I recently became the Team Dad of my Sons football team, Fund raising and End of Season party were all apart of the duties.. Realizing our league was not including Particiapation trophies, I needed 26 Tackle football Trophies, 7 Cheerleader Trophies and 6 Coach type Awards etc.. We also went a step further and ordered Medallions for individual Excellence in 20 Categories. I was recommended to reach out to Steve Zambel of Awards and Specialties. Steve was awesome, super knowledgable he knew exactly what I wanted and the final products exceeded my Expectations... which almost never happens.. All coming in under Budget.. Steve also was gracious enough to fix a couple naming errors that were my mistakes. Everything came in weeks before I needed it and looked amazing.. So if you are in need of any type of Trophy, Plaque, Award etc... regardless if its sports related or not... and are in the Riverside CA area by all means... Reach out to Steve Z. He will make it happen....!! read more

I can't say enough good things about this place. We came in needing a memorial dedication plaque for my brother completed within a few days, a tight turnaround for something so meaningful, and Steve delivered without question. Through multiple revisions (our fault, not his!), he was patient, kind, and never made us feel like a burden. He fixed every mistake without hesitation and made sure everything was perfect before it was done. That kind of service is rare and truly appreciated, especially when you're dealing with something so personal. The shop itself has a huge variety of options. Whether you're shopping for personal keepsakes or business needs, they've got you covered. We will definitely be returning customers for both. Highly recommend! read more

My father is a retired Air Force Colonel who is also a Pearl Harbor survivor. I took all of his medals and ribbons to Steve and asked him to make me a shadow box for them. In talking to him I felt very comfortable leaving these valuable possessions with him. I could tell he had experience and knowledge needed to create a custom box for me. The final product was better than I imagined. It was done when promised and the price was more than fair. I have purchased engraved items from his business in the past. I would not hesitate to recommend him for any task that requires specialty care whether I gracing or framing. Thank you Steve. You're awesome! read more

The folks at Awards and Specialties did an amazing job on some car club recognition plaques. I am new to the area and state so I used Google as my phone list. I had made many calls to different companies. I only found 1 that treated me like gold and was able to meet my strict deadline which was A&S. I made a last minute order for a few special artwork plaques that had a 2 day deadline. Steve was able to get them done within 1.5 business days and they came out perfect not to mention the superior customer service. I strongly recommend Awards and Specialties for any of your awards and or specialty needs. Thank You read more

This business was referred to me by a friend and Since day one has been wonderful, I've ordered 3 different awards and 3 badges so far and its been flawless work. best of all FOR ME is that I was able to save my card in there system and I can have anyone pick up, once picked up I get an email confirmation then they can charge. to me this is a huge deal, I'm way to busy to make the drive and pick up. I can send anyone for that without giving them cash or card to pay, my purchases are linked to my account. love it, and customer service is nothing but the best. read more

The team at Awards & Specialties deserve an award! Its our third year in a row using them for our company awards of recognition, and they consistently produce a great product with exceptional customer service!! If you are planning an event, or have a large award order - you are going to want to send it to these guys. Even when I caught a last name spelling error less than a week before my event, they were able to expedite a re-print for me and save the day!! (To clarify, I spelled the name wrong, not them) Thanks again A&S, see you next November! read more

Couldn't ask for a better place to get awards or desk plaques done. Thank you Awards and Specialties for the amazing job. You made my boss happy on his way out to his new unit! read more

Very grateful I found this place......I'm a general contractor and while on a Tenant Improvement job, one of our guys accidently knocked over an Award made out of glass, very classy award. The customer was sad and I knew I would have to make it right, so I went to A&S and they were able to replace it in matter of days. Looked exactly the same, took back to client and they were Super Happy.....Steven and Staff Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! read more
