Seriously twice as much money as other places less than a mile a way.😳 We left empty handed. Don't waste your time.

Almost $70 for an 1/8th and it was garbage. Pretty sure that what they let you smell in the store is not what's in the package they hand you.

2nd time there, strictly looking for edibles. They have a huge selection (although they we were out of Kiva gummies). Staff is all women, no problems there. Nice clean layout with security guards. I'll definitely be back again.

SAFE ACCESS = DENIED ACCESS TL;DR. This place has turned into a hot garbage fire. Was good a few years ago, but now that recreational consumption is in full swing, SCSA turns away loyal customers if they dare to have an opinion about their always-failing/empty ATM’s. In my case, raising my concern resulted in a full-time ban. More information below, but needless to say you have choice when purchasing cannabis. Don’t choose SCSA. They may be proud to be the first in licensed dispensary in the OC, but I promise you they don’t hire first rate people to manage the business. They’ll ask for your info, promise to fix it and ban you… THUGS and GOONS! Read below for more detail. ---- Was loyal to SCSA for years and tipped the bud tenders accordinsly. Was promised an additional one-time discount after the ATM was repeatedly out of cash (sure partially my fault for not bringing cash), but bud tender was PRO-ACTIVE in offering an additional discount for my next visit. I did NOT ask for this. It was offered, so I asked on my next two visits and was told… “I see a note, but no discount. I can ask my manager.” A few minutes pass each time. Bud tender returns to state” I asked my manager and sorry there is nothing we can or are going to do for you.” On my way out of the establishment, one of the other bud tenders (possibly managers) recognized me, said hello and asked how it was going. I explained that I wasn’t very happy with the expectation that was set and that they didn’t follow through. She introduced herself as Gaby, asked for my name and assured me that she would look into it. I explained that it’s a shame and that I will likely withhold my tips. I take care of people when taken care of. A few weeks later, I show up (with cash) and am not let in to the back and am told that the reason is for leaving bad reviews about the ATM! I stated that I have never written a review, but did have a bad experience. A young lady (well, she didn’t really act like much of a lady, but I’ll be kind) insisted that “she didn’t care and that I would have to leave.” Do not trust these folks. MedMen is just down the street. Go there. They won’t ban you for voicing an opinion, not to mention they’ll happily and legally accept your debit card. Unlike SCSA whom are illegally accepting credit cards.

This is the business dispensary for a reason. They have amazing deals and prices. They have tons of bud-tenders working to ensure you get helped quickly and find what you're looking for. I've been in here over 20 times and have never been disappointed. I only smoke Heavy Hitters and they have never run out of product on me, so thank you for that SCSA!

This place has become our go-to when it comes to selection and friendly service. Wide selection of goods for anyone interested in CBD, vape cartridges, and edibles.
Dispensary response:
Thank you for your kind review and for making us your go-to shop. It is always a pleasure serving you. See you soon!

Amazing experience! Finally got to chat with a bud tender that knew what he” was talking about. Very refreshing to talk with someone who has actual knowledge of real hash and flowers. I love the fact that this shop sends to a local lab for testing so we know percentages. I like facts and this place has got them. That’s a fact. I didn’t feel rushed and I felt very comfortable. I really don’t like purple because it’s sign of malnutrition or it got too cold so it’s technically Frostbite or miss use of nutrients so usually 9.8 times out of 10 purple is Swag. But here they had the missing
“.2”%
I left here with the best smelling purple ever haha tested at 30% haha
sooo what the heck.

Never giving them any business. Called to ask about shop hours was told it was open till 10 showed up at 945 to be rudely turned away by a giggling security guard. So much for loyalty I could have went elsewhere but this is really not right

Great service and quality product, large space, doesn’t feel rushed

Bummer of an experience.
Management, through budtenders, basically told me that Leafly is not up to date with anything. They blamed leafly for this. Likely story--more likely technologically incompetent management.
They don't honor their first timer deal listed. As far as product, they were out of a few of the higher THC content buds. Strange, bad experience. I walked out.
Also, the woman at the front desk was very cool, very knowledgeable. The budtender seemed knowledgeable, but the experience was ruined. This is on management. Get your stuff sorted out.

This place is the absolute best Dispensary to visit. All budtenders, especially Jenee, help me find what I'm looking for. The administration people at the front are always friendly and courteous. I always feel very safe visiting this location, there is always an armed guard by the front door, he is always friendly and observant.

Rude receptionist at the front.... place that does nothing but apologize for their screw ups and overpriced bud.

Went this dispensary because my last favorite one closed, what an upgrade! Very high quality upscale environment. Options with flowers, concentrates, & edibles are endless. They also have glass pieces for sale. Every time I go I have a hard time deciding what to pick but that's not such a bad thing. Highly recommended for first time medical patients you'll feel really comfortable here
