Super impressed with Kennedy's Meat Company. We saw it on yelp while planning a big group trip to Temecula and thought we would stop to buy some of their pre marinated meats to grill at our airbnb one night and we were all super impressed!! We got a mango habanero carne, pineapple pastor chicken and a cilantro lime green chile carne. Soooo good! My favorite was the green carne. Get it and you will not regret it. The garlic salsa was also delicious. Perfect for bbqs and big groups! They also have group meals as well. The people working there were also very helpful explaining the different marinations. read more

My new favorite meat market! I was coming back from Palm Desert and decided to look up meat markets for the weekend. Wow, was I pleasantly surprised to find Kennedy's. This is an upscale Mexican market, but it's not stuffy. The variety of choices enticed me, and I bought four different varieties. 1. Chicken breast- Lemon - Served this over pasta! 2. Chicken- Cilantro Lime - Made Chicken bowls 3. Chicken- El Pastor - Burritos 4. Chicken Sausage- Habenero 0-Served w Eggs (Spicy) One of the highlights of my visit was the young man at the counter, whose name I regrettably didn't get. His patience and willingness to guide us through the marinades was commendable. We expressed our preference for spice, and he was careful to recommend specific items with different flavors for us to try. His service was truly exceptional. Despite living in El Cajon, a drive to Kennedy's is a commitment. The quality and variety of their products, and exceptionalonvinced me that it's worth the joy I'm willing to couple with th service, have cey. I've already made a plan to visit at least once a month. It's that good. p.s. The chips and Flour tortillas are out of this world. read more

Kennedy's Meat Company - Look for the Red Sign. - Meat Shops Near Me - Temecula, California

Lately I've given out an unusual amount of 5 star reviews lately, so I've tried really hard to think of something I didn't like here at Kennedy's to justify breaking this perceived pattern... But I can't!!! I stood here and literally GRAZED on their home made tortillas, chips, and salsa samples and NO ONE said a thing! Yes, I felt guilty but it was ALL SO GOOD and the best part was no one gave me shame vibes! (That is a WIN for ANY 40 something Husband!) My wife was at the counter ordering all of our meats for the BBQ and I started talking to all the friendly people here about different cuts and options for their meats and every single person here was super knowledgeable and friendly, so I was really taking advantage and started planning on our NEXT BBQ before we had this one. We went here for about 8lbs of carne & pollo asada (4lbs each), and we left with a mix of about 20lbs of 7 different meats, a couple bags of chips and tortillas, and 4 different salsas and a Mexican coke. Definitely coming back to Kennedy's! read more

Stopped by Kennedy's for the first time on 6/20/25 around noonish, and I have to say--it was well worth the wait. The line took a little while, but it was easy to see why. The two workers behind the counter weren't rushing anyone--they were making sure every single customer got exactly what they needed, with care and attention to detail you don't often see anymore. It felt personal and genuine. I picked up a few different cuts, but the *BBQ beef kabobs* stole the show. After I took them off the skewers and sliced them up, they turned into these insanely tender, flavorful bites that made the *perfect "burnt ends" side dish*. Seriously, they melted in my mouth. The *mango habanero chicken* had the right amount of sweet heat and cooked down to absolute perfection--juicy, spicy, and packed with flavor. And the *chile cilantro chicken* was another hit--bright, bold, and perfect for the grill. But the best part of the whole experience? How *fresh* everything was. You can *taste* the difference. Kennedy's isn't just a butcher shop--it's a place where quality still matters. I'll definitely be back. read more

Great meats and salsas. Everyone is friendly. The meat is worth the price. Glad they opened in Temecula

I have waited to give this review. So many times I have reviewed companies based on the one time I went, only to be disappointed . Well, we have went there 4 or 5 times now, it just keeps getting better. Problem is, once you have their food, you won't be satisfied with Ralphs or Vons meant anymore. It is superior quality. But honestly, the best part are all the people working in there. They are all super friendly and helpful. The butchers, the cash register people, all of them are great and most if them are young. These guys didn't get the memo that service is supposed to be poor these days. Plus the store is super clean. They got prime cuts, 21 day aged steaks for special occasions, anything you want. I don't easily hand out 5 stars, but these guys earned it. The spicy hamburger meat is so damn good read more

