I always shop Grocery Outlet first for the best deals. The cheese section always has a great selection for a charcuterie board. The prices cant be beat for some of my favorite items like no sugar added bacon or non dairy coffee creamers. The loyalty card is perfect if you shop at the el cajon location a lot.

They have the health and beauty aidle blocked off. When I asked why the clerk said if I wanted something from the aisle I could ask the staff.... Um the etore never has the same stuff so how would I know what to ask for and i would like to see the price of on item while I am browsing. They never told me WHY it was blocked off. Also prices were significantly higher than other grocery outlets I purchase from. Will never darken this ones doorway again

Love this restaurant. I took with my Dad to dinner at the casa de Pico Mexican restaurant in la Mesa California located at grossmont center for his 90th birthday. It was outdoor dining only due to the covid-19 restrictions. Theres plenty of space with the outside dining and it is very comfortable. The food is fabulous Ive been here many times and Ill continue to go back. I recommend custody Pico to anyone and everyone looking to enjoy an authentic Mexican meal.

They Close At 10:00PM-(unfortunately)Sometimes there should be a 4.25 out four and a half point score. I went here for the first time a few weeks ago and I wanted to cry with joy. Had all kinds of really cheap good organic nutritious food and like the rejects of the food because of certain flavors. I like the rejects.. Even pretty supplies and the hairbody care products are the same. The rejected products, maybe because theyre gonna expire soon and others, well who knows. But I feel in love with a grocery store and I am not a huge fan of grocery shopping. Its like the grocery store for unique rejects. Kinda like the customers. The cashier was a bit of a snot and this says they close at 11 but I asked a couple clerks the other night when I was there and they said that they close at 10:00 every night. This was my second visit, 4 days ago.

A good source for all kinds of organic and healthy grocery items. The store looked clean and organized, i found most of what i was looking for. Although, as i went by the meat department, i noticed it was a little understocked, and due for more display items. I have been to this store one other time as i go to another one of their locations closer to my residence. In the last visit, it was not well stocked either, however, i did find some of what i needed. Just an observation and hopefully it helps improve their operations.

I really like this store. But, if you are looking for name brands, this is not the place to shop. BUT if you are looking for a great deal on off brands, this store rocks. Great deals in new York strips and filets.

The cashier made sure to tell me a contest theyre currently running -- that no one told me about before, despite numerous shopping trips -- and she explained the rules before she gave me the card detailing this visit. She went above and beyond.

I love this store more than I claim to have before. Inexpensive name brands at a fraction of original pricing. I loved the unique items & found the same items at Walmart for at least 1/3 less.

At grocery outlets the produce is always fresh, their meats section is very well stocked with a variety of cuts and some hard to find items. On my last visit I scored a beautiful yoga Matt for $9.99.Store is clean and customer service is great.

Review №31

This GO location is smaller than the one in Santee so the selection is not as good. Each store seems to have different products, but I noticed that this store carried a specific brand/product that was $2 more than at the Santee location. Make sure to check expiration dates at ALL locations. Some items expire within days to only a few weeks and might not be suitable for long time storage.

Always a good selection of random foods along with some consistent items. As I enjoy trying new things this place suits me perfectly, only downside is when I find something I really like and have no idea where to acquire it anymore.

This store is great! Dont expect to find brand names of everything on your list, but if your flexible you will most likely find everything you need. Prices are fantastic and staff ready to help and show you to items of extra special savings. Hint: Check the expiration date on all fresh food items. I saved $66.00 and i only bought 2 bags worth. P.S They pack bags very efficiently also saving you money.

I enjoy going shopping where the staff are friendly, a bit personable, not standoffish and cranky attitudes. If I need something there is always someone willing to stop what they are doing to assist me. I shop here nearly every week. My favorite product is the Coconut Beach coconut water. :) I hope they always have it.

Using my husbands account but first of allI got to say I love this store now went there for the first time a few days ago and I can’t stop going, yea they don’t have everything but the prices and the staff make up for it. The employees are so nice and helpful and have no attitude and I also met the owner on the floor working and he is also very nice and helped us out too. Love this store

Review №72

Most of the prices are very reasonableSome are higher than other stores but their meats, compared to other stores are well priced and very tasty. Their other items are good too but their peanut butter is too high priced. Quality of items I have bought is very good. Picked up some items today that I am trying for the first time. So far things have been great and great for my budget

Ja
Review №73

If they ever go out of business, they would be sorely missed. There are items they normally stock that are half the price elsewhere. They are the only store where you can buy breaded shrimp if you have a fryer. It is preformed elsewhere. I bought a package of Kobe burgers. Theyre small (quarter pounders) but pack a lot of flavor. My son said best burgers he has ever had. Its like going to a garage sale, take your time to find the hidden gems.

Love the stores. Each has different items and you may find Puma shoes to good brand dog food and big selection beer&wines. BUT the one thing Ive learned is buy it when you see it because if you return theres a good chance the items are sold out.

Review №83

Its a pretty good place to shop, and I have gotten some stellar deals there, but their stock isnt consistent. However, I do try to buy my cheeses there, along with some meats. Its a great place to shop at, as long as you dont expect most things you found one time to be there the next.

This is a great Grocery Outlet. Clean, well stocked with lots of great buy varieties. The owner/team are hands on and I have had the pleasure of talking with him on the floor and found him to be very dedicated to the sucess of his business and not afraid to get his hands dirty. The staff are helpful, knowlegeable and just plain pleasant. This is a must stop if you are looking to save $$$, find new items and enjoy a pleasant experience. Same GO warning: if you see it and you want, buy it now as it may be gone (for good) your next visit!
