Happily I found exactly what I was looking for: Exquisite Local Tomatoes bursting with flavors that will never be found in most American markets. Oddly, in every corner of the world, they have wonderful fruit, but in the USA, you gotta know someone. That person is Mario. In addition, Mario knows meat, and I had to get two of the tenderest fillets I've ever had: Butter! Last but not least: house-smoked trout fillets. Only at Mario's! However if you need rows of different pastas, or wide ranges of vegetables or fruit, forgettaboutit. This is a MEAT Market. You need dry or canned foods, go to Walmart!

Absolutely the Last place I would shop! While in Ruidoso my friend and I stopped by The Olive…read moreBranch. We parked in the very nice parking lot that is provided behind the businesses and across from the large sign that announces the name of the store and that they have olive oils and balsamic vinegars. The sign is right next to a long set of wooden steps. We are 75 and 81 years old. We made our way up the steps, knocked on the door and were met by what I later found out was the owner. We were told that we would have to go back down the stairs and go around to front. I asked two more times if we could come in the back since we had already climbed the stairs. I actually was just a bit shocked at her attitude as she got more "haughty" each time I ask. Needless to say, we walked down the stairs, got into our vehicle and did not darken her doorway. It gets better! A few days later, after relaying our experience to several other friends and family I called the store, gave my list of oils and vinegars that I had taken with me and asked if she could give me the the total price of all of them. She then told me to go online and look them up myself.....at that point I told her that I was one of the two people she wouldn't "allow" to enter her shop on Friday. I suggested that she perhaps add "Entrance in Front" to her sign, to which she said that no one else has ever tried to enter through the back. She said again that she did not "Allow" anyone to come in the back. Worse experience ever! it is my intention to tell as many people as I can what kind of person owns that shop. She was just incredibly rude and not someone I care to do business with!
