Costco Wholesale

I came by here to check it out, the place was clean and well run. The lines seems shorter, could just be the time I visited (Tuesday 14:00) floor layout seems the same as other Costco locations

I recently bought an ice maker after my previous one suddenly stopped working. I found one that was cheaper than the price of my old one, but I didn’t realize that the price on the shelf was not the price for that item and was charged at checkout a different price. I thought I could speak with someone at the customer service desk to resolve this, but I was completely surprised by the reaction I received. Henry, the manager, refused to even let me explain and shouted at me, accusing me of switching the price. He staunchly refused to honor the listed price, even when I pointed out the sign on the shelf. This experience was disappointing—it's not how you should treat your customers. Costco should emphasize proper training for management on how to handle customer concerns with respect and professionalism.

I had a very upsetting and humiliating experience at the Costco on Victory Blvd and Owensmouth, and it honestly made me question how members are being treated there. I am an Executive Member (black card), and I was shopping with my daughter when I went to check out. As I was putting my items on the conveyor belt, I could already feel the staff looking me up and down in a way that made me uncomfortable. After scanning my membership and ringing up all of my items, the cashier noticed the credit card I had in my hand and asked if it was mine. I told him it was my husband’s card. The cashier immediately told me I could not use it because the name was not mine. What made this situation frustrating is that I have shopped at this same Costco before and paid with that exact card without anyone ever questioning it. When I asked if this was a new policy, the cashier told me it has always been the rule and that other employees simply “weren’t doing their job.” By that point, all of my items had already been scanned and I was left standing there with my daughter while a line of customers watched the situation unfold. It was embarrassing and completely unnecessary. When I asked to speak with a manager, the cashier responded with, “He’s going to tell you the same thing.” The manager was conveniently already standing nearby and simply repeated the same line without showing any concern for how the situation had been handled. I understand stores have policies. That is not the issue. The issue is the way I was treated—watched, questioned, and then left standing there in front of everyone as if I had done something wrong. As a long-time Costco member with an Executive Membership, I expect professionalism and respect. Instead, I was made to feel judged and humiliated. Walking away from that experience, I honestly couldn’t help but wonder if I was being profiled. As a Hispanic woman, the way I was looked at and treated left a very bad impression. Costco should do better than that.

I stopped by this Costco on a Sunday evening because I had reservations at a restrauant in the Village. The Village is basically connected to Costco since they are right next to each other. My wife was shopping for dresses at the Village so I told her I'll go to Costco to get a soda. I went inside first to see if they had the skull Halloween candy bowl but they didn't. They like the Disney pirate ship and some decorations but not the bowl. I walked around the warehouse just if they had it elsewhere but they didn't. Costco was still busy and hour before they officially close so I just went outside to get my soda since that's where the food court is. I just got 1 cup so I can refill it and the price is unbeatable. The only issue is waiting in line with other people getting food. I was able to get my Pepsi and go back to my wife at the Village. Since she spent time going to different stores, I just keep going back to Costco to refill my cup. There a lot of parking at the parking structure here and it's free for the first hour or so.

Some everyday Costco brand item (Kirkland signature) have significant price changes in this Costco, for example this krilkland signature reduced-fat milk had over 50% price increase in only 2 weeks in the same Costco!

This Costco can get really busy but if you go early in the morning , I find that it is much more pleasant as the isles are clear and items are properly stacked. Which means lines are shorter too. However, I do notice this Costco is a little darker than the other Costco. Maybe they are trying to conserve energy, which is ok.

Today, 1/27/26 at 4:52 pm as I was checking out at the register, just buying vodka, the cashier (female with a face mask) gave me back my ID and Costco card and said “HERE BABY” and as I started putting my cards back in my wallet, she put my bottle of vodka that I just purchased and said “DON’T FORGET UPUR MEDICINE BABY”. I’ve never been so disrespected in my life like today at Costco. Nobody ever, including the medical specialist referred Vodka as my medicine. I don’t know if she’s a medical specialist or not, but for sure this is a huge insult to anyone by anyone, especially to a client at the store that sells alcohol by an employee who works at the register. I don’t know her name, but I’ve attached the receipt and if possible, I would like to request an investigation by Costco HR department.

