They make their own tortillas and bake their own bread. they are both excellent. The meat quality here is outstanding. i always get their ranchera and costillas(prime) unmarinated because their meat quality is so good that it really only needs sea salt. I dont know what brand of beef they use for their prime short ribs but they tend to have much more marbling than other "prime" meat markets. but if you want premarinated meats, they are really good here too. they also have all the fancy wagyu beef cuts like ribeye, ranchera, tomahawks, picanha etc . Lastly, service is always top notch. If you are looking for a specific cut, just ask for it and they can cut it for you.

We found this market about 2 years ago and there is no other market that comes close to this one. Their tasajo meat is the best. Oh! This last time we were there we got 2 lbs of the marinated chicken and it was very good too. The people there are nice and friendly. They also have a kitchen and they sell tacos if you want to try their meat before buying some. They have music playing which makes the place enjoyable.

What's going on? Went there on Saturday and grabbed 5 lbs of ranchera prime. Something was off. It went from one of the best carnicerías to one of my least favorite. I ordered 5 lbs when I got home I realized it was a little bit of meat for 5 lbs. I grilled all the meat in the bag when I realized there was a whole lot of veggies in there. I weighed all the veggies that came along with the meat and it was about 1lb. You got to be kidding me. You charge $13 per lb and you gave me about 1 lb of veggies. Get out of here with this nonsense. The flavor wasn't there. The meat texture wasn't there anymore. Definitely not worth my time nor money. Would I give it another chance? Don't think so. Thanks for your time SGM.

High quality carne asada. Went for some at it was 14.99/lb which is the average for good meat. They have tomahawk and wagyu cuts as well. Their conchas are superb and not dry. They also have produce to make awesome guacamole OR you can buy some already made. They also have red and green sauce. This is the only stop you need to make for a great backyard bbq.
Tortas are bomb! Really friendly place to go for a quick bite to eat. Will be returning to try another item from the menu.

Taste is great quality is bad they need to put effort into the way they cut the meat because its so inconsistent there will be a really thick side of the asada and the other end will be super thin and the cook comes out bad because of the sub par knife skills im more disappointed in the costillas I purchased because there very expensive and all they gave me was bones with only a couple that had meat on them. My opinion would be save your money and go to La Carneceria they have multiple locations at least until SGM steps it up.

Best Ranchera meat, Tasajo, pollo & and prepared diced taco meat in town! Very tender & juicy! I like how they keep they pan dulce (Mexican sweet bread) in huge warmers were it keeps the bread warm, soft and ready to snack on with coffee or a ice cold glass of milk .The staff there are amazing and if you don't have cash on you they also take card .Also their asada burritos from their kitchen menu are one of a kind!!Only downfall is the meat prices, it's pretty up there $16 per pound for Ranchera so with that being said once in a while it's okay. Still giving 5 stars.

I've been coming to this meat market, ever since my favorite one closed in San Gabriel a few years back.. All my boxes checked off when it comes to their carne asada and taco meat: High quality meat, check. Best tasting marinade, check. Friendly service, check.. Their meats (flap and taco) are top notch quality and their marinade, in my opinion, is superior to others. It's always fresh.. Their service is great. Their marinaded chicken meat is very good and the price point on their chicken is much easier on the wallet. Also, they have a good variety of salsas in their fridge that are very tasty. The only negative and the reason I'm not giving them 5 stars is due to their price hikes during Holidays: Their prices appear to surge during: Mother's Day, Father's Day, 4th of July etc: At close to $16 a lb during these holiday weekends: I'd much rather get filet mignon at that price point- Just saying.
