Monday, August 19, 2024: Made a quick stop to pick up supplements for my husband before our trip to Hawaii. Had a nice visit with Pia, who is so sweet and knowledgeable! So bummed they don't sell the jackfruit burritos anymore. There's quite a treasure trove of healthy delights throughout the store. So come by, meet Pia, and check out this special store for a plethora of healthy and tasty options! read more

See all

Great place to shop for healthy foods. The service was great, and the owner very knowledgeable and committed to healthy products.

Boy, what a disappointing experience we had with the owner this month. First off, my wife usually texts the owner (Pia?) and gives her a list for me to go pick up. Since we live 90 minutes away, that has worked out pretty well for us, until this month. A young lady was filling my order as I entered the store. No problem. It was only about 6 or 7 things if I recall, but two of those items were 2 dozen eggs. Now these eggs are not cheap, and you would think they would take better care handling them, but no. the young lady put them on the bottom of the box, and then continued to fill the rest of the order. I was not paying attention to her packing, so I didn't know they were on the bottom until I got back home. when unpacking, I realized that every single egg was broken. My wife messaged the owner to tell her about it, and asked if we could have some sort of credit for a future order, but never heard anything back. So I waited several days and went ahead and called the store. The owner was "busy" with another customer, so I left a message with another employee for her to call me. She never did, even though she claims to have called and left me a voicemail (which my phone doesn't show the call or voicemail). In discussing this with the owner today, all I got was defensiveness, and she took absolutely ZERO responsibility for this, and NEVER offered any sort of restitution. She just kept saying it wasn't possible for this to happen, even though she wasn't the person who packed the box. My wife and I have spent hundreds of dollars over the past several years ordering from this business, but she wants to lose our business over two lousy dozen eggs? Unbelievable how rude and unempathetic she was on the phone with me, saying only that she was "sorry I felt like the employee" broke the eggs. Just so unacceptable. We will NEVER make the trip up and spend another dime at her store. read more

Pia is very knowledgeable and honest. Her store is filled with all kinds of amazing goodies. She was the one who suggested using castor oil compresses way before they were a trend. My go to place for all things holistic for me and my dog. read more

Really bummed to be writing this review because in all honesty I absolutely live their products and am so grateful for their baby balm. Today, however, I experienced the worst customer service. I usually go in to stock up on baby balm once every quarter or so. My husband also goes into the shop to buy a few other things that we love to use. I went today because we were running low on baby balm and I wanted to stock up again, but I was not greeted with the warm welcoming greeting as usual. Instead, I felt very unwelcome and a bother to whomever was working. I am uncertain if it was because I didn't know her by name or because I don't go in very frequently, but honestly the person that asked me why I was in the store was rude to say the least and definitely wanted me to leave. I'm really bummed and praying I find another baby balm like theirs because I felt so uncomfortable, I don't think I'd want to go back. read more

I'm so grateful for this store! First and foremost, the owner Pia has created an excellent environment. She has helped me in so many ways. I've gotten to know her over the years just through stopping by in the shop and chatting and observing. She has a wealth of knowledge and doesn't hesitate to share it for the benefit of the customer. She's done TONS of research and stays up to date on health and wellness and uses wise discernment in the products she brings into her shop. Everything she has in her shop is a high quality product, brought in with the intention to serve the well being of her customers. I highly recommend this store and suggest asking Pia a question or two next time you go! read more

Thank you Pia I really appreciate you taking the time to explain all about your store and how selective you are in the products and ingredients of highest quality and healthiest physiology to include. It's clear to me you really take your job as a health consultant very seriously and it shows read more

This store is a life changing experience! Temecula is so lucky to have them. I have to drive from Carlsbad once a month or every other month just to be able to have their goods! Pia is so knowledgeable and welcoming! A gift to the world when most grocery stores sell garbage! 100 stars in my book! read more

This place is heaven!!!! I highly recommend this place!!! The most friendly, helpful, informative store I've ever been inside of! My family member is allergic to wheat : perfect place! Another is type 1 diabetic: perfect place! Another cannot eat dairy: perfect place! Fresh food Pasture raised food Organic food NonGMO Whole food Keto Paleo Made to order food & also prepackaged food Grab n go snacks & whole meals Teas Spices & powders Natural health items read more

ALL NATUAL GOODIES Natural toothpaste, komucha, protein, spices, oils, butter, honey, mixes, superfoods... Pia, the owner, can give you everything you need to be a perfectly running oiled machine! Tell her about your health and concerns, what your diet is currently like and she will give u the perfect package. She walked us through the whole store and we got in touch with almost every product. She told us what would be fitting for my mom since she's diabetic, has high cholesterol and high blood pressure. She helped me choose products to weight loss and overall health! What is also great is she has a bunch of classes and challenges for you health freaks; cooking and 30 day clean eating! Most items can be sampled* in the store I've been taking ACV (apple cider vinegar) everyday which has helped me maintain my digestive system and lose some weight by suppressing appetite. Pia suggested to try the Raw Coconut Vinegar which is about the same but better and more nutritious! Just like ACV, you can use in on salads too. I also saw this product that read in huge bold letters "100% Pure Coconut Oil MCT" and I remembered how I used to give my Corgi Coconut oil for his problematic skin/hair and digestive system and how it solved everything! I only KNOW this is going to work wonders on me. 100% MCT wow. Worth the $25 a bottle. I can't wait. MCT oil claims to promote healthy digestive system, increases absorption of nutrients from food and supplements, increases brain function, reduce inflammatory and aid in faster recovery, and help with weight loss and weight management. I work out so I expect all these claims to do it's job! There's no taste! Probably going to take it with my vitamins and fish oils everyday :) Another great product I'm excited to use is the Ghee Butter. I got the Madagascar Vanilla Bean flavor. I'm excited to switch out Can't Believe It's Not Butter for this heavenly goodness. It says it's good in coffee, on pancakes and for baking. Lastly, Jem, mmmm. The cashew cardamom almond Butter. She gave us a sample and we loved it. My mom loves her crackers so I'm sure this "Jem" will be in the lunch bag everyday haha I asked Pia how long her store has been open and she said 4 years!!!! I told her it was my first time stumbling across this place and I go to the jewelry store next door all the time! Her exact words were, "you know why??? It's because you weren't ready for all this". Lol which is true. I'm trying to treat my body a lot better. read more

