The Main Ingredient, Lutz FL

10 out of 10 stars.beautiful local shop with the friendliest staff and amazing selection. Go in for 1 item and end up leaving with bags full. Chloe and her coworker are more than accommodating and knowledgeable, especially when you don't know what you need at the moment. Highly recommend going out of your way to check it out, or swing by when you're in the area!

Amazing little shop! Homemade loose tea blends, fresh spices, dried fruits - every time I drop in for "just some tea, " I leave 45 minutes later with an armful of new goodies. New items all the time, helpful, friendly staff!

Great store! We were visiting Albuqueruque New Mexico and purchased all kinds of goodies. Mason gave us amazing customer service. We will be back next trip! Thank you!

They serve organic and fresh meals. Everything you'll need to go food shopping in one place. The staff is also very helpful and pleasant.

Super cute. Got a great gift. My kids loved the cocoa bombs and I'm in love with my new tea

Love the variety of spices, teas, and olive oil. I hope my family doesn’t see this review because those are all their Christmas presents. Our tour guide had great suggestions. And my fiancé was caught sampling spices lol. (Don’t worry, it was sanitary - just dumped the sample bottle without contact to the cap).

A must add to your daily lives place! The owner, Christina Sweet, is so knowledgeable about good health. I’d rather put good things into my body even if they taste bad then any medication. I send my clients at Florida Power Yoga to her daily to hell with issue using the many holistic things in her store. The number on thing I send people to her is for low iron. No one wants to take Iron pills that bind you up. She has Beet Powder that not only Beef’s up iron levels. It boosts vitality so why would you not want that over a pill. There are amazing teas, olive oils, gift baskets, natural protein powders and all sorts of things we need to stay healthy. Prevention trumps cure all the time.

Definitely a favorite! Love it! Oils, vinegar s, spices, teas. Sriracha mango balsamic vinegar. Amazing!

Absolutely charming! This little hidden gem of a specialty shop has SO many varieties of teas (also oils, balsamic vinegars, spices, sauces, flours, more.) in such an inviting and interesting place.

First time there and it won't be the last! Chloe was there and was so helpful and provided me with loads of information about the delicious balsamics and homemade seasonings. I purchased the Summer Loving tea and did a cold brew. It was the BEST.

Great local shop with lots of cooking related stuff. Not kitchen stuff, no pots and pans and specialty gadgets. Alot of flavored olive oils, flavored balsamic vinegar, custom blended spices, coffee, flour, nuts, year, and on and on. Very helpful staff. Super friendly. Highly recommend a stop in here.

What a nice surprise in "Downtown Land O Lakes. " ;-) It is a very nice store, and well displayed inside. Loved the beef jerky! I got the teriyaki flavor. I make my own beef jerky often, this stuff was as great as my own and no hassle! Reasonably priced. The young sales associate was very polite, knowledgeable, and made great suggestions. Listen to her! She's great. She suggested some Olive oil with Myers lemon for salads, my wife and I loved it! Oh, they have all kinds of coffee, teas, and spices. If you are into that. Finally, PICKLES! Fresh, local, awesome flavors. Every time I get a pizza next door, i'll stop into the Main Ingredient and get a few things. I wish you well! Live long and Prosper! PMarian

Super helpful employee, very nice and helped me navigate the store. Everything smelled fantastic, and their tea is amazing. I definitely plan on going back again!

Great customer service. I've been there two times and each time the staff has been very welcoming and helpful. There are many different teas, seasonings, oils, and more to purchase. They also have samples to try before you buy.

Today I went with my best friend for a quick stop at this location and we ended up spending over an hour here. The girl they had working was so nice and helpful and super knowledgeable on all of the products! We will be absolutely returning!

At first we thought The Main Ingredient was a restaurant, luckily, they put signs out explaining what they sell. We love the teas and spices. Prices are fair for a specialty store.

The customer appreciation in this store is amazing. Everyone says hello even if you're not even looking up. Any item you asked for they walk you to.

Absolutely amazing went in with my mom and got helped by the nicest lady who said that I should probably cut down on the sugar in black tea to help with migraines.

Would rate 20/10 if I could

A wide variety of products (teas, herbs, coffee) and the staff is super friendly! While I got several things at the store, my highlight purchase was their chocaholic smoothie which was delicious. I will definitely be back and bring my own container to refill my own olive oil

Don’t leave without trying the bourbon balsamic and the apple pie tea. The different teas are awesome and so is the CBD oil! Best oil hands down.
