Whenever we've historically been in (Paso) town, we try to stock up on their cheddar-jalapeno pork sausage. Folks, the sausage is just fantastic after cooked over an open flame/coal fire. We also relied heavily on J&R Natural Meat and Sausage customer service to resupply us via overnight mail. We did these methods of resupply for years and never had a problem. Then Sinton & Sons took over. We ran out of our supply of cheddar-jalapeno sausage, and I called S&S up. I was assured that the same recipe was being performed for the sausage and that mail order would continue to NOT be an issue under the new ownership. I ordered a small batch of about 5-6 packets, just in case quality had dropped. Days went by and I saw my payment method had not been charged... I called back. Whoops, sorry, we found the order request, it will be handled ASAP I was told. Days pass, no charge. Another call. Whoops! We're NOW out of shipping boxes! We've got the order, and as soon as the boxes come, it will go out ASAP! Days pass, no charge, no box of sausages. Luck would have it we needed to make a trip to Paso anyway, so off to S&S Wifey and I went. Ambiance: I was a little worried when I saw the "J&R Natural Meat and Sausage" was still up outside, and a temporary banner for Sinton & Sons was above the door..... we went inside and found stocked meat cabinets, although a few less choices than before when it was J&R's. But then we found our go-to cheddar-jalapeno and bought some to-go. I've subsequently cooked a couple of them up and the good news is that the sausage is still on-point! We bought a fabulous tri-tip as well, and all the supplies from S&S cooked up nicely and tasted great! I'm hopeful they'll square away their over the phone/remote customer service corrected so we can give them money for more good stuff soon!

At this point my wife has little to no confidence I can choose a good place to eat after a dismal lunch in Nipomo and an even worse dinner in Cambria yesterday. We made our way to Paso Robles seeking lunch. Primal House looked good and had the endorsement of my Yelp friend Randy B. who seems to be the number one Yelp Guru in the area. He was right and this place was really good. Woo Hoo! I got one of their craft beers, "Old Blue" small-batch pilsner. It was great. Our waitress was awesome. Wife got the club sandwich and I went with a single patty cheese burger that was wonderful. There is hope for this trip after all. Yay!

Farm to table, they raise the cattle they serve. We had a pianist playing for dinner, and she was quite good. As to the food, my wife decided to order their BLTA which was bacon, lettuce, tomato and avocado for her dinner. It came with a dish of cole slaw, which was emboldened with some jalepeno - very nice! She said the bacon was very tasty and good on the sandwich. I ordered their filet mignon with a side of their smashed potatoes, which were covered with cheese and bacon chunks. The filet was served with a green chimichurra sauce and a combination of sour creme and horseradish. I went all in on the sour creme and horseradish sauce - it was delightful. The steak was cooked to order. The bathrooms were clean. The service was very strong. The abiance her is butchershop/restaurant/brewery. The back bar was set up nicely - they had a variety of alcohol and non-alcohol drinks. Kid friendly (keep them out of the brewery) and just a nice place to visit! It's a bit off the beaten path, so take the time to find it. Also, their beer names - were pretty EPIC.

The tortilla was nice and fresh, all of the ingredients married perfectly for a great bite. My wife had the Quesabirria Tacos. They were perfectly sauced and flavorful. The meat was nice and tender and the cheese was a perfect pair. Once dipped in the consommé...lights out delicious. Side note.. add some of that consommé to the Burrito... next level. The price point is spot on. You most definitely get your money's worth. The overall store has your usual grocery items with a Mecicsn twist. Don't go in expecting a glamorous restaurant setting. It's a grocery store with a kitchen in the back, and a taco stand outside. They also have a full meat counter. I usually order to go, but they have plenty outside seating.

We were at a wine pick up in the village and walked by this butcher store. They had wild boar but ground. I asked about wild boar meat for a goulash/stew. I was expecting a response such as we can keep wild boar for you and not grind it for you because most customers like it ground. I also asked about venison. I explained that I have an online source but prefer to buy local. Rather than telling me they could obtain both for us on special order, we were just dismissed. We pay an enormous amount of money for expedited shipping from Texas. And the meat is not cheap. It's just bad business practice not to cater to local patrons when you have access to "exotic meats".

The tri tip was very flavorful! probably the best tri tip I had ever had. TH=here was some good smoke flavor in that meat. Sliced very thin, it was so easy to eat. No fighting the meat. Bread was buttered. BBQ on the side was Sweet Baby Ray's. I found that the BBQ sauce took away from the sammich, so I did very little dipping. If I come again, which I hope I do, I will order that sammich, but prepared in the same manner in which they prepare the roast beef sandwich. We took some chile verde sausages home to try, and those have a strong and memorable chile taste. For people who do not like spicy, beware. For the rest of us it is a satisfying burn. It is a pork sausage. Wife denied the purchase of the blackberry habanero sausage, so I will be left wondering about those. We also grabbed their pesto mayo. We will be trying that this week. I think I would have liked it on my tri tip sammich. I love pesto on anything. Place ain't cheap, but what is?

Wondering if they've stopped seasoning their meat in order to cater to the demographic here in Atascadero.... Especially the carne asada I mean apart from having so much fatty meat, it had no flavor. The service is always great too, just a little disappointing. When I'm talking about flavor, especially for $4 a taco, I expect a hint of garlic, salt, pepper, lime, etc. I expect the meat to be marinated and flavorful. Maybe they already do that, given they do sell amazing carne preparada, but the hot food just hasn't been the same for the last 3-4 times I've gone. I like supporting local mexican businesses so I continue to go but today might've been my last. I don't think I'll be driving from Slo to Suprema Meat Market for their hot food again. The cold and prepared meats are of high quality though so this review is strictly for the hot food. I understand that they need to stay competitive with the market, but the total for 5 bite sized tacos was $22.... That's insane. For $4 a taco, I just expect more. I hope they review this and implement some change! I see that the owner reached out and I appreciate his response. Maybe I'll give it a try again.
