I am a reoccurring customer and Cody really makes my delivery perfect every time. Friendly and always gets my order to my early. Thank you Cody and Caliva keep doing a great job.
I have to say.... for being a 420 delivery service here in the fresno area, the Hanford location is bar none the best we have in our area. Prices are fantastic. Sales all the time. Veterans are taken care of with caliva 100% but this review is more geared towards the employees who work directly at the Hanford location. All of the drivers are amazing and when I've interacted with management it was extremely delightful and pleasant to deal with. Specific names of employees I can think of off of the top of my head [THEY ARE ALL AMAZING] and I'm sorry if I miss a name! But Miranda and Jeff definitely stand out as providing the best service I've seen..... though there's a major shout out to Ashley A. From driver and beyond she has been PHENOMENAL. 10 out of 10. Always pleasant and courteous. She goes above and beyond to ensure my high is top notch. Her smile brightens up our day and really does make the handoff smooth and efficient. Her upbeat and positive attitude is definitely a trait to have and she's a keeper in my book. If you want anyone to represent your company it's going to be Ashley. She deserves praise for her actions and her ability to go above and beyond!!Thank you Team Hanford!! 10 out of 10 stars if it were an option!
Had an amazing first time but the few times I had came in they hassled me cause if the coupon cards they had provided me and told me I can use. Then when I go to use them they say I can't stack coupons. Even though I spent over 50$ so I got a free joint but they didn't have any so I got a card I used when I came in and spend over 50$ again the male employee said to me that he stacked 3 discounts and I can't get my free joint even though one of the cards was my free joint from last time they never gave me.. so now I spend over 50$ got my owed joint then asked if I can get my free for the purchase I just made and he gave me the biggest hassle I don't think I'll be coming back for quite a long time here thanks but no thanks I like to be treated with respect for using your coupon cards that doesn't say anything on them about stacking so goodbye deli in Hanford
This was my first time going in and I will definitely be coming back mini mini more times I tried the other place across the street and it was OK but the service at Calleva was awesome I didn't feel rushed or pressured to buy the most expensive thing they've got great bud great prices and great service would definitely recommend
I can't stop eating the birthday cookies! Lol I love there's vegan products and fast delivery in my town!
Went into the retail location, front desk is very friendly however the budtender refused to give me the advertised price the sign in front of her said 4 8ths for $40 she kept telling me they were $12.50 each even if I bought 4. I pointed out the sign as did her co-worker and she still told me they would be $12.50 each. It was my first visit and my last. Didn't even make a purchase because that kind of service is just ridiculous.
The first time visiting and right there and then it started ! The positive, welcoming , and enthusiastic attitudes. Truly makes you feel at Home. My questions were answered was educated on new products. The only thing I regret is not spending more time there. There's a lot to learn about this. Thank you guys , Oh! Almost for the FREE GOODIES . I LOVE YOU GUYS.
Introductory offer was really nice; Ordered the night before and by 11:30 the next day I had all the goodies. The online store was easy to navigate and checkout was smooth. The delivery driver, David, was super friendly and able to take payment quickly. Super convenient!
Had a bad experience here. They tried to make it better but still too expensive here. Sorry guys. Even with $30 off my order your still more expensive then Catalyst just down the street. Boo
ZACK was awesome! So easy to order for curbside and he was super fast on top of that! I'll be back again and again for great service and that Purple Fun Uncle! The BEST.
Nice shop layout. Customer service sSLACKING, so I had to write a Karen ass review. Went in already knowing what I want. Gave the dude a $100 my change was $30 EZ.Normally they give me a receipt but this time they did not..get to my car count my change. He shorted me $10. Go back to the store, instead of a simple I'm sorry here's your correct change I get an excuse. " I thought I grabbed a $20" which I found SUS cause then dude grabs the $10 out his tip jar. Asked to talk to the manager cause the service was trash, gave the receptionist my number for him/her to call me back. Get a call back from the receptionist instead saying 20% off my next visit like NOT the point. It's the principle of how it was handled, unprofessional which blows my mind since I've worked in the industry for 8 years. SO COUNT YA CHANGE before you leave this shop.
Always grateful for their products and customer service. Been assisted multiple times by Melena, a great energy to vibe with. Thank you!!
First off there prices are a little high at this location. Second make sure when you are buying a refill vape cartridges is for for a battery that you own.Bought Stiizy cartridges did not know that I needed a totally different battery from the round.So I had to go back and spend $17 bucks on a f@@king battery. This battery lasted a week and then died.Don't try calling them they don't answer the phone and have to go through some BS on there website.So after eating like 20 minutes online I spoke to a support person and they said just bring it and will replace it. Just showed up and brought the battery and told them the problem they get me a new battery and they say that will be $17 bucks again. The support person never Ed mention that I would need the receipt or I would have looked before wasting my F@@king time coming here again. They could have just replaced the battery which cost about $1.00 to be made in China!!!!!Over priced, bad website support, bad customer service. Go to another collective that truly takes care of the customer !!!!!To the owner the battery decide to breakdown after a week instead of the 3 days. Your staff should tell your customers that this product needs a unique battery to use. If I knew that I would have not bought the cartridge or the battery. Also $17 for a battery is very expensive!!!
This place is so great !!! The workers are so nice and helpful ! I went in today and bought some pre rolls real quick. The guy that helped me was very nice (i believe his name is Zack, long blonde hair) and asked me what kind of dog I had before I left just bc he saw my "Dog Mom" hat. Great place ! Definitely love coming here
First time here and it was a great experience. The inside of Deli by Caliva is super clean and welcoming. This should be the standard for dispensaries so it's not so stigmatized even in this day and age. Definitely coming back!
Brittany is the best!!!!! My delivery order was running late and Brittany was able to help me out. She explained the reason why my delivery was delayed and help my situation. She was so sweet and understand my frustration and right away she knew how to fit my problem. I was every frustrated and she able to make my experience better!
Zachary b is an amazing budtender he is very helpful knowledgeable he has amazing customer service skills always makes me feel welcome everybody here is awesome makes me always want to come back with a smile no matter what the situation is of what kind of day I'm having I always feel happy to come on here and get my medicine and go right home and feel a lot better than I did before I walk in five Star All The Way
Love the fact that everyone was masked up had me feeling all safe and thangs. Since this was my first time here as FTP I was given a 20% discount that was a tremendous plus. "Zack" was my bud tender cool as hell very professional he gave me amazing service and was very efficient and he knows his shit. The staff was so nice! This place is a real asset to the community!! I will be back soon.
Probably the most laid back, professional shop around. Super helpful tenders and good product. Eric has helped me out a few times here and he knows what he talking about. Oh yea....great prices!!!
Love the entire experience when visiting this spot! Everything is organized and always clean. The team is super friendly and always knowledgeable.
First time visiting. All of the staff I came in contact with were very polite and helpful. Visited on 4/20, and got some really great deals. Very relaxed and comfortable atmosphere. The store was very clean and neat, with a kind of candy store vibe. Received a 30% off coupon as a first time customer, which I plan on using when I return again.
First timer here! Buddy referred me to Deli. Looked like a cool experience, something new to check out, a one of a kind joint, with good choices, BUT turned out to be a blah experience with our budtender Zack. Stopped by after 7pm Parked in the lot. No line, sweet! Talked to the security guard was a cool guy and he said it was surprisingly slow for a Saturday. Entered the place and it was like Aaah. Very clean, unique interior design, front desk was kind and friendly and signed me up. Waited just a few minutes and Zack greeted us. Asked what we were looking for and we thought he would give us a walk thru, share his opinion about his favorites, wow us with the new customer experience, Nope! He was kinda being a d*ck, just like this is what we got, cost this much, his attitude was nothing like the Deli experience I thought I was gonna have. I made my selection, even tipped the guy, then started looking around the store at all the cool merchandise. Was interested in buying a tshirt and some other things, and suddenly he says Time to go, I got other customers! WTF? Are u serious? So we bounced. Dude you just lost the chance to increase your sales, you rushed a new customer out of your store, no wow factor, isnt that the main reason why people come here? To get a unique customer experience? If I just wanted some buds Id just go somewhere else with same buds and better prices. Deli missed the mark with this guy. Either he woke up on the wrong side of the bed or he wasnt trained on customer service. Why the rush? Thought they were slow today. This aint no McDs drive thru. Most likely wont be returning.
Well I used to say Deli was my favorite dispensary. So much so that I would drive nearly 5hrs one way just to purchase my flower there. The last three visits have been less desirable than previously. The staff seems rushed, young, and rude. Their own personal conversation and jokes are more important than the customers who are spending hundreds of dollars per visit. However my last visit was the straw that broke the camels back so to speak. I pull up in the parking lot, sitting in my car about to get out and wait in 40° weather in a long line just to get into the building. Finishing a cigarette. Security comes up to my window and tells me that it's against the rules for me to smoke a cigarette in the vehicle that I own! That I have to put my cigarette out or leave. Did y'all hear me I was sitting in my own car!!!! Smoking a f**** legal menthol cigarette! So yeah, I'll be damned if I'm told what I can or can't do in my own property. And I'll be damned if I ever go back to that store again. As soon as they harassed me about what I do in my own car that is legal in all 50 states, I was gone. Good flower can be found anywhere, good customer service and manners apparently can't be.
I have been coming here for awhile now just always buying the Reef Leaf which I love. I wanted to buy something more top notch so I tried the "Blackjack" & "Alíen OG". Both are outdated and so dry. No real crisp high at all. Just leaves you with cottonmouth and a headache. Spent $98 dollars to buy garbage weed. I use to lose this place and brag all the time about it, not anymore. I am more disappointed to be honest. My 1st time buying they're "higher shelf" and it just shat on me.
This place is awesome, they carry my favorite edibles and the staff is always warm and knowledgeable. Zack was especially helpful! It's also a plus that the place is super cute & retro
Fresh buds, fresh service all the time. Staff is well educated and friendly. The shop is well maintained, clean, and accommodating. I also appreciate the security staff outside who are also friendly but firm, making sure everyone is safe and respecting the shop. I've had nothing but great experience here. Bought a disposable vape (brass knuckles) with a himeleya battery but the two where not compatible and the cartridge leaked rendering the vape useless. When I went to pick up again the sup was understanding and replaced my vape. That was awesome. Thank you!
Do you like waiting half an hour for your order? Well, make sure to order curbside pickup at this location
Only two allowed in the waiting lobby at a time and two allowed in the shopping section at a time. Everyone was wearing masks and friendly. Shout out to Brandon who kept us super informed on what we were shopping for and answering all our questions. Will most definitely be back!
From the sucurityyyy to the lady managing the entrance (desk) and finally the guy that rung me up ..they were all so pleasant! I know we are all going through a bizarre time but these guys managed to stay so friendly and helpful! I purchased some wyld edibles, dog walker pre rolled doobiessss and another pre rolled blunt. So far So good! Oh and lastly can I give a shoutout to the front security guard with the beautiful chocolate brown eyes! Hellerrrr! Thanks Caliva Y'all were dope.
Was in great hands with Zack. Nice clean beautiful store with a wild variety to choose from. friendly staff!
The weed that's worth purchasing is too expensive. And if you get more affordable weed, it won't be in a clear bag or jar because you are gonna get 20% leaves. I CANNOT condone purchasing your weight here. Stick to the delivery services in the area.
Such great selection finest strands all the newest technology Zach was such a sweet guy so helpful patient & charming glad this opened please don't move.
Super clean and legit. I am compromised and this place made me feel like I had nothing to worry about. First time I've gotten a receipt for purchasing my meds and it felt awesome. A guy can get used to this.Security and service were both amazing. Bravo!
Nice shop, very friendly staff. They didnt have what I was looking forBut they have a nice selection.They helped me find what I was looking for online so that was really nice
GREAT website experience and also for delivery the status system is excellent. I also was pleased with the selection of items available online for delivery. The only downside was just the driver. That's kind of where the customer service ended, I was friendly, she was not. I handed the tip along with the payment in cash and she asked if I wanted change back and I said no thanks. Normally there's a "thank you" in response but she didn't even acknowledge the tip. And I tip well too!
Just visited and had Joe Brooks help me out with picking out the right product and just wanted to say he was a very helpful and easy going dude! Definitely will be visiting again
Sabrina thanx Your an awsome girl..I appreciate your emails and your delivery here at work
Very clean and professional. The employees were also very knowledgeable and able to answer a lot of our questions without being pushy or trying to sell us more than what was needed. Highly recommended!
Helped by Zack and was the best bud-tender I've had really introduced us to some stuff we've never heard before and really excited to come back!
I was thrown off by the name, location, and coffee shop appearance; however, I was satisfied when I was done.Clean, safe, and inviting. Excellent customer service, good product selection, and decent prices. I am not in the area frequently, but if I am Deli is a great spot.
THEIR PRODUCT IS GOOD! But the CUSTOMER SERVICE WAS THE WORST!! MADE ME WAIT FOR 20 mins in their curbside pick up! And then still helped the car that got there after me first. The other car was out of there in less than 5 mins. And I had to wait 20 mins and top of that had to cancel my order cause they didn't seem to care how long I had to wait or how they've made a mistake.I was a FAN till I had to experience this.
Great service! I really like the products- great quality. Daniel was awesome. Very personable and super helpful. He delivered in a timely manner and made sure I was satisfied with my order!
Always love coming here. Friendly service throughout the entire process. Quick and easy first time sign up. Never a long wait. Bomb buds at good prices. We try something new everytime because the quality is consistent! Fresh and tastey! Will be back again and again. Thanks to Eric and Kianu/Keanu (sp?) for always providing an awesome experience.
My first time. Pretty easy to figure out. They were very helpful. The driver Darren was very nice and patient. I'll definitely buy again.
Good customer service . The weed is good but I'm a heavy smoker & only the Alien OG did the job the best . Great customer service and very clean !
I found Caliva through Yelp and loved it! Their online order system is easy to use and convenient for pickup curbside . They have good options to choose from and staff is very friendly and helpful. Prices are reasonable as well.
Been going there for a minute now. Gave the cute bud tender with beautiful brows & plugs my number lol Great service over all . Quality bud.
I really like this place. It is so easy to shop. Just like the neighbor Corner store. I really recommend this place. Zack has good bud service, and he's super cool. You are in good hands.
Cameron came through with the proper recs. Definitely our go to at this swank new spot.
Best dispensary and only dispensary I will be going to. I love the fact that they have curbside pickup (please never take that away), it's so convenient and much safer. Staff are all very friendly.
Best cannabis delivery service! fast arrival and best products for medical or recreational use. The best for quality and time
I will start by saying service was good and quality was good however the reason for the three stars is I was disappointed to find huge stems, like huge, if everything is pre-weighed for accuracy or whatever I get it but if your giving pre-weighed 3.5 with a tax of almost 15$ I should have .5 in stems. I guess the benefit of other shops while they aren't "legit" is that if you get an eighth it's an eighth. Good quality but I could find this over the bridge and get double with what I paid here.
This is the absolute best place in all the area! Great design, friendly and professional staff, easy in-and-out, a HUGE selection and the best prices across the board. The DELI is my new go-to for flowers for sure!
Went here for a Stiiizy pod and OMG its the cutest shop I've ever been to. It looks like a little bakery lol but they have really good deals. You get 20% off for your first visit and plus every time you go you start to get rewards with your phone number. I've never been to a shop with rewards! They're Stiiizys were also way cheaper then anywhere else. Usually pay like 35-45 bucks for a 1/2 ended up paying $26! The staff was amazing. Even the security in the front and back were super nice! Definitely would recommend to the homies! Coming here again!
Zack was very helpful! Definitely going to come back new shop had the best cbd in town
Super friendly staff even the security , I love the cleanliness and organization. Real classy place lol with knowledgeable and professional people running it.
Love everything the decor the customer service the prices oh my god ! 100/10 recommend
This is hands down my most favorite place to go to. In fact its the only one i go to now. Super amazing staff! Always ready to help guide you on the best way to medicate. I have never been let down with anything I have bought. And with the pandemic right now they go above and beyond to make you feel comfortable and knowing they keep the place clean. The owner is also super nice and friendly which makes a big difference it explains why he has such an amazing staff. Thank you guys for always taking care of me! *Robyn*
First time visit. This spot couldn't be anymore pleasant. Super clean environment and EVERYONE, including security guards, were friendly as can be. Thanks Jasmine for your help.
This place is legit! Great brands, security, atmosphere. Knowledgeable sales Anthony C especially appreciate the POS system recording my visits and rewarding my loyalty with point system. Good stuff!!!
Went in about two weeks ago and was helped by an awesome associate named Eric. He was incredibly kind and knowledgeable and everything he suggested turned out perfect. Would highly recommend this spot and give their staff a warm 10 out of 5 star review for just being awesome!
Love this place they have a little bit for everybody's budget salesperson are so awesome Jasmine what's my salesperson she had a lot of knowledge about all the products in the store thanks I'll be coming back.
I downloaded an app called Paytender while in Caliva. Took me 2 seconds. I was able to link my bank account to the app and then pay without any fee. The ATM fees drive me crazy. I pay a dispensary $3, then my own bank charges me $3! So I pay $6 for a $20 purchase... that's a 30% vig! This Paytender was FREE! So good. From now on I'm only going places where I can use Paytender to pay. FYI for anyone interested you can download it at paytender.com.
RANDY BLUE! This is for you youngin. Gave myself a couple hours to figure out IF I should leave a Review as many times I've been at Deli's. 1st, People inside, Customer Service is Great. Lela? is Wonderful. But there Security Staff are n have been DISRESPECTFUL n today I have a name. His name is RANDY BLUE, young dark African American n of course Armed. I'm the only only car in the parking lot (with a car side client in handicapped) n it took forever to get inside. Lil Latino Sec Guard knew it n apologized for the delay. It was appreciated Vato. Then he n another guy switched places. It was RANDY BLUE. I didn't say anything to RANDY BLUE. RANDY BLUE didn't say anything to me. Another 5-10min., RANDY BLUE tells me to go in. I did. RANDY BLUE waits for me to walk past him bout 10ft n RANDY BLUE says in a Sarcastic manner "Attitude." WTF did I do??? WTH did I say to you RANDY BLUE??? Could have responded on the spot. I should've responded. But I thought the better of it at the time. But I thought the better of it at the time. These "youngsters with guns" think they can say or do anything. No sense of Professionalism. No sense of Accountability. N since they've Been allowed to behave in an UnProfessional manner maybe it's because of a lack of Leadership from the Management. What do you say Jane? And this Ridiculous policy of clients holding a drivers license and flipping it over and turning at the right way for it to be scanned if not blah blah blah is no excuse for your Security Day Camp to get an attitude with your clients either (big dark African American). Yes I'm calling you out too! How about the security guards wear gloves and receive the license n for them to handle the license anyway they want so they can scan it in an easy and PROFESSIONAL MANNER? How about adding some maturity on your security staff. Your business needs it. They can handle a gun, but they can't handle putting on gloves. Get the idea Security Staff is working under "their own leadership " n Not the Establishment. Okay, let's hear it because this Regular Client IS coming back.
So happy with our experience at Deli. The customer service we received from Anthony was great. He answered our specific questions and gave us great recommendations. The prices there are great and lower than other local dispensaries. They also have house made products for decent prices. Will definitely be going back!!! Thank you again DELI
I found this place by chance. Started because I was in a bind and needed an accessory they had on hand. Kept bombarding me with emails. Willing to give them a chance, I came in to actually shop. I was very surprised by the aesthetic of the store. The staff that day was extra nice, I think it helped I dropped a pretty dime. They have curbside, they actually carry very decent flower. The are licensed. It was beauty. Today all of that was undone by the short-sighted person you hired to represent your management. I understand rules, but do not pin blame on me when your staff has allowed me to curbside in the past with my family in the car. I definitely understand your "concern" for your liability. However your lack of respect, your mediocre inability to formulate an amicable solution is astounding. It was as easy as: we understand this may have happened in the past, but can you please exit? Please park outside, you are welcomed to walk in and pick-up your order. So simple. Do not raise your voice at me. Please do not mansplain to me why I am wrong. Please just stop. I am unwilling to continue to do business with your company. The choice has and will always be mine. Ps. Stock up. One can not buy products you do not have. Beyond disappointed.
This is about the night time security, it is Thursday April 8th. I showed up at 8:54pm and the security guard in the back wouldn't let me in, saying its 9pm and we close at 9pm. I showed him my watch saying 8:54pm and he again says they close at 9pm. I'm explaining to him it's not 9pm yet but he still saying they close at 9pm. This argument took 2minutes I left at 8:56pm. Please tell me why it still wasn't 9pm, yet he wasn't letting me in? In which I come all the time and every other security guard knows me except a few and this one little short guy with glasses thought he was the shit, but too bad he doesn't know how to tell TIME!8:54-8:56pm is not 9pm!!
Eli M was super helpful for our first time purchase! Answered any questions we had and was super helpful with the payment process.
I purchased two eighths through this delivery service. Their website stated the two eights I was purchasing tested at 33% and 34%. When I received my order I gave the driver my money and tipped him. I then went in to my house opened my order and saw one flower had a 28% that's absolutely NOT what I purchased, the second flower tested at 30% AGAIN NOT WHAT I ORDERED!!! I called back and they offered me a pathetic excuse of an apology, and eventually HUNG UP ON ME!!! WOW seriously!?? You screw me over and give me a lower percentage weed and then hang up on me when I call you out on your weak excuse of trying to make it better!! The most horribly ran shop I have ever dealt with and I HIGHLY advise you to not spend your money here. There's far better places to go to that do NOT FALSELY ADVERTISE and inflate their THC percentages!!
Super clean.Friendly Staff.Great Products.Gift Certificates available. Free delivery with minimum spend.Ordering online for pickup is def the way to go to bypass the line that sometimes forms outside.Only reason I didn't give them a 5 is because sometimes the price is a bit high compared to other shops in the neighborhood.
This was my first time coming here, and definitely see myself coming back. On the outside, the place looks like an actual deli. So when you see security guards outside of it your first thought is, 'they must have great sandwiches.' The entire staff were cordial and friendly. Rene, my bud tender, was very patient and didn't rush me. He could tell it was my first time and went out of his way to help me out. It's also refreshing to see people who like what they do. It leads to a more welcoming and hospitable environment. There weren't any sketchy people hanging around which is a testament to the excellent security staff.
How bold of this place to just blatantly rip me off. Just take a look at the photo of the receipt and see for yourself. So the subtotal was $22.40. The CA excise tax is at 15% which means that I should've paid an extra .15($22.40)=$3.36. Tell me why they charged me $3.65? They also overcharged me with the 9.5% tax. Now let's look at how much extra money I paid in tax which amounts to 30.61-22.40=8.21. The amount of $8.21 shows that I ended up paying 8.21/22.40=0.3665 or 36.65% in taxes which is more than what the bellflower taxes call for (which should be 33%). Finally, take a look at the top which shows that I even should've gotten a 30% discount so why did I end up paying way more than I should've? Never coming here again and I caution anyone who considers coming here to take a look at their receipt prior to leaving this establishment.
Delivery Came in clutch!First time trying deli and the delivery driver Omar was super helpful answered all my questions regarding deli and the range of products they carry, gave me some good suggestions I will most def be stopping by and pick up some of there in-house flower!
Amazing!!! Finally got to the brick and mortar location and will go again.There's a lot of security which is great. It felt safe and secure.Parked in the lot out back and then headed in. Waited for just a minute or two before we were called in and then we had our own server. Blown away by the choice. I was buying topicals and cbd. They had lots to choice from and cbd for pets too! Every in this place is thought out for the best customer experience- love it!I would recommend this place. And I would go again.
Dope spot great deals excellent products. Ask for Chi she is very knowledgeable and pretty friendly. Great customer service around the board!
MGMT Said Security would "Apologize" to me face-to-face. NEVER happened. Would you be surprised???? Emails went back and forth, it never came to fruition. If you're ADA, disabled, be prepared to be humiliated by security/staff. If you have experienced ADA violations as others have, feel free to Msg me as others have. CALIVA cannot get away with this. Private msg me and I will supply you with an email so that we can gather more information from you.
I heard about Caliva and wanted to give it a try. I ordered a couple items around 6PM on Saturday (they had an amazing selection for my area. Had every single item that I wanted that I'd usually have to drive to another city for). They only had the option to deliver next day on Sunday with specific time windows, which I didn't mind at all.I was notified by text when the driver was on the way and the ability to track them. My place is a bit but complicated to access but the driver made it to my front door without any issues. He made sure that I checked the bag to ensure all items were there (they were) and he wished me luck on the smash tournament that was going on. I would purchase again!
Quality products... IF they are not expired!!!Good luck trying to get a refund.Customer service wasn't too helpful.Great delivery service!
This place is my go to ! I recommend this place to everyone I interact with. They are always good help and their delivery services is amazing! I had David tonight & by far he was my favorite he was chill & seemed happy to be doing his job. the tree here is fire too 10/10 recommend.
First time in Cali and we stopped here and man I'm glad we did! We got one of the coolest bud tenders with tons of knowledge to basically walk us through whatever we needed. We made another trip back a few days later and again everything was on point no complaints. Highly recommend everyone stopping here this place is everything your looking for in a cannabis dispensary experience.
I have been well taken care of and treated with respect every single time I have come here. Their knowledge and recommendations have always been on point, and I have been pleased with my selections. I hope I can meet everyone eventually, however at this time I would like to recognize Claire, Chi, and Jess for providing a great experience.
The best dispensery in the South Bay. Excellent product selection. Knowledgeable and friendly staff. These people know their weed! Bonus: 20% discount for military, veterans, and seniors. What's not to like?
This place is always clean and the staff is really nice and very knowledgeable. Every time I come I usually get a different person and each time their recommendations are always a hit since I always want to try something different.
I'm not the biggest consumer of cannabis but I've had nothing but pleasant experiences with Caliva. I don't know how they are on prices, I'm sure some places might be better, but the hospitality I've received when getting deliveries has been second to none. Excellent customer service, fantastic products!
I was used to buying from delivery services, but after meeting Chi, a budtender that used to be a caretaker before she worked at Caliva. She was an absolute angel guiding me through their stizzy inventory. I already knew before hand what I wanted and I'm already quite the connoisseur, so nothing in terms of the bud nothing was new to me. The home-y feeling of this shop, easy pathfinders, and how kind the budtenders really stuck with me since I've never been to a dispensary before. Great people, great bud.
All I have to say is Jenn is AMAZING! You could feel her energy from far away. I was actually waiting in line when I told the customer behind me that he could go first so that I could get Jenn as my consultant (this is without having met her before), and boy, I am glad I did -- I was really nervous because it was my first time in the store and I was unsure of which products to get, but she answered all my questions with enthusiasm, she didn't even get annoyed one slightest bit when I asked her 20+ questions, she was honestly just this bright ball of energy -- highly highly recommend her!My only complaint is that this place is cash only and I think it's a bit on the expensive side.
Not from town, was referred here by a friend. I gave them 4 stars because i walked in and didn't know what to do, there was no one to greet me and/ or inform me what to do. A customer explain to me what to do. I will say first time customers get 30% off their entire purchase. Angel helped me and my dad out , he was very knowledgeable, also very informational. He educated us and knew all about the strains . He was helpful and made it very experience easy and a breeze. Will definitely be back looking for angel! Unfortunately they don't allow phone calls or videos in the store for privacy reasons, so i wasn't able to get pictures or videos for Yelp.
I bought a new PAX-3 because my PAX-2 finally died (both great products that i recommend). I mistakenly bought a resign for the PAXera, and luckily when I purchased it (and I wish I could remember her name) made a point of telling my I had a 3-day return with no questions asked.It took me a day or two, and some You-tube searching, to figure out my mistake. I called Caliva and I had great customer service & headed to the store for the return.Rebecca helped me as did Steve (hope I got that right). Anyway, I was kind of feeling like an idiot because it was so obvious that the cartridge wouldn't work with my PAX3 .......... I left feeling great, return happily processed and accepted.So I want to personally thank Rebecca & Steve, but also note that from the member reception through the final sale Caliva's customer service has always been best in class!!!Thanks to all,Bob
Solid business that is consistently well stocked, has good sales and products and unlike many of their competitors can actually fill an order in an honest and timely manner. 420 this year was apparently chaotic for them and their website crashed early in the day and despite my order being completed almost 12 hours before they shuttered their website prematurely I sat home all day waiting for a delivery that never arrived and was eventually "cancelled" via email ?! Man was I pissed off ! I called and eventually got ahold of staff that explained what happened and apologized and had me reorder my stuff. I called, complained and was sent back to square one the next day but unlike other local delivery vendors (like Amuse) Caliva still had shelves well stocked, they honored their sale prices and delivered everything on time and as promised ! It was an unusual 420 ordeal this year but all is now well and we are back in business ! Well done Caliva ! Well done. Highly recommend for in store purchases or home delivery !
3 solid stars and will start with the cons, nothing unreasonable. Just feels really mediocre. Have done 2 pick ups with Caliva, via online. The check in process is a major waist of time, this needs to be modified for a better experience for the customer. 1 Check in at the security2 Check in at the front desk after the first check in3 Wait at the regular shopping line or the pick up line this need a reboot. ok. The pick up line is to the left of the front door, right of the security check in. It's pointless to have a line for pickup outside and on the inside after the front desk check in. That in itself wastes time for customer experience, the employees are not helpful in guiding customers to the check out line for pick up. Caliva only gets 3 stars for product, variety, safety as in security and quality. Other than that I really do feel like I am shopping at a Safeway with average people and rules that just don't make any sense. Enso forever.+-Security check in.Huge parking lot.Quality product, good promos, yelp discount._"If you can do what you do best and be happy, you're further along in life than most people." --Leonardo DiCaprio
Soooo, first time going to a cannabis store all by myself. Quite an experience! As a newbie I was pretty excited! I stood inline and instead of getting the bud tenders I was assisted by one of the associates who hands folks their phone orders. I've had Khana when my honey bought it so I asked for 2 packages one of fast acting and one regular. He asked what kind. Dumbass me says well they're all the same- what ever... I get home and my honey points out that I have a bunch of Indica.... Sigh, no returns. This is great for sleeping but not for life. Store policy: No returns. My mistake is YOUR learning opportunity!!! Hooray for you :-) As a newbie I should have asked more questions and better understood what I was buying.
Update: Got a call and was issued some rewards for staying loyal even after that incident. Only now I have been basically banned from making delivery requests due to my ID not being verified anymore? Found out a note was put on my account saying I can no longer order delivery due to delivery issues. Only pick up. I don't understand how I get flagged for this when the delivery issue was not me. It was the delivery drivers you sent to deliver my order. Not all are bad however the last few that have delivered have had attitude of some sort or just neglected to deliver my order. Now I'm completely done with Caliva and how they have handled this situation. I was blocked from someone's number on their end that was supposed to be "delivery help" & now I can't even make a simple delivery request or a PICK UP request! How the hell? I'm so confused. Whatever, I'll be purchasing my goods elsewhere. You're welcome for my business since 2019. NOTE: My gf orders delivery from them & has noooo issues. They come to the same area, some address, everything but I can't order.
Excellent Delivery Service and Product Selection. You can easily place an order on line and have it delivered the same day. Be sure to tip your drivers!!
Caliva is always consistently a positive shopping experience. My partner and I came in the other day without any specific idea of what we wanted, but fortunately we were helped by Chi! She gave us a lot of great recommendations at different price points and kept us laughing the whole time.Thanks Chi for an extra eventful visit and all your recommendations have been fantastic!
I don't usually give reviews but Becca was great! Once I told her what I needed she gave a huge range of selection. She didn't push me towards anything and I greatly appreciated that. Thank you Becca for making my first time to Caliva enjoyable.
I haven't been to Caliva in a while because of my last review but let me say today was a different story. I had an online order and I had the pleasure of talking to Steve, when I say he restored my faith in humanity' and customer service. He went beyond to tell me what I needed that helps cancer and also Steve also took the time out again to show me the product so I can remember what to by next when I stop by. Steve was a 11/10 in customer service I will continue to come back to Caliva because of Steve's excellent customer service.
I've been to this location a few times now and even though it's a little bit of a distance fromwhere I live, I love coming here! Inside it's super cute and clean! The staff are all super friendly and helpful. Especially Garett, who assisted me and helped me find exactly what I was looking for. Definitely will keep coming back. Also, not to mention this place has some dope prices (; 10/10 recommend!
The reviews did not lie! I stopped by this place while in town and the customer service was on a whole other level when greeted at the front desk, felt so welcoming! Joseph (I believe was his name) was so patient when asking questions as well as informative of all of their products! Will definitely comeback when visiting again!
Nice place and nice help! Thanks Yousef for helping me and providing recommendations!
I placed an order for delivery. I received 2 expired edibles! When I reached out to get this resolved they said that they cannot issue a refund/ exchange. They offered me a credit for less than what I paid! I still haven't received any credit. It's complete BS. It's not my fault they gave me expired merchandise.
I received a 30% discount for being a first time customer! When you're buying an ounce that adds up!! Bud tenders were super helpful and friendly.Tip: it's cash only so either have cash on hand or use the atm machine.
I really do like Caliva they have always been pretty good but this last order was very frustrating. I have a high tolerance so I try to get the strongest THC content on the products I buy, usually concentrates. I order online and this last time I received an item that said 94% THC. I get home 30 miles away and find out it's only 79%. It was the most expensive one too. PLEASE ONLINE CALIVA PEOPLE get it right because it's important!!! Thank you to retail for helping me out as much as you could!!
Caliva is probably one of the best dispensaries in San Jose. They have a huge selection and variety to pick and chose from which is nice since you get try out a lot of new products. I placed a curbside order pickup and was satisfied with the customer service. The lady who attended me was awesome and super cool! The wax I bought was straight fire. It was smooth and had a nice aroma to it.
I had a delivery a few evenings ago, and the driver could not have been more helpful, patient and completely pleasant! I wish I could remember his name because he deserves heaps of praise. There was an issue with my PIN number and the company Caliva uses to accept payment from. (Hypur) Anyway, I was unable to use my bank account after all, and luckily had a little cash. The driver called his supervisor, and they worked with me so I was able to get most of my order. Talk about EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE!! I felt terrible that the money I had set aside for the drivers tip had to go towards my order. This kind of service is pretty rare in the world we live in today. Because of the way I was treated, I will be a loyal customer to Caliva instead of shopping around.
Caliva is the only dispensary I go to. The staff is always friendly and really helpful. They don't rush you at all to make your decision at the register. The last time I visited with my friend, we got in our car to leave and found the battery was dead. We asked the nearest employee, Garett S., if he happened to have jumper cables. He didn't but he immediately got on his walkie talkie to ask for assistance. The woman who responded on the walkie didn't have any so Garett went to talk to security. He was able to get ahold of a portable battery and ended up jump starting our car himself, since neither my friend nor I knew how. He had left his post to help us and was incredibly gracious. He went above and beyond to help us out for nothing in return - we are so grateful! Thank you!!
had my stiiizy delivered to me and received great customer service. Anthony C was my delivery driver and was really quick and really great to talk to. we were just talking about things we had in common and some products he wanted to recommend me in the future for purchasing and i will do just that! really great guy and i will definitely be ordering here again. thank you caliva and thank you anthony for the service!
Thanks Chiara for all your help and suggestions. We really appreciated it. Will definitely be back.
The deliver driver Diane in the orange car was so friendly and easy to spot! She called me ahead of time to let me know her ETA and reminded me when I need to renew my license so I never have any order issues. Thank you so much for the great experience! Keiko
I wish I could give our budtender Becca more than 5 stars. She was absolutely amazing and made our visit memorable. Thanks for spending so much time explaining everything to us.
They were all so nice when I went for my first time. Becca helped me and was super nice. I will most definitely be back. They also give first time discounts!
My experience was AMAZING. My dad has been suffering with chronic muscle pain for many years, which has lead him to depression. FINALY!! after years, I was able to convince him to try a Cannabis approach for his body aches. He comes from a very conservative generation, so, I defiantly needed someone who spoke SPANISH to educate him and answer his questions. We meet KEVIN, he was super informative and I was super thankful he spoke Spanish and assured my dad that he was going to feel better physically with a more relaxed mind set. We bought CBD oil and, also a CBD with THC oil. My dad felt comfortable and Kevin was beyond professional, we never felt rushed. Not even doctors have given the amount of empathy Kevin gave my dad. My dad woke up today super refreshed and more happy than usual. I hope this finally helps him manage his body aches, but today was a great start, thats why I'm writing this review. Thank you Kevin.
It was my first time visiting this place let alone a dispensary to be quite honest. My first time experience was smooth and was guided throughly by their great customer service! As quarantine is in full effect, many are left home with nothing to do. This place has been quite packed the times I've passed by with lines on two sides of the building. It can take up to an hour waiting to get to the main lobby and another 10 minutes to just go inside. I assume everyone needs something to help keep them sane during these stressful times. Remember this place is cash only. I obviously did not pay attention to this when I spotted this on Yelp. Luckily, they had an ATM machine inside, hooray for ATM withdrawal fees! I'll definitely be coming back to pick up more goodies. The edibles I purchased were so good.
Becca was amazing in all the rights ways! She was patient and friendly upon my arrival and helped me decide what was the best option for my needs and wants. I am so glad I have a dispensary that I feel comfortable walking into and have Becca to help me make the right choice.Love my Becca:)
It was my first time at this location and I love it! I had a great experience: they take COVID precautions, limit the amount of people inside the shop. The space is super clean, and the people are super friendly. My budtender Alex was super patient and helpful since it was my first time. Tip: $5 off first timer 20% yelp discount
Use Caliva for sure. They are so kind, responsive, helpful, and have the cutest delivery bags. My delivery person was super cool and patient when i had forgotten to put my apt number in. I had a question about cartridges and had some user error on the app and a representative actually called me to help me out! Talk about above and beyond. Love this place and love these people! 10/10
I have been going here for a while, and while I have a lot of options for my needs, I keep finding myself back here. Staff is always very helpful, knowledgable and a pleasure to work with. I just went in and dealt with Chaira who was on her second day, but bent over backwards to look in the back for something specific and really made me feel taken care of. I would highly recommend everyone come here for anything and everything they need!
Coming from the East Bay, I'm used to the efficient customer service and wide selection of Harborside. Caliva came up on Yelp as highly rated, and my SJ friend and I decided to stop by on Friday. We came around 7pm and waited about 20 minutes to get in. Once you get in they ask you to register on their iPads, and that's where they get your info to start sending spam texts your phones. Once registered, you sit and wait another 10 minutes to be called into their showroom. Inside the showroom, you wait in another line to be helped by the budtender. You are not allowed to browse the aisles by yourself. I appreciate their social distancing precautions with 4 customers in the showroom at a time. However, I felt the registering part was unnecessary. Our budtender was somewhat helpful. We were there specifically for CBD products, which they had a decent variety of but most were mixed with THC. They didn't have any pure CBD products available. I picked up some 20:1 CBD:THC products per the recommendation of the budtender. I bought the edibles for my husband which he said were okay, but he's has better. They're cash only, can't use debit card like most dispensaries. You can download some app they use that's similar to Venmo. Overall, Caliva was an okay experience, but don't think I'll be back because there are better dispensaries out there.
