Great prices, delicious meat, excellent customer service. We bought some Pechuga de pollo preparada. Took it home and BBQ'd it and it was great! Also their pulled pork is the best in North County. Keep up the great work! read more

If you are looking for authentic Mexican food, spicy and tasty salsa then this is a stop you should make. If you are looking for good flavor get the costilla pork ribs. The meat was tender and delicious. My husband added the spicy. I had the chicken fajitas with flour tortillas. It was so delicious that I wanted to keep eating it, even though I was full. The lady that took our order was very nice and our food was ready in a timely matter. The restaurant is connected to a local market. read more

Went in today to buy beef tongue expecting it to be fresh and of good quality. Upon bringing it home we realized the meat had an awful rotting smell and had been frozen (there were ice chunks and the base of the tongue was hard). I will be returning tomorrow to ask for a refund. It was over 40 dollars worth of spoiled meat they sold us. read more

Despite the apparent good food choices it's unfortunate that management allows blatant disrespect to the cooks and staff. One butcher it particularly abusive to the woman staff. I mean I understand its a different culture but in today's world in America that just isn't right. Management knows but doesn't care. Their women are to only serve and shut up. read more

Rodeos Market I love this place The food it's delicious The lady's from the kitchen Very friendly I highly recommend Thank you read more

Authentic Mexican meat market/grocery store. On weekdays try to get there after 4pm for fresh chicharon..,,awesome!

Ive had this inconvenience happen twice already. I ask the butcher for pork ribs and they price for me beef ribs. Which is like 5 dollars more a pound. First time i called and they refunded me the difference . This second time they said they dont do returns or exchanges. I showed them the receipt that im not asking for any of that just a refund for what they overcharged me. A woman at the register waiting to pay overheard my conversation and said the same thing has happened to her before . Im starting to believe its done intentionally. The fact that they know theyre in the wrong and still refuse to acknowledge it is ridiculous . read more

Best meat for CARNE ASADA! Love the service here and great clean store! If you know , you know read more

Can't speak about grocery shopping here because I haven't bought any of their meats but I did get some carne asada taco and chicken tacos and they were absolutely delicious ! Don't believe me just look at the picture! Probably the most photogenic tacos I have seen. I loved the tortilla they were a little thicker than usual tacos but 4 tacos and I was full. The food part is located at the right corner of the store, they have a really big menu so they have any of your needs but I'm telling you don't skip these tacos! Best I've ever had and can't wait to get more! The price is 2.89 if I remember correctly read more

Accessibility: there were a few accessible parking spots here and a ramp to get from the parking lot to the store entrance. The door to enter was a motion-activated door and they did have regular shopping carts and hand-held baskets. The isles were a little narrow but you could fit a wheelchair through as long as people move out of your way...there were lots of people. The employees speak Spanish and English. Experience: the parking lot is VERY full here and it's tight. I saw people parking their cars on the street outside the parking lot and walking. Inside the store there were TONS of people. Very busy on a Monday (Labor day), especially in the meat section in the back. read more

Been here several times and it is a pretty good neighborhood Mexican Market, but they just lost my business forever. I was ten miles into a twelve mile walk and they refused to refill my water bottle from the tap. AGUA LIBRE!!! read more

I wish i could reply to some of these reviews, place is great and to the guy about grey meat, the meat at the grocery stores is painted red it doesn't look like that when its harvested from the animal, what does it look like you ask? Its grey read more

The meat sometimes here is very discolored and smells funky!! I asked the butcher to not give me GREY meat but it was all like that!! So disappointed.. hit or miss read more

The meat at the butcher shop is not good at all. All the meats are next to each other and lots of cross contamination. Need food and health inspection here asap. The service is mediocre. Nice home vibe though. read more

They have some of the best marinaded meats. You will not be disappointed going here to pick up meats for a cook out. So delicious. Must try. I always see them washing the sidewalk outside also, just shows they keep their place clean. read more

New to the area & looking for a place we can buy our meat. Ask if I could use their bathroom & they said NO. I told them since they also have a taco shop in there they should have bathrooms available for clients! read more

It's the real deal. I love the selection of meats and salsas . Variety of drinks. The people are always friendly and helpful here. 5 stars on this one! Our new got to market . read more

Amazing meat department! I have been coming here for years. Everybody is so helpful and welcoming.

