It feels good to help sustainable agriculture and small businesses. I travel a lot and it is all waiting for me in my freezer. When I get home, all I do is take out one of the delicious packages and let it thaw out and I have fresh servings ready to cook. Thanks, Keller, for putting great food on my family's table!

Their seasoned chicken is delicious as well. Reasonable prices considering the quality of what they offer. I'm not a rich man but can afford to treat myself when I feel the need.

Deli Only Review:…read more Finally got around to trying the deli for a sandwich after all these years and hearing all the good things about them. Previous attempts were met with 30-45min. wait times that a quick lunch break would never allow. This time, I got lucky with a quick in & out visit on a Friday during lunchtime. The store's an almost comical-surreal throwback to the old food co-op's from the 1970's (for all us grown folks that were part of that era). Like stepping back into a time machine. But, the wonderful smells from the deli hit me when I walked in, which was great and got the appetite juices flowing big time. A two meat cold cut sandwich w/ cheese will set you back $17, tax included. Which is about the ceiling of what I'm willing to pay currently for a similar take-out sandwich anyplace else. Adding that 2nd meat is what kicks the price up a few more bucks. A heated sandwich request adds .50c and extra meat is another $2 on top. Truth be told, most other deli's and sandwich shops have an equivalent option for slightly less $ it seems. Would be gravy if they threw in a can of generic soda pop (Shasta, Cragmont or the like) and maybe a mini bag of chips for this pricepoint, but whatever. Not a deal breaker. Sandwich was very good and they advertise using Boarhead brand meats. It's a winner, if not an everyday lunch option based on price. Check it.

I bookmarked this newish meat market about a year ago. They are deep in an industrial area of…read moreHayward. They are 100% halal, which is a huge draw for the big middle eastern population here in the East Bay. They have a livestock farm out in the central valley, so this is a very local (Californian) operation. Which was my initial draw for this place. The meat market is small but very well stocked. Maybe 3 large display coolers. One doing all poultry and the other 2 doing beef in several grades/breeds and lamb. Everything I perused over looked great and presented in a professional manner. Not cheap but I think it can be worth it if you are into quality and responsible sustainability. I've tried a couple of their steaks and also their beef hot links. I really liked the steaks as they are very beefy with a nice toothsome texture. The hot links were just meh, hot dog consistency but very firm and bouncy. Probably wouldn't get that again. But steaks, I will keep exploring their different cuts. But within this year of 2026 they also started to do an outdoor cooking station, to showcase some of their meat products. And the foodie influencers on socials are definitely showing this place off, which is a great thing for them, as they are harder to find. You order inside the meat market, pay, then bring your receipt to the outdoor cook. They have a few outdoor tables and chairs spread out but I saw several people eat right in their cars. The menu has burgers (maybe 2 levels of beef), cheesesteaks, chopped cheese sammies, tri tip, lamb chops and limited beef ribs. Most things are cooked on a propane blackstone which is a hot cast iron flat top grill. Smash Burger ($15/4*) At this price, comes with a bag of chips and a soda. Just a burger is $12. Quality patty, quite beefy texture which I liked. Wished it were seasoned a bit more as the beef flavor would get more amplified. There was a sauce that adds some flavor to the bites. Not a huge burger like you don't need 2 hands to eat this. Comes with lettuce and pickles, and they told me onions but I didn't really taste any. It was a decent burger but not a special one. In & Outs double is still my standard that I hold most burgers to, and In & Outs is still more satisfying (soul-wise) than this version. Lamb Chops ($28/4.5*) When I saw this on the menu, I had to try it. 3 nice sized chops. Much more meaty than most other chops as they leave a lot more of the meat/fat on the ribs, which I love. They season this with something more significant than the burgers. More of a spicy salt, which I actually loved. They sear it super aggressively on that flat top that it almost looks blackened. But when meat gets that seared and caramelized, it just intensifies the meat flavors. Definitely cooks past medium, but lamb chops are so fatty that it can take it. Came with some cheese toast that got too dark from the hot grill. I was able to eat 1 piece but the other piece was too burnt. Came with a nice scoop of mac salad. I ate one chop there with my burger as to taste it fresh right off the grill. It was pretty special. And the other 2 chops I had for dinner later that night with some freshly cooked sides, some steamed veggies and couscous. Very satisfying dinner, even though the chops were a bit drier than the first one I ate. Still repeat worthy. I'm gonna get some raw lamb chops from them again and cook it myself. Along with several of their steaks and beef cuts. I'm an avid cook and this is an awesome local resource for me. Throwing out the fiver for the exciting and delicious future I have ahead of me.

I stumbled upon this small meat market through Google search. I am really glad that we did because…read moretheir Halal meats are so fresh! As you walk in, you are welcomed by two butchers behind the counter. There are 3 glass counters that stored the following meat options: beef, lamb, Wagyu, and chicken. I decided to go with ribeye and I am so glad that I did! The steak was so tender. There was a slight taste of gamiest as you take your first bite. Manager hear me out first (lol). IT IS A GOOD THING! With most commercial beef that you buy at major grocery stores, the beef either has no natural flavor so you basically have to pour a huge bottle of A1 sauce! Not this one. I only flavored it with a tad of kosher salt and pepper. It was a hit at home! The ribeye was so tender and tasty! If you are in the area of Hayward and looking for some great meat, go check them out and let me know your experience there. I now know where to go pickup my holiday meats!
