Su Carniceria

Now that I have tasted a few different meats from their butchery, I am ready and willing to tell the world what my perception of Su Carniceria is. And it is all good.Walking in for the first time, I was surprised at how small the actual store is. There is the meat counter, a small refrigerated section for good looking, fresh produce, and a few metal rack shelves carrying dry goods and other essentials for a complete meal. The butcher does his magic in the back, behind a wall. But who can take their adoring eyes off the gorgeous prime grade meats that fill the case here. Moving several steps toward the back, the great selection of marinated beef and chicken thighs, the chicken al pastor, and 3 types of chorizo, from mild to melt-the-paint, spicy hot, caught my eye. The butcher explained that the marinated beef is the same quality as their beautifully marbled steaks, not the tough cuts like other stores. Yes!And the prices? Assume that prime ain't cheap. But honestly, comparing their prices with other local carnicerias offering the same prime grade, they seemed to be about equal, if not a little cheaper. The marinated meats are far more budget-friendly and in line with other local butcheries.So the final test was in the tasting, and *that* we did over the span of a few days. We stuck with the prepared meats, the chicken and beef, and frankly I was very impressed even though Mr. B chose to sear them on a griddle rather than take them outside to the bbq. Well, it *was* January after all. Both developed a lovely char, yet stayed very moist, and honestly evoked eye-rolling moans of delight. Far better, I thought, than my usual carniceria close by. As for the chorizo, mine (the mild version, of course) is still waiting in the freezer for it's day to shine, so no comment, yet.I am really looking forward to becoming a regular patron here, and I made sure my two adult children, who are both so lucky to live much closer than I, know of my stamp of approval.Turn on your GPS to find them. Their biggest misfortune is that they are hidden in a small strip mall with an unobstructed view of the eastbound 91 freeway, at the Pierce Street offramp. I think this is a great find!

The best of the best in the game by far! From the service to the quality of the meat and the marinade, oof!I've had other top quality meat markets but I always find myself coming back to Su Carnicería!

So delicious! The quality of meat is amazing. This place was recommended by a family friend and I must admit totally worth it. The drive here is 45-50 minutes but I will make it every time we need carne asada for a special occasion. The meat always tastes delicious. The employees are always friendly and there is never a long wait. I love that they have a section with products only available in Mexico. Very clean and they always good music to set the party mood.

Super clean shop. Lots of small groceries here too, snacks, candies, vegetables for cooking meat.

Amazing prime meat!!! Definitely our go-to every single time !! Customer service is 10/10!!!

The meat here is DELISH!! Got it for my husband's birthday party, everyone absolutely loved it! It's such a tiny space but the staff is quick to help and serve your meat in a tray if you prefer, which I did. I can't wait to go back, worth every penny! I failed to take a photo while grilling, next time for sure!

Best Carne Asada in Riverside, guys are always friendly and helpful with any questions that I have, the guacamole is also good., and let's not forget about their tortillas

Woah!!! Honestly the best ranchera I've had in a long time, the marinade is to die for and the quality of the meat is just Incredible literally melts in your mouth so soft. The short ribs were a first for me but definitely not the last time I'll be getting them! So much marbling and fat that makes them so juicy and tender the best meat I've gotten from any carneceria in the IE, they also have fresh produce, guac, salsas, and much more on deck for your carne asada!! such a welcoming staff we definitely found our new go to spot!!!

Amazing. First time trying this place. Normally go to La carneceria. But I found my new spot! SO TENDER!!! Great flavor. Good thickness on the cuts! Local Fireman I will recommend this to all my crew. Thank you!!!

Great quality meat.. highly recommended, great costumer service.. Best prices compare to different meat stores!!
