For a…read moresmall neighborhood spot, they carry an amazing wine selection, way more impressive than you'd expect. Along with that, they've got all the everyday essentials you'd need, which makes it super convenient to swing by instead of running to a big box store. What really stands out is the guy running the store, Stan. He's incredibly friendly, attentive, and open to suggestions. It feels like they genuinely care about stocking what the community wants, and that kind of responsiveness is rare. If you're looking for a go-to place for sake, wine, spirits, or just a reliable neighborhood shop, this is it. Definitely worth supporting, especially since they're a local small business that's truly putting in the effort. Highly recommend stopping by!

Stan, the owner, is a true wealth of knowledge. I was introduced to Villa Market & Wine Café by a…read moregood friend, and I've been coming back ever since. Whether I'm looking for a great bottle of whiskey or wine for myself or picking out the perfect gift, Stan's recommendations have been consistently spot-on. You can tell he genuinely cares about what he offers and takes the time to match you with something you'll enjoy. Every experience has been excellent, and I'll definitely be back.

After flagging down someone to get an answer I found it was through the regular checkout line. Unfortunately that meant I needed to wait in the long checkout line and I was wanting to make a purchase as well so that would mean waiting twice in that line. Thankfully one of their self checkouts was functional so that made the checkout a bit easier.

That's long enough to get a good picture of their overall professionalism, work ethic, ability to multitask, keep store clean and stocked, more recently - they quickly 100% met Covid protocols, ... you get the picture. This store has never been a disappointment?! Some at the pharmacy have come to know me, ask about my family while the younger crew does not. Yet all provide friendly, accurate, patient service all the time. The store has an amazing selection and well stocked so you can honestly get grocery essentials, pick up a gift and wrapping, any OTC meds, RXs, and let's not forget the delicious ice cream - in one trip! What's not to love?!

I was cycling on the Peter's Canyon River Trail from Back Bay heading to Portola on a 85 degree day…read morelast weekend, mile 30 and I was out of liquid--totally parched. This place is right off the trail. Popped in here because my friend from France Pierre said the best cycling recovery drink is Perrier! And it's also my favorite drink! And guess what? They have it here! I got the Perrier Lime. (Wished they still had the lemon one.) But here you have to pay the price for that level of recovery all the way from France on a hot day on the trail in Irvine: $2.63 Worth every penny! I powered it back to my car 8 more miles. They have ample polls to lock up your bike outside and you better do so! There were some suspicious people hanging outside smoking who I later saw pushing shopping carts from Ralphs on the trail. One guy was pushing a bicycle--don't let that be yours. Irvine today is not the Irvine of 10 years ago! Lock up! Anyway on the receipt it says "7-Eleven". But it does not say 7-Eleven on the front. It just says Food Mart. But as long as they have Cold Perrier they can call themselves anything--I don't care. Employees here were friendly and wished me well. It's also a Shell gas station--a brand I do not use.

To the staff working here: customers should never be touched under any circumstances. During my…read morevisit, I experienced an invasion of personal space that made me uncomfortable and felt unnecessary and intimidating. I made it clear after that I did not want to be touched, and that boundary should not need to be stated at all. I was simply trying to make my purchase and leave, not deal with behavior that crossed professional boundaries. Customer service should be respectful and focused on assisting shoppers, not creating discomfort. After reading other reviews mentioning rudeness, inappropriate behavior, and similar issues, it seems this may be a pattern. Management seriously needs to address staff conduct and training, because this type of behavior is unacceptable in any establishment.
