“I love going to Trader Joe's. It's easy to get what you need and the options are all reasonably priced. They have interesting snacks, beers, and frozen foods. Lots of holiday chocolates too.”
“We used this Trader Joe’s to pickup flowers for our wedding! Go ahead of time (a few weeks prior) and show photos of your wedding colors. We worked with an amazing associate named Alex who helped order and set aside a full cart of perfect flowers to be picked up the day before our wedding. They even let us take the buckets for transport (about 8 total!)
Both the blooms and the greenery were beautiful. Assembling the bouquets with my bridesmaids was so much fun, and one of my favorite memories of the weekend. It smelled like heaven. We also saved so much money doing it this way!
Thank you Hillsdale Trader Joe’s!”
“It was great. Lots of lots of vendors. Lots of food lenders bought some wonderful kalamata bread and some fresh salmon. They also had another stall with smoked salmon. Everything was excellent. It's very happy. Prices are a little high but I think it's worth it for the quality and the freshness definitely will go back”
“Best place to buy restaurant supplies.
They now carry distilled Water ?
They have at least 10 rows of all kinds of soda that you could think of. I usually wait for their sales on sodas
And talk about candy and snack, they have at least 15 rolls of candy and snack that you could ever think of, and and you can find it here.
They also have many different kinds of beef that you will only able to get at Costco Business center.”
“Amazing selection of unique and tasty snacks! The staff is always friendly and helpful, making my shopping trips enjoyable. I love discovering new products every time I go!”
“I took my mom and friends who were visiting from Japan to this Trader Joe’s location. The cashier who helped us went above and beyond—she was incredibly kind and made all of us feel so welcome and comfortable. Even though the interaction was brief, it became a very special memory for us. She was truly wonderful. I only wish I had gotten her name!”

“Loco Moco was delicious with tiny cute Spam Honu found! We also ordered Mochiko Chicken which paired well with extra curry side! We also tried the salmon belly mushibi which was huge and nicely cut into two.”
“I absolutely love this Turkish store! ???
It’s a little corner of Turkey right here — packed with all kinds of delicious treats: traditional sweets, spices, fresh meat, and so many interesting goodies that you’ll want to try everything!
The atmosphere is so warm and cozy. The people who work here are incredibly kind and welcoming — it honestly feels like visiting friends ?
This shop totally deserves to be a local landmark. If you’re nearby, don’t miss the chance to stop by. You won’t regret it — it’s a feast for the senses! ?♥️?”
“We ordered sandwiches here and they were very good. I tried the OMG tripe and it was delicious. However, there were only two people working, so service was a bit slow. It took about an hour to prepare four sandwiches. Since it was around noon, it’s understandable that it would be busy, but having additional staff during peak hours would definitely improve the experience.”
“Great prices and really good variety! If you go in without specific brands in mind, you can get everything you need. The store is clean, well stocked, and the employees are friendly. There is parking on both sides of the store, so it's never too hard to find a spot. Well worth the trip!”

And of course, I always get my produce here instead of at larger chains.”
“They have a really fresh product me and my wife usually go every weekend to buy fresh milk and meat and eggs. They have all products fresh and super nice and also the people super good too”
“I’ve been a loyal customer of this grocery store for years, and it’s the go-to place for San Mateo residents like me. They have an impressive selection of fresh produce and other essentials, and I always find what I need here. One of their standout products is Yumbini rice mix, which is incredibly delicious. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great rice option.”
“Went here looking for garlic but was surprised to see the vast selection of vegetables. This store has so much culture and friendly workers. I let with some meat from the butchers as well as some Mexican treats.

“I love love love this produce shop. Everything is so fresh, with fantastic quality and lots of variety despite being a small store. The shop offers a little bit of everything, fruits, vegetables, dairy items, cold cuts, canned foods, fresh bread, coffee, tea, jams, all sorts of flours, pretty much any kitchen staple one could need, and the owners take extra care in their selection. I have never once bought anything from them that didn't taste great or got spoiled quickly. Everything is always at the peak of freshness in this store, and the prices are always fair. I have stopped buying fresh produce and fruits from anywhere else and exclusively shop here.
Highly recommend this shop.”

Overall, it was a positive experience and I appreciate the consistency and value this store provides.”

“Very busy location. Customers tend to cooperate with each other. Very smooth operation. Do not be turned off by the number of vehicles. Faster turn around than Costco. And, has the convenience store inside which Costco stations lack.”
