Albertsons

I had an incredible experience at Albertsons, there was a mix up with my deli order and the store manager Joe Clarkson, quickly and efficiently solved my issue. He showed excellent customer service and did it in such a way that was kind and genuine. My deli order turned out delicious and was enjoyed by all of the faculty at Audubon MS. Way to go Joe! Thank you for running Albertson’s the community grocery store, in such a humane manner.

I want to compliment the Store Manager Joe, for his excellent customer service! He helped our school out in a very big way for our Holiday Party. Thank you Joe for your kindness! Audubon!

An enjoyable neighborhood market, involved in the community. Slightly higher prices than the competition, but not unreasonably so, and the customer service tends to be excellent. The workers are friendly, the management is attentive to your needs, and shopping here is an overall pleasant experience. I’m not giving a final star due to the odd smell coming from their deli section, and the fact that I’ve seen flies in the display cases more than once, meaning that I’ll only buy the prepackaged meat. However, the rest of the Albertson’s is so well-​run and well-​managed that I have to give four stars. A truly warm and friendly place for a grocery chain.

Okay shopping for food otherwise it’s never nice to get the N treatment from your own people for alternate seevices!

Wanted to compliment a lady who works in the deli section at the Crenshaw Albertson’s near the Baldwin Hills Mall. I believe her name is Geraldine. Geraldine was very pleasant when she serviced. I need several orders of the fried chicken which wasn’t ready. I left the deli counter to shop until the chicken was ready. Shortly after I returned, she handed me my order with a smile on her face. I just think that type of service is so important when you deal with the public. Thank you for hiring Geraldine.

Definitely gets crowded on the weekends, but the grilled chicken is so good here that it’s worth it. I drive all the way out just to get the chicken and I think a lot of other people do too. Best in the city if you ask me. Also have had a great experience with every employee at this store. Always so polite and helpful.

Overall I’d give this place a great review. The people here are very nice and, although I’ve found that some of the people on the floor are not knowledgeable regarding certain gourmet items. I placed a large order for grilled and fried chicken for my daughter’s birthday party. Albertson’s has an online order capability, but I didn’t feel very confident about using it, so I decided to call instead.
When I called I spoke to someone who couldn’t speak much English and she took my order via phone. I figured she’d gotten it, but just to be sure I called back a few days later to confirm the amount and the price. When I spoke to the guy on the phone, he couldn’t find a record of my order and he quoted me a different price. On the day I went to go pick up the order, it wasn’t ready at the time it was supposed to be, but one of the men in the deli got the crew together and immediately assembled the order. So props for that.
We got the chicken and it was delicious. Now I remember the fried chicken from Albertson’s being out of this world, but this time it was «good». The grilled chicken is absolutely amazing. All went well.
Now that that’s out of the way, a solid 5 – 6 months later I look down at my phone because someone is calling me from Albertson’s. I was extremely confused as to why someone was calling from there, so I answered it. It’s the same woman who messed up the order when I placed it back in October. The woman sounded rather surprised that I personally answered the phone; it’s almost like she was expecting someone in particular who wasn’t me, like she’d gotten the wrong number. Over the next month, she proceeded to call me 2 – 3 more times, each time with me telling her she had the wrong number.
Weird…

I frequent this Albertson’s often, they have fresh products & staff are friendly. Cashiers are always pleasant. I don’t shop here as my main grocery store simply because Alberston’s is expensive. I love their 4 pack tomatoes, perfect quantity. But the downside is there is always a long checkout line & they have the nerve to have a sign that says if there are 3 customers in one line another checkout line will open up, I have yet to see the store honor that sign.

This used to be the main store that I shopped just prior to 2010. I stopped shopping here because I moved. Recently I visited because I was in the area, and noticed that it has changed drastically.
The prices are unbelievably HIGH, even when compared to Pavillions in Culver City… WOW!
Produce Selection is small.
Purchased a baked good, which was STALE!
The Fried Chicken in the deli department used to be so GOOD back in the days, that there was always a long line. Now they’ve even changed the chicken recipe. It’s now not too tasty.
Even the smiling faces of the checkers that used to be there are gone. New faces with no smiles.
I guess with the community transformation, Albertson’s is even trying to run their customers off.
I will never shop at this Albertson’s location again.

