Nugget Markets

I don’t shop here often and it is not my favorite store.
However this place have good fresh fruit and vegetable. Price is very high but quality is always there.
Today it is my favorite store. They have so good straberry I love love it.
They taste so good, it actually taste like it, smell like real strawberry, so sweet.
I got 2 but going to get more tomorrow. Price is high $ 4.99 each but I will skip meal just to have them.

Have some unique items here but can be pretty pricey. It’s a Nugget, though, so it’s not unexpected. This has the best salad bar in the area and of the other ones, in my opinion – the kale caesar salad is excellent! The juice bar is also good, but VERY expensive.
Customer service is always great, too, but I rarely buy my groceries here.
Tip: The hot food bar goes on half price after 7! most of the good stuff is gone, but you can’t really say no to cheap stuff. :)

Omg, u can’t find regular bread here. I looked and looked. Well, at least their bakeries are the bomb! Macarons, not macaroons!!! Always get birthday cakes here for myself because I am lonely. Ettore’s.

Nugget is just awesome. The customer service is second to none. They have main brand items and small company items as well. I like being able to buy Prego but maybe I want to try some local brand and bam, there it is. They have a great bakery and good pre-​made food as well. The wine selection is as close to Total Wine as you can get in a grocery store. I like that the store is super clean and well stocked. I stopped in on New Years Eve and they had everything I needed stocked.
I’m not sure on prices as they seem high in some areas but low or competitive in others.

I love this place! Great customer service, delicious desserts, fantastic food! Fantastic bakery & coffee/​juice bar! I love the customer service!

My happy place, somewhere between Safeway and Whole Foods, is Nugget Markets. I especially love their bakery and café where coffee, specialty juices, and blended drinks are whipped up.
They have just about everything you can think of for a grocery store and a little extra. You can find a great selection of cheese (and someone to talk you through it), über health-​nut items and all sorts of vitamins and supplements, aisles of wine and beer, and a section for prepackaged snacks. Their freezer section also boasts common frozen food products as well as fancy organic ice cream and gelato.
Their hot food items range from French toast and eggs in the morning and rice, chicken, and soup during lunch. You can also order pizza and sandwiches for take-​out or pick-​up packaged salads or sushi rolls.
So glad they’re close to home.

I highly recommend the Nugget bakery for all of your special occasion needs. They exceeded our expectations on our son’s birthday cake – it looked even better than the picture we provided as a sample. The birthday cake literally came to life thanks to the skilled and detailed hands of the bakers. Our family and friends were in awe, and the birthday boy thought it was the best birthday cake ever. I never have to worry about the quality of their work, the freshness or the taste. The bakery always provides excellent customer service, and Richard is always a pleasure to work with.

It’s been a while since I’ve visited the Elk Grove location and I was pretty sad to see how much the service has changed over the last few months, lots of new Staff at the coffee bar and not as peppy or friendly. The counters were dirty with sugar, and creamer all over the counter and trash. They are consistently out of water, i kindly asked if they would refill the tank and the snobby girl said she would in a minute, my kids kept asking for water and she completely disregarded them and continued to do what she was doing i was annoyed by this. The staff was backed up on drink orders so it took quite a while to get my drink. I may jusy have to drive a few miles further to go to the Nugget in Greenhaven where ths gals are friendly and always upbeat. They seems alot more organized.

I stopped here on my way through town because I was looking for some fresh produce for me and for my pets. Being from out of town I’d never been in a Nugget Market before and was pleased by the variety of both popular brand products as well as healthy, organic, made-​in-​house foods etc. The store was clean and well organized, and I was expecting to give it four or five stars, but two things went dismally wrong for me. First, I really wanted some sugar snap or snow peas and I could not for the life of me find any in their produce department. Second was the washed baby carrots (Bunny brand) that I had bought for my guinea pigs turned out to contain one or more carrots that had largely turned to carrot-​slush. The cold orange slime coated all the carrots in the bag and though I was grateful I was only feeding them to my pets and hadn’t bought them because I personally wanted to eat them, I was shocked to have gotten such a bad item from such a nice looking grocery store.
I’m sure if I lived in the area I’d give them another chance but as it is my one visit was not enjoyable and I am not sure when I’ll be back in town to give them another try. Sorry, Nugget Market. :(

Just left nugget and I must say the hot food bar looked AMAZING! It was truly the food bar that I am used to seeing. Everything looked fresh and I think I saw the manager there personally checking the food and making sure everything looked tidy! I got my usual yellow rice and chicken masala — it was tasty!
I was picking up cupcakes for my birthday and I only needed six, I picked up a package of pre-​packed cupcakes that were all yellow cake with chocolate icing, took them to the bakery and asked if they could give me a combination of yellow cupcakes with chocolate frosting iand chocolate cupcakes with chocolate frosting. I really didn’t think they would say yes however the gentleman behind the bakery counter smiled and said of course I can do that for you! I was pleasantly surprised.
Between my awesome lunch and the excellent customer service, Nugget contributed to an awesome birthday!

