El Recreo Meat Market

Great guacamole,Good pricing and really nice staff! If you're having a family gathering this is your spot for savory carne asada!

Best aguachiles I've ever had and I've tried plenty! I can see myself coming every Thursday for my fresh aguachile fix. They mix the ingredients to perfection with it being the perfect amount of spicyness. Can't wait to also try the short ribs w their secret marinade. Family owned business that takes great care of their customers. Great food and a convenience store all in one. Don't sleep on those aguachiles on Thursdays! So fresh and so clean. I want some more already!

I Love their Fresh ceviche, chilaquiles, tamales and meat market and the whole crew there

The marinated Rachera meat is fire!!! Also the fresh cheese is so delicious and fresh. Affordable prices and almost all the essentials you need. Canned food, pastas, veggies, fruits, ice! My go to spot for carne asada meat!!

Staff was super nice! The carne asada was $18/lb and while pretty tasty, definitely not worth just going to a taco truck and getting cooked asada. The pollo was ~$4/lb and probably decent value.The guacamole is extremely overrated. It was good, but there's a large amount of raw onion for absolutely no reason (other than maybe to act as a filler). Overall, the food is good. Service was good. Prices for carne asada are ridiculous and the guacamole has far too many onions.

The best market in La anything you need is here. All Hispanic/ Latino goods, beer, wine, chicharon freshly made daily, Guacamole, aguachile! Can't go wrong here ever, highly recommend and owned by an amazing family that are super helpful and caring. This market has been here for over 30 years family owned, keeping our Latino/Hispanic community connected

Came here to buy chicken n steak to grill and guacamole. Got a whole pineapple that super seeet. Everyone loved it. We'll be back often!

Forgot to get meat so I came here and picked up a 1.5lb of taco meat. The service was friendly and they also marinated the meat for me. I got some house guacamole and it was bomb, delish. Will come again for sure.

Stopped in for lunch last year when our car developed an issue on the way to Las Vegas. The Plato de Carnitas was amazing - I still dream about the onions and jalapeños. My friend had the taco pollo and the burrito carnitas- he loved both. The salsa was fresh and yummy, and I can't wait to go back this year to pick up some of their homemade tamales!

Best meat best tamales and salsa and guacamole.. love the vibes great Fridley customer service....mom and pop shop you gotta come here
