Trader Joe’s

This is the new Trader Joe’s in Davie at the University shops tower shops pretty good nice and clean place it’s your typical Trader Joe’s got the vegetarian meat patties got a couple pizza got some of the cookies got some of that wine you really can’t go wrong with the place like this consistently good super fast service you get in you get out could not ask for anything more

My favorite grocery store, hands down.
I was waiting for this store to open as soon as I saw the sign that it would be going in. I had been to the Pines location a few times, but it was too far to squeeze into my schedule regularly. When the Davie location opened, I was a little disappointed at the size but I’ve gotten over it. It has what I need and then some.
I rely on this store for the majority of my grocery shopping at this point, and am here at least once a week. I love everything from the wine, to the produce, to the frozen foods. Not necessarily in that order. ok, who am I kidding, in exactly that order! They have a great wine selection, and some good prices on bubbly too (at least for a non-​connoisseur, like me — I just go with what tastes good)! I like that I always find something new and different to try there and at a great price! I’m never too worried if I don’t see the price for something right away and I’ve never had sticker shock at the register like I usually do at most other grocery stores (I had to pretty much give up on Whole Foods for that reason). Love the organic options, the lunch meat, and fresh flowers and friendly and helpful employees too — how could you go wrong?

Trader Joe’s is a great store. Customer service is alway above expectations. Ther fruits and vegetables are always fresh and at a great price. This location is very clean and organized. Big parking lot in busy shopping center. Best prices in wine as always.

Trader Joe’s certainly knows how to «bring it» for holiday delights! The Thanksgiving sides of stuffing, [dry in bag] and sweet potato casserole were amazing! The stuffing was perfectly seasoned, I just added fresh onions, celery and water. The sweet potatoes had a topping that made grown men meow! LOL! Covered in delicious brown sugar, other natural yums and diced nuts sealed this superb side.
Dessert… Flourless Chocolate Cake! O M G! The fresh one. All its fudgy goodness had me hook, line and sinker! I do believe at least 5 – 6 were purchased through out the holiday months.
The clarified butter is great to cook with. Taste is on point and is a true time saver at an amazing low price!
December was Chocolate time. Wowed truly wowed! I shared TJ’s delicious chocolate with many! A few more fans for Trader Joe!
It was really fun getting bags from some of the other locations! Nice touch.
Trader Joe Thank You for adding more joy to our Holidays!

Finally a Trader Joes close to home in Broward! I stopped by with my mom and it was pretty packed (but nowhere as bad as the ones in NY). They carry the same stuff and staff is super friendly. Since this store is new, everything looked shiny and clean. There were lots of workers constantly restocking as we were doing our grocery shopping and as always, samples for you to enjoy.

My favorite store from east to west coast! Amazing high quality wine selection, yummy cheese, lots of delicious and healthy meals, snacks and super friendly stuff!
I always leave this place in a great mood
Thank you, trader Joe’s

I was torn on should I give this place 3 or 4 stars, but it would not have been fair to give them 3 stars based on my expectations of me expecting the store to be larger. This was the first time I have been to a TJ so maybe other locations are larger. I will say the customer service was very friendly and helpful without asking. The store was very crowded, but the check out line were moving fast and all registers were open to meet the demand.
I found a lot of unique specialty items which i could have gotten a basket full of. I will certainly be returning back to TJ in the future, but when i have need for something different or a unique item to Jazz up a dish and put a twist on it.

I knew they were building a Trader Joe’s here, but I didn’t realize it had opened until this past weekend. I literally asked the cashier when they had opened and he said Oct 9^th! What. I think I went to the Trader Joe’s in Pembroke Pines a month ago so I drove that extra 15 min for something in my backyard.
Sure, it’s off of University and already in a congested area, but I’m still excited to have a Trader Joe’s close by. I think it’s bigger than the one in Pembroke Pines. Frozen mac n cheese, snack pack almonds, spinach and chive linguine, cheap wines, ginger cookies, etc are now so readily accessible. I know everyone has different favorites, but there are just some things that I just love getting from Trader Joe’s because of the price and quality. Also, I used to shop at Trader Joe’s all the time on the West Coast, and being inside this store makes me feel a little more at home.
Overall, the store is very clean, the aisles are wide, and all the employees there are happy to help. I’m looking forward to getting my groceries here on a regular basis.

