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.

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!

I must say the food is fresh, but the prices are completely ridiculous for what you get…read more I ordered two swordfish salads, one swordfish sandwich, and one bowl which was basically a cup of their seafood soup for $13 which was four bites for $95, Now let me explain, the pieces of fish looks like they're giving you a lot, but it's maybe 6 ounces that they pound out to the thickness of a piece of paper. So basically, two plates full of salad with five dollars worth of lettuce on either each and five dollars worth of a flat piece of fish for $50. Absurd. What they are charging for fish and what they give you is a total joke don't waste your money.. Will not be coming back here ever. I'm not sure why people come here, but you're paying retail on retail for their fish prices are out of control. They have Faroe island Salman for $28 a pound. I can buy the exact same Salman for $10 a pound. I understand the need to make a profit, but what they are charging for fish is a joke and how much they don't give you.

Cool place we stumbled upon. The woman at the counter introduced us to the many shelves they had:…read morebalsamic vinegars, spicy oils, oils, etc. She said they have complimentary vanilla ice cream if you want to try it with a balsamic vinegar. 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.

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.
