The packaging was attractive and enticing, and they looked like they would be delicious, but one bite, and they were awful! They tasted old, and flavorless! They were $17 a bag, and simply not worth it. I only wish that they had had samples before I bought them. Oh, well. Never again. 3/5

Heart of the Desert Pistachios & Wine - Came for Pistachios, Left with Wine…read more We stopped here with a simple mission: grab a few bags of pistachios as gifts for friends back home. Easy, right? Well... not quite. The store itself is quaint and charming, filled with all kinds of temptations. Pistachios in every form, chocolates, wines, and gift options that make you rethink your original plan. You can taste a little of everything, which is both delightful and dangerous. Then we stepped out onto the patio with our pistachio ice cream, and wow... completely unexpected. The space is gorgeous. Calm, open, and the kind of place that makes you slow down without even trying. Honestly, if I lived nearby, I'd be planning celebrations here without a second thought. Somewhere between the views and the tasting, I tried their pistachio rosé. And yes, I had the same reaction, "wait... what?" But it worked. Different, pleasant, and surprisingly good. Good enough that I completely abandoned my pistachio gift plan and walked out with several bottles instead. A much more unique surprise. The staff were warm and welcoming, adding to the whole experience. No rush, no pressure, just genuine friendliness. We didn't have as much time as I would have liked, and that's probably the only downside. This is the kind of place where you want to linger longer, taste more, and just enjoy the moment. Came for pistachios. Left with wine and zero regrets.

How about those shiny floors everywhere! It's not just about amazing pistachios (though they're so good )--it's about the passion and purpose that go into everything you do. It's rare to see that level of care, and it made the visit truly special. The inviting patio to sip on wine amongst the carefully pruned trees was a bonus Grateful for such an inspiring experience, especially Melissia and Sabrine. #SupportLocal #SustainableFarming #Gratitude

Disappointing meal on this visit…read more We have been here multiple times, and usually order the same things. I have previous 5* reviews here. I'm hoping tonight was an off night. The insalata paolo was half the size it normally had been. It's supposed to be a salad for 2, tonight it was a salad for 1. The salmon pasta was plain, the salmon was raw, and seemed to be deep fried. We sent it back, and after a long wait we got another piece of oily deep fried salmon that was raw on the inside. The focaccia bread served with the pasta was rock hard and stale. We gave up and checked out. The server seemed busy and rushed, but was nice enough to take the salmon off the bill.

Whole Foods Market is probably the closest thing El Paso has to a foodie gourmet playground…read more Fantastic organic produce, an excellent seafood and meat selection, a great bakery, and dangerously good prepared foods. On Fridays, twelve oysters for $12 -- that is hard to beat. The seafood department is by far the best in El Paso, with beautiful fresh Chilean sea bass and salmon. A true paradise for at-home chefs like me. Another great "Friday Deals" promotion, typically includes discounted large pizzas for Amazon Prime members -- often around $8-$12 depending on the topping. This makes the store feel almost like a gourmet happy hour destination!!! The store is also impeccably clean, well organized, and the perfect destination whether you love cooking or are preparing a dinner party. Yes, prices can feel a little "Whole Paycheck," but the quality is consistently outstanding. What really elevates the experience is the customer service. Staff members are knowledgeable, friendly and attentive, especially Iker in the seafood section, who consistently provides excellent recommendations and service.

We ordered the following: -fettuccine Alfredo, delicious and so creamy -cheese raviolis, love the marinara -green chili lasagna, my partner really like it (has meat) -house salad The complimentary bread is so soft and warm. So many vegetarian options! Pet friendly patio. Service was very friendly and quick. No servers here, but you don't need it. Just order at the counter and pick a seat. There is also plenty of seating inside and out. So glad I skipped out on the other big box Italian chain for this.

You order at the register and then, if dining in, go seat yourself. You also need to grab your own tableware. Had the sausage & pepper with spaghetti. Sauce is a bit loose and needs garlic and basil. Just something more than tomato flavor. Pasta was overdone for being an Italian restaurant. Came with a small piece of plain bread. No garlic or olive oil at table, so that was disappointing as well. We also got the combo pizza. Crust needs to be cooked more in the center. Good amount of cheese and alot of mushrooms. The outside of crust had good flavor. Will stick with Lorenzo's in town, but I did feel obligated to try this place, as an Italian myself.

We came on a Friday night & waited about 20minutes! Ambiance inside is lovely, nice (not working) fountain as well as paintings on the ceiling & nice vibe. Service was nice & friendly.

The bread that comes with the food is also lovely. I had the house salad which was good but I also really love the chef salad. Prices are fair! Nice date night spot in las cruces

I had a friend dinner to attend with my partner and upon arrival I was surprised to see that a steakhouse resided within. This two story restaurant has a main dining floor and bar on the first floor and a semi-private balcony/event space on the second floor. The staff here is super attentive and I really enjoyed the dimly lit environment. Hearing live vocals from a vocalist was such a nice touch and really made it feel so romantic. Garufa's menu features different cuts of steak, pastas, empanadas, salads, sides, and a few small bites. Their empanadas are so freaking delicious (a bit pricey) and arrive cut up in halves. Their signature cheese empanada was super scrumptious and the crust was flaky with each bite feeling airy. My partner and I shared the alfredo pasta with their freshly made alfredo sauce and pasta, one of their steaks (16oz but can't recall the cut), and a few of their sides. WOW - everything was so dang good and I honestly could've get enough of the mashed potatoes and sauteed mushrooms. I wish they had a few zero proof cocktails but perhaps that'll change by the next time I go back. All in all everything was super good and I had a great time!

I ordered the Farfalle Bella Sera with shrimp and no chicken, lobster bisque came with it and I ordered 6 slices of their garlic toast, TO GO. Let me TELL YA, this food was piping hot when I picked it up. The garlic toast slices paired so well with the lobster bisque, I called my girlfriend and told her I fainted of a food orgasm. I obliterated the garlic toast slices and lobster bisque BEFORE I opened my pasta. Absolutely amazing. Now comes the Farfalle - the sauce was so perfectly seasoned, I can't even tell you how delicious that first bite was. The actual pasta, was so perfectly cooked, I couldn't believe it. What they don't tell you, is that they include a small loaf of bread that's sliced for dipping - you can bet your butt, those piece of bread surfed throughout my pasta engulfment. The shrimp was so tender and delicious, I couldn't stop eating. I saved 2 pieces of bread to surf the tsunami of deliciousness of the leftover sauce after the pasta poofed from container into my stomach. All in all, I am so glad I took it to go because if I had to eat there, they would've either had to put me on a dolly to roll me out, or I would've had to roll myself out. I couldn't move after I ate the entire meal. It was so unbelievably fantastic, I highly recommend you come here and tell them that BOB sent you - from YELP.
