I find it very fortunate that we have a trustworthy Chinese Herbal shop with knowledgeable and…read moreexperienced owners nearby. The owners were both doctors officially educated in both Chinese and Western medicine from mainland China (and the father was also a medical professor), and their sons also learned the same trade. So I often go in to ask for their advice on what are the best Chinese Herbal and/or food remedies to treat different conditions (like high blood sugar or cholesterol) and have the comfort and trust that they won't just recommend or sell anything to make a quick buck. Their herbs and other items are always of high quality and at reasonable price. When I have actual illness that I think will be better treated with Chinese rather than Western medicine, I will go see Dr. Hong (the father) whose prescriptions have worked very well for me through the years and he's the best that I've found so far for the past twenty years in S Cal and N Cal. Better yet, they also have Chinese herbal prescriptions in power form (you can choose either actual herb or the powder form), which you can just mix with warm water without having to go through the trouble of boiling herbal tea. They're not appetizing by any measure, but sure beat the stinky smell and taste of traditional Chinese Herbal tea. Highly recommend both the shop and the doctor!

If you want to have a colon cleansing for the next 5 days, come and buy their chinese medicine. Had…read morea prescription for weak blood, end up being weaker from 5 days of diarrhea.

Greeted warmly once I set foot in the store. FIJI MARKET is a Cute little family-owned market on…read moreSan Mateo Ave in San Bruno, specializing in dry food products for Indian, Fijian, Polynesian cooking. The spices alone is worth the visit. They also have a good selection of different varieties of rice and grains, Indian, Thai, etc. and other pantry items. Nice variety of Indian, Asian, South Pacific snacks. They also offer a few Hawaiian shirts and knickknacks but what caught my eye was a small table laden with colorful Indian SILK SCARVES!!!! I came away with a bag of GARLIC PEAS (IT WAS GARLIC!) to snack on, bag of BULGUR WHEAT to try cooking at home, and a beautify lavender/gray SILK SCARF! The scarf was 100% silk and priced at $14.95. Yes, baby, it WAS coming home with me!!!!!! FIJI MARKET is an eclectic market where Indian, Fijian, Thai, Polynesian food products that may be hard to find. Again, you have got to check out the spices if you do a lot of Indian, Southeast Asian or South Pacific cooking. Parking is metered on the street where you pay at a standing kiosk. Mind your time parked there and you'll be fine. Apparently, though not by personal experience, their ticketing can be aggressive. See you there!

This place has everything from neem oils, amla powder and other spices. Wort coming back to the…read morestore owner was very helpful on my purchases.

Great little spot in downtown Burlingame selling fresh-pressed olive oils and high quality…read morevinegars. The store owner is friendly and genuinely wants to help you find the right product(s) vs trying to sell you on buying things. We appreciate that Del Oliva openly puts out sample cups so you can taste at your leisure (no limits, no needing to ask for sample cups, no pressure). All of their vinegars and oils taste pretty different, and it's fun discovering what you like. In addition to oils and vinegars, they also sell a bunch of other goods, like pastas, jars, etc. Most of their olive oils are pressed recently (ex: pressed 30 days ago), and if you're unsure what you're looking for - or just want to learn - the store owner is happy to share. They have 2 sizes of bottles for oils and vinegars, and you can bottle yourself if you want (which we thought was fun). The owner will also seal and wrap your bottle for you, which we thought was a nice touch. We've purchased multiple bottles of oils and vinegars and will keep coming back!

He was incredibly welcoming, genuinely passionate about his craft, and took the time to walk us through a variety of olive oils and balsamic vinegars without ever making it feel like a sales pitch. He encouraged us to sample numerous combinations, explained the different flavor profiles, and answered every question with enthusiasm. You can tell he truly enjoys helping people find something they'll love. The shop itself has a warm, rustic charm that makes you want to slow down and browse. There is an impressive selection of olive oils and balsamic vinegars, from classic everyday staples to unique flavors that you probably wouldn't think to try until you taste them. Whether you're a serious home cook or just looking for a unique gift or something to elevate your next meal, Del Oliva is absolutely worth a visit. Great products, an inviting atmosphere, and outstanding customer service from Eddie made this one of the most memorable shopping experiences I've had in Burlingame.
