We love going within our neighborhood of Queen Anne to support local businesses and were thrilled to find this little delicious shop so close to home. Not only do they sell really great quality olive oil, we’ve never not had a pleasant experience entering the store. Everyone is so nice and helpful! We’ve bought many gifts here for relatives and friends who always want more of what we got them! They also offer shipping right from the store, so convenient! Highly recommend stopping in and trying out a thing or two :)

Came to purchase a gift for my Mom. Will assisted me with choosing between different oils and vinegars for a gift pack and provided very helpful suggestions. I was able to sample some of the stores excellent selection before making a decision. Great experience overall and looking forward to returning.

Unbelievable selection following the olive growing seasons of northern and southern hemispheres, 360 degrees around the planet. Visit the store and then a bakery on the way home. Cant imagine cooking and therefore living, without it!

I knew very little about olive oil before taking a tasting tour of the store. Now I am hooked! This store is amazing! There are so many delicious flavors to choose from. The staff is always ready to give a new tip or recipe suggestion. I have discovered a whole new way of cooking. I have also found that a nice set of sample bottles makes a wonderful and unique hostess or hospitality gift.

What an incredible store. Excellent choice of high end olive oils. Was pleasantly surprised and loved the olive oil hand soap (smells wonderful and very soft on the skin). Staff is very knowledgeable and extremely friendly. Willing to share their knowledge and answer any questions you may have. Definitely get the balsamic vinegar (red is my favorite).

The best place ever for olive oil and balsamic. When I first tried their balsamic, I couldnt believe it actually can be so good. And a variety is really good. Im coming back on regular basis for more because were going through those bottles in no time. (We do it a lot of greens). Of course prices there are biting a bit, but they totally worth it. If you are a regular, you get bonuses, what is nice. And owner is absolutely incredible, dedicated, nicest person ever. I would highly recommend the place to everyone who appreciates the taste of high quality oil and balsamic.

HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE (for the most part). Yesterday I ran in to buy a few last minute Christmas gifts. The 2 staff members helping me yesterday were kind and courteous, but overcharged me by $12 due to some weird system error. Ive shopped there prior and hadnt thought twice about the cost of my purchase (and neither did they) until I got home and checked my receipt. Once I realized I was overcharged, I immediately called the shop and left a message about an hour before closing. No response.Today, an hour after they opened, I went out of my way to stop in and inform them I was overcharged. A different man helping me was SO RUDE. He was unapologetic about the fact that I was overcharged and didnt care that I had to go out of my way to come in, even after leaving a message yesterday. He processed my refund, and when I pointed out that I was taxed on my purchase, he was INCREDIBLY CONDESCENDING. He replied well, tax on $12 would be 20 cents. Do you want me to refund you 20 cents? Not cool. There was a lovely woman employee nearby who DID apologize for my being overcharged, but the man that was supposed to be helping me was a jerk.I really enjoyed their shop and offerings prior to yesterday/today, but am not planning to shop there any longer.

UPDATE 01.05.20: Used to be my goto for olive oil and vinegar, but not sure whats going on now. The few times Ive tried to go recently theyve been closed even though their time listed on Google says they should be open. No signs in the window stating they may be closed for some reason. They dont answer the phone.Love the variety of oils and vinegars and being able to sample and pair before buying. Very friendly and helpful, will def be coming back.

I love this store. It has the most amazing selection of olive oils, vinegars, and two kinds of truffle oil. I am in there every month. I even buy gifts of oils/vinegar for friend when I go to visit. They all love it. I have even been asked to please bring more. One of my mates said every time she uses her oil she thinks nice thoughts of me and Queen Anne. That was such a lovely compliment. They have lots of infused vinegars that make great dressings. The bottles are even cool. The family that runs the store are so nice and helpful. I am glad this store is in my hood.
