"Great little shop! I purchased a brown chicken to make chicken soup the other day and it was amazing! Their organic eggs are great too"
"Good slabs of meat! Fresh cut T bones and porterhouse. Also picked up some beef ribs for next week that will be frozen. I really liked that he asked when we were planning on eating everything and he packed up my ribs so they will be fresh and delicious when we eat them next week"
"Sandwich shop, butcher shop/carniceria, purveyor of high end goods - this place is located in a strip mall off a busy street in Brea. An 'if you blink, you might miss it' type of place. Inside, it feels like a mom/ pop, family owned/operated type spot. It's clean and the folks here are friendly and helpful. The place is not large, but it has lots of quality, high end meats and a great selection relative to the size. If you want wagyu tomahawks, sausages, and even high quality burgers, etc,, they have all that here. I can't remember when or why exactly it was on my list/radar, but I think it had to be because of the sandwiches. There was a week where I had to go back and forth from City of Industry and Anaheim, so I thought it was a perfect chance to check this place out. I ordered the smoked wagyu pastrami, which is served on a toasted marbled rye bread with swiss cheese, mayo, and some pepperoncini. Not cheap, but didn't feel super expensive when thinking about what you got. It also comes with chips and a drink. This was an excellent sandwich. Great flavors and textures. Nice crunch with each bite. I would just note, however, that the meat was sliced thin side and it was layered vs. the thicker cut Jewish style deli pastrami. There are also other items for sale like salsas and tortillas. Just a really cool spot with great food and great people. I'm a big fan."
"This is our one stop shop for everything you need to make a complete organic, non-processed, clean family meal. We frequent sections several times a week. It feels good shopping at a local butcher and bringing home meat to be cooked the same evening. Customer service, in my opinion, is outstanding. What more can you ask for in a local specialty shop/butcher?!"
"Exceptional quality.Unbeatable prices.The best tasting beef Kufta (don't tell my mom!)I like knowing the meat is handled with a strong level of compassion.Plus I like supporting local small businesses and this one is worth my business.Lots of parking in front of the butcher.And they have my favorite cheeses too!My favorite dishes are made with meat from this butcher.So glad you guys are here!"
"I may have found my new favorite meat shop right here. This is my kind of shop. Strictly meats. Meat meat and more meat. All different types of cuts. Meat just hits differently here. I wish I had found them sooner. My eyes nearly popped out of my head. Who would of known meat can look that good. The cuts here are absolutely phenomenal. Especially the Tom Hawks. If I was brave enough, I would have picked one up. I did get 3 pounds of Asada Ranchera. Jesus, the manager, prepared my meat after I selected it. A lot of places have the meat already prepared. Not here, though. They add all the good stuff after you order it.The counter girl was very friendly. Jesus the manager and his crew run a great shop.I'm a fan."
"I've said this before but I'm hard on my city! I really do expect nothing but the best especially from new business.They definitely provided friendly service, it's clean, smaller than expected.Nothing is priced along the wall. Maybe I didn't look good enough but I picked up 3 different items nothing priced!The wall consists of hard chicharron, chamoy goodies, chips, tortillas...They had about 5-6 different choices, ceviche, shrimp. It not much of a variety.It is priceyyyyyyy! Whew! To each their own!I know everything is pricey! But yikes!I ordered 3 lbs of costillas priced $7.99 lbs.My costillas were already in bag when the girl switch the price and said "oh prices are wrong!".My costillas were $14.99 a pound!!Um nope! I'm sorry but I need that priced honored. It didn't happen.The lady in front of me was also lost in the confusion!! I just walked out! I'm sure the meat is good but so is other markets in the area.Probably won't return."
"They're the local distributor for brands like Niman Ranch. We got the Yakiniku Japanese BBQ pack and it was excellent. Very nice marbling. Some of the best I've had. Paired with our Snow Peak grill, we had great BBQ experience."
