What started as a plan to head to Queen Creek Olive Mill for Garlic Fest turned into us deciding to…read moreskip the crowds and simply enjoy a delicious breakfast and that we did! Queen Creek Olive Mill is such a delightful place to spend some time. Of course, seeing the olives are fantastic, but their infused olive oils and the dishes they create with them are equally worth enjoying. There's something so relaxing about sitting outside in the shaded portion of the property, looking out over the grounds, and even taking a little stroll among the numerous olive trees. I ended up ordering the ricotta eggs on focaccia, and gosh darn, they were DELICIOUS. The white truffle-infused olive oil was absolutely the star of the dish. It added just the right amount of rich, savory truffle flavor without overpowering the creamy eggs. The focaccia was flavorful, perfectly suited for soaking up all those delicious flavors, and made the whole dish feel extra indulgent. My partner went with the bacon, potato, and ricotta breakfast sandwich, which he really enjoyed as well. It was hearty, flavorful, and a great choice for breakfast. Even though we originally came for Garlic Fest, we ended up having such a lovely and relaxing morning just enjoying the property and the food.

I especially love that you can sample many of the oils, jams and BBQ sauces before buying. I ordered from the Del Piero Kitchen and enjoyed the Mill Meatballs, which had great flavor, and the garlic Parmesan frites -- YUM! I also had a Hugo Spritz. A little sweet for me, but still refreshing. There are plenty of tables for small and larger groups, plus a bar where you can order drinks. I was tempted by the premade pasta and sauce dinners to take home, but decided to buy some wine instead. It was busy inside and quieter outside since we visited in mid-August, but they had the misters going. I can imagine how great the outdoor space and events are when the weather cools down. Definitely need to come back in the fall!

WOW!! I just got…read moreoff the phone with Allie, and her team - they are simply AMAZING!! I needed help today on Mother's Day - not to get/send something for my mother, instead it's my spouses birthday and we are apart this year - so I wanted to create a special moment from away - I went to Chat GPT to get guidance on what I could do to create a special moment - and Chat recommended AJ's, and I took the advice and was quickly transferred to the floral department - I felt immediately welcomed and cared for - I was inspired to believe that we could together, create an incredible experience - I was immediately spoiled with a perfect floral arrangement - followed with great guidance on how to put together a complete package - not just flowers, but also a small personal cake, I wanted to include mixed nuts for the resort stay as well as sparkling water - I was able to work with a couple of other store experts thats helped curate a perfect blend of items to include to create a special and thoughtful Birthday Package - and this all includes delivery to the resort - I didn't have to find someone to pick up everything and then deliver - when I say they made it simple and easy and very enjoyable - I might be understating how I feel right now - I feel so well taken care of - and that I'm for sure, If we lived in Arizona, we would become AJ's new regular customers/fans of the magic they create in their community!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH for making today so super special!

Store operations and quality continues to decline after sale of Bashas to Raley's and after Manager…read moreJoe's departure. Consistency and professionalism are no longer values fostered and maintained at AJ's in newly hired team members due to lack of effective leadership and sub-par training programs. Thankfully the long-standing staff that care is the only saving grace of this store, along with a variety of good items not found nearby due to the lack of competition which also has contributed to AJ's decline. If you want a burrito here like they used to regularly offer, good luck--they rarely make them anymore, and when they do it's no longer at any predictable time. None offered even at 9am on a Saturday. Better off making one at home with quality ingredients anyway, not Bashas' junk ingredients sold at a premium. Just think what AJ's could've been with proper leadership. Instead, still riding out the ripples that remain from its wave of 1900s excellence.

So for Valentine's day, I wanted to stay home and cook my family a nice meal. We stopped by to purchase the meats. The store is clean and well organized. All the items are frozen, so plan ahead for your meals to defrost. I didn't know where all the meats were, but the staff was friendly and helped point me in the right directions. Wild Fork has bison, pork, beef, seafood (ex: octopus), alligator, kangaroo, etc! There was a sign about Iberico pork and I asked the staff. They said it is their best selling and highest quality pork. I didn't get it this time, but will definitely go back to buy some. Supposedly, Iberico is the wagyu of pork!

It is a traditional Mexican bodega and meat market better known as a carniceria. Everyone there is so friendly and they have all of your hard to find Mexican brand goods. The best thing is that they have a full kitchen that serves everything from tacos, burritos, nachos and even menudo on certain days. Fresh hand made tortillas that you can purchase and take home to cook when needed as well. My go to there is the mixta burrito which is a mix of pastor (pork) and carne asada. The burrito is huge and also has beans and rice inside combined with cilantro and onions. Their fresh homemade salsas are to die for! Grab an ice cold refresco from the fridge to wash it down (soda pop for all the gringos).

But that's okay because I wouldn't want us to even think about eating more of it than we did. These people clearly don't know the meaning of the word "crisp."

I came away with quite a few impulse buys, but I really enjoyed the experience! Looks like they're sticking around since they renewed their lease and even started up a new coffee shop/eatery in the same plaza. But I encourage everyone to support this amazing local business and bask in a wack-a-doodle shopping experience!
