Not sure if this is a national brand or just in the Fort Lauderdale area but it's the best Supermarket I've ever visited. There is absolutely everything you could want, good quality and price. We visited for snacks not really knowing what we wanted, a busy day, and came out with fresh cooked curry complete with sides. Cakes, beers etc are all available too... I intend to visit again before I leave on Thu

Great cause it’s in Whole Foods. Tasty coffee. Rude service though. Might have been the person we got though.

When too tired to cook, stop in here for a quick and easy (and tasty) selection from the hot table. It's priced by weight, and in my opinion, good value for decent quality. There are things I've learned to avoid here (rice dries, as do some of the stews) but all in all, its good food and served at a good temperature. The white fish in a light citrusy brine is delicious.

I am a 3x a week shopper at Whole Foods Fort Lauderdale...My first encounter with Alfredo was when I was searching the aisles for a long list from my husbands daughters family visit, Alfredo asked if he could help. I told him my situation and he stayed with me until I found EVERTHING and it was a very long list !!! He made shopping so fast and so easy !!! I have seen him several times since then and he is always so kind, so happy and so ready to help. Please do something for Alfredo, I am sure you are well aware of the GEM you have hired. He truly is one of the best, I only shop at this store...they are all wonderful and so happy ! I love Fort Lauderdale Whole Foods !!!

Salad bar and hot food bar have a variety of different options for different tastes. They have different sections with Latin cuisine, Asian cuisine, Indian cuisine, etc. They also have ~14 different soup options at any given time and they are all delicious. I was sad to see the juice bar close down. Hopefully they replace with another company soon!

I really like this Whole Foods. Though, living in downtown Ft. Lauderdale, it's really my only option for Whole Foods, I've lived or at least shopped all up and down the south east coast and from South Carolina to South Florida, I've shopped countless While Foods. This isn't the biggest, and I've been in some with a larger selection, but it's a solid store, well stocked, even through the COVID19 pandemic, and the staff are lovely. The store is clean and welcoming. I wish they had a bit more selection in the health and beauty section, but they only have so much space. Parking can sometimes be a challenge during busy times, but then again, that's everywhere in the city.

I cannot imagine a more despicable human being than Jeff Bezos, who singlehandedly destroyed one of the greatest upcoming corporations of our country. Whole Foods was once magnificent and thought of opening small stores in underserved areas to promote healthy eating, large scale eco/conscious public projects, and more... Now Whole Foods is a wasteland of green washing and eco profiteering. Shopping at Whole Foods is miserable. The music is loud and irritating, there are TONS of Amazon Prime delivery shoppers who could care less about the store or shopping experience of other customers. Not to mention, during the time of a pandemic where Jeff Bezos has made 24billion, the neglect and ineptitude of leadership for Whole Foods and it's workers' is horrendous. Jeff Bezos and the executive leadership should be ashamed of themselves. Truly.

Plain and simple, while the Corona Pandemic is at its worst, this whole Foods Market wont allow or demand its workers to wear any sort of protective gear, exposing their patrons to the virus while risking their work force. Unforgivable and hypocritical specially when they are trying to self you an organic life style. I give them a minus 5 stars.

Let's be honest, Allegro Coffee Company is simply fine contemporary Barista artistry. A palatable coffee bean to brew experience of sorts that sure to not only please, it's worth returning to enjoy sips of excellent frothy milk foam gorgeousness.People, listen, when considering modern Baristaism, think of coffee shops/bars that express the art of esquite coffee presentation and execution with true authenticity without fail. I'm talking about a guaranteed satisfaction awakening of tastebuds via carefully cupped caffeinated euphoria.Allegro Coffee Co., it's more than just a caffine-high, arguably, it's a way of tasting geographical life, the whole bean way located inside Whole Foods Market. Cups up everyone! Keep those coffee beans grinding baby, hell yeah!
This wholefoods is like paradise compared to the one on sobe. It's clean, the cooked food actually looks like food and not dried "yesterdays food". The workers are pleasant and the parking is great! I like how its centrally located so I can jump over to wilton to get some vegan food, but I also can shoot over to Michaels!