"Pros:- Their filet mignon burger, in the hands of the right cook (or brother who likes to cook) is a formidable alternative to any burger at a fancy restaurant, which would cost $20+- The staff are friendly and eager to share their knowledge. Seriously, they will spend ten minutes helping pick out just the right cheese to pair with your filet mignon burger- Bumping soundtrack of pop rock hits from the 90's and early 2000's- Impressive selection of drinks and snacks to go with your meatsCons:- Far, unless you live in Newport Coast- Parking in this center has gotten progressively more challenging over the years"
"Just Wow! Is the correct! Expression! Yes, prices have soured everywhere. What I apricate, the most was when everyone and their mother was hording the TP. Not one shop had legumes! Well, guess what? Nuno Bros Market had resources. You know why? because they monitored every single customer to assure they were only taking 2 items per family. Yup! that is how I scored Tp and legumes and other basic items. This is an old ma an pa operation. This is not a chain or it is not franchised so that being said. It is not fancy. The reason why I return to this little hole on the wall? Well, believe it or not it is due to certain authentic items such as 'Lirio" soup bars. Among other items that I am not going to bore you with. The meat dept is in my humble opinion over priced but then again it is the "convenience" they are charging. The customer service does not exist so do expect nothing per say special. The cashiers in my humble opinion are respectful but not driven to cater to no one. They do offer a ATM machine that comes in handy to pay your electrical bill in the corner of the shopping center. The shopping center is rundown but it offers an abundance of front face parking. No restrooms no wifi plastic is accepted English is Acceptable"
"Found this lovely gem of a place to buy some yummy steaks for my hubby for Valentine's Day! Was greeted by a nice gentleman who was welcoming and knew the different cuts of meat and suggested cuts that I should buy. I ended up buying the Australian ebony ribeye, Australian wagyu picanha and organic grass fed ribeye. All the meats were so good! We really enjoyed the picanha which I got on sale so that was a steal. Also bought flakey salt which I enjoyed with my steak too. All of the meats are of good quality and I thought that the price was fair. Definitely a great place to check out and it's clean and nice looking inside. Something you would expect the place to look like when you walk into a butcher shop. Thank you again to the gentlemen who helped me this past Monday 2/12! Will definitely be back!"

Delicious sandwich shop/butcher in an unassuming spot. High quality meats and cuts offered. Some marinated and ready for the grill and sides of mac salad, potato salad, and more ready for quick purchase. I love that they make the sandwich fresh on the spot when you order. They heap the toppings and toast it so you enjoy every bite.Knocked off a star for the price and not being able to customize orders. The price is high for a sandwich as others have mentioned. I get that some of the sandwiches use wagyu beef which is premium but even a turkey sandwich costs a lot here. Also, totally understand there are issues with allowing people to customize their orders all the time but if they're willing to pay extra, I don't see the issue. I wanted to sub the bread on one sandwich to the dutch crunch and was told they couldn't allow it even if I paid extra :(

Mom and pop shop that serves meat! They have different sections in the shop that provides rubs, and other small snacks to accompany your purchase. When it comes to the meats you can choose between the selection of beef and poultry. They serve beef bones and chicken feet for those of you who serve some of those complex dishes. I thought that was a nice addition to the variety of cuts they have here. Service is pretty fast and you can ever order hot food.

Came here New Years eve morning to buy Chicken Preparado aka Chicken Asada aka Marinated Chicken and street taco size corn tortillas. Met one of the owners Jorge, super nice and personable guy, great customer service and helpful. They have a great selection of meats, seafood, tortillas, beef jerky, bbq briquettes and more. The Chicken was fantastic and I will be returning for meat and seafood and bbq needs as needed. Per Jorge they hired their own scientist to make their spices and rubs to their specifications. In my opinion that's a win, it states that they go the extra mile to ensure the best flavors they personally provide from the refrigerator case or if you choose to buy it and add it yourself. They obviously know their stuff and take great pride and detail to offer the best and FRESHEST CUTS of meats and seafood around. The store is clean and very well lit and everything is well displayed. Really like the wall picture of the Chevy Impala Lowrider driving under the 5 points train track bridge - nice touch.

