    Ive been coming to this place for years now and its always been crowded even though the store is really small, the only good reason to come here is their "carne ranchera" which is great for BBQs. but good luck trying to find a parking spot because their private lot is always full.

    Better than In n Out!! This how my hubby and I eat. Like a boss!! :))

    Quality of the meat is great. I like the chorizo and cucina. The chorizo has alot of flavor and it's not greasy.

    The pre seasoned steak and longaniza or chorizo is what I typically get.

I didn't mind waiting, but it felt like he was intentionally taking his time. When it was finally my turn, he asked me to meet him on the other side of the store, handed me my bag, and said I looked mad and could have the sandwiches for free. I told him I was happy to pay, and he responded by telling me to "fuck off." I was shocked and asked if he had really just said that, and he doubled down and told me to get going. I've been a regular customer for years, but after being treated like that by the owner, I won't be back. Ryan came across as someone who grew up with a silver spoon in Newport Beach and thinks he can talk to customers however he wants. Unfortunately, they just lost two loyal customers.

I can honestly say I've never been disappointed. One of our favorite purchases was a prime rib we pre-ordered for Christmas dinner. It was mouthwatering and perfectly seasoned, and it came beautifully wrapped and ready to go. All I had to do was pop it in the oven, which made hosting so much easier. Being able to pre-order prime rib and other cuts for holiday meals or dinner gatherings is such a huge convenience. Another one of our absolute favorites is their burgers. They are so delicious and beautifully mixed with a prime selection of meats -- you can truly taste the quality in every bite. They are always juicy, flavorful, and perfect for grilling. They also make deli sandwiches that are so good and full of flavor! Everything is made with care, and you can really tell they take pride in what they offer. On top of all that, their customer service is outstanding. The staff is always friendly, fast, and extremely helpful. They truly go above and beyond to make sure you have everything you need. Highly recommend to anyone looking for high-quality meat, incredible prepared foods, and exceptional service!

They have high-quality cuts of meats and a small, but nicely curated shop with delicious snacks and pantry staples. I like to come here for their picanha, priced at $19.99 a lb. Usually $20 allows me to walk out the door with two modestly sized steaks that become spectacular when they're finished on my stainless-steel pan at home. I also like their frozen meatballs in their freezer, which adds some really nice savory flavors to my spaghetti and meatballs. They have really high end cuts of meat like wagyu and Japanese A5 meats here; however, that's not really what I come looking for. Their pantry is nicely stocked with quality ingredients. It's hard to not pass up their delicious pork rinds (from 4505 or Southern Recipe) or Mutti marinaras. And if I don't feel like cooking, I can come for lunch in order to walk away with a sandwich that they can make for me. Overall, this is a small shop, that's thoughtfully stocked with some really high-quality ingredients for me to make a nice dinner at home!

Our friends took us for the first time on a Friday night and we waited about 20mins around 9:30pm. They don't take reservations, you have to put your name down and then they call your name so you have to stick around. It is definitely worth waiting for though! We got set C, which was perfect for 4 people. It comes with pork belly, pork shoulder, pork jowl, and beef. The pork belly and jowl were my favorites. Not only are the meats quality, but the sides are equally as delicious. There's a bean sprout soup, kimchi soup, cold noodles, and pickled veggies. Can't forget the sauces either, I put the garlic oil and wasabi on everything. There's even cheese that you eat with it. They cook the food for you and bring you extra sides if needed. They also serve alcohol so can get soju and beer if you'd like. I can't wait to come back!

Like pork belly is amazing and it's sooo good but i don't have a gallbladder so it's not something i eat often My husband and I were in the area for a convention and decided to meet here with a friend for early dinner! We got a combo and i believe we ordered a side of pork jowl if im not mistaken and maybe a soup? The combos come with a bean sprout soup that's honestly very yummy for how simple it was and the combo we got came with cheese. Let me tell ya, order more cheese. It was soo good grilled and when you eat it the pork belly it just hits. The whole experience was great as they cook the meat for you and you get to chat with friends and just focus on eating. The service was great but so take in mind we came just as they had opened for the day on a Saturday.. the location was a little hot but they did have a fan running and that helps keep it manageable in there. Overall i had a great time and the food was spectacular so i will 100% be making the drive from Ontario to here for some great pork!!

Was in next door and had drinks so looking for some solid good late night foods. Went here and was behind 3 people but it move quite quickly. Typical taco food truck menu I would say but they do have 2 separate bars: one for the sauces and the other is for the veggies and they have plenty of it plus it well clean and well stocked up. Service is nice and friendly, not bad for waiting. Ordered a burrito ($11) with 1/2 marinated pork (which is quite good), and 1/2 with tongue (interesting, not bad but I wouldn't do it again for the burrito, for taco - yes) w/o cheese & bean - basically meats w/ rice and everything else. The portion is quite HUGE, 2 people can finish w/ that for sure. Overall, it was very tasty burrito w/ a lot of condiments, she even gave me grilled onions with it l, which are sweet & delish. Glad that I decided to stop by to give it a try. Will definitely come back for more.

I always order 2-3 Al pastor tacos and then just add all the sauces and toppings they have which are all good and the spicy sauces are spicy but enjoyable to me. The meat is nice and flavorful and I feel like they give you a good amount. I also like that they let me do one tortilla instead of the two.
