$57 dollars worth of carne asada
Lola B.

The best place in the SOUTH BAY for Carne Asada. I haven't met another place that could make me change my mind. The carne asada here is prepared so well. It is addicting. Lines are 98% always super long. Store is well kept and clean. There are a lot of other items here to buy. Their salsas and guacamole are also delicious.

A great place for all of your barbecue and needs for tacos, burritos and all types of barbecue.

Unable to take a photo of the food since I ordered it for tomorrow's pick up will update later

Amazing carne and pollo para asar. Best marinade everrrr. So an old coworker introduced me about 10+ years ago, and I've been coming back ever since. Things to know before you go: Parking is , getting in and out if horrible if they are busy. If you can park on the street. On holiday weekends be prepared to wait in long lines. Usually when it's a beyond busy, there will be someone out handing out tickets, hold on to your ticket. They will call your number before going in. The same number will be called to place your order, so hang on to it. If it's a regular day, just head up to the ticket machine ans grab your number. There's two cashiers and usually one line. They will call the next customers. You can ask if there is two lines or one instead of cutting off a bunch of grumps. They accept cash, credit cards and EBT. Not sure about all the newer phone app payments and such. Anywho, highly

Salsas, nopales, and all types of meat

Hidden Gem Alert!!! I absolutely love La Venadita. They have the best and freshest meat and ceviche around. I've been going to the Wilmington location for years and recently started coming to the Carson location. The price of the meat is good compared to other places, and the quality is top notch. The guys working the counter are always very friendly and helpful. The store is very organized and clean. They carry everything you need to have a great meal with the family no matter how big or small. They do get very busy on holidays but once you try the meats you'll know why.

They have gotten very expensive and the quality isn't what I remember for the extra money. I'm not saying it's not good.......

Been here a handful of times and I have to say this is a taste I have been craving. Albacore and…read moreChicken spread are my go to everytime pricey but worth it the smoke taste brings out so much flavor in both of these spreads, have also had their smoke pastrami sandwich and it was def a 10/10, service was excellent, feels like home! Black owned business, owners are doing a great job! No indoor dining, everything to go.

4.5 stars rounded up. If you like smoked meats, give Handy's Smoke House Meats a try!…read more I've been to Nothing Bundt Cakes right by this spot and never realized it was here for the longest time! Handy's is unassuming and easy to miss. It's to-go only, and they offer smoked meats and also sandwiches. Some of the things I've tried which I really like include the smoked chicken wings, and the albacore and salmon spreads. The ones I've tried from other places are usually smooth and easily spreadable, but Handy's is more chunky with noticeable bits of fish in it, so it's unique to me. I also like their mini sweet potato pie, which I believe is seasonal. The one thing I didn't care too much for was the tri-tip. I don't know if it was just an off-day but I wasn't a big fan of the flavor. I do want to come back to try some other things though, like their brisket! The people here are very friendly, and they'll go over the menu/items with you if you ask!

5/5 Food: 5/5…read more Ambience: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Noise Level: 5/5 Ocean in Santa Monica delivered an exceptional dining experience from start to finish. We started with the steak tartare, which was probably the best tartare we've ever had. The butcher's bread nearly stole the show--we ordered two of them and will absolutely be coming back just for the bread. For entrées, I ordered the 12-ounce thick-cut New York Wagyu. It was cooked perfectly, seasoned perfectly, and ranks among the best New York steaks I've ever had. We also ordered the 30-day dry-aged bone-in ribeye, which had an incredible nutty, buttery flavor and was equally impressive. The oysters were outstanding--fresh, clean, and exactly what you'd expect from a restaurant owned by a team known for doing seafood right. My daughter ordered the meatballs, which were also delicious. A nice bonus: they offer complimentary corkage for the first bottle, so I brought a French red that paired beautifully with the steaks. Overall, Ocean exceeded our expectations. Outstanding food, great atmosphere, attentive service, and a comfortable noise level that made conversation easy. We will definitely be back.
