Ralphs is a clean, well-kept, and organized supermarket offering a wide selection of thousands of quality fresh products, including produce, meats, seafood, and dairy. It provides excellent service and attention with friendly, helpful, and genuine staff, though some prices are a little high. The store has reasonable prices and several weekly specials. However, there is notable frustration with the lack of human cashiers and a push toward self-checkout, which some customers dislike, sometimes leading to upset interactions. Some also note high security at night. It remains a refuge of middle-class comfort for many.
