Mollie Stone's

I decided to give the AFC sushi counter at Mollie Stone's another chance, and I was blown away by the improvements in quality and selection now available. I tend to be a self-proclaimed sushi snob, and I was definitely impressed with the freshness, quality, and beautiful craftsmanship of all their sushi rolls and platters. This time, I ordered:Chef's Choice platter- perfect if you're an indecisive eater like me, and want to try different items. They typically come with a diverse selection of sashimi and sushi rolls, which are seriously comparable to restaurant quality. My favorite rolls include the rainbow, caterpillar, done deal, dynamite rolls, and their salmon sashimi is always consistently fresh and high quality. Sushiritto- perfect if you're looking for a fully cooked option! This was delicious, and absolute stuffed with imitation crab and a generous selection of veggies and avocado. Definitely one of my best experiences with supermarket sushi in the Bay Area, and I'll definitely be back again!

The good: Mollie Stones has a very broad selection of items, including a lot of specialty items. If you're looking to stumble on a new treasure or looking for something hard to find, they are a good bet.The not as good: the flip side of their wide selection is that Mollie Stones does not always refresh their inventory - more than ones, I'll buy a box of something and after I get to my car I see the best by date was three months ago. Their prices are also high for the area - even compared to Whole Foods, Sigonas, Roberts, and other specialty stores.

The cute animal singing show is still there. Love that. Everything else is downhill. Veggies in sad shape. The Mollie Stones salsa was horrible and threw it out. The store is filled with the same self righteous unfriendly boomers of Palo Alto since the 80s.

Thank you to the manager at California Street Molly Stones who returned envelope with my mother's death certificates, which were in an unmarked postal envelope. He went above and beyond to hand deliver to my condo complex on his own time. This gentleman with a white beard came to gated door and asked a neighbor to find me because he did not have a phone number, just a unit number. I sincerely appreciate his kindness . Diane

I came here again today. I was going to get something today from the hot bar but the hot bar was not available on the weekend.I instead got a california roll which was very tasty.I also got a tub of their potato salad and a diet pepsi. I took it to go. Everything was tasty. I like the deli section . A wonderful store

I was running some errands in the area when I stumbled upon Mollie Stone's. I finished my appointment early so I decided to check this place out.The store is very well organized and has a great selection of products. I was craving for a snack so I got California roll (12 pcs) and a can of San Pellegrino sparkling drink. The sushi really hit the spot and the drink was quite refreshing. The market also has outdoor seating right by the parking lot. With excellent customer service and wonderful array of produce, this place is definitely worth a visit!

Terrible sandwich. Waited 20 mins and payed 13$ for an tuna melt...worst ever. Tuna is cold and cheese is solid I thought it's a melt wtf? This is why the community goes to the many many other options near by. Half ass sandwich. SMH

$18 mixed berry salad....that was discovered when we drove away to taste old with fermented strawberries....what a waste of money! Super disappointing for a mollie stones.

I love this place so much. It reminds me of supermarkets in the 1990s before everything became a dystopian capitalist death spiral and brings back the warmest fuzziest memories of hanging out with my grandma and going grocery shopping. My toddler loves the random singing vegetables. Great selection of dry goods and their deli looks good. I hope you never change!

Mollie Stone's is a very special supermarket. It is a community-oriented, cozy, personable supermarket, where enthusiasm for making people feel good is the store's mission. There were rows upon rows and stacks upon stacks of fresh local organic produce (you name it, they have it), as well as an impressive array of meats, seafoods, dairy, dried goods, etc. There's a whole section for international "world foods" and also for Kosher foods. There are plenty of baked goods and an extensive hot food and soup bar and prepared food, etc. You can even fill up your own bottle of freshly squeezed orange juice (there's a machine that lets you witness oranges turn into juice before your very eyes) - I bought a bottle, it was super refreshing! It has literally everything - all the usual things a grocery store would have. It also sells its own brand of certain products, such as Mollie Stone's own brand of jams (e.g black raspberry, strawberry, peace), preserved fruits (e.g. Bartlett pears, peach halves), and pickles (e.g. beets, cucumbers). They also have a large selection of beautiful, cute, and/or useful non-food items, including but not limited to: fancy soaps, tote bags, aprons (and for kids), kitchen appliances / towels / utensils / oven mitts, plates/pitchers/bowls, lunch boxes for kids, mugs, candles. It also sells items from other well-loved brands and stores, like cards from Papyrus, Hydroflasks, Peet's Coffee, Urban Remedy, Pressed Juicery, etc. Mollie Stone's is also huge. When I walked in, I had only walked through half of the store and was already thoroughly impressed with the variety of things they offered - just when I thought I had walked through the entire store, I looked further down and there was an entire other half of the store that I hadn't even entered! Another way it stands out from other supermarkets is its community feel - it felt cozier than most grocery stores. There was even a kid-friendly "show" by a "Mr. Goodchoice" who would sing classic songs like "Old McDonald had a farm" and advocate values like recycling and avoiding drugs and alcohol. Overall, Mollie Stone's is an an extraordinary supermarket with a cozy community feel - I would definitely recommend visiting and buying goods here!!!
