“Customer service is an A plus. The store would welcome you regardless of your nationality. The store does have their con & pro though when it comes to price.”
“The meat here is well cut and fresh. The Wagyu tallow is fantastic and the service is the best. Highly recommend getting your korean BBQ meat here or steak. Solid butcher.”
“Earlier this month, I visited Meat & Vino for the first time and the quality is next level! Their seasoned wings are packed with flavor, their shrimp is fresh, the raw Denver cut steak…so tender and marbled and those Korean-style ribs, seriously addictive with that sweet-savory marinade vibe. Shoutout to Daniel Matheny from BYO Meat for the awesome free cooking experience he runs nearby on Saturdays! I brought my haul over, and Daniel worked his magic grilling and smoking everything to perfection. The wings came out crispy and juicy, the shrimp had that nice char, the Denver steak was melt-in-your-mouth, and the Korean ribs? Insanely delicious with that smoky edge. He really knows how to elevate top-notch meats like these, huge thanks for the delicious job and the fun community vibe! If you're in the area, definitely hit up Meat & Vino for premium cuts and follow @byomeat (or search BYO Meat) on Instagram to catch Daniel's schedule and learn more about his pop-ups.”
“Great quality meat and really fresh! The staff are friendly and always helpful with recommendations. I love that they have a good selection of cuts and the prices are fair.”
“Meat is the best, but their prices have been nothing but gone up.
They usually if not always have great avocados, for the huacamole, also their abandera red salsa is great. Not super hot just hot and great favor.”
“OMG!! SO FAR THE BEST CARNE AND CHICKEN WE HAVE TRIED SUNDAY WAS OUR FIRST TIME BUYING FROM HERE AND IT HAS BEEEN THE MOST TENDER JUICY MEAT. I WAS LAZY TO DRIVE 2O MIN BUT IT WAS WORTH IT. ILL DEFENTLY BE BACK.”
“One stop shop for everything Louisiana based products and chicken sausage is definitely something you cannot just get anywhere and other meats DD sausage but you definitely have to try I drive from Lancaster California to come here and it’s worth the drive you won’t be disappointed”
“Wow.. if your cooking Spanish tonight, this place has everything! I to get a couple slabs of Iberico but will be going back for the blood and rice sausage that I heard calling my name. It was my first time visiting today and it was super busy.
Liked packed busy. (appropriately)

“I love this place, good service, they are very attentive and professional, this is the place to to go and fet fresh meat and fresh carnitas made there on the weekend”
“First time coming here with my husband! We’ve lived in the area for a year now & are still choosing out which spots have the best meat… this place wins!!!
We bought meat for a carne asada, salsas that were made there, some chicharron con carne, pan Dulce, & coricos because I only ever get to eat them when my mom comes back from Sinaloa… wow bomb!!! Just walking in, you can see & SMELL that it’s clean & just the vibe in there is welcoming.
You know how some meat places stink? I know raw meat has a smell but some places just STINK. This place doesn’t!!!
We finally found THEE meat spot! ??”
“Great place to find Indian & Fijian grocery items. Family who runs it are friendly and always willing to assist. Awesome meat selection available too. I have been coming here for years…prices might be a little higher than place like Modesto & Sacramento but it’s LA.”

“I just stopped by on Google maps. Those reviews here who say Wilch Brothers Market had been here "forever", are true. I would ride my bike across the river from the Island to come here and read comic books while standing by the rack. That was in the early 1960's.”
“Good fresh meat, great customers service.. I would recommend them to everyone I know . Gotta check them out! And they cut the meat how u want it! Great butchers !!!”
“I have driven by this market for years But never stopped because it looked very unappealing due to the title MEAT. That word always stood out, and since I don’t eat meat, I never went in. Apparently, there are new owners, and while I don’t know how it was before, I decided to stop in because I needed cilantro, and now I noticed meat and vegetables. I don’t think I have ever been in a cleaner store. It was absolutely spotless. I’ve gone there twice now and it’s going to be go to place for produce. I was so impressed about everything, the prices are good. The produce quality is superior to the mainstream grocery stores. Yassir, the manager Is super friendly, above and beyond! The owner is lucky to have such a great employee to represent.
I didn’t try any of the homemade sorbet or ice cream, but I did take note. They had a professional juicer behind the counter so not only is it homemade, they use fresh juice to make it. I also purchased some fresh green salsa, which was out of this world. I’m so happy to have found this little market.”
“I love taking advantage of their rewards program to get a sandwich combo for $10.99.
They have a great selection of breads to choose from as well as sandwiches that are made to order.
I also took advantage of their turkey pot pie lunch special. What an excellent deal.”
“Let me say their service is amazing the ladies working there are super friendly and polite. The chickens are fresh and yes they ask you before you let them now if you want your chickens whole or cut. The store is clean and well kept.”
“This is a family owned business. They are all wonderful and sweet people. I have been coming to this market for about 8 years and they have always been very nice!”

