If one were to only take into account what they offer on the shelves, they would honestly get a 5-star rating.
The reason they are receiving a 2-star rating is due to the way I was treated by certain Whole Foods employees at the Lakewood location. Their demeanor, their lack of service, and their professionalism was so bad. Unfortunately, every time I go the sandwich counter it is either closed or they never have enough ingredients on hand to make a simple sandwich or wrap.
In regard to the hot food station, I would not recommend it if you consider food safety, your health, and wellbeing a top priority.

So after some time, my fiancée and I decided to give the sandwiches another try. First thing we noticed is the menu has been completely revamped, no more TTLA. After some time we decided on the Purple Falafel. Unfortunately, this option did not go well. For starters, the falafel was flavorless and extremely dry. I added Tapatio just to give it some type of kick / flavor. Secondly, we added avocado. It was hard and brown. Third of all, it’s supposed to come with hummus and cucumber and it contained neither one. Lastly, the 20% price increase did not help the situation either (sandwiches used to be $9.99. The PF is $11.99 + $2 for the avocado = $13.99). As for the person who made the wrap, she was super cool and was busting her butt getting orders out, so kudos to her. She was really hustling!!
I remember the TTLA was our go-to at Whole Foods and it always hit the spot but now it feels like it’s all going downhill. So from 2 stars we are moving it to 1. Heavy sigh.
