"This longtime hangout for chefs is a great place to see a wide variety of specialty foods. Previously in Culver City, this new Mid-City location offers much of the same stuff, from sandwiches and cheese to jarred and pickled things." - Matthew Kang

"Good news for fans of home and commercial cooking equipment: Surfas is almost back. The 80-year-old retail store moved out of its Culver City location last year after the land was bought from underneath them, and for a time it was unclear just where the new store would end up. Now a tipster says it’s landing at Washington and Third Avenue in Arlington Heights, due east from their previous location. Signage is going up now and, per the company’s own Instagram account, store shelves are being stocked up fully. Surfas hasn’t confirmed the location publicly, but says they should be ready for an unveiling in the coming days. And don’t worry, there are plans to bring back the Surfas Cafe, complete with patio space and shade trees." - Farley Elliott

Wow, I wandered in on a local excursion (I wanted to see the house used for Six Feet Under, it’s just down the street) and saw this place. As a good writer and home cook/baker, I love a good kitchen supply store and Surfas was simply overwhelming in scope and product—so much for the professional food service and many items that are hard to find for bakers, cake makers, just so many tools. Not to mention an entire refrigerator case dedicated to butter. Came home with lots of fun ingredients and tools!

Pretty much a one stop shop for chefs and culinary enthusiasts! All sorts of equipment and a wide selection of fine foods and even a deli stop, the prices are over the top though!

My first visit was definitely overwhelming to the senses. I found items and products that I had not been able to locate at other businesses. Great place to supply my holiday charcuterie board.

My wife and I went here and loved it. The atmosphere and food service for sandwiches was fantastic. Definitely a good stock of supplies, seasonings and ingredients to cook those special dishes at home for family and friends. We will definitely be back!

If you are serious about food, cooking or baking Surfas is a must visit. They used to be located in Culver City at a( what seems to be) larger venue but recently moved to their current location which is in a somewhat seedy neighborhood. But I’m not complaining because they have some unique ingredients like their porcini powder which is a staple for any savory food I make. They also serve great prepared food that are very tasty but unfortunately a bit pricy. Parking is provided. Prices are on the high side.

I was underwhelmed by this place. I follow them on Instagram, and couldn’t wait to check it out. Prices are a bit high and the café was subpar. Ordered an egg, bacon, and cheese breakfast sandwich. Could’ve made it better myself. I’ve seen a greater variety of International products at other stores. Not impressed!

We love Surfas. Anyone who likes gourmet food will also love Surfas. When you walk in, it's a wonderland of "wow, I had no idea they made such a thing" and "I think I really need it". You can get discounted cambro containers at an extremely reasonable price all the way up to an authentic Dolce and Gabbana pannetone and black truffle microwaveable popcorn. I find their prices reasonable. I have no idea where else you can find a 3kg bag of valrhona chocolate just in time for the holidays, a 15" victorinox cake knife (one of the most brilliant inventions, go out and get yourself one now, they can cut through a pan de miche), a hand painted bottle of olive oil, and true dark chocolate covered English peppermint.
