First time visiting. Everything was clean and orderly. Line was a bit long for a Wednesday afternoon at 3pm. Will definitely return.

Great fruits and service. I only wished they carried more Gluten Free items such as Canyon breads and Pumpkin Waffles by Nature Path.

This Vons is conveniently located by the freeway and has always had a large selection of items. I am satisfied with the produce here although their fruit is not always perfect. The amount of Asian foods they have available is perfect and if I’m missing some relatively exotic ingredient, the chances are high that this Vons will have it. Friendly enough staff with access to self checkout makes this my go-to store.

Pretty decent store. Had some interesting conversations with the courtesy clerk who dies her hair a lot Sasha havent seen her recently though and another notable employee is the tall guy who is in the meat department. Wide selection of items and easy to navigate.

The most painful vons on the planet.. no one ever working, forget about buying alcohol because the line will be enormous

It can be a challenge to shop at a store when youre not familiar with it, so my inability to locate everything on my shopping list is understandable. The market shelves were full; the lighting seemed somewhat dim. Of the two employees i asked to direct me to items i couldnt find, one directed me straight to the correct aisle, the other said in front and seemed reluctant to be more specific. I never did find that last item. The cashier at the self-checkout machines was kind, patient, and helpful.

Love the Solana Beach store. Well stocked and friendly staff. Can always find what in looking for. Their Just 4 You program gives you additional discounts and rewards. The gas rewards are a really good deal especially if you tank up at a Vons gas station. There is one in Pacific beach. Thats my hot tip of the day!

The store has ample organic produce which is fresh and a deli department where you can pick up freshly prepared meals also. The bakery prepares their goods daily including donuts and various breads which are delectable however they are a bit below gourmet even though they try really hard here.

Decent prices, but the layout of the store is pretty ridiculous in some ways. Cheeses are spread out across like 3 different sections with no apparent rhyme or reason... Theyre not even near the dairy products. It makes no sense.

In this grocery store, there was an incredible selection of items at the lowest prices. With no intention of buying anything, we came here, but with three bags left. The market is well organized, and everything realistic is well equipped for it! They also have a small eatery in a supermarket that has delicious food ready to eat there or to take out. Visiting Worth!

Fairly typical Vons. Very busy, with lots of registers open. Staff seemed very nice. Produce section was smaller than usual. On the other hand, their floral offerings were impressive for a grocery store. Bathroom was very clean.

I love the Lomas Santa Fe location best. The wine guys are amazing and happy to share their knowledge and make suggestions. A few of their picks have been spot on.

The Solana Beach location is a VERY nice store. BIG, too. Neat, well organized and very clean. Some of the prettiest produce -- I dont think I saw any greens that looked even slightly wilted. Oh, and their watering system for the veggies even simulates thunder and lightning! I guess to make them feel at home 😄 This was also the most fully stocked store of any kind Ive ever been in -- no gaping holes in the inventory or cleaned out shelves like you find EVERYWHERE in east county.

I went in after a late meeting to make sure I would have breakfast when I woke up. Only one door was open and I had to walk around to get inside. But once inside I found a great selectionton of cheeses a nice half carton of organic eggs and a nice cashier. Some of the prices are higher here than elsewhere, but I like their clean well lit aisles.

Review №33

If I could leave a zero star rating I would. There is no excuses for lines going halfway to the back of the store and empty registers. But you have personal shoppers running people over while your shopping every which way you turn. BAD MANAGEMENT! Ill spend my money elsewhere.

I can always count on Vons to have whatever I need. They have a wide assortment of items for any occasion. The employees are always willing to help me find my items. I also like having the option of self-checkout, which really helps the lines move quicker when its busy. Their Deli is also very helpful (aka: samples). The pharmacy here is very pleasant and the people behind the counter are very helpful. Overall, very clean and welcoming location. Would definitely recommend!

Great Grocery! Plenty of Organic without high prices. I take advantage of the Digital Coupons - its so worth a few minutes to get the Just for U Specials. I usually save 20% or more on my final tab. The store was bright & clean.