I always have the best experience here the bartender are really nice. Sam is one of my favorite ppl the she's always smiling and happy
Super awesome service and this place Is so calming! The environment is nice and everything is organize and the workers were very helpful!
Always a great experience! Beautiful interior. Safe. Online pickup service runs smoothly. The bud tenders are helpful and patient. I suggest signing up for the rewards program. Cash or cash app only. No cards. Biggest selection I've seen in San Jose. Caliva is sure to impress.
Over the Labor Day weekend, Caliva advertised certain products at 30% off. I placed an order for a product that they had on their website. I got a confirmation that my order was "submitted" and that it was "only a matter of time before it would be packed and ready to be picked up."Subsequently, they unilaterally cancelled the order because they were "out of stock". The. They refused to honor the sale price when they got the product in stock.That's pretty crappy customer service - advertising a product you should know you don't have in stock and then refusing to honor the advertised price.I am curious as to whether anyone else has had a similar experience.
It happened again. The delivery arrived without taxes being removed ... and they tried to tell me there process is to remove the tax on each individual item ... but there are still taxes that, as a state card holder, I am exempted from. They stole my money last time, and refuse to give it back. I tried giving them another chance ... foolish me.Jane C: thanks for contacting me, but I find no option to direct message you. I believe Caliva knows about this and should be able to ID and reach out to ME, instead of me to you. Probably one of the few orders refused today?
3/31 So last time I came here was about a week ago for A curbside pick up and there was an issue because I had my daughter in the car I didn't read the fine print so I guess that's my bad but I was still a tad irritated. Today I came in and was helped by marissel she was very polite and informative she was very refreshing from my last visit other than that caliva is great good product nice staff.
6/5 would highly recommend. Clean, modern dispensary with friendly prices and staff. The GOOD:+ They have a dedicated parking lot and an easy check-in process. + Tuesdays = Free Taco Voucher with purchases above $35 and Thursday is when edibles are on sale! + Super friendly cashiers. The reviews before me have mentioned this and I have to echo how awesome all of them are.+ Even without the sale, I found their prices to be uber fair like $15 for their PLUS gummies.+ You can order delivery apparently! There's a 20% off if you use their yelp code lol. Great value.The MEH:- Nothing. Great experience start to finish.
Came to get CBD. The guy didn't even try to look for what I was looking for. Although on their website is says they have it in stock he seemed too lazy to go in the back and check. I am so disappointed. I had great services from most of the people there but he really made it worse.
This is a very professional dispensary, from the point of entry and check in, to the purchasing process, to their kiosk and curbside pick up; they excel where others fail. They carry a huge variety of brands for fresh buds, concentrates and edibles, but their prices can tend to be higher than some others in the area. You definitely get what you pay for, just keep an eye on prices and daily deals, as they will save you a huge amount of money. One of the main things I love about this dispensary is the fact that they still have a welcome gift for new customers. They always hook new patients up with a coupon for 30% off of your first purchase and an additional coupon for 30% off of one item.
Caliva was a new experience for me, I never in a million years thought I would need to go to a cannabis dispensary shop. The shop is really nice and put together, everything is organized and in order. The employees were very friendly and helpful with suggestions for me to try. Came in for some topical pain relief. The young man behind the counter was helpful and showed me a few selections to choose from. So went with the stronger stuff for a $1.00 more. Left with a positive experience of what a dispensary can do for you. Got home rubbed the cream on my leg and within 5-10 minutes I felt much better and able to walk with minimal discomfort. Will definitely recommend this place to everyone over 18 yrs of age of course, and I will be returning in the future for pain relief cream.
Product is awesome, prices are some of the highest I've seen post tax, delivery has been 2-3 hours both times I tried Caliva. Will be sticking with kushagram and hyper wolf, but it was worth a shot.
3 stars for the fact that it took nearly 10 minutes to get my curbside pick up order on a Sunday morning when I was the only person waiting in curbside and there wasn't even a line to go inside. This isn't the first time I've had to wait a long time either, but in previous visits there were more people so it was excusable.
I was unsure of what I'd need walking in but I presented my circumstances to Annika and she was able to find the perfect solution for me. Thank you so much for your help and patience!
Great staff. Friendly and knowledgeable. Chiara helped me find some substitutes when they didn't have what I came in for. The Substitute worker great!! Thx Chiara!!
Security is polite and personable. Check-in staff is welcoming and budtenders are always great. All staff is masked. I have been in here a few times now and have come in for different items each time. Always feel welcome, never rushed. Good selection of products, their house products are very good, even their entry pre-rolls are good. They honor veterans with a discount daily! Recommend Nickels! Easy, low cost fun.
We got there 30-45 mins before closing I believe. Small like outside as they're practicing good practices to social distance everyone. Only two people in the lobby at a time, and I believe same for the purchasing showroom. We were greeted by a friendly security guy at the entrance and an amazing and friendly beautiful being at the front desk. Wish I could remember his name but he said he had only started about three days ago on Saturday. He was so excited and got us all signed up and asked if it was our first time. We mentioned yes, were visiting from out of town. He had mentioned to us to let the person helping us know it's our first time. So I was a bit excited, like what's going to happen? LolWe got in and was helped by a young lady who seems very unpleased to help us. That is the only reason I knocked this down a star. She just didn't seem interested in helping us. We aren't complicated, but she didn't engage AT ALL! We had to do all the questions to see what it was we might want to try or have. We had told her the gentleman at the front mentioned we should tell you this is our first time. She didn't say or do anything about it. She placed our items in a paper bag and was basically done. Didn't show or explain any of the goodies in the case, or what they had to offer. Just meh, we had asked how much it was to get a cute reusable bag was and she just gave us one...but it seemed like everyone else was just originally given one. Not sure what was wrong maybe she was just having a bad day. Hope her night got better :( Looks like they have an online service so if you don't want to go in you can also order for pickup or delivery. Highly recommend this place regardless our last half experience leaving here.Also, you can't miss this place, it's beautifully painted and labeled lol I love the vibe here!
Love this place. Shoutout to Avery for hooking me up with great recommendations. I needed regular flower for myself and a birthday gift and he nailed it with what he picked out for me. Thanks, homie!
I ordered for their promo today and the order went through and said ready for pick up... so I came to pick up my order. Everything I ordered was in the bag but then they said that some items were only limited to 1 per person. The website did not state that at all and the order went through. They should've honored the order I placed.
I loved the overall service however Becca was extremely helpful and rigides me with the answers to my questions and made sure to establish want I'd like as a consumer. Becca is extremely insightful and well informative.
Upon recommendation from the responder on here, I wrote a nice, detailed email to general manager a week ago to the address provided. No return, no response of any kind. Just as well.
This is a first class operation. They take protocol and rules very seriously and follow them to a tee. The budtenders were very helpful with advice and recommendations. Their prices for the gummies and vape cartridges seemed consistent with stores in San Francisco. For $120 I got 5 packages of gummies and a vape cartridge.
I just want to give a big shout out to the delivery customer service in San Jose they are outstanding they help me with every detail out there they were able to cancel my 1st order still apply my $15 coupon that I had on the reorder and they are just so polite I wish every customer service out there were the same As caliva thank you very much.... I can't thank you enough......I would recommend this place 100%
I have very very bad experience in this job I asked you recommend me for good cannabis and they give me very shit bad quality And I tried to change the day and don't want to change my dog and this site is gusting
Good prices. Sometimes the staff is very helpful. If you are medical this is the place for you. But it is best to know what products you need going in. Trust me.
I ordered for curbside pick up on 06/17 and was never contacted to be notified of whether or not my order was ready. Their customer support person, Bill, didn't even bother responding further to me. Order has been "packed" since Wednesday 06/17 but as of today 06/23 no confirmation on whether or not it's ready for pick up. I even called to ask if it was ready. They told me to not come until I received a text/email confirmation. I never received anything. They had their chances to fix things and make it up. But they didn't care to. I truly just wanted to try curbside for the convenience. But too bad they kinda suck and this was not a convenient or pleasant experience at all.
I'm not a user, but I took my friend who was a user and was quickly impressed by the attitude of the people working at the 7th St. location, the front desk girl Alex was happy and very informative of the process, she let us know that it was busier than usual and that we had to wait in the lobby for a little bit, once we entered, it was a whole new world, the bud tender knew so much information about the products and what to get my friend as soon as he asked. Overall a great experience.
Prices are a bit high for a legal shop, product was clean and exactly as described. Would order again as we have limited options. Now to the lows. Delivery is not accurate and continues to get later and later as your delivery gets to be the next one. They make you sign up for their online email program and they blast you non stop, when you try and cancel you find out your signed up for 2 different email advertising programs that continue when you unsubscribe. Would give a solid 3.5 stars without the email bs. Take me off your advertisement list and I'll change up this review.
Came in to town for a girls trip and Garett S set us up with everything we needed. He was super knowledgeable and helpful in finding what would suit us best. We had a lot of questions and never felt rushed.
I am a total square, but went to Caliva in search of pain relief for spouse who's having some acute health issues, isn't getting adequate pain management from the docs, and is in off/on, excruciating, consider-going-to-the-ER-level pain until at least the next appointment, in two weeks. This place is very clean and organized, and everyone who works here seems cheerful and friendly. Note that you do need to show ID to the security guard outside to enter, then need to create an account on the kiosks if you're a new customer (incl giving your phone number and email), then need to "check in" where you hand over your ID, I assume to associate it with/validate your account). After all that, you get buzzed into the main room to stand in line for an available associate, or pickup your preorder. It felt very security-conscious. It is CASH only (there is an ATM).Austin was super friendly, patient and helpful, discussing our circumstances and explaining/showing me different options. The 1:1 gummies I brought home have been a HUGE help already. We are so grateful to live in CA and have options like this now, and relative to rx meds in the American healthcare system, it was so inexpensive too! Re covid, you must be masked to enter (tho you do need to pull your mask down outside so security can verify your ID), Caliva is still at reduced indoor capacity, all employees are masked (altho I did see one woman with her mask below her nose), and there are plexiglass barriers in front of each register. You can of course do pickup and stay in your car or get delivery if you know what you need.Overall just a really positive experience, thank you!
They flagged my account over an issue that wasn't my fault. I tried getting in contact with them and I was just told they would look into it but never bothered to reach back out. I've been a customer for a very long time and always recommended people here until now. Don't waste your time with delivery, just go in person.
This review is primarily for the delivery service. Put order in last night and chose 9am-12pm delivery slot. I called at 9am because they sent a single email to confirm and that its. Not a robust system of confirmation. They said to call if I didn't get a text from driver by 12:30pm; they are backlogged. Ok- so its a 4 hr window like cable. Got it. NOPE- 12:45p and no text. Called again and they then say that I have not even been Assigned a driver, so sorry and did I want to do 5pm-10pm or curbside pick up. So; if it was going to be 5-8 hr delivery time; they should let customers know earlier. Why even schedule? I cancelled the order, then I ordered through a company my sister recommended (which also had discounts- Caliva doesn't have any good deals - expensive -) and they were to me IN ONE HOUR. If your going to not deliver anywhere near the time- at least offer a discount. They got 2 stars because when I went into the location on previous occasion, the budtender was super helpful and the facility was clean. I DO NOT RECOMMEND FOR DELIVERY.
I'm not much of a weed aficionado. If I do partake, it's on a rare occasion. And then when I do, you can just call me a "one hit wonder." It's the same with alcohol so call me cheap. In my world, it's not a bad thing since I don't need much. When I did visit Caliva, it wasn't for recreational purposes at all. It was for a CBD/ THC balm for knee pain. Ever since I tore my ACL, my left knee has been on and off giving me issues. My usual "go-to" is Ibuprofen but even that gets tiresome especially when you start to feel like you take it more often than you need to. When someone mentioned this stuff to me, I was more than game to try it. The experience here was fast, friendly and efficient. After checking in with your ID at the front door, you are directed to walk in and then sign in on an iPad with your info so it's all saved up in their system. Then you walk up to the smiling front desk agents who direct you into another set of doors. No cameras allowed they say. After walking through the doors, you fall into an organized line where you wait for a "bud tender" to call you up. The place is huge, spacious and filled with every kind of product imaginable-- candy, drinks, cookies (edibles), lotions, tinctures, mints, vape pens, and so much more. Merchandising genius, I say. The line moves quickly and once called up, I meet my "bud tender" and ask for exactly what I want. They show me several options of lotions and balms. I ended up going with a balm called "Dr. delights relieve" which has 125mg THC + 125mg CBD. It promises "serious pain relief + so much more." It came out to $50 for 2.5 ounces so the stuff ain't cheap. California got smart and decided to tax everyone 30%. And the results? Good, but not great. I can't say that it's taken away all of my knee pain but after about 15 minutes of rubbing it in, I can feel a little relief.
Wow! Caliva is awesome. It's a super cute atmosphere and the green wall behind the front desk is adorable, like I need!I would recommend Caliva to newcomers and "OGs" in the game. The bud tenders are very knowledgeable and can offer suggestions depending on your wellness needs. I love that everything you see online is available in real time. I was able to mark some items in my cart and then discuss them with the bud tender. I really enjoyed Caliva's Halloween Party and my $1 mystery gram! Caliva is the best of its kind!
I love this place so much and have never had a bad experience, as to why I keep coming back. Everyone who works here, even the security guards, are super friendly and welcoming. The bud tenders are knowledgeable and actually give you good and honest advice on the products. I feel safe coming inside the store as well since the pandemic, as it is a clean facility and staff are always wearing masks and gloves. I always order my products online to be picked up in the store, and if they are out of something, I always get something better in return. Please support this dispensary you will not regret it. I even have gotten my parents and boyfriend to come here!
MIRANDA!! You're awesome :) always a pleasure seeing you. I want you to know you are like a sunflower. Beautiful and happy. You bring out the best in Caliva. This place has the greatest deals and customer service. Everyone here I met so far is amazing.
This is the best cannabis delivery service in the Bay! Their customer service is impeccable. Being a frequent customer, they have always gone above and beyond to clarify any questions or help with any issue that may come up. Caliva also now offers rewards points that you can use as a discount off of your purchase, so returning customers feel even more appreciated. The drivers are almost NEVER late on their anticipated delivery time, and my experiences have always been positive as they are so kind, polite, and sociable. I wish I could give this place more stars!! Thank you Caliva!
Love this place! Everyone is super chill & good vibes all around! Highly recommend for y'all to come here!
Security is nice, whole entire store is amazing, clean, and organized. Budtender Karley especially is so special to the team, and always makes sure I get what I'm looking for by being very attentive, and detailed as well as very well versed in the products and techniques for smoking, edibles, vapes, etc. She tends to know and have information on anything theyre selling off the top of her head, and I really appreciate that because it shows shes interested in helping, eager, and helps me find what I need fast because I usually want to get in and get out as soon as possible to enjoy my purchases.Thanks again Caliva.
Very efficient place Dope in house and when you go there request Jenn very helpful
I'm very upset from the product before I open it I tried to change the bag and they told me they can't and I'm very upset of the product I don't do nothing in cost me a lot of money
Caliva is my go to spot! It's trendy, they have amazing customer service, the employees are friendly and very inviting. Most importantly, they have a large selection of products and goodies to choose from which they update and restock quite frequently.I recommend ordering online to avoid waiting in long lines during rush hours. They have a separate pick up section.
I love this dispensary don't get me wrong but the only reason why I put 3 stars it's because I don't know if it's the costumers or the staff but they take waayyy too looonnnggg and the lines are always packed but I'm sure going to say it but if customers don't know what they want and the costumers ask WAY TO MANY STUPID QUESTIONS when they already know the damn brand! they should have a separate line for them and for the people who already know what they want go by fast that is all
Chiara was very helpful and knowledgeable on helping me choose the right product. Always nothing but good vibes. I will definitely be coming back and recommend this place! It's also very helpful being able to order your stuff online and walking in and out.
The only shop I go to. The best deals for the best quality. Big shoutout to Marduk for making our holiday as great as it can be all the bud tenders are top notch but he kicks ass.
Caliva is nothing short of an experience. There's something to be said about a rigorous sign in process that makes you feel exclusive.That is the process it takes to even see the wares. First there is a security guard that checks your ID for age. Once you get in the store, you must sign up for an account with Caliva before you can enter, no exceptions. There are iPads in the front of the store for you to fill out a form with your info. Then you present your ID again, this time to the front desk staff to verify your ID and to sign you in essentially. After all this, you enter the secondary area where you can make your purchases. I know this all seems like a lot but they do have a points based loyalty program which is connected to your account so it isn't solely to track your spending habits and send you tailored offers. ;)From here there are two main routes you can go. The first is to queue up in a line to see a budtender which you can go to for consultation and advice about what kind of products they have and will ultimately ring you up. There's also a kiosk for people who have pre-ordered and are picking up. If you know what you need that definitely seems like the way to go since the line for that was a lot shorter.We were shopping on on 420 Eve partially because 420 but also because they had free Ben and Jerry's ice cream with purchase and some good deals for the holiday. On this occasion we were also trying to make a return/exchange since my friend purchased a vape pen that stopped working abruptly. Later when we checked the receipt we would see that most defective items can be returned within 3 days however we didn't have a problem getting the pen exchanged. The budtender checked with a manager who okay'ed it quickly and had the replacement ready in a flash. We also asked for a few recommendations and managed to find the right products for everyone in our party. On our way out we passed by the ice cream pick up station and left with all the right treats.
Kinda bummed out. Ordered a few things from the website for delivery. I placed my order around 830 and it didn't arrive till 1030. Everything looked cool but when I opened up the Vape box the cartridge was missing. I just paid $30 for an empty box. I paid the delivery guy cash so there isn't much I can do about it now. I left a message on the website and waiting to see if anything comes of it. Buyer beware.
Wow! They really are rockstars especially during the chaos that is COVID-19. I can't say enough good things about them, especially with how they handled their orders. Poor team has been swamped and there has been terrible weather yet they got my order to me as promptly as they could (same day as promised, just later in the day) and were updating with info when requested. Hang in there!!
IMHOHubby had ordered online for some CBD w/THC tincture (so he could utilize a 25% off coupon code). Caliva texted when the order was ready for pick-up, so we headed down to 7th St. We pulled into the parking lot and found a line of spaces dedicated for pick-up orders. Each parking slot had a number assigned to it. While we waited in the car, the walk-up line was growing with some people wearing masks, and some trying to maintain a 6 ft. distance between each other. We texted Caliva from our car that we had arrived and gave them our parking slot number. We waited maybe 10 minutes before a Caliva representative came to our car wearing mask and gloves, confirmed via driver's license that my hubby was indeed the one who placed the order, scanned the Pay Tender code from his phone, then politely said she'd return with the order. A few minutes later, our paper-bagged product was in hand and we were on our way. Easy peasy!
Today was my second time visiting Caliva and I had a great experience! The store's staff has been polite and professional both times that I have come here. I lost my previous battery that I purchased from Caliva (Eel River Organics) and was looking to purchase the same one but they did not have it there anymore. However, Tori was super cool and helped me pick out a new battery and cartridge! She gave me suggestions from a selection of batteries that I may be interested in and let me check each of them out from their boxes. I ended up getting the Moxie x Dart Battery Gold and I really like it! She also helped me pick out a new vape cartridge as well. I had little to no knowledge about the types that they had but she took the time to explain them to me. I was looking for something fruity and a hybrid so she recommended that I should get the Moxie Member Berry Liquid Moxie Dart Pod. Got to try the product out and I'm happy with my purchase! Tori was friendly and I'm glad I got her help!!
This place is great. Hands down the best customer experience always. CORRINA is hands down the most vibrant, energetic and pleasant person you will meet when you walk through the lobby doors.Thank you kindly for the outstanding customer experience
This place is so expensive and the product is just mediocre. Here, I feel like it's more about selling what looks appealing from the actual store to their products oppose to selling quality products at a fair price. I waited outside what seemed to be forever just to go inside and for there to be three customers including myself and over 10 staff members standing around talking to each other. The actual person who helped me was nice enough but I felt rushed. Being rushed is not what I wanted to feel like after waiting outside in the cold and paying taxes here up the ass. Don't be fooled by the cool looking building or the hype on Yelp.
My experience here has always been very good. The employees are all very friendly and care about providing a good experience for the customers. The atmosphere makes me always feel good to shop here. I was looking for edibles and the lady who helped me was very knowledgable in regards to all the products they offer. I really appreciate her patience in breaking down all the little details for me to choose the right product for what I'm looking for.
Friendly staff, good weed. It was busy and I really appreciated Rebecca's patience with me :-)
This is one of my go-to dispensaries! Always a clean environment, helpful staff. Most of the time I just order online and quickly just pick up my products and head on with my day. COVID Status: They are practicing good social distancing from the queue line, to indoor service, all the way to curbside pickup.Definitely recommend trying this place out, website is always up-to-date and ready to pick up as expected while ordering online for pick up
Nice place but overpriced. Only go for the first time 30% off discount and stock up. Other than that everything is overpriced. Don't be fooled by the listed prices. Other dispensaries just give you the cash price and then you'll see the weird taxes equaling what price they just told you. Here it'll say one price and they'll tell you the price and say before taxes(probably because they don't know the weird taxes too) then you'll see they it's way more than listed. So a Heavy Hitter Vape cartridge says $52 (which is lower than the average price $60) but after taxes it's $65 and change. The workers are really nice but lazy and the lines are long and TAKE FOREVER!!! Customer service makes up for how slow and lazy they work but once you realize you spent 30 plus minutes in line just to buy a vape cartridge when there was literally 5 people ahead of you, really makes you wonder were time went.(30 minutes online order not busy/ 1 hour busy online order busy) Last time I visited I gave them my cannabis card so I didn't have to pay the taxes that people have to pay that don't use marijuana for medical use and they still charged me taxes. They just said I can now but more than an ounce at a time. Other dispensaries don't charge you taxes. Yes I have given them 3 tries. Next store for me
Today I purchased Cherry Pie (Deli Greens by Caliva) Great price, for some good bud. Taste great. The overall service was good as always. Thank you Caliva
The whole staff was really kind here. The lobby and shopping area are set up nicely and I love the decor. Lines weren't too long so that was nice as well. My budtender Ciena was really nice and helpful in helping me pick out some edibles and recommended me her favorites. I will definitely come back!
I'm giving this a three star because of the knowledge of the staff the first time I went there, the kindness of them and general good will and friendliness by my first bud tender there. But today I went there and would have given it one star. But the manager gave me 10% off and apologized for whatever happened between current bud tender and me (Haba?). I went in to grab some cartridges and flower. She helped me with the cartridges and as soon as I asked her for flower she started trying to push their in house grown alien og. I seen it and I didn't want it. I wanted something to look at other than that that she had just shown me. She would only let me scroll the tablet but not look at any actual jars. And her attitude was real matter of fact take it or leave it. Which was confusing because I went there for my first time and they treated me golden. Anyways, this place is big and the hierarchy in their employees rosters runs on who has the burning man, seventh level lingo down. anyways, that's how I seen it. I seen everyone around me getting nice treatment but this lady (Jaba?) or whatever her name is had it out for me. She's protected as the manager is interested in her and she has the right seventh level earth muffin disposition to get away with treating her customer like second. They're big so they won't miss my business. I suggest you give your business to a dispensary that needs and wants it. Not this big machine. -
Wanted to do a review just for the gentleman that helped me at the counter Yosef. He was extremely knowledgeable and made great recommendations. Haven't smoked in awhile but he was very patient and explained their deals, differences between everything, and just great energy and knowledge overall! Straight from the door the rest of the staff were very welcoming. Definitely recommend for long time smokers because of the wide variety of selection and recommend for beginners as well because of the staff and how great they are at helping you find what will fit your needs!!! Definitely my new favorite place!
Visited Caliva for the first time yesterday. Because of COVID, lines where long because of social distancing. Once inside, very professional. I was especially pleased with Miranda and her knowledge of products sold.Will visit again.
Wish they would bring back Ember Valley's Sundae Driver.
Love coming here, easy access, various pick up options, friendly staff.Jill D was extremely knowledgeable and friendly with my questions. Definitely my favorite club
Caliva thank you!! Avery was so good to me!Helped me get some tree, for me it's important to get a indica dominant hybrid and he coached me thru all the options and lead me to the perfect one. Wedding cake. Thanks caliva, and thanks Avery I will definitely be back
Visited the dispensary due to the size in San Jose and didn't think it would be much better than the main stream dispensaries but the three day return on this constant specials and excellent customer service is what keeps me coming back. Not to mention home grown products
Beware of their so called "curbside pick up" if you've got somewhere to be. They will take 40 mins AFTER YOU ARRIVE to get your order ready.
I had the pleasure of being assisted by Corrina she was such a knowledgeable and pleasant member of the Caliva staff. Definitely coming back again!
Jenn was wonderful as she was approachable, knowledgeable, and enthusiastic. When we told her what we were looking for, she knew exactly which products to recommend.
Amazing products and an even more amazing staff! They always give the best recommendations. The curbside pickup is so convenient! My favorite place in SJ
"The dude with dreads" Extremely professional, nice & gave great customer service. Customer service like this makes me comfortable to come buy more from Caliva.This is my first time on curve side pick up & it was easy, fast & the guy in dreads provided great service. Appreciate it
We always enjoy coming to Caliva. Miranda was very helpful. Our favorite dispensary and staffs are always friendly. I really liked their vape cartridges. Gets me high pretty quick! I will always come back again. Thanks Caliva!Daniel
Jenn, Angel and Cheyenne were super helpful this Sunday morning and gave some great suggestions. Walking into Caliva feels like walking in to see your friends. It is such a friendly and welcoming environment, no matter how knowledgeable you are! Thank you for such a wonderful experience every single time
Great service knowledgeable very helpful. Very health conscious too! We can't wait to see how these items work! Great experience in the shop!
Yo how long does it take for your fudge cookies to be ready I been waiting all year damn near other then that y'all shit fire but bring the fudge cookies back Frfr
I used to love caliva. The bud tenders there were truly great. I kept ordering from them because i also like their shop. It's big, decorated nicely, they had a wide variety. I ordered ahead for pick up a couple of weeks ago. They confirmed it was ready. The line for pick up took me over an hour of waiting. The walk-in line was moving much quicker. Anyways so i finally get in and I'm told my order was cancelled, and they don't have some of the stuff i ordered anymore. (No email or anything telling me it was cancelled) so i had to order other stuff since I'd already waited so long i wasn't going to leave empty handed. Then, was told they no longer accept debit cards and i had to pay to use the ATM. i left frustrated and annoyed, told myself they have burned me too many times, I'm not going back. After over a year of going there I've just gotten tired of them. They're so pretentious about making people wait (in lines, delivery, whatever) The delivery is NEVERRRRRRR on time. And when it comes hours (or even days) after being promised, they try to make you feel guilty for complaining by talking about their essential workers and how they are "trying their best" (i doubt its the delivery drivers fault you guys are behind) They sent out an email today, apologizing for being so slow and messing up all the time these past two months. Offered a 20% discount on one item. So i ordered. Got an email saying to wait up to an hour for confirmation and to tell me a driver is on the way. That's great, no problem. An hour and a half later, no email. So i emailed them. No response. So i chat with them. Dude on chat tells me yeah sorry, it's the weekend we're busy on the weekend (it's Friday morning) there's 20 people ahead of me still. -_- why did you email me telling me to wait an hour ? I wouldn't have mind the longer delivery time, but don't make me wait around like that.... just cancel it... forget it.... too frustrating
First time getting my goodies delivered.Saw Caliva on the web and decided to give it a try.I ordered online for delivery around 9:00 AM. Got an email immediately to confirm my purchase, then one moments later that my products have been packed.They start delivery at 3:00 PM. I got a text message around 3:10 on status of my delivery. Driver called me half hour before arrival. Driver was excellent!! Very communicative, professional, friendly, and patient during the payment process.Thank you for making things easy for me! Will def have more deliveries in the future.
I was nervous about come to Caliva because it was so large, but Corrina assisted us at the front desk and immediately made me feel at ease. She was super personable and friendly and gave great information on the newest products and offers! Highly recommend!
My husband and I love this dispensary!! I've frequented this spot a handful of times and the review it overdue. It's the first dispensary I've ever been it and it's very nice. The security guards are very welcoming and so are the employees. The last time I went, the line was long and we didn't want to wait. Thankfully the employees who were at the outside tent was very nice and gave us the option to order through her. It didn't take long to get our order. This is my official go-to :)
It's always great going into Caliva For all my herbal needs, I appreciate how everyone from the check and then the bud tenders that you guys have, Garret S thanks for your information on the Deli Greens. Caliva has become the only dispensary I use
It's sad to see how far Caliva has sunk. They used to be a great club. I've spent lots of money here and they used to be great. Now they can't keep anything in stock. Poor management has ruined this place. The bud tenders say that they have opened a So-Cal shop and that's why stock is so low. Well Fuck your so-Cal shop. I will never recommend this club ever again. Don't waste your time here. Find a shop who cares about the local community. Again sad to see how far they have sunk.
When you order online you get a message that states you will be contacted via email to schedule delivery. Being I'm recovering from multiple back surgery's and can't leave the house. I had my delivery all set up at 1030 am. It's now 945 pm and they still have not contacted me about my order.Do not do business with such a horrible company that doesn't care about there customers or there City. Amazing that they have such a big celebrity base for owners but at the store level they suck!!!! I will never do business with them again and will tell everyone I knowNot to shop there as well. If you want to order your medicine and they never show,email or call after several inquiries then there you go. Horrible customer service. Sad in a day in age when business are struggling. Do not shop here!!!!!
Awesome service and product. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Very trendy vibez, yet down to earth and approachable. No pretentiousness. I stopped by yesterday to grab my usual monthly supplies, they hooked up 5 prerolls for 5 cents and a free face mask for Memorial Day. Caliva, you're dope
Tried to go back to Caliva for an emergency restock only to get home and find that the cart I literally just bought is missing about a quarter of the juice. You can see from the time I bought it to the time I have gotten home that no time has lapsed. This isn't a different cart. There's no way I could smoke this much in that short of a time. Honestly, such a shame. I tried. Don't trust these guys. Never know what kind of problem you're gonna have here.
Place sucks. There's no call in option and their website is faulty. Just moved away from Airfield, who really sucks, and these guys did not help.Go to Madmen. Really supportive staff.
Anna was my delivery driver.She was upbeat and professional. This is my second time using the delivery Service, and they do a great job.Great Product, great staff.
I've been an ambassador for Caliva for quite some time (about a year) and have loved this company and dispensary so much. The employees are helpful and patient, if you have questions. The location is large and it has a ton of product options. To prevent a long wait, always order ahead for pick up! Their point system is great, too. I love their vegan edible options.
"Not all dispensaries are created equal". With the fairly recent legalization of recreational marijuana, there have been dispensaries popping up everywhere across Cali. I have been to at least 5 different ones in the Bay Area, and I can certainly say that Caliva is the best one. First off, parking is VERY EASY. They have a huge parking lot reserved for Caliva customers only, which may not seem like a big deal but this is San Jose/Bay Area where free and spacious parking is a rarity. Second, the check in process was very smooth. I absolutely loved the vibe/presentation of the entrance. There were two awesome ladies to check you in and three iPads in the back for you to register. It was highly efficient. Finally, I have to say that the absolute best part of my experience was the CUSTOMER SERVICE. From the security guard to the gentleman stocking shelves that waved goodbye on my way out, this place is something different. The person who rang me up and helped with my order was THOMAS. The very first thing he asked me wasn't "what do you need", but instead "how are you, what is your name? My name is T". Afterwards, I told him I was in for some CBD, and he told me more than I ever knew about it. It was a nice education session. He was the best and recommended me these amazing 20:1 watermelon gummies (see photo) that will hopefully help a night shift worker like me sleep better. What's really nice about this place is that even though it was busy with customers, they employ enough people to keep the line going efficiently, while not sacrificing great customer service. There were about 4-5 people working the registers, just chatting it up with customers and it was great. PS, they do free deliveries over 50 dollars and they have an awesome rewards system. Their ATM fee is $2.50, which is standard from what I've experienced. I think they usually take card but it was down when I went.
I have always had an enjoyable, fun experience visiting Caliva. The product selection, ambiance, and customer service has always exceeded my expectations. May 28th was no exception. I had the pleasure of being helped by Karley :) - a fantastic sales associate who has (who recognized my face- despite the mask I was wearing). I am always grateful to be helped by Karley when I visit Caliva because she offers helpful product recommendations and uplifting conversation. I want to give her a huge shoutout for always making me feel welcome. Cheers!
Caliva is my go to dispensary in San Jose. It was voted 1 in the nation and I feel they represent the title consistently. What I truly enjoy visiting caliva is their appreciation for customers. I've been to two of their big events, one on Jan 1 and on 4/20. They have a DJ. Spin the wheel game. Food truck. They were handing out free grinders, shirts, pizza, and many more cool items! As for regular visits, they have amazing selection of products. Edibles, oils, concentrates, flower, pre-rolls, and anything you can imagine! I love the atmosphere here I always feel like I'm going to a coffee shop. also they have rewards system to track your points! I would come visit here even if you are not a local, this place should almost be like a tourist attraction! After you are done here, go checkout Hermitage brewery right behind the building
Miranda helped me out today, it was my first time here at Caliva and she was so sweet and informational. Her attitude was positive and upbeat and she was very pleasant to talk to this morning. I was feeling anxious and Miranda's personality had me leaving Caliva feeling happy, and calm. Very professional employee!
I've had good experiences with both in-store pickup and delivery. This time because of the pandemic I wanted to try curbside pickup. I had a question about today's special deal, so I used the customer service chat on their website. Alina was super patient and helpful in addressing my concerns and walked me through how to pay and the curbside pickup procedure. Alina was also the one to bring out my order and she was very sweet.
Their selection of products is excellent, friendly and knowledgeable staff. Miranda helped check me out for my online order today, excellent service! If you're looking for CBD products definitely check out Caliva!
In and out in 5 minutes! Can't beat that. Super helpful dude named Marduk helped me out, was short a few cents and covered me! Thanks again dude!
Ordered from them yesterday around 7pm online and I wanted it to be delivered,After ordering I got a message saying that the driver is on his way to me and they will let me know when he arrivesAt 11pm I get a message says sorry we cannot delivery you and if you need anything let us know Lol what a joke !!!Now I'm left without! So here I am sharing my experience....Also their weed is sucks to be honest I think they spray it or something I don't know but anyway I'm done with them.
Alina was super helpeful the other day with CBD suggestions for anxiety. She was very educated, and I learned so much from her. Definitely going back.
Mila! She's dope. Super quick with the recommendations. Knew exactly what I should get. Been coming to Caliva since they first opened. She's my new favorite budtender at my favorite dispensary. Thanks guys!
I had an appointment for my car's tires and this place was located right across the street. To pass time I have decided to try it. First time people have to register at the tablet right when you enter, which takes about 5 minutes. They don't really ask for specific details except your birthday. Then afterwards, you have to check in and wait to enter. If you're registered you can go straight to check in. Then you can enter and walk through to door to enter this Marijuana Eden. I've never seen a place so nice and organized. Also everyone here was very helpful. I like how you don't have to ask the people behind the counter what stuff they have, there is a tablet where you can view the menu and what they have in stock. I ended up buying 2 candied edibles and I was on my way. They also have a reward system here which is pretty cool. 20 points for every time you check in and it's about 130 points for free stuff. I normally go to Harbor Side, because it's closer to home, but this place is pretty awesome. The thing I did notice was that the prices here were just a tad bit higher compared to the ones at Harbor Side. I don't know this place well enough to see if they have deals or specials, but I have subscribed to receive emails if they have any specials.
I came in and they were so helpful and accommodating to me. Courtney the bud tender was super nice and friendly and so was Marduke (?, sorry man if that's not correct spelling) the floor manager. Would recommend 100/10
I thought I'd stop in and give caliva another shot. Pick up a quarter of their deli greens strawberry banana. Got home opened the package and found this disappointment. More stems then anything. Looked nothing like the sample jars. Too bad.
Love, love, love coming here for all my cannabis needs, the curbside pick up is superior and they're always fully stocked, even if something is out they'll call in advance and suggest a substitution. The customer service you receive is perfect example of what great customer service should be, way to go Caliva! Big shout out to Yousef (the boy with the dreads & never ending smile, that radiates even when wearing his mask.. thanks for always making it a positive experience you rock !!
Omg, Miranda at Caliva is the beeeest!!!She was so helpful in my purchases tonight. She really gives A+ customer service skills, which is rare these days! She cares about her job & her customers !Thanks again Miranda!
Omg this is my favorite dispensary in California. Their Dogwalker prerolls are my favs! Love everything about this shop and their staff...great selection and bonus, super close to the botanical gardens!
My boyfriend and I were in the San Jose area and found Caliva through Yelp. The process was fairly simple. Once we registered and had our IDs checked we got through to the actual store where you have an amazing selection of products to choose from. Our bud-tender Andrew, was very knowledgeable, gave us great recommendations, and gave us an overall pretty good experience. Will definitely be back next time we're ever in San Jose!
Very professional They are honest and I appreciate all whom I've encountered. Friendly. This company is trustworthy. Thank you
Man it sucks the day I had to leave this kind of review for Caliva. I have been a long time customer and never had issues until today. I accidentally made an order hitting the "Pay with Cash" option. I had to then cancel the order. You would think it would be an easy user experience but you are forced to use the website's chat box. I waited almost 10 minutes for a response and when I finally got a response I was met with not even a hello or the usual customer service questions. I was then transferred to my local Caliva and then again waited long periods of time for a response. No confirmation of cancellation or asked me for my name or order number. It was truly confusing. When finally told it was canceled I received a notification that my order was on it's way and I had to go through the process again of being routed to the right store and then waiting for responses. I finally got a hold of someone again and gave them my order number to make sure the driver didn't have to waste time delivering something they said was already canceled. After told it has been canceled they ended the chat abruptly. I suggest to make your online customer service experience more precise, with effective communication and something to confirm the cancellation like an email or actively have an update.
I have been coming here for some time. The customer service is amazing! I met this young man by the name of Yousef. He was amazing. I'm still kinda new to the cannabis world and he educated me and shared with me what was the differences of strands. And in doing so he kept a smile on his face. I fully enjoy walking into Caliva. We are treated like family and that's how it should be. Thank you so much Yousef for all your help! You rock at your job!!
Ordered curveside pick up never got any notice regarding order. Called them, was told order was ready to just drive up and park. Was told someone would be there to process order. Got there n no1 was there. I was the only vehicle parked to pick up order. waited for a good while. No1 shows. Asked security guard, he called inside and was told to tell me to go inside to process order. Wtf! Worst experience ever.
The product and people are great. They need a better person running there promotions. Every email and promo they offer has been in useable. The experience reminds me of the old days when you would earn all those miles/pints and could never use them. The airlines and hotels figured out this was costing them business. I hope Caliva does as well. Will not spend 1 more dollar of my money with them until they figure out the purpose and experience expected for such incentives. Unbelievable
Can you make this process any more difficult? The product is LEGAL! I can buy a gun easier than this!