I stopped by Trader Joes on an early Sunday. To my surprise, the store was pretty lively and packed for a weekend at 8 am.
Walked in to a lot of smiling faces and fresh produce.
First thing I noticed was how much more affordable the avocados were here! I love me some avocados so that alone earned them the 5 stars from me!
I purchased some fruits, walked around, purchased some waffles and probiotics.
The staff was attentive and was very willing to help and the prices are very reasonable.
I really enjoyed the set up of the store and how cozy it is. Having said that, its quite small and I dont think they have everything you need. I didnt see certain products and their variety is a bit limited. But they have wine, avocados and waffles — so almost everything one needs.
I noticed they have very reasonable prices for the really cute flower bouquets — will definitely stop by for my weekly flowers here. They had really cute tulips!
Parking was fairly easy, but like I mentioned, I went on a Sunday at 8 am. Im interested in seeing how crazy it gets on a Thursday at 7 pm.
If you havent been to Trader Joes — check them out. Eat some cookie butter, buy some 3 buck chuck (their cheap wine), and purchase more avocados than one could possibly hope to consume.

I had never been to a Trader Joe’s before this location opened. My only impression of organic food markets was from whole foods which is great, but quite pricey. On the other hand, Trader Joe’s is a very affordable option with a unique selection of organic food products. The staff is very nice and makes you feel right at home. I come here particularly for their high-​quality dairy, (cheap) produce, and frozen foods. They also have a delicious selection of chocolates by the registers. Oh, and let’s not forget their flowers… wow!

I’ve been waiting for Davie to get a TJ’s ever since they moved the Whole Foods across the street earlier this year. Why they had to put it in the most crowded shopping center in town, who knows. But I’m glad it’s here. It’s a unique experience that’s a combo of shopping at whole foods and a farmer’s market.
5 stars for the service. The people who work here are really super awesome. They go all out here, double bagging stuff for you in PAPER which I love-​since these are actually re-​usable bags, rather than a billion plastic ones I’ll toss. The prices here for almost everything is either lower or along the same lines of a store like Publix-​but higher quality and usually organic. They have a bunch of niche items which I can’t seem to find anywhere else. This is definitely one of the smaller stores by far, but it’s great since the reason you typically come here is to supplement your shopping for those things you can’t find other places. I don’t think a lot of people do ALL their shopping here.
I love the wine selection here-​not just the 2 buck chuck that they are famous for. They have a killer selection of house wines along with a decent amount of new and old world wines which are decently hard to find elsewhere at good prices too. YAY! I also like that they have tastings if you can catch them on the right day. Sweet :) I also love the back bakery area with tons of bread and the fish selection is also my favorite. I can’t wait to get back into the area so I can actually shop here on a regular basis!

I had first been in a Trader Joe’s during a visit to Wisconsin and loved, loved, loved it. So, I was so happy to hear that one was opening less than 5 minutes from my house. I expected the first couple of days to be busy so I waited about a week before visiting.
I was very happy to find it busy; but, not overly crowded. We were able to find parking without a problem since they are the only store open in the new area of Tower Shops. The aisles weren’t packed with people so we could maneuver through easily and find everything we were looking for. The store was super clean, well stocked and every employee we saw was friendly and helpful.
I picked up my favorite cookie butter (Yum), their seasonal Pumpkin Bread (Double Yum) and tried a few samples. Then, as we were browsing, we found some amazing looking pretzel rolls and instantly we were having burgers for dinner that night. I’m really happy Trader Joe’s is now close enough for me to pop over and pick up some of their amazing products quickly and easily.

This was my first experience at any Trader Joe’s ever, and it was a very positive one.
At first glance, the store seemed small but once you start walking around you realize they have pretty much everything you need. I walked around grabbing things that looked yummy, especially in the frozen foods. I’m a busy college student and don’t like to eat out that much so stocking up on frozen food that doesn’t take long to prepare is a must. ((Also got the cookie butter that everyone goes crazy for, tried a spoonful when I got home and the hype is real — delicious!))
The staff is super friendly! The cashier was giving me tips on how to cook some of the foods and informed me there were NO PRESERVATIVES in any of the foods, awesome!
I like that TJ is making healthy foods more affordable to the masses and will be doing more grocery shopping here in the future.

