Oc Wine Mart & Deli

Local & loving it! Eating and drinking like you’ve never experienced it together before! We need more of these in the world! I always have awesome experiences here and meet other happy locals in the process. The staff (shout out to David & Teri) are nice and helpful, the food is delicious, and the wine bar is a dream! Enjoy a large selection of unique (alcoholic and non-alcoholic) refrigerated drinks on the go or sit down in their bar area for a meal and a drink. They also sell daily fresh bakery items and have a small in-house menu that includes foods such as charcuterie boards, flatbreads and a huge plate of bruschetta that can be shared with a group. *First Timers: For breakfast, try any of their breakfast burritos. They’re big enough to split with someone else.. unless you’re really hungry! For lunch or dinner try their sandwiches. I recommend the chicken sandwich. For a little extra flavor, add their pesto mayo or their oil-vinegar combo. *Wine Tasting: Inside the bar area, there is bar style seating and a self-serve automatic dispensable wine bar, or what my friends and I like to call “the holy grail for wine drinkers.” This place is a dream for any wine tasters out there who don’t like having to choose between a couple of wines to taste. Using a card with a microchip bought from the cashier, you can sample any wines ON TAP. Each pour is 2 ounces and individual pour prices, based on the bottle price, are labeled above each bottle. There are information cards with details about the wine and their prices per bottle so you can inform yourself on each bottle before choosing which wine to sample. (For first time Wine taters: the bottles are sorted from whites to red and it is recommended you start tasting with the whites and work your way to the reds.) * Events: A few times a month they host special wine tastings with their own sommelier, David, who’s extremely knowledgeable on anything to do with wine. Ask him a question, he knows the answer! He has been very helpful every time I’ve been in. Thanks David! *Live Music: On the weekends, they have live music. Enjoy local artists play while you sip your wine and much on your food. It’s such a relaxed atmosphere! I absolutely love this place and live down the street so I take friends and family often. I’m past due for writing this review! I would definitely recommend this to anyone who loves great deli sandwiches and wine tasting while occasionally getting to know a local or two! *Also, check out the Saffron bakery next door for tasty desserts after wine tasting!

This is my go to for liquor and wine. I pay more but the atmosphere is amazing!!! The service ..5 star. I know everyone by first name and they know mine. Long chit chats and hey.... sit down and have a glass or two of wine at their gorgeous wine bar!!! Breakfast burritos are out of this world. Immaculate always during business hours! Just remember to use the right door when entering!!! ;*)

If you want the ABSOLUTE BEST tuna fish sandwich, you need to get it here!!! We get it in their “squaw” bread. We’ve also had their Italian sandwich but, I’m from Pittsburgh, and we call them hoagies and we eat them toasted a lot so that’s how I order it here and they’re good too. But the TFS is the King here!

This place is great for many reasons. They have a great selection of craft beers which update often so we are always able to try new ones. They also have a large wine selection with an open area for wine tastings. They also have did available for order. You can order small plates to eat while wine tasting, deli sandwiches to eat in or to go and my personal favorite their breakfast burritos!! We find ourselves here often for all of the above reasons!

What a fantastic gem in Aliso! I love to come here for delicious Boar's Head deli sandwiches for lunch. Toasted and serve with a pickle, yum! A really great selection of wines, and a very cool wine tasting section with a bar top. I can't wait to try their breakfast burritos as I've heard they are also fantastic.
