Decades ago this store went by the name of Southwest Market and it smelled terrible from rancid meat as soon as you entered the door.
Through acquisitions and mergers, this store became a food City and it also smelled terrible from the same problematic rancid meat as soon as you entered the door.
While the smell of rancid meat has improved and gotten substantially better over time, this establishment seems to be habitually falling short and missing the mark with it's meger improvement. I personally no longer buy meat here due to serious "trust issues" as it always seems to go bad almost immediately after purchase. It would appear that older produce is simply pulled to the front while fresh produce is dumped to the back of the void. This often leaves substandard produce that's clearly past it's prime within easy reach of shoppers for sale instead of being thrown away.
With isolated exceptions, the staff is consistently rude and often proves unhelpful, the security guy acts like he's on a war footing with all customers. Prices, while claiming to be on sale are often no bargain here, factor in the stock that should be discarded still being offered for sale and it's no wonder food city's market share is seriously fading. The place is obviously horribly neglected, it's visibly run down and appears to be in a nose dive while on autopilot.
I suppose it's to be expected when you have no shame in what you pawn off as acceptable and no pride in what you do.
Despite the parking lot being recently renovated, I have some serious concerns over whoever painted these lines???? It all obviously points to a bigger systemic problem of staff indifference.

Maybe came on a bad day. They had old Avocados on sale for 2 for a dollar.
I would give it to my dog.

On August 26th at 1152am my brother and I had paid for our groceries at the food city on 3030 E 22nd st Tucson, Az.
Prior to going into the store I was still in my car and opening our car door an employee named Maria told us we weren’t allowed to bring my brothers emotional support dog in with us. My brother and I had told her that what she was telling us was strictly against the law and cannot be telling customers this if the service animal is already registered.
She then said well your dog is going to bite someone. I said mam clearly you are in the wrong and you really need to leave us alone and allow us to do our shopping peacefully. My brothers dog is a 1 years old small poodle and it’s breed is far from being aggressive clearly more of a cheerful dog. We then were approached by Olga who was looking for us in the store. We once again had to let her know they are in the wrong for saying this to customers with service animals. My brother is an Army Vet and his dog is allowed to be with him inside the store.
We were approaching the self check out to pay for our stuff and Maria decided to tell me that I was not allowed to use the register I had to go to the register with an employee. I asked why am I not allowed to use it? She stated that it was running very very slow. I looked around at the other registers and customers were scanning just fine without any issues.
I was baffled by her response through out our entire store shopping experience.
We were attacked I felt as my brother and I were very much harassed by Maria outside the store first then self
check-out. I’ve never had any issues shopping at food city through out my years as a kid and as an adult. But, August 26th Maria made my brother and I feel uncomfortable.
I asked the cashier if I can get the corporate number to file a complaint. Maria over heard me and stated “you want someone I get you manager now” (her exact words” and got on the phone and paged Olga. I said mam I have the number just leave my brother and I alone. But her demeanor was clearly to continue to harassing us. After spending $203.05 at food city I left there beyond confused to the treatment an employee named Maria gave us that day.
The worst experience ever.
It doesn’t even deserve 1 star. But, in order to post a review I have to select a star. Clearly it should be no star.

Really friendly crew at this Food City! And I always appreciate their good produce at good prices! Unfortunately, their truck didn't get in as expected so the cilantro, mint, lettuce were not as fresh as normal. But I found some nice sale prices on some regular groceries. Like most of us...trying to watch for sales & planning our meals around them! Elections have consequences, as they say---important to have people running our wonderful country that understand economics! And have experience running a business.

A few days ago my mom went to food city and told me there was a guy named Manny Esquer who helped her with her groceries into my moms car he went above and beyond! I just wanted to reach out and say thank you so much for your help.

I like the midtown location of this Food City but the quality and selection of the other locations in town is significantly better, especially the one on 6th. This location frequently has produce that’s gone bad and I wish there was more pan dulce. I like that they carry verdolagas sometimes though.

One of my favorite grocery stores in Tucson. Wish they hadn't gotten rid of the frozen potato pirogis though.
