Tell the guys who prepare the meat to take it easy on the salt! Especially for how much they cost. The "agujas" were almost inedible.

Food quality - diesmillo was good, tender and well seasoned, chicken breast were over seasoned Service- cashiers have manners, the butchers not so much. Positive notes; quick service, parking available, lots of other great items such as salsas, nopales, produce and other miscellaneous items. read more

It's been my go to Carniceria I always pick up some Novillo, today I drove there & it wasn't packed. As the carnicero was marinated the meat he kept coughing on the meat he wouldn't turn around and cover his mouth proceed to give it to me. As I'm checking out I told the cashier what he just did and she asked if I wanted to get a new batch and I said yes. I didn't want to have a conversation with the carnicero after mind you he was an older man. I know the other carniceros are fast & clean. read more

It's over an hour drive to get here but the Ranchera itself is definitely worth it! I always order ahead, Mary is usually the one I place my orders with and they're always ready by the time I get there. Staff here is super chill. read more

I've been coming here for years and finally noticed yesterday that their "marinade" is Sunny delight lol it's still good cuts of meats and well it tastes good, so keep at it. Always gets it "por la maquina" through the machine to get whatever cut you get tenderized. Meat is expensive everywhere you go buy here it's like $3/lb more than other places. Is it worth it? Yeah. Is the line worth it too, not really lol I go when they open or an hour before they close to avoids the crowds around holidays/wkends. There's not much else to buy here besides a few vegetables, snacks, drinks and paletas. read more

Carne asada preparada and chicken preparada for grilling is amazing and there is no need to ever go anywhere else.

Ojo. Ya no parece Carneceria los weyes se le llevan como marias platicando en de vece de hacer las cosas bien. Ya es la quinta vez que me dan la carne bien seca no preparada como antes. Wachen nomas. Y eso que agarro la más cara read more

Dos Toros Carniceria - Valen vrga - Grocery Near Me - Huntington Park, California

This is the place to come get the best marinated meats in this area! Sunny D, onion, cilantro, seasoning...must try!

The only reason I'm giving this carniceria 3 stars and not 2 is because the staff here are always attentive, the beer is ICE COLD AND it's my go to for marinated wings & costillitas are very good! The costillas are juicy, tender & full of flavor, but no matter what the response to this review may be the quality on their ranchera has definitely changed and IT IS NOT THE SAME from a couple of years ago. The ranchera still has its flavorful unique marinade but not as tender as it used to its very dry. There's been a few times in the past that I've gotten the asada and the butchers claim the machine to tenderize is not working which was ok only to cook the meat at it's as chewy as Diesmillo so I never buy it here anymore it's been 7+years. So as a customer to avoid any conflicts or complaints leading to arguments with staff? For years I've gone to another carniceria exclusively for the Ranchera... im only a customer here because I'm a fan of the alitas y costillas (they are not your typical small wings these are nice size birdies) Again the staff is very welcoming and feels homey walking in they have a little bit of everything! They make great smoky flavored green and red salsa they are definitely a hit! read more

Best meat in all of Los Angeles. I've been coming here since I was a teen. Picking up carne asada and taking it to beach bbqs with friends and family. Everyone will ask you where you bought it. So juicy and tender. A+ read more

The meat is the best in the area ! The way they prepare the meat it taste and smells amazing

This should be 0 but unfortunately I can't because it won't let me. I went to buy meat today because I got out of work late I always come here to get meat but I seen a horrific scene with a customer and the employee of the carnicería seem like the lady was upset because the meat was bad and she wanted to exchange it and they refused .They where so mean and unprofessional. now the lady spend her money here and didn't get her meat or money back . Once I seen that the lady say the meat was bad I decided to leave and went to a more friendly environment to la carnicería on Long Beach i don't think I'll be back here. We are in the middle of a pandemic so people can't be treated like this after spending their money . read more

Been going here for years, but will never return. Bought a few pounds of ranchera got home was about to cook. When I opened the tray the meat smelled bad. I called them to explain, spoke with the butcher Ruben after him giving me a hard time and was so rude. He finally agreed to exchange the meat. However when I arrived he refused to exchange the meat. After arguing a few minutes I decided to leave, they kept the stinky meat. Be careful they might sell it to you tomorrow read more

