The market is a step back in time to my childhood reminding me of the Italian Nanna down the street who baked fresh bread and pastries that you'd never find in a store. Their sandwiches and salads are filled with flavor and generous portions. The Italian sausage is beyond delicious! The service is outstanding. I have yet to try the ready made take home meals, however they do look scrumptious. As new resident in town I will continue to support this family owned business and my taste buds will thank me for it!

This is a very clean, unassuming shop that clearly is focused on their customer and their craft. Everything on the menu sounded appealing and I was happy to have some locals around to share their favorites and narrow it down for me. I loved every soup of the day that I had, loved every sandwich/wrap that I tried, and I found myself wanting to try something new in town but being unable to. I had to come back day after day. This is a great place that I plan to revisit anytime I'm in town.

The reviews on YELP were positive for The Mustard Seed, so we had to check it out for ourselves. First impression was that I LOVED the smell of the store. It smelled like patchouli, sandalwood, and palo santo. I liked the variety of vitamins and other natural products in the store, including their selection of spices and herbs. The cafe is located in the back with seating inside and outside. My husband ordered the Harvest Salad and a soup and I had the Tuna Salad on a wrap with soup. Both of our meals were excellent and what we wanted for a healthy lunch. The Thai soup was flavorful and delicious, the tuna salad was light and fresh, and the harvest salad was fresh and the mix of the Gorgonzola cheese with the apples was very good. Highly recommend if you're passing through this area!
