Carniceria Sonora is a local Mexican grocery store that offers a fantastic selection of marinated meats and specialty items. Their standout dish is the amazing al pastor, which has been praised by customers as the best they've ever had, even after trying it throughout Mexico and the western United States. During the week, the store will also grill your meat for free while you wait or run errands. Beyond the meats, the store has a lot more to offer, including homemade guacamole, pico de gallo, and even shampoo made from items found in the store. Customers describe the staff as friendly, and the store as a great place to find all the ingredients needed for authentic Mexican meals, whether it's menudo or carne al pastor.
Stopped by to try the carne asada/ranchera (skirt steak). It was very flavorful and tender. Made great tacos! Going back to get more for a family cook out.

Meat was very good, selection was a little limited due to being sold out of a lot of opinions

A great little market with lots of products you can't find anywhere else in Montrose!
