Some of the highest quality meat in k town; I really enjoy their pork belly and steaks. Service is top notch, always a treat to buy from this establishment. read more

Great customer service. Great meat options. Bought a half slab of pork belly and it cooked well.

This place has been my family's go-to for many, many years whenever we want to Korean BBQ at home. The quality of their ready-to-grill meats is superb and noticeably better than what you can find at your local Korean market. Some of our favorites here are the marinated and non marinated LA Galbi, the pork belly (they have several options, but we always go with the most premium), and the chadol brisket. read more

This is our new spot for KBBQ meats. This is our best friend during the pandemic when all our fave kbbq spots are closed. Forget about H-Mart, and whatever Korean market meats. THIS place has them all beat. We went in and the guy behind the counter was helpful. We knew we for sure wanted marinated short rib and pork belly, but couldn't decide on a third meat... we usually love brisket, but he recommended kkosal and we decided to give it a chance. Every single one of these meats were so fresh and high quality; tender and flavorful. I like it much better than all the kbbq we've had outside. This haul with about 5lbs of meat and some sides cost us ~$120, but lasted us through a few meals. This easily would have cost twice as much at a restaurant. Weird thing - we had a similar order twice and one time was $100 and the other, $120... not sure why the large discrepancy so just make sure you check everything adds up. Everything was melt in your mouth good... pork belly got nice and crispy with just the perfect layer of fat. Marinated short rib is my all time fave. Highly recommend. read more

Nice place, you can tell the guys care about the quality of their meat. Ordered some Kobe beef and some marinated ribs. Really good and fresh. read more

Wonderful pop and son duo! I'm picky about my meats and this shop covers my checklist of what I look for in a butchershop; variety, high quality and quick service. I like that the shop is smaller than usual meat shops because other ones stock random items. This one is strictly meat and meat related items. Prices are reasonable and you get what you pay for! See you soon! read more

The meats here are always good and the employees are always helpful! I got bored of the same cuts so I ask for recommendations and they're always so polite and recommend different varieties. I also like they have house made sauces and vegetables that go along with your home kbbq. The soy bean paste sauce goes great with the pork. The portions for the sauces and veggies are smaller and affordable so I don't have to worry about ingredients rotting in the fridge. Cannot recommend enough 10/10 read more

Forget ramen upgrades or hack videos. You wanna eat like the 1% do? Use the most ridiculously luxurious beef to adorn the Nongshim produced noodle squares. Mr. Choi (aka me) was hyped after the Parasite movie scene. Dang Asia's social media was lit with recipes already; I refuse to miss out on next level goodness any longer! Ktown here we go. Though it may appear CMM has two locations; they're independently operated and owned now. The loyalty stamp card is strictly for this location. I forgot the exact thresh hold; over several hundreds dollars and not all purchases qualify. Stamps do not rollover; so get that spending done in one calendar year. Need a shortcut? There are prepared offerings for sale too. I have shopped at every Asian meat department in LA proper; Choice cannot be beat. Don't begrudge the slight premium; I've tried alternatives and regretted it every time. Choice's offerings have that extra nom; worth! Beef: LA-kalbi. Bulgogi. Galbijim. Shabu shabu. They got you covered. I need to ask if they sell genuine Hanwoo beef. Also I've never seen shank in the case for Taiwanese braised dishes. I've tried the brisket; it's great too but Costco is an unbeatable value. Pork: They have ground fresh for me; not regularly stocked. Mostly I use the thin sliced for miso ginger pork (https://www.justonecookbook.com/miso-ginger-pork/) Croaker Fish (from Jeju): A real find! Super easy to grill / air fry; as it's already cleaned and salted. Deeerish. Oh and here's a recipe link (k-bapsang is my goto recipe site) https://www.koreanbapsang.com/jjapaguri-with-steak/ read more

Back again for their short ribs! No msg, perfectly flavored (if you hate sweet or overly sweet Galbi like most places do then you'll appreciate it here so much) read more

I'm a huge fan now. We were craving really good korean bbq and we decided to stop by Choice Meat Market and we got the best cut - if you know that best cut you know which one I'm talking about - it's the one where there's a square size bone and the meat rolls off of it and it's like buttery and tender. Okay enough, order now and you won't regret it. The butcher is super cool too, we waited for an hour so we got breakfast near by and he greeted us and apologized us for the wait. I posted the meat on IG and referred a few people. You are welcome! read more

I traveled from OC and visited here because I heard many compliments about this place. The owner was super kind and he beautifully packed two luxurious gifts!! Thumbs up! read more

I usually get their fresh cut oxtail bones to make my beef broth for many different type of soup and this time around for DDuck Guk for new year. Owner and the workers are very nice. If you want to become a regular customer ask for a point card. If you are tired eating Bulgogui at the restaurants yet don't want marinate by your own, their pre marinated beefs including Galbi are as close as home marinated. read more

Choice meat market has it all! Good quality meats & great customer service! I come here at least once a week to get my kbbq fix or some high quality pork belly for my stews. No matter what it is, Choice has the best of the best with VERY reasonable prices! Plus this is a family ran business and they're all so friendly! Love it here!!! And the meat Never disappointed me EVER!!! read more

We watched the Netflix documentary Korean Pork Belly Rhapsody and it had us craving for some good pork belly BBQ! Came here to pick some up and found a good variety of pork belly. We ended up buying a pack of Black Pig, Pork Jowl and Barley Pork belly to try. I like that they offer condiments and fresh veggies to purchase. The ajusshi said their top selling pork belly was the Barley pork belly and he was on the ball! We'll be back to get some more quality meat. read more

