“I think $0.69 tacos might be the cheapest tacos around anywhere. Either way, they're really good and not at all watered down due to the cost. Available at this price on Tuesdays and Fridays, but be prepared to wait in line. Roughly 30-45 minutes, made more bearable by the samples they sometimes offer while you're waiting in line.
The tacos themselves are street style, meats cooked and seasoned nicely, and the folks at the store are friendly and efficient.”
“The sweetest ever cashier Erin saved my daughter. At checkout, my daughter was sitting in the top seat of the cart and her cousin was helping unload groceries. While trying to reach the bottom of the cart, her cousin was hanging on the side and the whole cart tipped over and almost landed on her and my daughter would have smacked her head really bad. The (gorgeous might I add) cashier Erin swooped into action and saved the day. She caught the cart mid fall. My chicken Caesar wrap was the only casualty and they promptly sent someone to replace it with a new one. She even remembered to give my kids stickers at the end. I can’t say thank you enough. What an amazing employee and the coolest ever grocery store.”
“Thank you so much for being the best store in the nation. Seriously. What a great family of people. The meat market, vegetables and choices are excellent!. The merchandising, facing and stocking gives me joy rather than fear after a pandemic of empty grocery store shelves.Try their pre cooked lobster and a ribeye daily.”
“Think about it, you can see how amazing THIS store is just by noticing the staff doesn't change, you then start remembering employees names and build a great rapport with. If it's a great place to work, it has to be a great place to shop.”

“My new favorite is the Tuscan herb olive oil and red wine vinegar. I love this place we visit san clemente once a year and I'm always buying a case to send back home the owner is so sweet and helpful and I think its the chef they do classes with I met last time was awesome who introduced me to this mixture. Everything I've tasted though is amazing and rich not what you can get in the grocery store. Totally worth the money for the quality. They answer every question you have and are always so helpful. Can't wait to go back in a couple months for a birthday present to myself.”
“I'm so glad I found this shop online while searching for something special for a friends local (virtual) wedding. The woman who helped me was so patient and took the time to find what I needed and went out of her way to make sure it got delivered to my friend. Really appreciate the sense of hospitality I got from this shop - hope to visit in person one day!”
“We stayed at a hotel nearby and they basically have everything you'd need. We needed stuff like beer, snacks, paper towels, souvenirs and a shovel to dig a hole. They had it all included much more like fishing gear and rentals. Was very convenient and open late.”
“George, Sam, and the rest of the team are the best ever. They have a great selection of craft beers, spirits, and wines. Stop in for your favorite drink or mixer and some good conversation. Awesome local, family owned business.”

This store gives off a calm, easygoing vibe the moment you walk in ??. Everything feels organized, clean, and not overwhelming, which makes shopping actually enjoyable instead of stressful.
The selection is solid — fresh produce, bakery items, and everyday essentials are all easy to find ??. You don’t feel rushed here, and the atmosphere lets you take your time and just move at your own pace.
What I liked the most is the balance — it’s not too busy, not too empty, just right for a relaxed grocery stop ?✨. It feels like a place where you can quickly grab what you need or spend a bit more time browsing.
Overall, a dependable spot with a good energy that makes you want to come back again.

“Good grocery store. Generally helpful staff. Plenty of parking. Restrooms are in the back of the store. Prices are higher than those at Trader Joe's for similar products. Decent raw options for milk and cheese. Lots of organic and healthy food to pick from.”
“I go here all the time to get food and the place is great, nice staff, only down fall is now they close earlier than the set close time. They use to close at like 2 in the morning like 2-3 years ago always open till like 1:30-2:00. Now it at 1 am and they close from like 12:00-12:25 never open till 1.”
“Used to be expensive but if you use the app and buy on sale you can do pretty well. Selection is good they always have about to expire salads at super low prices same for bakery and meat etc. So I'd your on a budget and can freeze some things out can actually be a budget store. Selection is very good isles are narrow so took off a star. Plenty of parking. Staff is good mostly but a few could use some training.”
“Entered the store with my toddler in search of a toy for him. The toys are at the far left corner of the store, and scattered elsewhere as well. I wanted to write this review specifically for their store brand chicken noodle soup, which is honestly the best store brand chicken noodle soup I have tasted thus far. The chicken actually looks and tastes like chicken, and not like cat food (not that I know what cat food tastes like.) the staff was friendly and the aisles were full, and the prices were really good. Or at least way better than Bay Area prices (so perhaps) the bar is set low.”

“This is a smaller commissary compared to the thevother commissary on the south side of the base at Pacific Plaza. It still has everything you need, though, and nice employees.”
“How always easy to do returns to find the products I need they never change the inventory to a new location, which is great for seniors or young people in a hurry and their prices are always fair easy Peezy!”
“I’d give these guys more than 5 stars if it was possible. They have exactly what I need, every single time. I’m in and out in no time. And I know I’m getting some of the cleanest/ highest quality ingredients on the market. Plus the staff is always pretty knowledgeable on the products, so it just makes it that much better. I don’t go anywhere else for supplements”