I've been to this dispensary twice now. Customer service is pretty good, the bud tenders are helpful. The edibles here are really good and so are some of the wax cartridges that they hold! This place is definitely worth coming to!
When they started it was great. Now, they claim "2 hour windows" for delivery and yet, when all is said and done 2 1/2 - 3 hours. They don't seem to prioritize the ASAP orders, so why is it an option? The web specials never add up dollar wise.. ie 14.45 each or 4 for 60. Can't spend less than 50.00 so you need 4, thus losing 1.80. Crazy.
Ordered for delivery at 7:30 or so at night yesterday. Order was packed by 7:45pm. Never went out for delivery. Was never updated. They close at 9, and open at 9, so I couldn't contact anyone until over 12 hours later. I contacted customer chat support at 9:01am, and the person who helped me was amazing. They even called me to rectify the issue. We figured out a solution that worked. I'd come pick it up-but I did state I was now going to run a little late to work so the pickup has to be fast. Cool. I was informed I should let them know when I'm close to expedite my pickup. Great! Thanks so much! Fast forward 15 minutes. I've texted to let them know where I am, I texted 6 minutes before arrival. I updated once I arrived with a car description and the space number within which I was parked. I'm told someone is coming out right now. Someone does come out. But that order isn't for me. He tells me it is (or so I thought, I could've misheard him), and then shouts I'll be getting a phone call. Why? Why is someone calling me? An unknown Los Angeles number calls. Assuming it's spam, I don't pick up and wait for a local number to call. LA number calls again. I pick up. It's Caliva. I AM STANDING OUTSIDE WHY ARE YOU CALLING ME. Oh to verify my order? I told her my order was verified, I was told this would be a fast pickup. She wants to verify and set up payment method. I tell her I selected cash. There is no payment to set up? She asks how much cash I have (weird question but okay). I tell her. She goes "it's to make change". No. Lol. I know my total. The change would've been a mere 90 cents. I told her please just keep the change, I just want the product so I can go. This is already making me late. She's rude. Calling me "sweetie", "honey", whatever other pet names, and generally being condescending from the literal beginning of the phone call. No sense of urgency. Nothing. I ask if they can please just give me the order. I don't need change. The man who came out originally comes out. Apparently a supervisor. And starts going "let me explain how our procedure works" I tell him, look. I do not have time. This order was supposed to be hand delivered last night. I've spent more than enough time trying to get this product. Please just give me the product. He tells me not to disrespect his employees as I walk away. 1. When a customer has an issue that your company caused, you fix it. You don't sit there and make it harder for the customer. You don't treat the customer like they're stupid. You apologize and fix it. The person I spoke to via live chat/the first phone call was great at this. 2. I was told they were informed of my delivery issue, and my time constraint. I placed the order last night to avoid this exact issue of having to rush. Knowing I'm in a rush, and already have dealt with issues, you t hi kk they'd streamline the process instead of making me speak to multiple people to pickup an order they failed to delivery. 3. Don't preach about disrespect, when your employee calls people honey, sweetie, etc over the phone and speaks to your customers like they're five years old. If a customer is already irritated because you messed up, maybe don't make it worse by treating them like they're inept? Seeing the other reviews, I'm convinced that the retail side (v delivery), has some serious issues. Definitely will not be back.
I love this place, I showed up today for a pick up order and forgot my face mask because I was high. Miranda hooked me up with a free face mask and Caliva weed to keep me high the rest of the day. I'm high right now so the weed does work so that also deserves 5 starts.
We went here with a group of friends on a whim while in San Jose for a Beyonce concert back in '18. I wanted some edibles and flower to enjoy with the warm day The reviews and overall marketing approached seemed appealing but I wondered if they could live up to the hype. Check in: Security guard was great. Signing up fo all of us was a breeze (even got to see the menu though I did not verify if it was up to date.) Front desk lady was awesome. So far very good. Space: We walked in and the environment is definitely pretty cool. Aesthetic, vibe, and staff all looked polished and professional. It felt like a more organic apple store. There were interesting product presentations to view while waiting in line. That said, a daily menu would be pretty cool to browse while in line. Budtender: Seemed chill enough at first. Asked us about the products we wanted and I started with the edibles we came there for. (Espresso dark chocolate beans). When I asked him how much they were, he said $35. Knowing that I had paid $18 for the exact same thing pre-legalization, I was a bit curious as to whether he was saying it was $35 for two or if the beans had not gone up since legalization. When he confirmed that it was $35/tin, I almost started laughing. Legalization has its cost but it is comical if they can make a business off of such an increase. The budtender said that the vendor adjusted their prices and said some other random confusion about potency decreasing; the vendor just reduced the number of beans that come in the tin. He mentioned a completely different product but neglected to either realize or mention that the product I was buying still had the same dosage/potency as before. For anyone not familiar or not paying attention, this could be bad for people new or not familiar with cannabis. This was the first red flag but I did not mention it. Realizing I needed to do further research to determine if the price gouge was coming from Caliva, the vendor, or inflated local taxes, I decided to get two tins and move on to some flower. Without asking my interests or anything about effect, the budtender started whipping jars out for us to smell. I don't mind this since you could theoretically narrow down plant genetics based off the terpenes but it is a lot of work and not as easy as cannabinoid profiles. I looked at the jars and only saw THC %. I asked him for some outdoor, sun grown flower and asked him about Humboldt Farms. He said it was grown in a green house and indicated his lack of enthusiasm for it. He threw some other flower at us with little explanation and we continued to smell jars. Once we landed on a couple I asked him if he knew the percentage of CBD. It was at this time that he kind of muttered at the irrelevance since CBD percentages are usually .2%. I looked at him confused trying to understand what he was trying to tell me but not wanting to correct him. (It was not until I wrote this review that I realized he was likely conflating the actual sample tested weight (3.5grams) and CBD % equating with .2grams.) It was at this point that I a kind of lost interest... While the experience was not terrible, due to the budtender and his general lack of product understanding, I left with money on the table. At the end of the day, all of the marketing and customer service does not mean anything if the people actually selling and explaining the product do not know what they are talking about. Caliva is not alone but for all the hype, it left a lot to be desired in the most important department to me.
Been coming to this place for about a year now, always great products and customer service! Shoutout to Jenn the cashier for being so lovely for helping us!
I went in during the COVID-19 pandemic, and they were very safe; only letting in 4 customers at a time; hand sanitize available, and everything looked very clean. I went in for CBD oil and I like what the salesperson recommended. The package on the CBD oil has lots of information so I know exactly what I'm ingesting. And it makes me feel comfortable in taking a small dose. I will definitely return.
I am so glad I found this place!!! I am from San Francisco, the city has banned the vape stores. It's either I find another city or fly out to LA to get my vape stuff. Until I found this place in my weed maps app while was in town to visit family, get yummy foods and my favorite sugar cane drinks. I was here with my roommate yesterday. Everyone is SUPER FRIENDLY, and VERY NICE. From security, to hostess, and consultant. The hostess told me there's a consultant who has the same hair color as me. Right when I got in I was greeted nicely right away and when I tuned around I saw JENN! MY MERMAID TEAL HAIR TWIN!! Jenn is very helpful when it comes to my vape pens because I was running low on my disposable ones. Then she introduced me the pods for the vape for me to try them out and see if I liked it. I also asked for gummy edibles and her picking of passion fruit gummies are the YUMMERS!! I would totally come back here again because of their services and knowledge!
I'm as noob as it gets with THC. I only come here to purchase for my pothead friends' birthdays. First time I came here, I was completely confused. I had no idea what I was ordering or what I was looking for, but the staff are so patient and helpful. Sativa? Indica? Hybrid?!!? Someone help me... and there they were! Over time, I've become more accustomed to the terminology, and now I can say I can order gummies and cookies confidently. Thank you so much Caliva for guiding me through my journey through this side of the world I have never touched. Y'all are awesome!
Tatiana is literally the best!!!!!! She helped us save so much money and we ended up with more weed. Grateful to come to a place where their employees are knowledgeable and genuinely care about their customers shopping there. I highly recommend coming here!
5 Stars for Sanji(please excuse if I misspell). Stuck to what I was interested in, didn't try to up-sell me or "bang the drum" on inventory they needed to push. Was honest about why he did not prefer particular brands, but still gave the most popular choice as asked. Knew his shit! From one customer service rep to another, this guy rock! Top brands I've trusted for a time... Can vouch the vape cartridges are top shelf without getting too over-priced compared to other dispensaries around. Comfortable atmosphere and friendly staff. Decent amount of people in line but there were plenty of budtender's so I was in/out in less than 20 minutes (including registering an account as a part of my first visit).
I would love to give Caliva a 5 star. I think they have great products, nice selections and user friendly services. However I placed and order at 5 o'clock in an afternoon and didn't get the product delivered until 12 pm that night. I would like to praise the delivery service for being that committed however the customer service side of the business was not too understanding or apologetic about the timed delivery. I still would recommend the products and facility just slightly disappointed on customer service side. I find myself to be a very understanding person when it comes to these things but just saddened by how I was treated. Once again saluting the midnight delivery driver you were so committed to the cause!
This is by far the most pleasant dispensary around. Delivery was fast and accurate.
This place had me like I was a Ganja farmer. Felt like I was going into a restaurant not picking up some Herb. From my first walk into the doors signing up on the kiosk and then being greeted at the front desk it was different. Image being in New York City and ur street dealer greets you so pleasantly and wants to indulge in a Conversation with you, not that I have ever brought weed on the streets in NYC which is totally illegal, shh. Then you enter after being buzzed in and your herb specialist pulls out jar after jar after jar. Your just smelling and reading and watching all these wonderfully grown specimens. Your there thinking what kind of mood do you want to put your self into. Then you get home and your relaxed and you roll up and after a couple hits your toasted and you saying hey maybe it's me cause I don't smoke frequently, but then you invite your boy who smokes like everyday and you let him try some from this spot and his eyes red and he toasted you know the shit good.
Chris was so helpful! Considering the stress of working and interacting with the public during a pandemic it's even more impressive how much Chris went out of their way to help me.
This place is awesome, the delivery is speedy and friendly. Donald Burh did my delivery and not only did he get here quick, he also waited ten minutes for me to see his texts, which was especially helpful because my phone died just before he got there. I thought for sure he'd be gone when I turned it back on and saw a ten minute old text, but he was still there! I also didn't have all the Cash on me like I thought I did (batting 10,000 today, clearly) but Donald waited for me to run to the atm at the corner store. What a great guy! :)
I don't go to many dispensaries but Caliva wins my business lately!! I am thoroughly impressed with their easy to use online ordering. I have found that many dispensaries have difficult online ordering, and many don't work 1/2 the time. Caliva is different. Love what you guys have done! It is so easy to place an order, and within about 30 mins you get an email that your order is ready! They have set up a separate line if you need to go inside to pick it up, or you can have them bring it out to your car. The only downside to my order is when I wanted to tip my fabulously friendly budtender, Jill D. and she informed me that she can't take cash tips. We can thank Covid-19 for that!! Caliva, please do something great for Jill..she deserves it!...and for that I will keep coming back to place my orders with Caliva!! way to go!
This was the first time I'd been to a dispensary. They have a lot of security which might be a turn off to some, but I found it comforting. They are set up safely for CoViD. The facility itself is very nice.I knew generally what I wanted which was a systemic CBD product for chronic arthritis pain. Stone was very respectful and helpful. I'm sure most people come there looking for THC products, but Stone was very professional in getting me what I wanted. I bought CBT 30:1 capsules and drops. The products are working great and I am very happy. Now that I know what I want, next time I'll order online and do the pick up.
What can I say?! Miranda is amazing! She gives great recommendations for pain relieving strains, which is amazing for someone with chronic pain like myself. And if you ever have questions or concerns about edibles, Miranda is definitely the person to talk to, her knowledge is extensive. I cannot say enough great things about my experience with this wonderful lady!
I'm still new to the edible world. Rebecca Olmos made my experience awesome. Very patient, very knowledgeable with every question I had and didn't rush me. Overall experience was great from beginning to end.
Caliva is just amazing. They have a ton of variety, from the best benefit cost to the luxury brands. They also have an outstanding treating with people. Today i was attended by this brazilian girl named Kiara and she was great. Definately a place that world spending some time.
Went in to help a family member pick out something to help her with pain. The staff was amazing and the place looked like a "high" end spa.The employees were very knowledgeable and helpful through the whole process. The customers mostly looked older or like they had a disability. It wasn't scary or weird at all. Just like being in line at a pharmacy.
I love that you guys carry the Lagunitas Hi Hops! My delivery company doesn't carry them, so I came in and grabbed a bunch. Miranda was really helpful, and recommended me a good indica, as wellas some good gummies I'd never seen before. I'll definitely be back!
10/10 delivery service. I've never actually been here but this place is hands down the best delivery service I've experienced. $50 minimum is very generous, quick email&text confirmations with each step of order fulfillment (only really mentioning this because I felt like I had issues with this elsewhere), and they've never gotten my order wrong (ok my orders are fairly small so it's hard to get it wrong). Yeah the products may cost a little more than other places, and they don't have any big regular discount promos on the products I enjoy, but I've never been disappointed here and that's what counts for me. One day I'll make the trek out there when covid is over, but until then, this is my go-to delivery service.
This review is being written for the staff at Caliva. Nearly every interaction with a driver, curbside deliverer, or bud tender has been pleasant. One particular member stands out to me and that's Dany. That's my girl!! She's knowledgeable about the products and genuinely wants to find you the best one for your needs, not up sell you by any means, I brought my mom in to Caliva, her first time ever at a dispensary and we both had a memorable encounter with Dany servicing us. She was super sweet to my mom, made us laugh and we remembered her until I ran into her again a year later. It's moments like that and people like that that keep you returning to a business. Dany is patient, and she is real with me. I appreciate her style as a bud tender and I must say, I look forward to seeing her again when I stop back in to purchase inside. Thank you Dany, for being you! :) keep on doin' what you're doin' cuz you're doin' it right, my friend! A beautiful soul for sure. I hope you get the pleasure of having her as your bud tender as well.
"For edibles and flowers, all sales are final." I should've asked before buying.It's hard to find the right CBD:THC ratio from scratch, and zero return policy makes that even harder. What am I supposed to do with these remaining nineteen of twenty 1:1 gummies that didn't work for my pain management needs, which I would've readily exchanged for the 2:1 package?
I was going here for a curbside pick up. Everything was going well, until my car started not working. I asked security for help, but unfortunately they were busy. However, the person who dropped off my pick up, Stone, saved me. It was worth a shot just to ask for help, but he was more than willing to do so. He literally took the time out to bring his car and help me jumpstart it. He helped me through until my car was ready. I just want to compliment your guys' service and the extraordinary service that Caliva's workers provide. I have used the online service and in person to ask questions and just the overall communication is great. Stone really helped me out a lot. He went above and beyond. To sum it up (going back to Caliva) this place is my go to. I have been going here for about a year now. I would recommend it not only for what they are known for, but also their overall service is top notch (whether you have questions about what to get or you have an emergency... like I did lol).
Jenn was super helpful, knowledgeable, patient, and kind! Honestly an amazing experience and will be coming back!
Every time I go in I stare at the plastic plant wall. Then I rub my wooden coin. When I get home I even medicate while listening to Big Pimpin but it still doesnt make the flower as strong as the other dispensaries. Is there a fancy restroom I missed?
So I've been a customer with Caliva for a little over a year now. Began ordering their delivery during the start of lockdown, and more recently started visiting their SJ location. Their delivery is fantastic, timely, and I never had an issue with finding something worthwhile with their online inventory (Reef leaf is always a favorite with them). As for their in-person staff at their SJ location, just wow! Guards at the front are always super professional and courteous, the front desk is always extremely kind and pleasant, and their salespersons are incredible. Friendly, knowledgeable, patient, I've never had a less than stellar experience with them (if there were a six star option, I'd give it in a heartbeat). After roughly 50x deliveries, and at least half a dozen in person visits, all I can say is this place is wonderful. Great selections, amazing service, wonderful people. Kudos to Caliva and every person working with them!! :)
First time using Delivery (which is Free w a $50 pretax minimum) -- and I am very impressed with the speed helpfulness of the staff. I used the online chat to confirm the order was in transit and Leo responded immediately, and my delivery man Steve Q. was super gracious and helpful since it was the first time I was going through the deliver process. Will definitely use again when it helps me to avoid an unnecessary trip (especially in poor weather with a hip injury...)Thanks again, everyone working hard at Caliva, you guys continue to be the absolute best!!!love,zim :)
I appreciate the delivery team in particular right now during this pandemic. Clara J and Matthew really treated me kindly and were prompt and efficient. I did have one incident where my order was lost and not delivered for a couple days, and so I wasn't able to get what I originally ordered. I do wish you could collect points for delivery, especially right now since we can't physically go in the store. I think all orders placed via delivery since March should retroactively get the points they would have received from a physical store visit.
Rebecca was awesome today!! Thanks for making our dayyour customer service made us happy to do business with you!
A huge thank-you to Avery who was so patient and helpful with suggestions. The Wedding Cake was great!
I'm only giving them a 1 out of 5 stars due to one experience I had which happened to be my last experience. I have been an avid shopper at caliva, and even know some of the staff. I go there a lot!. So I went in about a 2 weeks or so ago (my regular biweekly visit). I bought 2 caliva airpro cartridges (full gram). Mind you I buy this brand because their own workers recommended it to me and it's their own personal brand. Anyway, I buy 2 cartridges then head home. From shopping there before I know you can exchange the cartridge if its faulty and one of the ones I recieved was faulty. Mind you I bought 2 so by the time I realized my 2nd one was faulty was after I finished my first cartridge so I called them and due to the whole fact of covid19 and the extremely long lines they had at the time and asked if I can return it after it does down a bit, the person on the phone said they would allow me to exchange it no problem. Well today I walk in to get my exchange, instead the manager who was a woman with glasses at the time told me she cant exchange it, even though it's their own personal brand and it was faulty. Not like I broke it or misused it, it was brand new and faulty. Anyway the lady said she cant do a return because its 3 days late and my only option was to pay another 45 dollar to get another one discounted so I did. None of this would have happened if I just got a working one, and I tried to tell her that, I came in to buy a working cartridge, I paid for a cartridge that was faulty no fault of my own and then I was penalized and had to pay another 45 to get a working one. Unacceptable!! Your manager wouldnt even work with me, even though it wasnt my issue. Terrible communication between staff. One person says it's okay, I show up, manager said no. I will not be shopping in this location again. White fire from now on I guess.
This was once a negative review but Rebecca from Caliva made everything right. She was very transparent about some craziness in their system around the time I last made an order and I was able to get curbside pick up the same day. I've been going to Caliva for some time now, and their product has always been top-notch, and the second to last delivery experience I had with them was very good, the driver was a pretty nice guy. I'm at least glad I can light one up during the pandemic.
I've been in here a couple times now. I like that they have the "flower hour" 10% off M-F. I always take advantage when a place does that. So far I've loved the flower I've gotten here. I also like that they're carrying the 4:1 care by design drops. I do wish they'd carry the wonder drops 2:1. I hate driving all the way to airfield for them...hint hint ;) My only "pro tip" would be to park farther from the light on Phealan st, or however it's spelled. It's easier to back out. I've had the same bud tender both times, nice guy, long hair, beanie. Nice to have a bud tender that's not oblivious, knows his stuff, and is super friendly.
Karley was my bud tender and was very knowledgeable of there products. I also like how the company is ran. Clean and organized. Karley was very helpful. I will be going back for more meds.
They are still open for medical patients. Miranda was awesome in helping get all the stuff I needed
Super dope place to pick up da kine. My mans was cool AF handling the bud bar. Think his name was sanju. Will be back and will recommend my friends to this spot. Good prices and literally just said to the dude "yo i Just want sum fire, that old school,smell like gas fire." Dude said "i gotchu". Came back wit the goods. He musta went to weed College. He had test results, % numbers and prices ready for me like i was a tree bookie. Opened it all up and it was all sum flame. That Apex Sugar he picked out was firrrrrrrrre
I want to take some time to thank 3 incredible people that work for Caliva in San Jose Ca. First off Cecil the security officer was a blast to talk to during my wait to get in (super nice guy and did his job well keeping everyone safe during this whole covid situation). Then I had the pleasure to meet Alina at the front desk. She gave me superb recommendations with regards to her favorite strains! She didn't rush me and went above and beyond to help me with my specific questions. And Finally Stone! He was an awesome bud tender that also gave excellent recommendations not only with flower but edibles to mix with the flower! This was by far the best experience I have had in a dispensary in San Jose. This will now be my "go to" when I'm back visiting home in San Jose. So... When you stop by tell Cecil, Alina, and Stone that Chris "From Las Vegas" said HIGH...
Danny at San Jose Caliva always provides great service! She has the best customer service and attitude! Being a local customer, I believe the entire staff does an amazing job in providing the best service to all! Thank you Danny and Caliva!
Probably the worst dispensary I've ever visited long long long slow line the people there don't really like to help you more like what do you want and get lost with was my first time there and sadly will be my last not from the area but saw this place had good reviews but turned out to be BUMMY :(
Caliva is great! I want to say a big thank you to Rebecca olmos for the great service through curbside! This is the only spot my fiancé and I go to.
Miranda was helping me picking up my order. She was friendly and we had a nice chat. :)
This place was awesome, friendly staff, clean and fair prices. Jenn was great and made us feel comfortable, will definitely come back!
Thanks Samantha for the excellent customer service. As a first time buyer, she was outstanding in recommending the best product.
I had the pleasure of having Dany help me out with my order! She was very attentive and easy to talk to. She made sure my order was correct and I got everything that I desired. The whole staff was very careful with all of their COVID precautions and do have the option of cashless payment. Would highly recommend!
Just did my first online order. Chris from their orders dept called b/c I was buying proprietary cartridges as well as a new 510 battery and he wanted to make sure I understood that the proprietary cartridges wouldn't fit the 510. So considerate! Very impressed at the thoughtful customer service! Can't wait to get my first order! Thanks Chris!
Caliva has great customer service. Diane was my delivery driver and went above and beyond to reschedule my delivery time last minute. She made the process effortless.
Caliva stole $32 (+tax) from me.They're good... until you need them to act like a Reputable Business.Placed an order for delivery early Wednesday afternoon, the guy showed up 6 hours later. The receipt looked okay, I got upstairs, opened the bag, and saw they missed one of the items I paid them for.I immediately tried contacting them... sent numerous emails, left messages on their website "support" chat. Not a single response.Late Thursday morning I finally got ahold of someone over chat. No apologies for messing up my order, he actually seemed annoyed that they'd have to deliver it.They finally committed to delivering it Thursday and... nothing. Nadda.It's now Friday afternoon. Not a single response to any of my follow-up messages.Yes, Caliva stole $32 (+tax) from me. The worst part; I paid in cash.DON'T MAKE MY MISTAKE -- If you insist on rolling the dice with them, use your debit card, DO NOT GIVE THEM CASH. At least that way, if they scam you as they did me, you can contact your bank's fraud department.I'm not going to waste my time taking them to Small Claims Court for $32 (+ tax), so I'm left with Yelp and the complaint I just filed with the California Better Business Bureau. Sigh.
Awesome service! Fast and friendly and great selection of meds. Jill was especially helpful and provided me with plenty of information!
I needed direction when it came smoking. I had a million questions and Airfield couldn't cater to that. I went into Caliva today and TATIANA answered all my questions and was just Genuinely helpful and soFriendly!!! I left wanting to work there.!!!! Thank you Tatiana!!!
I come here often and I always get Tatiana to help me by chance. She's always super friendly and very knowledgeable. Thanks Tatiana!
I went to pick up my mobile order today from Caliva and Tori was super helpful. She made my pick up fast and even informed me that they were having a major sale for their fourth birthday! I decided to pick up an additional item with my purchase since the deal was a steal! I'm talking away one star only because the sale prices are not reflected on their website so I still ended up paying full price for one of my items even though it was apart of the sale. Overall great customer service. Thanks Tori! Happy Birthday Caliva!!!! This one is for you!
Customer service goes a long way. And that starts at the door. My first time visiting to get a pickup order so totally lost upon arrival since they have two different lines. After waiting to get to the front I find out I'm in the wrong line and I need to go to the back of the other line because I have a pickup order. Security needs to fix their attitude and direct people as they arrive instead of being rude to the customers like it's their job to know everything. I ordered online to make pickup simple and in return got even worse service by the security. So i just canceled my order and went to CA Collective just down the street. They had awesome trees at amazing prices without the headache. You guys really need go step your game up.
Customer service is always the best. Stone helped us out today. Super knowledgeable and friendly. Always love going to Caliva.
Tried to order delivery. Said to schedule a delivery after you checkout but doesn't list how to do this. Tried calling but no one answers.
I had the passion fruit gummy's so good. You can still taste the stuff though. The place was really organized. And the workers were very informative.
No kidding, I never intended to visit let alone buy anything from a "dispensary". Laws change and my son needed some CBD oil after wisdom teeth extractions.What a terrific, safe experience. A very secure large facility located conveniently near the Santa Clara County Fairgrounds. Everyone we dealt with at Caliva was friendly, professional and answered our questions without pressure.I came here because a friend of mine used to work here. I was surprised by the well-run business presenting quality products at fair prices.
Update: I just left crying after visiting on my birthday. Every time I go in they have trouble with my medical discount and this time after working with them to update my profile for a third time, they still over charged me and made me feel like it was my fault. As a side note, I must irritate them because they didn't give me the $20 in 2020 coupon before and didn't give me the taco token this time. I started having an anxiety attack, so I couldn't stay anyway I signed up with Caliva years ago but never rated them because it would have been a 2 at best. After I signed up, I only went back once. This is mostly because their prices are generally higher on the items I want but also because my budtender was pretentious. I tried again a week later, and the same thing happened. The budtender made me feel like I was talking to a Nordstrom's sales lady while wearing my k-mart pant suit. I'm not cheap but I do appreciate value and I don't think I should be shamed for that. Consequently I haven't returned. Caliva finally had a sale that I couldn't pass up, so I made an online order and trudged back hoping that I could get in and out without issue. When I got there, the receptionist was very pleasant and helpful, though she did forget to get my medical ID on my account. Karley helped me finish my order and was SUPER helpful. Though they were busy, she was calm and willing to answer my questions. My order was packed missing two items, which she retrieved quickly and without issue. When getting my total, I asked about my CA medical discount, which many places forget to give me. She told me the front should have done it but hadn't, and she would help me fix it immediately. At most places, I get flack from the budtender for asking to make sure my total is correct. Karley was not only quick and efficient when getting the discount applied to my order, but also did so with wonderful customer service. I will consider coming back to Caliva because if Karley.
'm a huge stoner and use their delivery service every 3 or so days and my usual drivers, Clara J, Esmail, Jason, and Raylene, are always quick and courteous. Today Raylene was my driver and she was on it, had paytender all loaded, ready to go, and delivery was a beeeze. Update: had Clara J on 2/29, arrived in a timely manner and delivery was completed shortly after. 10/10 would recommend.
Faby was awesome!! She answered all our questions and was extremely helpful. We will be back!!
I came here on Saturday and was helped by Jen. She was knowledgable and patient. I have been struggling with some sleep, depression, and other issues and did not want to purchase products with a high THC content. She recommeded CBD and was so through with her recommendations and chill. I purchased all she suggested and I really appreciate the advice, non-judgemental vibe, and over experiece. Ya'll if you're a 30 something year old needing some holistic help come here and ask for Jen.
First time ordering online. The process was super easy and delivery was quick. Michael delivered my order and he was super nice, courteous, and informative. He knocked softly on my door, instead of ringing the bell - that was cool since it didn't rile up my puppies. He handed my stuff, processed payment and we were chatting like old friends. Honestly, this was the best delivery service I've ever encountered.
I still come here at least once a month and even during this pandemic because of Jenn. She's the best bud tender and has so much knowledge. I always ask for her to help and this time, I did the curbside pick up for the first time and she was a great help again. Never a let down and will always go back even coming from the East Bay.
Shout out to Crystal of Caliva Brisbane! I just want to thank you for being so helpful today. You rock!
Placed an order for delivery at 6:50pm with NO NOTICE that they would not be accepting deliveries after 6:30pm. I only found out because I happened to be browsing the site again. If I hadn't accidentally stumbled on this info, I would have been left not high and very dry. I called to cancel but no one would answer, just a very slow talking robot. So when they inevitably show up tomorrow, lol no one will be here except vicious man flesh hungry dogs.Also, I was in here about one week ago on memorial day for the hyped advertisements for the 1c prerolls, spent $50 and they didn't even have any...pretty shady if you ask me. Tried to offer me a mask instead... seriously? Not the first time ive been baited and switched here. This place peaked really fast, I'll never be back.
Jenn was extremely pleasant and helpful. Caliva always has good deals and they will help you find what your looking for.
We visited for the first time today and received an excellent consultation and service from Stone. He walked us through the products and helped us pick what we wanted. Good deals, good prices, great service. We will definitely be back. Thanks Stone
This place is ridiculous. Here is how this goes. 1-Place an online order2-Receive an email that confirms your order and highlights that you will receive another email confirmation when your order is ready which EXPLICITLY STATES that you should NOT come to the store until you receive another email confirmation telling you to come to the store. 3- Wait two hours for the confirmation email that tells you to come pick up your order. 4- Receive email stating order is ready.5- Drive to store 6- Wait in a "special online order line" while watching all the people who didn't place an order go before you7- Watch them lock the doors after an hour in the "special" line because you couldn't get in. 8-Ask a manager wtf and they blame it on "this virus."And just to make the folks that manage this place even more lame, they've now packed your order and have to restock it because they let the folks that didn't have orders packed go first. BRILLIANT! These folks need to lay off their own product and learn how to manage a business. GO TO AIRFIELD. They actually know how to run a store. Damn JayZ Carter- I thought you might be a pro but instead your shit is a mismanaged mess.
I've used this company for delivery several times and they're always timely, super nice and easy to communicate with. Delivery drivers are always super nice and friendly as well. This is the only service I use and will continue recommending it. Just had a delivery last night as a no contact delivery (cuz duh, corona) and Connor was wearing gloves and very professional. 10/10 will use again
Overall it was quick service which is always appreciated. This was my second time back and the receptionist logged me in with no problem and let me thru the door. The line went quickly because they are well staffed - love it. Thomas was the one who helped me and offered me several alternatives as well as which products he recommends for the best price. I only go in for CBD products with the lowest THC for its calming effects without the psychoactive properties. The Dose pen in "calm" does it for me, and Thomas showed me the new 200 "dose" version of the pen, which I am considering for my next visit. On my way out Jess answered some remaining questions that I had and made further recommendations about CBD products that I might like to try. She's the best!Overall, amazingly professional place and that's why I came back!
Good delivery service, but I find out while the driver was en route that their debit card reader was not working--I needed to have cash. (I don't use cash, don't have easy access to a cash machine.) In the past I have used my debit card, and had NO problems. I did have their "accepted" type card.Emilio was very apologetic and super nice. Props to him. Would be 5 stars except for the card read/cash problem.Caliva needs to tell about the card reader problem before the order is complete.
Thank you for all the help during this time to the entire Caliva team! Special shout out to the curbside crew! Alina and Tatiana you were great and carrying those positive vibes! Much needed! Happy belated 420!
I can't believe I'm doing this but I have to give a bad review of this place. My wife and I have been coming here for a long time, I've even got 5 of my friends to also become regulars. The service used to be great, very knowledgeable and personable. In the last couple of months I've noticed a slow decline in my experiences here. I've kept coming back bc I love the products, I have points stored up, and it's 10 minutes away. After yesterday I think my wife and I are going to look for a new dispensary. It was the last straw for us, since this is the third bad experience we've had in a row, all with different staff members, but all along the same vein. I understand that Caliva is growing and undergoing changes. I'm fine with somethings coming and other perks going. What bothers me is the apathetic attitude of a staff member who acts like I should know about things like that already. For example: the new payment system, the treat sheet being discontinued, and products being out of stock.That brings me to my next point; last night. Ok so I place an online pick up order. Sadly most of the stuff I wanted was out of stock, but oh well, I chose the closest item to what I was looking for. I got a confirmation email saying both items would be ready for pick up. My wife did the same. We arrived to pick up the order and I was handed my bag but my wife wasn't handed hers yet. When I asked her what she ordered, she said it was a cartridge by Fun Uncle. Only then did the employee helping us mention "Oh we're out of that, sorry". Okay, weird, not sure why we were able to place an order for it online if it's out of stock, but, fine. We got something else, I paid for the orders and we left.I get in my car and open the bags to check that everything is there bc something with the price felt off. Sure enough, one of the things I ordered wasn't there. So we go back in to get it, and another employee is there. I explain that they missed one of my items and she tells me flatly that it's out of stock. I ask about a comparable product and she repeats that what I'm looking for is out of stock. Sigh. While I'm being rung in for a 4th choice item, I mention that they probably should've said something to us earlier so I didn't have to come back. The girl answers me in a clipped tone saying "it should say in your email". Well no, it didn't actually. And that's a stupid response since it shouldn't be available to order online if it isn't in the store. After we left I realized that they would've done the same thing to my wife had she ordered more than just the Fun Uncle cart. It's on you guys to inform customers if what we order isn't available. Then my wife told me the exact same thing had happened on her last visit, the guy helping her was rude when he shrugged and replied that they hadn't missed the item, it was simply out of stock and that no, it wasn't online, so she must not have ordered it.Well I'm here to tell you that yes, she had placed that order, I saw the confirmation email. Just like the one I got last night, and no, we didn't get a cancellation email. Two of my friends who also come here have also had similar experiences lately so it's not just us. I don't know what changed here at Caliva that affected the guest experience so much but jeez, it's gotten steadily worse. The lack of product availability is also an issue, now that I know what I like, I'm just going to look elsewhere if Caliva can't keep it in stock. I'm really disappointed to say that we probably won't be returning :(
They just can't get an order right. It took over 24 hours for them to get us the order, and then half of it was missing (although they didn't charge us for what was missing). I have never seen them get it completely correct.
First time here and it was great. Starting with the security guard to the tenders, everyone was polite and respectful. Bud-tender was super chill and answered my questions, they also gave me suggestions after seeing my indecisiveness and I was able to pick up a couple things of my liking. On the way out, the security guard politely acknowledged us and sent us off with a classic deuce sign, leaving me with a great first experience at Caliva. I will be back for those purps!
This place was so clean and so professional and my bud tender, Jenn, was hella nice and patient and informative! It was my first time going into a dispensary and so I was pretty nervous but she put me right at ease! Thank you thank you for making this such a pleasant first experience!
I absolutely love this location, from the staff to the products my visits are always amazing! They always go above and beyond to ensure you leave satisfied! I would like to acknowledge Dany for taking time out of their day to help me over the phone with with all my questions. A truly great example of excellent customer service! THANK YOU DANY!!
The cartridge that i bought yesterday looks like it has been used and put it back in the box. It has been resealed and the cartridge doesn't look full. Not sure if this is Caliva's fault or ABX.Update: I was there yesterday to get a replacement and the Manager i spoke to was rude. I showed them the cartridge my friend bought for me and compared it to the same cartridge. Manager said "they look the same" look at the photo i took and you decide if it's the same. I will never come back here ever again.
Caliva appears to be a reputable business. Conversely however, they carry products from other vendors which are sub par. I purchased OM Elixirs Cannabis CBD Tincture. Its packaging is cheap but the price isn't. The dropper of which you are to take a 'dropper full' can barely be opened with out twisting out the plastic under casing. Once finally opened, the dropper itself has no measure indicator. Nor can you actually fill the dropper as scantily stated on the label where it should say 'directions for use'. If that weren't enough, the bottle doesn't close right.Lastly, it does not help for pain.My thoughts are Caliva should stick to their own Tinctures and not sell for OM.
Well let me start by saying prices are reasonable good product lot of varieties although for some reason they keep getting my phone number wrong and I keep having to try to fix it who first they told me they were 11 minutes away the limited 15 minutes away and then they never showed up so I called them and they said the phone number was wrong but how could that be if there was sending me text messages the last two eight were short not 3.5 but 3.3 so won't be buying from them again and web site is glitchy to bad did like it if you short your customers thay won't be for long sorry bout that
First time here and I'm the kind of person that wants to know what I'm getting into.. that being said, KASEN was very helpful and explained the products clearly. I explained to him that I have trouble sleeping at night and struggle with a bit of anxiety. Ended up leaving with Kiva chocolate, pineapple gummies and a 50-dose pen.
TORI is the BOMB DOT COM!! She was super helpful and has good energy just the kind of customer service that makes me come back! Good Options, Quality Product, Clean Dispensary, and Great Staff #TeamCalivaPS Please Sell Birthday Cake Disposable vape pen all year around!
I'm so sick of you guys. Your online service is absolutely horrible. You have the same problem for weeks and you refuse to fix it. Every damn time I order online it says my email or password is invalid it won't let me change the password. Then I have to call you guys and go through the same idiotic thing over and over. 1. Change your password - already did it doesn't work won't let me.2. We don't take orders over the phone so we'll have to try something else. - great so you won't help me.3. Well that didn't work let's delete your account and get you to try and make another account. - okay like we haven't been through this three times already.4. That didn't work either I guess I will have to take your order over the phone. - yeah like I told you in the beginning but thanks for wasting 30 minutes.It will be fixed by next time...Well b******* because this is the fourth time and I'm not wasting another 30 minutes trying to order from a company that doesn't care enough to do something about it weeks ago!Screw you guys!
Absolutely horrible online customer service Murphy wrote that times are bad right now and there is nothing we can do . I placed and order and was told it was on the way. I even got an ETA and 30 mins later got sent another message saying it would be another 1:30mins. I only live 28 mins away and with it being covid season there is not much traffic. Would not recommend this place for delivery!!!!
This is my go to dispensary in San Jose. Parking can be a problem sometimes, depends on the time of day. But other than that I have nothing bad to say about this place. The service is great, the staff is knowledgeable and nice, the inside is nice and clean. With COVID 19 running wild the place has changed obviously. Be prepared to wait in the lobby for a little bit as they only let a certain amount of people inside, and that's understandable. They have a good range of products that changes here and there. I stick with edibles and vaping so that's my forte. If you've never been here, be sure to check it out sometime
Andrew was awesome! He was patient, helpful and answered the questions I had. He was good and knowledgeable about the products. Thank you for your help :)
Just back to reiterate given the news about people dying from vaping cartridges with a bunch of ADDITIVES in them.Caliva uses additives so they can pretend their products are not crap. If the base terpenes suck - GROW BETTER WEED - don't add crap that neither you or anyone else can say we should be inhaling. Why not just stick to the natural extract and be done? The answer is lack of human decency. Lack of human excellence. No other reason to make a THC slurry to mix with essential oils as opposed to growing good weed...is there?
