I got here right at 7:00 a.m. when they opened on a Sunday morning. The clerk was outside cleaning and sweeping and the place was immaculate. He was friendly looked me in the face and said hi it was very warming to hear that so early! I came here for the menudo and tamales. They were both delicious! I would give this place 10 Stars if I could. I would have recommend this place to anybody please please try this small business and give them your patronage read more

Best menudo I have tried. Hidden gem. The carnitas that are mixta are so tasty. Very friendly service.

Another great local place for some really good menudo. Small operation in the back corner of the market. Note, it's all to go...and they take cash and zelle only...they definitely prefer cash. Support local businesses and grab some soul-warming menudo! read more

I really wanted to like the menudo from this place because I heard such good reviews from my community FB page. It had GREAT flavor but that's only because it was so so so fatty! There was so much fat floating at the top that I don't think they clean the meat AT ALL! I was disappointed and I won't be getting menudo from here anymore. read more

What a hidden little gem. Good Menudo is hard to find, and this little place is definitely a hidden secret. It's located in the back of a market, but the food is quality and fresh. Good prices too! Definitely a go-to on a weekend for Menudo! Two thumbs up! read more

I was craving some menudo and wanted to try a new place. For $8, they give a good size for several servings. It was not salty and the tripe and tendon meat was soft. They do give a good amount of chopped onions and cilantro, lemon wedges, chili flakes, and oregano. I had went to another restaurant down the street near Riverside dr. It's on B street. Small parking lot outside, there's some street parking. read more

I want to give this place a 4, but it really deserves a 3 due to dryness of the tamales and inconsistent food temperatures. I habe had two batches of tamales on two separate days. 4 varieties total. Chicken, Corn, Beef, Carnitas. I ordered my tamales the day before on my 2nd trip and was hoping for really fresh, hot tasting tamales. I heard they were the best tamales in town, but that didnt happen. My tamales were again cold and dried out, lacking moisture to the tamales. With that said, I dont know if youve ever eaten somewhere and you instantly got sick from eating the food. That has happened to me twice in my life and it happened here as well... :( I have been sick since last week rt after I ate the tamales... I am at the tail end of my illness now, but I believe it was food poisoning. With that said, I will only eat the menudo here and only after letting it come to a boil on the stove top in a reheat situation. The tamales would be a lot of work for me to resteam and even then they are already so dried out it may not be worth it. Were the flavors good? Yes. Were they authetic? Yes. Were the tamales the best flavor-wise? No. Quality wise? Not when served dried out. Maybe if I had them fresh out the pot I would agree w others, but that was not my personal experience. Was the salsa good? Excellent. Some of the best Ive tried Was the menudo good? Excellent. Some of the best Ive tried. Was the pork taco good? Once the best, the 2nd time cold, a different cut of the pork and dry. Was the asada burrito good? Lacked filling and again cold... So I don't know what you need to do to get fresh hot food here or when you need to go, but this is my honest review on several items after 2 visits. Will have to take a break from this place due to the illness acquired from here unfortunately. I would recommend only serving hot food or reheating their food at home just to be safe. read more

Went for the menudo, it was solid. You can bring your own pot or buy one of their pre-sized containers there. They have small medium and large. Large is a very nice sized bowl of Menudo. They have all sides, just ask. Will definitely be back again to enjoy. read more

It's a little hidden liquor store with a meat market in the back. Liquor store it's self is clean and has many option of drinks and snacks, I purchased 2 Mexican cokes adding up to $7.69 and be sure to bring cash unless you want to be charged a card fee of $1. Now for the meat market I pre-ordered 2 menudos for pick up over the phone. When I got there , there was a line of 3 people ahead of me and when I got to the front they told me I could have skipped the line since I ordered over the phone (ohh well) but I was given my food quickly and already packed . They do have different sizes, small menudo for $10, medium for $11 and large for $12 . I got mine both large and one with pata which I would assume was not extra charge since it still came out to $24 even (most places charge and extra $3 or more for pata). It is CASH ONLY for the meat market so be sure to bring cash or they do have an ATM machine which I'm sure charges extra. I removed one star due to the fact that when I got home it was almost lukewarm even though from the time I called to the time I got there it was only 5 minutes, so I did have to heat it up, but the flavor was on point, meat was perfectly cooked, and there was more meat than corn grain which if you like that this is the place for you. Usually at all the other places that sell menudo they give a few tortillas with the order and with my menudo I got nothing so I'm wondering if you have to add it on, it would of been nice if they had asked over the phone if we wanted some if it's not included. For the packaging of the menudo they do put Saran wrap and it comes with enough oregano with Chile, lemons, cilantro and onion (the cilantro and onion was mixed together in a bag). They didn't provide spoons so if you're not going home make sure you ask! I would come back to try their tamales and chicharrón though! read more

The menudo is always on point. Friendly service. The food is great. A local spot. .... read more

