Came in one day to try the sausage sandwich deal they had posted up on a sign right outside as you…read morewalk in. The sausage seemed dry, old and not as good as it is when I make it at home. It did come with a tiny foam cup of banana pudding, potato salad some beans. They put a side of onions and pickles for the sandwich in a baggie. I was kind of excited to try the banana pudding, I was alright, was kind of stressed about my sandwich falling out of the bag earlier but I still liked it, I wasn't able to enjoy it like i would have if that didn't happen. The paper bag the guy put it in was wet for some reason, the BBQ sauce on the sandwich somehow leaked or it might of been the beans busted in the bag not sure what one was the issue but the sandwich meat n BBQ sauce fell out onto the floor and he replaced it without hesitation. His boss. I'm assuming ? She came over to make sure he was doing a good job as he was remaking the sandwich or was just curious what was wrong? No idea but she whispered something n he handed me back my food all fixed. Won't be getting the sandwich again. Really liked the jalapeno sausage from the case, they wrapped it up in half pound packages for me, chorizo was good. The venison jerky was vacuumed sealed. I keep a pack in my car for emergency traffic munchies, lol. They sell Divinity candy here and pecan pralines, cotton candy. I plan on coming here for my turkey this year for thanksgiving. "Cajun fried turkey" I never had a fried turkey before I'm going to trust this to them. Keeping my fingers crossed.

I walked into Choice Meat Market on Saturday morning ( 9/9/2023) and I bought an 18.53 lbs brisket…read moreand I asked them if they can smoke my brisket and they said it would take about 10hrs to smoke and they said come pick it up at 12 noon on Sunday and when I arrived on Sunday at 12 noon the cashier said can you please come back within the hour ( 1pm) I returned and when I got my brisket, " IT LOOKED OLD AND COLD"!! I WILL NEVER RETURN TO YOUR ESTABLISHMENT and I bought some additional items and paid over $250 on meats.. Someone told me they have NEW OWNERS.. I had family and friends over and they said it SUCKED!!

This is an amazing store that you need to experience. Are you ready for a quick and easy…read moredescription? A Mexican meat market with great hot foods owned by a Persian! I mean you can't make this stuff up! This is really the beginning of an American success story that you want to be a part off. Everybody welcomes you as you go through the store. On the right is a small seating area where you enjoy a hot meal. You can order some of the best Mexican food and tacos right in this store. On the right side you will package deals for meat packages. The prices are great for the cuts and amount of food. You continue through a packed grocery store section but not before you pass by the freshly cut meat section. A very large selection of meats here! Then what I found the most interesting part of my visit was to meet the young owner- Mahdi! It was refreshing to hear his story. Here is a former NYC banker with a Master degree in statistics. WHAT!!??!! Having a conversation over cultures, business, politics and the future is worth coming and supporting Mahdi not to mention the good food.

Love the food here. Very authentic and delicious, although I recommend going earlier in the day…read more I have been going here for years and have never had a racist experience in the least. You have to go up to the counter and speak up, that's all. They don't ask you they just wait for you to say something. I don't speak spanish and I don't look in the least bit Mexican/Latin origin and have never suffered quality of service or food because of it. Just point to what you want. The most complicated question I get is flour or corn tortillas in spanish, and I just respond in english, no big deal. The menudo here is the bomb.

They have the MEATS! I received a gift card from family and finally got my rear in gear to check…read moreit out this last weekend. They have quite a selection of everything here. They have freezer sections, fresh cuts, vacuum sealed items, I'd even go as far as saying that if you needed something off-menu, they might be able to hook you up. The folks behind the counter were very patient, and super efficient. We ended up leaving with two maple blueberry breakfast sausages, two decent sized New York Strip steaks, 2 girthy Who Dat Balls, 2 giant stuffed chicken breasts (one Italian, one 4 cheese), a dozen boudin stuffed tamales, and two thiccc vac-sealed brisket burgers. Even so, there so much more to go back for. Luckily this joint sits right along the route to family, and we will be back for more. They have an array of your usual meats, plus a plethora of exotic and wild meats, and accompaniments. Some of their items can come pre-seasoned or pre-rubbed. Parking is easy on a weekend, but could be tight during rush. They also have a customer service reward program, so get your stamp on. I'll update after I have cooked some of the foods, and sampled more of the inventory.

OMG! They have a serious butcher shop. I mean this is definitely not for rookies like we are…read more The cuts were numerous but very Mexican. Meat cuts are not the same worldwide. Trust me we have traveled enough to say such a statement. We wanted a certain cut of shoulder pork that is common in Puerto Rican cuisine. It also must have the skin to make crackling. I was so impressed with the butchers and their super friendly desire to serve us poor knuckleheads. I highly recommend them for Mexican cuisine items. We came out a bit shell "culture " shocked. I will come back after being better prepared next time.

Herbert's Specialty Meat Market is such a great Houston spot for Cajun food. They have a huge…read moreselection of easy meals to take home, including deboned chickens stuffed with rice, crawfish, or shrimp, along with gumbo, étouffée, boudin balls, and plenty more. Everything I've tried has been excellent. It's especially great for stocking the freezer with something you can pull out later in the week for an easy dinner that still feels like a real meal. Everyone I've recommended it to has loved what they've tried as well. This location is great, although one thing to know is that it doesn't serve hot prepared meals like their other location does, where you can get a full plate with things like chicken, étouffée, collard greens, and other sides. I do wish they offered that here too. For Cajun food in Houston, especially something you can take home and cook yourself, this is one of my favorite places. I recommend it all the time and would go back in a heartbeat. It really feels like a local staple, and I'm glad we have it in Houston.

Herbert's Specialty Meats on Richmond near the Galleria instantly took me back home. The moment you walk in, the number of items from Louisiana is delightful Their boudin, seasonings, and prepared items reminded me so much of my grandmother's gumbo, boudin, and rich, slow-cooked stews--comfort food that warms your soul. You can taste the authenticity and love in everything they make. This is the kind of place that understands balance, spice, and tradition. Customer service was excellent--friendly, patient, and genuinely happy to help you find exactly what you're craving. There are tons of choices, whether you're stocking up for a cookout or just grabbing something to satisfy that Cajun craving. For anyone missing Louisiana flavors or wanting the real deal in Houston, Herbert's is a must-stop. It feels like a little piece of "The Boot"
