- JCjames camelionFeb 18, 20265.0Vons is a reliable neighborhood grocery store with a great selection of fresh produce, meats, and everyday essentials. The store is usually clean and well organized, making it easy to find what you need. The staff is friendly and helpful, and checkout is generally quick.

- TSTj StrobenDec 29, 20254.0A 5 Star in every way, products, deli, and employees. The bad part is the width of the aisles. Even smaller stores ave wider aisles. It’s ridiculous to navigate when people don’t hug the sides. Then you have people, like I can be, who are in a hurry or their own little world, and they completely block the aisle because they are unaware of anyone or anything else around them. (Guilty at times) Then it’s the shuffle trying to scoot the cart over after that. This has been my neighborhood, Vons for over 30 years, and I would love it to be my only Vons, but, if I’m around a bigger one, I will stop there quite often, and avoid this one.

- MMMonica MartinezDec 1, 20251.0So many expired items. So many!!! I don’t see how this place isn’t been fined for having so much expired food on the shelves. Major food safety concern.
- JSJulie SNov 9, 20251.0This Vons has to be the most dangerous store I’ve ever shopped in, if they can allow customers see this what’s going on behind the scenes. Clearly the freezer is not holding at freezing and everything ‘‘tis thawing and somehow refreezing. I pointed this out and said to a guy from the meat dept, “this isn’t safe and good for customers to see,” he said, “Oh that’s like that because the freezer door isn’t sealing right.” I told him it was very dangerous because of food poisoning but he basically shrugged it off. And the aisles are so small you can hardly get 2 carts down the aisles. Update: I went back to the store to pick up milk and the turkeys are still there with lumps of ice all over them, looks like no one cares.
