La Michoacana Meat Market

Note: This is a review for the food court, not the grocery store itself.Their food court has some really affordable meal options, but overall the food was underwhelming. We wanted to get their $20 Fajita and Sausage family meal, but they didn't have that one available, so instead we got a the Pork Rib BBQ meal. The pork ribs were good in flavor, but were lukewarm and tasted like they had been left out for awhile. The bread, mashed potatoes, and corn we got with the meal was also cold. There was a slight miscommunication issue in which we wanted to get Mexican sodas but couldn't so we ended up getting Fanta instead. I also ordered a carnitas taco, but I think the carnitas was pretty bland and lacked much other seasoning to give the taco any flavor (I honestly prefer Chipotle's Carnitas). I'm giving 3 stars mainly because the cashier was very friendly and helpful, and also because I feel like I may have had a better experience if I was fluent in Spanish haha.

I liked this place. The meats are well priced and the pre seasoned meats are unmatched. Also hit up the Cafe and got some tacos. All I can say is WOOOOOW. The corn tortilla was fresh, warm and the meat fillings (the carnitas and pulled chicken) were so well seasoned. I hated the fact that the cashier only spoke Spanish though. But either way, we got through. Ive since been to another one on dairy Ashford or nearby. See separate review.Final grade: B+I intend to try as many locations as possible.

This is a good La Michoacana, but not one of my favorites, considering I've been to several all over the Houston areas. What I like about this place is that the grocery store is clean, the meat market guys are friendly and attentive, and I find what I need to at this place. The food here is also great and I would encourage anyone to get a taco here. Michoacana tacos are some of the best you'll ever have.My issues? Sometimes, the people working at the food counter are either super friendly (not a problem) or if you get a younger person or new person, they're less likely to want to help, clean the tables, etc. I've seen one girl get annoyed, because she had to move 2 feet to get me an orchata. Girl, give me the cup and I'll get myself my own orchata. Also, sometimes the orchata doesn't taste as good as it does in other locations, to the point I just don't like ordering it anymore. If they can make all the food servers and those at the check out lane more efficient, than this place is easily a four star, but because of those deficiencies, it's just an okay place for now.

I was pleasantly surprised with this meat market. It was clean and very well stocked. The produce was really nice and well priced. The butcher was nice and provided quick service. They have a wide variety of marinated meats. I walked by their prepared foods area and it was also very clean.I would definitely come back and grab some stuff for a bbq

I love coming here to buy meats. What I need is always in stock and is great quality. It's also cheaper than American markets as well. I love getting their marinated chicken to grill. Not everyone can speak English but usually there are customers that can help translate. Everyone has been really nice. My only complaint is that there's usually only one cashier. The lines can take a little longer since the people wanting to buy prepared foods at the cafe has to go through the same cashier line first as well.

Frequent shopper, always experienced rude service in meat department. They either do not acknowledge you and when they do, they expect you to come to them. Straw that broke the camel's back, my mother was buying poultry and saw that the bag was a little more than wanted. She asked if the worker could remove some, as he obliged. She then asked for out to be placed back. I know it seems annoying, but we are paying customers and she was not being rude about it. The worker blatantly told her "No, I can not do that", and proceeded to ring up the lbs of poultry. My mother feed up with the bad service from the past, informed him that she is paying customer and if she asks for something she should get it and he musty comply as he is the one assisting with the meat. He then proceeded to throw the chicken in the bag and threw the bag on the counter. Their service needs to improve. Wont be going back.Comprador frecuente, siempre experimentó un servicio grosero en el departamento de carnes. O bien no te reconocen y cuando lo hacen, esperan que vengas a ellos. Hoy mi madre estaba comprando carne de pollo y vio que la bolsa era un poco más de lo deseado. Preguntó si el trabajador podría eliminar algunos, y el lo hizo. Luego mi madre decidió que regresara el pollo sacado, pues decision q si era suficiente. Sé que parece molesto, pero le estamos pagando por un servicio y ella no estaba siendo grosera al respecto. El trabajador le dijo descaradamente "No, no puedo hacer eso", y procedió a marcar las libras de pollo. Mi madre, molesta con el mal servicio del pasado, le informa que le está pagando por un servicio y que si ella pide algo, debería conseguirlo y debe cumplirlo, ya que él es el que ayuda con la carne. Luego procedió a tirar el pollo en la bolsa y arrojó la bolsa sobre el mostrador. Su servicio necesita mejorar. No volveremos.

I love finding little specialty markets that marinade the meat and I can just buy (I know, I could marinade myself, but I like trying different styles/places). So found this place many years ago and am happy to finally give this place my review!Location: Avenue F & Main StreetParking: Free spots right in frontMeat Selection: Great. Lots of fresh meat. From the common to the less common ( tripe, tongue etc..) We got the Pork, Beef & Chicken. They were all very good, but my favorite was the chicken. This was Excellent for grilling. Other items: I also grabbed a container of their fresh salsa, fresh corn tortillas & avocados. Very Good.Price: This is Cheap! This store is my go-to place whenever anyone bring up the Idea of BBQ!They also have cheap produce and mexican good, like mexican candy! You know you grew up on mexican candy!!The small taqueria inside is also good! The barbacoa tacos are legit.Finally, CASH only.

Very rude meat server I'm black speak English but know a little spanish. I was looked over meat guy helped 1 customer why I waited. When he was done he went to cleaning and didn't serve me...new hispanic customer walks up he stops what he doing and helps her. I told customer and him I was first.. primo...then customer helped in explaining I was first. I'm never shopping there again. It feels bad to get treated this way.

Affordable meat...2lbs of pork chops $5 & 5lbs of pig feet $7 .... great place to get affordable meat. .
