We just moved to the area and this trader Joe is a bit smaller than the one in Brookline but it really seems to have everything we would need, except wine!

Clean, well stocked, friendly staff, and reasonable prices. They could definitely use more parking due to the volume of customers but that's not something they can necessarily change. Lines usually move quickly and cashiers are generally more pleasant than other grocery stores.