Who needs waiting in line for over an hour then to be subjected to rude rent-a-cops and receptionists? What's interesting is the folks at Caliva don't think the six foot distancing rule applies to them. The receptionists sit side-by-side and the rent-a-cops hang out in very close proximity while they employ their orders. I got fed up and went to CA Collective at 210 Phelan. Great products at competitive prices and much nicer people who really appreciate your business. Forget Caliva. It just shows you what happens when you give directives to otherwise powerless people.
I went for first time to dispensary. A bit nervous, Budtender Miranda made me feel completely at ease. Her knowledge was so helpful and I left with some creams for my aching feet and back and some gummies to try. Thank you Miranda!
i had a very bad experience not human service at all i brought 5 bags of pots from the the in side store when you should have expert people but she gave me a shit product and garbage that even animals will not get nearby not recommending to no one to have that experience like i had
I've only ever had pleasant experiences with Caliva. I gravitate towards the edibles and I've always been able to find vegan and non chocolate options. Apparently there's edible Thursday where you get 10% off your bill. There's also a nice point system that you can redeem for free product. You get 20 points per visit - I just redeemed 120 points for macaroons - coincidentally my favorite product.
If you come you have to ask for Mila, she'll make sure your weed needs are fulfilled indeed. Super helpful, super friendly, she even hooked a newbie up with some goodies for the next time I come by. 10/10Would come by again just to hear that giggle lol
This place is amazing! Recently moved to the area with my girlfriend and we came across this place on Yelp, decided this would be a good first dispensary in the area to try with how close it is and with all the good ratings. Everyone was super helpful and friendly my first time going into the store which made it a very pleasant experience. The store is huge and they have a wide variety of selections, which is awesome. I've become a regular with deliveries recently and haven't had a problem yet! The delivery drivers, Michael, Sean K and Gabe J, have all been very nice. Tonight's driver, Gabe, surprised me with how quick he was! My ETA was roughly one hour and I got my delivery in half that time! Keep up the good work Caliva, you guys never disappoint!
I was super busy and decided to try out a delivery service. It was so easy and most importantly so convenient!!! I just picked what I wanted online and courier delivered all my essentials straight to my door! My courier Emiliano was very nice and professional. Everything was packed in locked ziplock. Definitely will use this service again!
Yousef helped me out today! I was stuck deciding on a few items but he guided me in the right direction and was very patient with me. Overall it was a great experience, especially during a time like this (quarentine).
I wrote a review on Google, but I am going to continue the positivity and praise on Yelp too. Caliva is a very professional place, it is clean and has great employees--from the security guard to the front desk ladies to Tatiana S who recommended some incredible products. I can't say enough good things! I will be a returning customer! If Tatiana's boss reads this, give her a raise!!!! She is so helpful, informational, and very kind!
Placed an order and it was confirmed for delivery at 6pm today. Called 3 times over 5 hours and each time the guy said The delivery was delayed but would still happen. Then I called 20 minutes after the final time he said the delivery would happen and no one answered. 6 hours after my delivery was confirmed, and they can't even reach out for an update or tell me it's been cancelled. With so many other options I'd suggest going literally anywhere else.
Great service, excellent product, reasonable prices. I enjoy the atmosphere as well as the displays. Caliva makes it easy for me to manage my sleep and stress.
Excellent support. I love Caliva Products, specially the AiroPro. Full grams are great, however halfgrams burn really quick and are too expensive. I got into online support and Faye helped me. She explained they didn't have fullgrams at the moment but she was very nice to get my info and let me know when there is news. Please bring back AiroPro!
This review is for PAULA TYLER. My mother in law and I had the absolute pleasure of being helped by her this evening. She is extremely knowledgeable of flower- more than I've had from any other sales person prior. She was sooooo seriously soooooooo and sweet she gave amazing customer service! She has amazing energy and is such a great example of what true old fashion FRIENDLY service is. I will ALWAYS go to her when I visit Caliva!
Been placing orders through Caliva for a few months now. They have always been amazing with quality, customer service and accessibility. I usually get delivery orders and every driver has been wonderful. Tonight, I met a driver I hadn't had before and was SO pleased. His name was Emiliano! He was super nice! Texted me updates the whole way to let me know what was going on. When he arrived, he was very polite, fast and efficient. All while making small talk during the payment process. Thanks for all you do Emiliano! Keep up the good work my dude, hope to see you again next time.
This was my first experience going to any dispensary and honestly it was so much nicer than I expected! Kat helped my boyfriend and I choose the different things we wanted. I went there for edibles and had one specifically in mind that they were able to find in their store. I wasn't sure exactly what edibles I wanted and Kat was super helpful in pointing me in the right direction. After getting home, I tried to open one of the items and was having a really tough time and was honestly thinking that it was just a really hard child lock. I ultimately ended up bringing it back and turns out the mechanism to open it was busted and they were so nice and helped me just exchange it for a new one that would open right there!Thank you Kat & Caliva staff for the great customer service!!
Always very nice people when walking in and ordering . Good advice on what to get and awesome suggestions .Quality items all the time . I'm a regular so I enjoy my visit every single time . You get reward points . For holidays they usually do something fun outside or inside with fun snacks and prizes . Always great parking . Don't mind waiting while busy because it's more time to choose what you want . Inside is very clean and doesn't make you feel like your stuffed up or doing something wrong. Some clubs have gates and bars and this one is very nice and smooth
Placed an order online and dropped by to pick it up. Communication was great; they prepared my order very quickly and emailed me when it was ready (took less than 10 minutes). I was impressed by how smooth the experience was - everyone was so friendly and helpful. I will be back!
Caliva is one of the best. They always have a good selection of product and their budtenders are very knowledgable. I ordered for pickup and it was super easy. When I got inside, Karley went over my order with me and answered some questions I had about some of my products. She was super informed and such a sweet person.
Reina was our bud tender, her knowledge and friendly demeanor was exceptional. We never have a bad experience here because of people like her. Thanks again be back soon
I've never gone to a dispensary before so I was super nervous. Everyone was so nice and welcoming. The security man was so sweet and the front desk lady even walked me into the other room! Jenn helped me choose some things and she answered all my questions and was super informative. I didn't feel rushed at all. I will definitely come back here for sure!
Had a recent order for a family member ordered and delivered within a few hours. Gabe was the delivery man, and he did a great job keeping us updated on his ETA via text, and making sure we had the proper payment info in place to make for a quick and efficient delivery. We were very pleased with the service both Gabe and Caliva provided. To receive an order placed on line in a few hours is excellent service!
Another highly rated review for this dispensary from me to the community! My wife and I have nothing but wonderful things to say about Caliva and its staff. Inside is like another realm from the outside and is always kept clean and cool. The bud tenders and staff, including security, are always so welcoming and friendly, but this review in particular goes out to Kasen.He is always so calm and very helpful. He is quick to respond and he pays close and personal attention to what loyal customers, like my wife and I, would go to when searching for products. He displayed excellent customer service on our last online order/pick-up that made my wife and I feel like our loyalty was sincerely acknowledged and appreciated.To all Caliva staff, keep up the wonderful work and kindness that's clearly displayed every time we enter the store. We appreciate all of you!
Admission: I've never used Yelp before. I always figured people either exaggerate bad experiences or hyperbolize pleasant ones. But then I had a really great experience at this establishment. It's refreshing to go to a dispensary and converse with someone who really knows what they are talking about. Ben is that person. It's one thing to make a great recommendation, but it's rarer when the product does exactly what the budtender told me it would do. After many times of the opposite happening, I'll be returning for sure. Also, finding the right edible can be difficult for many reasons. Chelsea's recommendation was spot on because it tasted really good, and her dosage rec was spot on. You can tell both Chelsea and Ben are passionate about sincerely helping people. Thanks y'all.I wouldn't be a yelp user without one complaint, but it doesn't really affect the overall experience: the parking lot is not ideal, especially not leaving. Service made up for any inconvenience of that aspect.
Always fast and friendly service. Wide selection of indica and edibles. They give military discounts and Jared helped us out with picking the right flowers for our medical needs.
Tati is the best! She gave me great options to choose from and solid reviews to help me make a decision. I appreciated her help :-)
We waited 40 minutes outside and I preordered online Horrible! We left And went to Haze after that and it took 2 minutes to buy it and it was cheaper. I will never come back to Caliva .
First time visit yesterday and was really amazed at the wonderful customer service and good vibes. We were assisted by Karley, she absolutely amazing and very knowledgeable. My boyfriend was looking for edible with only CBD to help with pain, and I was looking for a mix - something for pain and sleep, one that will help me focus and also something fun. Karley listened to our needs and what we were requesting. She showed us items matched our request and also gave us other options and explained the benefits. Karley is well educated, compassionate and super sweet
Jenn Hotz was fantastic with her knowledge and recommendations and made my husband want to come back.Karley Waters was helpful and has super customer service!
Always a pleasureTo visit my friendly, patient, informative bud tenders( Jarred and Marduk)andDelivery drivers in San Jose Caliva. The Treat Sheet is always a nice surprise and I always feel well taken care of when I finish my visit. Not to mention the best taco Tuesday truck, do not mis
Hi y'all! So first off I loved the atmosphere of this shop! I'm from Seattle and just moved down here a month ago and my coworker brought me down. You gotta sign up for your first time visiting, but it's very painless and just takes a couple minutes. Now on to the experience. Fantastic. EVERYONE is friendly. Granted, yes it's their job to be "friendly" and whatnot but it seemed genuine to me. Raju (please forgive me for my spelling it wrong. I left the paper at home) was hella dope. Seemed like once conversation got rolling and if you ask for his genuine opinion on the products, his face lit up and he just starts pulling out his favs. The only thing I was disappointed about was the fact that there's no tip jars....but he explained if I did this it would help. This is my first review from TONS of people telling me to leave a yelp review. HOOK RAJU UP. Everyone else. Have fun and enjoy the folks down there. Good selections and not bad prices at all!
Amazing. Everyone is so helpful, kind and really just wants to help. Chic and so lovely.
We love Caliva and Sanju is our preferred Trip Advisor. Professional, intuitive, and personable...it doesn't get much better. Hats off to the management for the solid hire. Byeeeeee!
my first time coming here and everyone was so nice! its cash only but you can pat card if you sign up for this pay account, with a fee. ATM inside!! clean place, will come again! :) First timers get a $5 off token!
This review goes to Jill, I've been to this location several times & although everyone is helpful, my dad has had a hard time finding a product that would ease his chronic pain, I asked Jill what product she would recommend & although I didn't buy it right away, I took that advice into consideration, I finally came in with my dad & after only ONE recommendation from her, she go it !!! This girl knows her stuff !!!!! I am happy to let you know that the product you recommended has helped my dad have an easier day. Thanks Jill :)
Shoutout to Yosef!! Told him what I was looking for and he gave me a ton of recommendations, I couldn't decide! He was humble and patient with all of our questions. Also, super chill, laid back, and easy to talk to! Really loved his customer service and energy!!! He made my experience more enjoyable and hopefully when I come back he can help me out again! This man deserves a raise!!
If you are not shopping here, you are shopping at the wrong place!The service, knowledge and product assortment is one of best I've ever had the opportunity to experience!!The building Is clean, safe and secureWant to give a huge THANK YOU to Team Caliva, especially Becca, Erin and Kevin--You guys know your product! I will be coming to Caliva for all my needs.You guys ROCK!!!
Stone and Tim helped me out with my curb side order! Great service, we're super helpful and knowledgeable and really helped me out!
I've both visited in-person and have had a delivery from Caliva. Great customer service, especially for the delivery! They promptly called me when they let me know that they weren't able to make the delivery the night of because of high volume (understandable) and were able to reschedule me to next morning. They also called me when one of the items I ordered wasn't in stock anymore and were able to offer me a similar replacement item (and charged me the price of the replacement item instead). They even provided a promo code to me for the inconvenience. Highly recommended!
Clean dispensary and friendly/knowledgeable bud tenders. Murphy had excellent information for me for regarding sleep. Thanks!
Brian is the number one budtender in the history of the universe. If you wanna get really stoned, Brian's your guy. All he does is Nguyen.
Got a cartridge and it didn't work so I came back the next day to see if they can fix it. I got a new cart and it works fine! Really good vibes from Marduk and Miranda, very insightful and helpful!
Caliva is a quality dispensary with the most kind, considerate staff who really know their products. I recently had a curbside order and just because I had to wait a few minutes longer, Miranda and Karley gave me a 20% discount! Really, the wait was brief but this just shows the quality and care that is placed on customer service. This is the best place to shop especially during this pandemic.
Paula was so friendly and helpful. This was my very first visit to this dispensary, she told me about all their great deals and specials. Can not wait to go back for taco Tuesday!
John was very helpful and informational in our visit along with the security guard and the rest of the staff. All around great visit to caliva with alright prices!Definitely coming back!
I wanted to recognize an excellent bud tender there (Miranda) and it actually is the second time I have had her assistance during these pandemic times. First, Caliva is a great location, all the staff are friendly and helpful from the security guard out front, to check in, to the budtenders. Miranda even recognized my crocheted facemask that my wife made and it had been at least two weeks since my last visit. Great service from Miranda who recommended some great deals and went searching for a specific CBD cream I was looking for. Top notch location and IT IS LOCAL!
Bre helped me find the right CBD oil to help with my joint pain. Excellent and welcoming service at the door and in the bud room. I had a fantastic experience, so this'll definitely be my new go-to dispensary!
Wow amazing bud!!!! Great service and chill vibe, even through these hard times. This visit was a reminder of the good in the world. My bud tender, Stone, was such a breath of fresh air, he put me onto some fire strains that changed my day for the better!! His knowledge on the product was superb and very extensive. I really appreciated his thorough customer service, which ultimately made me walk out the door with a smile on my face!!!
Would love to give the 5 star review to Yousef who rang my girlfriend and I up tonight. Really humble, friendly and funny. I would love to come back to be rang up by Yousef all the time lmao. Told him I needed something for relief/sleep and I'm not much of a smoker, but he recommended me different strains and gummies. Really need this guy's energy everywhere!
*photos are from first visit I am new to the San Jose area and have tried several other dispensaries in the vicinity and I must say hands down Caliva will always have my business. With Caliva you know exactly what you are getting and that the quality will always be there regardless if you spend 30 dollars or 100 dollars...I usually go to the dispensary but today I decided to try your delivery feature. Upon making my order I received a call saying one of the items I had purchased was sold out. The gentleman on the phone was very quick to help me find something similar and to my liking. My delivery driver was Michael(mike)..he was very polite and answered a few questions I had with ease. He was extremely knowledgeable of the caliva brand and standard which I really liked as I felt even more comfortable with choosing caliva. Mike took the time to make sure any and all questions were answered which I greatly appreciated. Thank you Caliva for always living up to the gold star standard!
Best club is San Jose. All the Wellness Consultants are amazing, Delivery service is Amazing!
Staff is very rude I always have to wait at least 45min on top of waiting for there text to say it's ready, spoke to the online rep and they were arguing with me and had the nerve to send pictures of there screens just to reveal that they were in the wrong . And every time I ask for a manager they are always busy . Bs
First time at a dispensary! This place is awesome. Everyone was super friendly. I had come by looking for a particular type of strain that a friend had left at my house a while back that I enjoyed. Jarred was a huge help and was able to find me the exact strain I was searching for - Super Glue. Definitely gonna come back, especially since it's a 5 minute drive from my house.
Excellent customer service from the Raylene today! They called before the order went out and I was able to track every bit of the order by text messages which is amazing. This was my first delivery and I'm totally pleased and have nothing but stellar reviews.
Just got a delivery from Caliva by Gabe J. His service was super friendly. I was using paytender for the first time and he was super helpful and made sure I had all the information correct. I appreciated the fast service especially since I hurt my back at work today and was looking for pain relief. I got the Caliva maximum strength lotion and animal cookies preroll from Humboldt Farms both of which I'm excited to try!
Great company, fast and friendly delivery service. Always willing to make sure the orders are correct. A+++
So I ordered a few items earlier this week on Monday. By Thursday morning, I didn't get any updates where anything were (besides that everything was packed and ready to deliver), that was texted to me on Tuesday morning. Gave yesterday another shot to wait, still nada. So upon waking this morning, I messaged Caliva regarding the issue, and around 8:30am, Jane responded and quickly took action. By around 9:15am, my delivery came. I understand it's very busy and trying times for some open businesses, and we all must understand how chaotic things can be, especially with prioritizing. Communication isn't as great as it can be due to all the closures and schedule changes, but I'm satisfied because a problem was addressed, it was acknowledged, and it was taken care of immediately. Customer service is important these days, and the survival of each business is important. I'm happy to have a dispensary that communicates and serves to the highest level of excellence. I appreciate that effort. Looking forward to today with my tasty flowers. Stay blessed.
I had some friends visiting whose bucket list included going to a dispensary in CA. Caliva was the perfect place. From the Security guard in front to Chelsea (who was amazing, kind, and informative) everyone greeted us and made us feel welcome. We enjoyed our chat with Chelsea and we will definitely be coming back. Thanks so much for helping out 3 first timers!
Caliva has cultivated a nice variety of flowers themselves and has brought in Autumn Brand greenhouse buds, among others. I like the variety. So far, everything I've smoked has been flavorful and smooth. I also like that they are providing the Bhang chocolate bars. My last visit was particularly nice as Breanna helped me best utilize my 40% off special menu coupon with the holiday 30% Caliva flowers. I get to try some of the Chill chocolate and smoke some fine Blue Dream over this long weekend! Breanna did a great job helping me and I appreciate it. I recommend Caliva to my friends. The one thing I'd like to see more of is a selection of "old fashioned" and affordable bubble hash.
I love Caliva. They have a wonderful selection and they're very dependable! Joe the delivery guy is exceptional and very fast! Highly recommended
My bud-tender Miranda was extremely knowledgable and really went the extra mile in explaining the ins and outs of the different products and delivery methods. Personally, I went for a combination of edibles and vape pens but she is an expert in the traditional weed flower as well. I can't recommend Caliva and Miranda enough!
First time at Caliva, they were very professional and informative. I was helped by Kay R. She got what I asked for and guided me on a new product for me. I will definitely go back.
Surprisingly for my high tolerance, I still got high and all this happend after my boy KEVIN recommended the "PROTAB" hybrid... Good job Kevin, keep going.
Solid atmosphere, selection, and pricing. Caliva always offers a great experience. The customer service is also on point... Yousef in particular! He is an awesome consultant if you're ever unsure about what you're looking for!
This place is a crown jewel among the other gems of the local dispensaries- seriously, don't buy your cannabis anywhere else. There are 3 reasons why this has been my go-to place for years now.. 1. The Product: Their own brand is better than some of the "top shelf" brands you see in most dispensaries, and usually cheaper than any of them too. The range of products and brands they carry is unmatched, and most importantly the consistent-quality never falters. I've never had them be out of a product I was trying to buy. 2. The Place: These guys had their s#%t together before COVID came to town, and it was no different when new rules were imposed. The property is visibly maintained and free of trash, there are numerous cameras to provide a sense of security (as well as the always friendly security guards), and now they are very careful about how many people are in the building at one time. They also have 6ft markers to keep everyone safe as possible. Have a pretty neat mural on the side of the building too. 3. The People: This reason alone is why I only shop at Caliva. I genuinely look forward to my shopping experience with their employees, who are some of the kindest and knowledgeable folks I've encountered behind the counter. When waiting in line I often see the employees picking up trash or greeting customers as they come into work, and that's before they even clock in. Extra special props to Reina B., that woman is hands down the best budtender I've interacted with. Very down to earth, provides good info on products without pushing her own perspective like other budtenders, and always makes sure the customer has a good experience. Definitely deserves a raise or a promotion.
My fav dispensary in the Southbay! I like their wide selections of items available, ranging from CBD to THC. The place is always clean, staffs are helpful and knowledgeable, and the price is reasonable. I appreciate how they streamline the amount of people going in and out in lieu of COVID. I've emailed them a few times inquiring about products and sales, and they've always been good about responding back in a quick and timely manner. Oh yeah, they also have a nice mission statement on their websites. I will always be a customer as long I reside here.
Favorite delivery service. Called in with some questions and Tim Quinn helped me out choosing the right dosage and suggested my new favorite edibles. Great knowledge of the product and customer service.
This is my 4th trip and its always been pleasant. They have a lot of safety and social distancing measures in place. Today Miranda helped me out and patiently waited for me to withdraw money from atm as I forgot how much extra in taxes one has to pay as well .
*all employees areRockstars. Nothing at all I say is to be construed as negative feedback towards the. Each one is terrific!! So.. They (Caliva/business owner) had quarter bags for 19.99 first time I purchased was june 2018. Bag consisted of 1/4oz (7gms) ground flower budlettes chwmdog alien OG were/are namely the propriety flowrrs grown on site. The 'Caliva bags' are perfect for rolling and worked really well for intended effect. User can pinch and roll or Dump and Snap. Sturdy bag. Zipper harder than heck to open which I actually appreciate. Squeal of a deal. I was a little bummed they did not honor 5 Dollar discount chip they provide on initial visit as insentive for return and they did not allow a veterans discount either which they I've provided ID for and they have on file. BUT...At 19.99 who cares right? It's a quarter. THEN TRAGEDY 1 month later They raised it to 24.99Still no honoring of (2) now available discounts Then my friends...2 weeks later They raise it to 31.00 (which after tax is $34.xx!!!!!Still no discount!!!! Then... Then.... Then...!!!!1 WEEK LATER they LOWER the bag size to 5GRAMS!!! Not 7rams. Same price $34.xx NO VETERANS DISCOUNT NO 5$ discount chip!!!! So month and a half they doubled the price and still won't cop to the discounts I'm eligible to. Like I said ^^ employees...Have to give it up to the employees. They are all rockstars. Always engaging. Polite. Energetic. Whomever does the hiring is a great people reader.... that being said; if it's the owner (duh I guess. H/r?) than I say... hey let's keep up the sweet customer service and tone down the prices!
This was my first time ever going to a dispensary and I had a great experience. My friends and I went here at 7pm on a Sunday night and there was no wait. We got our IDs checked at the front door, created an account, and walked in all in a few mins.Thomas was our "budtender" and was super helpful and friendly. I'm still pretty new to all of this and Thomas answered all my questions and did not make me feel stupid for asking really novice questions! He was super knowledgeable on edibles. Warning, the tax for weed in CA is hella high - like 30%, but hopefully our state uses it for something good. I don't mind paying the tax too much and it's better than getting on the streets of the jungle.
Affordable for sure and great service. I wasn't too impressed with their selection considering I'm a sativa fan but that's how it is at most places in NorCal.
if i can do zero stars i would i am very disappointed with whoever i spoke to in my process of my delivery the app kept kicking me off and i would try and redo the order since i couldn't drive there. i tried using my $15off my order that i received on my app and never got the actual coupon code so i asked for help and they made it harder for me to understand the problem. not matter what you should have the patience to hide someone through it. but thank you to my delivery driver donald b! so sweet and understanding and helped me right through everything since my price never changed and i let him know that when i asked in the chat they told me my new balance and i even took a screenshot of that chat and not once did he argue or gave me attitude or he didnt just get back in his car amd drove off. donald had the patience to call back to the store and know why my balance never changed! thank you so much donald and i hope that you get recognized for your amazing customer service
Gabe is a very cool n polite guy. A++++ always punctual..A++++++++++++++++++++++++Appreciate delivery and convenience.
The budtenders here are so kind and knowledgable. I was lucky enough to be helped by Rebecca O. and I felt like she really cared about my satisfaction and answered all of my questions. I am so satisfied with my purchases and definitely will be returning!!
I just placed the delivery order last night, and they delivered for me this early morning. I missed it with a lot of confusion because this is the first time that I order from them. Their customer service is fast and helpful; they helped to reschedule for my order. The delivery person is also amiable. I had a good experience with them.
Ahhh love this place!! Such a wide selection of products and so many flavors, styles, and brands! The building itself is also very appealing.. clean but fun/cool.Customer service: amazing. These people really know their stuff and always seem to have a smile on their faces.. try to get Dennis he's the shit
I got delivery and it was awesome!! Fast and efficient service. Diane H was my delivery driver and she was super nice and made the transaction fast. I will definitely be ordering again
I first entered this well cared for, clean, modern and beautifully lit collective a few years ago. It's very accessible for my wheelchair and everyone once there is so friendly. It's clear they all respect their customers and their product. I chose to write today because I just got my first delivery. Joe was sooner than predicted, patient, and took time to help me correct where I set up paytender incorrectly. The products here are great! I've never had a single complaint about quality, inaccuracy, or a gear malfunction. A favorite!Try the Dogwalkers!
Since I'm 21 now, I was able to go inside for the first time!! And I gotta say, I really fuck with the atmosphere, layout, and customer service that this wonderful establishment provides. I don't recall the kid's name who helped me out, but great thanks to him; being able to recommend exactly what I was looking for! It makes me very happy to know he knew what he was talking about.Hope y'all keep serving up for a long time!! P.S. Left with the Wedding Cake, It's FIRE.
Kavley, I highly recommend this girl very professional help me with all my needs. Choose very kind and considerate knew what I wanted was very helpful
I've been on a journey of my life trying to track down a new ABX Jeremy Fish Edition pen and wound up contacting several dispensaries hoping one would turn up. Most places just straight out said "No. Have a good day", not very helpful at all.Upon more Google research I ended up calling Caliva and spoke to a really sweet young lady named Alina. I forgot I had already contacted them, lol, but our names are so similar I recognized thatI had already asked her! Alina went above & beyond as a Customer Service Rep and did her own research, contacted other vendors and was even directed to the manufacturer but still nothing. I think if Alina hadn't been so nice, thorough and extremely helpful I would throw my phone across the room, lol, but again- her sweet demeanor and super extra help made me feel like she did everything I would have done plus more! Thank you, Alina! I'm not giving up on locating this special edition kit but I will DEFINITELY use Caliva as my source for everything else! With that kind of customer service, who wouldn't? Thanks so much, Alina! I know you understood my pain and extremely appreciate all your efforts!!
Omg so we made our first online order for an instore pick up! I was super nervous that it would be an ordeal but it was a breeze! The staff, as always, was and is super sweet and genuine! Front desk staff was smiley as always! Lai helped us out at the pick up desk and pulled out everything we had ordered and triple checked that we had everything, super helpful! Thanks so much Lai for making it a fast and smooth pick up!
Had a great experience thanks to Rebecca O. and her customer service! She was quick and informative. Thanks Rebecca and Caliva, I'll definitely be returning!
Caliva is great! I love the delivery service so I can be lazy and my face driver Sean K is amazing!!!
Everyone who I've interacted with is delightful. Great product. Came from Colorado and to be honest, Cali dispensaries do not stack up at all, except for Caliva. It's the closest I've found were quality and cleanliness of product is important. I'm super picky and this place is awesome. Extracts, vapes (I recommend heavy hitters), wana edibles, deli flower. It's all great.
I DO NOT AND WILL NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE!! Just went here today for the VERY first time and while the ladies ar the front were very sweet the budtender in the back with long hair and stretched out ear lobes, didn't get his name, was an absolute dick to my friend He was offensive and condescending. My friend isn't very familiar with weed or which strains or mediums of it will affect his senses or anxiety and he was asking questions and this guy was kurt and rude saying things like "didn't I just say that?" Or "what did you not understand?" He was informative and seemed to be knowledgeable but his tone was mean. Just watch out for this dude... he wasn't as mean to me because I knew a bit more about weed, still no excuse though...I won't go back, the weed better be worth it to make up for his piss poor customer service.
Yousef was very helpful and very nice. He was also very professional and told me about the specials! I've been going quite a few times now and so far this has been my very best visit. I do love this place regardless for staff and productss but visits like this really convince me to keep going back
First time ordering delivery from here. It took a while, but they let me know when I ordered it'd be a while. The person who delivered it was super helpful since I didn't know wtf I was doing.
I ordered the other day and scheduled a delivery. Got the confirmation, added my payment info, etc. After that radio silence. I contacted customer service via the site, email, and attempted to call the store. I never heard back and never received my order. I understand times are tough rn but communication goes a long way.
Really nice place! With great decor. Very welcoming, thanks to Wellness Consultant, Jonathan Bergh for being so resourceful and helpful.
Hey there Caliva! Want you to k ow the experience was amazing coming in there and meeting your wonderful staff! Especially Karley or Kavley not quite sure but she is so cool! She took the time to show me everything and break it all down with full knowledge! With a great smile!! That smile is great and it came with a great attitude! This is my second review on her and I i hope she got the first one! Customer service #1Smiles#1Service#1 Jen thank you for your help today your amazing! 03/1/20
Went in twice within the last two weeks and both times not really knowing exactly what I was looking for. But luckily on each visit, Yousef and Sanju were able to help me out and they both were able to suggest a product that I will definitely buy again. Overall, each of the staff members have always been very warm and inviting and I'm thankful they're willing to take care of our needs during this difficult time.
Marduk zaya helped us out today and he went out of his way. Super chill guy and offered great resources for what I was looking for. I'll definitely be back to talk to him.
Caliva offers a great service. Tons of variety, quality products, and quick delivery. Most recently, Diane was my delivery driver and she was amazing! She was friendly to my dogs and very sweet! Thanks, Caliva!
It was very professional & Tidy. I loved the aroma it gave me also it was a quick wait to be attended , they give you a tablet from witch to choose your preferred medicinal use, witch is super cool to me , Definitely will be back !
Came into today to get some specific cartridges & Jill helped me out; she was really awesome. Love it when I go to clubs where the customer service + atmosphere is so positive. Seriously, just coming inside can turn around a bad day - & as far as the product; I can only recommend!!
I love this place 4 star do to the long lines but customer service is amazing from the first time I went and has been completely consistent, pretty rolls are amazing and I have only been let down on one that I have purchased but it wasn't completely bad I totally recommend this place as far as atmosphere, customer service, great flowers, and reasonable prices, plus the merchandise is pretty awesome!
Huge variety but that's where it stops.Here is a comparison of Caliva vs Elemental Wellness based on buying from both:Speed of delivery Elemental: Less than 1.5 hours (every time, over 10 orders) after very prompt calls to set delivery time and then meet the promise - every time. Caliva: More than 4 hours (twice). The reason given: not enough drivers.Delivery person behavior Elemental: Polite, upbeat, and competent Caliva: How long did you ride for Hell's Angels and why don't you have any change from $140 of cash for my $122.45 purchase?Delivery procedure Elemental: Asks you to check the bag's contents for accuracy. Caliva: Drop, go, and don't look back.Did they get lost? Elemental: No Caliva: Got lost 2 out of 2 timesExample: The driver was given the wrong address by Caliva (even though it was correct in Caliva's system - I checked). The driver had to call me to get the correct address from me, the customer. Then, the delivery guy had to get the Caliva mothership to reset his delivery entirely and start over.Wisdom (senior citizen) discount? Elemental: Yes Caliva: NoVariety of brands and strains Elemental: Good Caliva: GreatEase of placing an online order Elemental: Simple, functional and fast. Caliva: How do you find the *^/@!# Cart button? And, I don't understand why they make a big deal out of your order being accepted - it causes even more delay.Employees Elemental: From visits to Elemental, and delivery. Every staff member is intelligent and calm with good humor. Genuine care for the customer. Love working at Elemental. Caliva: From delivery experiences only Delivery 1: Surly Delivery 2: Lost in the Ozone, seemed like Cheech Marin in the 1970s.A retail chain that most resembles each dispensary Elemental: Nordstrom Caliva: K-MartStrategic issues Caliva: What is its next trick after going fully vertical and raising a lot of money? Assuming growth involves going to other cities, will Caliva's full-vertical model be profitable in states whose cannabis markets are much smaller? How will it return enough shareholder value (on $70M of Series A investment)? Elemental: How can Elemental scale up and avoid being crushed by much larger competitors, even though its customer service is better? If acquired, will the acquirer value Elemental's culture of caring and customer satisfaction?
Friendly staff, great deals on products, and the best part is that its grown, manufactured and sold on site. Their products are better than the stuff youll pay roughly double the price for in the city.
One thing I have to mention: with the exclusion of tax, You think you're paying way less than you actually are. please include tax in the pricing of your products!!
Definitely my favorite spot in town. Employees are friendly and knowledgeable about product. Good deals and good product!
Really helpful, Yusef, thanks you. Would come back again. Came in and he recommend some great strains for vapes. Sanju as well
This place has gone down the toilets. All the deals suck ass, the bud tenders have no knowledge, every time my boyfriend and I go in we end up schooling them. I have to make sure to triple check what they put in my bag because so many times they put in a cheap ass shitty eighth instead of the primo stuff I wanted. Once you leave you can't return it. I haven't been in a while because for way too long they only took cash. They are always out of your favorites plus they took away the Caliva discount cards which were pretty cool. I got an email about edibles on sale so I just called, sat in hold for 29 minutes then gave up. They hold message is annoying, it's a woman voice meeting you know someone will be with you shortly and then silence for 3 seconds. It made me want to blow my brains out. I then wen back to the website and realized all the edibles on sale were the worst ones ever. They probably just had an overstock and are trying to push them. I got to Natural Pain Relief around the corner, not as nice of a place but dope deals and great prices. Sorry Caliva, I tried to remain loyal but you have done your customers dirty. I hope you get it together soon.
Caliva has been my #1 spot for cartridges in San Jose. Their afternoon delight is perfect for a smooth smoke. This review is for the bud-tender Paula. I might love the cartridges but I especially love the consistency in service. When I walk into Caliva and catch a glimpse of Paula's smile I know I'm going to have an amazing customer experience every-time. She's highly knowledgeable of her products and is generally sweet. If you stop into Caliva make sure to go Paula's way :)
Reina Bruno is hands down one of the best bartenders I have had!! She is very knowledgeable, has great customer service! I will definitely be back for some more goodies!!!
I placed an order online and had it delivered within an hour. Gabe J was awesome. Super fast delivery and great service
Caliva is my go to delivery service! Their drivers are always amazing (Super shout out to my 2 faves Gabe and Clara!!!) They are always on time if not early and are always in communication! Delivery is always on point and they always make good in a timely manner if something isn't exactly what you ordered. I cannot recommend them enough! Thank you Caliva!!!
Remind me why I drive 45 minutes to pick up my weed instead of calling the handsome young man who delivers in my neighborhood? I was because I liked being able to order ahead of time and get in and out quickly. Make sure you remember that they only hold your order for so long. I had a big order lined up, 'bout $300. Poor Paula, my client relations manager, had to listen to me bitch for twenty minutes because they'd restocked my order. Get in there quick, folks! Pick it up or lose it. But like I said, I can save an hour and a half of my own time by not bothering, and that's not only the way I'll be doing it in the future, but it's the way I recommend everyone else do it.
Youseff was a huge help, showed us everything we wanted to look at and guided us through our first time here. He really made the experience worth it. I will definitely be returned hopefully on another shift with him. Definitely need more people like youseff in the world, YOURE DOING GREAT BRO!
Thanks so much to Mila for helping me out today search for a affordable cartridge shes super nice and helpful indeed.
Brian, one of the Budtenders, has been extremely helpful on every occasion. He consistently gives great recommendations, and always maintains a positive attitude. Additionally, he has an idea for introducing Coffee Bean "palette cleansers" - jars readily available to help customers cleanse their senses whilst sampling various flower strains. This is an excellent idea. Caliva - pay more attention to Brian.
I would like to give 10 stars if I could :DI went to this store last week for the first time ever going to a dispensary and I had a great experience. I met this guy named Andres T who was very enthusiastic, patient,and friendly. He also answered every questions I asked, and his explanation was super clear and easy to understand. I'm very satisfied with his service as well as the product of the store.
When Caliva first opened, it was cash only. Several months ago, they started accepting debit and credit cards. Today when I went there, I was disappointed to hear that it was once again cash only. Why no more cards? The bud tender rattled off some weak and incomprehensible reason. And my purchase included over $20 in taxes! I had a 10% off card that was no longer "good" even though there was no expiration date on it.
I called in one time and asked for help, i received help from a very kind lady, i believe her name was Alina. She was very helpful and informative over the phone! thank you for the excellent service!
Great and very stylish spot! Clean, modern, great products. Need to give my man Kevin a shoutout as he was really helpful with his guidance. With his hello I found everything I was looking for and more!
Well another great delivery. Thank you Justin B, for the great conversation and answering my questions about the different creams for arthritis in my joints. Very knowledgeable!
Great customer service from Alina!! I had so many questions over the phone and she was so patient with me and was very helpful. Thanks for your help Alina!!
I always buy my stuff at Caliva because the stuff is primo and the environment is relaxed. The clerk named Stone was knowledgeable about the different types of weed and was really helpful, this guy helped make my day hats off to him.
I used Caliva delivery and my driver Raylene was awesome! She was able to answer my questions about the product which was really helpful. She also delivered it in a timely matter which is greatly appreciated!
On behalf of my husband we want to say thank you Ben, Tatiana, Karley and Mila for a phenomenal service! Keep up the good work!!!!
I've not been there in person yet, but every delivery I've gotten has been great. I've had only one delivery issue months ago (over the course of many deliveries), and it was rectified immediately. The staff are super nice and personable. I also love that they have Paytender so debit is available again. I definitely recommend Caliva! (Emiliano and every other driver I've had are the best!)
I drive 20 minutes out of my way to visit Caliva. It's by far my favorite dispensary in the area. Their team is v knowledgeable and also so nice! I always leave smiling. Also, check out their rewards program!
Decided to give Caliva my business after reading reviews of the dispensaries in the area. Thomas was very knowledgeable and efficient. My visit was under 10 minutes and I got a great deal! I would definitely recommend this place!
I have to admit it was a little intimidating walking in here but Jonathan made cannabis buying so easy! Extremely knowledgeable and friendly. Can't wait to come back! Thank You Jonathan.
Paula Tyler was a huge help during the birthday anniversary. She answered all of my questions and made excellent recommendations. I will be returning based on her customer service!!
I placed an online order on the weekend and 1.5 hours later Diane brought me my order and had me make sure everything was there. Great Service!
Caliva. This place looks lovely and staff are helpful HOWEVER I have had two terrible experiences with this place. Second time I went in person they did not fulfill my entire order. I got 1 item but the other was not in my bag when I got home and looked a few days later. Now, I know you might be thinking someone in my household could have taken it, but it was in a location that I assure they could not. Second issue, I got a delivery scheduled and confirmed thru email. The driver.....just never showed up. I have tried calling, submitting 2 different responses to customer service and yet still nothing days later. This place has a shiny veneer but is horrible. I rarely write reviews but this place is so ridiculous that I cant help but writing a horrible review. If you want to have items stolen, no deliveries, no response from customer service- then I fully suggest you shop here. THE worst!
Diane the driver is awesome! First time delivery went amazing! From start to finish I had a smooth experience. Good flower options and I loved the edibles I got. They hooked me up with two practically free house doobies with my $75 purchase they were each a penny and they threw in a free face mask. I haven't tried my product yet but I was so happy with their customer service and whole operation I came on here to brag!
This system is dope. I've never been to a store, only gotten delivery. Today Gabe delivered to me in a timely manner and was a pleasure! Last time Kelly delivered and he was awesome too. Thanks Caliva!
I want to write a review to have Esmail recognized. He is a very knowledgeable and kind driver. Esmail followed my instructions to the T and was able to walk the order to my door. Look forward to ordering again in the future as Caliva never disappoints. Thank you!