Best returns service available! Super friendly staff , will take care of your every need with a smile. Food and clothing is affordable some really below expected prices. Great addition to the neighborhood And the food and snacks are great for the whole family! Love Costco pizza and an ice cold Pepsi! Highly recommend this location West Hills is a great community

What bad thing can you really say about Costco, other than lower your membership fee right, well it's worth a try! Haha Always come here for a couple things and before you know it you walk out with a cart full of stuff. Also you cannot beat the $1.50 for a hotdog and drink! Like come on! Service is always decent. Hate the long lines sometimes but it's worth it. Came to also grab a slice of pizza!

Staff has a TERRIBLE attitude problem and should learn to talk to customers better and be better overall at assisting guests instead of running around aimlessly in the front. Go to a different Costco this holiday season especially for large items. They would rather watch you struggle out the door than actually try and assist. Parking is also terrible, and even customers seem to outwardly project the overall attitude of this Costco-- chaotic and disorganized.

I love Costco honestly this location is whatever. The staff aren't NICE! The cashiers l have an attitude problem they barely say any words to you. They don't even offer boxes for your items. I honestly don't like coming to this location. I love Woodland Hills but I hate how rude the staff is here. I gone couple times and every time it's the same. Costco is known for nice environment and staff but this Costco doesn't have that!!

Costco got some plants today. - few Perfumes left Over , the service is always great here and the you get a bang for your buck , great value and versatile of items, honestly, I can come here every day and see new things. I love how they move things around so you can get a fresh look at something or they always have something new. I really love how they keep refresh so every time you walk in here you feel like you're saying something new.

This is one of the better Costco's when it comes to inventory and exclusives. We typically go to the Northridge one since it's more convenient for us but we occasionally come to this one to check out what new things they have. Was very happy to find that they had stock in the Afters Ice Cream Bars. Although they only had the Chocolate Ube Brownie flavor, it's the only location (that I've seen) that carries this brand! Hoping they have the Dubai chocolate flavor soon! They also carry Lee's coffee in the frozen section which is absolutely delicious! It's a great option for a quick on-the-go pour to start your day. Super strong just like Vietnamese coffee and so many ways to use it. Overall a great Costco! IG: @ammysalamii

Parking is a little insane, especially since you have to get it validated if you stay past 1.5 hours, but it's still better than the Garden Grove Costco. Lines were long on a Sunday afternoon and there wasn't anything new compared to the Orange County Costco selection except more hot tubs. Great gas lines. There was almost nobody there.

Costco continues to be my favorite shopping destination. Every visit is an experience filled with great finds, delicious food, and unbeatable value. The pizza from the food court is always a highlight. It is cheesy, flavorful, and served hot with a perfect crust. I never leave without treating myself to a chocolate and vanilla twist yogurt. It is creamy, rich, and incredibly satisfying after a big shopping trip. The middle section of the warehouse is where I always discover something unexpected. From seasonal items to tech gadgets and home goods, it is full of unique and exciting products that constantly surprise me. Kirkland Signature products are a huge part of why I keep coming back. The quality is consistently high across everything from groceries to clothing and the prices are hard to beat. I always trust the Kirkland brand to deliver. This location is unique in that there's a garage. It's helpful because if you're there in under 1hr & 30 mins, parking is free. It helps me stay on a timeline. Haha Costco offers great value, a fun shopping atmosphere, and reliable products every time I visit. It has everything I need and a little extra, which is part of the charm.

Best Costco in the valley, even better than the Northridge one, with really good samples and the best value. I recently purchased a PlayStation 5 for $500, and it came with an extra controller - a fantastic deal!

You get 1.5 hours free parking in the parking structure. If you scan your ticket to validate at the register and/or exit, you get another hour added to that so a total of 2.5 hours free of validated parking. Parking here is just like any other Costco...hard to find parking! It was my first time at this location and I saw a few items that I haven't seen at my local Costco so that was cool to see. Staff was friendly as usual. Gotta hit up the food court for an iconic hotdog!

Wow, and most know, we love Costco. We always stop when traveling to scoop out local items most feature. In this case we actually had forgotten to get wipes to clean our hotel room (A Covid practice we have continued) and needed to gas up so we headed to closest one. What a mistake. Someone must have been taken an edible when they chose to put a Costco at a huge strip mall, then add only 2 points of entry (that includes the gas station) in a pay to park huge strip mall. What a literal nightmare for parking. To be fair they give you a free hour with validation but it takes at least that long to find parking. Never ever again even If I have to drive 10 miles out of the way

Food court ruined my experience Ordered a coffee drink and cookie at the computer, waited in the long line, they were out of the coffee drink. I asked for a refund she said I had to go back in the store to customer service. I asked for cream instead she said she couldn't do it. Customer service has an even longer line. Long story short, lost $3 and 15 minutes of my life.

