They charged me with an extra item and sold me old bakery when I almost got poisoned…

I have been in Oasis and I was trying to pay for my stuff at the cashier’s counter and there were two cashiers. One of them was serving other customer and when I came to the second cashier, he was unbelievably rude telling me that that counter is closed. They gotta be respectful and polite with their customers. I will never step into this store with rude people.

My experience here is meet with here or there. Not great service not all that bad of service. I love the convenience of the location its not far from where i live so i was happy to see that it was being placed there and the fact that i work late and it is occasionally(sometimes it is and sometimes its not) open 24hrs. Now I drink coffee and the biggest necessary i have next to the coffee is the milk and i bought a particular kind of milk(almond milk with fiber and protine) for weeks sometimes 2x in a week. I go in to buy it and it was not in stock anymore. I asked someone about it and didnt have an answer for me and walked away. I love the location, i love the hours when they are open. Im not a fan of rude service or being ignored as im standing at the counter. Or im there and they switch cashiers while im standing there being rung up(please ring me up cash me out before you starting talking to each other and have long conversations). My wife went in and asked for ham at the deli section. Waited awhile for someone to help her only to be given a dissgusted look when she asked for ham and followed with in the most disgusting response«we dont serve pork» but when i went in maybe hours or a day later they have Boars Head ham in the display window. If you live in the area and speak the language you are in luck, if you live in the area and dont speak the language you can chance the service. Saving grace location and hours

This place has 2 saving graces 1) its close so i dont have to empty my gas tank looking for parking 2) they have a pretty good selection of tea The set up is terrible. Why the hot food bar is so close to the entrance is beyond me. I understand that the food is imported but not everyone can read russian and there is barely a description. A pervious time i stupidly asked an employee what a particular item was only to be given that«this is not my department» look. The register set up is the worst thing of all. The conveyor belt doesnt work in most lanses. God forbide you dont know where to stand in line because the distance between the register and the beginning of the aisle is small(large winter jackets dont help either. one lady almost took down a whole display of fiber crackers). There are better places… sorry

I visited the Oasis today for the second time and have to agree with Sohail A. The people are very friendly but both times the place was almost empty and the hot food bar looked like it had not been touched all day(and it was 2PM in the afternoon). Some people here speak English but everyone tried to be helpful. I bought Arizona Ice Tea for a good price and thought the dried fruits and nuts looked fresh and fairly priced. The store is set up nicely and well lit. So A-OK but with reservations.

I wanted to like this place — I really did. It’s the only grocery store in the area and it has several different sections — meats, cheeses, fish, an entire room for fruits, salad bar, hot foods bar, and other goods. On the surface this place looks modern and wonderful. They have some rude staff though who ring up food, throw it in a bag and walk away. They also have some very friendly staff. Sometimes they also have NOSTAFF! About half the times i’ve been here I had to toss my food back because the lone clerk had wandered off! This usually happens during the evening and if no one shows up for 5 minutes I just toss the food back and leave. It’s a little ridiculous. There are other negatives. I see the same exact fish staring back at me from behind the fish counter every time I go here. I’ve gotten food from the salad bar that went absolutely rancid after two days in the fridge. I’ve gotten chicken from the butchers and it was clearly spoiled. In addition, the prices vary widely so watch out — one box of strawberries reads $ 2.50 and another box next to it in the same pile reads $ 4.50
