This review is based solely on the brisket I purchased yesterday. I was in a rush and thought, how bad could a brisket from Albertsons be for the smoking I planned to do the following morning. Well, it’s bad… real bad. The brisket in the package looked decent, even had a not too thick fat cap; however, when I started to trim the fat, I noticed that easily ½ of the ‘meat’ was fat. Because I had to split the brisket in order to get it into the smoker, I noticed that over half of the inside was fat. I never would have noticed this if I didn’t do a split. When it was all said and done, my 10.3 lb brisket now weighed 5.2 lbs… yes, I weighed it. This store may be fine for ‘grocery’ items, but not for meat.

Compared to the other Albertsons I’ve been to, this one looks smaller. It only has one entrance. But it’s still nice. It has the same offerings as any other Albertsons, but everything just looks more squished together with less open space. They even have soda can art inside like the other ones. It has self checkouts too.

This store is THEMOST unfriendly Albertsons! No one smiles, and they actually act surly. I will go out of my to not shop here. Shame on you Albertsons!

24⁄100 I don’t normally shop at Albertsons but this one is on the way so I stopped by to grab something for breakfast. This store is clean and huge. They now bake fresh bagels. It is a perfect way to start the morning with a box of hot fresh baked bagels. The smell that was coming from bakery at 7 A.M. was amazing. I am hooked. My favorite is Cinnamon/raisin and regular. They have great selection of cream cheese to make it a perfect breakfast. On unrelated note, they have great Root Beer«Teddy’s.» Whenever I buy it, my family swears it is the best they ever tasted.

I have been going to this supermarket because it is close to where I live. I do not think I will returning. On Monday, I bought some chili. I forgot to look at the expiration date. When I got home, it expired May 2014. It is July right now. The first time I visited this supermarket, I actually saw moldy pre-made pizza dough hanging on the shelf. Gross! Another time I visited, the small red tomatoes were green and fuzzy in the case. I gave it to the produce guy to throw away. And now the chili. I supppose it is my fault that I did not check the date but do supermarkets not check the dates also? How is it possible that something can be a couple of months expired or moldy?

I have been living here for a decade or so and I have yet to review my neighborhood market? What is up with that? This Albertsons is one of the smaller ones, but I never go in for something I can’t find. They have good produce and meat here, as well as the usual assortment of other staples and desires. There is a pharmacy in the back, a Red Box, a coin star(no service fee for some gift certificates), and even a bank(though I don’t bank with them).

Cheaper Craft beers! Decent selection too. I feel like this place has really stepped up its game over the past couple of months. The employees are friendlier, the place is cleaner…

All the times we’ve taken the streets home from Irvine and passed this Albertsons we finally stopped in! This location is huge! Me and my mom were blown away when we saw how big this store is! I was able to find things that I wouldn’t normally be able to find at usual store! There are 2 points why I can’t give them 5 stars :( –No wing bar! I’m an avid wing lover and couldn’t find a wing bar! –Seafood selection is soooo tiny! My mom and ATG love Salmon and they didn’t have many pieces and selections of seafood for a big store! My mom bought 4 pieces of fish and the display looked empty after she bought the fish! However, upon checking out at the self serve lanes, a nice cashier was so friendly and helpful to us! I will definitely come back here on the way home! ^_^

Don’t normally shop at Albertsons, but was in the area and needed to quickly pick up a couple of things for a 4th of July party. Was having trouble finding what I was looking for, so I asked one of the workers. Walter saw my list, and within minutes I had everything. Walter was by far the most helpful, personable, and happy grocery store worker I have ever encountered. He was even the one who bagged my groceries. Walter’s service was 5stars for sure, but the overall selection was average at best.

Default location. If you shop here regularly, it’s probably just because it is the default grocery store closest to wherever you live… you probably live in Orange Hills or the canyons and this shopping center is the closest bit of civilization/retail near you. That is why I shopped here and that is the only reason I can see as to why anyone would come here with any regularity. Item selection is poor if you are not into buying mainstream, non-organic, GMO foods. Customer service is absent and borderline rude. Pros: Lots of parking, last stop for groceries, Redbox, quiet in non-peak hours Cons: Customer service, selection, creepy people in the parking lot at night Don’t go here unless you have to…

Ok food selection, but as for employees… All 10x I shopped, had to deal with the rudest, unhappy lady. Yetta is her name! We actually switched stores because of her :(
