Redditors write that Smart & Final has the best, juiciest rotisserie chickens. However, sadly, this location does not sell them so I could not try one. They do have some other deals though, mainly their meat and produce when it goes on sale. Some cleaning items such as sprays also appeared to be cheaper than Target.

Beware do not buy items like produce or dairy and check everything for expiration. The location is very convenient for me due to location and it’s the only reason I have shopped here. I have seen fruits and vegetables rotting on the shelves here. I have recently been having my dairy products going bad on me when I purchased here despite it being a week before the best by date and opening it that day, initially thought it might be my fridge the first couple of times but I do not have this issue when I buy dairy elsewhere.

One of closest grocery store to us, we frequently shop here as it has reasonable prices, and I know I won't spend a fortune as if I venture to Costco! Fruits & vegetable selection is not as large as you'd find at Sprouts, Ranch 99 or similar places, but when looking for convenience and overall value, S & F is the place to shop.

Had what I need. Quick shopping at the smaller, faster warehouse store.

The store was clean and well organized. The staff was helpful. Their specials were clearly marked. It's a store my husband enjoys visiting.8/30 small avocados are 3 for $1.11/15 Avocados still 3 for $1.Looks like they are busy stocking up for the week before Thanksgiving.

I work for Instacart so I frequently have to shop here. Really feel disrespected at this store more often than not and I've only had four orders here. I highly discourage supporting establishments that don't show respect to shoppers like myself who are trying to make a living. You won't ever see me shopping here for personal groceries.

I only go to this store located on clairemont Mesa Blvd because it's fast and convenient. There is a reason most people don't buy a lot of groceries here. It's pricey. The worse is that the quality of their produce is awful. It goes bad quickly! Everytime! Also bagged salads. Almond milks. A regular milk first Street brand which is their own brand. It went bad after 7 days. I don't know if they buy cheap food before it expires from stores like Vons but if you just to grab a couple items fast that aren't perishable or alcohol it's ok.

I thought this store would have the soft-serve ice cream in stock after I saw it at the El Cajon/Fletcher Parkway store. This ice cream was not in stock at the Clairemont Mesa location.

Love this place! They open at 6am which allows me to shop before work. My roommate has liver disease and I cool a lot of veggies for us so I shop there every three days. They hands down have the the best prices and friendliest people working. Especially Kristen and Maxwell! Thanks for making my shopping experience awesome!

Cashiers are rude, but the store itself is okay. There's rarely ever a person working the produce.

I have been shopping there for 2 years and the service always was unpleasant. Last time I was asked to leave my bag, but there is no locker. I don't feel comfortable to leave my personal bag in an unsecure place, so I did not want to continue shopping. Also, I had problems with incorrect total price in my check for 3-4 time already. I hope the quality of service at S&F will increase in the nearest future.