5 stars for product and prices , great dispensary ...but not so with the service today. I made a joke today about weighing the eighth when I got home and the girl behind the counter got immediately heated (no idea why) even went as far as to throw a subliminal insult and say "or you could get a hobby instead of trying to out people"..not sure if this is borne of a nervousness over me weighing it and I was actually joking about a shady business practice , or if she just didn't like me...either way I don't let my personal feelings affect my professional interactions and I expect the same of others, definitely was not looking to be insulted while I'm spending my money at their establishment
This is by far, the BEST dispensary I have ever visited. The quality of their products is still unmatched for me. But the best part about it is the staff members. My favorite thing to get from here is the super session pre rolls. I recommend it any to flower enthusiasts. A BIG shoutout to Paula and Madeline! :)
Been coming here for two years now and a lot of the staff is super nice and helpful. Today in particular, I was helped by Thomas (T) and it was his first week there. As soon as I walked up, he introduced himself and shook my hand, already know this will be a great visit for myself. He was helpful and asked my opinion on things to knowledge himself on what customers enjoy. He was very intuitive to my needs and really made my day go by smoothly. He even asked things I recommend since I've been an smoker for 5+ years. Keep up the great work dude!
Thomas and Jessica are awesome. They were immensely accommodating, recognized me as a return customer and went above and beyond to help me with a pricing matter.
I have been here multiple times and every time was amazing. Today when I walked in I was helped out by Tori. She greeted me with a smile and asked me what I was looking for. After telling her she recommended a lot of different options and told me about each one. I ended up buying everything she recommended! Happy with my purchase and will be coming back! Thanks again for all your help Tori, you were awesome!
I was looking for a dispensary that carried a Moxie dart for a friend who was recovering from a motorcycle accident (pro tip: Moxie darts are pretty handicapable friendly due to the magnetic cartridge feature and flat shape!) and made the mistake of going to Theraleaf first. I tried to use my passport because my ID expired last month and the girl at the front wouldn't get off the phone to talk to me about my expired ID and valid passport. Just said 'I only take IDs.' I left and came here. It was like night and day! The front desk ladies were so nice and walked me through the first visit process. Kat ended up helping me out and she was super helpful! She even looked for the last 2 Moxie cartridges they currently had in stock. I also told her I wanted sativa gummies and flower and her recommendations were great! The weed itself was really good quality too and reasonably priced. It didn't even burn! I will definitely be back when I'm in the area! Thanks, Kat!
One of my favorite peoples who works at Caliva, Gabe, he's hella chill and so dope! I came in and told him exactly what I needed and he helped explain the best product for what I was looking for. He's hella knowledgeable!! He even through in some fact checks on the topicals for which ones are the best in the country.
My new go to spot! Staff was kind and helpful from the time I hit the parking lot. Yousef helped me find what I was looking for. Thank you! They are cash only, so make sure you bring some.
Caliva is the best dispensary around. They have tons of products, a clean and stylish environment, and the most welcoming staff. My budtender Akash P. was the BEST! He was very knowledgeable on alllll of their products (which must be ridiculously difficult considering their product line-up is probably double to triple that of other dispensaries in San Jose)! He did not rush me or make me feel intimidated to ask a million questions. He was friendly and really made Caliva shine. The products were great, but Akash was/is more than enough of a reason to make this your go-to shop! Thanks again Akash!
Love love love Caliva! Came in about a month ago specifically for a new vape pen. Ben and Jarred helped me out tremendously. I told them my concerns about an old pen I had and Ben let me see all the options they had. Jarred was standing next to Ben and showed me the new Moxie pens and explained why he likes his and sealed the deal for me. These two were really helpful, nice, and informative.I have not been disappointed with this pen. game changer for real! Thank you Caliva for always providing quality products.
Always a happy experience! Jill Demara gave me a transaction with a smile like always. Love the staff!
Caliva is so great on so many levels, and one particular aspect that stands out is not only the wonderful products, but also the great service. I have been a returning customer for the past several years and I've seen the company grow into what it is today. Two names I will give a shout out to are Vincente and Brian! You both are wonderful employees that the company should be greatful to have because I'm always greatful when you drop of my goodies haha I recently had an issue where a cartridge was faulty, and Cameron helped to replace this faulty cart with a new one. So thankful for their service and I will continue to be shopping with y'all.
My husband and I have frequented this place over a dozen times in this last month. OK, so, I don't have much street cred in this area, but I have had a fractured and displaced rib this past month. Yeah, it hurts to live, breathe, or move. This place saved me!! I'd leave a 5 star for professionalism, quality, and knowledge. They seem to have a better & more discrete selection of CBD & THC products than other dispensaries, and their staff is quite accommodating to troubleshooting. I do understand that some dispensaries show more "love" when measuring your order, but I believe that the pre-measured quantities have been both superior product, and fair for the prices. Overall, I find them to be trustworthy, professional, and their products and recommendations have been spot on.
Came in here couple days ago and Jarred was quick to help me out. I did not have to wait in line longer than a minute . Friendly and attentive, I was in and out and satisfied with my purchase! Definitely coming back again.
This is my go to dispensary in San Jose. The budtenders (their name not mine) are always super helpful and knowledgeable. They are also patient and are willing to answer my endless questions. I especially appreciate Tory and Breanna from our 6/23/2019 visit. They were both amazing with my super nervous husband. They answered his questions and listened to his stories and made suggestions for products that would give him a better experience. I really appreciate the time they spent with us.
Whats up with this wait?? Med men is a much better experience! Whats up with this wait?? Med men is a much better experience! Whats up with this wait?? Med men is a much better experience!
Always have a great experience when I come here. Shoutout to Yousef for being kind and professional!
Wait.... the card machine has been "broken" for a very long time. Ummmmmm....... But don't worry they have an ATM that charges you 2.5$. So, If they get 200 customers a day that is 500$ a day ( easy money) in a month 15$K. This is not a nice way to take the customers money who drives all the way especially to your store. Only 2 starts because this is BS since you have no sign that says cash only or we will take 2.5$ off ur order since the card machines are broken. Fix your machine dude, it has been "broken" for a long time,
My girl Fatima knew exactly what I needed. The sign in process was a lil long but it was worth it. I felt like a kid in a candy store.
I have always loved coming here but Breanna J has been my favorite consultant so far. She hooked me up with a vape and wax that I love. She's a gem I love her!
Always easy ordering & delivery! Julie is such a great delivery person- very cheerful. Recommend
TLDR: modern, clean, reward sysyem, nice and knowledgeable staff, wide range of products.A week or so ago, I visited Caliva for the first time after an excellent recommendation from my friend. As soon as I stepped in, I could understand why everyone kept referring me here. The environment is clean, modern, and most of all, welcoming. They even have a point-based reward system every time you check in!! Thomas helped us at the bud counter. He was very professional, kind, and knew the products well. We were relatively new to vaping, so we had a lot of questions for Thomas. He was very patient throughout the process, and gave honest recommendations. The vapes he recommended were bomb af glory hallelujah. Thank you, caliva!
Great under 45min delivery during 5pm Monday peak time and both times my delivery driver was Gabe. Gabe's been professional, polite and easy to deal with on both occasions. Thanks Gabe!
First time here and it was great. Check in took about 2 minutes, possibly even less. After checking in your information on the tablet you then present your ID to the receptionist. Very simple process. After going inside the club I noticed how nice the layout is. Tori helped me find exactly what I needed. I wanted something a bit more on the sweet side so I ended up with the moxie strawberry lemonade:) Thank you again Tori for your great advice!
Caliva is great. From the product to the customer service, everything is 5 stars. A big thank you to Karley for always going above and beyond with her customer service. Very knowledgeable about the product and makes great recommendations. Thanks againUpdate: Paula Anne is spectacular! I've been helped by her a handful of times since my original review. She remembers me by name and what my personal preferences are. Always a great day when my bud tender is Paula Anne. All around still an amazing establishment.
Priding themselves on a good state of energy and quality.They got this babbling brook fountain that reminds me of when I get massages so you could only imagine how soothing and relaxing this place is. They have great security. Trust me I've talked to these guys they're great to talk to and still very professional.Its a very nice atmosphere, great overhead music playing.The workers are very welcoming, you get a freebie if its your first time here too.Everyone here has good attitudes, vibes, and personalities.They really seem to know there stuff too. Everything here smells soo good too.They also have really good edibles, the chocolate is great.Hey the outside should catch your attention by how great it look just imagine how great is looks on the inside , heeey come on in.parking is really good here too. Please try to enter in the proper way tho.
Unfriendly, unhelpful, and expensive. Reception is rude and impatient. They answer questions with curt yes or no and do not offer any additional information on their processes, including what they do with your information. They seem to despise their customers for wasting their time and have no interest in being a part of the social or chemical education surrounding marijuana use or legislation.When I come in to drop a couple hundred dollars with your business, I expect a little more than eye rolling from a aloof and distracted employees who would clearly rather be elsewhere. You may have a corner on the market now, but customer service will eventually be a factor in the success of your business, and as of now, you are doing a very poor job of it. Strive to be professional.
I've never been to a dispensary before, but a friend of mine mentioned Caliva and had nothing but great things to say about it. It was a very pleasurable and easy experience! A security guard checks your ID before you enter, and the individuals at the front desk in the waiting room check your ID again before letting you into the BudRoom. Both of them asked if it was my first time, and told me what I needed to do once I was inside. The budtender, Chris, helped me out and patiently answered every single question I had regarding both medical use for joint pain as well as recreational use. She was extremely helpful and detailed, and since I'm new to dispensaries, she made me feel very comfortable to ask even the silliest questions! Caliva is very clean and super aesthetic, the website is easy to use and they also can deliver to you. I will definitely be back!
As a rookie, I don't have much to compare, but here's the five stars and why I'll be back.1. Everyone was incredibly helpful and made the visit easy, educational and fun. Specifically, Regyna and Rachel, were great, knew their stuff and made some great recommendations.2. They grew their own, so I really liked the ownership of the product and traceability and shopping local. (Kind of why I like farmers markets).
I went to this dispensary hoping to try out new products. I was helped by Brian who was super enthusiastic and informative when it came to the all the different selections available. I'll definitely be coming back!
This is my daughters favorite place to come I make her go to the thrift store and this is where she likes to come so it's always a great mother and daughter outing and they are very knowledgeable there and help you with everything and all the employees are super nice
This place is extremely chill!! Really loved the vibe in there! Especially with Yousef helping me out. He really knows his stuff!! Thanks again guys!!
Amazing find! Thank you so much Jenn for your help at the counter! It was our first time here so of course we had a lot of questions. Jenn was quick and thorough and we are super happy with our purchases!
I was very disappointed to find out that their prices listed on the internet or not really their prices - I went there based on their prices only to find out - You need to add an additional 39%, making them substantially more expensive than my usual club.They are calling it the tax rate but it does not add up. Will not be returning!!
In town from out of state, found this place on yelp. Just go here, go here. Not anywhere else but here. Why? Because the people who work here, like Karley, are so kind and educated. It's an incredible experience!
Budtender Joseph and women at the front desk really are knowledgeable about what you want, what you got before and how to get results for you! Paytender is their convenient atm that does not eat your tip$yall be on a 'diet' - visit this location, do not spend anymore than 10 a day to make it habit healthy ... and there isn't much to wait in line regarding weed or parking or security clearance. It's in high spirit dealt from Caliva smart employees that so many POTHEADS benefit on running errands like this
Jarod was amazing at helping us find what we were looking for and very friendly. It's great to have so little wait time and yet not feel rushed at all when it was our turn. Would highly recommend.
I was so intimated to go in since I'm new, however literally every single person I encountered here was genuinely kind. They answered all my questions no matter how silly with patience and made lots of recommendations without pressure to buy. The prices were still cheaper than other places nearby and the products I bought have all been great. Honestly, if you've been thinking about trying cbd or something more intense for anxiety or depression but you're nervous about visiting a dispensary, just give this place a try. Thanks everyone there for being so helpful!!
Christine at the express pick up register is AWESOME!!!! She is extremely sweet, very helpful and informative. I always have an amazing experience when Christine helps me out. This kind of customer service is why I am a repeat customer at Caliva because of staff members like Christine that make you feel welcome and happy to be there.
Loved the whole process. So organized and helpful. Some amazing babes up in that place! great selection and service!
I stopped coming here for about almost a year & recently went back. (No particular reason)I'm glad I made that choice. The bud tender who helped me out, Felix was great. He took his time to tell me about some strains and answered all my questions.Being so patient with me and helping me decide on what type of flower to get is the reason while I'll definitely not let another year or years pass by.
Hands down my favorite dispensary because of their amazing staff. The folks up front? Personable and cool. The folks behind the counter? Incredibly knowledgeable, helpful, and patient. The delivery drivers? Incredible. Diane's delivered to me at least three times now and 1) always informs me of upcoming promotions, 2) gives me the low-down on new products, 3) communicates on her way over and is always a pleasure to speak with. Looking forward to my next order and friendly delivery from Diane!
Not for me. If you want a dispensary that focuses on their brand and look, this place is for you. They've got all the bells and whistles locked down on their look and maybe that's why they had the audacity to charge over $45 for a vape cartridge? All that branding doesn't come cheap! I've been here twice now--the first time a year ago and I was hesitant to come back then due to the steep prices. My last trip sealed their fate in my book; I had a positive check in experience and then paid over $95 for two vape cartridges--both of them halfs...I can go down the street to a couple of dispensaries and get a full gram for $60 tax included. What's up with that Caliva? I'd be less disappointed if the quality were there...but it simply isn't. This place is a joke and definitely the self-proclaimed "best dispensary" in the Bay Area. Use your money to invest in better product lines and not on a flashy exterior. It's not all about looks, guys! Head down the block to Natural Herbal, White Fire, Harborside, Haze or even Airfield by the airport...literally any other place but this one. You'll get more bang for you buck, that's for sure!
had the best experience! tati c. had the best recommendations and i will definitely be back.
Went in for the first time yesterday with my aunt, and she had a ton of questions. Kasen was able to answer all of her questions, even the weird ones and was able to give excellent recommendations. Customer service throughout the entire store was excellent. Will be visiting yall again soon!
Store is always clean and well organized and staff is friendly and helpful. Went in for sleep gummies and unfortunately they were out of stock but a super helpful consultant, Rebecca, spent time introducing me to a tincture remedy that has worked great. Rebecca answered all my questions and went over in detail how to best use the product. I appreciated the time she spent making sure I was getting what I wanted and would know how to use it.
Came here for the first time today and was very impressed by Sanju and his customer service. Being new I was asking a lot of questions and wanted to look at a couple different things and he was so patient and knowledgeable.
Customer service is top notch. Delivery service is off the hook! Hell even when I ordered last minute they came thru fast! Product is quality also. My new main stop for online ordering. you get a better pricewhen you order delivery thru their web page than with eaze!
Kat helped my friend and I out on my first visit to a dispensary. It was a great atmosphere and welcoming environment the second I stepped inside. Everyone is super helpful and 10/10 would come back again.
Today during my visit I was served by Leo, who did an awesome job helping me find exactly what I wanted. Leo was very polite and friendly and gave me great honest feedback on the products I was curious about. I walked out feeling content with my purchase. He suggested a great choice for my new Gio pen with a Caliva Day Dream cartridge. I'm very pleased with my purchase and appreciate your time and absolute professionalism Leo. Look forward to coming back in and receiving such great customer service!
Great experience as always in Caliva! Been a patient for many years, first time review. Today had exceptional customer service from Karley W.! She was super knowledgeable and helped me find the right products for my needs. She knew about brand stories, different extraction processes, and the science behind why this is going to help me for my specific needs. I was sold, thanks Karley!
Customer service is always great! The employees seem to love their job and it shows. I usually come here for their selection of edibles and sometimes get concentrates also. Really good selection and fair prices here.
Jarred is AWESOME! He has the best customer service at Caliva, and all team members are outstanding!!! It's because of Jarred that Caliva has stole my business from Harborside!!!
Always have such a nice time. If I'm in a hurry, I order online so I can run in and grab it without waiting in line. It is ready within minutes of me ordering! When I go in, there is always a new thing to learn. The wellness consultants are knowledgeable and excited about their products! I never feel judged based on knowledge or budget. Cassie and John are exceptional. As is the manager with beautiful red hair and glasses! I forget her name, but I love to go in and chat about different products with her. All of them make me feel so excited about the products I am getting and I never leave disappointed!
Shout out to Paula for being the best bud tender ever! She was so patient, sweet and helpful, going over all Caliva's different options when they didn't have what i initially came in for.I ended up going with a particular vape, and was a solid recommendation.
Bree provided such amazing customer service. She was knowledgeable about the products and made it easy for me to decide. I got in and out within 5 mins.
Diane is absolutely amazing, she delivered my order all the way out in Cupertino and her orange Subaru was extremely easy to find. Amazing service and quick delivery time! Highly recommend!
Fast service and the employees are always so friendly and helpful! Shoutout to Jonathon for being informative and friendly, and helped me find I what I was looking for quickly.
Go see Jenn--she'll hook you up. Wait time was so little and their selection is *chefkiss* awesome. Friendly and great advice all around. 10/10, totally recommend
It was our first time ordering from Caliva. We are impressed.Diane was our delivery person. She is the bomb. We love that we can track our delivery and know exactly when it would arrive. We are so happy to be able to have a delivery to Morgan Hill. So smooth!Caliva is now our go to dispensary. By the way, the product we chose is very good. We are happy campers! Our weekend is rocking! Thanks
Ordered for delivery and all I can say I was blown away! Delivery driver, Omar, came with a smile and was real pleasant to talk to. Ordering online couldn't have been easier! Thank you Omar!
Come here often, service is always good! Was serviced by Kasen James today and it was the best experience I have had so far. He was very helpful & knowledgeable about the products he was talking about. I went in looking for edibles and he gave me alot of good feedback about some of the products. I just tried the gummies I bought & it was exactly what I wanted! Great flavor! Also got some chocolate I can't wait to try. Will definitely be back when he is working.
I just got home from my first visit at Caliva and let me just say...WOW.This club is amazing. The building is huge and decorated so professionally which really made me feel like this place knew what they were doing. The staff was so helpful, knowing it was my first visit, they explained everything to me. The prices were affordable and the medicine is tasty and potent! Rachel was my bud tender and she was extremely professional, approachable, kind, and knowledgeable regarding every strain I asked about. THANK YOU RACHEL! :) Overall you guys, if youre looking for a great club to hit with awesome buds and good deals, Caliva is the spot! Dont even hesitate.
THIS REVIEW IS FOR ADULTS ONLYVery Clean and ModernLots of display cases of various related products.Great welcoming staff...professional and comforting (newbie)Very knowledgeable and patient B-Tender.... Found strains that definitely help my health. Google Blackjack, Viper Cookies and GSC....all in the 25-30 % range...Indicas and Hybrids Edibles? Yup a very wide selection...I got Sugar Cookies and a Milk Chocolate bar...both containing 10 servings of 10 mg dosage. Decent priceSenior discount of 20%...This is my second dispensary visit...the other was in SacTown and not even close to Caliva in total experience.HINT: Go Tues and with a purchase of 45 bucks or so..they buy you two tacos and a soda pop....I will return,
Thomas at Caliva was so helpful that I have to call him out. He was so knowledgeable of the product and gave great recommendations all of which he was able to speak to from experience so it gave me confidence in buying. This place is always friendly, inviting, clean and trendy with the latest products. I recommend that my friends come here and it has become my regular go to place.
Quality stuff. Quality service! Plain and simple. Especially from Katerina! It's really the only place I go to get marijuana products.
Love Caliva! Chad rocca was amazing, too! Very friendly, down to earth bud tender who took his time explaining everything and gave some awesome recommendations too. Didn't make me feel rushed or like he didn't have the time of day. I honestly appreciate honest reviews from the bud tenders and I will be returning here very soon!
Michael D thanks dude thanks for the knowledge! Hope to see you again! If I could choose my driver this is my guy lol!!!
Angel (delivery driver) was awesome!! Superior customer service!! Friendly, and just positive vibes. The state taxes are not something am happy about but being available to get my products delivered makes it a bit worth it. Will for sure use this service again.
Shout out to Alina who helped me over the online chat! She was very helpful and patient with me. Will buy from here again!
This was our first visit to Caliva, Karley was our budtender and she was so patient and knowledgeable. I had many questions and reservations regarding the edibles, all were answered, and my confidence was was restored as to the efficacy of their products. Thanks Karley!
Blake P. Helped me during my first visit and he was awesome!! Explained everything and helped me find exactly what i needed. Definitely will go back.
Andrew K. Was awesome! Recommended me a strand that was fire! Also was professional and extremely dope to work with!
Solid experience as always- Marduk took great care of me Come here if you need the good stuff and don't want to spend a lot
There's a reason these guys are #1. Fantastic product selection (you can see everything on their site online) and great customer service.
Thomas was really knowledgeable about the promotions and different kinds of cartridges. Not everyone is well versed on brand styles and knowing compatibility between vape pens. The whole store was also really clean and inviting! I also love that they accept debit and aren't cash only.
Superb Professionalism was my experience on my 1st visit just yesterday ( 4/14/2016).Extremely clean....Extremely Spacious....Extremely Kind ...Extremely Knowledgeable ...Extravagant selections of Medicine at prices expected for the " reserved " ones .It was an upscale experience that should be expected and was my experience.I found the ELITE COLLECTIVE 4ME !Signed by a Misleaded Purple Flower
Had a really great experience here the other night. Not only is the store and atmosphere really inviting, but my best friend and I were helped by an associate named Bre who was absolutely delightful. They had answers to every question we asked and made the shopping experience even more fun. Thanks, Bre! You're awesome.
Went to get my gummies cause they were on the 12th days of Christmas sale. I'm a newbie with the cannabis stuff and even though it was my 2nd time here I still had questions. Thomas (I think that was his name - East Asian), super nice guy and took his time explaining things. He didn't make me feel intimidated. I really appreciated that!
The check in process for new clients was super easy and quick. We felt no pressure to buy anything (although we did)...we loved the freedom of walking around this beautiful place and looking and touching the product. When we were ready a super friendly gentleman helped us with our questions and as new customers we felt heard and we didn't feel like we were being annoying (we felt rushed at another club). We really loved at Caliva that our Budtender was the expert and made suggestions and offered feedback instead of expecting that we should know what to get. We walked out of there faithful customers of Caliva & knowledgeable of what we should buy and what we shouldn't based of issues that we are facing.
This is one of my go-to spots in the downtown area. The vibe is cool, they always have a great selection to choose from, and the sales associates are quite knowledgeable. Jill D. Assisted me with my purchase today and she was knowledgeable, helpful and gave great recommendations.
Came in for the first time with visitors from Ireland. Tori was fantastic to deal with and very patient with us as we browsed the amazing selection. I'll definitely make this my go to spot from now on... Thanks Tori!
Went there for the first time on my 21st birthday and staff were so friendly! Got a bday discount too hehe. Very nice looking inside/very aesthetically pleasing/organized
I've worked at Caliva on the eaze team since late January 2019. It's always a breath of fresh air when I arrive. It's like the problems in my day all expire when I arrive to work. Great co-workers, management and facility. I also like how they embrace tech and utilize it to make the experience for customer and employee very smooth. Also our products are expertly produced and packaged.
Always love ordering from and visiting Caliva! Connor was our driver last night and he was timely, courteous and professional! Will be ordering again soon!
This is a great dispensary, the employees (ESPECIALLY Lisa) did a great job of making me feel welcomed even on this busiest of days. It was such a fun experience and cool place to go. And even though the wait was a little over 20 minutes, being 4/20 I was actually fine with it. Also, they had a magician and a ton of free swag which surely helped! Long story short: come to this spot
Great environment and love the feng shui! The weed is top quality and worth paying the extra tax. My gf and I were assisted by a wellness consultant named Sanju Manjunath. This guy really know his stuff and is very welcoming! He truly deserves a raise!
Thank you for the good customer service & advice Marduk! Ready to get Chinese Eyes for 4th of July
I gave this collective 2 stars due to the cleanliness of the inferior. I'm a huge Leafly contributor so when I discovered that there was a #1 collective in my hometown I was excited to check it out! This is how it went:1. You park, walk up to the security guard that checks for valid Rec & ID2. Walk through the front door, but first you have to fight the disgusting swarm of flies blocking your path. 3. Walk to the receptionist who is fairly nice but lazy as f. She didn't get up from her seat once and all I saw were her eyes and nose from where she was seated. 4. She checks you in and says "you're good to go" But doesn't tell me where to walk, where to go. (Mind you I am a 1st time patient) 5. I walk in to a clean looking facility, and there were 3 budtenders present, I was "served" by a woman with no eagerness whatsoever to help me or answer ANY of my questions. She stood there blankly looking at me. Never have I been to a collective where the if you were a first time patient they didn't give you a brief overview of their meds. 5. I asked to see a few of the best flowers they had to offer, she pointed to the connoisseur shelf and said in a smart tone, "well it's gonna be the connoisseur shelf" as if I was supposed to know that! Ok we'll, if she would have properly gave me a introduction as a FTP then I would have known. But no such care was provided as standard as that is! 6. Annoyed as she looked, she brought out like 5 strains, just put them right in front of me with no explanation, no comments, I wasn't sure if I was allowed to touch them, or feel them. So if she didn't tell me anything I just went for it. I touched the bud. The DRY ASS sample that were so dry the crystals were no longer evident! And she said, "uh can u not?" And handed me a pair of tongs, again with NO reasoning. So I asked her, what can I do with these tongs. Can I squeeze the bud with them?? Can I take the bud out??? Seriously, I felt like i was doing her job for her!! She brought out a few indica, sativa, and hybrid. The samples had no name under the jar, the lid was the only identifiable way to differentiate the strains. The indica smelled like a straight up sativa. So I'm about 100% sure the samples got mixed around previously. Anyway, they do not provide any FTP deal or ftp freebies, but they do offer a free joint for your 2nd visit. Referrals receive a free gram, but the FTP doesn't... strange! Their grams range from $10 (low shelf) up to $20+ Their top shelf is $16/g (seemed like a mid shelf to me, the nose was gone, the appearance was disappointing to say the least! Their selection is rather limited. They sell Caliva gear. Won't be back!
Went there for the first time today, was rather nervous. Despite being really packed and busy, Kasen was very sweet and super helpful. He recommended to me several quality products without feeling like he was force selling expensive things down my throat. Will definitely come again!
Love this place! Had my items delivered by Gabe J super nice guy, made sure I had everything I ordered. Will definitely shop here more often. Thanks Gabe J!!
Been here a few times already, and always have a great experience. The products themselves might be a bit pricier than in other places, but the customer service and quality is top notch. They also often have solid deals. Special thanks to Toki, she's now my favorite budtender. Very helpful and friendly, with really interesting tattoos. Will definitely keep coming back.
This was my 2nd time at Caliva. Place is super clean and professional. Blake Peckham was the person helping me out and I have to say, his customer service was off the hook. I couldn't have been happier with my experience. Will be coming here for all my cannabis needs moving forward.
Caliva is one of the best spots I have been too. Alina is awesome please ask for her.
Gabe he was helpful like three months ago and Bre J. Was great today!
WE MET JAY-Z!!!!Just kidding but it was still a fun, organized and knowledgeable experience. Lots of variety and a super bunch of workers. Very helpful! And also it's fun seeing the crowd of people in dispensaries. There's always a couple people that look like if you saw them on the street the last place they'd be going is to a dispensary but there they are! Lmao
I'm a Caliva customer Today I met Regyna for the first timeShe had a good feeling, a smile and a familiarity that was mostly accompanied by good energy and funThank you Regyna10 stars
The customer service here is beyond satisfactory. Today, Breanna informed me of many great suggestions on the menu with the most positive attitude every customer should receive. She helped me to decide on purchasing a half ounce of tree which left me walking out happy as can be. Another great experience thanks to the awesome menu and remarkable customer service from Breanna. Thank you Caliva!
I used their delivery service for the first time and it was excellent. They did a great job of updating me on the driver's location. The driver was very friendly and polite. They now take debit cards for delivery. My 3 star rating is about their product. I purchased a Caliva branded vape cartridge (pillow talk) and it was awful. It had a dreadful, musty taste. The taste is so off putting, that I find it unusable. Very disappointing.Update 12/16/18 Same woman contacted me again, but between stage IV cancer and still working full time, I was not able to get back to her. Happy she made the effort.Today, I had a delivery issue, which is partially my fault. Having ordered twice from Caliva and paid with a debit card, I assumed I would be able to do so today. Went on line, ordered, noted that site still said debit cards could not be used to tip the driver, so I thought everything would go as smoothly as the first two deliveries. The driver arrived (after 2 1/2 hours) and told me no debit cards! Since they had been accepting debit cards for delivery, and then stopped, I think that should have been made VERY obvious during the ordering process. If you accept a certain form of payment, and then stop accepting it, it should be noted in a clear and transparent manner. Very disappointing.* Update- A woman (manager?) from Caliva contacted me and offered to help me find something more to my taste. I explained that it was not a matter of taste or personal preference, rather that the cartridge tasted musty, as in old and bad. I am an experienced user (7 not so fun years with metastatic cancer) and this was not a taste anyone would prefer! No response from Caliva.
I made an order online to be picked up curbside. I live in Fremont so I headed out right after placing my order thinking by the time I got there it would be ready. So I drove about 35 mins to get there just to receive a text letting me know that my order was ready and to REMIND me that they would not be able to serve me if I had anyone under the age of 21 with me. Umm you can't be reminded of something you're hearing for the first time!! I had my 2 young kids with me that's why i ordered curbside! It didn't occur to me and I would totally understand if i would have known before I placed my order and made the drive!!!! So then I tried to call them to see if I could at least get it delivered but there was no way to contact an actual person so by this point I'm really annoyed. I called the number online and then I called the number that texted me, first time went to voicemail second time they just hung up because it only rang twice before going to voicemail. Texted the number and told them about my problem and they responded saying, "it's in the conformation text". So I went back to my emails to re-read the 2 emails I had received from them and no where in either email nor on the website when I was placing my order does it say that! When I told them that, they just stopped replying all together. Couldn't even be bothered with an apology.
This place is the best I've been too. Rebecca O. Helped me this visit and was very helpful! Customer service like this keeps people coming back!
Jared at Caliva was patient, polite and very helpful! Caliva itself was in an off-the-beaten-path location but well worth the visit. Very clean, lots of product options & an overall great vibe. I'd go back for sure!
Caliva was beautiful! My budtender Andrè was super helpful, and seemed very excited to give me recommendations. 10/10 would recommend Caliva
This is the first time I visit this dispensary and it was so smooth. The place is clean, welcoming and everyone there is very helpful. Bre J. Was way awesome, she took the time to explain to me in detail all the products I inquired about. I will definitely go back, since her recommendations did exactly what she explained would do. Will definitely try some different stuff next time I stop by.
Thanks Caliva, I love the ice cream! I placed an order today on 4/19 and received Ben and Jerry's Half Baked ice cream as their 4/20 special! Thank you for the consistency in your Caliva product and for the ice cream and lastly for the amazing customer service!
Yesterday was my first time ever at dispensary, I am so glad I came here. I have skin issues and was told that cannabis oils can help. From the moment I walked in I felt so comfortable, I didn't know what to expect. The woman who took care of me (I didn't get her name but she is African American and was AWESOME)......I didn't know anything about what I should try but she helped me pick out a few things that should help with my Psoriasis.....This was some of the best customer service I have had in years.....Thank you so much for making me feel welcomed (I was a tad nervous going by myself for the first time)......I pray that the two products will help and if does....."I WILL BE BACK".......Happy New Year
Ask for Tori Cox. She was awesome, super very friendly, knowledgeable,understood and explain everything about the products what my girlfriend and I was looking to buy. I have trouble sleeping and Tori suggested a product. Works excellent. Tori gave us some goodies to come back. Very good experience and we will go back again. Price were about the same.
Love this place--very well organized & great selection. John C.was a great bud tender. Very knowledgeable & helpful. Thank you!!
The only place i go for my flowers! Bri helped me last time i was there and she was such a sweetheart. Love the vibes whenever i come here. I always recommended this place :)
Very nice placeKudos to Andres. Excellent customer service!I will come back here again. Lots of choices for a good price
Top shelf customer service. Special Thanks to Andrea and Jennifer for their patience and kindness.
Placed an order for delivery today for the first time. The driver was onetime and very pleasant as well as profesional. The 2 8ths I bought were of excellent quality buds! I'm impressed and will use them again!
This was the first dispensary I visited, immediately after getting my medical card, and damn was it the right choice of dispensary! This place is both classy and affordable, with an enormous selection of edibles, oils, smokable products, things to smoke said products in, and more.They have an awesome reward system, too - they give you tokens with your purchases that you can exchange for freebies the next time you make a purchase. The attendants know their stuff, too, so if you have any questions, they'll have answers.Bonus: they grow their own product in a gigantic, Costco-sized warehouse attached to the store, so everything is local.All in all: excellent experience, excellent prices, excellent perks, excellent staff. Excellent all around!
Stefano was a fantastic and friendly budtender and i appreciated his recommendations on which edibles to get. This is my favorite dispensary in San Jose
I just wanted to let every one know that caliva is one of the best places I been to from cleanliness of the facility to very personable staff that works there I worked with Bre J. She was amazing at knowing what strains good and what effect they will have I highly recommend doing to here at your next stop at caliva
First time, I suffer from anxiety and insomnia and refuse to use anxiety meds so I went to check out alternatives. My consultant was a very kind, experienced and patient person who went over my different types of options for my issues. He never once rushed me nor did he get frustrated with a newbie like myself. His name is Yousef Shahin, I totally recommend you speak to him when visiting this establishment. I give him excellent customer service rating of 5 stars!!
I've been to Caliva quite a few times, Paula An was my bud tender and I have to say she really spoke to me. I didn't know what I liked tbh I just get anything sativa bc it "doesn't put you to sleep" She sure educated me lol .. and is the biggest reason why I keep coming. Everyone at Caliva is friendly as well, they've got great stuff!
My go to USED TO BE Airfield and Eaze constantly but a friend told me about Caliva. EVERY experience I've had with delivery staff/chat has been so delightful. They are always so upbeat and positive. I love the chat board, they get to you within minutes. I recently received a cartridge that had leaked and I contacted them right away and they were on it and gracious while fixing the problem and did even more then I expected. HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Thank you Caliva team
Ive been coming to this place for some time.Lisa is great, knowledgeable, welcoming, and with great personality.Thank you for the great service, cool environment and selection of products!A+++++
Rachel is the best person that Caliva has .The staff there is great, better than the other dispensary's I have been to .Rachel is pleasant , always smiling, makes you feel comfortable being in there .
If you order from Caliva, you're guaranteed a few things: great customer service and some hella good weed. Today Diane delivered my product and she's awesome - great customer service, cool delivery car. She's got some good tips about paytender too. Big FYI - paytender is a super easy way to pay for your flower. Will re-order next week!
Where do I even begin. From the layout, to the employees. It's an amazing experience to say nonetheless. I was showed Caliva by one of my best friends who I work with. And me being new to SJ, I told her I wanted to find a new dispensary for me to go and feel welcome. We'll, this is sure the place. Every-time I go in there all so kind to me and my girl. But one that stands out is PAULA. She is such an amazing spirit. She has helped us out every time we have gone, and she had never disappoints. Always has something we want, or even something new to try. Shoutout to our girl! And to everyone who works there, thank you for making my experience so worth it. I WILL be going back. I recommend a 100 times again and again.
This place used to be nice, until it was legalized. Its gotten awful since they signed a contract with the Jay Z. It's all grimy now. Both in store and their delivery drivers are getting robbed. They cant handle the volume now, they're completely unprepared and unorganized. There is no reason to stand in line for an hour when theres 10 other clubs in a 5 mile radius. Keep in mind that this is a corporate owned dispensary. Big business has never kept the patient in mind, it's all about profit. They have sneaky ways to rip you off. Selling wet weed (that weighs much more) and advertising it as fresh "Deli Weed". They sell prerolled packs that were so loose, half the weed would fall out when the package opened. They pack them now but added $3 to the cost of that product. Even the clerk admitted that they were taking advantage of customers with that one. Stay away from their prerolls altogether, or you're cheating yourself. They have the employee turnaround of McDonalds. They used to have budtenders who were passionate and knowledgeable about the business, now it's just stoned teenagers. Youre better off going to a collective, support small business! Shop around and you'll find a better price for the same product.
I normally go to this place because its the closest location, and the staff and medicine are very nice. This time I went and got an 8th of Slyme, got home, and was bummed out to see only 2 nugs in the plastic container. The bigger of the two had a massive stem that weighed a gram by its self. Not worth 50$.
This review is for Chelsea. I come here all the time and is my go to dispensary. But the reason is the people. I came in one night to get something I usually always get but they ran out. I kind of had a small melt down. But Chelsea was super cool and treated me the same even though I had a little of an attitude. In the end she help me pick an alternative and life is back on track. This would be one of the main reasons why I would come back, especially to Chelsea. Thanks Chelsea.
Jarred Doss is one of the best guy to see in there. He's attentive and he knows his products. I've been there many times and it's so happens that he's always the one taking care of me. I'm so glad that he's working there and always so friendly and kind. Thank you jarred. I will come to see u when I return.
I love Caliva and their products and prices are the best, but the best part is home delivery by their wonderful drivers , like Gabe J, who quickly deliver my ordered products
Decent selection, huge location. Tax is insane but I guess that's how it goes nowadays
Dany was knowledgeable about each product and explained exactly how they'd effect the user. She was super sweet and I had a great time speaking with her. Thanks, Dany! I'll be back soon.
Jared J. made my first experience informative, easy and fun! I got a bliss holiday pack + other goodies :) I'm definitely coming back to Caliva and I hope I get him as my wellness consultant again. Thanks Jared!
This is a great establishment, great quality flower. And my favorite bud tender is Chad. Super chill, really friendly and gives awesome recommendations and a couple of facts too. I HIGHLY recommend him.(Everyone is great here really)
Thomas was really knowledgeable about their inventory and taught me some new things. Thanks again!
Best dispensary I've ever been to; clean, friendly/knowledgeable staff, tons of products from medicine to apparel, organized, and always an easy in an out experience! I would and do highly recommend Caliva to everyone, they are in a complete different echelon when it comes to the rest of the dispensaries in the Bay Area!!
I love the vibe at Caliva! Second time visiting and I had a great experience working with T and Paula. They were both very friendly and super knowledgeable with their recommendations!
