The shop owner was very welcoming and knowledgeable about the items in the store and even gave us recommendations for local restaurants (which were fantastic - The Joint was a favorite)! Highly recommend visiting! :)”

The owner is very kind, and always packages the purchase with care. I also live how there is placards explaining the history and uses behind each item. I will continue to return!”

“I had an amazing experience at OB Gift Shop! I was looking to get a custom hoodie made, and Sam was the one who helped me — what an incredible guy! He was friendly, professional, and truly went above and beyond to make sure everything turned out exactly the way I wanted. The quality of the hoodie is top-notch, and the custom design came out perfect. You can tell he takes pride in his work and genuinely cares about customer satisfaction.

If you’re looking for unique gifts, custom apparel, or just great service, OB Gift Shop is the place to go. Huge thanks to Sam for making it such a smooth and memorable experience. Highly recommend!”

“I saw the prices in the store window and I thought no way, everything was actually reasonably priced I got a san Diego shirt for only $8 instead of $20 and when I asked the kind lady up front she told me theyed been there for over 30 years and the owner refused to steal from tourists with crazy prices, I've never been so happy to buy a souvenir!”

“Cute and small store, a lot of items. Makes sense that it’s imported prices because of taxes right now. I wouldn’t mind going back to buy more studio ghibli things.”

“Pigment is a store out of my dreams. If you love looking at nick nacks that are arranged by zones of color and interspersed with plants, this is the place for you.

They stock all kinds of gift options like candles, jewelry, books, ornaments, crystals, etc.

There is a pretty extensive kids section with cute clothes and jelly cat stuffies.

If you go around to the back side of the store you can build your own plant terrariums ( they will also build for you ) with the plants that they have stocked.

I always find something cute to take home from sunglasses to shirts or recipe books - there’s plenty to choose from.”

“This is a must go place among many other attractions in San Diego. In fact, it got to be in the top 10 list for being such a splendid and magnificent architecture in the heart of San Diego, offering a place for book lovers, knowledge seekers etc. There are multiple levels with a huge collection of books, computers, secluded areas to focus on one's work and beautiful views of the beautiful city. There is also an auditorium for various types of events adjacent to a small open area. Parking is nothing to worry about. Come, park and enjoy this luxury.”

“Had the most amazing customer service from Sage at this location!! She went out of her way to track down an item I was looking for, send me pictures of possible other options, called other locations to check if they had it in stock, and even had it transferred to the Point Loma location so that it was easiest for me to pick it up. I could not have asked for a better experience. :)”

“If you're visiting Barrio Logan and you don't stop at Casa XoVi you're missing out. I'm down in the area a few times a year and I NEVER MISS IT.The owner is fabulous. Such a wonderful woman and authentic. She cares and will help you get just what you need and what you didn't even realize you needed. Perfect spot for gifts also. The home made delicacies.... I stock up when I'm there.Try it all. You will thank me!I confess that I love the area but a lot of the shops are all selling identical things now and that is why I love Casa XoVi it is still unique.Art, Yummies, decor, gifts, and some of the classic items. Take a basket and let her fill it up and you will have a gift no one will forget.Go early for the best parking. I suggest comfy shoes and park a little ways off as it is more fun walking than fighting for parking. If you're close enough UBER.I feel this ship is a cultural explosion of quality and beautiful products. That with the warm and welcoming environment is pure love. ENJOY..I can't wait to return ?♥️”

“What a fun hidden gem in Balboa Park!

We had so much fun walking through the cultural houses and stopping inside to learn about the different countries. We listened to a musician from Ireland, tried sweet treats from Mexico and Scotland, learned to write “snake” in Mandarin, and more!

I highly recommend taking an hour or two to explore the houses, and wrap up your experience with a visit to this gift shop where fun trinkets made in a variety of countries are sold. Many of the items are sold to support charitable organizations!”

“We popped in this store because of all the amazing wind chimes and shells displayed outside. Lots of gifts from Ocean Beach, but what I loved most was that a large majority of them were made of shells and seaglass.

I chose a starfish ornament to take home and when I checked out, the cashier told me that all the starfish in that style were hand painted by someone in-store and that was pretty cool.

We then bonded over Columbo and when we left. He was sure to tell us there was 'just one more thing...'

Cool shop, kind people. Highly recommend!”

“Great place for San Diego/old town souvenirs at great prices! Got the magnet and shot glass (real glass) for $3.50 each. Docked a star because this is impossible to park near if you have a car as it’s in an extremely busy part of town.”

She also partners with such cool creators to sell other adorable things. Perusing here is so fun, especially with a cup of coffee in hand from the coffee shop in the same space!”

“I found a retro hoodie that I loved! It was the last one and it was my size. Took it, and a couple other items, to the register to pay. When he tried to find the tag it wasn’t there. He tried to find another size on the rack and in the back. Turns out this was the last one in the entire park. He went to get a manager and while waiting searched the system to see if he could find it. After a lengthy wait the manager came out and after explaining the situation apologized for making me wait so long and rang it up under a hoodie that was the same brand, but at half the price. I was a little upset about the long wait, but they were both very apologetic and they made it right by giving me a huge discount.”