Susan Flores is the name you need to remember. Amazing service and extremely helpful. I have yet to work with other employees here however I'd imagine the service is outstanding since Susan has set bar. Mind you, I haven't met Susan, she has provided outstanding service via phone and email. Their quality of meats is already out of the question. What sets them apart is the service. Thank you Susan for reeling in another loyal client. Representatives like this are keepers.

"This spot is the best place to get all your meats ! First of all the customer service here is amazing with tons variety of meats and also other products like middle eastern spices, canned goods and alot more other products! This place is different than any other meat shops ive been to with amazing prices honestly!I highly recommend visiting this spot."
"The Carniceria Zaragoza's is a convenient and time-saving option for those who appreciate good quality, tasty Mexican cuisine without the long hours of preparation. One of the highlights of this product is its ready to eat feature. You have a well-prepared, savory carnitas entree ready to serve. This feature is perfect for those busy weekday dinners when you need a quick yet satisfying meal, or even for those spontaneous weekend get-togethers. The carnitas has the right balance of quantity and quality.The succulent, well-seasoned pork can be added to several different dishes, offering a flavorful protein addition to tacos, burritos, salads, or rice bowls. You can get creative with it and serve a gourmet Mexican spread right at home. It's also great for hosting, as its quick and easy preparation, combined with its crowd-pleasing flavor, makes it an ideal choice for gatherings with friends. Overall, the Carnitas is very very good. Would definitely go back and try the other meats."
"At Mario's Butcher Shop, the deli cases are filled with high-quality cuts of meat and gorgeous steaks. There's a fast moving line that leads to a sandwich counter. The great care and attention to the exceptional meats and fresh ingredients result in incredible sandwiches and burgers.Steak Sandwich: The baguette is a solid vehicle for the wonderful meat. The steak is medium rare (or however you like it) and coated with a zingy chimichurri sauce. The really fresh lettuce and tomatoes addcrisp bites between meaty chews. Rib Sandwich: This is an elevated rib sandwich. The pork rib meat is tender and tasty. The pickles and onions add acidity to the mix. And the sticky BBQ sauce sweetens the savory richness. Dining Area: There's a tiny patio area squeezed off to the side of the shop with about half a dozen little tables. You most likely have to take your sandwiches to go.Parking: The little lot is packed to the gills. Be patient and a spot will eventually open up."
"Great tacos!!! They make their own tortillas by hand so they taste homemade. Fresh food made daily here. Muy bueno."
"PROS: - If you want some of the best Mexican meats, THIS is the place to go. - Some of the best marinated carne asada for grilling here. - Employees are friendly and prompt. - You can also get all the essentials for making tacos. - Prices are decent. CONS: - Sometimes during peak holidays, there will be a line outside with patrons."
"My family bought meat from this location and let just say it's SUPERRR GOOD!! We decided to make Tomahawk steak for Christmas Eve and showed up to the location with little hopes of finding a full piece. But Marcelino assured my family that they did have it and brought it out. He was friendly to them and the service he provided was great. The store is big and has a lot of genuine products from Mexico, which is rare to see from many Mexican Markets. I had a small piece of the Tomahawk Steak to sample it before Christmas Eve and it was incredibly delicious. Overall, I'd say the prices are fair for what you are getting. I highly recommend going when you need some good quality meat. 10/10"
"OMG... The portions of meat they put in their tacos are just mountainous. Serously, if you want a good deal. This is the place.I ordered lengua and birria. The lengua is not something to be ordered again... The birria - Phe. Nom. Enal!"
"Always looking for great tasting carne asada as well as pollo. I found it!! This meat market is small and quaint. Very clean and the gentleman that helped us was very nice. We arrived close to closing so the carne asada was almost gone; but he made more for us. The meat was very tasty, both kind. It was a hit at our family bbq/get together. Very tender and seasoned just right. While waiting, he let us try his sweet bread which was tasty as well. The store is not big in the way of selection; but it carries just what a person needs to have a bbq with carne asada. We also purchased flour tortillas which felt and looked homemade. The guacamole, cilantro/onion, and salsa were also great.Definitely will be back to purchase more meat."
