Review Raley's - Oakdale

A lot of unusual gourmet items, so that's good. I shop in the afternoon and at night. Prefer night: less people and more nice, real people. Good prices on sale items. Watch your dates.

Food was good if uninspired. Counter service food court. Prices ok. Higher than most fast food but no place else to go unless you bring your own. Rather noisy & crowded. Staff was friendly, efficient & helpful.

I always shop across the street at Save -Mart for the friendlier employees and better prices. Sure it's always busy but that's how great they are. I just missed their closing time this evening and had to go to Raley's. There's a reason it's like a ghost town in this store, always rude customer service and incredible high prices. Thankfully I only had to purchased a few over priced items. Upon time to check out and there's only one register open but with no one shopping there it shouldn't be a problem, but it was. I waited and waited then said, "Hello" but no response. No one around. I don't usually pay high prices just to do their job but I got tired of waiting and went to self check out, which ALWAYS has issues. When I started to scan some 16 year old came up and said, "Oh I didn't know you were here". I told her I yelled hello twice but of course she didn't hear me. She was "busy" she said. I started doing their job and of course I kept getting the wrong prices, I know Raley's depends on customers not realizing they're being over priced but I caught it. She was now standing in eye sight talking away with a bag boy as I asked, "excuse me" twice to no avail. I then said a little louder that I needed help and she was sooooo distraught that she had to stop talking/flirting to help me. She pushed some buttons and said, "You're good to go" and went back to flirting. I asked, 'What do you mean"? and explained it's still showing the wrong price. She let out a heavy sigh, walked alllllll the way over ten feet, hit some buttons again and said, 'Now, you're good to go'. AGAIN I said, "No I'm not because it's still showing the wrong price". I could see her rolling her eyes and again sighed. She called someone and had to get the right price, so third time is a charm I guess. When the right price came up and for some reason I said, "Thank you", but no response. No sorry, no good to help, not even you're welcome for destroying my night, nothing. Again there's a reason this store is always so quiet and puzzles me they remain open. Nothing will change, I know people don't want to work these missed up days in our country and those that do put little or no effort because businesses can't afford to lose employees but can they also afford to lose customers?

Definitely this is a good place to buy some snacks before your trip to Yosemite. The cappuccino here is delicious.

It's a sad thing, when one goes to the deli, gets hot food, then told I have to use the check out in the front, when the deli register is right there, was told it's only for the deli dept, yet here I'm buying hot food from the deli, people need to figure out, that good customer service is how they make a living.

Good selection was good, self check out was a mess. Why can’t I bag things as I go?

I wanna thank shantel from the bakery for making my birthday cake beautiful. "I added the flowers" Thank you again :)

Deli staff were nice and very helpful .
