Ralphs

I needed to get some lunch and read a review that gave a thumbs up for the sushi. I was greatly disappointed. There is no sushi bar. There is a limited selection and not high quality (California rolls and imitation crab).
On the other hand, the store was clean. Produce selection was fresh and comparable prices as any other Raplhs. Easy to get around and friendly staff. One floor assistant who is hearing impaired was very helpful.

I have been going to the pharmacy at this location for around six months. Recently they have gotten a pharmacy tech that is fresh out of school and comes complete with a horrible attitude. Eva refused to help me and gave me incorrect information based on the medication I am taking. The pharmacist is pleasant but bends to the techs decision making. I am transferring my service to another pharmacy due to the constant inconsistency that this tech brings to Ralph’s pharmacy.

The deli counter at location is fantastic, I love how clean it is! Linda helped me today and I was being a snob about how thick I like my meat (shut up dirty minds) and she sliced the ham perfectly! There is something about the perfectly sliced BOARS HEAD DELUXE HAM when it’s sliced paper thin that just tastes like meat perfection!
I love how clean and wide the isles are. Let me tell you the selection of cold cuts are great and once you have Boars Head you cannot try anything else.
Ralph’s is the only grocery store that carries that cold cut perfection of a product
REMINDS ME OF NY DELI
KUDOS!

I actually like shopping at Ralphs. It is my favorite store. But I am always bummed out to see so much of their foods packaged in totally unnecessary plastic packaging (e.g., all bakery and roasted chicken items are in stupid bubble boxes). I am from a generation that bought roasted chicken in a foil lined bag (I don’t eat dead animal flesh anymore, however) and bakery items in cardboard boxes.
If it’s not already too late, we should no longer be accepting mindless plastic packaging (further supporting the petroleum industry).
«The world is flooded with plastic garbage.
There will be more plastic than fish in terms of weight in the world’s oceans by 2050, the World Economic Forum warned Tuesday.»

I normally refuse to buy in Palm Springs because of the extra sales tax and the city-​imposed grocery bag ban, but I was desperate and needed a couple items so I went in. Total pandemonium. Parking lot has all sorts of lines and instructions but not a single driver bothered to stop at a line that says «stop» so traffic in and out of the lot is a mess, with the addition of random homeless people just wandering around the lot like it’s some video game, and you have to swerve to avoid them just standing in the driving lanes. A wide variety of items are available but prices are high — even with the Ralph’s card, and shelves are pushed closer together than in other stores so that aisles are slightly narrower. Two carts can barely get by each other — just barely, but if someone stops to look at something and their cart isn’t up against the shelf, huge backups ensue. Staff looked harassed and unfriendly. Doubtful I’ll ever return.

Great store do most of my food shopping there I recommend you can also do self checkout that’s pretty good so 5 stars

I wish this Ralph’a would be half as clean as the one on Palm Canyon. The deli specifically in this Ralph’s is so disappointing. The food is never fresh, the cases are filthy. And it is like this all the time. Not just once in a while.

First of all, I am not a grocery store fan AT ALL. The land of processed food and artificial everything is not my jam. When Fresh and Easy closed here, I was forced to try out this Ralph’s because its near me and there are no Whole Paychecks in my area, or Trader Joes. (bummerz)
Gotta say, its all about approaching this store like a thrift shop, avoid lots of it and know where the good stuff is. Their selection of vegan, gluten free and organic is really good for a big store. The reason Im going with a five star is THE PRODUCE !!! really really good produce and that says a lot for the desert where produce is notoriously bad. The store is clean, well organized and doesn’t have «Christian Rock» piped in on the speaker system like Fresh and Easy did. Random right?
Keep up the good work Ralph’s !

Personally I love this Ralph’s store compared to the others in Los Angeles. I always find things here I don’t find in LA. Always clean and very well stocked every time I am here. Never have a problem here and the employees are helpful.
Will be back again next trip to PS.

Okay that’s it. Prices are definitely NOT cheaper anymore. Prices keep going up UP and UP. Not saving any money shopping here anymore. Goodbye. So long. Shop elsewhere.

Love this Ralphs and can’t do about all. Especially late hours, which when walking home at 12am this was go to spot!
Great deals, big store, by Starbucks!
Employees overall excellent!
Annita rocks as manager, as she is fast, thorough, creates connections with shoppers through small gestures that are grand to me!
A manager like her I would raise and reward!
Love clearance section!
Produce section is good
Good job to this store so reward them all!
God bless+++

Clean well managed store. I love it. I went in for some groceries got some milk some turkey some roast beef the service was great I would definitely use the store again

This is the worst store in Palm Springs, there is always a poor selection of meat and what there is available is very expensive. The store closes one of its doors at 7:45 pm why not just close both doors and let a good market like Whole Foods or Bristol Farms move in, they are expensive but they have Baku products.

Well stocked supermarket! Had a list of items for an impromptu party and found everything in less than 15 minutes. As I am from out of town the cashier used the Mgr loyalty number so I enjoyed the ‘valued shopper’ discount. And they have a fully stocked lottery vending machine!!! Wish this store was up north.

Love the store!
the pharmacy, that’s another story. THEY ripped us off for 1 ½ saying they matched Costco prices, they never checked their prices on any of the scripts! after a 1 ½ we caught him in a dirty lie! we called corporate offices (RALPHS) and they did the right thing refunded us almost $ 300 in cash, that day. So unethical! ‘THEY’ got busted! Love the store, but will never give them business for any meds until he/​THEY ARE gone!

Perfectly serviceable Ralphs with everything you need. My go-​to supermarket whenever I’m in Palm Springs. Which is to say, I buy booze there. Lots of booze.

Awesome service, great staff, great deals! Im always swinging by there! :-)

I’ve always appreciated the late night hours this location offers and being able to take whatever time needed in an un-​rushed, quiet timezone. Sometimes you just need to wander around the aisles and think about life. Or laundry. When I say late, I mean open until 1AM. For Palm Springs, thats like saying 24 Hours.
I still have to do daytime shopping though. Lately I’ve noticed quite an improvement with the overall energy of the place and its staff. The changes are notable and I want to say Great Job to everyone. We see it. Very much so.
I like the wedge salad in deli dept. A lot. #OKbye

Quick Notes: A friend went and bought a Ralph’s/Western money order and I went to cash it and the store refused, even with groceries. The store manager said, he has two options 1. Open a checking account somewhere or 2. Send it to Western Union and wait 14 days for them to refund it by another «check.». Its a stupid policy, if your accepting payment for something personal don’t accept a money order, get cash.

Normally I wouldn’t bother writing a review… just go to another store but this is the Ralph’s closest to my home and work. Secondly, Ralph’s in Palm Desert and on Palm Canyon are totally different. Customer service and Deli much better at these two stores and the employees actually acknowledge you. It’s really hard to believe they are all the same chain. And last… here’s an idea Sunrise Store, how about having the deli and salad bar open and ready first thing instead on 10:30am or whenever…
Company Executives, it would behoove you to read these reviews.
