19535 Nordhoff St Suite 35, Northridge“The SF valley lacks high end carnicerías. I also don't want to drive to the hood for carne for a good old bbq. La Carnicería was clean, great open CLEAN space and buzzin with people on a friday afternoon. Amazing cuts of red meats and chicken. Now you know it's a cardinal sin in a latino home to purchase Carne Preparada aka seasoned meat but we gave it a chance and loved it! Beer and lime juice is all they use. We purchased their meat seasoning and added at home. We are now regulars and highly recommend them .”