"It has been a while since I've written my last review, so here's one that I don't want to forget to write about!FMC is located on the border of Orange and Anaheim (think Bottle Logic Brewing) and is a small little meat company that serves a wide selection of meats. I have only gone here for the beef and man, the quality of the beef here is great! They only do prime grade beef (or better like wagyu!). The prices are reasonable, but keep an eye out on their social media to see what specials they have. Definitely take advantage of their specials because there's where you will get the best bang for your buck! Last time I went here, I grabbed a few boneless ribeyes at around $25 a pound. Not cheap, but man, those steaks came out excellent! Invited my parents over during Memorial Day and grilled these steaks. They came out juicy and delicious. Even my mom, who is not a meat eater, ate her steak and enjoyed every bite of it! I've had their Australian wagyu ribeyes, short ribs, and bone-in ribeye in the past. None of my times have ever disappointed me. I'll definitely be coming back in the near future!"
"I have to give this place a 5/5! Service was awesome, lots of salsa to choose from I got the green salsa, house special, and habanero which I loved! I ordered tasajo and they gave a piece of chicken to try out omg I'm def getting more next time! I was picking up my daughter from her best friends and had to stop and take meat back home to grill. They had a Lil produce but great salsa collection and meat. Lobster tails were huge. You can select marinade or non marinade. They play music which automatically puts me in a good mood. Ambiance is great due to the music being playing, thank you for the great service! And thank.you for the chicken it was delicious. Meat was so tender and full flavor, I highly recommend."
"My first time here but my coworkers have ordered here once. From a price point for what I would order, it's 15-20. The salmon was a nice portion, came with rice, I opted for salad and Mac salad. The salad was not my favorite but it was cabbage. I thought the salmon needed a little more favoring but they took the time to make it fresh. Service was not quick but it moved along. Staff was nice. I would give the place another chance if/when I buy lunch again."
"Nice little butcher shop. Plenty of options to choose from. I like how you can get your meat cut into chunks already prepped."
"Got a combo plate with wagyu and chicken. Very tasty and good amount of food for the price. Vegetables were fresh too."
"Hubby & I are KBBQ lovers ! We love it & sometimes we mix it up & cook at home - thinking we are saving money when in reality it costs about the same or if not more, since my husband eats a lot. H Mart was completely cleaned out of beef brisket for NYE. What to do ?? That's right, I remembered Prime Meat Market, a hole in the wall meat shop specializing in Korean meats! If you know, you know! Lucky me, they were open when I arrived. I was hoping to pick up fresh, not frozen meat. I wanted to get a variety, tongue, belly & brisket. I get in & asked the lady but she told me there was only frozen brisket available. Priced at $60, it was plenty of meat for 2 of us. I was a bit disappointed though - for that type of money I would expect better marbling in the meat. I bought the pack anyway & complimentary, you get stinky radish + your choice of white or green onion + sauce. Great !The meat was alright - definitely not as tasty as the meat I get at H Mart. I would love to try this place again, but hopefully when I go there will be more options available & not just frozen brisket :(."
"Butcher shop is excellent. Meat and seafood very good and butchers are friendly and knowledgeable.Deli is also good, food made when you order so you may have to wait while they prep it but well worth the wait."
"The staff at this establishment is not very welcoming or friendly. I stopped by looking for black seeds and curry leaves. I stood around awkwardly for a long time while the guy helped the other customers. He never acknowledged me or asked if I needed anything. I finally asked after a while if the store had the items I was looking for. He turns to me and says "No," then continues talking to the other customers and said nothing else to me. That was rude! I am never going back there again!"
"This place is expensive. But it's great. If you want the best beef, lamb, pork, or chicken, this is the place. It's not the place for bargains.The purveyors are pleasant, professional, and knowledgeable. People that come here are willing to pay for high quality. They have an amazing selection of seasonings, marinated meat and poultry, and cheese.It's an organized store. It's not hard to find things. It's a pretty modern feel. Its appearance is fine.But, the reason you come here is for the best. It's a 30-40 minute drive for me. I only come when I want a great cut or beef, lamb, kurobata pork, or jidori chicken."
