Gold River Town Center — Local services in Rancho Cordova

Shopping center parking lots generally don't inspire much of anything other than the urge to get in and out as quickly as possible. But the large, easily accessible parking area where the Gold River Bel Air grocery store is located has the most gorgeous, pleasing to the eye, tree filled landscape. The low maintenance, drought tolerant landscaping and the extensive use of local river rock throughout the shopping center's parking areas makes the mundane task of looking for a parking space a more bearable experience, IMHO.

When I have gone to the one by where I work it was good. This one the garlic fries were hard cold and to me looked like they were double dipped or refried in the oil. The Tri-Tip sandwich was not good, used a different harder bun. Tables were being cle phones eared and clean quickly. People making sandwiches didn't have their hair tied back in buns or hair nets.