Lines are long food court is always long and always one person working, ther crappy service and crappy people

That guy with glasses but no hair on his head only on his face is very ill tempered. He was looking over the member ship scan ins today just now.

I highly highly highly recommend Costco for glasses. They have their own lab that makes the glasses and they're 1/3 the price of anywhere else. My Kaiser Medicare paid for one pair of glasses and for that same price. I got three pairs of glasses at Costco. The reason This store is so great is because John is the manager. He overseas the department is on top of everything on every level. You will not be disappointed. In fact you'll be thrilled if you get your classes here, especially if John is working. Best prices, best service, and they will bend over backwards to help you.

I had a really disappointing experience at Costco today. I'm on the same household membership as my brother, but I misplaced my physical card. When I tried to check out using his card (which we are both literally under the same membership), the cashier LIZ refused to even look me up in the system or offer any help. She was incredibly rude, dismissive, and told me to "get out of line and go fix it at the membership counter" -- with zero courtesy or willingness to assist. When I asked to speak to a manager, he was just as unhelpful and made no effort to resolve the situation or verify my membership, which could've been done easily. It was frustrating and honestly humiliating to be treated like I didn't belong there--if you going to work in customer service learn how to do it. I expect better service, especially from staff and supervisors who are supposed to support members -- not brush them off.

Always has tasty samples Good Food Court Everything you'll ever need inside to buy Membership is totally worth it

This review is just for the food court. When I got there, there was a line to order from the computer and there was a homeless guy hovering around asking people to buy him a slice of pizza. That was a real turn off for me, but there was someone that told him they'd buy him the pizza. After I ordered and I got my receipt I had to wait in a line with about 30 people. When I finally got to the front of the line, there was another homeless person that went up to the front in front of me and asked for a glass of water. I then proceeded to order and I got a hotdog and asked for onions. They told me they were out of onions. I also got a salad which I looked at when I got home and it shows it expired on Monday, and today is Tuesday. Later that day I sat down to eat the salad and I noticed that half of the lettuce was brown, and the tomatoes were old and rotten so it was inedible! So overall, I suppose it could've been worse, but it wasn't a very good experience and I'll go to a different Costco next time.

This location is 5 minutes from my house but , after today I will drive 15 minutes more to go to simi valley. This is the second time unfortunately for me that I been help from this cashier name "Anthony" OP # 111 ,and is funny and upsetting that im always nice to him and he is so rude the funny part is that the lady before me was rude to him and he told her bye and have a nice day and with me not even a "hi" is sad that associates like that think that they making a customer a favor..! I work on retail and as much some customers there not to pleasant we need them to get our checks, maybe Managment won't say nothing to him,but I rather drive few more minutes and spend my $300 dll at another cosco.

Love this Costco! The Woodland Hills location has seriously stepped it up. Their kosher meat selection is the best--tons of options and always great quality. I also love browsing the clothing section--they have super trendy pieces at affordable prices, which is a nice surprise for a warehouse store! They've got a huge variety of snacks (dangerously good for impulse buys ), and their beauty products are top-notch--think name brands at way less than you'd pay at other stores. The staff is always friendly, and I've never had an issue finding easy parking, which is a big win. All-around awesome location. Definitely a solid 5/5!

When I say Costco is the devil, I mean it with a bit of sarcasm and a bit of truth. I can never leave without buying more than one thing.... I say no cart because I have end up with a cart full of something and it breaks the bank all the time. Costco and I have a love hate relationship. People who work there are mostly helpful, albeit the lines are alway long. So much to choose from even things you don't need but you can practically get everything! And since we are a family of 5 who eat all the time, we get our moneys worth for bulk items to feed the whole family. We save tons on food by buying bulk.

