    Freaking love this place! So hard finding a place that has something to do for pregnant people . Took Husbie here for his bday ! It was such a beautiful day & the place was breathtaking. Love that you have a beautiful view overlooking nature and the pond . The service here was great ! Chris was super helpful & gave us the best service . He made our visit amazing & really enjoyed our conversations with him. We did the honey and cheese tasting $45. The cheeses were so good & the honey paired nicely with the Chevre & Brie. We also did the gelato & olive oil tasting $35 which is a must since it was super warm . They were paired with 3 olive oils . My favorite wasnthe Chai. We also did the non alcoholic tasting $22 which came with 2 Rose's & 2 shrubs of your choice . I wasn't a big fan of she shrubs since they tasted like Kombucha to me but i loved the Rose's . My absolute favorite . I will come back again since I really enjoyed our time here. Such a gem of a place.

    We found some cute chairs for little people

    LOVE visiting McEvoy Ranch when in wine country, it can even be a destination. This is almost a sanctuary for us that we share with friends and family after my cousin stumbled upon it and we went to explore one afternoon. We visit Petaluma often and always make a point to make a trip out to the ranch to pick up some great olive oil and enjoy an afternoon away from the rush of the real world. It is extremely gorgeous and peaceful here, the food is always impeccable, the tastings are unique and the service is wonderful. Must book a reservation for any tasting or lunch (48 hours in advance) unless you are just doing a quick boutique stop for some olive oil, incredible choices for cheese, Salumi, tapenades, skincare or wine. I have been such a fan of McEvoy Ranch since they had a storefront at The Ferry Building in SF. Love all their EVOO, the wine stop pourers, and their Verde line of moisturizers is divine.

    Huge olive farm with beautiful outdoor seating - serving food, wine and olive oil pairings. We had the gelato with olive oil pairing on a warm autumn day - perfection! And yes, we had wine also

    We went here for our team building and i love everything about it! First the ranch is just so breezy, breathtaking and beautiful! We did breath work in a very beautiful pagoda! The details of the architecture was so thorough and well thought out! There is a giant garden that houses about 5,000 flowers! There is another room with Elton John's red piano signed by him! After our breath work, we felt restored and refreshed and we had our olive oil tasting and wine tasting! The olive oil selection were all amazing! I love the citrus infused one! We had sparkling rose and pinot noir and both are very good! We also went to the shop to buy something for home and I got the olive oil lotion. Its smooth and creamy on the hands! The staff assigned to us is amazing! She is very helpful and accommodating! Cant wait to go back with my girls and try their long dinner service at night!

    Service went well! Beautiful place to visit! Bought some wine and oil. Unfortunately went on a Tuesday and they were closed for a tasting. Fortunately they attended us at their store even though, due to an appointment they had. Got to walk around a bit. Lovely place. Will return for a tasting and tour.

    Beautiful pastoral location!!!! It feels like a different world than city life. We came during January, which is a slower time of year, and so we didn't need a reservation nor was it busy. The wine is wonderful, but the olive is the BEST anywhere. The customer service was relaxed and friendly. The gift store has my favorite ODE products I order online. The face oil is the best on the market.

    This olive oil ranch is worth going to located right outside of Petaluma it has history, art , gardens architectural beauty and wonderful olive oil and wines. My friend was celebrating her birthday . She has discriminating taste and took us to this beautiful place. We had a great tour guide she knew a lot about art, history , wine, olive oil and about some of the plants. It had a great outside area that you could taste olive oil and wine. It is a worthwhile stop if you're in the area.

    What a find! I was recommended to come here by a friend and was blown away! It's a bit of a drive out of Petaluma but gorgeous drive. All outdoor seating with fire pits and adirondack chairs that made it relaxing, with stunning views of the pond and surrounding hills. We ordered the valentines special tasting menu and loved the small bowls of multiple bites - the pot de creme was the best! We also did a wine tasting and enjoyed their reds, as well as the rose they greeted us with. And I loved the shop inside where you pay! Wine, bath products, specialty food items, Id come back just for the shop! I've told many people about this place already and I can't wait to come back.

