Nob Hill Foods

I love shopping at this store! It's nice, clean and quiet. Every time I need help with something, the stuff is more than happy to assist me and give me a solution. Bryan (supervisor), Edi, Jay, Pedro, Carlos, Rhonda, Dennis, Paty, and almost everybody always welcome me with a beautiful smile. Thank you all for making me feel appreciated!

I've been shopping here for 10+ years, and it used to be such a nice experience every time I went. The last three times the service has been terrible - whomever the night manager is has made the experience and ambiance unpleasant and stressful! A few weeks ago it was 10:30 pm, 30 minutes before closing, and she completely lost her temper and started swearing (f-bombs, a**hole, and on) for over five minutes because this customer wanted plastic bags instead of paper. And she wouldn't stop swearing even after he submitted and went silent. She had a line five people deep and self checkout was busy too!
Second time I went and she accosted me personally in a aisle and yelled at me that they were closed. It was ten minutes before closing. There was an issue with a couple items I was checking out and she just left me at the register, waiting for almost ten minutes, looking directly at me as she walked on by to do whatever else she was doing. That experienced ended with her slamming the sliding doors behind me.
The third time her and the security guard for some reason were thinking I was stealing alcohol, asked me where I put it (!) and then proceeded to watch me check out and follow me out the door. First of all, I do not buy my wine there, not when Trader J's is SO much cheaper. It felt uncomfortable and she stared at me with outright contempt.
Why would continue to shop here? Nob Hill please do better. Either get her some professional training or hire someone else.

Super fun to shop here as they have very gourmet and unusual items. I appreciate the fun foods and the in house Peets coffee shop. Also hot Chinese food deli and sushi deli in addition to regular deli.

A friend buys his prime rib from Nob Hill and loves the USDA Choice Harris Ranch sourced beef that they sell. I normally get my prime rib from a warehouse club, but for a recent party, I decided to get a prime rib from Nob Hill and give it a try. I bought a 22.88 lb full rack that was in cryovac packaging.

The roast was slow cooked medium rare and the test was to see how tender it would be. With the prime rib served, it was so tender and juicy and my guests agreed as well.

It was my first purchase of a Harris Ranch prime rib from Nob Hill and it exceeded my expectations. I'll highly consider getting another prime rib for this year's holiday season.

So disappointed. Sunday at 6:15, one checker. The line was 50 feet long.

I'm the guy who called out "are you going to open another line"?
No response. Had to feel pity for the poor checker stranded by his manager.

Those 3 gallon water bottles that belonged to me that I just filled at your distilled water machine?
I left them in the cart and walked out. I'm not waiting 20 minutes to buy 3.00 worth of water.

You will get no more business from me. I don't reward bad management with my business.

Trader Joe's had EIGHT checkers working when I arrived to buy water 15 minutes later.

WHAT, how is it that I do not have a review for Nob Hill???

Quality/Quantity - I buy all my beef from Nob Hill (Raley's) because they just seem to have the best quality beef.

Atmosphere - Nice local Nob Hill. Clean, organized.
They even have Peets in here, but I still go to the Starbucks in the mall. Mainly because I forget about the Peets, and Starbucks is just more convenient.
Deli, Bakery, Sizzling Wok, Meat/Seafood, Floral, Cafe, etc.
Plenty of mall parking.
They also have a gas station and car wash at this location.
Open 7 days a week from 6am to 11pm.

Service - Good, the team is almost always happy and friendly.

Price - Above average, but worth it for what I buy.

Owner Comment - Congrats to Raley's success since 1935 with your 129+ locations, and more importantly, still keeping the company within the family.

This grocery store is pretty good.

First, the bakery does cakes that are better than average. Like, if you order a cake here, people at your kid's birthday party will ask where you got it because they want to get it for their kid's party. The bakery staff aren't usually that nice though, so ordering isn't a pleasant experience. They seem to expect that you know their cake ordering process without explaining it to you, and they have this binder of cake decor to pick from that is mostly kids character cakes. You can't really get a custom cake, you have to pick something from the binder, but that makes sense, it's not a cake shop. I just wish they were as nice as their cakes are yummy.

This is the only place around (that I know of) that has a salad bar. There is a salad bar and hot foods bar. It doesn't compare with like a Whole Foods bar, but it is pretty good. They also have some grab-n-go sandwiches and such, so you can easily put together a nice lunch for yourself here.

The grocery store itself is fine, but the organic produce is bad and also hard to find. There a section labeled organic, but then you can't find some things, and I think it might be scattered around. It doesn't tend to be fresh. The conventional produce seems ok.

Checkout seems smooth.

Great customer service. Pick up this birthday cake last minute. It was so thick that we had a hard time cutting it. Flavorful and fresh berries, want to try all the different flavors they have.

Friday, many shoppers, 1 checkstand, and one express line open. As usual at this location. Staff is great, but there are never more than 4 there at a time.

This is a great grocery store and the bakery is even better. They do Amazing custom cakes that not only taste great, but are fresh and decorated nice! Carla and team are awesome and they deliver on good pastries and handling of the store bakery!
