Trader Joe's

My favorite favorite Trader Joe’s in Orange County located off of 17th street and superior in Costa Mesa. This location has the nicest staff. They have a great selection and fully stocked shelves. They have a great flower selection. I run into all my friends kids moms here all the time because it’s the best Trader Joe’s!

We love Traders! This one in Costa Mesa was especially friendly and well stocked.

This is a much bigger Trader Joe's than most with a large parking lot than most. Seems to have a better selection as well. There are lots of check out stations so you can get in and out pretty fast.

Great location. Super size! Lots of variety and well stocked.

Very wonderful Trader Joe's location. Restrooms are nice, decent amount of parking, very large aisles with lots of merchandise. During non-COVID times this location actually used to do wine tasting demonstrations, never got to go to one, but was impressed that it was offered. Staff are friendly and helpful. Parking, entrance, aisles, restrooms, and counter are all accessible.

They have it all it’s always clean and the customer service is on point! Let’s not forget to mention wine tasting and recommendations 😋😋😋

Services always great. People in there are very polite and have a good knowledge of their inventory. For such a small store it has a good variety. The people shopping there seem to be a slightly upper crust and more affluent set, but they know a good deal because the food really doesn't cost anymore. If you know where to look and what to look for, you can really find some great deals.

Very good products, fruits and vegetables are very fresh. I love this store. I recommend this place.

Everyone knows fresh garlic is the best. But when you don’t have it on hand and just don’t have the time, a scoop of this Trader Joe’s minced garlic is potent and tasty. It gets the job done ✅ when you’re in a rush and it taste amazing. I love it in a sauté pan and it gets a little crispy.

Although on the smaller sized stores, they manage to keep everything well stocked despite being very busy. Lines move quick, the team members are always super helpful and nice.
The only gripe I can think of, the shopping carts. I think there are too many available, sometimes you cant use an aisle because it's blocked off. Limit the shopping carts will force people to get baskets and eliminate the cart issue.

Always enjoy going to Trader Joe's. The store is always clean, the employees are genuinely glad to be there and they are kind, helpful and respectful. The produce is fresh, their floral selection is just spectacular and the shelves are well stocked.
A real joy to shop there.🌺

As per brand, they maintain a very mellow positive vibe. This location is particularly noted for daily wine tastings and a knowledgeable staff that will recommend wine pairings. In addition, this is a store with many gems waiting to be uncovered, such as quality dairy and eggs and many quality finds at low price. For example, they have a Dijon mustard that presents with all the flavor of a popular brand but with a smoother consistency at half the price. I always find quality items to augment my culinary skills in preparing meals. The only drawback is that sometimes you get hooked on a product, and then it is discontinued.

Trader Joe’s is my all time favorite like many other people. Always on the lookout for new items so I can try them. But I always come for the many varied selection on their health and beauty items to my cleaning supplies and bread and fruits and organic produce.

Wonderful selection of healthy foods and beverages. Well stocked and very clean. Original and tasty items. Wonderful produce and plant selection.

The staff is very knowledgeable and friendly! Great value and low prices appreciate it with today's economy. Thank you!!
😉👍🏼

The best place. But don't get rid of alot of good items

This is a beautiful well stocked Trader Joe's.
When I lived in Costa Mesa this was my place to go. I love the wine selection and all of the imported specialty food items that you can't find anywhere else. The store is immaculately clean and the staff are so nice and helpful.
You can also buy fresh vegetables and delicious meat and cheese. If you want fresh flowers you can get those as well.
There is something here for everyone.

They have great food and great options. You know what the best part was? My daughter cut her finger and really needed a bandaid. I went to the culinary counter and with no questions asked, ran to get me a band-aid. Plus, the band-aid was blue, her favorite color! Life saving AND efficiently delicious all in one stop.

Love there Sour Cream and Onion Corn Puffs. They run out a lot. But there worth the wait.

I really can't express how terrible Vons, Albertsons, and Safeway are. They serve expensive overpriced heavily processed food. Trader Joe's has good wine for 3 dollars a bottle and I feel like this describes their store mentality well. Desirable, cheap, quality food that always tastes good. They don't spend money on stupid ads or sell brand names but I think that works in their favor. For example today a dozen eggs at Safeway cost 5 dollars. At trader Joe's? 2.50

Always great! I love their Electric Buzz coffee! So good! And their Non-alcoholic beer! It tastes just like regular beer without the buzz!
I love the taste of beer, but I hate getting buzzed or drunk. So this stuff is perfect! It tastes so good with a freshly BBQ'd steak! Yum!
And then there's the Dark Russet potato chips! O!M!G! They are SO good! Enjoy!

Well... the Electric Buzz code is gone. The Dark Russet Potato chips are gone! Never to return!
This is the only thing I don't like about Trader Joe's! They are always discontinuing stuff! It sucks! But, it's still a great place. And they still have the beer. Thank gawd! And the staff is always amazing! Great people work at them all.
