La Carniceria Meat Market

If you don't know this place has the best Carne Asada if Orange County by far. Thank me later.

La Carniceria Meat Market is overpriced and overhyped!I can get the same meat at Starter bros market for a fraction of the cost.Not impressed at all.They're just trying to be bougie but nothing about it is upscale to me.Just an overpriced meat market in my opinion.

Really good, clean spot to pick up meats, pre-marinated and all!SERVICETheir service is like Porto's. Multiple people taking individual orders and then you wait until you get to the register where someone is handling charging you. Pretty efficient. The gentleman helping me get my meat didn't speak much English, but it wasn't a problem because he had someone else us as well. PRICEI got 2 ribeye steaks and like 4 picanha steaks for only $45! That's actually really awesome! Great deals here!QUALITYEverything was clean cut, didn't look bad, and the pre-marinated meats were flying out because of how popular they are! Says something. I just wish they had a bit more variety when it came to their chicken.I'll definitely be returning when I need specialty cuts of meat.

Should've taken pics but I wasn't sure until after the "ribeye" I received here was cooked. TLDR; I believe I received a steak that was put together via meat glue to make a "prime ribeye steak". They didn't have a cut I was happy with so I asked if they could make a 2" steak with the uncut, larger piece in the display. The worker then went to the back for about 5 min, then came back.Initially i was happy with the thickness and marbling, but then i became suspicious by the markings on the steak. It had odd parts to it. No ribeye cap and main part, but almost looked like 4 sections. It wasn't until the steak was cooked, it was clear that meat glue was used. These 4 areas just fell apart from each other as I picked it up off the grill with tongs. It took no knife. Look, i bet their marinated cuts of asada and pollo are great, but do not come here for a steak.

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.

Clean inside and plenty of fresh cuts to choose from. The prices are reasonable and the product is worth the price. The sandwiches are really good too. Filled with meat and made perfectly!

One of the best places to get Mexican bbq in Orange County. Meat quality is excellent. I like the marinaded skirt steak (carne asada) and the al pastor (great flavor and slightly spicy).Very clean and modern. Usually there is a long line (people know it's good) so just know there is a wait to get your order.

AMAZING MEAT QUALITY AND SERVICE IS ALWAYS A+! They also have the best garlic salt so please make sure to grab one of those!!! So good on any of there steaks!

Best meat hands down! Unfortunately they do not pick up the phone , they always say to call in to avoid the long wait but they don't like to answer their phone. Overall meat is good quality and highly recommended just know you'll be there a while with all the long lines, plan accordingly.

Marinade on meat is the best.. Tasajo & Milanesa is a must try also try their hot sauces.
