Mi Esperanza Meat Market

Review # 843Posted on 12.27.24I've been coming here for years now. I've tried a bunch of the meat places in Tracy now for about 7 years, this one to me is the best place to get chicken & carne asada to make your tacos at home for family, or parties. They've got a mini grocery store here, & then also a taqueria inside to get fresh food, then the meat market too. They're located directly downtown and are fast & quick with getting your stuff all prepped. I was just here about a week ago, place was packed a bit, but the line moves fast to get your meat to go. Highly recommend.

Had a few friends drop by to visit and went over to get some tacos. Market is very busy during the weekends as expected, but the staff did their best to push out orders as fast as they can with the people ordering at the store along with DoorDash orders. Great food as always, will return again!

I find everything I need for Spanish and Puerto Rican dishes and finally tired the meat there. Perfecto!The staff is very nice. Welcoming and smiles. It's a little compact market that is very organized. Street parking is a bit tough at times but there's a public parking lot two blocks away.

05/18/2023- Disappointed today.Ordered delivery today through DoirDash and only received 1 of 2 tamale dinners. It was even on the receipt taped to the bag that I ordered 2.Food that i did receive tasted good .

I've been here twice so far. They have a bunch of Latino food items. The Mexican chips are the cheapest here that I found. I like Mexican Cheeto balls and the Mexican Fritos but most places charge like $5-6 a bag. I have had their bread & it has been good both times. We were recommended to this place by my uncle. He said to try their fish tacos. We ordered fish tacos and shrimp tacos. I also ordered birria to go. Everything was very good. They also have fresh salsas & chilies packaged in a fridge for purchase. I bought the pico de gallo and the tomatillo chile and it was very good. Yes im lazy & I do not like to make my own pico de gallo or chilies. They were $3.99 each.

Door dashed a burrito. It was good in size. I ordered asada. It is the worst meat if you could call it meat. It was burnt. Hard dry and couldn't even chew it. Must of been the bottom of the pot. The burrito was very salty too. I did force it because it was $17 bucks to door dash. Very disappointed

So I've come here my whole life and until recently after hiring this new cashier I have never been so disrespected. The food is amazing (most of the time) but today this cashier, im not sure what her name is, but the way she talks to people, not just the way she talked to me and my family, was so uncalled for. We ordered food to eat there and they messed up three times and still proceeded to give us attitude after we kept asking her to fix our order. Then we went to order more stuff to go for family back at home and was so rude. The attitude she gave us just for wanting to order more stuff was ridiculous. Just wanted to say this because in all these years I've come here I have never been treated this way. If you're gonna have such attitude don't even work at a place that involves human interaction. Find a better cashier.

The burritos are great and the staff is friendly! I would recommend! The parking is sometimes crowded but still worth the time.

Very good food I love coming here. I tell everyone about it. It is my regular spot. Crispy fish tacos.

I have been coming to this place for years since I was a child but after this experience I will definitely reconsider where I purchase produce and food at. I went there with my mother and she asked for cash back. When we got home she realized that the cashier did not give her the cash.She called and the woman on the phone said she could come back and reclaim it if she had the receipt and proof. It is what she did. When we got back to the store the lady we spoke to on the phone was being disrespectful and said that the name on the receipt was not accurate to the person who was working the cash register at the time and refused to give us the $10 cash back. I understand that memory and money is important but the woman tending to our problem was UNPROFESSIONAL and DISRESPECTFUL. She essentially lied about there being proof despite us providing a receipt and refused to give us our cash.
