3.5 stars. This should be a nicer HEB than the more popular and organic/healthier Market Street one because it’s newer and in Sterling Ridge but I was only averagely impressed overall. First off I must say Christine in the Boarshead deli was very professional and knew what a .5 slice meant(very very thin but in one piece). She said that was a common request from their customers. She also sliced my other two items perfectly and put the appropriate papers between. Five stars for her!!! The vegetable section was large but was out of several veggies I wanted. The blueberries were a great buy at $ 4.44 for 18 oz except that the cashier rung them up much higher along with at least 2 other items I caught. The cashier was very friendly and had no attitude. She just said they’re not notified all the time on every sale item and adjusted the prices. I had my Unilocal picture of the blueberries as proof but didn’t need to show her. I still only rate this HEB meat section 3.5 stars. Not as impressed with the packaging and selection compared to HEB Market Street. The rest of the store is ok but the flow of food products is not good. The paper towels were not in the actual aisle that the signed said. Overall another decent experience but I see room for improvement. Unilocal Review #354

My family loves this HEB. Great service and kid friendly. Good specials and my dogs like the food too(go figure).

Excellent selection. You want it, you got it. And in 10 different varieties. It’s probably one of the coolest stores I’ve been in so far. Oh and I got gas for 2.40 a gallon.

I love this grocery store. Great produce. Wonderful samples to try and recipes to go with. I love coming during the weekend and getting a great recipe idea and trying some new wines as well. You can’t beat the HEB brand on quality.(Try the chipotle cheddar cheese slices on hamburgers; you won’t regret it!) My only bad experience happened recently. I called ahead to see if they had flu shots and was told to come on in that they had them in stock. I arrive only to find out that I would have to come back two hours later because they failed to tell me that they only do it at certain times. Went across the street to Kroger and had my shot in less than 10 minutes. This is the first time that HEB has ever failed me on the customer service front.

I love this HEB location — less crowded. It’s annoying that they don’t carry a few items I like so I have to go to Kroger just to pick up a couple things — that’s the reason for my 4 instead of 5 star rating.

We visit a lot of establishments to acquire our food. Being high raw vegans, our family consumes mostly fresh fruits and veggies and quality is just as important as price to us. We travel a lot through the Houston area and have visited countless HEB locations including Kirby, both Katy locations, The Woodlands HEB(central market) and Sawdust location, 249 Cypress, Westhimer(both locations) and many more. As you can see, we are like HEB-holics, as this is our favorite grocery store and we frequent many locations often but this location is by far our favorite. What we like about this location? They have likely one of the largest organic food selections out of all the HEB’s that I listed above, fresh squeezed(unpasteurized) fruit juices and a very well stocked bulk section offering dates, cashews, quinoa, chia seeds(white and black), raw almonds and much more. I would rate them a five if we could somehow do all of our shopping there but that would be almost impossible. Their food quality is great and their prices are very good as well. We also love how HEB does so much for the local communities around the whole city of Houston. They are one of the few if not the only store that we have seem do so many charity, educational, art and sustainability events around the city. So when you shop there, you are also supporting those causes. If you live in the area make sure to check out this location, you wont be disappointed.

Well just like my review of the Summerwood HEB location, I have to say that while I absolutely loathe going to the grocery store, HEB is by far the best grocery store I’ve been to in the Houston area. It always has a wide variety of items(cutting down on the need to visit several stores just to purchase the items that I want) and just recently I was able to find a fresh organic turkey 2 days before Thanksgiving at the Kuykendahl HEB location. Does that happen at other stores? I have no idea, but they had quite the selection. As usual the fact that HEB has its employees at stations and on speakers is quite annoying for someone who hates the chaos associated with grocery shopping, but going late at night typically solves that problem. Parking is never a problem and the staff is typically pleasant — even if the same can’t always be said for the customers.

This is my favorite grocery store in the area(other competitors include: Kroger, Walmart, Randalls) and I go here quite frequently with my wife… to keep her company and eat up all the free samples. First, it is clean and well stocked. The produce section, meat counter, seafood counter and deli meats counter are all above average with a good selection. The bakery is average but still very acceptable. I also like the HEB promotions where you buy one item and get a basket load of items free… assuming you can find them all… sometimes it is like a scavenger hunt to find all the items on the long, yellow list they give you. I have never bought anything from the pre-prepared food section but they have quite a selection. I am always amazed that they can have so much variety of one type of item… take a look at all the BBQ sauces… there must be 200 brands/types…same for olive oil… or salad dressing(even more). Besides enjoying sampling the food from the cooking station, we have actually came away with recipes we have used at home and enjoyed. This location also has a Wells Fargo bank, a RediClinic, a Pharmacy, and some type of ticket booth were you can buy tickets to everything. Call me odd, but I like going to the grocery store… and this is my favorite.

and OHWOW in the bakery they have a dessert called a «coffee cup.» it is a cup made entirely out of chocolate filled with coffee flavoured mousse with some chocolate cake in the bottom — I’ve been threatening myself with them since my first visit to this store nearly two years ago… This is one of the single most decadent, rich, delectable things I’ve ever put into my mouth… the cake was dry and not very chocolaty not cheap at almost $ 5 for the pastry but good grief! you want to indulge…
