20491 Alton Pkwy unit c, Lake Forest“I recently visited the Stater Bros. market in Lake Forest, and I was thoroughly impressed by their exceptional selection and presentation. The fresh meats section was particularly outstanding, offering a wide variety of cuts that are perfect for any cooking needs. The meat is always fresh and well-priced, making it my go-to spot for all my grilling essentials.
Additionally, the store itself is a delight to shop in. The aisles are beautifully arranged and impeccably clean, creating a welcoming shopping environment. The staff is friendly and helpful, always ready to assist and answer any questions.
Overall, Stater Bros. in Lake Forest is a fantastic grocery store that combines quality, variety, and excellent customer service. Highly recommended for anyone looking for top-notch groceries in a pleasant setting.”
“I love this spot for Mexican sweet bread because of the price. Their bread is a hit or miss though because some can be stale but they are full of flavor and definitely worth it for the price (about $1 each) They have a variety of products from Mexico. Everyone who works here is also so kind! Will definitely be coming back. Bread: 8/10 Service: 10/10”
“I shop here weekly, and I liked it. You might be wondering why I'm giving only four stars, that's because every single avocado I've gotten from this place I've had to throw away. What's more, whenever I get berries from there, they're already going bad or I didn't see that there's mold growing inside the package. The people who work here are friendly, it's a clean and inviting space, but their berries and avocados should just be taken off the shelves and never sold. I've wasted entirely too much money thinking that the fruit that I buy from them was going to be good when I got home.”
“Stopped by here for a tray of their delicious tortilla chips and took one look at their Chile rellenos and had to try one. So glad I did. They're huge and sooooo delicious. The service is always great, staff is always super friendly, place is always clean.”
“So here is the deal. I am half afraid to share this because this place is a gem ?! I can buy wonder marinated meats.. ceviche.. dairy.. chicharron.. and a bunch of produce and hit only $80. Sometimes $70 and sometimes $50. They have a smoothie bar that’s probably the best one around…. As the produce is right there, The fresh produce looks better and is ripe and great looking and better than Bristol farms or whole paycheck. It’s a fast shopping store with a fresh hot food to go as well - and it’s aaaahmazing!! do not expect big grocery carts here. It’s fresh ripe food that you eat this week or in the next few days. I truly love this shop as it’s perfect for me by myself and even better when there were more of us. Just for reference they had beautifully RIPE RED SWEET SMELLING strawberries for under $3 a pack, like RIPE RED strawberries- not those white topped unripe hard bland berries like at a regular store. Really. Even the butcher shop is really really awesome. It is not the same as a big grocery store chain but everything has been fantastic. I don’t speak Spanish but every single person there has been great and it’s nice to shop in a place without having to listen to the obnoxious thinly veiled racism from other customers directed at others. Bravo to this store. You could in fact get all your weekly groceries here just fine. I mostly do - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Shout out to Myra the manager at this location for her promptness and customer service.
There were other managers walking around the store that literally made eye contact with me but would not even come up to me and inquire about why I was standing there.
Store location needs to recognize her attributes and skills when it comes to people.
Thank you, Myra for being the only one to come up and help me!”
“It's been my favorite store since I discovered it. Here you can find some European products that cannot be found in another store or for the price much more expensive. I love this store especially because of the various sorts of cheese and vine, and because whenever I visit it it has a different assortment of products and I never know what I will buy this time for really cheap price.”
“Looked all over the city for pork shoulder to roast. No where only cut up boneless loin chops. Smart n Final you had a perfect whole pork shoulder roast. Octoberfest in full swing! Will check back for a whole turkey on sale in November.”

“A very quick pit-stop at this Ralph’s location in Lake Forest, Ca.
Came in for a few things, 2 Lt root beer, a gift card from Cheesecake Factory, and a birthday card lol.
Easy way around the store. Well organized, well lit, kept nice and clean.
Cashier was awesome, her name is Jessica. Too funny. Very kind with an excellent sense of humor.
Lots of parking available.”

“This is the cleanest and well organized with lots of options compared to other stores. I usually go to Cerritos but it’s been so long I have been to Cerritos. They have the best vegetables, so fresh and I asked for fresh ratalu and immediately In two days they called me. My wife particularly likes there Okra. I see lately there are quite a few promotions. Hope they will continue this for longer time.”