The best Carne Asada and costillas de res in town! Buy it "preparada". I have come to realize that the meat grabs more flavor in the bag vs. the tray. read more

My sister told me about this place and has bought and taken meat in gatherings. So hubby and I decided to go and buy some for our selves. I mean seriously...you get what you pay for. The meat was delicious. We got seasoned chicken breast and novillo. I mean it was about 9.99 a pound but every piece of meat was well worth it. I wouldn't mind driving to this place for my grilling needs. Its funny how someone they were loyal customers but are commenting about the prices. read more

Dos Toros Carniceria - Pricey but worth it. - Grocery Near Me - Huntington Park, California

Perfect meat for carne asada and also the prepared chicken . The meat it's soft and tender and the chicken it's so tasty

If you are from the area and you don't get your carne asada meat from Dos Toros, then I need to check your hood credentials. I will wait an hour to get this carne preparada. The boneless chicken thighs preparada is also good. If you want your BBQ to be a hit, you have to get your meat and chicken from here! read more

I went this past saturday for the first time they have thier own parking lot not to be confused with the mcdonalds one lol, Upon entering there was a line of about 6 ppl ahead of me but it went by pretty fast. I ordered two pounds of the ranchera de vaquilla, so apparently about 3 pcs come in a pound, so the guy explained to me what the difference was between the vaquilla and novillo basically one is softer than the other so he prepped it and we were on our way. Got home cooked it and to be truthfully honest I have tasted better meat I expected more flavor but in the end it was all just the hype. Personally I will not be going back It was ok dont get me wrong, being that it was almost $9 the pound it tasted basic Ive had better for less. read more

This Carniceria is a gem! Truly amazing quality of meat, always consistent with that. They season their meat unlike any other Carniceria. I have had some of the most delicious meals thanks to this place. I usually get carne ranchera always prepared. The carne asada picada is good for tacos as well as their pastor. The ajugas are definitely worth trying too. The people who work there are very kind and courteous. read more

Honestly one of the best tasting asad out there. We get it at my work all the time and the trays with the onion and cilantro are perfect for carne asada weekends! Super tender! It's pretty much all in buy here asada chicken and ribs all top. read more

I use to live in the area and that's how i found this place, i now live in pomona and i drive here to get my Asada cuz they have one of the best I've tasted, im picky with my Asada. read more

Dos Toros Carniceria - customers in a store - Grocery Near Me - Huntington Park, California

I normally buy meat for a carne asada without marinating, but after having bought the meat from here after a friend's suggestion, I am hooked! They use Sunny D, which I thought was a bit weird, but it really does give the meat a good flavor. The butcher counter is also very clean and has a great selection of beef, pork, poultry and even goat. read more

Without a doubt the best ranchera and chicken in So Cal. I've bet nearly all of my friends, family and co-workers of this fact and, when put to the test, they always agree with me. Been going here for over 10 years now. The secret is, in my opinion, the following: quality of meat/cut, seasoning, and tenderizing of meat. Many meat markets fail in doing the latter, which makes this cut of meat thicker and it will not tear apart like Dos Toros ranchera does. The meat is always stripped of all of the fatty parts (can't stand when butchers get lazy in this area). Their seasoning is also the best I have tasted (the Sunny D is the trick as it helps tenderize the meat further with the OJ's acidity level). I drive nearly 40 miles (each way) just to pick-up this meat, passing up 30-40 other shops. Anytime we're hosting a sporting event or going camping, these guys always deliver. I recommend calling in your order at least 3-4 hours prior to your pick-up (more if ordering over 15 lbs). Otherwise, you will be in line for some time. They should seriously expand into other areas as people are missing out. Finally, my tip on how to order the meat (ranchera): preparada (seasoned), por la maquina (tenderized), en charola (in a foil pan). No need to order too early as other reviewers have stated unless you plan to cook immediately. Also, as you're grilling, remove the cilantro as it releases a not so pleasant smell when it burns (good to season in it, not to cook in). The chicken is also delicious. Order it prepared and in a bag. Obviously, no tenderizing on this meat. Oh, and don't forget the salsa that they make on site: it's the container labelled, "ahumada" or smoked. This green salsa has been a huge hit at every party! One final tip: have all of your meats wrapped in the large plastic bag or foil pan (charcoal) and bring a cooler to transport if you're driving more than 15 minutes away. When preparing to put on grill, allow 10-15 minutes for the meat to bring itself to room temperature for an even better grilling experience. read more

