I love Trader Joe's. Good food at a great price point. Customer service is always great. I especially love going for their flower selection. The only gripe I have is over their parking situation. I've come and gone numerous times due to a lack of parking. This last time, I had a Karen/Kevin couple swipe the parking spot I was waiting for. Luckily, I live close by so I can try again, but I've had more failures than successes at this point.

I love Trader Joe's. The flavors of the foods, the inexpensive cards, the super fresh flowers, the delicious wines which come with employee recommendations and very friendly and helpful staff keep me coming back. I like their seasonal foods and the fact that the checkers bag up my selections for me. The negatives are the limited parking (the lot is way too small) and the produce items tend to be wrapped in a lot of plastic. Other than that, it's a great store and I love shopping here. Keep it up TJ!

Fantastic people working here. Always helpful. Parking at this location is a bit of a struggle, but it's worth it in the long run. Love the chicken corn dogs! They come out with such a nice crispy crust in the air fryer.

Trader Joe's fan for life right here! Hi, hello!! The customer service at all Trader Joe's is amazing but, I especially love the team over at the La Mesa store. They are always excited to share new items with me whenever I'm there and, give me tips on what to pass up and what to actually get as well. There have been times when they randomly will walk up to me and ask me if I want a cookie or something sweet. I never pass up the chance lol!! They never miss!! For this trip I needed a few items to make an appetizer and dessert for a gathering. I needed something quick to make and delicious of course. The items that I got were: Steamed Lentils Bruschetta Sauce Crumbled Feta Crackers for dipping Dried oranges Strawberries Dates Biscotti I made a lentil dip/salad with the lentils, bruschetta sauce and feta I made a small dessert board with the strawberries, oranges, dates and biscotti Everyone at the gathering fell in love with the dip and the freshness of everything that was on the dessert board. It was all a hit and took me less than 20 mins to make it all. Win!! I will definitely be remaking both!! The ambiance at this location is always fun and inviting! The store is always clean and, there is always, always someone around to ask questions to.

Wow! What a spectacular trip to Trader Joe's today. A wonderful young woman, named Olivia, was a great help. She not only had a sweet conversation with me at checkout, but proceeded to help me bring my groceries to my car! Management sure did well with this one!

Great store but I will never be cool enough to ask the staff questions. I have to bring my daughter. She's in band.

One of the best Trader Joe's! Great staff and always very well stocked, even those hard to get your hands on seasonal items! Parking is a bot of a challenge, but worth circling the lit a couple of times to pop into the store.

I love this place, but hate not being able to browse because you don't want to create more in-store traffic jams. Maybe that's a good thing... otherwise, I'd buy way more than I planned to! Thank goodness for TJ's fabulous "Fearless Flyer" guide to each month's goodies. Normally, I'll only shop here when they first open or an hour before closing, to avoid crowds, long check-out lines, and employees trying their best to keep shelves stocked. All of the TJs employees that I've ever dealt with have been top-notch: friendly, eager to help & polite (so rare!!). TJs quality & prices are still amazing after all these years. Great selection of frozen meals in a variety of cuisines makes it easy (& inexpensive!) to try something new. I just tried one of their frozen pizzas (garlic & pesto on a "deep-fried" crust): awesome!! They do seem better suited to shopping for 1 or 2 people; TJs most definitely does not sell "big box" sized products, so it wouldn't be my go-to store for feeding a family of 4 or more.Bottom line: when you sell delicious healthy, quality food (non-food stuff, too!) at great prices, people will always come back for more! So why only 4 stars? Parking is often challenging, and it can be very hard to find something when the aisles are clogged with other shoppers, carts, strollers, kids & employees stocking shelves. Whenever I go to TJs, I always bring alot of patience.

TJs was my go-to store. But now I must diversify. Their prices are just as much as everyone else’s.

I like coming here it's sometimes crowded I like how they give out samples of foods you can also ask to try something before you buy it as well (Google said I'd get 5 points for updating this review)