Artisan's Palate - Check out my review! Good stuff - Grocery Near Me - Temecula, California

The absolute best market around. Pia possesses vast knowledge of good "clean" foods and nutrition. She sells only food for which your body would thank you. Highly recommend. read more

What a treasure trove! So glad I stumbled in here while waiting for services next door. I was offered such fresh and delicious food. Food that WANTED to be eaten. I found so many of the things that I have had to mail order in the past. I circled around the entire shop several times, each time discovering new things I wanted to try. The crew there is a delight. They have truly created a community for people who are seeking to fill their bellies nutritiously and stock their shelves deliciously. Can't wait to come by again for another fresh brew and a try another item from their menu. read more

Are you into heath? Not yet? I get you. So much info and not enough time in the day to learn. Even if you are into heath, the owner of this store makes heath the main topic in every conversation. There isn't a product in that store that the owner (Pia) hasn't personally tried. In this shop, you will find high quality products ranging any were form tea, snacks, vitamins, and even meats. The owner is incredibly knowledgeable and willing to help anyone on their journey to a healthier life. This store is designed to take out the question, "is this healthy?" It gives consumers the freedom to eat foods that are seen as "bad" without guilt. Not only that, but it helps consumers live a longer, happier, and healthier life. I can't say anything more. You HAVE to check out this amazing store! P.s. you gotta try the mushroom coffee. It's the greatest thing ever!! read more

I am currently on a very intense diet. No grains, no sugar and no dairy. This place is a godsend!!!!! Pia always greets me with a smile, remembers my name AND my restrictions and shows me things that she knows I can eat. She even has the best price in town on a lot of her goodies that are also sold in other grocery stores. But who cares about the price when you're dealing with only the best quality imaginable. AND she makes coffees (try the Prana Coffee it's my total fave. read more

What a great little shop...Pia was so nice and greeted us right away and showed us around. She was very knowledgeable in our medical reasons to be paleo and helped us pick out some great items.... Her prices are a couple dollars less then I have seen in most health food stores so that is nice though I am going to warn you paleo is pricey lifestyle it's just something you are going to have to get use to unless you have a farm of your own... She makes daily lunch boxes that are 100% paleo and for $8 if I remember correctly... She carries essence oils and bone broth and a several other hard to find items like ghee and paleo approved deodorant... Will definitely be shopping here allot more thanks to my dear friends Lisa and Tony B. For the recommendation! read more

This is nice little joint located by the KMart. The proprietor is into the 100 mile and gluten free items. I just ordered some cheese dishes from her for a holiday party (all that I sampled were excellent). There is not a lot of variety, but what she does have is good. read more

This is THE place to get a unique and delicious gift that will be remembered by the recipient. Almost everything in the store comes from within a 100 mile radius. Everything I have tried from there is delicious. And all gifts I gave with these items got raves. I love the coasters and other products made with Temecula winery corks too. Very unique and beautiful detail. Be sure to ask Pia for the story behind the item or check the tablet to make that connection. read more

I can't say enough good things about Artisan's Palate and their awesome products. Aside from the many "foodie" items that we purchase that are "gluten free," NON GMO content, NO high fructose corn syrup, NO preservatives, the two that I VALUE THE MOST include: 1. the Coconut Bar (I used to eat Mound's bars, even though they weren't healthy) - AWESOME CHOCOLATE AND COCONUT & no bad ingredients - OMG you have to try it...and did I mention the alternative for Reeses peanut butter cups in that same line of chocolate bars?!?!? AND my # 2 new favorite: their deodorant - NO ALUMINUM, etc...ALL natural - "Keep It Real." For YEARS my husband has had issues, itching, etc with EVERY single deodorant he tried - insane. "KEEP IT REAL" is the ONLY deodorant that he can use - no itching, no perspiration and no odor. Thank goodness for Pia Maffei and Artisans Palate. Go check out her store!! read more

This store is a hidden gem in the big shopping center that houses Hobby Lobby and Kmart. I am impressed at the range of unique and tasty items I find at this store. I could not find these items anywhere else. The store also carries food items recommended by Oprah and other celebrities. My favorite items are the Hog Heaven BBQ sauce, the egg white chips and the Almond Water! It's an ideal place to find one-of-a-kind gifts or even indulge myself with delectable treats! And the best part of it all? The owner, Pia, donates part of the proceeds to support charities. Who doesn't want to support great causes? I highly recommend this shop! It's definitely worth the trip. read more

Whenever I want to get out of house the first place I go to is Artisan Palate. There are so many interesting food items, skin care, and very good/clean nutrional supplements.
