The shop owner, Rex, was friendly, knowledgeable, approachable, took time to share info about anything we had questions about. The samples of liquor and oils were great, and felt that helped a lot to try before our purchase. There's a ton of stuff in that shop. Could spend hours there, and looking forward to going back.

I am so glad that my family and I stumbled into this shop during our visit at Ghirardelli Square! Rex, the owner, was so welcoming and kind. He offered us samples of the their homemade Extra Virgin Olive Oils and Balsamic Vinaigrettes! I was astounded with all the different flavors and how delicious everything tasted. I ended up purchasing their Truffle EVVO and Date Balsamic Vinaigrette, which had such nice flavors of sweetness. I also loved their lemon flavored EVVO. I have used it on salads and it is quite delicious. My husband was quite interested in their liquor collection and sampled their bourbon whiskeys. He ended up purchasing their Old Fashioned. The interior of the place is cozy, clean, and modern, with their selections of Olive Oils and vinaigrettes on one side of the room by the checkout counter, and their wine and liquor on the other side of that. A plus is that they ship orders! I'm definitely visiting this place again when I'm in San Francisco. Until then, I'll order online for my EVVO and Balsamic needs!

Amazing products and amazing service! We were post-Christmas shopping and this was such a treat. We were given small samplers of oils, they had a variety of infused different flavors which were all delicious. They then made a recommendation of which vinegar would pair well with the oils that we chose. Between their thorough list of oils and vinegars, their friendly and helpful service, and the variety of other products in their store (spices, pastas, wine, etc.) This store is one of my new favorites!

Such a cute gem to stumble upon in Ghirardelli square! They have liqueurs, spirits, oils and vinegars.They gave lots of samples of the liqueurs and oils and I ended up getting absinthe as a gift for a friend and the truffle olive oil.The truffle olive oil is to die for and made with real truffles! They also customized my bottle of absinthe which was really special. Great place for gifts.

Rex and Mannie are great at what they do! Rex is also incredibly knowledgeable and worldly about his wares and patient while pouring samples of many different spirits while dealing with many different customers.Will shop with them again in the future.

What a GEM!!! Was walking around the shopping center being tourists that we are and randomly came across this store like 2 min before closing. The gentleman who is the owner of the store welcomed us in (my wife & I) with open arms and began explaining the store and what their items were.After a few free sample sips and 30 minutes later (although they should have closed 28 minutes), we ended up buying this small batch of Old Fashioned. I'm an avid Old Fashion drinker and this might be the best I've ever had!This 200ml equals to about 3 generous servings. So very well worth it. Will certainly be back to try others! Thank you for the exceptional service!

Travis was helpful with kindly letting me sample the different vinegars available. The packaging of a lot of the items are cute, quaint, and easy to gift. Really appreciated the customer service here.

I visited the San Francisco location back in November, and the staff was so rude! There's a lot to take in and they would barely allow me to browse so I could decide on what I wanted. I watched other customers come in and they didn't harass/bother them like they did me. (I'm black, btw and they seemed to have an issue with that) I did manage to pick out a few items that I really wanted, but their attitudes were so bad that I ended up just walking out. I was a little bummed because I loved the way the products were packaged and the fact that they write the labels by hand. Eh, their loss...not mine. :)

Visiting San Fran with bestie. Had to go to Ghirardelli's marketplace. How lucky were we to find this shop! The owner was super helpful and friendly. He offered a tasting of some fabulous oils and balsamics. In addition there was a selection of teas and wine. Please don't pass this place up. Amazing customer service and perfect gift shopping!

This place is awesome. Very knowledgeable staff & you can try all the oils, vinegars, & liquors. They were very accommodating & had great recommendations for recipes that we could try w/what we bought. I do wish we had 1 of these shops in Portland!

This is a lovely shop with a curated selection of high quality oils, vinegars, spices, and spirits. Staffed by friendly and knowledgeable workers that are happy to share their knowledge and offer samples. I discovered this store through a promotion on an app, and I'm happy to return to purchase from their full inventory. Highly recommend.
