Diablo Foods

Staying at an airbnb down the road. Vacation food shopping always sucks because you can't ever use it all before you go....unless you boutique shop and this place was perfect for that! Did I spend $12.99 on Butter...yeah I sure did and it's the best thirteen dollars I've ever spent!!! So many treats I will probably bag up and take home in my suitcase! We bought 1/2 lb of ocean farmed Salmon... reddest radishes, tasty dolmas and so much more! Everything was fresh, organic, and the staff were ridiculously ready to help.

I love this place, from the deli/meats, hot foods, fruits & vegetables, and all other grocery options of unique and common items. I love walking through the store, a smaller store, but it feels great walking the aisles and window shopping. Cashiers are always friendly, and usually pleasant to converse with.
The only issue for me is sometimes the price of common items may be more than a chain market, but I select smartly.

This is my drive by walk in after therapy every week. It's also my post therapy therapy. This store is so clean; the team here is so friendly; it don't feel like you're in Lafayette. It feels more like Berkshires back home. This is the only place I buy tuna salad and chicken salad from and make sure to get a whole knife fork and spoon for my drive back across the bridge. Wine options are unlimited; good stuff. See y'all next week.

The Nordstrom equivalent of grocery shopping: very professional and friendly employees, an organized and well-stocked store with many unique items, excellent meat and cheese selections.

I go there for their butcher. Excellent meat.You can also order veal bones for Demi Glace. They also dry age beef themselves. The short ribs are amazing.

I dont give five stars often. Only when well deserved.
A local store full of high quality foods. A great sandwhich bar and excellent prepared food. Impressive meat display. Very nice produce section. I make an effort to stop there everytime I'm in the area. They are a couple of minutes off the Hwy 24 exit for Lafyette. Parking is easy and service is excellent. A real local Gem. You might want to consider stopping there if you travel past Lafayette for work or pleasure... a less hectic shady grocery shopping experience. There a number of other businesses in the same complex. Including a CVS drug store and a Trader Joe's. I wish I lived closer I'd do most of my grocery shopping here. Perhaps I will edit and include pictures at a later date. Trust me. A very pleasant shopping experience 3 minutes off Hwy 24 in Lafyette.

Very good sandwiches 🥪 but I think they should have a bathroom for coustermers so we don't have to stop and run over to CVS to use it .

Nice selection of cheeses and other items. Lots of local options. Just found their deli and am so excited about the gluten aware items.

Great local store with most of what I need. Parking is easy and staff is super friendly.

I wish that my “home” store was as good as Diablo Foods! Everything they have is off the highest quality, but where they truly excel is their customer service. Whether you’re at the meat counter, deli, produce or calling in with a question, they go above and beyond to help. Worth the drive from Alamo. Our Lunardi’s market in Danville could learn a lot from them!

One of my fav store in bay area. The have very good quality products and the staff is amazing.

Best grocer I've encountered in the Lamorinda area. Staff is super helpful. The meat counter is to die for!

Diablo Foods is my first choice for properly prepared meats. My rib eye shows their quality. It is heavy and has very little "juice" which tells me that it was dry-aged before it was cut.* This is the best way to offer beef in the butcher shop and also the most expensive for the butcher. I will leave it out all day to rest from the fridge. Salt, pepper. Super hot grill. Three minutes a side.

* "Juicy" beef that you find in the supermarket is not desirable and "wet aging" is just a fancy term for letting it rot in the bag while retaining the water weight for profit and then charging more for the process.

Love this privately owned, incredibly well-stocked grocery. Extensive butcher's department, lovely flowers, fantastic variety of baked goods, fresh sushi, excellent cheeses...it can be a little pricey for pantry staples, but having all of your needs under one, locally owned roof makes it worthwhile!

This is hands down the best grocery store. They have a parking attendant to keep the parking lot moving, they have staff on hand to help you find what you're looking for. And they even insisted on helping me out with my groceries...well mostly wine and salad dressing.

The nicest people...always so helpful. The produce is always fresh and the meat/poultry dept is top notch. Highly recommend Diabo Foods. The parking can be tight, but be patient. You'll get a spot.

The store is the "cream of the crop" can't get any better
Also excellent staff

This review is for the Sushi. I first discovered the Sushi at Diablo Foods a few years ago. It’s freshly made daily by the Canaan Company. They also have fresh wasabi. I highly recommend the Sushi from Diablo Foods.

Best produce in Lafayette. They also have a deli that is INCREDIBLY good. Great store that holds it's own no problem even though it's wedged between Whole Foods and Trader Joe's. It's truly better then both for quality and fine options. High prices but you get what you pay for here, high quality.

Simply the best groceries in the East Bay. The experience is always top notch. The meat and Deli is where this place shines. Best cuts and filets, delicious salads and spreads and sandos. It's not cheap but nothing good ever is.
