5 stars!!! A++++++ this store offers a taste of rare, exclusive, high quality, and high end items! ....with only $1 more mark up than Costco.
We customers and clients couldn't be more happier with this much upgraded store. It's really lovely to have a place like this in the neighborhood without having to drive far to get high quality, rare, and must try items.
I'm going to also respond to a review posted from someone who wrote a negative review. Sometimes people complain just to complain.
She is completely entitled to her opinion. ...but I find it completely confusing and quite strange why a person would be complaining about a store being upgraded with high quality and high end products. She commented she was actually wishing for our fabulous neighborhood store to be downgraded to a mini mart that it used to be. Super Strange. If you are looking for $1 coffee, a slurpe and $.50 hot dogs, then I guess it's not for them. No,This isn't a 7-11. If calling the highest quality of rare exclusive products bougie, then I would question their standards and confused as to why they why wouldn't want that. Never heard of a downgrade being desired. Fortunately there is no shortage of the happiest customers and local clientele that do love and support this small OC nugget. It's a great fit of luxury items, and affordable to all sizes of wallets. Sometimes clients prefer a $25 bottle of wine and chocolate from Italy, sometimes we want Cristal and fresh Spanish Jamon flown in directly from Spain, etc.. If bougie isn't in your style or budget for you, that's ok. ... and Fun fact.... There is a 7-11 and a Costco only 6 miles away.
And tell me why a great selection of fabulous selections of rare exclusive wines, etc.. be a problem. You can easily find tons of non alcoholic items, as well. Listen ... stores carry what sells and customers are actually buying. I would like to remind her, the only reason frank moved was because of the lack of support you and others were not giving him. So you liked having the convenience store idea to upgrade you value of home but conveniently didn't spend enough of those useful items you claim to need. Sad really.
If those items you wanted aren't in the store now then they obviously weren't selling to begin with and/or you or people weren't buying enough to make it worth carrying. Vendors don't bring 1 item, they bring 100's of each. Like people saying I want lettuce, ok.. are you buying the 100 heads of lettuce that only last for 3 days then spoils on shelves? poor frank did everything few people wanted and still they did not support only complain. How many cups of $1 coffee did you buy off frank and yet, ONLY bought the $1 coffee. Now you a nice affordable latte? I'm also not wanting the spaghetti O's aisle, I love the aisles with the special luxury items from France, Italy, Japan, Spain,
In my experience there are always the people like to complain and/or suggest items but then only buy like 0-1 item and most often these are the ones never to be seen again or get upset that they are not back on the shelf because the store owner was stuck with the items you wanted but not purchasing.
I love this place! WE love this place.
In fact, This is only just 1 of our fabulous luxury Charcuterie board of happiness from there. We enjoyed every single delicious item.
In this photo - Cristal Champagne, jack daniels 150 anniversary whiskey, Caviar, exclusive Jamon meat flown in straight from Spain, chocolates from Italy, France, and Columbia, truffle and caviar chips, crème fraise, different cuts of Spanish meats. Japanese strawberries and raspberries straight from Japan, etc.. a luxurious charcuterie.
And sometimes we just get ice cream, frozen pizza, protein drinks and bars, etc.
Try it you'll like it. read more
