Do not waste your time and money at this place. I was accused of taking pictures of the overpriced selection (I wasn't), called a secret shopper for the "other Indian liquor stores" and was insulted many times here by the Asian store owner. I have never been so disrespected and felt so uncomfortable at an establishment before. Should've read the reviews before stepping foot in there. Oh and don't bother pulling out your phone to look up what a wine tastes like or texting or you'll be yelled at. And don't go in there if you plan on browsing around for more than 2 minutes. That is all, I wish I could give 0 stars.

I have been coming here all year. I've been a very good customer always addressing the staff as sir/ma'am. I've always had a smile and been very kind and friendly. The ladies are nice and the selection is okay. But the oldest boy in the store is incredibly disrespectful.After my 7th month of coming to this location he has the gall to laugh and joke about my disability when handing him my ID for the thousandth time. Sure, maybe he doesn't know I'm a disabled veteran, but the ID he has looked at a ton of times at 20 seconds a pop clearly states Veteran and he could have some respect for that.The final straw was coming in today and spending 40 in this store, then asking if he can break a 20. With the register wide open, he lies and says he does not have the change to do so, all whilst a stack of 10s and 5s sit right there between us.I've been an excellent customer all year and this dude can't just do me a small favor while receiving a 40 dollar transaction? Totally just a tiny man in his own world. I will not be coming here any more.If you are a self-respecting American who chooses which services to support by voting with your dollars, by all means, support another local business that actually deserves it.

DON’T GO HERE!!!Go to California just across the street!!They had Terrible service and funky attitude. Very judgmental and rude!!!I’m part of a bourbon and whiskey club. We find and buy it all!! Part of it is sharing pics of things we don’t know or haven’t seen.I asked if I could take a picture of a bottle that was right in front of me. I didn’t have to even ask. O’ts was right there. I was being cordial. The owner and cashier not only said no but were rude as heck!Just poor people skills and lack of respect and awareness.They treated me awfully … and I would and could have bought that whole shelf.DONT GO HERE!!They didn’t even have Blanton’s. ????????

I was looking for something rare as a gift and they acted like they wanted me gone!! Very rude!!There were soooooo many reviews about rudeness. I should have taken heed.I’m mean seriously. There was a lot of people saying the same thing.Rude and bad sales people. Especially for a place with such a poor selection.It’s a hard No for me!!

Has to be the worst place in SOMD to buy booze. Sign says open at 9am and at 10:30am lights still out and front door closed. Came in at 1:30 and the dude was straight up annoyed I walked in. Never again.

Best variety and selection in town. Yes, you will get yelled at by the older lady behind the counter sometimes but that is all part of the experience. Get over it.

There's a large selection of alcohol here including a good variety of Japanese (and even Chinese) spirits which you can't find too too much of. I see a lot of reviews mentioning an older Asian lady but I went at a time where the cashier was a younger lady who was super nice and helpful.

Long story short… I’ve spent several hundred dollars in this store previously. One day I was shopping for bourbon and mixers. I had been in there for less than 10 minutes. The employee working came up to me and told me to leave. That I had been looking long enough. I will not be returning. I refuse to support a business that treats its customers with such disrespect.

Worst customer service ever. if you want to just be watched by a Asian lady that is worried over a $20 bottle then why do you bother let anyone in my friend tryed to looked around to just met by a rude NOOO! From across the store. Rather invest money at the liquor store behind BJS California wine and spirits.

The lady who owns this place is so nice. I've known her for years. And her female employee is the friendliest person also. Their selection is probably the best around, maybe a few dollars more than some of the others. Worth the stop to see what they have!

Absolutely trash service. I was there to purchase a bottle of whiskey. They happen to have a great selection at fair prices. I came in with some friends and notices a bottle of Henry McKenna. I picked up the bottle to read it, the old Asian lady behind the counter yelled at me to not pick up the bottle. I told her I was thinking of buying it and wanted to read it. Then I put it back. While I was looking at the different offerings she kept saying things like "he come here just to touch bottles". I was super annoyed, but tried to ignore it. I settled on a Calumet 15 year. When I went to pay it rang up for $155 which was $10 higher than the shelf lable. I said that was fine but wanted her to know her shelf didn't match the price. Again, she yelled at me "the price is $155". I told her she doesn't have to yell. I was just trying to be helpful. Then as I tried to walkout she stopped me and made me come back to the counter. She took my bottle and said "gimme card". I assumed she realized her error, but then I saw she was ringing it up for the same $155 again. I was very comfy, but I couldn't figure out what was happening. I checked my bank statement to make sure I wasn't double charged. It seems she charged me e a random $1.54 and was refunding that to me. I have no idea what she was doing, but based on this experience I have not and will not go back. I have a lot of whiskey drinking friends, and they all agree that they will not be supporting this rude business either. Hopefully, the word get out and the owners either fix the rudeni, or fail completely and have to move on!!! Wish Zero stars was an option!

The older lady in there, I’m assuming the owner, was extremely rude. We found what we needed, but was then waiting for a friend to figure out what they needed. While we were standing there waiting, the older lady came up and said, “Can I help you?” We said “No, we are just looking thanks.” She then said, “Well I know you’re looking.” and then just sat there and stared at us. We then proceeded to tell her we found what we needed and she eventually walked away. While the other lady (super kind) checked us out, the older lady was staring us down. She was super rude & she obviously has no social cues. We will N O T be back.

Best Beer selection in the county. Staff is extremely helpful and friendly. In addition, they have an expansive selection of wines. They are always eager to see if they can order request that they may not have. They also have fair selection of whisky. Their craft beer selection is outstanding, composing of rare hard to find in this part of the world.

Out looking for a few bottles for a Christmas party, I stopped over at Marketplace Wine & Spirits. What can I say but shopping in a military uniform while BLACK is a thing. After noticing the amount of help and attention for another customer…..I received NO assistance or help, just watched on camera. Sad. To ensure I was not maybe looking at this situation different or slighted, I went to the counter and asked for a bottle that was on the shelf. I was not only ignored, but told they did not have it. They only have what’s on the aisle is what I was told. It’s easy for me not to spend my money there and I am sure the “Owner” wouldn’t care or lose any sleep. But it is sad when you provide a service or want people to buy your merchandise and you “judge” or think negatively about some of your customers. 31 years of proudly serving in the military and our country and it continues…..
