First time in an Embarc shop and I really enjoyed the experience. They had a wide selection of products and good deals. I definitely recommend this spot.

I love the bodega-style setup here. You can grab a basket and actually walk around the store and shop, which makes the whole experience feel like a little neighborhood liquor store, but for cannabis 😂. It’s relaxed, easy, and way more fun than standing at a counter waiting to order. Their rewards system is freaking awesome. I rack up points fast, and I’m constantly getting free drinks with my rewards. That alone keeps me coming back. Definitely my favorite dispensary for the overall shopping experience. And then there are the Friday-only goodie bags! 😭🎁 These things are super limited, so if you catch them on Friday, it feels like you hit the little dispensary jackpot. I love that they give you another reason to stop by and make the experience feel more like a neighborhood spot with fun surprises. Embarc keeps me coming back, and I’m always looking forward to what they have going on next. Sincerely, your worst customer 😂 David Gaxiola Lopez

Taxed. Not worth it. They’ll give you %30 off but it isn’t really a discount lol