Yeah, people giving this Costco three stars is being generous for sure. We just pick up some drinks, TP and other small items (11 items to be exact) and the bill was $155 or so. That's is just plain crazy for that amount of items, more like cost-a-lot Costco but fine. What ticks me off the most is the staff's attitude. Today I went into the store next to my wife and the guy at the front of the door STILL asked me for my membership card?!? What? And he looked upset. Like, what did I do? Get over it. They pay them well and YOU still have attitude. Anyways, my wife told him I was with her. The other time I went there on a Thurs. evening, NOT Busy, the guy at the check stand kept giving attitude and looked upset too. Telling me to leave certain things on the cart for him to scan instead of placing on the belt. Like how do we know what you want on the cart and what you want on the check stand's belt?!? Ridiculous. I did tell him that he had needed to be a tad nicer politely and he just ignored me. What is the problem with these Costco people anyways? I didn't even have a lot on my cart and it was slow. Then we went to the outside food court today and that was a total mess. That food court has seen better days. There was no relish, some of the ketchup containers were out. The counters were filthy and no Onions available. Like there is no way you can pass inspection with that much trash and stains on the hot dog prep counter. They Make a ton of money too. The soda station looked dirty and didn't have the metal mesh that let's you out the soda down to fill it. So you're holding your food with one hand and the other hand you are balancing to get the drink filled. Horrible, with a hotdog on your hand. The mezzanine floor parking side ramp escalator to go up was not working AGAIN for the 5th time. Just a mess, forget going on a Saturday. There is never enough parking. So no enthusiasm for your role and no management staff member checks or is accountable for cleanliness and customer overall experience for the food stand.

What's not to love about Costco! There is a huge parking lot here with plenty of parking. They have all the necessities like toilet paper, laundry detergent, medicine, diapers, and paper towels. Lots of food options. A large dairy section in the back and also meat. Look to the middle for deals on random items that switch out every now and then. They have computers here as well. When I could not find an item, the attendant helped me but unfortunately they were out! Long lines to check out but they are fast and helpful. Eat samples while you shop if you can! In the end, Don't forget the pizza!

Good location. Plenty of parking and well stocked store. Good option for the area. Clean and well run.

First time to this Costco conveniently located near future LA Rams practice field in Woodland Hills, CA. Since it was an inner city Costco, it carried diverse food selections. So, I saw & picked up the durian fruits from oversea. $17.49 for 15 ounces of frozen durian with seeds! It was a mistake because the fruit didn't taste as good as in the Asia. Well, if you didn't try it, you wouldn't know how good or bad it was! To my surprised it wasn't that crowded on Monday evening! The parking was plenty but limited; it was a validated park system in which one may have to pay if it went over certain # of hours. I was lucky to find Brian, the Costco service member, who happened to be there. He guided me, over & beyond his duty, to help my parking ticket validated. Shout out to Brian for his help! As mentioned earlier, this Costco had sales items & they were different from the Costco I used to shop. Some items were dirt cheap because of manager's specials! We certainly will be back. Enjoy shopping, everyone!

As a 19-year shareholder and loyal customer, I've never felt more underappreciated by Costco. The customer service has noticeably declined, starting from the moment you walk in. There's no greeting, no acknowledgment, no sense of welcome. Upon exiting, the staff barely looks at you, silently grabs your receipt, counts your items, and hands it back without so much as a "thank you." This lack of basic courtesy reflects either poor local management or a troubling shift in culture. It's disappointing, especially compared to the service I've consistently received at locations west of the Mississippi, where employees seem to value both their jobs and the customers they serve. Costco once stood out for excellent service and employee pride. That standard is slipping--and if there were a better alternative, I'd seriously consider making a change. KDM

Prices are always good. Employees unfortunately are rude as hell. you have an employee by the name of Nelly no business in customer service

Friendly well trained staff at this location. Always helpful. I purchased an egg chair swim this Costco this evening. I struggled to get it into my car and Roger and Mark (?) helped me in the heat and direct sun and got it to fit. They were so patient and nice!

This is my home store woodland Hills. Either I'm fortunate to have such awesome employees with nice attitudes or I'm fabricating it but I'm not! I was helped by Stephen who helped me to my car and he was just so friendly and helpful. Thank you Stephen. If you like to be treated with kindness and care you should visit this woodland Hills Costco. I can't imagine going anywhere else.

Best Costco I have ever been to. People are great. High end! Love coming to this Costco.

I stopped by this Costco on a Sunday evening because I had reservations at a restrauant in the Village. The Village is basically connected to Costco since they are right next to each other. My wife was shopping for dresses at the Village so I told her I'll go to Costco to get a soda. I went inside first to see if they had the skull Halloween candy bowl but they didn't. They like the Disney pirate ship and some decorations but not the bowl. I walked around the warehouse just if they had it elsewhere but they didn't. Costco was still busy and hour before they officially close so I just went outside to get my soda since that's where the food court is. I just got 1 cup so I can refill it and the price is unbeatable. The only issue is waiting in line with other people getting food. I was able to get my Pepsi and go back to my wife at the Village. Since she spent time going to different stores, I just keep going back to Costco to refill my cup. There a lot of parking at the parking structure here and it's free for the first hour or so.

