I was having some physical problems and feel like it helped heal me in a very real and gentle way. I also really liked the herbal rescue balm for my stretch marks. It felt very soothing and I haven't had as many which is amazing since it's herbal and not made of chemicals. I feel grateful to find a herbal spot run by a local Mexican Woman where things are actually done by her, I've seen her make some products and she's very thorough and sanitary. Along with the fact that all her herbs are organic. I recommend coming in if you're looking for a special quality herbal shop.

We were legitimately excited to check this place out and support a local small business, but…read moreunfortunately had a terrible experience from start to finish. In the end, we paid $60 for merchandise we ended up leaving behind due to the terrible interaction we had with the proprietor. When we first walked in, she was nowhere to be seen. We spent the first five minutes wandering around alone, looking at the products, until she appeared from the back. My friend asked her about her teas and was immediately met with an awkward and abrupt "I'm not a doctor and can't give medical advice." We weren't asking for advice on health conditions; we were asking for some information on the teas she was selling. After a few more awkward exchanges we bought two and left. Five minutes later, two blocks down the street in another store, the proprietor shows up - had tracked us down - to inform us that our two 12-year-old boys had sprayed a couple of the room sprays that hadn't been clearly marked as "testers" even though they were sitting in a row of about 8 other "tester" bottles. She demanded "accountability" and escorted us back to her store, forcing us to buy two of the room sprays that she said had been used. The kids had made an honest mistake, maybe sprayed one spritz by accident from a bottle that didn't have the tester sticker, and now she was delivering a lecture and coercing us into buying two $15 room sprays she said had been touched! So, wanting this whole uncomfortable affair to end, we had the kids apologize and bought the sprays. Half a block down the street, we decided we didn't want to carry any of her bad juju with us, took the bag of products back and left them on the counter. $60 worth of products, down the tube. It was my friend's birthday and this woman had ruined our afternoon. No one should expect to run a thriving small business when you provide obtuse and awkward responses to legitimate product questions and then proceed to hunt paying customers down on the street and demand payment for merchandise that was handled lightly by two CHILDREN. Bad energy, bad customer service. We paid $60 for nothing. We'll never go here again and will tell others not to bother either.

Super friendly staff. They even humored me when I tried to speak Spanish. Great inventory and vast variety for all carnivores! They even have a small grocery section too.

I didn't have time to explore the whole store but will definitely be back for more meat!

The moment we walked in, we were greeted by Tony. He was friendly, energetic, and incredibly helpful. You can immediately tell he's passionate about what he does and genuinely enjoys helping customers find something they'll love. I'm usually not the type to try extremely hot sauces, but Tony was so knowledgeable and enthusiastic that he convinced both my cousin and me to sample several of their sauces. They were absolutely delicious! I ended up leaving with four bottles, including one as a gift for a friend. One of Tony's recommendations was the Fat Cat Strawberry Serrano hot sauce over vanilla ice cream. It sounded unusual, but I gave it a try--and it was surprisingly delicious! If you're visiting Seaport Village, I highly recommend stopping by Hot Licks. Great selection, excellent customer service, and an all-around fun experience thanks to Tony!

Just staring at the walls, I had no clue since I can't handle the heat! The owner was super nice and helpful... I told him that I couldn't handle hot spicy food/sauce... and he told me if I couldn't handle the heat... get out of the kitchen! True! But I never listen and I love the kitchen! :) There are signs along the wall next to the sauces to designate how hot the sauce is. The owner stopped by again and started explaining the ranges of spiciness and flavoring which was super helpful. We ended up picking up a Don Wapo and Lucky Dog. The store has many options other than just bottles of hot sauce that would make great gifts! They have jams and jelly's, salsas, flavored nuts and snacks. Great customer service! Hope my FIL likes them! 2025: 38

The staff will take your order and assign you a table, so do not grab a table without their approval. The seafood all taste fresh. We love the halibut plate with lemon garlic butter. For the fish and chips, the red snapper with panko crust is our family favorite over the beer battered. Tip: we went at 2:30p thinking it is after the lunch rush, but the line was out the door on Sunday. We will stick to 15mins before they open.

