We stood 6+ people deep line of customers waiting to be acknowledged. There were a lot of other employees working... walking past us and chilling. I guess front desk was not a priority to have multiple people covering or filling in. I finally just asked if we could seat ourselves, which i was told I could go to bars. We ultimately had a good time and Sophia was good to us at the bar. As a student & ptomoter of "efficiency" & "customer service", i would love to impart some wisdom in these areas, to help your business thrive. Good & tasty products!

Ever since I first tried Calivirgin's olive oil in Calistoga, I've wanted to get to the source…read morewhere it was harvested and bottled in Lodi. Last weekend on a trip to Sacramento, I finally had a chance to stop by their Olive Mill and Winery. There is a nice sparking clean outdoor patio with picnic tables within a few steps from the olive oil grove but it was a bit hot that day so we opted to sit inside. In addition to the olive oil tasting set, there were some brunch items such as a crostini and salad as well as a Mediterranean plate with hummus. We opted for the crostini, olive oil tasting and a cappuccino. The jalapeño olive oil was unique and flavorful enough that we bought a couple bottles of it to take home. The pear vinaigrette was thick and tangy. The waitresses were friendly and helpful when we had a couple questions about the dishes. The shelves in the shop area is full of flavored olive oils and vinaigrette as well as ceramic and a whole slew of items for serving charcuterie. If you are a fan of olive oil and are planning on a trip up to Sacramento or Lake Tahoe, would definitely recommend stopping by to check out Calivirgin.

They had a booth at the Farmers Market in Tracy and I was able to try some of their extra virgin…read moreolive oil - verdict: Very Good! The guy behind the booth, I believe was the owner and he was explaining that their olive oil is custom pressed from their 100-year-old manzanillo olive trees which gives it a unique flavor, he also explained that the trees are dry farmed which contributed to the flavor too. If you like extra virgin oilve oil - try a bottle! You can purchase it on their website.

I'm writing this review in hopes the owners fix their costumer service. I received some of their…read moreolive oil as a gift back around Christmas and I absolutely loved their product! I'm from LA but have family in Sacramento, I saw on their website/ alongside google they were located in Lodi and that they were open. I decided to give them a call because of the long drive, the lady I spoke to said they had a private event the day I called and asked if I come over Monday or Tuesday which was really preferred for her. I agreed and went on Tuesday. When I arrived the place was very hard to locate. There is no sign or anything, it seems to be a private house. I called the number provided on their website and spoke to the lady again and she said they aren't open to the public and that they only accept cash and wanted me to leave it under the mat. Then why tell me to come Tuesday and that it was preferred to you?? She then said she would give me a call back to let me know if anyone else is there to help me. She never called me back, I gave her a few calls trying to reach her and it seems like she blocked me or is refusing to answer my calls Is that how you treat costumers? I normally don't write reviews but this was the worse experience I've had. I drove 45 mins plus for nothing and just to gain this experience. Do not tell your costumers to come on a day where you aren't even present and then GHOST them. You lost my business along side multiple family members and friends. I hope you fix this problem and fix your website so it doesn't give FALSE information to future costumers. Please fix yourselves and this problem.

The day I was there, one of their suppliers dropped off some freshly baked sourdough loaves, still hot from the oven.

Looking forward to coming back next time I'm in the area. Maybe they'll have those cookies again!

But I noticed they had a display of sausages and pates. Suddenly Riley appeared. He asked me what sort of thing I was looking for. Within a minute I had two petite Molinari fennel salamis, a wedge of smoked Gouda, and a half LaBrea baguette. He rang me up, gave me napkins and knives, and I was on my way.

We were seated right away upon walking in. The owners were incredibly personable and made us feel welcome, giving us plenty of time to look over the drink menu. We started with the Bruschetta, which was fresh and packed with flavor. For our mains, we ordered the Bucatini pasta and the lasagna; both dishes were a delight and exceeded our expectations in terms of quality and freshness. To finish, we had a chocolate dessert--I can't recall the specific name, but the owner took the time to explain exactly how it was made, which was a lovely touch. Everything about our meal was perfect, and the ambiance offered such a cozy, personalized atmosphere. We will definitely be back!

We sat outside & they kept checking on us and making sure our glasses were filled during our fasting. No reservations needed! Walk-ins welcomed & you can also order by the glass.
