ERBA Markets Venice Weed Dispensary

This store is just like most others accept for 'I have NOT found a single reason to complain about." As a over 60 year old who understands the need of recreational to medical purposes, this store has captured my heart simply because they are knowledgeable of the products, security processing is trusted, and their servicing process is well managed. I like going to this location because I like the friendly people that work there and atmosphere. It almost makes me want to buy one of their shirts and advertise them as I go around the city. It's that neutral place where you can laugh and talk about up coming adventures while choosing the needs of each phase of travel. Mornings you want a pick me up, and afternoons you want to continue without burnout, and nighttime partying to an evening with that special someone can all be found in the products they sell. Some make you laugh, while others help you get the sleep you want. I highly recommend ERBA because they've earned my trust, their products are safe and sealed, and their integrity of pricing fairly has earned my top rating of "RATED #1" of all dispensaries in Los Angeles. They are located in Santa Monica off of 4200 Lincoln Blvd. You can get there by Santa Monica's "Metro Big Blue Bus #3." To make the point, I live a block from LAX and I travel all the way there just to shop at this store. There's plenty of dispensaries between here & there, but this is my store. Parking is NOT practical here, so I highly recommend the bus!! Stay safe, know your surroundings and stay informed with ERBA's website. – William E Bales

The selection's there… but the budtending is done by rando hypebeasts they snatched off the boardwalk. Zero knowledge of products, prices, deals, strains… It gets two stars instead of one because if you have the time and knowledge to sift through it yourself, they have a glut of inventory. Other places have inventory too tho, so go to other places. If you're still desperate enough to go, dress sexy cuz they don't have a number system. They say they'll call you up by name but they call names in order of which of our drivers license photos they find most attractive. They scan the room and say the name of the hot picture once they match it with the hot customer. Saw both the male and female budtenders choose their next customer in this way. An unenthused hypebeast finally had to call my name cuz I was the only remaining name. Instead he spent his time with me, flirting with the coworker behind him, ignoring my questions for the most part. I walked out of there with crappy Schwag in the end, on his recommendation. And yes, your state ID or drivers license is visible to every customer on every one of their dozen or so iPad cash registers that face customers so everyone can take a pic of random people's IDs. And you can also watch for yourself as looks are prioritized over arrival time. I went to this ERBA because I LOVE going to their other location on Pico and stupidly assumed all ERBA locations are created equal. They're not. Avoid the Venice ERBA location if you love weed. – Raz Mataz

Visiting from Jersey, stopped in twice and had a great experience both times. Their inventory manager Alex is the man, made sure to make me feel welcome to Dogtown. My new go to anytime I'm out on the West Coast! – Kyle Wilder

I came in with a friend a week ago. Very rude heavy guy at pickup. Didn't come out to help customers for at least 5 minutes while I was waiting and there was about 3 people ahead of me. He skipped many of us waiting and went straight to the young attractive woman who came in after I did and she only waited about 2 minutes. I saw him get in an argument with a guy who complained and gaslighted him and told him to calm down for making a valid point. You never tell customers to calm down especially when the person is calm. That's customer service 101, coming from a business owner. Is this sign of poor management or was he just having a bad day? – Janice Cohen