Always love to have an opportunity to work with the best people in the world. The fact that the company is without a doubt the best of all grocery stores has always had an excellent quality of merchandise and the quality of their team! It truly is a great Family, Tribe,and is the perfect gift of all that I have learned to have the most of respect for. I dont hesitate to say that there are no negatives to the fact that this is an extremely important part of the community and the people who are just so intuitive and have a keen love of their customers to make sure they know that they will not have a problem letting the truth be known and that is when you shop and frequent the store for whatever reason is on that day. You come to know that you are treated like and you are part of the family that is VONS SOLANA BEACH

The bakery here is amazing.there are so many staff at the checkout and so many lines to choose from, I have never had to wait more than 5 minutes to complete my purchase! The Redbox is always well stocked! If you need a florist no matter the occasion, they have bouquets, arrangements and customizable gifts the staff can put together nicely for you!

Vons is always clean and well stocked. The quality of produce and meats is always good. I can nearly always find what I am looking for since they have a large variety of foods in all departments. The wine and beer selection is also great. We always have an amazing experience with the pharmacy staff here! Parking is never an issue in front of on back. There are many other stores and restaurants of quality also in the plaza. I did not rate it 10 because I feel the prices are higher than a couple other markets that I regularly visit.

You should make Stan Rogers the permanent Manager. Hes great with the customers, even the difficult ones. No one leaves the store without knowing that Stan at least cares, Even during the wine sale rush, he was calm and helpful. Why wait. Stan should be the manager now.Bill C.

Understaffed meat dept at time I was there, employee couldnt find fish item that was featured on front page of ad. Item he guessed, at checkout it was priced way off obviously wrong item and had to be voided.

Review №58

I wanted to buy the tofu that was on sale, but there wasnt one container of it on the shelves. An employee said to come back another day. I wanted the deal on ice cream that I would have received for purchasing four of them, but there were only three sugar-free ice creams on the shelf. An employee who helped me look for a fourth said that Id still get the lower price, but the cashier gave me a hard time until I said that Id put them back. THEN she gave me the lower price. Vons is convenient when I need a few things, but I drive out to Ralphs for my big shopping trips; its so much better.

Review №61

Im having a hard time figuring out why they have 3s a crowd posters posted everywhere, hanging from the ceiling, posted on storefront windows, etc., but never do they actually adhere to their self-imposed rule of opening up a new check stand when there are more than 3 people waiting in line. Ive been 6 customers deep in line with maybe 3 checkers checking and I think all of my line-mates are thinking the same thing, which is, why have the posters up if there is no intention of opening additional check stands? Produce is fresh, shelves are usually fully stocked, place is clean, but the customer service (mainly checkers) could use some refresher courses in providing good service. Im not even asking for excellent service, just good, downhome, courteous service.

Tony in the deli is the best, we tasted the chicken and coleslaw and laughed with him. What a great guy and makes a chain grocery store into a neighborhood market.PS, the Mango Habanero Chicken is fantastic!

This is the Hilton of VONS supermarkets! Every department is well staffed & well stocked. The store is massive - clean & well ventilated (some stores are claustrophobic & stuffy). The staff is always pleasant & helpful. The floral department & assistant are outstanding - a $10 bouquet of fresh flowers or roses lasts a week! and they make up fabulous designer bouquets. I feel so fortunate to make this my local.

Worst place to shop ever!! Their security guard only follows brown people around because he assumes were stealing. He claims its a high theft area which I completely understand except its racial profiling if you only find one race suspicious. Especially since we all know thieves come in every race. Its outrageous to assume I steal because Im black. Smh

I have been going to vons for the last 8 years. The customer service has always been so helpful and understanding. And they helped me through when my late husband developed alzheimers. Now during this pandemic most of the people are rude, never ask you how you are, and worse, are messing up at check out.I am sorry to say over the last month I have found many mistakes. Not getting the sale items, discounts ect. The way I have been getting treated is not worth the money. If you are an elderly person please watch out. This store has changed. And its so sad. My late husband and I have spent so much money there, because of the wonderful customer service. And great deals.I am going to try another store. This store does not care about elderly people anymore.

This is the worst Vons I have ever been too. Martha is RUDE all the time, likes to chat with other employees rather than actually help customers. I have had many issues buying expired items that were for some reason still on the shelf, along with items that have been opened already.GO TO ANOTHER STORE!!
