Review №1

Havent shopped here in a long time. Had a pretty good shopping experience. First they added more parking spaces towards the back. Next, they have disinfectant wipes next to the shopping carts outside. I actually like this set up better. Most stores have the wipes as soon as you enter the store which stalls people behind the customer cleaning their cart.They reorganized the interior. Liquors and beverages are now up front and in a corner.Cleaning agents are in an aisle. Although busy, the store was clean and well stocked. The cashier line moved quickly and staff was friendly and smiling.Normally, heavy metal music would be blasting throughout the store. Not this time, so nice.All in all, great prices and a positive shopping experience.

Aisles are narrow and store seems poorly lit, small, and understocked. Parking lot is small and should definitely be repaved. Staff is friendly and helpful and deals are often better than at other grocery stores.

Best customer service for years. Love the crab cakes, catfish, and the many seafood products, that they have to offer.

Excellent! I was driving trough Redwood City and decided to drop by. Large variety of products and the produce is very fresh! I wish the one in Santa Rosa was as nice as this one.

Great prices. I get that they are similar to a warehouse store; so only a limited of items are offered to select from. However, Id still like to see more options. Ie; I shop for two in the household, so the big box bulk items dont do me any good. It would be nice to see some items available in smaller packages.

I went into Smart & Final shortly after they opened this morning was able to get all I came for and was pleasantly surprised the prices were pretty much the same as before the pandemic shut downs. Restocking was still in process, all workers were wearing masks and the new norm safety precautions were in place. At the early time I was there I did not see a customer in any area I was in. As a senior citizen with a lifetime history of respiratory problems I must be extra careful now, always masked and gloved when I must leave my home...I felt safe and comfortable in my shopping experience at Smart & Final.

If you have a party coming up, or large family and want to purchase in bulk, I found this place one of the best. Catering and hosting supplies, better than Costco.. Not the place to get food for a single night, or family event. Make sure you have storage space, not a fancy looking place, but second to none to any regular market

I stop in this store on the way to the office. It is always a mess. Every time I have gone in, this store is messy & dirty. This may be a result of the hour I shop. I always shop around 8:00AM at this location. I am hesitant to purchase fresh produce. I buy packaged items when I’m in a pinch.Smart & Final in general has good prices. The employees here are nice & helpful. And YES they do speak English. Some speak Spanish also.I would give it 5 stars if it was cleaner.

A medium-sized, cheap grocery store. Has a small fresh produce section, reasonable prices, with a limited selection that varies. Check the expiration dates before buying. Does have a frozen section in the back. The workers are fine, not especially friendly or quick though. Small parking lot.

+ Good prices and great selection good mix between large costco like packages and regular size. Large vegetables and fruit section.- Ways between shelfs are narrow and hard to get true with shopping cart.Freezer are old and products are often covered in ice.Update:They removed most of the displays who were blocking the isles, now its way easier to walk with shopping carts
