Gelson's has better quality meats than WholeFoods and Lazy Acres. If you like good quality grass fed beef, Gelson's is the best. I highly recommend them. I'm a fan.

Yes this market is expensive and tbh I don't shop there for most of my staple groceries. I do go there for the great food in their deli department - some amazing staples to try: Thai peanut pasta; all of Jessica's salads and their bread- fresh from the oven - yummm! Great salad bar and I love their poke bar - very fresh and easy to customize. They have fresh produce that stays fresh at home - I stopped buying produce from the market across the street because it consistently rots within a day or 2. Customer service is ALWAYS on their A-game. All markets should take their cue on how to treat people from Gelson's business model.

Sharon on the phone was so nice and helpful. She put the special ice cream away for me and within the hour I picked it up. The other associate was also so helpful. I got the last item in store and a special item so didn't know if would get more! Great store!

The line @ deli most times is backed up. Wish you would place more help behind the counter. Was forced me to pick up pre-packaged items i really did not want.

It seems to be a fine grocery store. But I don't like the cashier. Last customer before me was a white man, the cashier was so nice to him. But for me, she did not even say hi to me, not mentioning to ask me if I had a membership or not. Not even any thank you and bye. I really don't like it, I felt be treated differently.

In he past 6-12 months I have found that many items are not as readily available. As an example: Lipton dry onion soup, certain high end organic eggs, many of the tomatoes were over-ripened, the romaine lettuce is a very poor quality, the green beans were over ripened and soft; instead of fresh and firm. Also, you’ve removed small paper bags from the vegetable department which I have found ideal for keeping certain things fresher, such as avocados.

Items I had asked the Bakery to set aside were waiting for me when I arrived. The Bakery is one of the best in Orange County, with an Eastern European take on pastries and superb chocolate and other cakes.

Took home readymade foods. So many dishes made with high quality ingredients. Great sushi items as well.

At the last minute (11/22/23) I rushed over to Gelsons Irvine to see if I could get a small amount of sliced turkey from the carving station. Of corse it was closed, but to my delight the deli was open and there were already brined and roasted breasts. You could only get a whole 1/2 breast or a half 1/2 breast, so I went for the latter as only my husband was having turkey. She put some juices in the box and I was able to get turkey gravy, too. My husband loved it! Yes it's expensive at $16.99 a lb, but t was delicious and saved the day! I will repeat for Christmas The gal at the counter was very pleasant and helpful.

Nice salad bar but vegetables frequently frozen then flabby. Stale cookies and not much of a selection of baked goods. No smell of fresh bread. I would like to see a larger selection of crab and goat products for lunch during the breakfast hours, so that I can grab a meal for later. It would be a suggestion for this company to rethink who they are in the community and take it vantage of those customers.

Gelsons is always a great market with a great selection of great food and friendly service. Their fish is always delicious and fresh. They also have good meats?breads, and salads. I also enjoy their snacks, such as nuts, deviled eggs, and Inari sushi. The employees are very friendly and helpful to customers, which is always a plus. The decor inside is nice and modern, which I like too. The con is that their prices are higher than the average market. Overall, Gelsons is a great market to get fresh and delicious seafood, meat, bread, snacks, and salad. I recommend shopping here.

I love shopping here because the staff is so friendly! I was looking for something sweet the other night, but thr bakery was closed. The cashier informed me that they were a completely separate outlet within the store, but gave me some other options. Its a small gesture but it made a huge difference for me. Im in the service industry so things like this really do make an impact. I was very grateful ??and thanks to her being so sweet, I'll be back.You've done well with your staff, and the organization, and the overall cleanliness of your location here in Irvine.Thank you!