No carts available in the late afternoon so we had to wait for one. No suitable water resistant jackets for kids, only for adults. The kids clothing section is very limited. Associate reported that all eggs sell out by noon! I recommend shopping here earlier on the weekends! Costco will validate your parking ticket and you'll get up to 3 hours free. If you don't use up all the time while there, the outdoor shopping village is within walking distance and has a lot of cool shops to check out!

Got my eye exam earlier tonight by the in-house optometrist at Costco in Woodland Hills. Felt rushed throughout the eye exam, as she kept jumping form "1 or 2" to "3 or 4" before I had a chance to process what was better to the eye!

Chris from the tire center really knew so much about my vehicle. He spent more than the required time to educate me on what specifications my car required. He should me a manager!

Disrespectful!!!!Bad service!!! Don't want to visit them Again Stuff can't explain their issues

Very clean Costco. Great selection and they have better deals than elsewhere. Foodcourt is also great

Costco will forever be my best friend when it comes to buying bulk groceries, but let me tell you about their gas! Inspite the wait time or days where it's very busy, their gas has stayed competitive with low prices, and as someone who drives a bigger SUV and drives a lot, they surely helped my pocket in the midst of this inflation. Also, their gas quality is great! Go get your gas here

I love this Costco. Reasons - they have covered parking! When it's hot, cold, raining, windy etc. I'm parked in the parking structure. Not sure where people are parking but I avoid level one and the uncovered parking. I go to the M level or 2nd level to park near the elevator and it delivers me to Costco. Costco validates so that helps me keep track of how long I should be in there which saves me money by not buying things I don't need. Cashiers- they are fast, I tested the lines vs less than 15 items and I was out faster. Self check out - I like this when the line isn't long so I can get out faster. People save space while one of their members continues to shop which allows this down. Overall - It's efficient. I get to park and unload in the shade, go in and out of the warehouse and the employees in the front entrance and at the exit are fast.

Best Costco I've been to in greater LA and frankly, still a favorite Costco even outside of LA. Reasons to love it: - ample parking - they validate - they have gasoline - they have tire services - it's connected to the (formerly Westfield) Topanga Village so you can trip link! Hit the gym then Costco or any other errand in the center like Total Wine - they have a good selection of alcohol & I do like their branded Champagne. They also have large cases of beer for parties - pet supplies - excellent meat & seafood selection for various price points. They have USDA prime & choice - they also have wild & farmed fish - have purchased pots & pans here that I love - superior return policy - we don't take advantage but it's good for when something doesn't work out - affordable cut roses & frequently many potted plants for inside or outside - they have a self checkout line now - they have optometry services - we life & have used costco travel. It's very affordable & go many desirable places - tons and tons of fresh veggies and fruits and salads - they always have a wide array of new tech devices, phones, TVs etc. we have purchased all of our TVs from here. We're big fans & the price is right. - fabulous jewelry selection & watches too - friendly staff and team members - not as crazy as Marina Del Rey location - tons of party supplies. Big packs of ribs, salads, sushi, paper plates, paper towels etc. everything you need! - good basic clothes - rain coats, socks & underwear, t shirts, sweaters, etc. - onsite pharmacy - it's affordable too! - lots of supplements, personal care supplies, hygiene items etc. They also have tons of other seasonal items like patio furniture, outdoor excursion equipment & Christmas decor. Even sheds! Another something I discovered recently is that they have mega high end skin care section online only! And was able to try something at a great price which felt good because with skincare, a big ticket doesn't mean big results. Huge fan of Costco! They offer great deals, quality products and a broad range of items. I find our membership to be value add to our life. Most of the meat & seafood we eat is from Costco!

