- ODOllin DoyleNov 7, 20255.0The customer service rep that overseas the self checkout area went out of her way to make my Apple gift card purchases possible. We had to use several different checkout counters to get the purchases go through. But she never blinked an eye. I don't know about the rest of the store but she was excellent.
- JDJ DNov 5, 20254.0A great smaller store. Usually you can expect friendly and helpful staff as well as a quick in and out. However the area is a lot like the rest of Sacramento with homeless wandering about.
- DLdaniel lopezNov 3, 20251.0The store barely meets basic corporate standards and to Nichole Robinson shift lead who in the world thinks is normal or appropriate for you to not only bring your kids to work but let them run around the store and bump into customers without any recourse? Corporate intervention looks necessary for this location.
- JMJeff McIntyreOct 31, 20252.0I would not recommend this Safeway. The clientele are rude and pushy (not Safewaystfault). Certain items are not easy to find or could not be found (example: individual servings of potato salad or macaroni salad). Some items were overpriced (Bai for $2.79). Also it's an older store.
- TMTopanga MunozOct 31, 20255.0Needed a special birthday cake at the last minute, and they were happy to help.