By far my favorite Whole Foods! I come here for lunch way more than I should (haha) and I LOVE the free samples! They always have some sort of cheese or sandwich to give out. If you're lucky, you can even catch a vendor heating up some samples! Another reason why this is my FAV Whole Foods would be the fresh hot bar that keeps refilling! You can find literally any meal in the hot bar - and if it's not there, the employees are always trying to restock it for you! The employees are also BEYOND nice. They always want to make sure you're being taken care of and find anything you may need!

I'm really thankful to have this store so close by. It does get crowded so try I try to skip the weekend and after work crowd. The parking lot is at least not as crazy as Trader Joe's, so that is a plus! It's really easy to find lovely organic Vegan food here. I opt for the Baby Bok Choy available on the wall of greens right when you walk into the store. You can find a nice variety of quality organic kale here too as well as many of your favorite Organic leafy greens sans glyphosate and atrazine. I love flash woking up that Baby Bok Choy with a little organic ginger and garlic for breakfast! To the left of the green wall I get my organic avocados and bananas. To the left of that is the wall of bulk mostly organic grains nuts and seeds. Love the red and French lentils! Organic Wild rice organic raw almonds ... bag up the cruelty free love in bulk! Walnuts and pumpkin seeds can be found here too. And don't forget the organic Steel Cut Oats! Be sure to park your cart a little further away and watch your feet and surroundings when filling up your bags though since this is a major artery and can have some major traffic. From here I run past the meat and fish counters to avoid the smell and bad feng shui and hit the plant based meat and milk area and load up on 365 organic almond coconut and soy milk. I love the vegan breakfast sausage here too in the case across from the milks. From here I usually buy some local Florida made Healthy Gourmet hummus in the freezer refrigerator section. (I recommend the spinach artichoke and the dill)! I also usually grab some cranberry and raspberry GTS kombucha. Around the corner is the Lindemans Lambic Framboise and Pêche. Then it's a quick dash to check out! Remember to bring your phone so if you are an Amazon prime customer you can scan it at checkout! Love this store but avoid peak times if you can.

WEEVLE INFESTATION & $25 gift card I decided to treat myself to a big shopping trip at whole food stocking up on staples, loads of stuff. One of the things I bought was "good citizens shells and white cheddar" most regrettable. When I got home to unpack the stuff I noticed hundreds of small bugs literally everywhere. I mean everywhere in every bag and on my floor crawling around. I've seen a few of these strange bugs in a box of pasta once. I googled it and discovered that these are "weevles" a small beetle that likes grains, pasta etc. I had already put some stuff on shelves immediately I began to bag everything to try and stop the infestation, and found the bugs everywhere even in my car and as I am writing this review 4 hours later at 11pm. I go to work at 6am tomorrow. - so I looked at one suspect package "good citizens shells and white cheddar" it had a few more on it then the others and checked the expiration , November 21, 2019. It's now January 5th, probably the one but the BUGS WHERE EVERYWHERE. I spent $240 and I'm grossed out and don't even wanna eat. I call Whole Foods and she asked my total and said to come in and speak with manager. I said ok I live 25 minutes away that's a whole hour of driving. She said they will compensate you. I wanted these bugs out of my house!! Grossed out I drove fast to get to Whole Foods and spoke to a manager while apologized but only offered me $25. I said that's not good enough this is awful. While they werE polite I'm really put off to shop there again. As we were talking the bugs were crawling in my insulated bag!! The manager offered me a bag but really for this I definitely should have gotten at the least a $100 gift card. I took the $25 and came home, found several in other items and in the fridge as well, they got everywhere. What an ordeal!! Firstly they shouldn't be selling such an expired product I always look at dates but sometimes you don't. Mainly I thought their offer was weak and I'm STILL cleaning up. Hours of cleaning and driving and my night was ruined. Careful here, you may bring home HUNDREDS OF CRAWLING BUGS. Great now I can buy a smoothie with my $25 gift card

I love this place. I love to come here for lunch and have a healthy lunch. Food is always fresh. I love the staff they are amazing. There is always plenty of parking here. This is one of the best lunch spots in town.
