This sweet little liquor is located just across the avenue from Ventura College. Every time I…read morevisit, I think, man, I wish there would have been a cool little liquor store across the street from me when I was in college. When I did my undergrad work there were no places to buy booze anywhere near campus. Students at VC have it made. If they find themselves in a boring class they can duck out the back, walk over and get a beer, and be back in class before the professor even noticed they were gone. School is infinitely more interesting when you have a good buzz. And you know, this store is about a lot more than just booze. They sell all kinds of items here. It's sort of like a mini mart. I love perusing the aisles. If you are like me and love playing with fire, this place has you covered. They sell Bic Lighters, DuraFlame logs, and two kinds of Kingsford briquettes. Just remember what ol' Billy Joel said, "The closer you get to the fire, the more you get burned. But that won't happen to us." If you need toilet paper to TP someone's house, they sell Kirkland brand. If you need it for bathroom purposes, they sell the good stuff, Charmin. You'll be happy to know they don't enforce Charmin's 'No Squeeze" policy. They sell Kleenex too, the Ultra Soft kind. If you are planning on killing someone, they have everything you will need to clean up the murder scene. They sell Pine Sol, Clorox Bleach and paper towels. Bloody hands and clothes? Don't worry, they have Dove, Dial and Irish Spring hand soap, as well as laundry detergent. I'm not really sure how they justify the "Deli" part of their name. They have a lot of food products, but this is no delicatessen in the traditional sense of the word. But they do sell Top Ramen, though, so there's that. And canned meats. Man, they've got a big selection canned meat: Spam, Jamonilla, two kinds of Corned Beef, Albacore tuna, Boneless Ham, and Pulled Pork. Move over, Arby's! Other canned food items include: La Costeña sliced jalapenos, Rosarita Refried Beans, 2 kinds of Chili (Dennison's and Stagg), Hormel Tamales, Sun Vista Pinto Beans and Chef Boyardee Beef Ravioli. They have S&W Organic Black Beans, and Organic Garbanzo Beans, and Del Monte Whole Kernel Corn and Cut Green Beans. Plus they have a selection of Progresso and also Campbell's soups including Chicken Noodle and Cream of Mushroom. And they have canned organic mushrooms too. Button mushrooms only though, no psychedelics. If you are visiting from Northern California, you'll feel right at home when you see they carry Rice-A-Roni, the San Francisco Treat. If you lucky enough to have a Hot Date, you can find a lot of personal care items here, including Shaving Gel, Shampoo, Deodorant and prophylactics. If you are of the female persuasion, you'll be happy to know they also sell Feminine Hygiene products. If your Date is Less Than Hot, don't even worry dog, they have just about every kind of alcohol you could imagine. They'll definitely have something to get you through it. My advice, check out the Margarita fixin's. They've got a really nice variety. If you are so socially awkward you can't even manage to get a damn Date, you'll be relieved to discover they have a surprisingly large selection of soft core porn. If you are a little kid, or just an immature adult like me, you'll appreciate the candy aisle here. Real nice selection of candy, mints and gum. You need some Big League Chew bubblegum? They've got it. But the thing I like most about this store is it is a Lucky Lotto retailer. I always try to buy my Scratchers and Lotto tickets here.

I love supporting local businesses and this is not exception. Despite not being a regular, I was always greeted with a smile and friendly conversation. It can't be easy competing with larger stores, but this location has kept a strong following based on their service and reasonable prices. I always got lotto tickets here hoping to hit the big one and this store getting credit. Today I learned that one of the regular employees who has been there forever passed away. RIP.

I love smashburgers and I was excited to find another eatery near my work as restaurants are pretty limited on this side of town. They were a little behind schedule opening but went ahead and took my order shortly after 12. At that point there were a handful of other people waiting and I was the first to put my order through. I opted for the double smash burger without pickles and the cheese sauce on the side. The lady who took my order was very friendly and a few minutes after ordering, handed me one of those buzzers that will go off when my order is ready. She let me know it would be a little bit because of the fries...I had no issue with that, however, it was NOT "a little bit." It was THIRTY SEVEN minutes from the time I paid to when my order was ready. Almost my entire lunch break was gone by the time I got back to work. I feel it was wrong not to tell me up front before I paid that it was going to be over half an hour wait. There also wasn't really much acknowledgement of how long the wait was when I picked up my order. I would have gone somewhere else had I known that it would be such a long wait. Once I finally got back to work to eat my food, I definitely enjoyed the burger. The grilled onions were a nice touch and it was flavorful. I found myself craving a nice piece of crisp lettuce though...it would have made it much better. The fries unfortunately, were horrible. They were so overly fried and greasy I had two and threw out the rest. I have never done that before and the fact that I waited 37 minutes for those fries made it sting even more. It also wasn't cheap at $18 for the burger and fries. I have never had french fries before with that kind of fried texture...it was very strange to me. I would come back for the smash burger if they made it an option to order without the fries. Maybe some people like their fries like this but I just couldn't stomach them.

The guy then tried to scan it, it didn't scan because its barcodes aren't for buying lottery tickets. He then asks me for my age, I say I'm 18 and I show him my birthday on the back of the ID. He then proceeds to tell me it's fake again and he can't sell me one unless if I have a real ID or drivers license. I've been to several places and boughten countless lottery tickets and never have gotten denied because my military ID is 'fake'. Won't be going here again and will be reporting.

I urge you to take your business elsewhere until they either comply with the county mandate or get shut down. I just filed a complaint with the county so they are aware of this store's inaction.
