    Taco meat
    Aimee L.

    Usually we have no issues with this establishment but I am disappointed today. I went in and asked for asada and was given mince taco meat. I just wanted regular asada to bbq on a charcoal grill. I never said anything about minced. Now we're scrambling to figure out how we are going to prepare it after lighting the charcoal bbq grill. We come here because they have my boyfriend's favorite salsa, but I probably won't go by myself again that way this doesn't happen again. Usually we are happy with the quality and flavor of the meat and salsas we get. Once in awhile we have a disappointing day where something wasn't the quality we expected. I'm still giving 4/5 stars because the employees are always courteous and welcoming. We would recommend the molcajete salsa, cucumber salsa, guacamole salsa, chicken and asada meat.

    Shrimp ceviche try with that hot sauce on their shelf

    Good ole fashioned meat market with excellent customer service. The owner and his staff are always really welcoming and greet you when you walk in. They have an excellent selection and quality of meats especially their diced up meat for tacos i especially love their chicken al pastor. They also sell salsa , beans , rice and a limited amount of produce to get your cook out started right. On this day i stopped by to pick up some of their shrimp ceviche that I've been eyeing for some time. It was really good I highly recommend it , really fresh and perfectly seasoned with salt. I picked up a bottle of hot sauce on their shelf that added the perfect amount of heat that I needed and they had crackers and tostadas to accompany it. This place is still kinda of a hidden gem it's not ever to busy in there which I like I'm always in and out quick. If you ever find yourself off Rosedale highway stop by and check it out , it's next to the vista west continuation school , you'll be glad you did .

    Buyer beware-mislabeled and overcharged

    Went in to give this place a try for the first time, knowing it's a small market and prices are likely a bit higher, i dont mind that too much if the quality is good. It was our mistake not to catch it before leaving, so this is a warning if anyone plans to go there. Look at your meat tags. They charged this item as shrimp ceviche at $9.99/lb. I'm not sure if you can see clearly through the bag in the photo, but what we requested AND RECEIVED is Chicken Taco Meat. Nowhere near the same price. That's not an easy mistake for them to make. it seems intentional to me.

    Came by to grab some of their ceviche, best ceviche i've tasted! Shrimp ceviche is a must grab from this tiny market. Not sure how i'd like the mix (seafood). Very tiny market, lots of mexican influenced foods and items. Meat market has everything you want. But by damn, that camaron ceviche is freaking good!

    Coming from a smaller town to Bakersfield, it's harder to find that hometown meat shop taste but this place is definitely a piece of home. You are certainly getting your monies worth with whatever it is you decide to pick up. Diezmillo 10/10, Ceviche (any of them) 10/10, they even have containers of pre chopped onion and cilantro to get your meal started sooner . Until they give me a reason to, I will stand behind my 5 rating.

    I'm going to let you in on my little secret if you don't already know it..it's about this wonderful meat market less than 5 min from my house. This little meat market has saved me from a lot of lazy nights & forgetful episodes! Did you forget to take out the frozen meat to defrost the night before? Don't feel like marinating your meat all night? Can't decide what to make for dinner? Don't want to hassle with waiting for the shrimp to cook for ceviche? Well then get your little self to this market so they can solve your problems! They have all the meat cuts you need, skirt steak, flank steak, the popular spicy ranchera, marinaded chicken, they have fresh cheese, fresh salsa, chicharrones (fried pork turned into puffy snack), & the ever so popular in my household--ceviche!! It's the best in town! Plus all the accessories to complete your meal like tortillas, bottled salsas, produce, Jarito drinks... I can't name everything! Just go! You can thank me later when you're BBQing your amazing finds from La Chuleta!

    Everything I need for Tacos!

    Love this Meat Market! Was welcomed immediately and was given the break down between cuts of meats as well as Salsas! Also on which corn tortillas are better so they don't rip apart. We were given some cucumber salsa to try for free! Prices are very reasonable and the hospitality was unique. This will be our meat market from on!

I don't know how they could change that in the physical set up that they have right now. I ordered a chuck roll and a tri-tip and a pound of smoked bacon. It was all delicious and the beef was more tender than meat that I normally purchase in a grocery store. There was a lot, a lot, of fat on my untrimmed tri-tip, but it was delicious nonetheless. If they could somehow get into a beef counter situation where customers can see what goes on in the butcher shop itself, that would take them to five stars for me.