I picked my folks up from the airport after their trip to Alaska and my mom was hangry because she…read morehad not eaten since breakfast. I asked her what she wanted and she said, "seafood", so I immediately thought of Blue Water, and we drove right over. We parked at a metered spot nearby & walked in at 5pm. Do note that there is no dedicated parking for Blue Water, so at busy times it may be tricky to find a spot, but we had no trouble today. In the main dining ordering area & on the side patio, there were a few tables that were occupied, but there was no ordering line. All of us wanted shrimp today apparently, so my dad and I both got a shrimp taco with lemon garlic butter & my hungry mom got the shrimp platter also with lemon garlic butter. The platter came with 8 shrimp, jasmine rice, and a lovely, fresh garden salad. The server who took our order and brought it out to us was very helpful & nice. They have a ton of fresh seafood on offer though so if shrimp is not your thing, there will likely be another delightful offering from the sea that will suit your fancy. We sat in the side patio area and it was very pleasant. We enjoyed our experience this evening very much! The tacos were big and had more than 5 shrimp in them, plus cabbage, pico, cheddar cheese & white sauce. One taco was pretty decently sized. If I'd been hungrier, two tacos would've been perfect, but today, I was happy with one taco. Yum! Mom enjoyed her platter. It was beautifully prepared. Blue Water also has a decent soft drink selection and beers and wine, but we all just had their water and it was very refreshing! :) By the time we left at 5:45, a line was forming out the door, so we really came out at a good time. Peace!

Or they have bags of sourdough bread available for dipping. I tried many. Despite the fact I usually do not like dipping in oil etc! These were flavored wonderfully. I like the espresso balsamic vinegar and the strawberry balsamic vinegar. The blueberry was a little too heavy on the blueberry flavor. And the maple wasn't my taste. But the strawberry was a big hit. I bought a bottle of it. The herbs de Provence oil was good and fragrant. And the mushroom & sage oil was surprisingly good as well. I don't even like mushroom! In addition, I tried one of their spicy oils which was also lovely. I think it was green chile? It would be so good on pizza! I think we were in here for a while. Went through 3 snack bags of bread. It was so good and that was basically dinner haha. Highly recommend the place.

We decided to try Lezat Indonesia Kitchen, which turned out to be a ghost kitchen -- a large shared commercial kitchen space used by different chefs rather than a traditional dine-in restaurant.

At the pickup station, we scanned the DoorDash order details, and one of the cubbies automatically opened with our order inside.

I had forgotten how ghost kitchens work, so I didn't order ahead of time. The nasi kuning was good, but there was way too much rice. The same goes for the ayam geprek.

Overall, it's a good option if you're really hungry, but I wouldn't come here for the dining experience.

From the moment I saw their catering menu, I knew the food looked amazing--I just hoped it would live up to my expectations. It absolutely did. Chef Hunter and the team delivered delicious Filipino food with a fun, modern twist, and it was a huge hit with our guests. The verdict was unanimous: pure yumminess! It brought so much joy to our celebration and made the day even more memorable. I'm so grateful for their care, quality, and delicious food. I wouldn't hesitate to use their catering services again and look forward to the next opportunity!

Pleased to stumble upon this food truck on our sunny morning walk in North Park on Saturday. His…read morebright food truck was parked in front of one of our favorite coffee shops. Unfortunately I didn't bring my wallet so I had to drop off Theodore and circle back. We asked how long he would be there and we had roughly an hour to return. I hustled home, grabbed my credit card and high-tailed it back! Since it was still morning I only limited myself to just one food order. I was seriously debating between the pork lumpia and Malasadas. Savory always wins! Ordering and paying was easy peazy lemony squeezey. They are rolled and fried fresh when you order them so I didn't mind the wait at all. He gave me a beeper and told me to wait 5 minutes. $15 dollars for 6 long lumpias. On the menu they are described as jumbo, but the are long not wide. I popped into the coffee shop because they had a feature baker pop-up. I sat down only a few minutes and the beeper buzzed. These pipping hot golden deliciousness was handed to me with the box opened for optimum crispness. They smelled so good but I had discipline to wait until I got home and not burn my mouth. The lumpia were sprinkled with Microgreens and showered in fried garlic which was a very nice touch to elevate the lumpia experience. They were served with the classic sweet chili sauce, a generous amount too. I only needed half and I dipped before every bite. They were more reminiscent of long cigars than the lumpia I'm used to, but very yummy! I'll have to try the chicken adobo next time.
