    We were exploring old town tequila and popped into Old Town Tequila to find some mezcal. The store is a medium size but it's packed. We asked the worker if they had a specific brand and he could not find it. Upon roaming the aisles and searching we later were able to find it ourselves. Overall a good selection just very crowded with people and narrow aisles

    My husband and I inadvertently took a detour here on our way upstairs to eat dinner at El Agave. We have alot of big-box liquor stores around us but prefer boutique spirit shops when possible, so we decided to see what they're all about. We were looking for Blanton's and Casa Dragones which they had. My husband also wanted a specific bitter liquor for Negronis called Tempus Fugit Gran Classico but unfortunately they did not carry it. We thought since they specialize in tequila we might as well grab a bottle of mezcal and picked the associate's (Steve) brain for his recommendations. He gave us a great introduction of his favorites and the most popular ones that customer's gravitate towards. I do have to add what really stood out to us during our whole experience was Steve's customer service. After we paid for our items we were striking conversation with him at the counter - he is very genuine and personable and these interactions with employees are why I love mom and pop shops so much. Oh and a big shout out to the two shop pooches.

    The staff was so friendly and pleasant. I was immediately greeted and felt so welcome. I walked in and a sea of tequila greeted me! All shapes, sizes, and brands! I came here to buy some thing for a coworker who needed something as a gift for someone. I guess they did not have it anywhere else in Orange County and they had it here in San Diego! This liquor store is located below a restaurant. There is parking in the area and centrally located. If you're looking for tequila, this is your spot!

    My prized Tequila!!! Very hard to find and at a reasonable price.

    Omg this is Tequila heaven! I've never seen so many choices in my life. I always knew this was here but from the outside it doesn't look like much. I was looking for a very hard to get Tequila and they were the only place to have it. I tried calling to make sure they had it but the phone was busy a lot. That's understandable because of the selection they have and they ship all over. I got there right when they opened and there was already people in there. I couldn't believe my eyes!! It was crazy. Tequila for days!!! And I mean 5,789 days!!! They asked me if I was looking for a special Tequila and he went and got me two versions of it. I ended up getting the higher end of the two and told him I would be back. I was looking for the Jenni Rivera Tequilas. Everyone seems to be sold out of them. You have to come here at least once if you ever go to Old Town.

    Everything tequila all the time. Only :( is staff may not have friendliest attitude but :) you can pretty well trust their recommendations. Decent prices. Have enjoyed everything purchased there. Will forever be my go-to store even while living 1,700 miles away.

    Turns out it's a product of Old Town Liquor & Deli, and this sandwich was actually something to write home about.

    I was so excited to find that there was a liquor store/market close to where I live in my new…read moreapartment! There aren't many other stores within a close distance in this area. However, they are price gouging people for that reason. They know there's no other stores in the area so they are charging the most they can possibly charge.. a bottle of average Chardonnay that I could get for $12-$14 at the supermarket they are charging $24. TEN dollars more! I even said "you guys charge way too much" to the owner and he didn't even respond to me. He couldn't care less. Everything is sky high there. And the owner is not friendly. If you can get to another store, go there.

I don't usually jump to leave negative reviews--if you check my account, I haven't posted one in a long time--but this needs to be addressed. I've now ordered from this business twice through DoorDash, paying a premium for convenience. Both times, the order was handled poorly. In my most recent order, I wasn't given the option to substitute items. I specifically ordered from them because they had the tequila I wanted and a particular brand of beer. Instead, they sent me a different beer I don't like, without asking for a substitution or contacting me. To make matters worse, my Dasher waited while they finished the order--only for it to be incorrect. I tried calling the business, but no one answered. Now I'm stuck with beer I won't drink and will likely have to give away. If you're in the downtown area, I'd recommend ordering from somewhere else. This feels like a bait-and-switch, and it's frustrating to deal with more than once.

    This was my first visit to this business…read more Around 11:30 AM on April 22, 2026, I stopped in while out on a break from work, hoping to support a local business and grab a quick lunch. I planned to order a their soup and half-sandwich combo. After waiting my turn, I asked what the soup of the day was. Instead of a direct response, the employee behind the counter (wearing a black shirt) pointed vaguely toward the counter and said, "It's right there." There were multiple signs and items, and it wasn't clear what he was referring to. I asked again for clarification, and he repeated himself--this time with clear irritation. I said "I don't see it". With some distain he replied "chicken noodle soup". At that point, it was obvious the interaction wasn't going anywhere productive or that this individual did not value his customers. I made a comment about the attitude and left. Here's the reality: in today's economic environment, every customer matters. I came in with the intention of spending money and potentially becoming a repeat customer. Instead, I was met with dismissive and unfriendly service for no reason. What are we doing? I wasn't rude or confrontational - I simply asked a basic question. The employee could have have simply stated what the soup of the day was. Instead, his attitude was unnecessarily hostile and reflects poorly on the business. Interactions like that don't just lose a single sale, they cost long-term customers and referrals. If ownership is paying attention, fire this guy!Staff represent your brand, and this experience fell well below any reasonable standard of hospitality. Unfortunately, I will never be returning, and I will not recommend this place based on this experience. In fact, I will provide this account of my experience with Royal Food Mart to many!

I ordered the BBQ beef brisket sandwich and can't wait to go back to try the whole menu. The sandwich was made to perfection. The bread was amazing, and I finished it before I knew it! It had cheese, onion, tomato, mayo, and BBQ sauce - this was so good. I'm usually not big on tomato or heavy BBQ sauce, but if it's worth it, I'll eat both... and this was absolutely worth it. The BBQ sauce has officially grown on me. The wait wasn't long at all. I didn't go inside to pick up my order, so I can't speak for customer service yet, but I can 100% vouch for the food. Got lucky with parking right out front. Can't wait to come back!
