Been to this Whole Foods several times. They used to have a much better beer selection back in the day but that game has changed since craft beer really started its appearance in 2009. Went today for an assortment of salads and grabbed 2 types of maraschino cherries. I’m done spending $2.99 on the cheap stuff. Life is too short.

Good selection of beef, sometimes has beef or veal liver

The WFM never disappoints and that the case here with this very popular store in the middle of of a very successful Long Island neighborhood. The shopping plaza where the store is at directly across the highway from Americana Manhasset high end mall. This store is very nice. If you are in for organic shopping, come on in and enjoy! You will like your experience here! Highly recommend this place!

Bought expensive fish. It was wrapped by the woman behind the counter. Took it home and put it in the refrigerator. Next day took it out and it smelled up the whole house. The cat fainted. They gave me my money back but that is a bad health issue. Wont go back ever.

Each visit I've made to this Whole Foods has been an unmitigated nightmare. The people who come to shop here are extremely rude, have no common decency, will bump into you pretending you're not there and have absolutely no regard for personal space during a global pandemic. On my most recent visit on 02/06, I observed a manager walking around the crowded store with no mask on talking on the phone. This is despite a mask mandate in NYS. But who cares about protecting yourself, your staff and customers, amirite? The best part was probably when a fire alarm started going off, and no one from the staff offered an explanation on whether there was an actual emergency taking place. The alarm blared the entire time I waited on line during checkout. Waiting on line at this Whole Foods requires being sardined in a narrow "hallway" while the other customers will continuously bump you with their shopping carts. If you'd like to experience one of the circles Dante described, look no further than this WF!

The lilies here are wonderfully fragrant and a good deal at $10 a bunch. I also love the 365 lime frozen fruit bars. I've shopped here a few times after having lunch and shopping across the street at the Americana. The associates here are very helpful. Not too crowded because they make you wait outside until some people leave. The only thing is, they should open more Whole Foods in Long Island. I heard the Best Market in Great Neck on Great Neck Road will close, so that is a perfect location for a Whole Foods!

Worst Whole Foods I've ever been to, and I shop at the Centre St location in Jamaica Plain, MA sometimes. Too small, too congested, poorly laid out, poor selection. This is just not a good representation of Whole Foods.

It's a half hour drive to this Whole Foods from Queens but worth it during the pandemic- 5 minute wait max compared to "I won't wait on line with 30 people" on 57th and third in Manhattan. Plentiful free parking lot right in front. This Whole Foods is, oddly, smaller than the ones I've been to in Manhattan and doesn't have the prepared food selection of the one in Bryant Park, but generally suffices. Clean store, organic selection, and discounts for Prime members. Bring your own bags and get a refund while doing your part to save the planet.

Ive been shopping at W F for several years. Generally, good quality food. Lately, they are taking advantage of shoppers by drastically rising their prices each time I go shopping. Im going to Trader Joes. MUCH fairer pricing. For example, a can of tuna is now $2.99. Was always $2.19 or so. Many other items raised each time I visit.

I came in this evening around 5 to pick up a couple of items. I appreciated that they controlled the amount of people coming in. I walked in and picked up one item and about to pick another when I saw that there was one very long line for checkout. Most had a full shopping cart of items. There were only a few cashiers. I approached the woman who was sending shoppers to the cashiers and asked her if there was an express line. She said no and said there was only one line. Needless to say, I walked out. I really wanted and needed these items, but could not wait. There really should be an express at all times. I am a fairly new Prime member and I was truly disappointed
While this location makes me feels a bit claustrophobic due to the pandemic, i happened to come in to get milk and some short ribs. I end up not getting the milk because today is 10/6 and all the mil on the dairy display expires in 10 days. I did get the beef short ribs which were $5.99 a pound. I noticed they had a poultry's ready clean and vacuum sealed for sale at $3.69 a pound, while that is to rich for my blood. I settled on going to shop rite and picking up chicken pieces for $.99 a pound. Now i have to say their poultry display at Whole foods is divine. Amazing butcher skills, beautifully set, all vacuum sealed, trimmed to perfection, no skin or bones, all ready for use. With that said i end up getting 3 packs of the beef short rib which will be amazing when i do them on my charcoal grill this weekend. What i dont like was the check out, it is unfortunate that even when they monitor the line, the line goes around the corner and there no choice for a self check out. The wait in the line was a bit slow since it was 1pm and i was shopping during my lunch break. As always the staff at the store is friendly and they answer all questions. Certainly this is not my choice location for food shopping.

loose service and customer service is garbage. I give my money to Trader Joes.

I went on a snacks and treats haul yesterday and there was a line with six feet indicators in the parking lot about 10 feet away from the entrance. Prior to entering the store, there are wipes available to wipe down the cart. There is a staff member guarding the entrance to monitor the number of people allowed in the store. The store really caters to the elderly and the disabled prior to regulars like me. Upon entry at the store, I notice that the store is pretty small compared to the ones in Bryant Park, Union Square and Columbus Circle. However, I was able to find what I needed overall. Masks are mandatory especially that social distancing was not possible. The hot/cold buffet line was closed for obvious reasons. There was staff constantly cleaning the freezer doors on the frozen food aisle. There was one line and there were indicators on where to stand to comply with social distancing. There was also a staff member assigning each customer to a cashier and inquiring if they are paying cash or credit. FYI if you have Amazon Prime you get 10% off some of the items. I'm glad there is an Whole Foods I can go to without relying on going into Manhattan to do some grocery shopping.

Dont go on a Sunday... other than that... it great!

I always found this place difficult to rate. So many great finds, but at such inflated prices. This week had an awesome sale on avocados and could grab a sprig of organic cilantro for $1.49, and can get gourmet cheeses and deli wares. But other stores have excellent gourmet deli and even more interesting selections. The supplement prices are just outright ridiculous. Whole Foods' selections are no longer unique enough to justify such high prices.