This is a new Trader Joe’s location @ I-​595 and University Drive. I was at the Home Depot store, in the same shopping center, when I spotted this new store. I was happy for the opportunity to pick up some of my favorite T-​JOES products. I just love their Pumpkin Cream cheese and especially their Hummus. I also picked up a few packages of their Frozen Pizzas — they are ever so good. I grabbed more of their Dark Chocolate than I should have — but it is so irresistible.

Last, but not least, I loaded up with a case of their famous «Two Buck Chuck». You will not believe how good this wine is for 2.99 a bottle and they have a large inventory of reds and whites. T-​JOES, YOU ROCK!

What a pleasant shopping experience. All the staff members are so nice. Last night was my second time in after their busy grand opening, so I was able to soak in the experience of the store some more. Walked by the samples and tried some pumpkin pie spice cooker butter. The lovely lady behind the counter heard my boyfriend ask, ‘oh is this like apple butter?’ (his favorite thing) She eagerly reached into her fridge as she was telling us «I have Pumpkin Butter! Want to try!?» Sold! She was so sweet and told us about how she grew up on apple butter too. We picked up a jar and some bread and then walked over to produce. I’ve been drinking lemon and hot water in the mornings so I’ve been buying a lot of it recently and bam! There it was, 49 cents for a lemon! Publix has it for 2 for $ 1.29. I was a happy camper! I usually pick up only a few items when I shopped at other Trader Joe’s. such as teas, wine and oatmeal, but I’m finding myself trying more and more of their products with each visit. The checkout lines were not bad either. Walked right up to a register as another customer was finishing up. The Towers shopping plaza used to give me a lot of anxiety because of all the thru traffic and was concerned when I found out Trader Joe’s would be in this area. Surprisingly, parking has not been a problem.

I’ve been a big fan of Trader Joe’s for a while now, and I’ve been anxiously/​patiently awaiting this new Davie location to open to save me from having to drive all the way to Pines.
First off, why not 5 stars? Well, honestly, I’d give 5 stars for service. Every employee I came in to contact with was extremely nice!
But in terms of store size and products, I found it to be a little bit lacking when compared to some of the other locations I’ve been too. Hopefully this is just a part of them recently opening and they’ll be getting in some of the Trader Joe’s products that I wasn’t able to find.
Also, parking. When I came on a weekday at ~5:30pm, parking wasn’t an issue, but the parking «aisles» are short, and weaving up and down them to find a spot makes you awkwardly turn back out into a «main» road within this plaza — which led to some traffic concerns.
Ok, other than my small concerns, I’ll be shopping here frequently. I love the Trader Joe’s products and I love that this store caters to those who want to cook, and those who are looking for microwavable options, they really do cater to both walks of life.
As always, I picked up some of my favorite TJ products, and found some new ones (score for the already sliced jicama!, and double score for the pumpkin cream cheese!). And as I mentioned the employees were just so nice, it made me want to come in and shop here everyday!

Stopped in at this new Trader Joe’s on its 3^rd day of business. I gotta say the experience and staff were superb. They were re-​stocking all over the place, asking if you needed help finding things, and there were plenty of registers open. The store was super clean and bright (as it should be on day 3).
I spent lots of money on things I didn’t know I needed, and smiled the whole time. I was happy to try the pumpkin cookie butter sample (unbelievable!) and peruse the aisles like a kid at a playground. I picked up some old favorites and some new things to try. I couldn’t be happier that a Trader Joe’s is now in this area. Yea!!!

You have no idea how happy I was to know that a Trader Joe’s was to be opened only 7 minutes away from my house. I don’t have to drive 25 minutes to Pines anymore to pick up my favorite yogurt and snacks!
I was able to stop by at their grand opening and it was very busy but they planned for it. There was plenty of staff at the registers and walking around making shopping easy and quick. Their shelves were fully stocked and items very fresh. I love shopping here because of all the organic fruits and vegetables. I also love their coffee and their greek honey yogurt. I can’t get enough of this place. Everyone is so nice and the prices I find are cheaper than Whole Foods and Publix.