My time at this dispensary has always been great. the staff has always been helpful with selection upon inventory as well as keeping me informed with upcoming deals. The atmosphere of caliva is second to none. Who could forget taco Tuesday such a wonderful event. Thank you Mrs Paula for keeping me company at the taco truck. I'm honored to be an ambassador for such a great dispensary thank you for being number one Caliva
I don't know what the big deal is about this place. Limited options, most things sold out, very high prices.
thanks a lot to Mardook (sorry if i misspell) for doing his BEST in helping me with my issue. I came in as a first time buyer to Caliva yesterday to purchase some items & one of the things that i bought was their Caliva vape buttonless pens(battery). Unfortunately, the battery given to me seems to be defective (i wasnt getting any hits at all even when ive already tried to charge it beforehand) so I came back today to exchange it. I got there & the salesperson had just told me that the caliva battery doesnt work well with the brand cartridge that was sold in the store. So i asked what would be the best option for me because apparently, the cartridge that was sold to me only works with pens with higher power(with buttons). Mardook came & i talked to him of i could return the item but he said that there's a "no refund" policy even with non-THC items. Got a little disappointed with that because i was left with no other options. It doesn't make sense to get a new caliva battery if they dont even work with the cartridge. Worse, i cant even get my money back at all. Mardook literally did his best in helping me by trying to give me a used battery (the one they use at the store). I guess that's better than having to waste my money. He might've noticed that I was unsatisfied with the solution (bec. who would want to get a used battery for the original amount that you paid for). So he offered another solution that could make it fair for my part. I thought i was about to leave this place with a very bad first impression but Mardook came in to save the day! (yay!) Will probably still come back if all the workers are just as helpful as Mardook. I would give five star but the no refund policy for non-THC items kind of doesn't make sense & first salesperson i talked to gave me an attitude.
The best dispenser in CA,I love the high quality of the medicine and the wonderful costumer service + helpfully bud tender,I'll coming back soon!!
I always like going to Caliva! Shoutout to T for taking care of the kid and getting me the right product! Highly recommend going to see T for anything!
This was my first visit to Caliva & I was extremely nervous about going there. When I was greeted by Brianna, she was so helpful...she walked me through the whole check in process. She then found an excellent Wellness Consultant...Daniel Douglass who was so kind & patient with me. He suggested several products for my pain explaining what each would do to relieve the pain. My visit to Caliva was a good one.
I absolutely love this place and its my usual Go-To place when I need to re-up my meds. The last time I came I was cutting it pretty close to closing with about 10 minutes to spare but as soon as I came in, Kristen greeted me immediately and checked me in right away! I've been there so much she recognizes me and greets me by name! YOURE AWESOME KRISTEN!! MUCH LOVE!! As I went into their shop I went to the online order area as I already placed it beforehand, and there was Rachel and Nick waiting to help me out both with lively attitudes and fantastic smiles!! YOU GUYS ROCK!! DONT STOP BEING AMAZING!! Even for it being the end of the night with the shop about to close, the staff was fantastic and always give me a wonderful experience making me leave with a smile!!
Great customer service! I was helped by Carley, she was very knowledgeable on the questions I had. Although I had an issue with my card not working in the atm she was patient with me.
Man, oh man. Caliva is great. Im a regular here and They have the best selection on flower,edibles, and cartridges. Im a indica smoker and the best cartridge they got is Berry White aside from gorilla glue. Pretty bummed that they were out of Berry white because its one of my fave. There would be times where im in the mood for sativa. And the blue dream is awesome. Everyone is nice, the receptionist always give a warm welcome, they have great deals , budtenders know their stuff and can answer to all of your questions, this place is CASH ONLY, but they have an atm inside. My budtender was helpful and did a few recommendations. I believe he told me he was new. Too bad i didnt get his name or else i would've given him kudos in this review. I hope Caliva stays forever !!
It was my first time ever visiting a dispensary- and boy did I choose well. Blue Dream on site is what got me in the door. Easy to see from the road, plenty of parking, IDed at the door by a security guard, and then you want to keep your ID handy as you got into the waiting room for the attendant there. I had signed up the night before online, but clear signs point to where you want to get started if it's your first time. Check in was seamless. I didn't realize it was cash only, so had to get charged to use their ATM inside and not knowing how taxes would effect the final price - I didn't get enough for my purchase plan (I was close!!). But super friendly service was received - I had a plan, but I'm sure they are super helpful if you aren't sure what you want! I was in and out in no more than 10minutes and really high quality product. Their packaging is really smart, and the entire environment is not only beautiful, but set up to function very efficiently. Great experience I would recommend anyone to!
HORRIBLE!!! I just moved back to San Jose and was excited to find this dispensary by my house. I spent over $100 and went for curbside pick up. For some reason HYPUR wasn't working. Your associate then told me to come inside of the store and use the ATM and he would give me a five dollar credit off the order to offset the ATM charges since I have no idea why wasn't working. Once I got in the store the associates accuse me of lying and refused to bring me the person I spoke to on the phone. I had three different associates lying and covering up for him. Then the manager came and also lied and said he had no idea who I spoke to three minutes before. I have proof of all of these phone calls. I also called back and spoke to the person who offered me the discount and pretended like he didn't even know who I was. They accuse me of lying in front of numerous people that were waiting in line. I also told him that I picked up yesterday and spoke to the same guy and he told me I was lying. How can I be lying when I have proof and you guys have proof? What is going on? I'm so upset right now. I've been in management for over 10 years and I've never ever dealt with something like this. If they had just said I'm sorry I wasn't authorized to give you a five dollar discount I would've said OK and walked away. But they are blatantly accusing me of lying and rolling their eyes at me. Is this supposed to be professional service? I was planning to make this my store and spent all my money here but I guess not anymore. I thought this was a professional shop?! Not one adult could take responsibility. Nobody in their right mind is going to do all of this for a five dollar discount when they are spending over $100. I don't know what type of criminals you guys deal but treating your customers like criminals it's not the way to go.
I came here to purchase medical grade CBD I was not disappointed. They have a nice selection of drops, tinctures, vapes wth CBD at different ratios. I just purchased Care by Design -18:1,4:1,2:1,1:1 I love the 4:1 and 1:1 the best I feel like this is definitely helping me feel less ADHD and focus more. I'm also hearing my higher self with a lot more clarity which has been awesome! The staff was absolutely professional, friendly, and answered all my questions with so much patience. Can't wait to check out more items and go back. I paid $40 and got for oils!! Awesome deal.
Caliva is the best. Awesome customer service and my delivery driver, Diane, was the nicest!! Super helpful people.
I am really new to the world of recreational marijuana and I wanted to try it out for my grandmother who has arthritis. I didn't have time to go into the store yesterday so I just made a phone call. Lisa picked up the phone and was super helpful and attentive to all my questions! I loved how thorough she explained how CBD works and she even recommended me some product to try. Thanks, Lisa for being so patient with all my basic questions and answering them meticulously! Definitely going to try the products she suggested.
Shout Out to Gabe J. - great customer service during delivery. Thanks again for helping me out!
Great place to get the deals and staff is super nice and helpful. I was help out by Thomas and Christina and they were great and helpful. 5 stars!
Don't bother with their online shit. Placed an order didn't hear shit back for 30 min. Called and was told it would be a 2 1/2 hour wait. What's the fucken point of delivery if it's gonna take that long ya nincompoops? If you don't have the staff to handle your online orders then don't fucken offer online orders. They got like maybe two chill bud tenders. Everyone else are those yuppy polesmoking smug assholes who tell you the same three facts about cannabis they tell everyone they meet. "Well sativa will make you happy and like indica will make you sleepy and like oh edibles..those are pretty cool" their flower is always dry AF and the only thing they really got going is a decent supply of oils. That's about it. These the kinda dudes that would sell 20-30$ grams back in the day.
I just want to thank Murphy for helping me out so efficiently and getting me the best products I could ask for. This dispensary has a varied selection. Murphy was personable, knowledgable and great to work with. Thank you, Caliva and Murphy for making it all so easy.
I've been coming here for a while and they have never disappointed. Always greeted by friendly staff and the inside is nice and clean. Pricing is pretty fair plus there is always some sort of special sale going on. I was helped by THOMAS today who was very knowledgeable and patient with all of our questions about specific strains higher on the CBD content to treat pain and inflammation. He recommended some products and we are HIGHly satisfied with his suggestions. Definitely our choice shop in the bay area.
Staff is really friendly and professional. I was helped out by Lisa take care of me fast and had a great smile and knew her flower well. Thanks Caliva and staff for s great product n experience.
Free gram Friday's. Amazing buds, great budtender(hesitant to put his name on blast so I will refrain). Cannatonic smells like straight up dried mango, I can't wait to taste it. Krypto-berry smells just like blue berry. The shop it's self is very very nice and pleasant. Some how they manage to not have the place smell like cannabis, which to me is a major plus, because when you go to whiff a specific strain, you won't have any other scent killing your nose. They also have coffee beans too(for you to smell of course between each strain).The location is alright, and they make no qualms about letting everyone within a mile know that it's clearly a cannabis dispensary(giant green cross, caliva written in huge letters with green leafs at the end of it). One thing I dislike about the location (but not enough to deduct a star) is that it's on the corner of the street that gets quite busy, so literally everyone and their mom is staring right at you. I wouldn't say that makes me "uncomfortable" because I don't care what other people are missing out on. I just don't want the wrong crowd to know I just walked out with a large order. Safety, I guess would be my excuse.I would consider Caliva to be one of San jose's big league boys. The other being airfield supply. Meaning they are slightly more...."classy".They are the upscale lounge to the dive bars that sprinkle SJ.Airfield Vs. Caliva? Only time will tell, they are really only in competition with one another, even though haze is a decent place, they aren't even in contention(hence the term "big league").The prices are amazing. 71 bucks for half oz of cannatonic is spectacular, and the buds are very vibrant and sticky. So like I said, time will tell which one is the better dispensary, but after frequenting airfield very often, and my initial visit to caliva, I'm sorry, but Caliva gets the nod from me. The no migraine inducing cannabis smell through the shop, the prices and quality, everything is top notch here, and the guys/girls are far,far more interested in helping you out. Even the front counter lady smiles and makes some conversation. So customer service is top notch as well.Your move Airfield, the ball is on your side and I'm standing in calivas half of the court.
This place is pretty awesome, it's got a good vibe and the staff is extremely helpful. Rebecca helped me out, and even had great recommendations. 10/10 best dispensary I've been to in the south bay.
Highest recommendation! Clean, professional, and easy to navigate website, huge selection with all my favorite brands, and fast, free delivery from a very friendly driver. A great experience all around, the best on the peninsula by far.
Caliva is the best. Plain and simple. I'm always finding new and amazing things here! No clue why anyone would go anywhere else. Sure, they get busy (duh) but if you use their online ordering, you can just walk right in and and they have your stuff already put aside for you! The "budtenders" or employees are all very helpful. I picked up an online order today and was greeted by some very friendly faces. I was helped by Christina R. and she was great! She was very helpful and fun to interact with. They do a great job hiring associates! Oh and the whole place is put together so well. I love going in there. Like I said, no clue why you would go anywhere else.
Incredibly quality and staff. Definitely coming back. After testing a variety of different store fronts, Caliva's quality blows the rest out of the water.
My boy Marduk always coming through with that quality service and helping lead me in the direction of what product suits me for the day. Thank you as always and I'll see you soon.My only complaint is that Caliva has a poor selection in some categories.
This place is really good, great environment and vibes, one of the budtenders name Paula was really helpful and patient. If any of you get her, ur in luck in finding really great things !
We can only give feedback on Caliva's product and delivery. Diane H was great! She got to our place even sooner than originally expected. Her orange car made her very easy to spot. The product itself was also great. We're definitely happy with our experience and will be bringing our business back.
Caliva's gone down quite a bit it quality customer service and real selection. Their staff no longer seems knowledgeable about the product, or whether or not it's even available. The last half a dozen times I've gone in, I've been given incorrect information, given the wrong product, or been told that what I was asking for was unavailable (even though it was on the menu listed as such). It's sad because Caliva used to be my go to place, but I think I'll stick to somewhere else from now on.
Caliva is a nice dispensary. It's located in a sort of industrial district but there is nearby highway access. Easy and ample parking and it feels safe, in the daytime at least. It's not the kind of area where a lot of people are going to be casually walking around. I've always found the front staff friendly and efficient. They have a nice, clean bathroom in the lobby. The interior is pleasant and modern. The bud-room itself is spacious.I've also had good experience with their budtenders, helpful and understanding of my medical marijuana needs. I've spoken with other budtenders who have been more informative at other dispensaries, but Caliva's strike a nice balance. They often have vendor days and special events. They don't take credit cards but do have an ATM on-site. Their selection of flower is not the most extensive I've seen in the Bay Area, but I always suggest checking the menu before you make the trip.The vibe is slightly hip without being over-the-top. As an older (and up-hip) customer, I feel comfortable there, even if everyone is twenty-five or so. I feel like they would be patient explaining stuff to you, if you needed it explained.The prices aren't the lowest, but still, if you are buying top-shelf flower in California, there's not THAT much money to be saved from one place to the next. For example, a quarter-ounce of Blue Dream ranges right now in the area from $45-$96, and Caliva's comes in at $55. Sometimes I do run across big stems but that's nothing I haven't seen at other dispensaries.
I love how clean and welcoming this place is!! My budrista, Paula, is the cherry on top! I get great recommendations and chill vibes from her! I come here for medical oils for pain and my hubby comes for buds. We both love our products :) happy puffing!
The price on the screen was $36. My receipt says $45+ tax. $50 for a half gram. No full gram carts even available here's. I should have walked but instead fell for the old bait and switch. Oldest trick in the book. They gave me a $5 coupon for my next visit for being a first time customer. Other places have given me weed or an immediate discount. This place basically gave me nothing since I won't be coming back. Within miles there's better places. Just be transparent and honest about the price and getting ripped off wouldn't sting so badly.I added two stars for the quality of their product. Eel River Organics Citrus Sap. Very nice. Not feeling that sting at all now.
this place is phenomenal and so well organized. incredible selection of EVERYTHING marijuana related. thank you folks!
I love coming here. Their staff are so friendly, helpful, and always make sure you get exactly what you're looking for. They welcome any questions you may have and make suggestions for what would be best for you. The place is always clean and organized with great options and points every time you check in!
THOMAS helped me yesterday, extremely professional and very helpful, appreciated his recommendations and took them into consideration thanks again I'll Definitely be visiting again
Another awesome visit to Caliva, 5-stars for sure. I'm a newbie and I'm still trying to figure out how to medicate myself correctly - but went to Caliva today because I was pretty sure I was doing it wrong. My lovely budtender Laura was super patient with me. She didn't laugh at any of my dumb questions, instead patiently answering all of them and offering additional info that I needed (but didn't know I was missing.) I never felt like she was trying to hurry me along, even though there were several people in line behind me. She explained the pros and cons of several different types of products, and gave me some ideas for things I could try in the future. She also gave me a tutorial on how to use my new vape pen and cartridge, which was very helpful and made the whole process less intimidating.I get nervous about going into dispensaries and about using cannabis. (How can you not when you've been brought up under the "War On Drugs" regime?) But I feel very comfortable at Caliva. They're just really chill and welcoming. It's obvious that they care about their customers because good service like this basically ensures that I'll be back. I'm no expert, but I think their prices are good and somehow I always seem to walk out of there with a freebie or a discount on something.Thanks guys. A+ experience, will definitely be back.
Nice friendly environment and workers, great selection at every price range. Shout out to Yousef for being super helpful and kind.
I love this place, fast and easy and helpful to answer all your questions without feeling silly to ask lol shout out to Marevie T your Awsome! Thanks for all your help girrrrll
Honestly, This place is worth going to buy pain medication bcus you tell the budtenders what you need & they give you the best & right quality..
Brought in one of our friends for his first time and Thomas took great care of him! He let us know about their weekly deals, showed us the variety of flower, and had some great recommendations for edibles. We walked out of Caliva with edibles, flower, and extra vape cartridges. Definitely recommend coming here!
This place always has the best selection. And if they don't have what your looking for the consultants are always helpful. Jared D. is one of my favorite and is extremely helpful and knowledgeable.
Thomas was really helpful in explaining their different products. Will definitely come back.
This place is pretty awesome, first time I came here, I was greeted with pure love. The atmosphere and budroom is pretty refreshing as it's pretty chill and no stress on there. I remember my first pick up I realized they have "WaskaHempMilk" in stock and thing was I was looking for it!! Super sweet because I usually use it to spike my "HotChocolates!" In the end this place is legit if you wanna stopBy and pick up something worthy. have a great one yaull!
Caliva is awesome! It was my first time ever going to a dispensary and idk if I could ask for more. This place is super awesome as soon as you walk in. The front desk crew is super nice and then you get sent through another door where an employee personally helps you figure out what it is you want. Kat was super cool and was very patient with my girlfriend and myself who didn't really know what we wanted. Kat was so helpful and very knowledgeable. Will definitely recommend and return to this dispensary.
This was my first trip to any dispensary, and I'm so thankful I chose Caliva. The budtender Manny was so patient, knowledgeable and totally understood all my needs. This place is clean, bright and the prices are reasonable. It's definitely worth the trip.
I've never been to a dispensary before. I rarely smoke and if I do my friends are usually the one who help me. I decided to start using cannabis to treat my chronic urticaria (hives) and chronic pain due to juvenile arthritis.Since it's my first time going to a dispensary with little knowledge about cannabis, I felt nervous and embarrassed.Before you enter, there's a security to check your I.D., the security asked if it was my first time, I told him it was and he was so friendly and helpful and told me what to do. Same with the front desk who would check your I.D. again and who would put your name in the system. I've been here couple of times and so far both securities and front desk were super friendly and welcoming.I've seen both budtenders Jomari (I'm not sure how it's spelled) and Misty and they made my experience great especially being someone who barely know anything about cannabis! They made me feel comfortable asking newbie questions. Staff are friendly, helpful, and welcoming. The store feels very chill and clean! They also have a live chat online that I've used. They answered pretty fast and was accommodating as well.Would definitely keep coming back.
Dude this place is so cool and professional. I went there to ask for advice since it's my first time doing weed , and omg the people there were so helpful and not judgements at all. You should definitely try this place if you are a first timer.
Very easy to use website for ordering. Product was high quality and service was very friendly. Michael D specifically was fantastic and very helpful when I called with questions.
Friendly staff, but not as professional. Feels a bit worn down, but new and in progress, so go you small businesses. But I'd have to support Elemental Wellness Center. Mid shelf wasn't that great. Okay prices, but not fantastic weed. Not clean weed either, was gunky. They have a free 4/20 gram for receipt, but is honestly am passing. Great deal though!
Everyone here is super wonderful! The property is well kept and clean, there's a ton of product to chose from and and and major shout out to the amazing Budtenders Go Caliva!
Came in for the first time today (4/20/18), and boy it was busy. The line was quite long, which is to be expected given the day, and everything was moving smoothly. I made it to the bud tender (I think that's what they're called?? Not sure haha), his name was Thomas. He was helpful and knowledgeable and made the process smooth and efficient. He answered the questions I had about the products quickly and concisely and in general facilitated a pleasant experience. Will be returning in the future, thanks!
Caliva is the bomb.com. I had such an amazing experience. When I pulled up to their big facility I was greeted by their security outside the door. He was friendly and verified my rec and ID. I like the build structure and their big sign, their location is not hard to find at all. Once I walked into Caliva, I was greeted by the front desk associate. She was sweet and the check-in process was super quick and smooth. As I was filling out my paperwork (first time patient) I was looking around and checking out their amazing decor. The facility was very clean and has a very coastal and organic vibe to it. Very cute place and most important, clean. The product rooms is very spacious and well designed. I was greeted by an awesome Budtender named Harrison, who I highly recommend. He has excellent customer service and is very knowledgable about his products, I ended up purchasing some RG Slymer GH. I have to say it is very smooth, I'm a Sativa lover so I lean more towards those strains. But very Euphoric,earthy with a citrus taste. Caliva also offers some nice edible choices, The cheddar popcorn seemed like something I will try. I plan to pick up some on my next visit. Overall I highly recommend this place and their products, I believe everything was fairly priced. I highly recommend Harrison if you need further information about products and need some guidance on finding the best products for your needs. I like the vision Caliva has and I think they executed it properly. I really love what they stand for as well. This will be my go-to place for all my needs. Thanks Caliva for the great experience. I will see you guys soon.
Elva helped us with our choices and helped me select exactly what I want. It's a really nice place with really nice decorations. I went on a Monday and there was no line or wait.
Caliva is my go to! Every time I go there the employees are really helpful and nice. Today I got assistance by a lovely women named Paula Ann. She has the sweetest and softest voice I've ever heard! She made small talk with me and gave me a discount on my next visit. She called me babe and sweetie which made me laugh and smile. It's people like her that make this place top notch. The bud is the bonus part!
Great delivery service from Emiliano! On time, found my place and was very friendly!
Quick delivery came sooner than expected! Joe brought my package to me and was great. Thanks joe!
I stopped by to purchase an oil cartridge and Dani was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. Her customer service was on point! And she's on the company's billboard on Curtner & Monterey! What? That's amazing! Staff at this dispensary is top notch!
I love Caliva! It's my go to place, awesome products at a great price. Daniel helped me out today and he's really nice and knowledgeable on cannabis. Claire is awesome, everyone is awesome and friendly! I highly recommend going to Caliva!!
Very clean, very upscale and was helped by Karley she was extremely knowledgeable, very helpful and super respectful. Will definitely return.
Always nice to drop into Caliva, really cool atmosphere. Recommend anyone to come for really good products. The Raw Garden never fail, with good prices on the grams. The bud tenders are really helpful; Andrew really helped me out insuring that I was getting the best products. Will be back again for sure.
Love this delivery place. The only thing is that their ATM is not working for delivery . Very frustrating. Debbie the delivery driver is awesome. Six stars for her.
This is the first dispensary I've ever been to, and right from the beginning they made me feel so welcomed. Facility is awesome! Love their look. My friend and I walked in, and Thomas helped us. He asked what we were looking for, and was knowledgeable and friendly when I would ask him questions. This is probably going to be my go to dispensary now.
When I first got here, I was greeted by a couple of really welcoming girls and they made my registration experience so easy! Then I went inside and Christina helped me find everything I needed! She was running all over grabbing everything I was asking for and she never made me feel like a burden, more people need to be like her! The place was clean, the employees were Incredible and I accidentally came on taco Tuesday and got two free tacos and a drink! I would recommend this place again and it just became my go to club!!!!! Thanks guys!
Good delivery today. The time was about an hour. Omar Vivas was nice and efficient. Humboldt farms are my favorite.
Caliva is always good to me. This time Karley was able to take care of me with excellent service and fantastic advice on flower!
I moved into this area a year ago. I tried several dispensaries with walk in purchases and delivery. Caliva always has the best selection, prices and friendliest staff! The delivery is always amazing and super fast. I "highly" recommend!
Went here for the first time after my friends praised this dispensary to me, but honestly other than the staff this dispensary was AWFUL. It's all completely overpriced for mediocre herb, they overcharge the sales tax at the end to try and trick you into paying more (I got a $6 sales tax added on just for buying a cheap gram lol what a joke) and they never even gave me a first time gift like I dont know.....every other dispensary on the planet does. Needless to say, I was super disppointed with this place after being overcharged and not receiving a gift for my first time. Definitely never coming back.
Want to give a shout out to Jared Jaenke great customer service understood exactly what I needed, and made it work with my budget..
Christina R, I believe was her name. Very knowledgeable about her product and was helpful throughout my experience. Thank you
Just a great place. Friendly and willing to educate you. Make sure you bring your ID and keep it out when you go in.
Caliva came recommended by a friend, absolutely top notch! Staff was friendly and very helpful and knowledgeable regarding products. Jarred took great care of me. I'll defiantly return for a visit.
I have now been here a few times, they have great selection and good prices. The bud tenders are friendly especially Paula who'll patiently listen to ur need and recommend you the right strain accordingly as well as being really sweet. I'd recommend this place to anyone who wants good strains for decent prices
Absolutely beautiful. The staff is very friendly however I feel not all of them are trained to the same standard ??! I could be wrong but on different occasions I'll come in and get excellent advice then sometimes they simply tell me I don't know.... Not gonna name people in specific cause they've never been rude. I'm a little sad about the flower selection although it smells and looks great I feel the potency is not there. Concentrates I've had issues with it not being the sameConsistency as their displays but the manager swapped it out with no issues for that I'm thankful. I think caliva with the atmosphere it provides can potentially be a great dispensary. It all goes with trial and error. I look forward to seeing what the future holds for them.
Sanju and Tory are always super helpful and kind. I know when they are assisting me I will always walk out with the best quality stuff. I love everyone that work there.
Best shop in SJ. Great service, huge selection, and awesome staff. Yousef Marduk was a very welcoming budtender. Overall, looking forward to coming back.
The bald asian bud tender is not very good, I felt rushed and they seemed to be unhappy with lots of questions, he just wanted me to buy and get out.It's a nice store, it's big inside, I was the only one I. There, and still felt rushed, very poor customer service.
We love Caliva. The products are of very high quality--ah, pun also intended. Fatima is one of the tenders there and has helped us make good selections on several occasions. She is friendly and really cares about the customers she serves. Thank you.
Shout out to Andrew K. for being an awesome budtender! He gave us good recommendations and was super helpful with helping us choose prerolls.
This place is amazing. The best way to describe walking into Caliva would be to imagine you're entering a Med Spa. - Outside looks incredibly professional an clean. - Security guard is the man and always chats with patients. - Waiting room in unlike any dispensary I've seen.- Staff are very helpful and personable. - The bud-tending area is very large and has a fantastic selection of products.- High-end chocolate bars, flowers, extracts and more. This place is very professional and yet very welcoming. We need more businesses like Caliva in the medical marijuana industry. GO THERE!
Top notch products with the best service! Akashi Patel was the most outstanding budtender thus far. He had such positive energy and even though there was a line I didn't feel rushed and he's answered all questions!
Great Experience Like Always, this time I ordered online and was helped quickly and Michael gave great Customer Service Thankx!
Customer service is great! Super fast, professional, and patient. They know their stuff. I'll be coming back more often.
So today I gave caliva another opportunity and Rachel the manager did a poor job handling my situation. I will not be back again. I recommend you go to Purple Lotus or Haze dispensary they treat you with respect. These two dispensaries have Real Deals if you want the deals I suggest you go to these two dispensaries.
Went here from a friends recommendation and am super glad I did! Very clean and well organized establishment and love the products. Jenn helped us out and she was very patient with all of the questions we had! Awesome place, definitely looking forward to coming back!
It was my first time here and I met Danielle N. at the counter. Her ability to quickly and effectively find exactly what I wanted was what I think all Cannabis clinics need. I was a bit nervous at my first SJ dispensary (I had only ever been to Santa Cruz as a younger that 21 med patient) and she made me feel right at home! I love Caliva now, and I hope to get Danielle as my cashier more than just this first time :D
Caliva is awesome! All the staff are super welcoming and I'm always in and out in a jiff. They offer a huge rang of high quality products. Also, if you haven't been on their website then go! If you're not sure what you're looking to buy they have their entire inventory online. The staff is also well informed about the products they hold and do a great job at taking care of you as a client and not just another person. Once I had bought a vape cartridge that wasn't functional so the next day I went in and explained my situation and was out within 5 minutes with a replacement! Caliva is top notch!
Great flowers but decent to highly priced. There one of the only places were I can find oPen products so props to them for that. Very professional, almost too professional, there strict with the rules, like only one visit per day even when they fucked up and forgot to give me a battery for my pen. I consider it a pro though, sometimes clubs can get loud and uncomfortable, thats not the case here. Its a comfortable atmosphere. Good edibles, a variety of wax, and good bargain budds. Flowers are awesome, you wont find any bottom shelf, even on the bottom shelf. And their top shelf is superior quality.
Have been pleased with Caliva products, or course, but especially their service. Alina has helped me a couple of times and she is much appreciated.
My budtender, Chelsea, helped make my mom's first dispensary visit a chill and relaxing one. Great spot!
So, Breanna Jernagin was super helpful. Great suggestions, great product. I always come back, but Caliva needs to start letting their staff accept tips. Especially since Jay Z invested in this West Coast product. Take care of us.
I live in San Leandro and have traveled to San Jose to Caliva to get my drops that I couldn't get around here. Caliva is an awesome place, they for sure will have what you need!!! They also give a 20% discount for seniors and everywhere else only gives 10% so this is our go to place!
Thomas was extremely helpful during my first visit at caliva. He aswered all my questions insightfully. Thank you again Thomas and caliva aswell. Will definitely be back
Tori was great, she helped me pick out a couple vape cartridges and was overall very friendly and knowledgeable. Place is clean and everyone is chill, pretty much like you'd expect.
This was my first time at a dispensary. I was so overwhelmed by the amount of options that were available. I felt intimidated because I had no idea what to get. I went to the counter and Kasen was super helpful. I asked him for recommendations on what kind of edibles to get. He also explained really well what the difference between indica, sativa, and hybrid is. My friends and I were at the counter for a while and he was extremely patient with us in answering all the questions we had. I ended up purchasing some edibles as well as a vape pen. They give a cute zip lock baggie to put your purchase in.
Very welcoming atmosphere and a great dispensary for first time shoppers! Karley was awesome and was super easy to talk to.
I went in for the first time to Caliva and was helped by Thomas, who was clearly knowledgeable about all the products. He gave me a great recommendation and I'll definitely be back whenever I'm in the area. The whole staff is kind and welcoming which is also a plus!
I would like to appreciate great costumer services of Miranda. She has a great attitude and has an outstanding ability to sell and grow the business. She has a big smile on face which shows the genuine willingness to assist and help the client. No doubt she is a gemstone of caliva.
Every time I come here the bud tenders are very friendly and understand space for the customer to look before asking if we need help. Personally I'm the type of guy to know what I want going in, but like to browse to see if other goodies catch my eye. My last bud tender was Jarred D who's very very helpful and smart. The staff makes a very fun welcoming environment & answers all your questions each time. Keep smiling
My husband and I have been going to Caliva for some time now. We have always had great experiences. Unfortunately, I went to make a purchase today and tried to use a 40% discount card I was given for a previous purchase. It clearly stated that it was to be used for "Special Menu" items. If you go the the website, there is a Specials tab. I was told I could NOT use the card for these items but could only use it for the "Treats" listed items, which is a list they keep on a clipboard at the counter. I feel this was dishonest as the discount card made no mention of a treats list.
Thomas is a great person and tender! Love walking in and getting expert advice, a great deal and exactly what I needed. Thank you!!
Had a great experience at Caliva today. Steve, one of the managers, was very helpful and knowledgeable about their products. Wait time was very short. The customer service was most impressive. Our wellness consultant, Jared Doss, was amazingly helpful and friendly.
Love the vibe in this place! Has more of a peaceful feel than most others. The staff is always smiling, pleasant to speak to and happy to help. Elba was my tender today and she is just fabulous! I was being so indecisive and kept changing my mind. She was very attentive to my requests and handled is all with a smile. A very pleasant experience. Thank you Elba, hope to have you as my bud tender again!
Absolutely awesome! Felix completely understood what I was looking for and his recommendations were perfect! Very friendly , helpful staff, top of the line shopping. Thank you for a great experience! Looking forward to returning!
Calvia is such a awesome. So welcoming and friendly. Elba was beyond amazing she recommend the best for me!!!! Thanks i will be back!!!
I am a loyal customer, I spend a lot of my money here. I have many experiences with a few good budtenders. But I also have my fair share of disrespectful and extremely rude unprofessional budtenders. I think they are unaware that this is a money making business not the corner street fish market. (Even then the fish market is a business) You cannot act how you want, and be rude.If you don't want to serve me, then don't. Because this not once but twice this individual was highly rude pretending to be nice. Do you understand we are trading a lot of money for a service? Or do you not care because you are a douche? Either way this is ur job get it right or you won't have a job because nobody wants to deal with ridiculous douche bags that pretends to be nice and thinks he is cool when he is just ridiculously appallingly and hard to bare with. I was medicated and I still felt like I came to a disgusting club due to one individuals behavior. This shouldn't be the case especially in the cannibus clubs where medication, relaxation and happiness is promoted. I understand Jay-Z is part of Caliva now, and he is a business man. If he can get this message and understand what is really going on then hopefully things can change.Second time I had to deal with this rude individual. He was not helpful and was horrific to deal with.This will be the last time I purchase anything from this place again until they do something about the employee. Not all of them are bad, some are great. But for one or two individuals repeatedly acting unprofessionally rude not once, but twice, that ruins it for the rest of the team that is actually nice and professional, that is highly sad. Due to the few horrific attitude bearing individuals who don't even own the place and have to act highly rude as if they don't want to work there and they are the boss, yawning, giving attitude, not handing over the smell jars making smirky comments. I think the employee needs to be reprimanded or another job. Until caliva changes, I think its best I spend my hard earned money else where.
Jenn my Bud Tender was Fantastic. I travel a lot and go to multiple dispensaries in different cities and towns acting like I have no clue when I go in. Caliva is now #1 for my top rated dispensaries. The treatment and service I received from all of the staff members that I came in touch with were A+. Jenn was extremely knowledgeable in the MULTIPLE flowers and tinctures I asked about.... she had great customer service and didn't rush me. Which was a big score for Caliva into how much I purchased. Throughly enjoying my products, peace everywhere....
Andrea helped out greatly and was very patient with me. I asked a lot of questions and Andrea answered them very professionally.
I'm a big fan of Caliva. My girlfriend loves their Cannabis bubble bath, made in collaboration with Whoopi Goldberg. I just purchased an ounce of their Cherry OG, now one of my top shelf favorites -- so delicious, tasty and pure goodness. Great for pain, relaxing and truly provides an uplifting healing experience. Best part is I don't have the munchies with Cherry OG which is a plus since I'm trying to stay in shape. Caliva seems to focus on providing high quality medical cannabis without pesticides and unnatural chemicals. I feel I can notice a difference in their flowers compared to other dispensaries. I base that on the lack of hangover the next day and the smooth smoking. As a result, they are my go-to best dispensary in San Jose. Other reviews about bad service with security, I never experienced that all. Everyone was super nice and friendly. Thanks Caliva.
Been here a couple of times and wasn't blown away or disappointed. Today, however, had a crappy day and decided to stop by. Torry made me aware of the 20% military/vet discount while providing professional and courteous service. Had a couple laughs before finishing our transaction and ensured I would continue being a loyal customer. Thanks to all the staff
First time ordering. And my experience was awesome. I forgot my delivery guys name but he too was great nice and friendly . I will be offering again. Good Job Caliva
Excellent customer service from Karley today. Came in because I was given a container of Dog Walkers that, upon opening, did not contain any pre-rolled joints! There was some kind of glitch in the computer system so my sales history at Caliva was missing but they took care of the problem. Great ending after a frustrating day at work.
The product quality is always great. Tori was my tender, super sweet person and very helpful with all the right answers to my questions.
I had such a great experience at Caliva! My first time visiting, I was greeted by all the bud tenders as soon as i walked in. I came in to pick up some edibles and I was helped by Akash. Such a great and informative guy! He was super helpful and gave great suggestions. He really went above and beyond with his service. He was so patient while I decided which products I wanted to try out. I was really happy with my purchase thanks to Akash!
Jonathan was extremly helpful with my purchase today! I love coming to Caliva & I recommend the patches for anyone who suffers from daily pain like i do. All the employees love my service dog too!
Andrew always gives excellent customer service & the depth of his knowledge helps tremendously with my purchases!
Tori is awesome, really knowledgeable about products, and has great customer service! Best Place EVER!
BEAUTIFUL store inside and out, super friendly and knowledgeable staff. Very patient and eager to help explain things to me when I needed it. The girl who helped me I think her name was Mari, something like that! She was really sweet!
placed an order on the caliva site and within the hour, Michael the driver arrived promptly. He was super accommodating and and polite as hell. 10/10 A+ do not hesitate to order.
Second time ordering really nice flower with caliva and I was not disappointed!! My delivery driver Omar got here fast quick, even during traffic hours. He was really chill and friendly! Will definitely being ordering from caliva again!
I had such a great experience with Caliva. Alina the receptionist was so friendly and helpful and the product was amazing. I will definitely be back!
Love this place, people are friendly, place is very clean, classy! Ive been to a few other locations and they dont meet have requirements of customer service. Great job Caliva.
Super friendly and knowledgeable staff! It's a great place for those who have never been to a dispensary before, and the budtenders will be more than happy to help you choose from one of their many strains available!
Special shout out to Paula Anne Tyler who helped me today! Wow! She was so great! I wanted to tip her! She was so friendly and super helpful!One thing I noticed... why don't your tenders have chairs?? Are they standing their entire shift?? That has got to be hard on the body. Get some tall high back chairs for your peeps! I felt bad watching all of them subtly swaying back and forth - they deserve it! Those peeps are working hard! Bravo
So happy with my delivery and Diane in the orange Subaru. She is on-time, communicates and is absolutely fabulous. I wish every driver was like her. I wanted to give her a tip. Unfortunately, debit card thingie wasn't working. In any case, wonderful service and a fabulous company. So I had to say something...
Beautiful aesthetic, friendly staff and amazing selection. Leo is also super helpful. Love the Dosist selection and the Taco Tuesday specials!!! Go. You won't be disappointed!
Paula was the best bud tender I've ever had, and I've been going to Northern CA dispensaries for over a decade. She was very knowledgeable about the supply and really helped me figure out the deals Caliva had at the time (it was their four year anniversary or "birthday"). I ended up getting some stellar cannabis for a very reasonable price and I wouldn't have if it wasn't for Paula! I'm very thankful Paula's there and plan to return to hopefully visit with Paula again as she is a very reliable source of Caliva information. Thank you, Paula! Keep rocking, you're doing a fantastic job.
Such a friendly staff great customer service and their selection is top of the line everything is clean and there's plenty of room and lots of information on the tv screen. The very friendly and will answer any of your questions I've gone to a few and this by far is my favorite and I also feel safe
Caliva as always is great their bud tenders are very helpful and make good recommendations that i've never been disappointed with. Yesterday i was helped by Paula and was exceptionally impressed by her she was the truly the sweetest and really helped with finding what we needed. Caliva is different than most dispensaries because as you walk in you immediately feel the positive energy and the chill environment makes you feel at the up most comfort. (:
I have been to quite a few dispensary and so far yet this is my number one choice. 1. Clean, organized, great selections of strains and friendly service. 2. Workers are knowledgeable, this is for DANIELLE! My favorite she's super helpful and takes good care of her costumers. Definitely she recommended the best stuff for whatever you are feeling or what type of high you would desire. she knows it and gots you! Nothing I would say down about this place. Check it out yourself and I'm sure you'll get the same vibe I get going in and out. :)
This place is doing it right. They have a great selection for any type of patient/enjoyer and keep their practice looking "just like an apple store" definitely worth at least a one time visit. The best part is the service, have been here a few times only to receive phenomenal service and bud-education. This time I purchased from Jared who had great enthusiasm, they gotta give the guy a raise!
Amazing club, very clean and friendly, tons of options. Great employees... Thomas in particular knew everything about all strains and very informative.
This is the first dispensary I've ever been to. Both the women at the front desk who's name I didn't catch and Marduk Zara the wellness consultant were really great. The front desk checked me and and gave me a tour and briefly explained proper etiquette. Marduk was very helpful in answering my questions and helping me decide what to purchase.
Andres Torres is the man! Took great care of us, and very knowledgeable!! Thank you, will be back for sure!!