If you’ve been reading my post you know I have been on the search for French Toast Crunch Cereal. Well if your a feen like me look no more… it’s at this location.
The guy in customer service was so very helpful. He said they have it all Cinnamon Toast Crunch, Chocolate Toast Crunch & my beloved French Toast Crunch! !! I can’t remember if he said it was on aisle 1 or 7 (because he said one before the other at first) but he said its on the bottom shelf and I am on my way right now.
FIVE STARS FOR CUSTOMER SERVICE!
I LOVE people who like to do their job :-)
(So I just got back from this store and uhhhh… they had it wrong. Got there all excited and they still did NOT have it. Some how he mixed up my word French with Frosted) :-(
(I have to remove two stars for that. 1 for my gas and 1 for my time)

Terrible. I only shop here when I’m pressed for time & can’t drive to another grocery store. I’ve never, EVER walked in & not seen long lines with only 2 or 3 check stands open. I walked the entire store shopping today & not a single employee greeted me or offered assistance. The cashier never said hello nor thanked me for my business. That’s bad. Worse is that he was the manager/​supervisor. I can’t even refer to him by name because he had his id tag turned around. Wait, It’s on the receipt. Terrible job Juan G.

Good store! Service can be a bit slow but they have decent products! They have really good deli products! But, I am not sure if it’s me but they have gotten really expensive here. I came in here and spent about 35 percent more than I would have at Ralphs and I got a few less products!!!

I’m going to go ahead and give a shout out to the neighborhood Albertson’s, holding it down as the only grocery store near King and Crenshaw with a decent little selection of organic produce and other organic «select» items from their store brand. As a vegetarian who buys organic when possible, the options here for kids lunches as well as dinners from scratch are plentiful & comparable for the most part to Ralph’s on Rodeo. People tend to be friendly. The staff has always been helpful. The store is orderly and clean. If there was expansion of the organic produce selection and enlargement of the organic area I would give this location 5 stars. The Ralph’s on Rodeo does have a larger organic produce section, but also has a lot more traffic.

This location never has enough cashiers and there is always a long line. How bad? I can’t tell you how many times I have walked out and gone to another market rather than wait.
The worst is the prices. Albertson’s is by far the highest priced market in the area. If you can drive go to Ralphs or Superior for better prices.

I have mixed feelings about this Albertsons.
On one hand, the fried chicken is good! My favorite items from the deli happen to be the fried honey wings and the rotisserie chicken salad.
The bakery rocks! They bake awesome Victorian Lace cakes. I order my daughter’s birthday cakes from here every year. They offer those cutesy cartoon character cakes that kids adore.
The downside to this place are the long lines, lack of employees, and hood patrons who shop here. And that’s hood with a capital HOOD.

Good chicken even though they are high as hell for a pound

If you carry Arnold Palmer flavored lemonade ice teas I am most definitely a fan. Ralph’s quit carrying every flavor except the original a few years back. I never shop at Albertson’s but I happened to wander into this one and voila! I even saw raspberry flavor which I had never seen before. Although not a huge fan of raspberry, Simply Raspberry Lemonade doesn’t last 2 days in my fridge so I will try olé A.P.‘s. When I couldn’t find Ben N Jerry’s Jimmy Fallon Late Night Snack ice cream this same Albertson’s had it on deck also. I may have to stop shopping at Ralph’s ALL of the time. Hopefully this particular Albertson’s doesn’t close down like so many of them will be soon. I wonder if they have Haagen Dazs blueberry crumble… it’s delicious.

I have one word for this place: HOOD!

Ghetto ass Albertson’s. I swear. Besides the crazy black dude that talks to himself, the fresh sea food is pretty much the only reason to go in here.

Prices are cheaper in this area of the county than at Albertson’s in places like Palos Verdes, Santa Monica, even Covina!!! What’s the deal??? This is ridiculous! The ad for the crenshaw store this week says Boneless cross rib roast 2.28 lb good until the 7^th of March but the ad in these other stores does not have any beef roast or steak cheaper than 3.99 and the Covina store won’t honor the price stated at the crenshaw store. Why do the people in the crenshaw area get better deals? Is it because they are a poorer demographic than those in Redondo Beach where a house costs more. This is so unfair and I for one refuse to shop at Albertson’s any longer.
