El Camino Florist, Inc.

El Camino Florist sent the most beautiful flowers to one of my team members today! We work at a large company and the receptionist, who receives bouquets for employees every day, said that they were some of the most beautiful flowers she has seen cross her desk.
The staff member who took the order was kind, follow up was great, and they were delivered right on time. It made the persons last day happier! Thank you for your great work!

Nice job on table centerpieces they created though i hate carnations. I had wanted the typical centerpiece with the candle in the middle but was told it would be over my budget of 40 $. Walked in to pick up my 2 smaller arrangements and what did i see? The exact arrangement i had wanted and asked about for 39 $… Will not be going back.

This is my boyfriends go-​to florist and I’m so happy it is. Each time he purchases an arrangement for me, the bouquet is unique and truly fitting for the situation. This past weekend I was blown away by their service. El Camino Florist delivered a bouquet to my house ON my birthday. Unfortunately, I was on vacation — something I had not planned prior to my boyfriends deployment — and El Camino Florist called and texted me to tell me that they had delivered an arrangement to my house. I was so thankful! My mother was able to pick it up and I received it when I returned to San Diego.

THANK YOU MARY!!!
It’s so hard anymore to know what you’re getting when you order anything on line or over the phone!
I live in Cincinnati and had been to visit my son and his fiancé in San Diego recently.
Unilocal was extremely helpful in connecting me with Mary at El Camino Florists. They are a local, family owned shop.
Mary took the time to talk to me about what I wanted to send and why and simply said «If you trust me, I will make a beautiful arrangment.» So I did, and the results were stunning and I feel like I made a «phone friend»!
Thank you again, Mary!

Very friendly owner, it’s family owned which I think is fantastic. Flowers are fresh, smell great, and always beautiful looking.

As a small business owner myself, I make a point to support my fellow entrepreneurs. I needed flowers, I needed them delivered the same day, I needed them delivered to a special place. I called the night prior and left a message. My call was returned first thing in the morning, she walked me through the order, and SUCCESS! My wife loves me more. Thank you

Husband had special ordered Freesia for a flower arrangement for me because he knows I love how they smell. He had asked for pink or red freesia, but got white ones that didn’t even have any scent. The arrangement was pretty, but filled with small roses, and other flowers and was maybe 10% Freesia. The biggest downer was there was NO FRAGRANCE to the flowers! It was like buying cheap roses from Walmart! I don’t know what kind of moron florist thinks someone just wants boring white freesia that don’t smell in an arrangement when the things were SPECIAL ordered and they were told that’s why they were being ordered.
Also, several of the flowers were already wilting and the freesia only had about 2 – 3 blooms open, so I don’t know how they were stored prior to getting to the store, but less than a day after getting them, edges are already brown and unattractive and I’m unhappy I can’t plant (lol) my face in that bouquet and take a deep whiff of Freesia.
Luckily, we were able to return them, but if you’re looking for nice smelling arrangements, make sure the flowers smell when you pick them up if that’s what you’re looking for in an arrangement.

I sent someone a $ 55 vase of flowers and they charge $ 12 for delivery. For a total of $ 72 they received a bouquet I wouldn’t have paid more than $ 25 for at the grocery store. Come on, you’re a local florist, you have to step up your game. At least add a service like calling the sender to make sure they confirmed receipt and satisfaction or a discount on next purchase. Pretty flowers but disappointed.

I ordered flowers for the first time from El Camino Florists yesterday and was very pleased. The online ordering process was simple. I ordered the deluxe «cotton candy» arrangement. The bouquet arrived on time and looked EXACTLY as it did in the picture! I was very happy about this because I was really praying I wasn’t ordering from another «1−800-RIPOFF» company if you catch my drift. I had a very happy girlfriend at the end of the day, which also made me happy! (Happy + Happy = Return Customer) Thank you very much El Camino Florists for helping me put a smile on my sweetheart’s face on our 1^st year anniversary!

If you show a florist a picture and they say they can do it… you would trust that right?
Guess not. the flowers were NOTHING like the photo… we’re they pretty sure, but what I wanted? Not even close…
When we spoke we agreed that the arrangement would have 3 types of flowers. maybe she thought she was doing me a favor but there were 6 different types of flowers…
I had to hold back tears of anger and sadness when I picked them up…

The lady I spoke to on the phone was the sweetest! She helped me out with what I wanted, she was helpful with price and they delivered really fast! Great customer service!!!

