I just visited Spirited Gourmet today to learn more about a program they participate in called "Too…read moreGood to Go." I was interested in this program as it is geared toward two noble goals: reducing food waste; and addressing food insecurity. I downloaded the app and purchased a "surprise package" online that had a retail value of $13.00 and cost me $4.27. The gentleman behind the food counter knew immediately what I meant when I mentioned the program and gave me my surprise bag containing two baguettes from Iggy's as well as a one pound of fresh, gluten free gnocchi (I had indicated that I was gluten free in the app). All items were within their freshness dates and the gnocchi were excellent. The employee who assisted me was both extremely courteous and knowledgeable about the program. I really want to commend both the Spirited Gourmet for participating in Too Good to Go as well as the program itself. I live in Belmont and because of this experience will certainly frequent this store-I hope you will as well! Thank you, Spirited Gourmet!

Very charming wine and nibbles store!

Besides wine, they also have other alcohol (sake, beer), a ton of cheeses, crackers, everything to assemble your own charcuterie board, including yuzu olive oil! I'll have to come back and try their deli counter, their grilled cheese sandwiches looked amazing.

I noticed they had a deli me and my daughter we were starving so I grabbed what I thought I seen was the Italian combo and men let me say I was very impressed using when you get an Italian it's always messy and kinda ugly looking, but when I opened it, I could not believe how extremely pretty it was and it was a really good amount of meat in it, but I always dread getting an Italian sandwich because it's always so messy, but this sandwich was made very, very pretty and surprisingly I ate 1/2 and could not eat the other very impressed when I go to another appointment I will definitely come back. I do wish they had a softer bread, but this bread wasn't bad.

I always remember the wonderful stories of my Mom running into the famous Julia Child (she's 6 feet tall!!) who was 'French Chef' on WGBH TV to all of the Homemaker cooks de cuisine Française in 1970s America. Thank you and God bless you, Savenor's for lasting so long, and most of all, Chef Julia Child who blessed us mere mortals with the Art of French Cooking! You were a pioneer and role model. My Mom gave me my first cookbook a labor of love co-authored by Julia Child and Simone Beck "Mastering the Art of French Cooking" as a gift. I did at least learn how to prepare a proper omelette, and once, a good Hollandaise! Bon Appétit!

What happened to this place? I haven't been in a while and decided to stop by, and the whole…read moreexperience at this WF is just sad, almost apocalyptic. The lights are dim. The produce is soggy (parsley), brown (romaine lettuce), or molding and straight up rotting (berries). The incredible price markup is just the soggy cherry on top. Feels like the shelf stable stuff is half out, like it was during the pandemic. I could only find one kind of plain old milk chocolate bar in the chocolate section. Organic onions in a different aisle from regular onions, but not so for avocados, leading to confused mendicants wandering about. The stars are for the staff who are the only good and normal part of the place. By the end, I felt as wilted and bewildered as the greens section.
