    macapuno-black raspberry-toasted almond - every bite is delicious -
    Geri S.

    Walk through the door to make all your dreams come true; chocolate candies to your left; ice creams to the right! You are in the pin ball machine of delights! We selected the generous triple of macapuno-black raspberry-toasted almond and every bite is a perfect favorite!

    Mint chocolate chip ice cream

    Very cute ice cream spot located in downtown Burlingame. Went in and was allowed to try out some flavors before purchasing. They had gelato and ice cream, as well as other candies and chocolates to purchase and take home.

    Thank you Prestons for making our lives sweeter! I went yesterday with my 2 young kids and Javier greeted us with his wonderful smile as always and we stocked up on Valentine candy (and their Grandpa bought them ice cream!). My kids always love a trip to Preston's- it's our special tradition to mark first and last day of school...and many days in between! We also love to bring a bag of Preston's chocolate to anyone who loves into our neighborhood to welcome them Thank you Preston's I don't know what we would do without you!!

    Was very happy to stumble upon this cute gem in downtown Burlingame! Service was great and so welcoming, offering us as many samples as went wanted. Everything we tried was delicious and even though we were super full from dinner right before, we all had to get ice cream for dessert. I loved how classic the shop looked and it's old school feel. They also sell candy and chocolates in the other display cases and it all looked really good. I know I'll be back again!

    Almond toffee crunch
    Loralei P.

    Was a nice mom and pop ice cream shop, the owner and his daughter was there working the counter and the ice cream samples are a must. I hot the almond toffee crunch on a wafle cone and dipped in chocolate, delicious and nostalgic, will bring you back to your childhood. They also had a lot of hand made chocolates and fudge. The store is a little outdated, but it adds to the nostalgia.

    Sundae

    A cute spot! We visited on a quiet Thursday night and had the place practically to ourselves. It has that dated, old-school candy store feel that makes you nostalgic. Service was very kind! I was impressed by the wide array of ice cream flavors and the selection of chocolates and sweets. I went with a sundae, which was fun but not particularly memorable. The ice cream itself was solid, but the whole thing was a bit overwhelmed by sauce- I would've loved a better balance and a few more nuts for some crunch! Still, it's a fun stop if you're in the mood for a treat. I would probably come back to try a few more flavors or pick up some of the candy next time.

    Strawberry cheesecake gelato

    We were making our way back from SF on a super hot day and I wanted a quick ice cream fix before heading home. I found this on the map and decided to give it a try and we loved it!! It's a cute little shop in an adorable complex, all good vibes. We sampled a few and went with the strawberry cheesecake gelato and chocolate marble. They were soo sweet and yummy and satisfied my craving. Service was great too and all the staff were so sweet!

    Pretty cool old-timey ice cream shop in old Burlingame. Overall, really wanted to like this place but it's right on the line of feeling dated versus cool/retro. Lots of ice cream options. A ton of prepared candies as well, but it seems like our ice cream may have been in the freezer for too long (stale-tasting) and they were out of the basics like chocolate. Pretty attentive guy working there, but ultimately nothing special.

    I was walking by and found this nice candy and ice cream shop. Got a scoop of rocky road . Very good ice cream and nice people.

    On national ice cream day, I showed up 5 minutes before they closed to get a scoop and they already had closed sign. Have some pride!

    Local business & makes their own candy. It is quality candy, but kind of expensive. Display of the candy & ice cream appears antiquated.

We ended up going to Burlingame that same day so I could try it out for myself. Metered street parking at and located in downtown Burlingame, Del' Oliva is quaint and offers gourmet olive oils and vinegars. Their products are fresh and their customer service is top tier. Immediately welcomed upon entering by the owners and shared with us a few samples and combinations of extra virgin olive oils and balsamic vinegars on tap. You can taste the fruits in their vinegars. Fantastic variations that would elevate your dishes. I picked up a lime infused olive oil and pear white balsamic vinegar. Overall, would recommend checking out for all foodies and home cooks!

The owner took his time to ask about our needs and preferences and gave us a few tastings of things he thought we would like and everything he gave us was spot on. I came in wanting to get one bottle of olive oil but ended up with 3 olive oils and 1 balsamic and I have no regrets. I had my two kids with me as well and he was very kind to them, giving them cookie samples and making them an olive/balsamic blend that tasted just like raspberry chocolate which they loved. Definitely a place to come to for your olive oil needs!