Just had a Nugget chocolate cream pie. The crust was very salty and did not have a strong chocolate flavor. For nearly $ 15.00, it was extremely disappointing. I will not buy another Nugget pie again. No stars.
Service was adequate. The staff is usually friendly and helpful. 4 stars.
Fantastic selection of cheeses. 5 stars.
Pizza and sandwiches are a bit overpriced, but usually taste good and are well made. 3 stars.
As you can see, overall I’d give the store a three rating.

This is my pizza spot! pizza by the slice or baked to order is fantastic!!! The crust is thin and crisp. It has a nice flavor. A whole pizza takes about 15 minutes and costs about $ 15. They toss the dough in the store and the staff working the counter are friendly and don’t mind special orders.
On the whole the market is great for unique and specialty items. Great coffee selection. My holdback on the 5^th star are the prices.

If you were to ask me what my favorite time of the year was I would tell you it’s summertime. This is when farmers markets as well as produce departments come alive with fresh locally grown produce. My favorite summertime fruits are white nectarines and black watermelon. The first time I tried black watermelon was about 3 years ago. Not only was It the sweetest tasting melon I had eaten but also locally grown in West Sacramento.
Now let me get back to the subject of black watermelons. This week I saw Nuggets Markets have black watermelon on sale for 4.99 each! Boy, was I «HAPPY». I waited all year for these beauties. So you know what I did next? You guessed right! Off we went to the store .
The produce department looked amazing! Fruits and vegetables stacked neatly on the wall forming a picturesque portrait. This is very unique as well as «BEAUTIFUL».
As we walked around the store, their scrumptious desserts in the bakery caught our attention. I know where I am going to buy my cakes from now on! They are the only store I know that carry Ettore’s desserts. Ettore’s European Bakery is well known in the Sacramento area to have the best desserts around.
Their wine department was huge. Not only do they have a large wine inventory, but also have a knowledgeable wine expert on hand for any questions you might have. The seafood department looked amazing too with rows and rows of seafood neatly stacked on ice.
We enjoy coming here because they offer us so many different food options.
From a danish in the morning with your cup of coffee, or a homemade pizza made just for you, to Chinese food for dinner from their deli. This store is like the Mercedes of the grocery chains and have our highest recommendation! We will definitely be back!
Being mesmerized with all of their wonderful departments, I almost forgot what I had originally come for. Not a chance! My Black Watermelon!

The nugget is the best market in Sacramento !! I can honestly say that I have never been disappointed with this place! Their products are amazing !! The food is very good too. This place is a complete ⁵⁄₅!
Try their pizza, their açai bowls are neat and their juice bar is on point !!

Great service:) relaxing environment:) great food quality:) sooo many good experiences, here are the highlights:
* personal contact after writing a review. Got a phone call in response to one and custom letters for two other feedback cards
* didn’t like the almond paste in one croissant I purchased, was provided instructions on how to order ahead to have the type tht I enjoy and given a $ 5 gift card to replace it
* always someone to walk me to the car esp important being a single woman esp at night time
* the juice bar will make any juice that you like if you buy the ingredients prior to juicing they will customize and wash them for you
* the cheese specialist is out of this world always knowledgeable on the types of cheeses and can provide suggestions
* they walk you to help you look for anything you cant find
* amazing selection of healthy snacks that are both organic and nongmo
* amazing selection of ice creams including milk alternatives
* amazing selections of gluten free breads
I can go on and on… Things to watch out for that can get expensive:
Organic produce (shop smart and buy stuff on sale)
Perfumes and soaps (they care a lot about quality so you can easily pay more for a healthy alternative)
Fresh meats (organic options run a bit high but non gmo farm fresh may be the way to go instead)

Felt compelled to write a review for this location even though I’ve already written one for Davis because of the wonderful service! Seriously, I have to give it to the Nugget management for ensuring consistency throughout each store.
Got the classic acai bowl, loved it! It’s a must try for anyone visiting their fruit bar. Everything else looks delicious too, and they sell Ettore’s cakes! The prices, of course, will be more expensive compared to your typical Safeway or other grocery stores. BUT at least you can rest assure that you’ll be putting fresh quality food into your belliesssss!