I'm going to miss this freaking place, I'll be moving away from LA to North Fontana this month and today (4th of July) makes me sit back and wonder how the hell will I find comparable carne Asada?? I've tried so many different places and nothing, I mean nothing tops this place. FYI They prepare it for you (just ask) and accept phone orders. Phone orders are permitted with a $50 minimum. With a phone order you're in and out when picking up the meat since you tell them when you're coming by, and they'll have it ready! (Skip the line) While at this market you need to try their homemade burnt green chili, this chili combined with the carneasada in a taco is AMAZING. As for folks who are wondering what it's like without a phone order? It can be similar to a DMV (you peel a number from the machine) and "wait" though at times without a phone order you're in and out. Don't expect them not to be busy as hell during holidays, so play your cards right. This place is not only a meat market, it's also a mini grocery store, so when you think of "bbq" this is your one stop shop. So if you're looking for badass fresh well tasting carneasada, this is the spot. read more

The best carne asada! I had been telling a few people at my work in Orange County that they were not ready for carne from dos toros. They brushed it off like I was exaggerating. I brought some in once and they all agreed. They still are talking about how good it was. read more

Best spot I've found in Southern Cali yet! This place isn't the easiest to get to but I'll make the hour trek just for their carne asada (preparada a maquina). They're chicken is good too, way thinner than most meat markets so it cooks fast. The Carne is usually $5 - $6 per pound, slightly more than other places but well worth it. TIP: Call your order well in advance for quick pick up and no waiting in line! read more

I don't understand what the hype is about. I was really excited to try the meat from this place after reading all the 5 star reviews. It really was nothing special, it wasn't bad but definitely not worth the drive or the price. I also bought the fresh salsa (extra hot) and though it was hot it lacked flavor. read more

I been coming here since I can remember. I am talking 20 plus years. Meat has always been bomb. Chicken is bomb too. Short ribs are the shit too the meat falls of the bomb. Chorizo Salvadoreño is also very tasty. This is usually what I get when I come here and I must say it's the best tasting meats I have ever tasted. No other spot comes close. I can buy ranchera no where else but here. The marinate is the shit the sunny d is a brilliant idea. I Always Bring Dos Toros For bbqs And Everybody Always Agrees That Its The Best Meat They Have tasted. Meat is expensive like 9 to 10 bucks a pound but it's well worth it. U will not regret it unless u rolling on a super budget then maybe u should stick to food4less across the street read more

Started coming here since last year. This changed my life to be honest. I do not go to any other place but here when I want to cook some meat. The butchers are awesome guys, all of them very knowledgeable and friendly. The novillo and vaquilla are to die for. The costillitas are as well. The chorizo is spectacular. To top it all off they prepare your meat there and they hook you up with a tray and wrap it up with plastic just ready to rock n roll. I never say where I get my meat from though lol. I just say its the spot. El que sabe sabe read more

Best asada around!!!! I've strayed once but never again. Its a little pricey but most definitely worth every penny. Meat is fresh, tender and full of flavor. Make sure to get the ranchera preparada y por la maquina. They charge an extra buck or two for a tray, not worth the extra fee just get it in the bag. For holidays it's ridiculously packed so save yourself time and call in the order. Their prepared chicken and short ribs are bomb too. Don't forget their salsas and guacamole... Yum! read more

Dos Toros Carniceria - Ranchera preparada y por la maquina.... Bomb!!!!! - Grocery Near Me - Huntington Park, California

Okay, so I had been looking for a good meat spot for quite sometime. I had searched Google up and down looking for something reasonable, tasty and not too far from where I live. I stumbled upon Dos Toros on Yelp and decided to buy into the Hype. I ordered some Carne Asada preparada to go. Man was it awesome! The flavor was vibrant and full of citrus. The meat was so tender that it literally falls apart in your mouth when BBQ'd. I've tried other meat markets in Los Angeles, but none have come close to the savory meat that is sold at Dos Toros. I'll be trying their Posole meat very soon, so expect an update soon. read more

The best meat for a Carne Asada. Will definitely come back although I will have to drive a Good 15 miles but it's worth it.