Andrew is probably the best bud tender I've ever come to meet and deal with. I've been to all of the dispensaries in San Jose and he made my experience at Caliva the best I've had so far. He was helpful he was informative, he was able to talk to me like a friend rather than a customer and I like that. Especially in this industry. Andrew deserves some good praise from his superiors this guy is bringing you guys business. I'm even coming back when I go to San Jose again.
This is a beautiful business. Very friendly, welcoming, and educational staff. Prepare beforehand and get cash out so you can save on the $3.50 ATM fee and also prepare for the insane tax per transaction! I'd recommend coming when you aren't in a rush in case there is a little wait. But it is well worth it! As a first timer in a collective, I totally felt comfortable. I took my time chatting with an employee who was more than happy to explain products in detail. I'm more of a CBD-kind-of-gal and was thrilled to see all of the options! I'll definitely be back.
This place is amazing ! Very professional environment and very comfortable and welcoming place to visit ! Budtender TORI is the best ! She is Extremely knowledgeable about all of the products this place has to offer . Highly recommended
The best dispensary in the Bay Area. Harrison was my budtender, he was very friendly, helpful and professional. The best customer service ever.
Great dispensary! Super clean and professional. Bre'anna helped my friend and I and she was great. Picked up a new cartridge she recommended and I love it! Will definitely be back soon
Save your $ for another place. Over priced and so not worth the money. I bought a lot and not happy about making that long trip for some tree and edibles that really didn't do much.
Always excellent delivery service. They are quick and efficient. The app works great. The delivery person Gabe was terrific - friendly and intelligent.
If you need a weed place this is the spot seriously they have great knowledgeable butt lol tenders like Jen who is at the top of the roster in there also Claire I am so great ful for their help with my medical problems I couldn't ask for better people
definitely a place that doesn't know how to do business with customers. if you're waiting for a delivery you should expect to be waiting all day. didn't even receive a call to set up a delivery for the next day. was told multiple times by workers that I would be receiving an email letting me know when they'd come and if not then something would be set up for the next day, but no one called. shitty service for over priced weed
Just stopped by and my experience was great as usual. Today I was helped by Tori C. and she was super helpful by: being informative, explaining deals, how things work, as well as how to properly store certain items I purchase. Thanks to her and her friendly attitude with smiles, I will most definitely continue returning to this Caliva. I will also recommend this place to friends for sure. Thank you Tori C.
Tori Cox was amazing and informed me of multiple products and made my experience one to remember, I will definitely be back!
Caliva is amazing! The entire staff is so helpful and welcoming, if you're a first timer they will make sure you feel right at home and guide you through everything you need to know. My personal favorite employee is Bre J, she is extremely helpful and so patient. She always makes sure to tell me about the best deals and she actually cares about the customer's experience rather than just trying to sell as much product as possible. Thanks Bre and thanks Caliva!
Not only was my visit yesterday my first time at Caliva but also at a dispensary period. Everyone was extremely helpful and took their time explaining how things worked. I walked in anxious but left feeling so much better. I look forward to visiting again and trying more products.
This is not some hole in the wall! This is a huge place where they produce most of their products. The show room is nice and they were very helpful for someone whom has been restricted from use by their employment for thirty years. My salesperson was very informative and friendly. Will definitely return.
This is place is great! Andres was wonderful and super helpful. This was my first time there and he had all the knowledge. Will definitely be back here again!
Awesome place, will be my go to spot now. Was helped by Bree J she was very helpful. Great customer service.
This review is for Jasmine. I was lucky to get Jasmine as i told her i was interested in something to treat Anxiety. She was knowledgeable and friendly. I'm hearing prices are high, but i had a good experience with friendly Customer Service. Very cool experience!
Love this place. Staff is friendly fast and helpful. Plus is close to home and open till 9pm. Thanks guys!! This will be my first choice always!
Today was my first time experiencing Caliva! For starters, it's probably the most beautiful dispensary you will ever walk into! I was helped by Zac, super friendly and welcoming! He answered all my questions, shared some helpful resources based on my questions, and helped me pick some drinks! (Which are delicious!!). Such a wonderful place to be and will definitely be your new favorite headquarters for all things cannabis! All class, all professional, all creativity with a modern view!
No free gift. You get a token to use next time you spend more money. My biggest gripe is that their posted prices do not include taxes. Also, their gorilla glue was close to double the price I got from the dispensary down the road. Will update review as time goes on. Update: They were out of prerolls for my token. Choices were a 'toastie' a smaller preroll with a filter. Or a CBD lotion. I passed; still have the token. They do have decent edible prices I will give them that.
This place is hands down the best dispensary around. The experience is always amazing and it all starts with the friendly staff that gets me checked in Sarah is such a sweetheart and always takes the time to greet me with a huge welcoming smile, and her knowledge about the products is superb! There is no way to be disappointed if you visit Caliva.
Really cool dispo. BIG thank you to Jarrod D for helping me find these really yummy peach gummies while I travel! Very disappointed I wasn't able to tip him! Some of Portland's dispensaries allow their employees to accept tips because they're helping to guide u to what U need for medicine. That would be my only complaint!
Misty at Caliva was so helpful and went out of her way to help me. I was having trouble with my online order but she took the time (while she was super busy) to talk to me. Thanks for all you did! I've always liked Caliva and their amazing staff like Misty is the reason why.
Great Bud tenders and flower selection! A lot of times bud tenders seem disinterested and lack knowledge in the Industry. Jared was upbeat, super helpful and engaged in his job. He gave us recommendations based on our preferences and needs. We left happy with our purchases.
I typically am one not to write bad reviews, but i feel this place can come off as a bit misleading. The building is quite large, and displayed very eloquently with a giant lit up sign and a fancy spacious lobby. Their staff did go above and beyond to make me feel welcome, i will give them that. Although, when you comes down to actually looking for something to buy, their selection is very small. Especially if you are shopping for flowers. Their selection of buds were very poor and limited. To top it all off at the end of my transaction i come to find out there was no first time gift or discount. What was the point of telling them i was a new patient then i wonder? I feel as if this dispensary focuses more on their image than anything. Honestly they had a larger selection of their own products (water bottles, shirts, ect) with their logo on it than they did of their cannabis. Sorry to say, but I've been to numerous dispensaries in San Jose & Santa Cruz, this one is definitely towards the bottom of my list.
Even though I've been here multiple times, I go to check in and because my old medical referral is expired (which I don't even need for this store) I am asked to fill out a form and get back in the line I just waited 10 minutes in after having to park a block away??! One word describes this place INCONVENIENT. It would be faster to grow my own while I wait....never going back
Love this place staff is always super friendly and knowledgeable.. specifically Danielle Noel.. super awesome employee she's so sweet and really pretty also knows her Shit about the strains keep up the good work Danielle
the employees and security guards at caliva discriminate against their own disabled patients...!!!they wanted me to park my disabled transport vehicle and crawl on my broken leg... no different than asking a patient in a wheelchair to get out of their wheelchair and crawl...i asked for "reasonable accommodations" afforded all disabled american citizens in the protected class by the americans with disabilities act signed into law by the congress and the president of the united states of america in 1990 and updated in 2013.instead they called the cops on me, revoked mh membership without violating any rules and falsely accused me of trespassing, yelling and cussing, and made me leave without my medicine, which is caliva exists...!!!
Finally a dispensary with fresh Buds! Great pricing too. Very knowledgeable staff that was willing to help. I won't be going to any other dispensary in San Jose.
Always have a fantastic experience at Caliva because of their professionalism and knowledge. Today, I happened to be helped by Paula who helped me select the best quality products at a discounted rate. She was extremely helpful and kind. Thank you Paula and Caliva! Be back soon :-)
Early bird does not get the worm. I showed up today in the early afternoon expecting to pick up medication and free tacos for purchasing on Tuesday. The taco truck was not there on time causing me to pay extra money, for lunch, by going across the street for tacos. Maybe, don't hand out free food tickets if there is no free food to claim. My food went to the respected security guard. That is, if the truck ever shows up.
Decided to look into some CBD topical cream for my back pain. This dispensary is really nice, clean and has plenty of parking. Everyone was friendly but a special thanks to Blake P. was really helpful, provided great information, and answered all my questions. Will definitely be back to see Blake again. The topical cream is working.
This review is long overdue. This spot is never crowded which Idk if thats a good thing or a bad thing. Its good for me :) Their selections is good quality, decent prices. The layout is beautiful which is big to me because if its dirty in the front imagine how they treat the flowers. The customer service is dope especially Felix and Lindsey. They don't try and push product on you or any nonsense other clubs do. My only complaint , if any, is the online selection isn't always in stock . Not sure when it gets updated but when I order and then go in for pickup its not in stock vs what the website says. Other than that my go-to
Great customer service at entrance, reception and inside the collective. Good prices and informative staff! 20% off for veterans on Memorial Day
Harrison was very helpful! He was friendly, answered my questions and made a lot of good recommendations for wax, flower, edibles, and etc. I was happy with the products he recommended and I will definitely return again!
My first visit to a dispensary ever and I was impressed with the operation. Clean, efficient, tasteful decor and a really pleasant group of people that seem genuinely interested in serving you. My bud-tender, Jared was adept at navigating the diverse choices present. He also was a very good listener and when I was done with describing the symptoms I had come seeking to alleviate, (pain and spasticity) we zeroed in on a couple of high CBD products that might work. We will give them a try. Anything to get off of, or reduce the prescriptions I have to take now...
Pros : *Fancy and appealing*Plenty of Parking*Receptionist staff is welcomingCons: (Comparing them with "Natural Herbal Pain Relief" on 10th Street)*Not a great variety of product - Very few selections to choose from. I listed down 4-5 buds that they did not have*Product Quality is not good - I have gotten better product from "Natural Herbal Pain Relief" on 10th street (2-3 min drive from this place)*The staff (at least the one I spoke with) did not have much knowledge and seems like was recommending stuff randomly*Don't take credit card (Have an ATM inside but common...)Giving 2 stars as I did get a free gram as a new patient (Again you cannot chose the free gram and just have to take whatever they give you, which was crap) but I am not sure if I will ever go back. Just have a HIGH appreciation for "Natural Herbal Pain Relief" guys now
Caliva is hands down your one stop shop! They have everything you need!!! Ask for Benjamin he is the best very knowledge and professional especially when it comes to Extracts! Stop fooling yourself going anywhere else.
Always love this place. Kristin always has a smile and greets me by name. Inside the bedroom the tenders are careful and listen attentively to my needs I always feel like I get a good deal when I go to Caliva
Kristin is amazing ! She was helpful and full of energy. She made me feel right at home and helped me sign up as a member .The atmosphere and the client interface pretty damn good ! Love this place !
Such a great club to visit. Very welcoming and knowledgeable staff. Definitely my new go-to club with their wide variety of strands.
I wanted non thc CBD and the lady in front wasn't aware if they had any. You cannot go inside without a membership.
This shop was great. Happened to be coming from Levi Stadium and drove by this place. The beauty from outside made me want to go in! It's just as beautiful inside. The teller I had very knowledgeable and was very open to my questions and talking about product. Found some new items that I love now.
This place is the Ritz Carlton of dispensaries. It's a great experience from the parking lot to the check out. Felt like a red carpet was rolled out for me! Lindsay is the best ever, she knows so much and helped me understand what I'm buying. I was not disappointed with anything I bought. If you are new here or old you must see her she is awesome!
Nice store, the budtenders asre great and they have great deals here.. It doesnt feel like a drug deal going on.bit feels like a real patient pharmacy type interaction.. one of my favorite clubs.. Its clean and the guys outside are cool and the people at the front desk are great. Thdy are helpful and nice.
I have been a medicinal patient for a while now and Caliva has always been my go to. Today was my first day visiting the club since it has been recreationally legal and I was expecting lines out the door still, so I put in an online order just to make sure. Arriving and getting into the club did not take long, there was about 15-20 minute wait to speak to a budtender if you didn't put in an online order. Luckily my budtender Joe was the online pick up area was great! He explained to me the benefits of having my medicinal card. It was also my first time trying out cbd cannadips and he was very knowledgeable about that as well. So Joe I thank you very much!
Very friendly and professional. I go for my pain due to my cancer. They do not disappoint with the amount of knowledge they supply. I'm new to this and wasn't sure if I should but I spoke to a "budmaster" online and he told me exactly what I would need. When I got there they had everything I needed and eased my anxiety with their reassurance.
Love this place. It's dope. Fair prices (taxes are a MF though). Always great customer service. I went in there earlier week, and was helped by Thomas. Cool dude and very helpful, he knew his stuff-- even though he was new. He helped a lot that night, I was very indecisive and he didn't make me feel rushed. I highly recommend Caliva and will continue come in when I need to restock.
I personally have never partaken in ingesting or partaken inhaling in any cannabis or cannabis like product. I have a medical background and have done much research in the chemistry and properties in things such as cannabis. I have a lot of family members and friends who partake in cannabis products and have been to multiple dispensaries but this is bi-far the nicest/ cleanest/ most modern/ professional dispensary I have ever been to. They have a reward system and sell the very best and variety of products I have ever seen. The staff is amazing especially ELBA!!! always ask for ELBA!!! because her knowledge of not only the products but as well as the physiological effects of the products on the human/ pet bodies( cannabis influence on dopamine levels and so forth) is very accurate. She is the only staff member of any dispensary that I have been to that completely understood and utilized this knowledge to tailor to a customers needs. She constantly went over this type of knowledge with customers. I watched her help other customers before she helped my friend and it was the greatest experience I have had in this type of establishment despite me never intaking or purchasing any cannabis product but from a customer/ professional/ medical perspective Caliva should hire more like ELBA or Promote ELBA to a position where she can not only share her knowledge and train others, but overall improve the establishment. I over heard another staff member helping others and they lacked the knowledge of the products they only stated that "I don't know" followed by " people by this one a lot though". I Highly recommend this place and highly recommend ELBA who is the cool female with hazel eyes, piercings and tattoos and skrilllex hair (half shaved head)!
I met Andres the budtender at Caliva and I highly recommend him. He is extremely knowledgeable and friendly, and treated me with respect. This is a great place and they apparently hire the best people they can find.
Caliva is the best dispensary in the whole entire Bay Area! The staff are great! JARRED helped me out last week and I must say the expertise that the staff are trained on is A+!!! Great Job JARRED! and great job CALIVA!!!
I love this place! The interior design feels like a chic hotel lobby and they have a taco truck on Tuesdays! What's not to love? Definitely my favorite dispensary!
I love this dispensary. I went in today hoping to buy a new CCELL palm battery. Unfortunately they didn't have it, but my bud tenders Thomas & Paula helped me out. Thomas let me know there's a warranty for it as long as I had my receipt & the box. I didn't have my receipt, so he went into the system, found it and reprinted it for me. They were both super helpful & nice!
5 stars across the board! 5 star facilities, knowledgeable and professional staff, top quality product and great promotions and deals. That's why they are rated the best. They are also excellent about getting you in and out, no long lines but I never feel rushed. Highly recommended!
Thank you Jared for making my first experience at a dispensary a great one. As a sufferer of chronic pain I decided to take the leap and try something different for my fibromyalgia that was not just another prescription. First off this place is beautiful to walk into. The staff from start to finish are courteous and make your feel at ease. Jared was super knowledgeable, able to answer all my questions, and offered several different options for my needs. Thank you again Jared and the rest of the staff at Calvia for a great first experience!
Went to Caliva for a pick up and everything was really prompt. Was in and out in 10 minutes. Austin the pickup counter clerk was helpful and very informative. Will definitely be back.
Stay away from this place. It used to be cool. Now, they operate under their own made up laws and not in compliance with California State cannabis laws. Beside that, the staff is blatantly racist. I have lost my California ID but I took my Work Authorization card (EAC) with me and I was not allowed in even though I have already been there before and even though they already have scan copies of my CA ID in the system. Security guard claimed to have scanned my EAC and wouldn't let me in. So I called the store because an EAC is a government issued ID. The manager, Clair was of no help and even disregarded the Law by claiming that the "security guard have the last say". She kept repeating that they are "in compliance with San Jose cannabis standards". As I got tired of dealing with her, at least 3 more clients went in with no problem at all. No big deal right, I immediately went to Haze Dispensary where they scanned my EAC card with no problem at all they let me in. This obviously has to do with the type of ID I provided. This is a clear example of denial of service based on national origin which is a discriminatory act and a violation of the law. No way I am going back and I am taking further steps.
Caliva is my favorite dispensary in all of San Jose. they have always been friendly knowledgeable and have great product. I live in east bay and still go for the ride down during their sales. Never mind the esthetic of the place, its gorgeous.
Super nice high quality place to buy your weed. Everyone is very friendly and helpful the times I have came here. The only reason it's not the only place I shop is because it's a bit out of my way compared to some of the other shops around.
You know the place where the girl from weeds at the end of the last season she opens up her weed shop, and she totally like made them super chic and like nice, this place is exactly like that! I love it so much!! The place is super superclean, the staff is super nice and I really like the owner. She's great!
The shop has a good variety of strains and great prices, I really enjoy the toasties (6 pack).
No complaints here. Just make sure your attire consists of a hoody,sweater,jacket, beanie and scarf and gloves. The place is freezing cold inside.Friendly service, great products.
Jared was cool. Helped me get in and out, hit me with a deal, and knew what he was talking about.
First time in a dispensary store and Thomas was great! He provided us edibles that were suitable to our needs! Thanks a bunch !!
I really like this place. It's clean and friendly and they have a large variety of products. I especially like the CBD sprays and while they are pricey I think they are worth it. The budtenders are always nice knowledgeable.
Caliva is the ONLY dispensary my family uses. I have never had a negative experience coming here! Every single employee cares about their customers and that makes the customer service experience incredible. Miranda frequently helps me out and she is so sweet and happy her energy really rubs off. THIS PLACE IS WONDERFUL PLZ TRY IT :)
Dani (? Not sure how to spell her name) but she was amazing! Took my friend from TX here and it was both of our first time. Dani was super friendly, knew her stuff, and kept us laughing! Didn't know dispensary's would be this dope, place is super clean, and smells amazing hah! Place is cash only, so bring ya dollas!!! Thank you Dani!
Not only does Caliva have quality flowers but they have a quality staff who is kind, courteous and knowledgeable. I enjoy walking in to a smiling face and a wide array of selections to choose from. Caliva is on point!
I had never been into a dispensary before and passed by the other day. I was pretty new to the scene and didn't really know what I wanted but I knew I wanted to try edibles. The employee that helped me was Helga or Elva? A girl with tattoos and a shaved head. She answered all my of questions and was extremely patient and explained everything to me if I needed more clarification. I left there extremely happy and informed. Exceptional customer service! Is she a manager? I got the feeling that she had been working in the industry for a while! If not she definitely needs to be! I got some really good vibes off her! I will definitely be coming back and I look forward to see what my encounter at caliva will be like with another employee. If you hired someone like Helga/Elva all of your employees must be amazing. The Edibles are amazing here some of the things they sale are things I have never ever seen at another place! They have a legit rewards and product system totally recommend this place and the girl with the shaved head !!!
Love this place. Everyone is soo nice and helpful. Nice selection as well :) looking forward to my next visit!
By far one of the most professional dispensaries in CA, dedicated to the craft of cannabis with one of the finest selections of flowers you can find. Every experience is professional with plenty of knowledge about their products. CBD is what I needed and they were able to recommended products that has been helping with my symptoms. Best dispensary out here.
To be honest, this dispensary is hands down my favorite. With being in the bay area, the medical marijuana clubs are oftentimes dirty and not welcoming, although this is not the case at Caliva. This has got to be the cleanest dispensary I have ever been to, along with the most welcoming. Kristin is by far one of my favorites and I am consistently greeted by my first name every time. This club has a great selection and although it may seem pricey, the quality is unbeatable- edibles, flower, concentrates, etc... Thank you Caliva for making me apart of the family, I definitely recommend visiting this dispensary if you are in and/or near the bay area!!!
Visited for the first time the other day. I've only had top shelf flowers since I've been smoking and this place is the worst. Pictures look good, deals look decent, but the Caliva GDP was garbage and burned my throat. Sellin old stash. Called to complain and they couldn't even do anything for me as a first time customer at their dispensary. Was looking for some relief after just having surgery. I had an unopened package and they did nothing to accommodate the inconvenience. Their pre-rolls sucked and tasted like shake. It's one thing to start off as a new business, but to come in and end up with 2 shitty ass products and not take care of your customers? Come on. They have people old enough to be my grandmother working the counter who look like they don't even belong there or know what the hell it means to have or grow good quality flower. Never coming here again.
A fine establishment. I've bounced around to different dispensaries and have found a home at Caliva. Great selection of flower and prices are reasonable. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable. The shop is clean and well kept. I highly recommend Caliva!
I love it here but the receptionists are always really rude. Bud tenders are super nice and willing to help with anything.
Very friendly, knowledge staff. I love that they know me by name, shows great customer service. They will always give good recommendations and answer all questions. Easy parking and beautiful facility. Most often you can find a great deal or special. Cash only.
Love Caliva! Danielle helped me today. She's very friendly and helpful. She had great recommendations.
Definitely the best collective I've been too...always have the best items and variety and the staff are super awesome people!! Taco Tuesday's are fun too!!
Only place I go to in the South Bay. Chill employees, decent prices, rarely wait more than a handful of minutes if even, not too shabby of a selection, and decent tips/suggestions from the counter people.
Enjoyed all my visits here so far! The budtenders are always happy to help you and very knowledgeable. They've provided lots of helpful information about what would be best for my chronic pain. The decor inside is pretty cool too! :)
Always a warm welcome! This is definitely one of the nicer dispensaries in the area; very beautiful and calming architecture. The workers always have great recommendations and help me find what I need for my mood and my wallet! Thanks Caliva!
Caliva collective is a very clean and good looking dispensary. Great and friendly service from the front desk to the budtenders. Great flowers and edibles. Highly recommend!
I love this club it is my very first club and they are always soo welcome and not o mention helpful. Every time I go in and something that I want is out I'm always getting good recommendation.
I've been to many clinics in the area and this is definitely one of the better ones, if not the best. They have an excellent selection and, while not most important, the atmosphere is lovely. The staff are friendly and very knowledgeable. I highly suggest trying their cookies or the chocolate bars. They're my absolute favorite! :-)
Twas my first time here this past Wednesday and have to say I am fully satisfied with my medicine. Can't want to come back. "Red Congolese" is my new favorite. Thanks!
Just went for my first time- everyone was extremely kind and welcoming. Budtender opened the box to my new battery and showed me how to use it, along with tips and tricks. Products are great, too! I will definitely be back!
By far my favorite dispensary. The staff is great, very personable and knowledgeable! Miranda helped me out last time. She's a super sweet but everyone I've met there has been. Seriously, everyone should go there. Whenever I take my friends to a dispensary it is always here.
So Psyched I found Caliva. I work a few blocks away and it's made my daily commute down from SF not so bad. Good top shelf bud and the best deals on FlavRx cartridges that I have seen. Welcoming staff, I feel like I know a few of them pretty well now. It's a nice place to spend some time before I hop on the cal train, keep it up!
- pleasant place to shop- hi-end look and feel inside- easy parking- prices comparable with other dispensaries- good website - except 'contact us' is useless these days. it worked fine in the past (i was able to have a live chat wi
Love this club! Super clean and the staff is knowledgeable about the strands and try their hardest to find the best strand to fit for the type of high you want. Check them out if its your first time to a club!
They have the specials on IG...I usually get a quarter of whatever's on special...quick service....good concentrates, nice professional people there.
Fire spot, cool people, beautiful reclaimed wood everything, incredible buds, happy camper I am. Keep up the good work guys, and don't eliminate the FTP deals!
Thanks to Leo for being a nice and helpful budtender. He had a great attitude and I would return to him. Prices here are quite high compared to other places in the area tho.
Caliva provides so much more than just amazing bud! Yesterday I was helped by the most polite bud-tender I've ever had. Paula was truly helpful when it came to recommending certain products and was just a delight to be around. Caliva never disappoints, amazing atmosphere, outstanding bud tenders, high quality cannabis
I thought their selection seemed limited and I'm a newbie. Very nice place with a lot of parking. I feel like I've gotten a lot of spam emails since I've been there tho :-/
A very clean and refreshing place to be, quick and friendly service and definitely some top quality bud. A free top shelf gram for newbies and referrals. Get them brownies though I'm hella dead
Stopped in for a quick pickup and I was welcomed by a ver nice budtender named Thomas, Thomas was super knowledgeable and super helpful. I will definitely be returning again this place has friendly staff and killer bud!
I go to Caliva about once or twice a week. They have the best flowers in the city on a consistent basis. The prices range from average to amazing if you pick up on deal days. Highly knowledgeable staff and friendly, they never get upset when I ask them to pull out 6-10 different strands to inspect. Great concentrates, tasty edibles, it does not get better than Caliva.
This club is close to my house easy for me to get to and the staff is very nice I give it three stars because they did a price switch on me one time hopefully it doesn't happen again
I was looking for a new collective since my regular one closed. I stopped by since it's close to where I work. Kudos to the staff Steve, Andrew, and Chris. They were very welcoming and showed me a variety of flowers, especially since I prefer Indica dominant. I will definitely be back.
This place is wonderful! Top of the line product grown in-house. Elba was incredibly knowledgeable, kind, and helpful! Great deals!
This place ripped my friend off. They show u some stuff that's ok. Just ok. Then they gave him some horses#*t in a sealed bag! Anyone that reads this review, I'm warning u to think twice bout going to this pretend club
Lovely. Chris M. was great. I walked in, completely ignorant. She listened and was attentively thoughtful. Having never been to dispensary before, I felt welcome and was well care for. Highest recommendations!
Staff is incredibly friendly,facility is clean and spacious. Biggest perks are quality for price and the bud tenders themselves. The quality is amazing got the price, and the bud tenders will tell you exactly how they feel about a strain,good or bad.
From the security guard at the front door to the receptionist, to the counter-person (Chris M.) who helped me, this place is as professional as it gets. Signup was super easy, I was never waiting around longer than a second or two, and their prices are decent. Large selection of flower, very small selection of concentrates although what they had was nice. Chris M. was especially accommodating.
First time with a dispensary and it was amazing. I had issues with online ordering and I called and got amazing service. Was fast and easy. Customer service was very friendly and helpful.
Caliva is the best. The staff is very knowledgeable and helpful. Most notably Kristin, at the front desk. She's always incredibly welcoming and eager to assist ....Great customer service!
Awesome experience at Caliva! I was helped by Akash and he takes good care of me everytime i visit. I've been shopping at Caliva since January and I always look for Akash. He gives great suggestions and it's always a good time when he's my bud-tender! Definitely recommend asking for him! He knows everything!!!
Awesome place, they have a huge selection of products.Free tacos on Tuesdays!They always seem to have vendors from other companies there to do promotions,the leafly girl was really cool!
My first dispensary visit and oh what a good one it was. Well lit, clean, and beautifully organized, I'm sure I will be back. Miranda took her time explaining lots of things to us and seemed to really enjoy her work.
This is my first time ever going to dispensary , so I didn't know what to expect. The overall layout of the place clean, very welcoming and the staff was so nice. Hey huge thumbs up to Chris Miller helping me!!!!
Mistie was such a great help and so sweet. Great customer service !!! Thank you so much
This was my first time at Caliva and the staff was so friendly! Both of the ladies at the front desk gave me a warm welcome, and Dani my bud tender was super helpful and informative on the products. She was awesome, and I will definitely be back
When I first started ordering, the delivery was great. Then, when they opened up the second location there has been issue after issue. First they changed the delivery minimum, without any notification. For Los Altos, for some reason they needed me to order from the Burlingame location, and had to go through all sorts of hoops that was too much of a hassle so I ordered elsewhere. The last time, there was no notification for the debit card feature not working that day; if there had been any notification, would have gotten cash while i was out running errands. Apparently expressing frustration isn't appreciated because it seems that now I've been purged from their system (can't log in and don't get the emails to reset password). Seems they get bad and cheap coders, as well as get too emotional about customers actually wanting to be informed of changes. There's too many options to be so dismissive and disrespectful of customers.
This team is always friendly and willing to assist. Why Kristen helped me renew my recommendation so I can get stuff before the holidays
I came in here two weeks ago and was greeted by a friendly security guard. Was a first time patient here, literally my second time in a dispensary in general, and was greeted by friendly staff. Went through the door and was greeted by an Asian guy, I forget his name, and told him that I am new to the whole thing. I told him, you probably don't care but I am a cancer patient stage 4 testicular cancer and I want to know whats best for me. He immediately told me that he helps cancer patients all the time and took his time to explain CBD and its benefits. I went to another dispensary previously and those guys couldn't care less and were probably high. They just wanted to sell me their stuff and get rid of me. This guy at Caliva took his time and I ended up buying Sour Tsunami that was high in CBD. Gave me a new preroll and I was off my way. Came back two days ago to get some more medicine and a tall White guy helped me and I explained that I needed something high in CBD since I am having surgery next week. He was so cordial and could relate to me as his mother has cancer as well. Took his time and gave me a free preroll. This is the best place, best prices, and absolutely caring staff. Wish I could thank the owner for hiring amazing staff. They also aren't medicated on the job and are focused on helping the customer. Will always come back here in then future. Thanks Caliva.
Happy Sunday Caliva family , thank you very kindly for your pleasant experience I had this week . Your recommendation for the Candy land strain was spot on what I needed for my back pain . It was full bodied , VERY sticky and helped me relax. I've already been back for seconds !
Great customer service, quick delivery! Wide variety of flower, cartridges & extracts.
Have been coming to Caliva for 2 years or so and truly love this place. Amazing quality products and a staff that makes you feel like family. Kristin, who has been there ever since I started coming, has always been my favorite employee there. Always remembers my name, great conversation and promotes the company and what they stand for perfectly, exceptional service. Couldn't ask for a better place to come to! Keep up the good work.
Best dispensary I've ever been to. Definitely have a great selection, and very knowledgeable. Gonna be back for sure.
This place is great. Akash helped me out and he was very professional and knowledgable.
Have some good flowers here. Deals are not too bad. Recommend it to all my friends that are 420 friendly.
I've delt with several different chronic pain issues throughout my life and finally decided to give cannabis a try. I went in a little nervous and full of questions. The staff was very friendly from the security outside to the eaze of check in at the front desk. When I got to the back I was amazed at how beautiful the dispensary was not at all the stereotypical dispensary that i was worried I would encounter. My "budtender" was Desirae and she was great! She answered all my questions with patience and knowledge and never once made me feel dumb for the questions I had. (and I had tons of them!) She took her time and you can tell she loves what she does. I will definitely be coming back! Thank you Caliva!
This place is the best! I might be biased because this is the first dispensary that I've ever visited, but it really is a great place to get flower, edibles, and more. The venue is very modern and aesthetically pleasing, and the 'bud tenders' are so knowledgeable and friendly. The employees do a great job educating customers and guiding them towards the best solution for their particular needs. I usually have know idea what I'm even looking for, and they always guide me in the right direction and help me pick out really great products. My new favorite product is actually the 'Afternoon Delight' cartridge for my pen (Caliva brand). Brian helped me the first time- he was funny, smart, and was actually one of the main reasons why I came back. He recommended some GREAT products that didn't disappoint. Mistie helped me the second time and she was absolutely a joy to be around- she was kind, relatable, and told me her honest opinions about the products. So far, the products i've gotten have been wonderful. I think what makes this place great is the fact that you can tell that employees love their jobs and they want to help people... and they have great flower.
Garbage. i bought a cartridge, absolute, and had a bad reaction. they wouldn't exchange or credit. this was my first trip. now, tp use all my accounts, to point this out. they care nothing for customers. just their money. i figured, i just needed a pen, but why not shop for a cart, while I'm here. BIG MISTAKE. Leaf lab, which recently got shut down, recommended me. that should tell you something about their future fate, as well. theives! find compassionate collectives.not these fancy, heartless, corporate fronts, like harbor and element. they're in the business of selling you expired product, and not refunding. my first trip, ripped off. just got off the phone, with the robber who runs this place
This club offers something very few other dispensaries can, and that is a professional environment. The place is clean, well decorated and organized, and is a pleasure to visit. The flower selection is wide, but not overwhelming. Pricing is fair, not as cheap as some clubs, but you can rest assured that you will get quality. I've never caught myself saying "what did I just pay for?" like I have at some other clubs. Customer service has always been good, I haven't had a negative experience yet. If you want to visit a dispensary that actually feels like a professional business in the medical sector and has an excellent selection of quality buds at a fair price, then Caliva is for you.
The friendliest staff by far, I have encountered at a dispensary. The store is really clean and organized. Budtenders are very knowledgeable. Will be bringing my dad here for an education on CBD. Definitely recommend
Watch out, they keep texting me with prices. I didn't authorize them to and this is a product people may wish to keep confidential!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Everyone I interacted with was professional and easy going.
Caliva is the dispensary I choose to go to when I need Medical weed. Not only because it's a close distance to where I live but also because it's one of the more modern looking medical marijuana dispensaries that I have been to. Staff is friendly and always smiling, they greet when you arrive also as your exiting. Budtenders are always knowledgeable about their products and they don't rush you. Caliva always has a wide range of weed to choose from. Plus it's always very clean and that's a big deal for me because I certainly don't want to get my weed from a place that's grimy looking lol. Check it out if you haven't yet. You can also check their website out at gocaliva.com
no refunds . definitely not good business. i bought some absoltut xtract. very dark. im allergic to coconut oil. they claim it doesnt have any. i cant vape that cartridge. $40 down thedrain. i gave them another chance. they sold me lola cartridges. bogo free. both carts made me feel miserable. another $35, in the garbage. I'll try again, and continue updates. sucks so far. the bogo cartridge i got (lola) was half empty, in comparison to the one i bought. the packaged one i had to choose from, had even less! i told him i would buy if it was more than the freebie. he came back with a full half gram cart. so he feeebied me a half empty demo. i know what a half gram looks like. i have a friend in the industry. i wont give up. I'll keep shopping to point out other ripoffs. that is, unlesd they wish to refund me. but i dont think that will happen. and since they seem to think that ripping off customers is okay, and will bring return business, i don't want to shatter their illusions. unless they're some form of product liquidation storefront, owned by some L.A. collective, to get rid of expired or outdated product.
Very beautiful, huge, nice club. Extremely friendly and knowledgeable staff. Greta point system and large selection. Pricing is lower than other clubs in the neighborhood on my favorite cartridges. Have recommended this place to several already.
Caliva just so happens to be the very first dispensary I had ever been to. I'm glad that it was. Incredibly helpful and friendly staff. Budtenders are knowledgeable and know what they are taking about. Thy try to get you good deals and remind you when you have free things coming your way. Highly reccomend!
They have the best oils around the bay. Great products all around. Staff is all very friendly and knows what they're talking about. Would be nice to have a frequent buyer card though since they are a little pricey.
Mom wanted to buy a lotion or balm with the marijuana additives for her arthritis and since it is now legal for anyone to enter dispensaries, I decided to take her. First time at one by the way. I decided to check out Caliva since I've heard great things about it. It was a little strange visiting but Desiree made us feel very comfortable and welcomed. The place is very professional and has a wide variety of products. Desiree brought out several products which she thought would be what we were looking for. She explained the benefits and pros/cons of each products and did a pricing on each as we went along. She was very knowledgeable and explained the differences in what each product contained and how it would help. Mom purchased the product recommended by Desiree and seems to be satisfied with it's benefits so far. Will definitely return, this time without mom so I can make a personal choice purchase :) Thanks Desiree appreciate your help and your knowledge!
As regular shopper here I can say that tonight experience superseded all!This was the best customer service I've ever experienced. The staff tonight was definitely packed with super stars and if you need a place to get your product (always good stuff) ! I definitely recommend! 20 out of 10 !
On a drive with nothing to do and came across Caliva and decided to drop in... cause why not. Upon checking in I told them it was my first time and was given a mini tour and told how the process worked. Everyone was extremely professional, informative and did not make me feel uncomfortable. I tend to have a low tolerance when it comes to smoking/ edibles so I relayed that and got some excellent recommendations.This is certainly a place I would come back to and refer friends to. The experience was seamless everything was organized and their process was efficient.
Terrible place. I went here for a friend and they have the worst employees and worst customer service I ever seen anywhere. Over priced and bad quality products from what my friend said. Don't recommend at all.
DO NOT COME HERE! Disorganized long lines, ridiculously long wait. You will be told to wait in one line outside (even if it's a pickup order and notifying the security guard). You show your ID. When you make it to the front of the line, you get in and wait in another line, show your ID again, re-confirm all of the personal information you entered at checkout, then you sit and wait in the lobby. Customers seemed annoyed and someone mentioned, "it's always like this". I could hear a worker telling an online customer that shopping live would be faster than picking up his online order. When they finally call you in after waiting in the lobby, you wait in another line. Slow service. Not sure what the point is of ordering ahead when all you do is show ID multiple times within minutes and stand in lines. Go to Purple Lotus, no line, stuff is ready when they say it will be and you're in an out within minutes! Oh, and they actually answer their phones and answer questions, unlike this place that directs you to a chat with a bot, then another chat with a remote delivery branch and then ends the chat when they're trying to transfer you. Terrible experience, there are better places with better specials and customer service without the wait.
Ok, so what I'm going to mention first isn't why I came to leave the review, but... Caliva is my favorite dispensary in the area. I use Pax exclusively because almost everything else burns badly, and their Pax strains are THE BEST (I'm looking at you, Pillow Talk). Just wanted to say that first...Yesterday I went in person to get strains they don't have online when I usually order delivery. Before I left, I checked to make sure they hadn't leaked or anything, and I found one of the pods was more than 1/4 empty (see picture, full pod for reference) though there was no leakage in the package.I had exchanged pods from delivery before, so didn't expect any issues. A guy came out and insisted that it is not as empty as it looks and that leaving it standing upright would verify his claim. I asked where the volume was supposed to come from, and was confused and frustrated, but said I'd run the experiment myself. Well, I did that last night, and you can see the second pic for yourself - I still don't know where it came from but the pods look the same. I'm baffled but the data aren't lying.I tried to be polite with him but fell short of what I would have liked, so decided to document the result here. If you're that guy reading this, sorry for being kinda testy, and thanks for the info!
I can't really tell if this place is more expensive than other places or not because I've only ever gone to SF, however what I like most about this particular dispensary is that they have plentiful parking spots out in front reserved for pick up orders so you never have to step foot inside if you know what you want already. On top of that they have a good assortment of goodies and their chat line is also very helpful.Once you place your order, the system will ask you to confirm your ID by taking a picture. Once your identity is confirmed you can place the order and when the order is ready they text you. I've always had my order filled within 5 minutes of placing it!When you arrive you just text the same number that sent you the confirmation and they will call you to confirm the items in your order and ask how you are paying. You typically pay cash but online they also have a system where you link from your bank account. The person comes to your car and they give you your change inside the bag with your goodies.They are usually very quick but on busier holiday dates where a lot of people are waiting it can take up to 20-30 minutes. I haven't been inside to know what it's like but I'm perfectly fine staying outside waiting for my stuff to get hand delivered instead. I can't speak to the pricing versus other places but I've liked most things I've gotten so far. What I pay for is the convenience really.
