Amazing olive oils and balsamic vinegars. Staff is very knowledgeable and friendly. Also get the busciaola or bolognese sauce if they have it. The owner makes it himself. It’s the best you will ever have.

Awesome knowledgeable staff and incredible selection of the highest quality at reasonable prices. Specialty items are the best... Lococo's sauces are a must, when available!

Please be aware that you will not be allowed to exchange products at this store. I tried to exchange mine, but was told because it was a food item and it was not legal. I called another Amphora store and was told no problem whatsoever they do it all the time. The olive oil is sealed and there’s no problem with exchanging it. The person’s name at the store in San Anselmo was Eduardo and he told me he was the manager.

I just had the best experience at Amphora. I've recently been researching the health benefits of premium extra virgin olive oil. There's a Reddit group discussing the olive oil sold by Blueprint, and if it's possible to find premium oil like that in stores with high levels of polyphenols, oleacanthal etc. Well someone mentioned Amphora and wow, this stuff is legit! They let me sample the different oils, and I could taste the peppery kick in my throat from the oleacanthal. And all the vats had detailed breakdowns of polyphenol, oleic, etc listed. I think it was the owner who was letting me try the samples, he was so helpful and informative and also picked out a traditional balsamic for me to try, it was delicious! I ended up with a bottle of the Coratina, and Mission olive oils, and the Traditional balsamic. I will be back for more for sure. It was such a great experience I asked if they ever do team building groups and they said yes, they've had those kinds of groups in before. I believe it!

It's a great place but they don't keep their hours consistent, or they don't update them in Apple Maps. I just tried to go on a Wednesday at 5:40pm, when they should've been open according to Apple Maps, and they were closed. Their loss... I'm traveling tomorrow and was planning to buy multiple bottles of oils & vinegars as a gift to my hosts for the next few days.

I recently popped into a Amphora, a Nueva in San Anselmo to get party favors for my client party. Surprisingly this is my first time in the shop... Gilberto and his staff are knowledgeable and friendly. They offered to make me a number of samples before I made my selections. They have a fantastic selection of yummy olive oil and vinegar, which make for great gifts!

Honestly one of the best establishments in the world. Best olive oil anywhere, lots of gourmet items, all of it very down to earth with the pricing. Top quality stuff, free samples, super good vibes. Every time I come to Marin I make a point to visit here and every time it's like... this must be what it's like to be super rich

The choices for Olive Oil are amazing! Discover the best vinegars you have ever tried, the White Balsamic is great for mixing, I am partial to the red wine vinegar and its brightness, you will love the premium red balsamic, it is smooth with hints of sweetness. San Anselmo is lucky to have this great shop!

Whenever I’m in town, I always make sure to stop by my favorite olive oil shop! Everyone is always so friendly and always ready to assist in any of your olive oil/balsamic vinegar needs?

Customer service is above and beyond!For my mom's birthday, one of (several) surprise stops was to replenish her favorite olive oil. As soon as we turned into Mill Valley, she knew where we were headed and started going on and on about how much she loves this place. Post-stroke, verbal communication is a significant challenge for her but they were ALL soooo patient and engaging. It was an absolute heartwarming experience. (They spoiled her because it was her birthday, too!)Customer service aside - the oils and vinegars are just the best! The magic happens when they pair the two together and give suggestions on how to use the "recipe" because they help you think outside the box. (Balsamics in sparkling water make a festive soda.)My favorite option is the small bottles so I can feed my need for variety. She buys the largest bottles possible of her favorites. Everyone leaves happy.

My experience is always superb here. The staff are very welcoming and knowledgeable. Today, I was helped by Edwardo who provided fun tips to incorporate the different balsamic oils. Highly recommend for everyone to pick up their olive oil and balsamic here if you are a big foodie. ?

What a gift this place is to San Anselmo. The variety and quality of the olive oils is stunning. But the real magic is the white balsamics. The fantastically friendly owner got me hooked on them years ago when he made me a grapefruit balsamic and sparkling water, and I've been drinking them ever since. Great service. Good people.
