"Yay or nay? 1/2Good spot to pick up certain meats. I've enjoyed the entraña (skirt steak), and the Argentine sausages here. Their marinated chicken was good but nothing special. Same with their marinated carne asada. Thought the chicken was better, asada tasted slightly old and I grilled it the same day I bought it. The morcilla (blood sausage) here was gross, would not recommend it. The costillas (short ribs) I was sold here weren't great. I haven't tried them (or the morcilla) again in years though, so that may have changed. They also sell sandwiches, burritos and other items to go. Their pulled pork sandwich is decent. The meat is tasty but by the time I take a bite the bread is a soggy mess, so I don't find myself ever craving it despite the good flavors. The carne asada burrito on the other hand, was not enjoyable at all. Was mostly veggies. Tomatoes cut too thick. Ingredients not dispersed evenly. Lacked meat. The little meat it did have was not good quality. Had pieces of gristle and did not taste fresh. Complementary chips that came with the burrito were stale. Salsas were decent. I'd stick with taking fresh meat home rather than the prepared food from here. Besides their meats and prepared foods, they also have a decent selection of items I enjoy such as their Cuban crackers and dulce de leche.All in all, a decent meat market for some cuts, but not a one stop shop for all your meat needs. Expense 1/1Prices seem fair to me. Haven't noticed anything cheaper or more expensive than other similar markets. Location 1/1The location is a bit small, but I haven't had any issues getting in and out. Staff is friendly and they have a small parking. Also accept debit/credit cards. There is a Lee's Sandwiches location nearby that I like to pick up baguettes from. Plan to return? 1/1Yeppers"
