Girl, let me spill the tea on Trader Joe's! Honey, this location is a treasure trove of delights! I've been on the hunt for frozen kimbap high and low, and lo and behold, they had it! Now, there's a catch, limit two per customer, but hey, I'll take what I can get! Now, about that parking lot, it's busier than the set of a blockbuster movie, but trust me, the hustle and bustle is all worth it for the goodies inside! Five stars? Absolutely, Trader Joe's has me feeling like a winner every time!

Ah, Trader Joe's in Palo Alto—the kaleidoscopic bazaar where Silicon Valley's brainteasers and code wizards break bread—or rather, snap up gluten-free, organic sourdough! It's the Oracle of Delphi for your dietary needs; a place so charmingly quirky, it makes even the eccentricities of Leiland Stanford seem tame. Ah yes, the founding father of Stanford, the man whose legacy is as mixed as the store's trail mix—innovative yet fraught with murky ethics.Let us also pay homage to that resilient old Asian fellow who briefly exited stage left atop Coit Tower. In him, we see the audacity of Palo Alto—ever striving, even when the universe demands a timeout.Five dazzling stars! For where else but this Trader Joe's can one contemplate the enigmas of Bay Area history while filling one's basket with 'Everything But The Bagel' seasoning? A grocery shopping experience as multi-layered as the city it serves!

This is a nice TJs. I used to shop here all the time. Now they open at 9a and I can rarely go anymore. Sucks.

Love this place. Small store with lostsa merchandise. Super fresh produce. the Home brand has lotsa amazing stuff from cookies, ice creams, frozen stuff and meat. Great Prices at Great quality. Highly recommend this place for everyone. Staffs are friendly and nice. Fully stocked but items sell out very soon during the weekend. Must try is their home brand frozen stuff.

Used to be good - noticed a steep decline in quality over the past few months. I have purchased different items and found them to be stale/moldy. Got a package of their burrito wraps, purchased on Friday and already moldy (sealed package)Good luck w their produce, even worse.Contacted tjs, never heard back.

LOVE this place, the cheese is fantastic. The dry fruits are fresh. I love the frozen food and the fresh food they have. The lemon chicken and arugula salad is my ALL TIME FAVORITE. PLEASE TRY IT! The frozen pizza is great too.

My suggestion: Dive in and "explore the store!" Wonderful and surprising items are in every department, and the selections of cheeses and wines are there at a great price point for your family and guest gatherings. The fruits and veggies are fresh, lots of healthy choices await.

Low-key Trader Joe, always busy but never feels over full. Everything's fresh and high quality. It's a smaller TJ so it doesn't have all the hot food and salad bars some TJs have, but the selection is excellent and all the major TJ favorites are here. Never had a problem finding parking. Staff are friendly and helpful.

Our main grocery providers. Good value for money, adequate selection and super staff. Packaging can be a bit funky. Main reason for not rating it a five is the tendency for items to kind of disappear. Latest casualty: Garden Patch tomato based vegetable cocktail.Big time rearrangement. Coffee and tea where the samples used to be. Other innovations. Oh, well...

I visited this store on my vacation from NC, and it was great seeing fresh california strawberries cheaper than the ones i see at home. Other than that, all the products are basically the same as you would see at any trader joes. Its all excellent quality stuff, especially the produce, and thats why i mainly shop here. All the employees seem happier than at other stores, and always eager to help. Its a great store.

I bought some vegetarian soups from Trader Joe's. They were amazing. The store is a little pricier than other comparable stores but they carry healthier foods....Non- GMO, organic, and grown without synthetic fertilizers and pesticides. Overall my experience in the store was good. The staff were friendly. This specific location is a busy one. Parking spots are squeezed and at times you will be lucky to find one.

Lines took forever. Finally another customer complained and they opened 5 more registers. Very fast. Prices were great. Fruit was fresh. Lots of parking.

Love, love, love TJ's! I have asked, as well as a few of my friends, to bring TJ'S to Twin Falls!! The closest one to us is in Boise, and that's just too far away. When I go visiting and I know there is a Trader Joes, I always make a stop to pick up necessities to take home, and delights for my time there. I can't like without some of my TJ'S staples.The staff at every store is fantastic, and without equal. They hire the perfect people and must train them outstandingly! They never point you to where an item you are seeking is, or tell you the isle number, they TAKE YOU THERE! Wow, what a fantastic customer service experience!Did I mention I just LOVE Trader Joes?!

Best place to buy Gerolsteiner by the case. If you're not drinking Gerolsteiner, you're missing out.

10/1/23 any rules about offering to put items in personal back pack? Alex B. Cashier not making much effort considering the lines are backed up, but his bagger at least offered to bag one of the two meat items I had purchased. My apologies for asking for another bag to wrap the hamburger in.Spacious store, clan, and the cashier was kind enough to bag my items ( usually employees/cashier watch me bag my items if I bring own bag). Thank you for bagging!