Have you ever been to a Trader Joe’s?
Very unique store with a different approach! This is a store you will walk through and see happy employees everywhere! From stocking fresh ingredients, to just being there to answer questions, you will enjoy your experience thoroughly.
Free coffee samples daily. Please try the pumpkin coffee it’s delightful!
Floral bouquets & produce here are gorgeous! The prices are just right! Whether you shop conventional or organic there is plenty to choose from!
Each day they feature unique food samples in the back left corner of the store. Sometimes it’s a sweet treat, other times a savory one. Any questions about allergies or food restrictions? Just ask! They always seem to be ready with an answer & if not they will definitely find out!
Shopping around the store and unsure if you want to buy a product? Ask a team member & they «may» let you try it and sample the rest for customers in the back. Just don’t take advantage! I’ve only sampled one item ever and it was the spicy cashews. Wanted to see if my daughter could handle the heat! She did and we buy them all the time now. They are amazing!
Which brings me to my favorites:
–Soy cherry chocolate chip ice cream! Woo Hoo it’s good!
— foursome organic mixed veggies (makes the best pot pie)!
— habanero tortilla wraps are amazing! They make the best wraps, adding a nice kick!
— love all of their organic pasta, beans, rices & grains!
Trader Joe’s is a name you can trust! Please see the photo I am going to post which will further explain why they are my go to place to shop!
At check out, your cart goes on the cashier side. Just park it and they do the rest! Bring back your reusable bag & you will be entered into a drawing for a gift card! Also, if you have kids (or like me you are a grown up who acts like a kid), find the hidden gecko and they will give you a yummy organic lollipop. My daughters favorite were the throwback 1980’s scratch & sniff stickers the cashier gave to her.
Parking: I don’t like to drive around and around to find that front spot. I make it a game and park as far as I can, sometimes opposite end of the plaza and we call it cardio!
Awesome store! Staff sweet as pie! Selection: wonderful!
Tip: be on the look out for the stalk of Brussels coming soon!!! They are beautiful & if you take pics of food you will want to share this unique veggie & how it’s presented! (If you can’t wait search google for trader joes Brussel sprout stalk.!)

How I love Trader Joe’s and this one is huge and the newest of the all (for now because in a week the Ft Lauderdale location opens).
Right on the Northwest corner of University and Nova dr. in the Home Depot, Ross Tower Shops plaza, this grocery store has it’s own parking lot with ease if parking– unlike the other stores in the plaza, and Wholefoods across the street.
Trader Joe’s has over 85% of the store dedicated to Trader Joe products which are made free of GMO, chemicals, hormones, and satisfaction guarantee where you can return any purchased items for a full return.
Some of my favorite Trader Joe (TJ) items are:
–Produce (I buy by the organic bag at a great price)
–Hummus (the garlic one)
–Cheese! (English cheddar w Italian Truffle, just heavenly! New Zealand grass fed– great prices)
–Multigrain Flax Tortilla chips
–uncured smoked Bacon ends (more like hunks and chunks)
–Lunch Meats (like uncured ham, roast beef, Turkey)
–3 $ Wine (I love the cabernet)
–water 50¢ a bottle
–alkaline water I get the 1.5L bottle
–carbonated flavored water
–tamales in the fridge section (Savannah told me best)
–frozen tamales (shredded pork was yum)
–frozen Pizza (prosciutto w buratta, and truffle w mushroom)
–Frozen ready made meals –Mandarin chicken, chicken lime burgers, chicken pot pie, four cheese Mac and cheese, Gyoza
–frozen Veggies
–desserts –frozen chocolate ganashe mousse cake, Viennese Lemon Tart, Tiramisu torte, Chocolate Pecan Pie
–dark Chocolate bar (72%)
–fresh flowers at great prices, and orchids
–brownie crisps (thin crispy bites of brownie)
–nuts! At great prices, trail mixes too, individual bags if you like
I love the Food for Life Ezekiel bread and here you can find it un-​frozen and with the other bread products. Trader Joe’s even makes their own sprouted grain bread. I love Trader Joe’s ciabatta
The employees are extremely friendly and act as if they love their job.
Yes! I’ll be back and parking was no problem for me:)