I had been waiting for this store to open ever since my friend Karen told me about it. I was very happy to find out how close it is to me. A couple of weeks ago I went in to check out all the stuff. Bought some tortilla chips, guacamole and chocolate empanadas. Just waiting for an excuse to come back for more things. Turns out Memorial Day was the perfect day to get supplies. We ended up buying some beautiful cowboy ribeye steaks, beans, poblano rice, garlic salsa, guacamole and tortilla chips. Made for a wonderful BBQ with little effort on my part. I like easy. I will definitely be back. There are quality meats of all kinds; Tri tips, pollo, pork, carnitas of several flavors, etc. until next time Kennedy's! Oh, I should also mention how extremely nice everyone there is, and helpful. read more

We have heard all the excitement about Kennedy's coming to town. We decided to give it a try. We got here shortly before they closed. We scored on their chicken thigh sale. I'm not really familiar with chicken thighs, I typically use chicken breast. I figured id give it a whirl. I spoke to one of the gentleman and he told me how to cook it. I decided to throw it on my Blackstone. I got the mango habanero as well as lemon. Both were fantastic. Very flavorful. I chop them up and threw them on their hybrid tortillas. If you have never tried the corn and flour blend of tortillas, you need to do it. A little chewy, not dry. Great balance. Store is fantastic. They have everything prepackaged for you. Beans, rice, cilantro, all kinds of salsa, chipotle sauce, etc. they also have tons of spices and all sorts of stuff. Can't wait to try the food they serve as well as the carne asada. Will definitely be back! read more

Some of the best chicken and carne asada I have ever had! The chili, lime cilantro is our favorite. The salsas are so good and they carry my favorite chips from Encinitas! read more

Awesome selection of meats, definitely going to try out Taco night with all the ingredients they have there. The man behind the counter meant well but had no clue what certain cuts of meat were and couldn't tell us what was inside the jalapeño poppers, more training or get someone who knows the quality of your products 8/10 first time experience read more

Excellent flavor and freshness. Becoming a goto spot for our meat. The pineapple pastor chicken thighs were delicious!

Awesome selection. Tried the Original Lemon Chicken Thighs today - grilled them on the flat top and turned out fantastic. Super tender and juicy with outstanding flavor. Salsa and Corn Salad were also great. Can't wait to try all the other options they have. I will definitely be back. read more

Great selection of meats! I bought six ribeyes for Thanksgiving, they are about 4 inches thick so they cut them in halves for me. The employees were very helpful and friendly. They also had a great assortment of spices, bottle sodas, and a few essential vegetables. I saw some excellent meats for smoking so I will be shopping here a lot this summer, I smoke quite a lot of different meats including pork belly for my own bacon recipe. read more

This is without a dad the best steakhouse anywhere in the state there sticks are fabulous but now I must report their signing on with the new owner and I hope to God he or she is as good as we've got now thank you read more

I'm really sad to say no. We were so excited, everything displayed so nicely. Huge huge cuts of meat, just like you'd expect from a nemarket/butcher. We were so excited to see a meat market come to the area. It had huge cuts of meat, as one would expect from a meat market. Looked well organized. We ordered 2 of the rib eyes, chicken breast, a bag of chips, salsa and guacamole. Was really excited to throw 2 huge chunks of meat on the grill. Thrn I opened the package! Couldn't believe the switcharoo tiny steaks! That's not what I ordered, I pointed to the huge ones in the display. Where did these tiny steaks come from? Winco? Speaking of which the guac was identical to Wincos. Same packaging, no big deal. Chips were stale. Honestly couldn't believe it and we were truly excited for them to open and appearances are great just not what we barsgajbed for at all, not for $80+ read more

They have everything you need to feed the fam and make everyone happy. Store is clean and everything is well organized. It's like a home chef's Toys R Us. read more
