THE GOOD: The overall prices saves me money…read more THE BAD: I know it is only temporary but the last two months have been like a scavenger hunt in a construction zone. The store has whole areas empty. I go in every Saturday morning and they are doing remodeling and updating. You have to hunt for the items you are looking for. If you ask for help the workers are just as confused as to where everything is. Not only have they moved the products - they have redefined what product belongs where. In example, the Rice a Roni is in a different row than the Noodle Roni where they used to be together. They have also removed the fish and deli counters and replaced them with all pre-packaged products. There are no longer small sizes of the deli items like Cole slaw and potato salad. You can no longer get thicker cuts of the deli meats. Once it is all done I am hoping it will be better but with the removal of the fish and deli counters it will never be as good as it once was.

So many great items tucked away in this humble little store.. and the shelves are well organized and clean! The employees are friendly and helpful if you approach them.

Great place in the AV to find the items you think you need to drive "down below" to find, and their prices are fair!

We always save the breading crumbs and eat them like chips at the end . As soon as you get in your car open the bag and container up so it doesn't get soggy on your drive home. Oh and try not to eat too much of it while you're driving lol. Service is good and prompt. I always call in advance so I don't have to wait too long but if you have shopping to do anyway you'll be fine. They also clean and fry fish here so can take care of dinner and groceries in one stop. The place is kept clean and well-stocked. This is my go-to if I'm looking for Asian or Filipino cuisine ingredients, but who am I kidding, I mostly come here for the calamares .

But before we get to that, let me just say how bad it sucks that the store always only has one cashier working. Anyways I went in there this morning, and the guy never said a single word to me, because a female coworker showed up right as the previous customer left, so I had to wait until the woman shut up before I had a chance to explain to him I had soda and water bottles on the bottom of the cart. But she wouldn't shut up. Instead of doing his job he just kept talking to her. I had to wait a full 5 mins before I could get a word in edgewise, and his response was just a grunt. Where do they find these people?? Hope I don't run into him again, because I WILL be saying something if I do and he behaves the same way.

Dear Gonzalez Meat Market Management,…read more I am writing to formally bring to your attention a concerning experience I had at your Lancaster, California location. My intent is to make you aware of several issues related to both food safety practices and customer service, as these are matters that directly impact public health and customer trust. First, I observed what appeared to be serious health code violations. During my visit, a staff member handled raw meat and then proceeded to touch other surfaces without properly washing or sanitizing their hands. Specifically: - Raw meat was transported from a neighboring location and handled in a way that created a risk of cross-contamination. - The individual handling the raw meat also handled the exterior of the bag, which can transfer bacteria. - Afterward, the same staff member touched cash from the register, soda cans, and prepared food items without changing gloves or washing hands. This sequence of actions raises concerns about cross-contamination and food safety, especially since customers directly consume these items. Secondly, I would like to address the customer service experience. At the time of my visit, there appeared to be insufficient staffing, with only one chef and one cashier managing a high volume of customers. As a result: - There were approximately 20 customers waiting, and service was significantly delayed (around 20 minutes or more). - Several customers ahead of me were still waiting when a customer who ordered after me received her food first, despite placing a larger order. - My order was simple (four carne asada tacos and Mexican rice), yet it took longer than expected without clear communication. Additionally, I was informed that the grill was down, which contributed to the delay. While I understand that unexpected issues can occur, this was not communicated proactively, and there was no effort made to accommodate or compensate for the inconvenience. I had requested grilled onions and grilled jalapeños, and given the delay and circumstances, it would have been a considerate gesture to provide these at no additional cost. Instead, I was charged and met with an unprofessional attitude when I raised concerns. Overall, the combination of potential health code violations and poor customer service created an experience that was both disappointing and concerning. I hope you take this feedback seriously and implement corrective measures to ensure proper food handling procedures and improved customer service moving forward. This place has strong potential, but a few operational improvements would really elevate the customer experience. During busy hours, more staffing and a clearer order system would help reduce long waits and ensure customers are served in the correct order. I'd also recommend reinforcing basic food safety practices like preventing cross-contamination between raw meat handling, cash handling, and food prep, as well as keeping the grill consistently running during service hours to avoid delays. Lastly, when delays happen, small gestures like complimentary items or waiving small add-ons can go a long way in maintaining customer satisfaction and loyalty. Sincerely, B. Orona Blackshire

As much as I wanna support my local meat market I'm afraid I've had enough. The produce is always…read moreso terrible, moldy and over priced. Every time I order meat they always over shoot the pounds on purpose, I asked for 2 pounds how did I end up with 4? And when I say something they take one piece out. I've also noticed they try to give me the stringy pieces instead of the actual pieces of meat. I also asked for 3 pieces of chicken and I saw the butcher sneak in a 4th piece as he was about to close the bag. I told him I said 3 and he said yes 3 but here I am with 4 pieces of meat. It's usually the older butchers that do this too not so much the younger ones. I order a certain amount for my family so it doesn't go to waste but I always end up with so much extra it's irritating.
