This take away sushi was super good. The lady who works the sushi stand was super nice to me and my future husband and daughter she helped us select our sushi. The sushi is conveniently located inside a Whole Foods market store.

Big, open, spacious grocery store with more organic and healthy options. Many items you can't find anywhere else. Top quality merchandise, much of it locally sourced. Yes, it's expensive. I bought $26 worth of apples here today and was upset when I got outside and dropped both of them. Okay, that's a joke - but yeah, it's a bit pricey. Great store and great stuff though.

This place is great , huge selection of organic and non organic items. The reason for the four starts is because the whole chickens are not out and it's 6:04. Whole Food doesn't close until 9 ! I was told there was no more coming out for the next 3 hours which is concerning . They should have them on rotation they sell Out quick .

This place used to be okay but lately the lines are terribly long. During a pandemic, I worry about standing in line next to someone for 25 minutes. I asked the Customer Service Manager what the issue was. He said that many employees left and they are trying to hire new people. Honestly, I think that it is probably cause its corporate and they don't pay their employees enough. Trader Joes seems to be able to retain their employees. Also, the vegetables seem to be pretty poor quality for a Whole Foods.

I came here to return an Amazon order. Decided to grab lunch since I was here. And when I got to the cash register I didn't even know that I could use my prime to get extra discounts until Alejandra a cashier asked me if I was a prime member.? I then told her I was and she told me to pull up my app and she scanned it and I saved some money! I am thankful that she did not assume that I did not have Amazon prime and I asked Meme. She rocks!

I like to go with friends to this place with my highest recommendations. I visit this place often. This recommendation is always successful. The dishes they serve are flavorable and the stuff is generous and cooperative. always when we go to this place we enjoy a lovely evening. I warmly recommend this restaurant.

Seriously my favorite place to get groceries now . Not only do they have the freshest organic ingredients but they are also at one of the best deals I would say for certain items! Hubby and I are walking distance to this one and we usually get our meats veggies wines stainless from here and the quality is always way up up. I must say they are giving everyone a run for their money! They also have a bakery we have orders really great cakes from her like the Chantilly cake! They have a hot bar even though now someone serves you versus it being an open bar! They have a sushi section, ramen, and also pizza and a deli! I would also like to mention that you can order two hour delivery with Prime now for little to no cost plus tip off course ! Highly recommend Whole Foods !

Whole Foods is where I ogle at all the awesome products before inevitably buying a bunch of unplanned stuff. Oh wait- that's Target. Brightly lit, clean-ish, organized, with helpful workers milling about, there is the usual crowd of consumers who have no problem spending an arm and leg for groceries and those who blissfully ignore the receipt after their items are rung up. I'm the latter. I keep coming back for the high quality delicious food, notably at the food court. I've had my love at first bite moments with the Mac and cheese, sushi, ramen, pizza (recently found out about the Friday 2 slices for $5 so definitely going to take advantage), and want to try the sandwiches next. I've gotten so many desserts for so many occasions- strawberry shortcake, chantilly cake (highly recommend), cookies, cupcakes, pies, and other random groceries. Holidays are particularly busy because they also offer delicious readymade meals. At the end of the day, I just feel better eating food where the ingredients are legible, high quality, and tasty (while blissfully and ignoring my bank account of course.)

Whole Foods is using COVID as excuse to profit and not to take back spoiled products while Trader Joes in same county will take returns. Be careful when buying products here. Update: regarding Whole Foods response, had a couple calls previously with Whole Foods and they refused to refund products. I disputed the charge and and am not interested in spending more time with the help link provided. Whole Foods needs to do the work and allow refunds, not put the responsibility on the customer.

It's 3 AM, and tonight I am writing as a neighbor. And this post is for neighbors; those of us who live along Vernon Terrace and Vernon Street; who have had to live with fairly constant noise violations. Some of us have been here for a long time. And for most of this time, Whole Foods has been good neighbors. Sure, often at 10PM a delivery truck will hang on it's horn, or the street was busy. But....for living next to a large grocery store it was OK. But now, we live with a HVAC system that runs 4x louder than the law provides. And management that ignores complaints. They give lip service, but ignore us. It's like living next to a fog horn, that runs all night long. Every once in a while it turns off. Tonight it did at 11:00 PM for a few minutes. I was so excited! But like most nights lately it's been running all night. And for the last few nights I haven't slept. It's a pandemic. And now we have to work from home, with this constant noise in the background. And no one cares. For some reason, this store thinks it's important to run their noisy system all night. They don't fix it. They don't revert to however they ran it for 10 years before this started to happen. They frankly don't care. For years, we never had this problem. We could even sleep with the windows open. Now, I'm wondering if I have to move. I question what my legal rights are. Tonight I just tried to sleep on my couch for a while, on the other side of my house away from the noise. For years, I don't remember their HVAC system to be a problem. Period. But for the last 6 months it's been horrible. We can't really enjoy outside anymore either. It's like sitting across the road from a jet engine that never turns off. During a pandemic where outside is the one thing we really need. So neighbors. All I can think is that maybe we need to band together and spend our dollars elsewhere. At companies that do care about their neighbors. That might all help us sleep a little better at night.

This Whole Foods was well managed due to the fact it was Christmas Eve and With COVID 19 in the air, at this time and it was not a complete s*** show. Bravo. My sister and I we're able to get in and out and had to wait in a line to get in and to pay. The cashier and bagger were very nice and personable to all customers coming through. You should try these: The Whole Foods egg rolls, reheated in the air fryer which I highly recommend. This egg roll was worth every penny. Very tasty tender chicken, cabbage and other veggies. I wish there was a little more cabbage but no biggie. The Whole Foods fresh squeezed organic orange, beet and carrot juice. Life changing and cleans your gut all in one absolutely delicious. It was sweet FYI. Don't try; Genji pre made sushi - salmon and avocado. I couldn't taste the salmon or the avocado and the pieces were scant. It said it was made the same day but it didn't taste fresh. The rice was tough and the ratio of rice to fish was off meaning that there was too much rice. It tasted like amateur sushi because the rice tasted like sour vinegar and sweet. Farmers Joe Markets makes way better sushi. Don't do it!
