A Green Alternative Medical Marijuana Dispensary

great service, huge variety! super clean store. doesn’t feel sketchy walking in and out of this place!

This dispensary has a huge variety of products. The staff are very helpful and friendly. I recently discovered that they sell cannabis oil for dogs! Home delivery service is available.

This is the first dispensary I been to,
I got Northern lights this is amazing but it seems to be a problem keeping in stock 2 times they were out I used a different dispensary and tried Fire OG
This is good but not as good as Northern
Lights but at ½ the cost I can get over it. Now I tried again but once again they are out of stock … It’s a supply and demand. If you can’t supply they will go somewhere else I give 2 stars for a few reasons the main one is they don’t always stock what your looking for and there a bit pricey and it’s not the easiest place to get to.

Excellent and professional service. Staff was very polite and took time to answer and find your exact need. Only place to go!

Staff was not very helpful, not nice, hate that you can’t split 8’s they don’t weight in front of you, and not good deal’s at all.

First LEGAL MMJ dispensary in the county! The staff is super helpful, knowledgable, and friendly. Great selection and reasonable prices. I wish they had a menu/​pricing board but I know the last time I was in, they said they were working on that. You’ve got a friend in me.

Progress! This place is a great sign of progress for the city. Following the rules, setting a good example, they are doing everything right. The staff is super friendly, educated, and understand that taking the time to get to know a customer’s needs is a very important part of creating a return customer. They have excellent product and are always getting new stuff in. It has been a bit since I’ve been into the store due to its location; however, they offer free delivery, so that helps. If they haven’t already, it would be nice if they had a board that displayed the different products and prices. I’m a visual person, so it’s hard for me to follow along and remember the different prices and sizes as I’m shopping.

AWSOME! Always a good selection. Hardly ever a wait. Awsome customer service. Some of the security guys are a little harsh but other than that. Perfect.

My only go to dispensary best quality and service. Always have the best quality medicine and friendly customer service

Adriana the bud tender is the best! The place is very clean, professional, and welcoming. The top shelf is great bud, but a bit pricey. They have a wide variety of meds to choose from. I recommend this place to all.

Awesome clinic, great service and prices! Absolutely genuine, quality, and top of the line, from the product to the waiting room. Definitely a satisfying experience. m:-)

This is my second time and I have nothing but nice things to say. Parking. Security. Professional. Clean. It’s nice to go in and the representatives are not medicated and the dispensary as a whole are friendly. The only down fall is its so far south. So for me this is close if not at a two hr event. 20 mins both ways. The wait time on a good day for them is about ten mins. «I’m sure the rate they are going it can get longer» not saying how long it will take me to shop is about another ¹⁰⁄₁₅ mins. As long as they keep a smile on my face and remain professional. I will return. Thank you #AGA. I’m leaning more towards edibles. I can monitor my mg’s. I highly suggest the Kiva bars. 180 mg sounds pricy but you don’t have to take the full 45. One night I did have of that dose. I was able to sleep. Once again thank you #AGA!!! Good job! #2016 ballot! Vote! Sí Se puede!!!

Still holding judgement on the rating .
Service was fair but hampered by the fact that there was no comprehensive menus in store. Rather than resort to pulling up their web page (which dose have one) I chose vape oil as an easy out. That said they have everything I’ve seen at any other collective .
Prices are slightly higher than the last few places I shopped but lower than the pricy places I’ve walked out of .
The distance from the city center makes it prohibitive for the seriously ill but that is caused by the district attorney and the city council, and the endemic refusal to see a state legalized pharmaceutical as that rather than a recreational drug. In a city with three liqueur stores or bars on every commercial block the fact that a clean pharmaceutical can not be distributed before the middle of the day or near a church or park Is reprehensible .
That said the store is trying to find a way to pay taxes which I respect so I will continue to shop here until something closer opens up. What remains to be seen is if the council will use taxation to make things more mainstream and easier for the ill using these services or find a new way to punish us with it .
As to other reviews some clarification is needed. I’m hoping you are in-​correct about a professor «owning it» and also about it being a business. As I understand state law
A medical dispensary is required to be a collective run by members.

5 Unilocal STARS for being the first to open legal medical marijuana facility. Many of my friends who use medicinal marijuana have prayed for this day to finally arrive. A legitimate SDSU professor owns the business and he followed all the various city demands and requirements to the letter. People who utilize services like this should be thanking their lucky stars that a legal dispensary is now open and available for them instead of complaining about the location.
I will gladly drive down to buy some medical brownies to thank this place for getting it together and being a great example of how a medicinal businesses are just like any other business and not some druggie hothouse that will ruin everything else around it!

I drove from Rancho Bernard this morning to visit the opening of «A Green Alternative». What a treat, I felt like family. Plenty of Edible medicines to choose from. Lots of high quality flower. I took my time and didn’t feel rushed at all. I would highly recommend this dispensary. Thank you Green Alt & San Diego City Counsel

Awesome products, for great prices!
The staff and owners are very friendly and knowledgeable. They recommended a couple of strains for me, and I’m very happy with them.
They are also very discreet, and always on time with my deliveries.
I highly recommend this dispensary! :)
