“First time here but not my first time at a La Carniceria Meat Market. The service was smooth and fast and the establishment was very clean. The place is a bit expensive but you are buying good quality proteins and side items. Their salsa are really good as well including their spicy ones so I recommend getting some before leaving. The only difference between this one and the one I used to go in Bellflower is that this one doesn't have a produce section. I will definitely come back to this one again.”

“Everything I have had from TMC has been the best…I have been a regular here since the day they opened.
My go to is always the prime filet (which my boys really enjoy as well) but I change it up and go with the grass fed ribeyes, black opal wagyu, prime NY, porterhouse and once had one of the large tomahawk steaks.
My boys and I also love the filet burgers and TMC smokehouse burgers.
The staff is very knowledgeable and make great recommendations.
Here are some photos of what I have enjoyed…”
“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.”
“I’ve been going to them for years for them family packs which last me damn near two months. I saved a lot of food stamps. I’m in Wilmington trying to make my way there now to get a family meet pack”
“Excellent place to buy your meat if you're planning to have a party or a gathering. The meat is already marinated. I bought a little bit of everything to last me for the whole week. I found out about this place through family every time my daughter used to come over she would bring this amazing meat and we will have a barbecue I will ask her, Where this place is at. I visited a family member and I was around that area so I stopped and I'm so glad I did. Best meat.”
“Always the freshest chicken links and sausage ???! The owners are always polite and great..my father's been going their for years and turned me on and now I get all my chicken links from there and only here!!!”
“I’ve been coming here for a couple of years now and every single time I walk in there every single employee is so nice. The first couple of times I thought they were just having a really good day (since sadly you don’t see that level of customer service elsewhere) … every single time I step a foot in there, I feel so welcomed. Almost like a family feeling like they’ve known you for years. I was born and raised in Mexico and it gives you that feeling of being back home going to: “La tiendita de la esquina” it’s almost nostalgic. You can tell is a family runner business and they CARE a lot for their customers. Couldn’t recommend more ????”
“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”
“So I placed an order for pick up and my friend went to pick it up for me since I was sick. The order was sent over and done in a matter of minutes and he goes over to pick it up. Well he’s sitting there for longer than normal so I call and speak to Joel to find out what’s going on and he immediately gets working on it. I give him the order number and less than 10 minutes my friend is pulling up in my driveway order in trunk. Lol lol. I had accidentally put the order under his name since he was picking it up but Staters was on it and had him loaded up and back on the return trip home in a matter of seconds. Thank you Stater Bros. you guys and gals are truly the best and a huge shout out to Monica for shopping for me you got everything perfect. Thank you. No mistaking why I shop at Staters!!!”
“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.”
“Love this place. The owner and all of the staff are so nice. Glad we have a little gem like this in the neighborhood. The double meat breakfast bowl is my go-to.”
“Best meat in town.
Finally they have one close to us!
More locations before I had to drive to bellflower for my meat ?
Excellent customer service and very friendly staff
And the meat for your carne asada the best soft juicy and never dry , La Carniceria the best ?”

“This local butcher shop is small but mighty! Besides enjoying their beef/chicken asadas, I've really been blown away by their beef cuts. Fresh produce sometimes available such as avocados which were very good too! After reading reviews I will ask about getting a turkey for November this year. Price is fair for the high quality/service. Can't wait to grill up more stuff!!”
“We were greeted with kindness as soon as we walk through the doors. As first timers, they were happy to answer any questions we had!
This place the quality of their meats is top tier! They gave us extra sauce and meat.
This location the staff is kind and the meat quality is highly recommend.
GO HERE & NO PLACE ELSE!!!!”
“Outstanding meat quality. The Carne Asada without the pre marinated is great. No fat and I most definitely recommend this Butcher place. It is very expensive, I will pay it for the quality. The other places are very poor quality more quantity than quality.”
“I highly recommend this place for its fresh meat, top-tier seasoning, and friendly environment. The staff always greets you with a smile and a positive attitude.”
“Good hot food, burritos are my go to. Only difference is the burritos came with more ingredients like avocado, sour cream etc.. it also came with chips on the side.. now it's just a burrito with meat, cheese, rice, and beans, still good just not the same. Please bring back the side of chips and atleast the avocado in the burritos..”
“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.”
“Good carnitas and chicharron and the breakfast steak and egg is really good comes with beans and rice and hand made tortillas. And great pricing as well check this place out!”
“Everything is soooo delicious!
All of the seasoned meats have an authentic Oaxacan taste! Finger licking good! ?
Saturday & Sunday evenings they set up a stand outside and offer a wide range of different foods, from Tacos and quesadillas, to the Oaxacan signature dish “Tlayudas,” with your choice of meat. Pick 1, or like me, try all 4!!!
And can’t forget about the Oaxacan Horchata (not pictured) … or your green juice… because Balance! ???♀️”
“Great people deserve great recognition and my respect having all this needed for carne asada is like the best option for a guy like me don't need to send my people to get meat from one place and other things from another. (HEB) Here everything is better including the price .
Unlike other meat markets that require a youtuber for promotion (Cortez)
El paraíso is doing it by only offering good quality service and a smile I thank God for that keep up the good work and positive attitude the rest comes along”
“This place is the spot if you want higher end meat. It's small but they have some of the best steaks in the area.
My #1 go to spot when we want prime cuts of meat. 9.75 stars out of 10.”
“I love this place, I love this family!
The short ribs are amazing and grill up in a few minutes.
The Al Pastor is so tasty…I like to slow cook about 3 lbs in a cast iron pan for about 2 hours to caramelize to perfection and serve with all the yummy taco fixings, including the homemade salsa I buy here. I live in the South Bay and the drive is totally worth it every time!!!!!!!”
“Wonderful meat market !! ?
We've been going there since a little after they first opened, quality has not changed. Good prices for EXCELLENT quality meat, very well worth it. The people are friendly, and attentive.
It reminds me of an old school neighborhood butcher shop from when I was a kid ???”
“A neighborhood gem!
I enjoy shopping at the Stater Bros. on Whittier Blvd in West Whittier. Ever since they moved into the new location, the experience has been fantastic. The store is consistently spotless, bright, and incredibly well-organized, making it easy to find everything I need.
The real highlight, however, is their legendary meat department. The certified meat cutters are true professionals—always willing to offer a custom cut or seasoning advice—and the quality of their ribeyes and marinated meats is simply unmatched by other local chains. The produce section is equally impressive, always stocked with fresh, crisp fruits and vegetables.
Beyond the products, it’s the people that make this store special. The staff is genuinely friendly and helpful, giving the place a warm, community feel that you just don’t get at big-box stores. Whether I'm grabbing a quick dinner of their delicious Cleo & Leo fried chicken or doing a full week's grocery run, this Stater Bros. never disappoints. Highly recommended!”

“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.”
“Stater Bros in Norwalk is always clean, organized, and well-stocked. The staff is friendly and helpful, and checkout is usually quick and smooth. I appreciate the fresh produce and good meat selection — great quality at reasonable prices. Definitely my go-to grocery store!”
“I love everything about la venaditaaaa they have all I need and one of my favorite thing IS THE BBQ CHICKEN IS SO DELICIOUS ??? and very tasty ? and I really recommend the meat ?”
“The produce is great. So is their customer service. I have a allergy to Turkey and every time we go to the deli they have had no problem cleaning off the slicer to make sure there will be no issues. In fact one time one of the ladies recognized me and remembered. Before I got to order she double checking if I was the person who had the allergy. It felt great to know that they are taking note of that kind of issues. Today when I went it one of the cashiers not just remembered me but remembered my name.
Update: This place is fantastic.”
