OMG! Snake River Farm Wagyu at Safeway!!! YES! I made this wagyu prime rib, gluten free desserts, charcuterie and more for Christmas all from Safeway. Wagyu came out perfect and every bite melted in your mouth from all of the marbling. My Christmas present all year long is the staff at this Safeway. It feels like family when you walk in the door. Everyone is so welcoming and beyond helpful. I always leave feeling valued and smiling. Thank you, Natalie, Angela, and team!

Standard grocery store. The staff has always been very helpful whenever I needed help finding things or having things unlocked. The store is set up in a really weird way.
