    Super stinky about to riot duck. After more than 10 washes with salt still stinks the whole kitchen. It ends up in the dumpster

    The ladies work there are nice. But the pictures with the price people uploaded here are outdated . It is $15 a chicken now. No longer $13. Too bad I forgot to take a picture while I was in the shop. (4 stars) Updated review from 4 stars to 1 star: Also. The woman said the duck today is on sale for $15 so I also bought a duck. But when we got home, opened the bag, the duck stinks so bad! The whole kitchen smelled like stinky fart. It like a duck that's about to riot. We washed it more than 10 times with salt and still stinks! Please, don't sell stuffs that are about to go bad. If it's about to go bad then don't list it as FRESH! Because that would be lying to your customers! I don't mind about the price increase because it's price hike everywhere, but totally stinks that I pay to get tricked and lied to and have to throw the whole duck in a dumpster.

    If you're looking for fresh poultry this is the place. They have a variety of chickens and even roosters. You can by them whole or pieces by the lb. They also have duck and duck eggs, spices and a little grocery store inside. It's clean and considering the slaughter chickens it smells really fresh. The day I was here the staff wasn't all that friendly or helpful (I asked a few questions about different species of chicken they had posted and got a quick "they're all the same price") but the product they sell is really what I'm after so I didn't let that affect my review too much. The chickens are fresh and you can tell the difference from store bought. I'm not much of a cook and definitely no expert and even I can taste the difference. Price per whole chicken is $16.50.

    I went this morning to purchase eggs I noticed that the time that they open changed since October 1st they now open at 9, and we'll I saw the sign, the problem was when they opened the door there was 2 ladies working and there was a big line since we all thought it open at 8 there was one lady really nice by the way helping the customers while the other lady her name is Eloisa was taking her time breaking down boxes, while her coworker was trying to work as fast as she could to get the people out with there orders,Eloisa came outside to put some products out when the door locked to go back in and she started knocking really loud and making a scene a customer said she is busy helping us, When then Eloisa responded really rude to the customers can't you see I'm trying to take the other stuff out and instead of helping she went inside and tried to start arguing with the lady that was helping us. Eloisa is rude and disrespectful not only to us paying customers but to her coworker!

    The best fresh poultry!!!

    HIGH QUALITY MEATS! I love their ribeye ends! They're tender and delicious!…read more The service is amazing. They were so helpful and taught me how to order steaks properly. For my first time order, they were friendly and adjustable. It's very clean inside and I they have all the meats available through a glass.

    The half hour drive won't deter me one bit from coming back. And that's half an hour both ways. :-D…read more All the parking spaces in the front were full but along the building to the right there were a lot more spaces. Nice and wide too. This place might be bigger than you think, like it was for me. Even though it was Memorial Day weekend, on a Saturday no less, the place was absolutely packed but it was still super clean and all items were neatly arranged as well. I picked out one each of Prime Ribeye, Prime NY Strip and Prime Filet. Didn't cook them till Sunday night and they cooked up super flavorful, juicy and tender. They even have prepared food to go here and after getting my meat order the butcher was kind enough to offer me samples of the Ranch Chicken Wings, Habanero Wings, and the Birria. All of them were really good but the Birria melted in my mouth. I think I just looked at the butcher and said Wow, waited a bit, then said Wow two more times. Forget the local restaurants. If I'm ever in the area looking for a place to eat, I wouldn't hesitate to come in here and get that food-to-go. PS. Even the driver that blocked me from getting over to the exit, forcing me to the next exit, which made me drive miles out of my way, couldn't erase how good this place is. And those food samples were just the icing on the cake. Speaking of icing, I gotta track down some cake now. :-P

    After eating at several Argentinian restaurants recently, I've been on a chimichurri kick. I have…read moretried chimichurri sauces from Whole Foods and Trader Joe's but they aren't really very authentic. A friend recommended seeing what El Gaucho might have, so I visited the next day. The market is easy to spot with a big street sign out front. There are only two parking spots in front, one is a handicapped space. There's plenty of parking around the back though. When you walk in, you will see the main market with lots of items and brands I've never seen before. Slightly to the right is their deli counter with lots of meats, cheeses, and other miscellaneous items. To the right of the entrance is a dining area, and another counter where you can order sandwiches, empanadas, pizza, French fries, and drinks. I was laser focused on getting the chimichurri and leaving since I was short on time. It is in plastic bottles in plain view on on top of the deli counter. I purchased the regular variety, but they also have a spicy version. I could already tell this was going to be way better than the other two sauces I tried. I've had it on a steak, and on my breakfast scrambled eggs, and it's in a whole different league from the grocery versions I tried. It looks just like a restaurant chimichurri, oil based with lots of herbs and spices. I just had a nice filet mignon with chimichurri at a good Argentinan restaurant last week, and this chimichurri is about 90% as good. I moved it from the plastic bottle it comes in to a glass jar which will hopefully help preserve it longer, and store it in the refrigerator. I now have no reason to look elsewhere for chimichurri. My friend visits here periodically and says the sandwiches are excellent. I'll have to return again to try one, get more chimichurri, and explore the market and deli to see what other goodies they have.

These are $14 sandwiches but worth it!

But for $20, I can get a two-meat plate with high quality white meat chicken + beef + fried egg, and feel satiated until late afternoon (might be the peptides talking tho, who knows ;) ). I always call it in, and it's always ready on time. I always get the plate combo (beef + chicken breast), with kale and cabbage salad. Rice is included. I think their mac salad is good, but not worth the upcharge. I do suggest getting extra sauce on the side, as usually the one cup they give isn't enough based on the portion. I also love ordering ahead and just grab n go. This and Urban Grill are both solid options.

It was a bit on the high end but once you took a bite out of it you'd understand why! We decided to dine in and everything was clean and organized. There is comfy indoor seating for a group of 4 at each table. In addition to the cooked food menu, they offer premium butchered meat. We will definitely be back for some lunch along with a Wagyu Bundle to take home!
