The customer service was excellent and the Seafood was very fresh. Prices are higher then other places but for seafood and meats the quality is exceptional. Bought the fresh swordfish at 39.00 a pound.

Fantastic selection of quality pre-made cold and hot food choices, as well as custom made-to-order sandwiches, my favorite lunch destination when I work in the area.

Excellent place! First time in and we had a wonderful time! All the food and salad bars were clean and fresh looking. Coco did explain to us that the chef had went to lunch, but the lobster sliders and Mezze plate were worth the wait! They even had pink pineapples!

Love this Gelson's. Nice staff, easy parking. I've been a loyal sprouts customer for years now. Always preferred it to Whole Foods for its health-conscious food selection. But I've been liking Gelson's even more lately! They have certain items sprouts doesn't carry that I love.
