Graze Craze Brings Charcuterie-style Celebrations to Downtown San Diego
Woman-owned franchise opens in Downtown San Diego, offering elevated versions of graze-style dining
Graze Craze®, the charcuterie brand known for helping people “Celebrate Everything,” has opened its newest location in The Presidio Shopping Center, conveniently located across from the University of San Diego at 5401 Linda Vista, Suite 407. The new shop creates handcrafted charcuterie boards and boxes featuring premium meats, cheeses, fresh fruits and vegetables, house-made dips and sweet treats – ideal for gatherings of all sizes, from corporate events and celebrations to gifting and everyday entertaining.
A Designer's Eye for Hospitality
The 1,100-square-foot store is owned by entrepreneur and interior designer Lisa Osborn, who brings more than 25 years of experience in sales, design and client service to her new venture. After helping clients create beautiful homes and spaces throughout her career, she was drawn to Graze Craze’s mission of turning eating into an experience through artfully crafted charcuterie boards and catering.

“I’ve always loved bringing people together, and some of life’s best conversations happen around the table,” Osborn said. “Graze Craze allows me to combine creativity, hospitality and community in a way that helps people celebrate life’s moments without the stress of planning and preparation. Every board is designed to create an experience that people can gather around and enjoy together.”
A longtime San Diego resident, Osborn lives with her husband and son. She is an active supporter of Scripps Ranch High School and other local community organizations and is a member of the North San Diego Chamber of Commerce and the American Society of Interior Designers (ASID).

Serving Downtown San Diego and Beyond
The new shop serves Downtown San Diego, Mission Hills, Hillcrest, Old Town, Point Loma, Ocean Beach, Bayside Village and surrounding communities, offering local catering and gifting solutions for businesses, schools, hospitals, nonprofits and residents. Graze Craze specializes in corporate catering, employee appreciation events, client gifting, networking functions, open houses, university events, healthcare celebrations and everyday entertaining.
Each Graze Craze board is prepared by trained Grazologists® who carefully pair premium ingredients for flavor, texture and visual appeal. Customers can choose from a variety of curated options, including:
- Classic – A signature assortment of cured meats, cheeses, fresh fruits, vegetables, crackers, and sweet accents
- Vegetarian – A vibrant vegetarian spread featuring seasonal produce and house-made dips
- Sweet – A dessert-inspired board with chocolates, cookies, fruit, and indulgent sweet dips
Boards and boxes are available in multiple sizes and include gluten free options.
"The Wine Pairing Board is one of my favorites," Osborn said. "That's the beauty of our boards — there's something for everyone. I gravitate toward the cheeses, fruits, and vegetables, while my husband and son go straight for the cured meats. It's the perfect board for our whole family."