This is more than a grocery store… but let me first tackle the «grocery» part. Yes, they are bit pricey for everyday shopping, but if you want fresh, beautiful produce for a special meal, this is the place. Look for «STOP SIGN SAVINGS» because these sale items are usually really cheap, sometimes far cheaper than a normal grocery store. And if you’re looking for a rare item, such as a certain sea salt or truffle oil, Nugget is bound to have it!
Ok, on to the specialty areas. The seafood selection is fresh and you can place an order a day or two before for a fresh catch of your liking. I did this, ordered Chiliean Sea Bass for a birthday dinner. Nugget placed the order and it was delivered in time.
The guys that work the cheese bar area are aficionados! They are more than happy to recommend cheeses to place on a pizza or on your bbq for grilling. And they aren’t pushy for you to try or buy certain cheeses. They just passionately talk about different cheeses that might suit your taste buds. They have introduced me into a world of cheeses that I would normally have never known to exist. I’m not sure if this is a good or bad thing.
The sandwich deli is one of my favorite «Take Out» joints. I always order the Rosemary Flank Sandwich, it’s made on Ciabatta bread, but I ask for french bread instead. They place your sandwich in the fire wood burning stove, scrumptious! Also, if you ask the sandwich maker, there are off-​menu sandwiches — one is the firecracker. And true to its name, it’ll explode with spice in your mouth on the first bite.
Lastly, if you arrive on a cold wintry morning… order a cup of hot chocolate at the coffee/​juice bar, it’s worth every calorie.

This is the fanciest grocery store in town. With fanciness, comes pricey groceries! This is the only reason I am docking a star, I feel like my bank account cries whenever I buy anything here. But, I must say this grocery store is wonderful to walk through and look at all the unique items they have.
I like the assortment of gluten-​free, low-​carb items for us dieters. My favorite items to buy here are the in-​house made guacamole, any of the Ettore cakes and their different brands of chocolate. I like that they have slices of the Ettore cakes so I can basically sample a variety of desserts.
I also have yet to meet an unhappy staff member. I think they only hire people who genuinely want to work for the company. I definitely can find help from anyone who works there easily.
It’s nice to change it up and come here for groceries every once in awhile. I would frequent this place more often if the prices weren’t so expensive.

Surprised I haven’t reviewed this store yet!
We had to drop in earlier this morning for some items that the previous grocery store was out of. We normally don’t come here as this is the Cadillac of all grocery stores. It can get very pricey here if you shop here all the time.
This company is well known for taking good care of their employees which does explain why that reflects upon having great customer service. Makes good sense to boost morale then it reflects in their work. I have always had amazing service here.
I normally would drop in for the bakery department bc I know they carry desserts from Ettore’s which is very well known throughout Sacramento. Especially if I need it for a special occasion like for a family member’s birthday or graduation or anniversary or wedding reception or baby shower. We even got to try their champagne cake bc a coworker’s sister is the bakery manager there. She ordered it through her specifically. It was actually very tasty.
I would not hesitate to go back and you shouldn’t too!

This grocery store has the friendliest employees! First off, they’re easy to find. In most stores, there only seems to be workers around when you don’t want to be bothered… then when you finally need to find something, there’s no workers in sight. But at Nugget, there’s always someone around the corner restocking or cleaning, and they are all knowledgable! They’ll even walk you across the store just to show you exactly where you need to find something. At other stores, they’ll just tell you the aisle number and wish you luck.
They have a wide selection for hot food too, just in case you’re in a rush and looking for healthy (or unhealthy) food to-​go. They charge by the pound, and you just choose what to put in your takeout box!
The bakery and café section is really enticing too — it pulls you in with great smells and a huge menu overhead once you walk inside Nugget. Their smoothies and drinks include fresh fruit. I just want to try everything!
And lastly, you never have to wait more than 5 minutes to get to the front of a checkout line. They have plenty of registers open, and if the lines get long, they’ll open more up.