Gee, I personally don't use the products, but I go there to buy lighters. Nice safe place, well-organized, well-managed, well-stocked, well-staffed, with friendly service. Plus, Taco Tuesday: spend $50 and get free tacos! I took a picture of the truck and then went home with $50 worth of lighters.
I had never been to a dispensary and had a negative preconceived idea of what it would be like... however I was pleasantly surprised! Caliva is very well organized and kind of has a spa vibe! Security scanning ID for legal age at the door. Then you check in with the girl in the front. Your ID is scanned again. Everything is very well covered, separated, sanitized. The waiting room is beautiful! The "showroom" is beautiful! White pleather furniture, very wide open. I came strictly for the CBD. I was nervous Bc I didn't know what to buy, but my sales person was suuuuper nice, and super helpful! I had TONS of questions, She listened attentively and had recommendations, she taught me how to take the CBD as well. I forgot her name but tipped her well hehe! She was a really cute white girl, with blue eyes, kinda of petite. Describing her for kudos purposes only.Thank you Caliva for giving me an experience.
Check in process: Sign up with the iPad and check in with your ID. No cellphones while in shopEvery station has an iPad to browse through inventory. Very white, black, and woodsy theme going on. As soon as we walked through the locked doors, Chi's energy captured my attention. I love her vibe and everything about her. She knew the assignment when helping me fabricate my order fersure! I shared my cancer diagnosis with her and all the things I like and don't want. She brought a line up of hybrids and sativas out. She was perfect! Chi broke it down to how they were grown, where, what fertilizer, organic or not, etc. (Ok not everyone may be interested in that kind of stuff but I love it! Haha) She even rated them based off her experiences and ways she would mix them up to change the effects. A real connoisseur! I hope she's there next time I'm in shop! Shopping with her brightened my day!
If possible I would give 100+ ALWAYS on time every time! It's the most organized, reliable, simple process from start to finish Driver's professional and as always very pleasant The points/reward system is also always a nice surprise.U R appreciated TY
I just left and I was so pleased with my shopping experience MALIA she was so great with her recommendations I can't wait to go back again thanks so much in times like this is so nice to have a good conversation with a knowledgeable bud tender !! MUST come
All the staff at Deli by Caliva are very knowledgeable and friendly! The products here are of great quality and fairly priced, plus they are led by one of the coolest people ever in Malia! I recommend that the whole bay stop through if you have the chance!
A huge shout out to LLOYD! He was super sweet and extremely helpful. This is the 3rd time he has helped me and he never disappoints! He recommended a product and now it is my go to. The lady at the front desk was also super sweet and friendly but I did not get her name :( This store has great prices, amazing customer service, and is always stocked with my favorite goods.
This is definitely a place I'll come visit the staff was friendly and I was looking for a certain cartridge and they had variety .I no longer had to do a drive to the city or have to buy a new pen for my gpen definitely will return.
This place is ultimately hands down my favorite spot of all time. Considering the fact I'm here at least twice a week for my well needed concentrate and some of the most exclusive high grade fabulous flower they to offer. Everything about this place is great vibes from the security guards to the time you exit so you are sure to have an awesome visit everytime leaving with what you need, and one hell of a smile on your face. I've been coming here for quite some time now and felt this was definitely long overdue. Especially after today's world class customer service as always from Dave, he was able to help me add up all my rewards points from all uncounted times that I've been there and let's just say he was BIG help. Thanks Deli you guys are awesome keep up the great work.
This is the only place I go to but after today idk I got the kush cake and it has hug steams on the tree which I know were left for weight.. was I ripped off ..not good business
Whether she's been in the front or the back, each time we've been helped by Marissa, has been so helpful and always makes our experience great. We'll return for her customer service alone. Love it here
Staff was very informative and friendly !I came here to get the BIG STIIIZY battery and the pods and some gummies. They have a wide range of products and the staff was very knowledgable. Price is decent and competitive to other nearby stores. If it is your first time, you get 20% off! So ask about that when you visit!
My Bud tender had the remarkable name period his name is Stone. That's kind of hard to forget you mean after all we're ordering butzinsky here period and already we're off to a rolling stone start... I ordered the live sauce vapor pen and the pre-rolled budlets and hashish joint for $12 and then I don't know why I think I still needed something oh yeah I bought anything fun Uncle because they grew this stuff their selves right here in San Jose California and that kind of feels good when you supporting your people your support and your roots and your being true to your community so even if your community doesn't know who you are or doesn't even approve of you you have a friend in cannabis world with stone because he is a well-informed been very helpful salesperson he knows his terminology as well as his product very well and he is there to serve he's not lazy at all by the way I got a first person first time discount and wow I was impressed they really they had me at first hello everybody was perfect from the guard up front to the receptionist to the bartender everything was perfect I can recommend this place to anyone with confidence it's a one five star
Darren and Marissa. Or was it Derek , damn this weed at caliva is good, can't even remember my guys name. Ok anyway, Darren ( I think,) has never failed me. He's kinda my goodluck charm when picking weed in the dark, he will always be my light. He ( out of 4 times,) always gives me some super cheap but super fire weed. For some reason, I get that lucky with him. And he's cool. Marissa, she's lightweight one of my favorites, ( Darren forgive me please!) she's vibrant, professional, smart, she's got it all AND gives the kind of customer service that will actually get my lazy ass to write a review. No simp, really. I hope they both get a raise and win the lottery.
If you are looking for a great place to purchase top quality cannabis this is the best spot in San Jose. The selection in prerolls as well as good flowers. I stretch my buying powers here !! Oh and they got Cookies Brand London Poundcake PreRolls!!! Super pleased with this location.
knowledgeable wellness consultants and friendly staff they are more for the advanced smoking crowd with their concentrates and high end flower but will accommodate your price range : ) you get 20% off your first time which is nice! (No freebies but you know that if you voted to legalize cannabis ) anyways I was in and out of there, they have a big variety and some stuff that Caliva doesn't carry!! Cute lil Deli set up and there are new deals every time I come in. Do: check weedmaps for what you want, I love that it's updated often and it makes the process quick. They have good suggestions too if you're looking for something specific.
Came here and it was busy. First time patient here and the lady up in the front was nice. Ended up getting a free gram. They allow you to IG or Snapchat but you can't text or call. Long line to get to the budtenders which only two staff were working in the back. They have tv screens with the menu on there with the price. I really wanted the Berner's cookies but they didn't have any in stock. Ended up getting the Bruce banner and cookies and cream and a free gram of now and laters. It was all delicious. I would come back again because this is the only place where I know of that they sell the Berners cookies besides SF that I'm patiently waiting for.
My boyfriend and I have been here a couple times separately and have both had great experiences. Each time I have stopped by I was helped by the very kind Lloyd. He was super nice and helpful and really made me feel welcomed. Love this place for the prices and the hospitality. Will definitely be making this my new regular dispensary.
5 stars for Lloyd the budtender! He always makes the best bang for my buck everytime. Super knowledgeable - and patient lol. My go to budtender at the Deli hands down. Thanks Lloyd! :)
Dude I seriously don't know why anybody is put a 1 Star my boys deserve a 5 star ! They know my boyfriend & I shout out Matt , Joey , Bre , Nate Loyd , Dave & Marissa also that one girl that's been there since the beginning when it was cookies lol I jyst don't know how too spell her ba been going here for years never left disappointed you guys are awsome
I really really loved the service. My anxiety has been at an all time high and I didn't know what else to do. So I came here in hopes that smoking would lessen my anxiety. The girl who helped me was super sweet and helpful she informed me of what I needed to relieve my anxiety and showed me a couple options. Everyone there was nice and the vibe was welcoming to me. Will be coming again!!
The staff was really friendly and informative! There was an issue with my order, but the resolved it really quickly. Would come back again!
If you're in the San Jose area and you're in need of bud look no further! Santa Cruz genetics is the one stop shop with awesome deals on flower and vape cartridges and concentrates! Their Heavy Hitters and Rad vapes are always priced for a good deal and always have deal days on certain products!! I'm an event specialist with a distribution company so I see these guys all the time and I'm always greeted with big smiles! The staff is awesome even though they have gone through changes one thing that stays the same is their great attitudes!Matt is a manager there and is a really cool guy! So if you see him make sure to say hi!
please read my review below. i couldn't use that many words in the text box here so i wrote it on google docs and screenshot it. i know it's lengthy but i hope upper management hears this.
Dude these guys are the definition of Compassionate.Had a rough day work, very tough customers. We closed late that night.So I open up my WeedMaps and I start looking for some deals. Also, since it was getting late, I also had to look at closing times.That's when I noticed Santa Cruz Genetics. Not only did they close in 19 minutes, the ALSO just so happened to have a $20 Girl Scout Cookies deal.It's almost as if that night: it was MEANT to happen.So we straight up mobbed there. Google Maps said 13 minutes arrival time. CUTTIN IT CLOSE!!!We ended up successfully completing our mission, got there before closing time and they accepted me as a new patient.I was very satisfied with my customer service and the friendliness of the security staff as well.The biggest shoutout I got for this review goes to: Kaela.Without her, I wouldn't have been able to gather the information I needed about my time-critical mission and she was able to input all the data very swiftly so they could start approving my purchase for that night.Thank you Kaela, you made my coworker and mine's night! You helped us complete a mission and you were friendly while doing so.Please don't be mad at her for accepting new patients after 8:30. It was totally my fault, and all she was trying to do was provide some world class customer service and make a sale.Thank you again Santa Cruz Genetics, I will DEFINITELY be returning frequently!
When I'm feeling rich and don't mind spending a few extra dollars while killin' some time shopping, this is the spot. I can go to other spots and keep some change for munchies; but the feel is premium and I don't feel pressure when I show up high not knowing what I want.
Went and checked this dispensary out on their opening day today. They had a great variety of flowers that were looking and smelling wonderful. The staff was friendly explained everything very thoroughly. They also have a TON of edible options as well, and a lot of it is good looking stuff I haven't really noticed elsewhere. In talking with the manager, I can tell you he's very experienced and they definitely care a ton about the quality of medicine. So I can say with confidence that the meds here are always going to be great.To be fair and informative I want to give a heads up that right now they aren't accepting credit cards yet since they just opened and are still working out the fine details. Doesn't matter though just bring cash for now because the medicine and knowledge is there.
Went to the opening today. It's just down Pullman way off Monterey. Just Breakfast is at corner. The staff here was so great. Personable and not the ghetto thuggish staff you encounter at many dispensaries. They were all very knowledgeable and willing to help. Again a change from most places where your just another patient in line. Thanks again guys for reminding me that this is supossed to be a compassionate industry. The variety of brands were great even for opening day. I'm sure many more are coming. Best of all prices are very good. San Jose charges a lot of tax but the pricing is fair so it makes up for the tax a little. And Vets & Seniors always get 15% off everyday! I found my new San Jose shop for my medicine!
My first visit was amazing. I had a very polite bud tender named Jessica, I hope thats right....She went through evrything they offer incliding edibles, flower, wax, hash. I love that they show the CBD and THC content of all their strains it makes an easier to make a selection. It shows that they take the time to really asses what they sell patients. I love it, my new go to. Prices are VERY reasionable for quality bud. I will see you guys again soon.
You can never go wrong with Cookie! But I would prefer Cookies SF better. This place has a good verity but I just can't stand it when they're just tryna false advertise their products just to sell. I like to ask questions and get down to details about my medicine. Some top shelf should be mid shelf. I bought flower from top shelf that did not taste, smell or ash like what they tell me. Don't get me wrong, I would come back. I just don't want to be disappointed with my purchase. I suggest maybe educate some of the budtenders. Long hair dude with tattoos is never a disappointment. He knows what he's talking about when it comes down to the details of everything.
Smaller version of the main Caliva. More variety & better deals. Tim was awesome helping us pick out our sativa & indica choices
Best deals in townIn & out serviceEveryone is very friendlyParking sucks . that would have to be my only complaint
This is my favorite dispensary they have great deals and a huge selection of flower. The bud tenders are very knowledgeable and are super friendly.
the WORST customer service ever!!! they treated me so disrespectful after being a customer since they opened coming in almost weekly good product but sadly i will never come back due to how i was treated
This club was shitty ass fuck me thinking it's Berner club so should be good I thought wrong. Shitty service no free gift the weed was pre weighed out I don't recommend this place to anyone
Great place the selection in flower is amazing way better then airfield so worth every dollar the flower is not dry and crumbling it's not harsh taste amazing can't forget that great selection of flowers Whitney the front desk was amazing really nice and helpful very friendly environment deffitnley would recommend it's cash only
Really nice staff and friendly and good environment. Really good bud and all the prices are final they don't charge tax which is really awesome!!
Worst place I've ever been to in San Jose. I've been shorted twice. They play music that uses the n-word I find that disrespectful and racist
Just checked out this newly opened club in SJ. It was a great overall experience. It was their first day and while there were a few hiccups, they will quickly be your favorite club. The staff is super friendly and knowledgable. Their selection is also quite vast with more to come in the following days. I highly recommend the Durban Poison. Oh and bonus, one of only dispensaries in town that carry California Finest if that is your thing. This will be your go to club for good selection and great prices. Oh and the great customer service as well. Check it out as soon as you can.
After buying some garbage weed at another dispensary, never again will I go any place in the south bay other than 92 pullman! No, they don't really give out free gifts if you're a new patient, but their bud is very high quality and strong! I LOVE This place! Every time I come here to visit, it's like Christmas for me. Lol. This dispensary spoiled me with their cannabis, I am super picky with my weed thanks to these guys! The women at the front desk are really nice and so are the bud tenders! They only accept cash. They have an atm that charges like $3 per withdrawl. The prices listed on weedmaps is the price with the tax included, something which I appreciate when trying to budget my weed money lol. I LOVE Cookies Fam strains. Any of the Gelatos are fire and the top shelf sherbert is my personal favorite. The prices are kinda high, but they do have $10/gram and mid shelf strains that have the same quality as the top shelf stuff. Just ask the budtenders what they recommend from the mid shelf and use your nose to determine what's good. It works every time for me! Occasionally they have a discount bin with really good stuff as well. You should try: Gelato #45, Gelato #41, Top shelf Sunset Sherbet, Gushers,Thin Mint Cookies, Animal cookies, forbidden fruit, berner's cookies,
Visited this dispensary for the first time today and had a very wonderful experience. Our bud tender, SYDNEY, was very knowledgeable about their products, and were able to steer us in the direction we wanted with desired effects and our budget. She was really awesome and quick, and we were able to be in and out with no hiccups. I'm used to driving a little further and paying more per item, so I'm thinking I've found my new spot for uplifting supplies. Very happy with this visit !
Sydney!! Thank you for always being such a pleasure to work with. You make buying my products fun and light hearted. Thank you!!
First time here just also happened to be my birthday and I got the first timer discount and got the most fire tree ever. The budtender was amazing and had such a positive vibe and definitely seemed like she enjoyed doing her job. Definitely plan on coming back here again
Was helped by Sydney and it couldn't have been a more enjoyable experience. I was able to explain what I was looking for and what my budget was and Sydney was knowledgeable and friendly. The selection is amazing. And the bud is DANK. I'll be a return customer.
Got helped by SIDNEY today. People like SIDNEY are essential for happy customers and a great running business. Loved her enthusiasm and expanding knowledge.
These guys are the best! The staff is really great! From the simplest conversation, to the best one from you favorite bud tender is always great time. Very helpful to anything you need for your medical needs, just be clear and patient. Never been dissatisfied, or had gotten the wrong products. They have a good selection of most things. Give great vibes there and you'll leave a happier person!
Great price, amazing customer service just wish they accepted credit card. I've been here 3 times and it's definitely my first place to go.
All is good it was a simple misunderstanding on my part. I'm sorry. All staff is awesome and always very friendly. Very personable and knowledgeable! That definitely keeps a lot of people coming back!
Very clean place. High quality cannabis products. Always leave satisfied with my purchase.
Caliva is my go to delivery service! They always have a wide range of products of the highest quality. The prices are prime and most of everything is always in stock Caliva's service is wonderful! I always get my delivery quickly and with ease. All the delivery people are kind and helpful. Shout out to Crystal for being awesome on this past delivery! I'll continue to use Caliva and recommend this business to others! Thanks Caliva!
Very reliable, great service, COVID safe, variety of options for product and customer focused. Highly recommend.
While the product and selection is great, much is left wanting with their customer service! It is down right horrible , no one takes responsibility let alone if they answer or respond. And they never take responsibility. I have been delivered the wrong product and damage product in the past , and good luck getting them to do something about it. No customer appreciation even though I spend 500 to a thousand dollars a month, they wont replace a $14dollar chocolate bar that my order clearly shows I ordered a white chocolate, and they bring dark , plus my vape cartridge was cracked and leaking and I am pulling tooth and nail to have them even respond.. Really unfortunate!
3 orders each time took over an hour just to receive an eta of 3 more hours. Communication sucks really bad . 1st order 4 hours 2nd order 3 hours 3rd order was a no show with no call or text or anything. Jay z should be embarrassed to operate the worst club in the bay. And that sucks because they have good meds.First they blamed the time frames on the pandemic which was a lie to my face because if you look through reviews 6 months back people are saying the times are bad and they are not even showing up . I'd stay clear unless you want to waste your time on meds that won't show .and to pull this crap the day before 420 is pathetic.
Great products and delivery but also great customer service. I had a slight issue with the delivery so I contacted customer service. Shortly after I received phone calls from the manager Cameron who solved this problem immediately and scheduled a speedy delivery. After the delivery Chris made a follow up call to ensure everything went well. Very professional, I continue to be impressed! I have been a heavy smoker for decades, nobody touches Caliva's combination of strains, delivery, PRICE and now customer service.I live in SAN FRANCISCO - CALIVA DELIVERY IS CHEAPER than any dispensary here and with very consistent products. Keep it up!!!
Absolutely love this place! Caliva has a wide range of products to choose from. Upon arrival, my delivery guy (Anthony Tran) was kind enough to ensure that I received all the products I've ordered online. He went above and beyond and provided great customer service. Caliva's delivery services are reliable, covid-19 safe and quick!
With Caliva Delivery, you can't go wrong. They have a great variety of products to choose from. Anthony Tran, delivered my order with great customer service, he was really friendly and followed all social distancing protocols due to COVID-19. This was my first time using Caliva Delivery and it was a great experience, I highly recommend.
First off, I want to comments on the staff and just how great everyone is, today Raquel came by and made my weekend she was so quick!On top of this delivery service providing the best products on One could possibly get whether you're in a store out of the store, they don't burn a hold of your pocket with fees, with a Caliva they realize how to do business well, by making things affordable (unlike *cough EAZE cough cough*)For some odd reason I see "eaze number 1, Caliva number 2", which was not the case by ANY means.Eaze over time had so many problems they had to delete their phone line, on top of after maybe 3 years, just solving how to keep their inventory to have more than 1 half gram cartridge! Your employees have gone above and beyond for us especially during Covid, I have to give special thanks to and employee of yours, Raquel, who is always early, never late, and extremely kind!Everyone else if I could thank and remember the names of, I will do so in time because y'all have always treated us here like family and were so very grateful! Happy Holidays!
Love it. Olga and Ronz are really polite and conscientious! Tried a few different delivery services, and Caliva was the smoothest operation, but also great communication. My delivery drivers were deaf and communicated with text. I'm pretty much gonna stick with Caliva because they support members of the deaf community. Made me want to learn how to sign. I left a tip, but until I know how to sign, I wanna say thanks, for the professionalism, courtesy, efficiency, patience, and expert communication. The selection is priced just a bit better than places I tried before, quality so far has been better or the same. I like the half gram options on extracts to just try new stuff. Website is fast and easy to use. Thank you for the 25% off card for my next order too! I'll be ordering again soon! Be safe out there!
The staff is great, friendly, and helpful. But repeatedly getting a lower percentage product than what I was advertised on their website feels like I'm getting ripped off. Buying a 31% product and receiving a 24% eighth is wrong. especially if you're using it for medical purposes, those numbers are quite important.
I came to Caliva after eaze disappointed me for the last time! Caliva has always had good customer service. They've been up front about how their system works and what your wait times are. It's a hit or miss depending on the day and how busy it gets. I found that placing my order very late at night allows for an early delivery and less wait time. When I place an order in the evening then I wait at least 2-4hours because that's rush hour and when most people order. I also like their selections. Delivery people always seem to know what they're doing. Doesn't hurt to try it out!
If I could give this rating 0 stars I would. You get the theme from the rest of the reviews. I placed an order at 630 and never received an update the entire evening. Called 3 times no response. Email confirmation said "we're typically very fast but during busy hours it may take up to 60 minutes." HA!!Finally had someone answer their service line at 9pm only to say we will let you know by 10 if we can fulfill your order. Writing this review as I still wait. I would've loved an update before all other stores closed on a Friday night.Thank you for wasting my evening. I'm shocked by the incredibly poor service.
They ended up resolving issue after a couple days. I moved to Capitola and we get a delivery out here 3 times a week which makes it easier. Since moving I have had no issues.
Adrian arrived within the predicted ETA and was able to find my front door, which has a bad reputation of being hidden. One of the prerolls I has ordered was out of stock, so they called me within 10 minutes of checking out to let me know. The replacement process was quick and easy. Overall very pleasant delivery experience and customer service!
This is a great service and the drivers are friendly but if we placed an order at 10:30am that you said would arrive in approximately 90 minutes. So we waited. And waited. And waited some more. We called a few times only to get no response tgen, finally, at 1:30 (after three hours!) someone answered and basically told us, "Sorry it took so long, it should be there at 2:50".2:50?!! That's almost FIVE HOURS!And not even an offer to discount the purchase!Good to know you don't mind wasting our ENTIRE day. Hope you won't mind losing our business, either.
Ordered through them because their website said that deliveries take card. Placed order at little before 7 and then guy didn't get here until after 9. Once he gets here, I get my card out and he proceeds to tell me that they don't accept card... ok... don't have any cash on me so run to closest ATM. My order had come out to around $65 so I got $80 thinking I could get some change back.I pay him the money and then he just looks at me with a blank face as I'm waiting for him to get change... he literally asks me if I wanted change or something... umm??? I ask for a 10 back and he's just like "oh, well I don't carry change" ??? If you don't accept card and only accept cash, how do you not have change???Anyways, being too tired to argue at this point, I just take my order and go back inside. It was so unprofessional and felt super shady.Also, I exclusively order edibles and this product is one of the grossest tasting I've had. Won't be ordering again...
Loved the conversation that I had with one of the employees today through chat. Faye answered all my questions on the product I purchased! Overall super stoked the product, the customer service and efficient delivery! Thanks Caliva!
Reina was super nice and welcoming. She did an excellent job at recommending different options for gummies, as our original gummy of choice was out. Although it was busy because it was the end of the night, she managed to pack such excellent service in an efficient amount of time. Would totally recommend to work with her for your next visit to Caliva. Thank you Reina!
First time ordering Caliva while Tania delivered my order, she was so sweet and kind! Placed it for delivery for later in the day and it came just in time they go above and beyond to provide us with the best customer service and products! Definitely will be ordering from them again!!
Unfortunately my last exchange with the customer service and manager where very unfortunate. They just kept saying all sales final. I understand the policy however, I wasn't asking for a refund, I was asking for a replacement of the product that was defective. Yes I purchased the product 3 months ago, but it was unopened until now. When I opened the tin, the product had fuzzy mold all over the gummies. Um, I've never seen gummies get mold on them. They were stored in a dry place. It wasn't expired and still had the seal on it until I opened it. Again, when have you ever seen mold on gummies? It's sad that a dispensary goes corporate and doesn't stand by the products they sell and stick to a company line. So much for customer service. I'm better with the competition.
Crystal delivered my order in 15 min! The whole transaction went super easy and smooth!! Would def use this service again!!
Ordered. Waited 30+ minutes for confirmation. Nobody answered the phone. No email address to contact. Chat seemed like it was 1/2 staffed. Intermittent responses. Cancelled order. Delivery failure. Website looks good but no capability to deliver ... um the most important thing.UPDATE: I'm increasing my rating to 3 as someone reached out to me to apologize and make an earnest effort to address my concerns. Well done!
Love love! Super easy for the 21+, you go online sign up, order your items, receive a confirmation text then wait a bit till your driver sends you a eta text. It's that easy! When the delivery arrives, be ready with your id and cash and that's it. Super friendly folks and great inventory to choose from.
We got Michelle as delivery driver for our cbd recovery cream, super nice and fun chat. These guys are great.
Timing was great they got here like in 20 minutes But the quality wasnt that great everything was really dry and I only received popcorn nugs I forsure wont order from here again
Absolute rip off!!! Here are all of my negative findings:Caliva charges the following taxes: 15% excise, 10% MBT, and 9.25% sales tax. They also do NOT let you combine any promotions with the veteran/senior discount. Cash-only in this day and age.I wanted to give them a try since the #1 delivery service in SF has gone slightly downhill in the past, but they're still way better. Don't want to say the name 'cause I'm not advertising for anyone, but starts with E, you can figure it out. They only charge 12% + 7.4% for taxes AND you can combine discounts.Get your act together Caliva!
I had the best experience using Caliva! I spoke with someone named Tim on the phone who helped me pick out a couple of my items. He was really friendly and helpful. The website was so easy to use. The delivery was quick and safe... especially during the shelter in home order. Thanks Caliva and Tim for being so helpful. Will def be using this for my next order!
First time ordering from Caliva and it was an amazing experience! My delivery driver Dana was so helpful and kind. I was having trouble connecting to the Paytender app - she had a hotspot so she shared it with me! She was so patient and did not get upset at the fact that I didn't have the webpage ready. I appreciated her so so much. Will definitely order again from here again. Prices are great as well.. I'm a happy customer!
I signed up for this service and immediately started to get an insane amount of spam texts and calls. They are clearly selling your private info to the scummiest people in existence. Not trustworthy.
Crystal is very professional, kind, and efficient. She is either on time or early and always comes with a smile on. Great products and service!
My fiance and I ordered at caliva for the first time today and the experience was great! We didn't know what to get so we talked to someone on chat and asked for recommendations. The person was so helpful and patient with the process! She recommended a lot of great things. I will definitely tell my friends about this company!
Great selection, reasonable prices. My driver Willie was friendly and professional.
Really happy with the delivery today. They had everything I was looking for in their catalog. Ordering online was easy. Good communication about when they'd arrive. I would use them again.
Really convenient & discrete delivery service. Crystal from Brisbane Caliva is great! She insisted on coming up to my door because it was so cold outside. Now, that's great service.
Extremely convenient delivery service from the top name in cannabis. Highly recommend.
Crystal hooked me up in a timely manner from Caliva Brisbane WOOP WOOP!!
I pay for top shelf expect nice big nugs I Ordered 2 1/8th Alien O.G. Both came tiny smalls nugs. Other dispensary always sell tiny nugs at discount prices bc the quality isn't that great. Thanks for ripping me off.never ordering here again.
I have chronic daily pain and Caliva delivery during this time has been amazing! They have a wide variety of products. I personally use alien OG for severe cramping, nausea, migraines and nerve pain. Their delivery people are incredibly helpful and kind as well. Also, don't forget to TIP! These are essential workers who are driving in hazardous conditions to deliver medicine. Even if that wasn't the case I would still be tipping. I am so grateful and thankful.
It was such a cold and dull night until I got my Gorilla Glue delivered by Crystal. Such a sweet lady and hella fast. 100/100 would order again from Caliva SF!
This service is fantastic. It was my first time ordering cannabis online as I usually go to a local dispensary in the city. This was so much easier as there was no waiting in line and they had every item in stock that I was looking for. Placed the order, got confirmation, then a text that my order was on the way. My driver, Chris B, texted me when he was close and two minutes later showed up at my front door. The transaction was fast and Chris was great. I will definitely be ordering from Caliva again!
I'm very impressed on how easy this was. Ordering was super easy and I was informed when the product would arrive. The delivery person Jackie was super nice and made sure I received all of my items. Highly recommend this service!
First time customer. Placed order at 5pm get zero response about when. Approximately they would be able to fill my order untill just before 9pm. The driver tells me the cost will be 85$ and change when my email recipts say 76$ and change. I asked about why the change in price was offered zero explanation. I called the Brisbane office number explained my issue was asked if i used the promo code to wich i replied yes. After i was told " so did everyone else in the bay area" as if this some how explains why the price discrepancies. Poor customer service long uninformed wait times. They did offer the excuse that their tax system isnt government approved so thats why the tax was incorrectly calculated. Sorry your system quoted me a price and sent a receipt but thats not my fault and you should honor the quote. Not to mention after the initial 4 hour wait the driver took it upon himself to cancle my order and i had to wait again in line to have it re delivered. If i could rate lower the. 1 star i would. Definitely wont be a return customer nor would i recommend them to anyone.
I was a little worried when I first ordered from Caliva because of the distance. Fortunately, I have never waited longer than 1hour from the time my order is confirmed to my delivery. The selection is fantastic, I personally appreciate their Sativa selection. They also have a range in price and nothing is astronomical. I suggest Fun Uncle if you're on a budget you can buy grams or eigths and they're only $30 an eighth. Also with Fun Uncle THC% means nothing try the Donny Durban (Poison) it's a great head high. Also they have the Original Jack Herer and it's better than any I've had. Customer service always calls if they are out of stock and have a suggestion on hand for a replacement. Special shout out to Cameron one of the managers at Caliva, I had a delivery issue with an item and he was professional, friendly and handled the issue to my satisfaction.
Just had my first delivery in a year, and it was great! I didn't place my order until nearly 8:30 and they still were able to deliver to me. Also, my delivery driver, Diane was great! Funny and efficient. Highly recommend.
They don't honor promotions and have terrible customer service and wait times . Ease has shitty service as well but at least you get your delivery on time
One of my favorite delivery services in the Bay Area! Fast, reliable, and good people! I highly recommend going to Caliva for all your Kush needs. I'll be a loyal customer for life!
This was my 3rd time placing a delivery order. Working with Elisa Ta on couldn't have been more seamless and hassle-free. Just like the previous two orders :)
It's always just so easy when I use Caliva. They are professional and courteous and punctual. I mean what else can I say. It's never a hassle and the drivers are so nice. I even had one of them offer to buy me a cup of coffee when I had an issue with the app and she was so patient while I figured it out. Crystal and Michelle made my last couple of deliveries such a pleasant experience and to all the guys over at the shop you guys rock. No reason to use another delivery service. OK that's all I got. Try it and you won't regret it. Thanks Caliva
Overall good drivers, but shady business. I was overcharged then given the run around on the phone. Still waiting on a response.. Customer service isn't that hard. Come on guys!
Joseph W did a great job delivering. Very professional and courteous. I'd recommend him anytime. Great service.
I've used Caliva a few times now and they have exceeded my expectations! Fast delivery, easy to use and great selection of products. My last delivery guy, Vincent was super friendly and helpful with any questions.
This was my second delivery from Crystal and she always arrives early! She is so friendly and knowledgeable and discreet. I hope she continues to be my main delivery driver.
So amazed and delighted to have Crystal deliver, within the time frame promised. I tried this service after leaving another local service, and their prices are better. But I wouldn't use this service if it weren't for Crystal.. thank you
Chris (in the silver juke)was such an AWESOME driver!!! He came right up to my door and greeted me with a huge smile! He even made me laugh!!!! It was my first time ordering weed, was a little hesitant about it, but he made me feel so comfortable! And he texted me in advance to let me know when he would get there! Very down to earth person while staying professional!!! Thank you so much Chris! I hope you are my driver for EVERY delivery!
Worst delivery service I've experienced by far. I placed my order and never received a confirmation email. I started a chat on their website and they were no help. I was told they couldn't help me because they were in their retail department and not delivery department. I then receive a call a couple of hours later telling me that the delivery could not be made and they could deliver the next day if I give them a 2 hour period for arrival time. I told them between 7-9 pm and I received a text the day of the delivery stating that my order would arrive at 6 pm. I called again to reiterate that I would not be home until 7 pm and they said that they would change my delivery time. I then receive a call right before 7 pm from my driver saying that she can't take debit anymore just cash. I told her just cancel the order because I only had my debit card. Eventually my order was handed off to someone who had a working debit machine. AND THEN, when my order arrived some of my items were missing. No one ever told me they were out of stock until I read it on my receipt. So I waited over a day just to not receive what I wanted. For something that's suppose to be so simple, it became the biggest hassle ever. Never ordering delivery from these people again. Worst customer service.
Excellent!! Great products, consistent fast deliver and customer service. The delivery people are awesome. Thank you Willie for the excellent service!
Placed my order and they said it would take about an hour. My delivery driver Adrian Benton was here right on time and a very nice guy.
Just got my delivery! I was very impressed with Michael, he was friendly and very professional. I'll definitely order from here again.
Love this place! It's super easy to order and the prices are fair. We keep getting Gabe as a delivery driver and he's been great! No need to look further, we found our spot.
excellent service ! had a great time getting my order and had a nice lady named Crystal greeting me with my order. and being very polite ! thank you caliva :) you guys always got me.
Caliva, I'm trying to like you. First delivery was on time but was double charged. I was offered a credit with them. Ordered this morning, called to make sure credit was on my delivery, set a delivery time of 2pm. Got a text at 12:40 saying they'd be there in an hour. I rush home to meet them.... and wait. 4 HOURS LATER delivery is complete. And of course credit WAS NOT on the bill, they wanted to charge me and said the systems were different so they couldn't see my credit. Finally got them to find my credit. Glad I used most of it up. Won't be ordering again
First time for delivery and it was great. Jackie was awesome. Will definitely use again. Very friendly and outgoing.
I won't be ordering from Caliva ever again. It's not that I don't like their delivery service or products. But it's so damn expensive. I bought these vape cartridges and they each charge tax's on it on top of the sales tax ands excist tax. I rather order from eaze because I pay whatever is on the computer. The subtotal on the website, did not match the recipe... One of my vape was 23.99 but plus the ridiculous charge it was $34.49... wth... I will never order from them again.
New go to spot! Great selection from flowers to topicals. Website is user friendly, and A1 customer service!!!
My experience with the folks in Brisbane has been always really good. I ordered at least a dozen times and the customer experience has been excellent. I also like the large selection. If I were them, I would implement a way for customers to review their products on their website.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE Caliva !I have been buying cannabis from them for over a year now and they always have the best deals and free delivery over 50$.I buy off this online delivery, usually takes less than an hour to deliver. The only issue I have is that they NEVER have any promos. Like never. I always buy over 200$ and not once have a gotten an free item or points towards my next order like other cannabis clubs. If they did that I bet this company would be top 5, guaranteed ! Other than that no complaints. Drivers are always super nice & helpful if I have question.UPDATE: Thank you Jane ! I don't think I am signed up for that but I will definitely do that now. Thanks for the quick response to this yelp review ! I will continue to buy from you guys as I love your products ! Took a video of my purchase today. You guys are great !
Worst service. Rude people over the phone and acts very defensive. You just lost a customer and maybe more.
Web site is the worst ever. Ordering system is totally impossible. Extreme waste of time. Loved Caliva when the store was walk-in in San Carlos.Too bad you just lost a customer.
This is just another terrible delivery service. Overpriced product! The club redemption for customers is the worst. If you need to talk to someone you get a robot that can't understand your simple question. Lost a Valued customer today. I realized I would rather quit using than use this service anymore. I wish I could tell you a better place to shop your delivery, but I can't. They are all garbage.
By for the worst online shopping experience. Website was barely acceptable, couldn't navigate on mobile. Can't just use your debit card for purchase, they make you make some bullshit account thru a no-name billing service instead of just using PayPal like everyone else. New payment service requires you to link your bank account to Caliva. God forbid you miss the delivery window by a minute because the website is taking ages to load. I wish I could give zero stars.
Caliva ran out of a sales item, and a worker thoughtfully called me to let me know. We worked out a compromise and everything was good. This was around 11:20 AM and I was anticipating my order to arrive the next dayBut it isn't coming, because after our call ended at 11:30, someone at 1:41 PM, 2 hrs later decided that wasn't going to work for them, so they sent me an email to cancel the order. They didn't call me back, they didn't bother trying to text, they used a different type of communication that is easy to overlook, and takes away a customer's ability to object.Do not order from these clowns. Their prices are good, but their souls are dirty.Real shame, Caliva's practically an institution, and this is how they treat new customers.
So I placed an order before 7 pm and I'm still here waiting (9:38pm)because there's 6 more stops ahead of mines and the eta for delivery is 11:30 ? And I live next to Brisbane ? There's something wrong here..Major fail !!
I placed my fourth order with Caliva on November 2 around 6pm. When I placed my order, my items were confirmed in stock, and my total was over $100.I waited and waited and waited. No call, no text, nothing, they were a no-show. After 11pm, I happened to check my email, and the following email from them was waiting:"Your delivery order has been canceled. Thank you for placing an order with Caliva, and we're sorry we couldn't fulfill your order request. We hope to see you back at Caliva soon!"No reason for the cancellation! Eff them!
Faye has excellent customer service and was also friendly and knowledgeable about the products I ordered. Thank you Faye!!
The company is great! People who deliver are very nice chill people wanting the best out of your cannabis experience with the best prices and very good top shelf stuff! One of the employees Faye was very helpful with what sorts of cannabis is the best seller and which of the strains was best! Very chill and nice person! Def coming back and purchasing here again!
My first delivery order....and it was FANTASTIC!!! The delivery guy was real cool, professional, friendly, courteous, kept his distance AND delivered in the time frame I was promised...OVERALL I really had a very pleasant experience with him. I really LOVED that they deliver to SF from SJ, for me it's a HUGE PLUS!!! My order was accurate, plus I got a cool 30% off on my first order and their product is GREAT. Most importantly I don't want to forget to mention that their customer service via telephone, chat and in-person was extraordinary...the times when we need friendly, understanding and patient people; this company and it's staff brings to us THAT quality service! Looking forward to the re-opening of the store and a tour!!!
Easy to use website. Service was within the time frame requested. Fast and friendly delivery. Great experience from start to finish. Product was good, great range of prices and products.
Caliva is my go-to place. Used to visit their storefront in SJ for a while, and then they started delivering to the Tri-Valley. Since then, it's delivery all the time. Prices are very good and so is the freshness of their products. Delivery driver is always polite and asks me to check my order first before completing the transaction. Top notch service, and this last time, the delivery was in the first half of the delivery window! Great job, Caliva!
This place is awesome! They make ordering super easy and the delivery driver was here the exact time did not even have an issue finding my address! He was super nice and I’m really excited to try all kinds of new products. I’ll definitely be ordering again!
We have ordered from Caliva a few times now. I absolutely love them!! Their website is easy to use, they have an amazing point system. Their delivery drivers are always so nice and professional. Kevin (I believe that is his name) is really professional and polite. I also love the deals they always have! But the best part, I CAN PAY ONLINE INSTEAD IF CASH!! I haven’t found many places that accept card for delivery. You guys rock!
