The QCOM is a really cool local landmark. I've been coming out for years to buy their special olive…read moreoil. Apart from the EVOO, we enjoy the garlic and vanilla bean flavors a lot, but they offer so many other varieties. One thing I love is they provide recipe cards with suggestions on how to use their olive oils, vinegars etc. to make awesome dishes. That's how we first discovered the incredible vanilla bean olive oil waffle recipe. Another great service they provide is the ability to sample most everything. The store features other local products like jams, honey, granola etc. They have the OliveSpa line of body care products also. So many great items to shop for! Many years ago we took the tour and learned all about how the olive oil is made. And you cannot forget the Del Piero Kitchen where you can come dine for breakfast, lunch, dinner or brunch. Oftentimes on weekends they have festivals or live music on the patio. It's just a happening place - definitely worth checking out.

They also have a wonderful Italian market with aisles full of specialty foods, plus the cutest kitchen knick-knacks and gifts -- perfect for the foodies in your life. The food is fresh and delicious, whether you enjoy it there or pick something up from the fridge to take home. When the weather is nice, it's lovely to sit outside under the olive trees, and during the summer there are plenty of comfortable indoor tables. It's the perfect little getaway for a couple of hours if you're in the area. The 40-minute olive oil education experience was so enriching and absolutely worth it. Just a quick note - summer is much quieter, but be prepared-- it gets really busy in the winter!

The burger was large, flavorful, and made with quality ingredients. Considering the generous portion size, the price was very reasonable and offered excellent value. I'm also a big fan of fresh-brewed tea, and it did not disappoint. It was fresh, refreshing, and the perfect complement to the meal. One of the highlights of the restaurant is the large shaded patio. Even on warmer days, the misting system helps keep the space comfortable, making it a great spot to relax and enjoy your meal outdoors. Between the great food, reasonable prices, outstanding employees, and comfortable patio, this was a very enjoyable experience. I'll definitely be back.

It was nice to browse while waiting for my number to be called to order my tea. I was so tempted by all of the fun drinks that they have on the menu, but I stuck to what I came in for the decaf flavored teas. Today I went with a blueberry lavender and it is so delicious and such a pretty color. I also love how great of a deal it is for a 32 ounce large tea. The staff was also very friendly, and they were also working very hard to help every customer who was trying to get a bakery item or drink. I also love the outside patio area with a very pretty fountain and seating area. I will definitely be back for more tea in the future.

When I walked in, the place was pretty crowded with a great mix of locals and tourists. They have tons of options, from prepackaged pork to fresh cuts you can order directly from the butcher. Since I was on my motorcycle and had limited space, I couldn't stock up like I wanted to. I ended up just grabbing a small pack of the jalapeño bacon and some of their beef jerky. Both were absolutely delicious! The staff was super friendly, too. There are so many options here that I'm definitely going back to try some new stuff.

The deals here are seriously hard to beat. We recently picked up two pomegranates for just $1.50, and that's just one example of the kind of value you can find throughout the store. They have a ton of variety at prices that make you want to stock up. The produce section is one of the biggest standouts for us. They have a great selection of fresh fruits, berries, vegetables, peppers, potatoes, and so much more. Everything was well-stocked, clean, and organized, which makes shopping here really enjoyable. They also carry organic options, fresh honey from local vendors, frozen meats, and plenty of other grocery staples. Then there's the fun part of the store--the random overstock and closeout items from other vendors. You never really know what you're going to find! During our visit, they had things like Alani drinks, Liquid Death, and a bunch of other items that made browsing just as fun as actually grocery shopping. This has definitely become one of those stores where we go in looking for produce and end up finding a whole lot more. Great prices, tons of variety, and everything kept clean and well-stocked. If you haven't checked out Superstition Ranch Market yet, it's absolutely worth a visit!
