Provided by YP.comI wish I could love this place because they have some unique items, but the crazed parking situation (it's usually just as gridlocked inside the store as it is outside) turns me off.

Provided by YPmobileMy local Trader Joes, sure it's kinda small and the parking is usually a nightmare but they have all of those delicious items we have to have. Try the soup dumplings....yum.

Provided by YP.comThis is our family's go to grocery store. The staff is very helpful and friendly. And the products are( for the most part) in stock. We've been coming here for years! They always have a great selection of healthy, organic foods at reasonable prices.

Provided by YP.comWe do most of our shopping here and farmers market. The staff are incredibly cheery and helpful. It is well stocked and they are always asking to improve. Parking can be tricky, but walking there is the answer!

Provided by YP.comLove Trader Joe's but this is the worst parking lot I've ever been to. They should make it one way in and one way out. They also share it with a dry clean and Pizza Hut.

Provided by YP.comOh Trader Joe's....I love you. But I hate you. Shopping at TJ's during normal working people's available shopping hours (any time on the weekends or after 5pm on weekdays) is just awful. It's h#ll on earth with reasonably priced organic produce. Don't get me wrong, the staff are friendly and helpful and I love the merchandise and the prices, but dear god....from the aneurysm inducing parking lot to the panic attack inducing aisles, it can be quite the clusterfxck. Seriously, after last night's shopping trip I felt like I needed a drink. Or a Valium. Hell, I could have used both.
If you have the luxury of being able to do your shopping at 2pm on a random Wednesday, take advantage of this. You'll be able to browse all the great products at your leisure. But if you go on weekends or weeknights, forget it. You need to have a plan. You need to know your list by heart as there is nowhere to stop for 10 seconds to make sure you're not forgetting anything. You cannot stop to check the dates on produce. Can't decide between regular feta & the reduced fat version? TOO BAD. Keep it moving or else you'll p!ss everyone off. This can be a problem because some of the produce isn't as fresh as it should be. On numerous occasions I've had to throw out produce because I realized it was moldy when I brought it home. Examples of this are the pomegranate seeds and raspberries. If you have the time, really look at it to make sure it's fresh enough to last a few days.
The prices and selection keep me coming back. I just wish the store had wider aisles and a bigger parking lot.