I moved into Chino about a month ago. After finally settling in, I had to find a great Menudo spot in my new community. So I turned to Yelp and began my research. Within a few minutes, after it's positive reviews outweighed it's negatives, I decided I would venture out into the crisp Sunday morning air. I parked outside the mini market and what was a soon- to-be Menudo Oasis for me. How local was this place? Only A whopping 3 minute drive from home. That's insignificant though, as I would now drive a great distance for this place. The service was fun and friendly. I felt like I was at my "tíos house" as I brought my empty pot to be filled with pure deliciousness. The servings are well portioned. The price is per cup, and the cup looked like it was 24-32 ounces. I made the tough decision to buy 3 servings since I have a family of 3 to feed at home. Cow's feet are another delicacy available upon request. I'm not too fond of them but they are there for those of you that are into that sort of thing. I also couldn't pass up on a dozen hand made tortillas for $4. Oregano, cilantro/white onion mix, red roasted dried peppers, and lime is included. I rarely carry cash and even more so during a pandemic. So when I asked the gentleman if he would take my payment there, he told me cash is better or he could take my watch. Just FYI, my watch didn't hold a high value. Just to think about it, he was never going to accept my payment. (Wow, what a fail). He handed me over a handwritten receipt and asked me to pay at the front. I will be back for more on a future Sunday. read more

Visited Chino Meat Market for the first time.... Basically because of the great reviews. I purchased 2 tamales and 1 Al Pastor Burrito . The burrito was good, a lot of beans and rice, the tamales I ate the following day at work. They were good, a little on the dry side, but yet tasty. Next time I will try the Menudo with a follow up Review. The folks behind the counter were pretty quick and friendly. read more

Chino Meat Market - Menudo with oregano - Meat Shops Near Me - Chino, California

New to the area and this hidden gem in the middle of dozens of Mexican places to eat is delicious and convenient. Chino Meat Market is both a mini mart with a meat market in back. They sell not only meat but, tamales, tacos and the best Menudo. Reminds me of the corner stores I grew up with. You can bring your own pot for the menudo or they have containers. I opted to pay for the fresh homemade tortillas instead of the store bought ones you get free with your menudo. Plus, the Oaxaca cheese. I was in heaven!! Oh, they also have killer chicharrones and Champurado. Can you tell I am a fan?? The best part, it's walking distance. The place only has one small bar height table. So, it is mainly a "To Go" place. read more

Chino Meat Market - Meat Shops Near Me - Chino, California

My husband buys menudo every weekend and is always in search for the best one . Well today looks like he finally found it . This little hole in the wall has excellent menudo . Coming from my husband that is the most Mexican man I know besides Vicente Fernandez (which i personally don't know ) its means a lot . Friendly staff except the guy at the entrance but he doesn't work in the food part of the store so it don't matter . The gentleman serving the food was super friendly and packed the food perfectly! Can't wait to try the birria ! read more

Chino Meat Market - Best menudo - Meat Shops Near Me - Chino, California

The menudo wasn't all that good. Wasn't cleaned good there were parts that were questionable and the worst part several tiny pieces of hair waste of money. read more

This menudo tastes like a homemade menudo that your mom makes!! Best menudo I've had in this area! Menudo was fresh, clean, and flavorful. They give you condiments like: lemon, chilis, oregano, and cilantro/onion. We also purchased some hand made corn tortillas which were also great. A large menudo cost $10 and a medium cost $9 (just go for the large). They give you an option of getting it with pata. The people there are friendly and funny. They wrapped everything very well so it doesn't spill. You can even take your own pot; they'll give extra broth if you do. This place has now become our go-to menudo spot. Glad we found it! read more

Went there to get some menudo. My mom loved it. We also purchased tamales, but those unfortunately were not made masa. They were made out of Maseca. Those I give them a rating of 3 stars. read more

Best menudo in the area!!! There is so much flavor in the soup, plenty of hominy and meat with each order. You can actually request more meat or hominy depending on your preference. Only available on weekends. Only thing I wish is that they would make Pozole more regularly read more

I had been looking for good tamales and menudo, and WOW the tamales and menudo was Delicious! Lots of meat in the tamales and the menudo was so tender and seasoned just right. They give you chopped celantro and onion, sliced lemons and a little seasoning of oregano and chili peppers. They only sell on Saturday's. I give this place a double . read more

I'm gonna have to agree with everyone that has left a review already. Menudo is delicious, you can tell it's not made out of the can for sure. Went in early at around 7:30am and was in and out with my pot of menudo. Good for take out, haven't had a chance to try the meats but the cook was talking about his tamales and how they were real good as well. I'm gonna have to come back and make sure i grab some champurrado, and tamales for the husband. Everything looks freshly made and they are real nice. As soon as I walked into the mini market you smell the freshly made chicharrones and carnitas. Also it's right in a corner of a neighborhood of houses so you wouldn't ever guess for a mini market to be there but it's there. read more

Great, Great, Great, did I mention great? I had probably the best burrito I ever had in my life, went back and tried their menudo which was just as delicious! They also have a wide variety of foods and I bet it's all just as good as what I've had. Highly recommend! read more

This place is definitely a hidden gem! I've tried almost everything they have and have not been disappointed. Their quessabirrias are a must try I have had some from other restaurants that I thought were good until I had these. They definitely set the bar high! read more

Food Rocks! The menudo is by far the best in the area. The place is hard to find and parking is not the best but definitely worth it.