“#DCGourmet passing through LBC. Was driving down East Anaheim street going to San Pedro, when all of a sudden was captivated by the allure of grill smoke in a parking lot. We decided to U-turn and see what it was all about, and oh, man were we amazed!
Very professional grilling was happening in front of the bodega and the adjacent tire shop. What was it? Golden chargrilled whole chicken, served with rice, beans, tortillas, all for about $16. Payment for the chicken is done inside the bodega, and the cashier gives you a receipt to give to the grill master.
Be prepared to wait a few minutes. They make sure to cook the sumptuous marinated chicken until cooked to perfection. While you’re there, take advantage of La Michoacána ice cream shop. There is even an incredible butcher section in the back with huge varieties of marinated asada meats, plain meats, Korean style kalbi short ribs, and much more. Super fresh, clean, neat and zero meat smells. The convenience store section is very clean and has a variety of household and grocery needs.
Come for the chicken, discover the rest. LBC delivered!”
“The store is good. I come here frequently. Don't recommend the pupusas they sale in the kitchen area. They're nasty. Besides that it's a friendly store.”
“This place is a place I've been coming to as a kid. So many memories and it's crazy some of the workers are still there after all these years. All the workers are nice and sometimes the cashiers will do small talk with you. It may be a small place but you can find good food there. You got to have the carnitas, so bomb. You'll find the price higher than a grocery store but I'm going to support this local business.”
“Customer service was exceptional! Monica the cashier is the best! She went above and beyond to make sure my experience was the best! As well as clean and organized store. 20 out of 10!?”
“I love their meat their prices are great and their freshly packed and what I love is that I can find the small turkey wings it's very hard to find small turkey wings..”
“Best produce & fruit at best price. Deli & smoked bbq counter excellent. Nice selection flowers not commonly found in grocery stores, especially orchids. International customers can find specialty foods, teas, yogurts here.”
“English: This place sells good quality meat and to the taste you want, you can also prepare it and even roast it if you want, yes it is a little more expensive but it is worth the money because it almost costs the same as the large and expensive brands. They only sell it how they want, believe me when I tell you that if you buy from here you will not return to where you bought before.English: This store might be small; However, the quality of the meat is better than most big supermarkets and they even prepare the meat and even cook it for you if you like, yes, this is a bit more pricey than the regular supermarket price but not by a lot, I have bought here for about a year and it is my go to for meat to bbq, give it a try and I am 100% that you will come back when you give it a try”
“I like the market/restaurant. I've been going here for a little over 5 years. The owner and staff are very nice. Prices are OK. Given current problems with inflation and supply shortages,they have as a good a selection as can be expected. I really like their freshly made tamales and flan. Both are very good. Their tamales are best in the morning. And I consider their flan to be the best I've ever had. They are especially kind and helpful to their disabled customers (of which I happen to be one) Again,I really like it and would happily recommend it.”

Or any other type of meat is here plus they have anything else for your barbecue or whatever else you need to cook your favorite food especially in our carne asada plus they have ! Carnitas , chicharones , plus everything else you need for you menudo !”
“Been coming here for about 25yrs now! And it never disappoints...Was referred by an ex coworker who grew up around the area. I've been told I am crazy to drive so far (32mls)...that I can get meat just as good nearby...Well I have tried other places & each time after being disappointed, I had to take that ride to Carson. Believe me, it's well worth it! Most times when I come during holiday weekends, I find others who come from far away cities as well...so I'm not the only one taking these drives. This past week I tried the shrimp only ceviche for the first time. Delicious!”
