I have to bring attention to the Stater Brothers Meat Department. I have considered Stater Brothers to be one of the best places to buy meat. I am yet to be disappointed, and with Christmas out of the way I am able to finally thank them. Christmas Day we decided to grill some steaks on the grill and Stater Brothers on the South 79 was much obliged. I order the Prime cut Filets and the Butcher had them ready Christmas Eve morning. They were to die for and could have possibly put any great Steakhouse Restaurants to shame. The cuts were top of the line and literally you almost didn't need a steak knife to cut them. A big Thank you to Stater Brothers for making our Christmas Dinner epic.

After visiting a fabulous Stater Bros. Market in Winchester CA, I was anxious to try out the one in my hometown! Unfortunately, it wasn't nearly as great as the other one. This Temecula market is located at Temecula & Redhawk Parkways across the street from Kohls - a convenient location with lots of parking. Produce section was great - fresh and nicely organized. Deli meats were so-so - I got some of their premium brand "Cornershop Cuts" turkey breast and it wasn't nearly as good as the Boar's Head deli meats that I usually get from Ralph's nearby. I've heard that their selection, quality, and price of butcher meats is great. I wasn't shopping for that this time, but may check it out in the future. My biggest complaint is that they don't have self-checkout lanes and the woman checking me out was incredibly SLOW. I wanted to jump in and do it myself; I could not believe how much time she took to handle and scan every item. I was trying to expedite the process by bagging things myself, but that too was slowed down by having three different baggers step in at various points to bag one or two items before they were pulled away to price check or some such task for someone else. Seriously, they need to revamp checkout to include self lanes and speeding up the scan process. I observed other lanes taking as long as mine! I always do self-checkout and the absence of this would keep me from coming back unless I had nothing to do and nowhere else to be - it was that painful!Stater Bros. does not have a customer rewards program, although there is a sign-up to get digital deals. My checkout person started to explain it to me, but I was so desperate to speed things up that I told her I'd just look it up online.

Be careful when buying the midnight melons, I didn't realize till we got home that they were around $25 each and taste the same as a normal seedless melon

this photo is proof I had to care for my finger that was slit open by the deli Mac and cheese 1lb container when I was opening it. Temecula stater bros, do better. I've been wasting my bandaids on this tiny slit on my finger not saying the store isn't good , just sayin you should step up and be better than other stater bros by making the containers more safe but yeah the max and cheese was pretty good you just have to heat it up

My niece & I use to come to this Staters all the time, it was our go to for everything! Up until several years back when she stopped wanting to come with me out of nowhere. Turns out one of the employees (janitor to be exact) could not stop staring at her to the point where she would feel so uncomfortable she feared going to Staters. Keep in mind my niece is only 14 years old! I am absolutely disgusted by this man! at first I thought maybe this was all a misunderstanding until I caught him checking her out with my own eyes !!. Sorry starters but we will never step foot into another statersbros EVER AGAIN & females pls be careful around this perv its obvious he has no shame!

Maybe I'll leave a better review if the situation improves. But this was my first time going to this location. It was lacking. The cashier was distracted and totally took way too long to ring up my groceries. My young child was getting restless as the cashier was zoning out/daydreaming and working in slow motion. The bagger guy left too which made things worse and everyone had someone bagging their groceries in every lane except the young lady with a child..he was ignoring my payment methods so every time I swiped my card I had to ask if it was accepted even though I knew he just wasn't paying attention. I had to confirm the total because he was too busy to tell it to me. Can I just get paid for buying my groceries and doing all the work the cashiers are supposed to?

Employees at this store are on their game! The only attitude from them is kindness! They walk by and offer help with a smile. The meat and seafood counter people know what they are doing , prices, cuts and how to cook them. Always ready to take your order and offer up extra service. I ask for a bigger package and they dig through to find them. I asked for wings flat and drums, no flats, no problem I will open another box if you would like. Bravo to the managers too! I see you working with your employees and encouraging a good work ethic! Store is clean and there are cashiers no self service!

"Where's the beef"? Tell Clara it is in the back of the store. Stater Bros has the beef and so much more. The butcher area is awsome. They will custom cut, season, whatever you want at no extra charge. Want to kick up your beef ribs and they will give you a slab of chuck ribs which is damn near the size of dino ribs for about 1/3 the cost. Double bone chops, no worry, just ask. Steaks, ribs, ground meat, chicken, it's all good. All the butchers are ready to help. Look for the specials. They have some sort of special each week in their weekly ad. It always has something from the meat department. If you are a friggen vegan, no worry, they have enough veggies to keep you and the rest of the rabbits happy. Stater Bros is my favorite market in Temecula. Remember to visit the butcher area. They are always willing to help and you will be rewarded with cuts much superior to that of other markets. Big five stars from me.

Usually the food is well made. Today they literally gave me a bunch of burnt potato wedges. Sucks!

Linda was super helpful. While working the register she went out of her way running the isles trying to help me find an item (liquid aminos). We didn't find it but she sprinted down three isles and it wasn't for a lack of effort.

I know it is a valuable service for someone to pick out your food so you can just drive up and pick up food but... I have never used Instacart and I wasn't aware that they were messaging me to make substitutions. I never pressed Y to authorize them so I was bummed to find that my order contained a box of Chocolate Cookies; I ordered Vanilla as I am allergic to Chocolate, 3/4 of a pound of ground beef; I ordered 2 pounds!, and some rando pork chopish looking thing; not on my list at all. I got home and couldn't cook the foods I intended to and now have most of the ingredients but no beef for burritos or lasagna, and you all know how expensive lasagna ingredients are so to not have the most important part, I am a meat-eater, is frustrating. So manager said, they don't have ground beef in the morning until the butchers get there. Well, my order was a full hour and a half early.... perhaps they should have waited until they had the full order to call me for pickup. I would rather go there at my selected time and have all the items. I asked if perhaps they had some chubs of beef that could have been added to the order and of course they did but they didn't 'think' to do that! Amazing! As for the Chocolate Cookies... sorry... Vanilla and Chocolate are not interchangeable! And the rando pork chop... I put it in the freezer with the cookies and will return it when I am able to. I am also to blame for not knowing that they were trying to reach me, but I also never gave them permission to substitute. I won't be using Instacart ever again. I go to Vons and it is a lot easier to order with (their screen doesn't refresh and require you to go back after each addition... so annoying!) and I always get what I need for my recipes.

Stater is always one of my favorite stores. They always have a wide variety of food and fresh produce. They've also got the best meat around! I'd pick this store over Ralph's or Albertsons any day.

I've lived in the area for ten years now and i try to avoid this place as much a possible. Whenever i do go here i think maybe it'll be different, wrong. All the employees seem miserable and unfriendly i always leave this place in a bad mood because of how the workers are even when i try to engage in small talk i get one word answers, like I'm ruining their day by talking to them. Screw these guys, y'all suck.

This store is the closest to my home and also they have bomb chicken salad in the deli. However the staff is rude every visit! You may ask is the chicken salad worth the emotional abuse? Possibly. Every time I shop at Stater bros I wish I had drove the extra mile to Ralph's.

Here it is Easter Sunday around 5 pm and I want to thank the employees who were at the sandwich counter and the chicken counter who went out of their way to drop chicken orders and made a large fresh italian sub sandwich for me. They were the best!!!