Top Notch meat! I've been ordering special cuts for about 2 years now and they have never failed out on me! The service is awesome! Always fresh & get lots of compliments!!! TRUST me on this place! read more

The day I found this place is the day my life changed. Run by an awesome Father/son team, they got ALL your favorite cuts of korean bbq so you can turn your back yard into gourmet all you can eat. read more

I called Choice Meat Market looking for oxtail for a Jamaican recipe. They were so nice and cut up the larger pieces so they'd be small for the recipe. Their oxtail was very fresh and they were very accommodating! read more

Great customer service. I came in to buy a small amount of galbi for a party. They had prepackaged 5 lb of galbi, but I just wanted 3 lb because I had ready 7 lbs at home. A Latino employee told me politely that they didn't have the amount I wanted. As I was about to leave the Latino employee went to grab his supervisor. A Korean man came out who I assume is the owner, and told me he would make me a 3 lb package right then and there. He inquired about what time I would be eating it, and told me to wait at least 3-4 hours so that the marinade could work. The galbi ended up being really good and my guests were happy. I really appreciate a business that goes out of their way to happily serve a customer even if that customer wasn't spending as much as another would. I'll definitely return here to purchase more meat for other parties. read more

Best meat in town. So if you are craving for a stay-at-home KbBQ fix, get your quality meats here. Staff are very friendly.

If one more person asks me how to make Korean BBQ just because I am Korean I am ready to kick their.....I mean point them to Choice Meat Market. No it's not a meat market like the clubs in K-town, it's a legit meat market that will have all sorts of cuts and meats used for Korean food (Of course since it's just meat, you can use it for other food and not just Korean...). I must admit, I was intimidated by this place the first few times, because all you see is a lot of meat, meat cutters and blood behind the meat fridges in the front (wow I used the word meat 4 times in the last sentence). Basically you will see a lot of things you should at a butcher. I think it's because my virginal eyes have only seen blood-less meat packaged nicely in styrofoam and saran wrap. Choice Meat gives you the option to get as much or as little as you need. They will custom the cuts the meat for you as well. The best part is that all their meat is the highest USDA grade (and yes 100% American Beef!). You will know this because the meat is stamped saying so as well. For those who ask me, "How do you make Korean BBQ?" I will point them to Choice Meats since they not only have a great selection of meat they also sell already marinated meats. read more

The selection was good and quality of meat was excellent. I bought some oxtail ($33-), bones ($10- depending on the lbs), and some pork belly ($15). Made oxtail soup with the bones and they were amazing. I felt like the pork belly was not as dry as the ones you purchase from the markets and was super fresh! It's definitely on the pricier side but will go back in the future! read more

I am originally from California, but due to the military lifestyle my family and I moved to Virginia, I go down to California about 4-5 times a year to visit family especially during the holidays and these meats are a hit during dinner parties! The LA Short Rib is marinated to perfection. I love the flavor when I grill it. I always buy from this store when I'm in town and I always take some to go to take back to VA. A cooler , some dry ice and the best meat what more can my husband ask for when I come back from Cali. I love this place! The owners are awesome and the workers are super friendly too. I can't wait to come back and live in Cali again so I can come back and be a regular again. read more

I was told to come buy from this store because of the exceptional customer service and the fact that I needed guidance .... and boy did they not disappoint! I was truly mesmerized how attentive and helpful they were ... Mr. Tam (the owner) was super nice and humble. Helped me every step of the way... I appreciated the help because I wanted to make sure that I went home and cooked the best of the best... I'm writing this and I'm transitioning into a food coma, I literally cannot wait to go again and purchase more meat. I wish I could've ate more, I thoroughly enjoyed it! Will be back... I can guarantee it! Thank you! read more

My go-to place when my mom tells me it's kbbq-at-home time. YES! The owners are super friendly and the meat is delicious! They always give me recommendations and throw in some extra meat "on the house" (well, I do spend a lotttt $$$) I always get the pork jowl, ggotsal, brisket and pork belly. Guys, those are the staple kbbq items! Get 'em!!! If you know kbbq is all about, ask for the chadol (brisket) sauce! They have extra essentials in a little fridge on the left. I usually pay a little over $100 after four meat choices, rice paper, veggies (the green onion/leek), and big chadol sauce = food coma x4 (four people). Pretty legit! read more

My first time at a local butcher. I bought a usda prime steak and some other delicious kbbq meats from them. The Korean meats were good. The steak was "pretty good" but given that I paid over $30 for the cut I expected some more quality marbling on the steak read more

Choice Meat Market has the best selection of meat. Everything was well marbled and many different options of cuts. I cook a lot and have experience buying fresh meat and these guys have the best. They even specially cut a double thick ribeye for us. Friendly service and open late. A+++++++ read more

usually get my shabushabu/sukiyaki meat here, whenever i have guests over for it. great quality meat for the right price. friendliest owner/staff. i just wish i can remember to buy all my other meat from here..... i sometimes go to the 3rd/western location, too but not sure if they're the same owners.. read more

Great Korean meats. Excellent quality and service and I often find myself getting good deals. Would highly recommend to anyone who needs a quick kbbq fix. read more

this is my go-to place for korean cuts of meat. it's great great quality, it's fresh, and if you go frequently enough they hook you up (you get a frequent buyer's card but on top of that they'll throw in a couple things if they know you). coming here is awesome cuz you can ask whatever questions about preparation as well since they know what they're talking about. if you don't have a local butcher, go to lindy and grundy's for organic/sustainable/high quality meats and come here for the korean cuts (can't vouch for how organic they are but it's better than supermarket quality for sure). read more
