This Smart & Final has recently been renovated. They have expanded several of their dept such as produce, meat and frozen food section. Its nice to see the improvement. Parking available.

My go-to grocery store! Items are fairly priced and were of good quality. They usually have most of the items were looking for, and the best thing about this place is their multiple rows and aisles at the checkout.

Everything you could ever do want from a Smart & Final can be found here. They are big on bulk, and big on savings. I was surprised at how large of a store this was. Not much produce selection, most of the fruit was old or sold. But they have anything you need to host a bbq or set up a taco stall.The aisles were clean and organized. Lots of selection of different types of dog food. Tons of to-go containers and cleaning supplies. Frozen food isle was probably the biggest section of the store.They have a full liquor corner, with top shelf selections. But you need assistance to access the area. Huge amounts of ready-to-drink beverages like monster energy, la croix and Starbucks Frappuccino’s.Friendly store members. Free parking in the lot out front. Hard to notice this store from normal traffic, it’s a little tucked.

Our shopping experience was good. Glad to say we found everything we needed. Thanks to restrictions its not like we need to hoard stuff. We just need one of that item. Thank YOU for those restrictions. As we seen already, we do need them in place.

This store has it all, from fruits and vegetables to products and drinks for family care. Being a client, it will be a simple job to fill the position with so many items for your order placement. Services such as a discount and prompt customer service are also offered by the store.

Its a really good store has everything I need. The only problem I have is with the youngest cashiers. Im a really friendly person and the couple of time that I went the young cashier give out attitudes. The customer service is not at its 100.

This store is constantly missing inventory. It makes it hard to buy stock because its like playing roullette on maybe you will hit it or miss what you need. Poorly run store which represents the corporation that I have money invested in. Pulling my money out immediately.

Review №17

Straightforward and lots of parking, a good place to get large quantity without breaking the bank. Very easy to find what youre looking for but selection is more limited than a more upscale supermarket. Look for their weekly sales!

This place is tucked in some out of the way streets in the produce district of downtown Los Angeles. This Smart & Final store is efficient and hardly any waiting in line. I highly recommend it when you are in this side of town.

Review №28

This location provides by far the worst costumer service. There was young cashier 18-mid 20s. She was complaining about everything and did not seem like she wanted to be at work. I kept my cool until she literally shoved my receipt in my hand. When I called her out by saying she needed to work on her CS skills, she began ranting and using profanity towards me. I had my 3 year old with me and this is not okay. I requested to speak with the manager but that did not help. The manager brushed it off and this is not okay. My daughter realized my frustration and said she said “ohh words”. My family and I have been shopping at this location since I was a child myself. I will definitely not be coming back. I highly recommend people to go to 3111 E Florence AveHuntington Park, CA 90255 location. Lots of parking, clean and great people.

One of my favorite chains. Only other place I go to for groceries. I get in and out with what I need.Staff is always friendly and helpful here.They also have Good deals and some stuff is cheaper here than other bulk buy places.Only thing is that they need to make more parking.

My poor daughter has been vomiting everywhere tonight. I know its from eating the prepared food I bought her from here. She had chicken drumsticks and Mac and cheese. Scrolling through the reviews, there have been quite a few mentions of food poisoning. Also, my SOUP had something CRUNCHY in it. Do not eat here!!!

Review №37

Decent store, not much different from other S&F. The service shifts depending on the day. Sometimes they are very helpful, and sometimes they are not so much. The neighborhood would likely make many who arent used to it uncomfortable. They dont have the biggest inventory or selection, so keep that in mind since they are a smaller location.

Review №38

Most of the time pleasant cashiers, though it seems that always they are organizing produce etc, they should do that after hours, also parking is a headache when the 2nd gate is locked because geez, try getting in and out with one gate on that literally 3 4 or 5 way intersection with no stops!!!! The owner should try it when its busy AND rush hour! Crazy, otherwise ok.. looks like prices hiked up too, one bag of groceries no less than $50!

Customer service is horrible cashier had a bad day and had an attitude with customers i mean lady you are getting paid to work there.. ppl just need to be blessed for having a job.. my daughter had a little bag of tissue she took in the store and this lady was accusing her of stealing! Really i think my kids know better than her! Unfortunately I didn’t take her accusations and flipped on her ass!!! First and last time i will go to there!!! A smile makes your day even better when you’re standing there for hours!

Could not find what I was looking for so I asked an employee and she was so rude and not at all helpful. There was only two cash registers open with huge line. And they were so rude when charging, seemed like they just wanted to get you out of their way as soon as possible. Horrible experience. Never coming back
