We call this place, the giant Jewel because it is huge. Bonus that there is a large selection of Kosher foods for those needing that. When I shop there, I generally come away without something that was on my list. The area around the meat counter always has a nasty, unclean smell about it. I will never buy meat from here. I often go out of my way just to shop at another Jewel.

As of November, this place is selling rotten expired food! The yogurt and produce I bought was rotten... the arizona canned tea was rotten..I also couldn't find meat for a roast or chicken?? Look at how old the meat is... the fresh stuff was leaking blood all over. CLOSE THIS LOCATION DOWN!

Just moved into the area, visited this store for the first time. Though it's a fully stock store it was a total mess. You could t go down the aisle without running into planks of boxes. It's so chaotic. People and employees are not friendly and shoppers are in such a rush. And the cashier was so slow. SMH 🤦🏽♀️
Jewel is my favorite shopping store however, I will shop in the city where know employees smile and offer assistance instead of bothersome attitude. Where are the days when people were just happy ?
