You can make it a meal with chips and a bottle of water. My favorites are the turkey or chicken salad sandwiches. Before I leave, I like to stop by the bulk bins and get a little chocolate for dessert.”

“The guy in the deli who works 6 days a week prepares my salami like an angel. Its prrfectly sliced with the little wax paper thingies in between to keep the stack fresh. Now, if they, the albertsons inventory gods of dried meats brought back the primo taglio brand genoa salami from wherever they have recently permanently banished, I would be suspicious under the impression that it would indeed be too good to be true. Primo Taglio with the amazing job the deli guy does for me. Thank you awesome deli man. I hope primo taglio makes it way back to the genoa corner of the deli case.”
“Not the worst meat market I've been too for sure. They had the meats, beer, and typical groceries that you'd expect to find in a place like this. The prices are about right in line with the like shops in the area. Pretty good meat though. Not too upset with this place.”
“Always enjoy coming here. However, the past two weeks I noticed that the vanilla flavored whey protein powder (1 lb bag)that used to be like $8.99 for a long time suddenly jumped to like $18.99?? That's crazy. I hope that's not the case with the other GO stores. I'll probably have to start getting my whey protein from winco or somewhere else that's more affordable. Also the saffron road enchiladas (frozen entrees) aren't that great. I think they have less sodium in general than other frozen enchiladas, which is good for health but the flavor was lacking. All I could taste was cumin and some chipotle. Def recommend making them yourself over this brand ?”
“Selection may be limited but they have the best prices around and have a lot of good stuff within that limited selection. Food 4 less may have more to choose from, for example, but this place has higher quality items at even better prices and the cashiers are usually very friendly and helpful”
“I love their customer service and the fact that they had the safety precautions like have to wear a mask, one way aisles, and maintain six feet from the start. I only wish more of their customers understood what one way means.”
“The parking lot is pretty tight. The store is different from the other locations I'm used to, it feels like the layout is reversed and goes right to left instead of left to right.
It is generally well organized and clean, you can tell it's up kept or just has less traffic. The staff are friendly, I got rung up by a nice guy named Nicholas. They seem quick to open another line.
The important part: the Aisle of Shame is easy to browse and get through without being trashed. They must have someone going through often to fix it.”
“I love this tortilleria. The fact that I can custom order my masa for tamales without lard is amazing. So accommodating but you need to order ahead of time. I made the mistake of thinking I could handle my one woman tamale masa making show, I cannot. They pulled through for me at a crucial moment in my process.”
“Something about this grocery outlet, they do it right well stocked with things I need friendly staff clean store and spacious. Of all the grocery outlets in San Diego county I'd rate this one the best.”
“They kept their organization at its peak. Everything is put away in its proper spot, and there is no mess on the floor. The shopping process is fast because everything is so neat. That's the nicest Albertsons I've ever seen.”
“This place is the best!! My family and I have tried more new fruit in the 4 years we've lived close than I have my entire life. Amazing avocado selection! I'm learning so many different types! Local raw honey too. Much love from your #1 cherimoya fan!”
“So, I come by here 2 times/ week on my way home.
I moved here 3 yrs. ago and have enjoyed the friendliness of ALL the guys here AND good deals.
There has ALWAYS been what I need in a pinch!
Quick grub, absolutely every beverage known to man.
And they ALWAYS have 'buy 2 for X deal price' ; ends up cheaper than Supermarket.
Great place, guys. Thanks, CZH”
