I absolutely love La Jolla Gourmet Meats. I visit San Diego once a year and stop in every time. It's one of my favorite parts of vacationing here. Excellent selection and everything I've had tasted amazing. The brats are always delicious and I especially love the marinated tri-tip. Wonderful owner. Wonderful experience every time.

Many fantastic experiences here. All meat is locally sourced, sustainably raised. They could tell me exactly which farm each product came from, and it was all from local sources. Meat has been all my father has wanted to eat while going through chemotherapy, and staff have been incredible with recommendations for bone broths and other selections. Best filet I’ve ever had, they even seasoned them perfectly before packaging. Well worth the cost if you can visit them.

Store clerk seemed dishonest. I got the feeling and when I got home and smelled it and saw how old the meat was.

This place is incredible. Excellent service and an awesome selection of meats. I ate steak on a regular basis growing up in Texas, but the prime dry aged ribeye that I purchased from here is the best steak that I have ever had. Better than a top tier steak house. I cannot wait to pick up some more!

I love Jeff and La Jolla Gourmet Meats. It's the best ground beef I've ever had. We had the most wonderful steaks for Christmas and get our bacon here weekly. Far and away the best place in town for quality meats. Thanks Jeff!

We have bought meat many times from La Jolla Gourmet Meats. It is uniformly excellent. It is expensive, but it is worth it. Highly recommend.

Originally from Minnesota and proud of our meat markets I’ve found the best here in La Jolla. First time visiting San Diego and on a scenic ocean adventure found this gem of a meat market and deli. The best pulled pork sandwich I ever eaten and I’ve enjoyed many in my 69 years.

Nice selection of top quality meats, bought a couple filet mignon. Jeff was very helpful and the filets turned out great for a special occasion.

This place was great! Jeff was accommodating, walking me through choices and then cutting me 4 rib eye steaks that were perfect. Be sure and get the marinated pollo asado for the grill! It rivaled the steaks and everyone loved all the choices. Add in there he has a pic of Steve Trachsel on the wall from his Mets days and it makes this place the perfect butcher shop!

I stopped by here after a delicious restaurant steak dinner the night before, in hunt of a couple of good steaks to grill while on vacation in La Jolla. Jeff gave me a personal recommendation, a couple of dry-aged t-bones that were absolutely delicious. He seasoned them for me, and gave me his business card, wanting to know how they tuned out. If I'm back in town one day I'll make sure to stop by again

I picked up the house-marinated tri-tip and it was easily the best-tasting and best-marinated tip I've ever had. Kudos to you, sir! I'll be back again for the homemade sausage!

This is the absolute best butcher shop I have been to in the SanDiego/La Jolla area. The service and the quality of their meats are par excellence. Definitely true gourmet.

Jeff is the best and is always willing to be helpful and offer suggestions and cooking tips if I ask for them! Amazing meat and I love the house made sausage too! And the salsa Verde marinated pork chops are heaven when I cook them in my air fryer! I hope he continues to get lots of business, I could see his meat and personality doing really well if he had a stand at the farmers market in town Sunday's!

Went in for the first time and I was impressed. The owner was at the counter and he was so nice and informative. You could tell he really cared about his meats and what he sold. Got the ready to eat ribs, after warming of course, and they were amazing! So tender!! Highly recommend this place if you want good California meats!