    My husband and I enjoyed a wonderful tour and olive oil tasting at McEvoy's this week. Our tour guide was very engaging and we learned about the incredible life that Nan, the ranch's founder, had. The property is beautiful and the product is fantastic. The service for the tasting was impeccable. We enjoyed every part of it. Highly recommend!

    Had a lovely lunch with an incredible view at McEvoy Ranch today. We tasted a flight of olive oils and wines with our delicious entrees. Our server, JoJo, was fantastic. She explained the history of the property and where all of the locally sourced ingredients came from. What a special day! Reserve in advanced for an exceptional experience.

    We came and did the olive oil tasting and had such a great time. What a hidden gem! Views, staff, and olive oil was all amazing. Dog friendly outside and the shop has so many great products/gifts. Can't wait to come back!

    Lavender, dahlias and food!

    What a fantastic experience. Whoever thought of pairing olive oils and gelato is a flat out genius. Always good to try new things, especially in such a beautifully serene place. Wish I could give more than 5 stars!

    What a spread!

    The location is beautiful! So picturesque. Mike gave us a fantastic tour-- so much interesting history behind the family owners, so many interesting elements including how olive oil is harvested and manufactured--not your average tour. Emily was a super star -- was welcoming and accommodating to our group like no other location in wine country. Winery tours are a dime a dozen. This tour, in contrast, plus wine plus olive oil tasting was a great combination--truly unique.

    Great service although the wine isn't good at all. It's a pleasant place to spend time but the wine doesn't compare to other producers.

It is easily one of the most unique tasting experiences I've experienced in my life. If you thought you knew olive oil, think again! My wife and I stopped by on a Monday afternoon and we were thoroughly impressed with how many different types of flavored olive oils and balsamic vinegars were freely available for visitors to try out in the shop. As we worked our way through the store, we stumbled upon an olive oil tasting flyer. Curious about how we could sign up for the tasting, we asked the staff member at the desk and found out they were done with tastings for the day: we'd have to come back tomorrow when more staff were available. Lucky for us, we had plans to stay another day in Sonoma: we signed up right away for the olive oil tastings the next day at 11:00 a.m. When we showed up the next day for our tasting, we were brought to the back room with a staff member. She was friendly, personable, and extremely knowledgeable and organized walking us through the olive oil production process. For each of the olive oils and balsamic vinegars we tried, they were described in meticulous details: from how they were made, what we should be looking for as we tasted them, as well as the chemical composition. Near the end of the tasting, we were also guided to mix different infused olive oils with flavored balsamic vinegars to change things up. This was my favorite part of the whole experience. If you're like me, you'll walk out from the tasting wanting to buy 10 bottles. 10/10 would recommend this experience if you're passing through Sonoma.

For me I like to make one of the best tofu and mushrooms spaghetti you ever had and it can be with ingredients from Safeway or the cornerstore market. There is one place in San Francisco which has all the essentials when it comes to making a great spaghetti like mine and other pastas. This place has spaghetti noodles imported from Italy , pasta sauce, oregano and sea salt like some in SF. What makes this place different is all the locally sourced olive oils they have available to make the pasta dishes and use the olive oil to cook almost any dish you wish. This place is located on Vicksburg and 24th street in San Francisco and it's called Olive This Olive That. On the last day of April stroll in Noe Valley I landed inside Olive This Olive That. Once inside you will find lots of bottles of Extra Virgin Olive Oil and lots of types of artisanal balsamic vinegars . You can find different salts like the lemon salt, habanero salt, and kimchi salt. They have lots of different types of chili oils. You will also find lots of pasta sauces along with pasta noodles. They also sell Rize Up sourdough breads like Original (OG), Jalapeno Bacon Cheddar, Everything Seasoning along with the Original (OG), Ube ( purple bread), Garlic Confit Thyme, Sesame Hoagie Baguettes. They also hold tasting and cooking classes . Olive This Olive That is all that. Make a meal and break bread and bring out the bottle of" olive oil" and talk about the joys of life along with the "turmoil" and make a meal and grab some pasta and put some water to "boil "they say there are no kings but my dinner feasts are "royal" Come where pasta and noodles are sold and"bought" learn how to cook like Don Juan's spaghetti which is special and something that is privately "taught "if you don't follow the recipe because you got too cheesy and salty and added too much cheese and " salt" don't blame me in SF because it's all your "fault"
