I would describe this botanica as having an assortment of old and new. By this I mean that they…read morehave quite a few of your classic plaster statues of Catholic saints and spirits used in Espiritismo but they also have a selection of resin statues that are more common today. In addition to statues, they also have a decent selection of votive candles along with oils and incense. As far as items in the Santeria tradition, I was only able to see a selection of elekes but I didn't see any other items. I could be mistaken so it might be a good idea to call ahead if you need a cauldron or any other hard-to-find items. The herb selection was not as abundant but there were enough to meet most needs. The woman that worked there was very friendly and approachable. Definitely worth checking out if you're in the area.

I called to see if they had certain candles and they were really good with helping me out. I was…read moreable to get my order curbside with no problem and they wore a mask. I know quite a few people that have gone to this business of different races and everyone has nothing but good things to say. As far as their knowledge on candles, saints and other items, they were very knowledgeable. I read a review on here that said otherwise and that is really hard to believe. These are good people with over 30 years years of experience and are very good at what they do. Please take the time to visit this business and you will also be impressed with their kindness and excellent service. I am a regular.

Nice local "catholic bookstore." Reasonable prices…read more Definitely more than Catholic books. Catholic Gifts, and cards and Prayer cards etc. When I need mass cards i try to come here. Unfortunately their hrs are listed wrong on Apple, and yelp. This has lead me to many "not open" visits. I mentioned it to the employee, who mentioned it to her manager, who basically shrugged it off. Thus the door photo. (I asked the employee if the times were correct. She said they were.)

They'd rather sacrifice YOUR SAFETY than THEIR DONATIONS. I wouldn't trust the website or phones either. PLUS the addresses on the shit they send in the mail, DO NOT MATCH the address where they want you to send your MONEY! And they made the "Saint" one that so many "can relate to," with love for flowers, nature, family, and pets! Hmm.. they left out chocolate! Hope they know that karma exists whether they believe in it or NOT. Stay safe and have a blessed holiday season.

The owner is a fully initiated and well-respected member of the Santeria community. The store is…read moretiny but filled with many items needed for many rituals. If you need any hard-to-get items, she can probably get them for you. I speak from experience :-) This store has been closed a few times that I have wanted to stop by but if you call her ahead of time, she will be there. Once even after hours. She is available via e-mail: alicechiprez@yahoo.com or cell: (773) 510-8453 Very flexible!

Very reasonable prices. The incense sold in jars, is very similar to church incense, which can be burned in home or a cemetery as in Greek tradition.

Rachel was incredibly pushy to have me spend more so I ended up getting a card reading. She then tells me my energy is all over the place, my family has been cursed for years and insisted I needed to buy multiple $100 CANDLES so she can make everything right in my life. The next day, Rachel calls me and asks if I can order her something on UberEats because her hands are full with her kids... a complete scammer.
