Guidi Marcello Co.

Before you create your next cheese and charcuterie platter, you must try Guidi Marcello Co., an Italian import market tucked away in the industrial area of Santa Monica. Guidi's main business is wholesaling to many of the area's fine Italian restaurants, so you may recognize some of the products. This one-of-a-kind shop stocks a wide variety of packed olives, dried and frozen pastas, cheeses, cured meats and a wonderful array of wines. There is even a selection of unique European candies and chocolates that you may not find anywhere else in the area. One thing we always stock up on is Farchioni Extra Virgin Olive Oil - it’s great for everyday use as salad dressing and for cooking. Another thing we love about Guidi Marcello Co. is that it was pre-Eataly, and has no lines!
