Grocery Stores in Marina del Rey, CA

“Great Trader Joe's with friendly and helpful staff. Great prices, nice selections. Completely ran out of eggs on the day that I went, but ehh it so be like that sometimes, no biggie... But the parking lot though... Overly cramped, extremely difficult to wiggle your way in and out of a spot because of how compact all the parking lines are setup. Felt like trying to get out of there during typical lunch hour was an accident waiting to happen. IMO, I'd say it's better to park at the route down the street and walk over. Much safer and stress-free that way.”

“Honestly I come here for the deli! I loveeee their Italian sandwiches/paninis. The owner is so sweet and it’s made fresh on the spot. If you’re looking for alcohol, this is THE spot on the block. Plenty of street parking and close parking to the beach!”

“I love this market. They are the true definition of your friendly neighborhood store. It is operated by a young family, which is absolutely inspiring and also so rare to find these days. They also care a lot about the products that they carry. A lot of health friendly products. They carry one of my favorite brands, Raw Farms dairy products, so I happily visit their market at least once a week. Major kudos to these guys for being super friendly and professional.”

“Honestly you can never go wrong with Gelsons. Their little cheesecakes are a MUST, don't leave without getting at least two to go and two for your significant other!”

“Y'all, I know what you're thinking. Why am I giving Ralph's 5 stars? Well, a couple reasons:- both the employees working in the aisles and at the checkout are always happy and willing to help. Years ago, When I first moved here, I couldn't figure out where to find the grits. I asked for help and while the employee didn't have the slightest clue what I was even referring to, they still went on the adventure, determined to track it down. We finally found it in the baking aisle (not in the breakfast aisle, I know, quite bizarre but that's a whole other topic unrelated to this post). That said, their helpfulness still stands 7 years later- their seafood selection is pretty good. Yes, while the wild Alaskan king salmon might not always make an appearance, their other seafood options are still just as good. Every time I cook for friends, they're always shocked to hear the seafood was from Ralph's. "But it's so fresh!" yes, it is fresh and delicious. Plus their Alaskan king crab legs are a steal. You can get a couple pounds for the same price you'd pay at boiling crab for 1 or even WF. - the Ralph's shopper card always has amazing deals and just makes you feel like you're winning at the grocery game- the wine and champagne - don't get me started! Buy 6 bottles (mix and match) and get an additional 30% off??? I stock up every time, especially if a birthday is coming up. Nothing says best-friend-for-the-win when you show up to the party with an $80 bottle of Veuve Rose Champagne. Plus, you'll be feeling extra special knowing you only spent $56 (maybe even less if there was an additional Ralph's discount that day)!- the sushi is actually really good! I mean, it's grocery store sushi, so know your benchmark but as someone who has dined at n'naka 8 times, this says something about the quality Ralph's is putting out- the store is also clean and uses some warm / soft lighting near the produce section. They also recently redid the flooring, making it feel a bit more cozy (which we all need! Avoiding Shopping cart collisions is stressful!)- for a while they had a solid variety of eggs, although ever since the egg shortage, it seems they've been a little slower to get their egg variety back on track - but there are still some solid organic free range options- Their flowers last a lot longer than most of the ones I've purchased at TJs and WF- they have a solid cheese selection (although TJs does have slightly better pricing on the same cheeses)- their produce (fruits and veggies) don't go bad overnight; they hold up for a couple days and they usually have a pretty solid selection to choose from, both organic and non-organic- there's a Starbucks inside the store- there are two entrances / exits - the parking lot is well lit and I've never not found a spot- there are other shops nearby (restaurants and banks)- Burton Chase Park is literally down the street. Perfect spot to take your Ralph's groceries for a picnic - treat them since they're treating you. But seriously, the park overlooks the sea lions and boats; you can even catch the sunset if you time it right”

“Quality produce as well as some otherwise hard to find items at reasonable prices. The only reason that I don't give this store 5 stars is the terrible clutter in the aisles and the stock carts left sitting together blocking some paths completely and restricting others to barely more than one shopping cart width.”

“Turkey sandwich and salmon tacos were excellent Douglas and patty were so helpful and professional. Great service freer food. Look forward to having something else next time. Thx skys”

“Super clean with an abundance of products to choose from. Especially love all the organic produce that is available and how well stocked and displayed the whole store is. The service folks are friendly, polite, and helpful.”

“One of the greatest Ralph's. I enjoy it's in Marina del Rey, it's safe, regular and armed security, lots of easy parking, pharmacy, Starbucks, and the employees are friendly.The isles aren't as cramped like some of the other Ralph's stores.They have an excellent deli department.They do have an ATM and a key kiosk but the kiosk currently cannot copy and cut keys on the spot because it needs maintenance.Although Ralph's say they have a Western Union, they do NOT have the service available to send or receive money. However, you can purchase a Western Union money order.I recommend shopping here!”
