I'm reviewing this place as a restaurant, not as a market…read more That said, this place really misses the mark. I struggle with places that have the awareness to acquire and serve excellent cuts of beef, but then NOT bother seasoning them. I just don't understand. The meat was juicy, tender and free of grisle. It was great quality meat. But it just had no flavor. And I can't fathom why. I also had the beef Chicharron taco, and the meat was old, overly greasy and burnt. Yuck. I may come back and try a different meat, I think they had Al Pastor. But other than that, I can't recommend this place.

One Stop Shopping!!!…read more When you suddenly find yourself with surprise visitors for Breakfast or Brunch ... go to Del Rancho Carniceria I needed three Boneless Ribeye Steaks, none were out, no problem for Butcher Willy. He got a fresh slab from the cooler, cut them to my desired thickness, ¾ inch thick, 1 lbs each. Grabbed some Fresh Vegetables, some Fresh Prepared Refried Beans, Mexican Rice and Guacamole with Pico De Gallo. Five minutes in the store. At home, lit up the grill, dry-rub the meat, prepared the Fried Eggs in Unsweetened Butter. Steaks and Bulb Onions onto the grill, set table, 'nuked' beans and rice. Brought steak and onions in, created presentation. Fifteen (15!) Minutes at home work. Del Rancho Carniceria is a 'life'-saver. Butcher Willy is the Best. Give it a try, there meat selection is second to none in this area ...

If you follow my Tucson reviews, I have been trying to find the best Carne Asada in town. For those uninitiated, great Carne Asada is the following: 1. Juicy 2. Well seasoned 3. Good cut(which means it's a solid piece, it's not thin, kibblelike or has too much grisle) 4. Tender I had a Carne Asada burrito and it was juicy, flavorful and had a little grisle, but not so much that I was upset. Overall was tender and good flavored. Not the greatest I've had, but definitely above average. The service was a tad lacking, but not offensive. I definitely would come back, I only took a star off for the service and grisle. My next visit will likely update to 5 stars.

Caught Tucson Tamale Company as a food truck recently and it was such a nice surprise. I was…read moreactually a little sad to hear their eastside brick-and-mortar location closed, but I'm glad they're still popping up at events and around town because these tamales are definitely worth tracking down. I ordered the blue corn veggie tamale, and my husband went for the cheese & green chile. The masa itself was really delicious--soft, flavorful, and that beautiful blue corn adds a little extra depth. While I wouldn't say it's the absolute best tamale I've ever had, it was still very solid and something I'd happily eat again. I especially appreciate that they offer a vegan option right on the menu, which isn't always easy to find when it comes to tamales. Overall, a great quick food-truck find and a Tucson staple I'm glad is still making the rounds. If you see their truck at an event, it's definitely worth grabbing a tamale (or two).

They had a good plan in place for Xmas eve walk in for tortillas and the line moved appropriately…read more I arrived around 11 on Xmas eve and was still able to pick up tortillas with no problem but the selection was minimal. This is by far my favorite tortilla shop on the eastside for fresh tortillas. I have tried the corn, flour and the lard, they are all great and come in many different sizes. I ended up getting green corn tamales as well and I'm so happy I didn't serve them for Christmas. They were very poorly made. Even after steaming them The masa was chunky and so much skin in it the insides were very dark and almost orange which I assume was the cheese. I ended up throwing them away they were inedible. So my rating is based on the tortillas not the tamales.

Today, I decided to explore their red chile burros and refried beans. Sadly it was a complete disappointment. Red chile was watered down with no flavor at all. Seriously I can not recommend this at all. The shredded meat was cooked fine but again no flavor. The refried beans with smashed with some whole beans mixed in and they were just okay. No real flavor again. Service is always excellent, friendly and fast. Their place of business is always clean and welcoming. Food was not good...at all and that makes me sad to write this. Edit: I wanted to add a positive on the green corn tamales we bought. They were very good. So out of the three food items we purchase the green corn tamales were a positive!