Arrangement was nice but looked nothing like the photo which had a full lush bouquet. I wouldn’t paying extra to upgrade to premium as I paid $ 20 more thinking it would be worth it… not. For $ 73 with delivery I would have expected nicer, but was told by the lady when I called to question about if it was upgrade as it looked weak that a dozen roses is 60 bucks, I got 5 roses and 5 tulips and some carnations for $ 55 plus tax and shipping (73 total)…seems to me that 55 is close to 60 and I didn’t even get a dozen roses? At least fill with some other cheap flowers!!! Oh well next florist… though the lady was nice in the phone… nice it not what u paid for!!!

I placed a over the phone same-​day delivery and the owner was very helpful with the whole process. It was my first time ordering flowers for delivery from them and she was very patient with me. Since I’m based in NY I had asked her to email the receipt over to me which was no problem for her. I called in the next day to make sure that the flowers were delivered and it was delivered promptly by 2:20pm the same day I ordered it. Great customer service and beautiful arrangements. Definitely a recommendation in the Carlsbad, CA area.

The owner is such a sweetheart! I needed a last minute item for my sisters wedding and she totally helped me out. Found my go to coastal shop! Her shop is adorable too!

Chose this place because I firmly believe in supporting local businesses. My office is located in Sunnyvale, however we needed to send an arrangement to a collegue in Oceanside. Called and got an immediate pick-​up — that was amazing, no machine! Mary took my order quickly and professionally repeated the information to confirm accuracy. Just a few hours later we our collegue contacted us with such gratitude that it confirmed the selection Mary made was perfect.
I highly recommend this florist. In reading the negative review, well, we all have had a bad day.
Mary was polite, professional and got the job done. Mission accomplished! Thanks El Camino Florist!

Chose this place based on the positive Unilocal reviews– especially liked the one that mentioned how the florist sent her a pic of the arrangement so she could see it. Ordered flowers for stepmom’s birthday– $ 70 arrangement– she loves peach so I told the florist it had to be an all peach with a little white. Florist said she goes to the flower market everyday and wouldn’t have a problem getting peach flowers. I live in AZ so had to trust they would put together what I asked for; unfortunately stepmom said the whole thing was bright orange. Florist had asked for my email address and said she’d email me a receipt which I never got (although they did start spamming me with their newsletter so I know she got my email address right). Never got a picture of the arrangement from the florist either– wouldn’t say anyone went «above and beyond», would use a different florist next time!

Flower arrangement I ordered was AMAZING and even more extravagant than in the picture on their website. Delivery was very prompt and efficient. Also the lady I spoke to on the phone was so nice and went above and beyond and even texted a pic of the arrangement to me. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this florist.

WOW!!! I needed to get some flowers to my wife at work, and of course I needed them right now. After calling every florist in the area, along with the 1 – 800’s and .com’s, who said that tomorrow was the earliest they could deliver along with a high cost, I finally came to the last one on my list and called Mary of El Camino Florist at 2pm. She told me about a beautiful arrangement for a great price well below the others. Then I told her that I needed them delivered before 5pm. Unfortunately, her driver had just left for a delivery run. Mary called the driver from another phone while I was still on the line, asking for their return to the shop for one more delivery. What?!? Who does that? Mary does! My wife recieved her flowers and was calling me within an HOUR as her and the rest of her office were gushing about the BEAUTIFUL flowers, and pics of them began popping up all over social media. They were well worth the attention. Amazing! Mary and the rest of the El Camino Florist team went well above and beyong the call of traditional service and left me with an extremely happy wife. I will recomend them to anyone and everyone considering flowers for any occasion. Thank you so much Mary and Team.

El Camino Florist helped make my son’s 7^th bday perfect! We are in town from the San Francisco area for a bday weekend at Legoland. I called El Camino to arrange lots of balloons and a gift to be ready in our hotel room when we arrived. The woman I spoke with was so delightful, the prices were totally reasonable and everything arrived on time. The huge smile on my son’s face was priceless. Thanks!

I stopped in here to pick up some flowers for my wife on our 5^th anniversary and bought a dozen antique lavender roses which my wife loved. Today I picked up some beautiful pink flower arrangement just because I love her like I do.
El Camino florist is beautiful, clean and well decorated.
I intend to buy all my future arrangements here, I used to buy flowers at a supermarket but not after coming here. They are fresh and beautiful, the professionalism of the staff is beyond compare.
I love this place. :)