I walked in at 8:00 exactly. Literally was backing in at 7:59 as she watched me, said sorry they are closed. What trash customer service.

We ordered chile relleno and other cooked food and it was not cooked right will never order cooked food here again.

There were flies swarming everywhere around the meat counter vicinity. I don't know how people could stomach eating the meat. I specifically came for meat but ended up Buying cilantro and onions and left. Two stars for their selection because there were many options. But the meat counter with flies around it just isn't for me. read more

If they offered barbecued meat, then they would supplant Primo Market for Mexican market supremacy. But they do have a great adobada de puerco. It's super great actually. Another great item they sell is their homemade guacamole. The guacamole is much softer than Primo's version but costs the same, but it's the flavor that sets it apart. Rodeo's salsa verde is hot, not sour, hot. So if you're looking to venture into something more mild, then you should probably head down the street to Food 4 Less and grab a bottle of Herdez. Aside from the adobada, you can also puchase longanisa (sausage) and Cuban cuts of steak like palomilla and milanese. Granted, those cuts aren't specifically Cuban, but if you're looking to create some Cuban meals at home, this is where you can find your steak. You'll also find lots of produce and pre-packaged goods here. The parking lot is much easier to navigate than Primo and proximity to the 78 is less than one mile. It's a no-brainer if you live in Vista. But if you live close to the 78 and you swear by Primo, you owe it to yourself to see who really is the best. That's the American way... read more

My friend brought some Rodeo's guacamole to work one day. Ever since that day, I would drive by and I would wonder what it's like in there. I finally went in there last week and it was great. Purchases included: bags of tortilla chips from the back, guacamole from the take-out food area, and pico de gallo from the take-out food area. I went back tonight to get some meat. I asked, "Do you guys have marinated chicken?" Boy, do they! The chicken breast is very thin. I love it. I love the "pollo asado" seasoning they use. We grilled it up and the chicken remained juicy and tender. I also bought the ceviche de camaron, some gordita tortillas, and some more of the chips. read more

This is a traditional Mexican market with extraordinary meats. I love their arrecherra and they marinate it for you. All you have to do is throw it on the grill, slice it up, and enjoy! It's honestly the best I've had since buying carne asada in San Diego (10+ years). The produce selection is ok, and they have hot food to go (good street tacos). The salsa and guac they make is good and they sell fresh made tortillas. Great place to pick up meat, any kind, for a Summer BBQ. read more

This is an AWESOME little neighborhood market with fresh meat and produce as well as a neighborhood charm. Also, a fantastic deli section with freshly cooked beef, rellenos, calabacitas, salsa, and other delights. read more

We have been trying to find a meat market since we have came here a few months back and can't find any like we have in Washington. Anyway hubby found rodeos and went in. They didn't have t- bones which is our favorite, ok fine but he didn't feel welcome at all. Everything is in Spanish. They looked at him weird like he isn't Mexican, he shouldn't be there. Doesn't stores nowadays have a lot of labels in English then Spanish to help them? They can't do that for us? I thought discrimination was bad? Really sad. I guess we will stick to winco around here. read more

This place is great, their Carnitas meat is always cooked perfect, we order 2lbs and it feeds 8 people, it's always juicy and never dry.

Everything is good but they never open on time and the big lady always gives people discriminating looks...

Went in for the first time last week after driving by this place for three years. I was specifically looking for good quality skirt steak to make fajitas. They had it and it was perfect. Lots of traditional mex items are offered there including fresh vegetables, salsa, tortillas etc. great meat selections to be had, I recommend Rodeo's. read more

I went in for an agua de piña today and when I looked at my cup it had a fly inside so disgusting

Closest option for Mexican market from Carlsbad. They have great tortillas, Mexican candy and our go to for meats. They cut everything fresh so there is always a line (expect it). They also serve hot-ready foods like caritas, rice, and beans. They have plenty of parking and close to freeway access. If you are looking for some authentic ingredients this place is it! read more

Good meat. But boy does it sink in there. I cover my nose. Lol besides the smell they have good meat, and fresh guacamole

Had some food here! Very tasty tacos. Plus the grocery store has awesome products!

I'm never disappointed in meat quality. And there house marinade is excellent on beef and chicken. That's why it's always packed on the weekends. But it's worth it. read more