Condescending employees on a power trip Braindead customers standing around half asleep and blocking every bottleneck Paid parking

Inflation on groceries and gas prices drove me to finally invest in a Costco membership and today was finally the day! The nearest Costco to me is this one and if you are familiar with the parking and sharing it with the mall parking you know it's stressful. I usually avoid this mall because I get overwhelmed in the parking and same situation for me here. Apparently you need to get validated for free parking which I noticed but after shopping and apply for my membership I forgot to ask for validation so I had to pay, which was a little annoying since no one had told us when exiting. The process to get a membership was fairly easy and I even got approved for a credit card for there which was cool, but I felt pretty lost because I was not sure how it all worked at first. After the explanation I felt more understanding but still not 100% since I am brand new to the whole Costco system. What I did like was all the options inside the store and how big it was to walk around and all the food options! I also got myself a famous chicken bake after shopping which I enjoyed. It was not too shabby!

Firstly, every Costco that I have gone too has terrible parking so I'm not going to base my review off of that. What I do like is that the workers are helpful, welcoming, and friendly. When I was at the cash register, the cashier carefully packaged my items in the shopping totes I provided. The selection is consistent with every Costco that I've visited so far. Nothing really stands out that's unique. I have not gone here during a weekend but I do like the overall environment here. It's slightly less crowded in comparison to other Costcos I've been to in the Valley (mainly because you need to get a ticket before entering the parking lot). Lastly, most of the shoppers here are more friendly and considerate in comparison to other locations. Yes, you get the occasional a**hole who's in their bubble and treat their shopping cart like a Chevrolet Silverado (or a bumper car) but it's less here than at some of the other locations I've visited (especially Burbank). A plus is that you're right next to The Village if you need to grab some at Coffee Bean before you get your shopping out of the way.

On a Sunday morning in June, my family arrived at 9am thinking it was opened. When we arrived at 9am, I was surprised they opened at 9:30am unlike Alhambra opens at 9am. So we waited and not much people and heard the gate opened at 9:15am. The aisles are cleaned and well stocked with quite of few Star items on markdown. Not too crowded I guess Woodland Hills people come later. Validation to get 3 hours free Parking when leaving at the door. No samples at all.

A Costco membership is a must have. Due to inflation and downsizing by many stores on portion size Costco is the best option for food. My favorite purchases this month were a huge bag 5.5 pound bag of organic vegetables for 9.99, 1 pound of organic blueberries for 10.99. 6 large avocados for 7.99. I was loving the ready made quinoa salad but was told it has been discontinued which I'm very sad about. I would love to see more vegan options in the pre made food. Hoping the quinoa salad comes back! The food is always fresh at Costco due to the high volume of sales they do. There are incredible deals on eyeglasses, home goods, appliances, jewelry, clothing, holiday decor. They really have everything! This is the perfect place to stock up for holiday festivities and parties!

*COSTCO PHARMACY* First time customer at Costco pharmacy at this location (818) 884-1462 to get a prescription and MARY was extremely rude and disrespectful. She doesn't know how to speak to customers and doesn't go above and beyond. If you're tired and don't want to deal with customers pass it to someone else. I called back again and Josh helped me out. Thanks Josh for your help!

Love all the organic options they have in here . Everything was so well stocked and organized. Parking here is so chaotic inside the structure . You have to get a ticket to get in and out but make sure to get your ticket validated at the door cause the first 3 hours at Costco are free.

It is okay but crowdy. Parking is a joke ? So be ready to spend 10 min to find a good spot which is not 2 miles away lol

I love Costco because it delivers a unique shopping experience that combines quality, value, and convenience. Whether you're stocking up for a large family or just looking for a few great deals, it's hard to beat what they offer. Of course, I have to brag about my cousin Gina who works in corporate!

Didn't even start scanning my items when employee started pressing me. Need to train him again clearly needs better customer service.

This Costco is so much better than other locations, especially the Van Nuys location. I don't understand why so many are so down on it. Let's get to the big gripe up front. The parking. Yes, you have to park in a structure that is poorly laid out. Yes it is sometimes difficult to find a parking spot. BUT every Costco in Los Angeles has a poorly laid out parking lot and it's difficult to find a parking spot. Second, they validate for up to TWO HOURS, not just an hour and a half. These are all problems yes (hence the four stars) but they are LESS of a problem here than ANY OTHER area Costco, especially Van Nuys. Beyond parking, this is a nice Costco. It's laid out well although some of the aisles feel a little narrow. There are always a lot of people, but it doesn't feel as congested as some other Costcos in the area. The food court is outside, which is nice, however they don't have very much seating. Which is a bummer. Overall, we like this Costco, and if we're going on a "Costco trip" (you know what I'm talking about) well often drive past the Van Nuys location to come here.
