Back in 1984, the big slogan across America was "Where's The Beef?". Well I think that has been…read moreanswered as this is one of the best places I've purchased beef in quite some time. Even though the majority of meat I purchase is at a grocery store (Raley's, Nugget, Safeway, etc.) or a warehouse-type store (Costco, WinCo, etc.), you just can't beat the quality of a family-owned butcher shop. This takes me to the one and only "Kings Meats" that has only been in operation since 2020 but in that amount of time, they've gained hundreds of new customers. Located in the El Dorado community of Diamond Springs, they are relatively close to Highway 49 and roughly 10 minutes south of Placerville and Interstate 50. I came here during the afternoon of Friday 5/16/25 at around 2:45pm. And as expected, the parking lot here was quite full with vehicles stocking up on some amazing meats. Keep in mind that if you do plan on coming here (especially from out of town), they are closed on Monday/Tuesday but open from 10am-6pm Wednesday-Saturday and 10am-5pm on Sunday. Once entering the building, I was absolutely amazed and quite impressed with how clean and tidy this place was. There was at least 4 employees working behind the counter and they all took their time in making sure every customer was helped. As for the meats, this place has everything you're looking for; ground beef, ground chuck, skirt steak, sirloin steak, New York steak, ribeye, spare ribs, pork belly, pork tenderloin, bacon, sausage, hot links, and so much more than I didn't even mention. During my visit, I stocked up and spent WAY more than I had anticipated; at least $200 worth of food. I mainly bought steak, ground beef, bacon, and some pork. Jump forward 3 weeks later (after a Memorial Day BBQ & other dinners) and the quality of their food is absolutely top-notch. It was so good to a point where it is better than a premium steakhouse or high-end burger joint. And for those pescatarians, they even have a decent seafood selection here (crab, salmon, oysters, etc.). Truth be told, I used to do my meat shopping at V. Miller (in Sacramento) until they closed in March 2025 as well as a few other butcher shops in the area. After a fellow Yelper told me about Kings Meats, I took his advice and glad I did. The quality (and even very reasonable prices) of the cuts of meat are some of the best I've had in years. Whether you grill, pan fry, or roast your meat, I am a firm believer that this place will meet your expectations. With that said and done, I am giving "Kings Meats" a picture perfect five-star rating.

As soon as we walked in we were warmly greeted with lovely smiles and 'Welcome In' by the young ladies behind the counter. I had some questions about their products and one of the butchers working in the back came over. He explained how they work, answered all of my questions and said they stand by their products, if we don't see something to please ask. We bought some steak and ground beef to try and boy, there's no comparison to supermarket meat, this was so flavorful. We stopped in today and pickup up some pork chops and ordered 5 pounds of ground beef and some steak. They are even thinly slicing the steak for us - now that's service for you! I grew up in the 50's in Europe and this shop brought me right back to that time where service and products were always top notch, and the family butcher took pride in his work and would cut or trim my mother's orders to suit. I think we'll stop looking now: we have our family butcher in The Country Butcher.

Shortly after making my purchase, I noticed suspicious activity on my card. Unauthorized charges began appearing almost immediately after I used it at this store. Because of this, I had to contact my bank and file a police report. I also reported the situation to the store, but the entire experience has left me feeling extremely uneasy. I cannot say for certain how my information was compromised, but the timing is very concerning. Please be cautious if you choose to shop here and monitor your accounts closely. I personally will not be returning.

Can be hit or miss with the meat, cows milk was spoiled more than once, there's always a rotten odor in the store, never answer the phones and the ladies who answer just might hang up on you.

This store doesn't seem to care to work on their in store flaws.
