    Build your own sandwich. Turkey, salami, pepperchini, tomato, provolone, mustard and mayo on Dutch Crunch.

    Alright, folks, gather 'round, because I'm about to spill the beans (and maybe a little wagyu juice) on a local gem that deserves all the hype. If you haven't yet discovered Milo's, consider this your official, friendly nudge in the right direction. First off, let's talk about the heart of the operation: the family behind it. The owner and his wife are genuinely two of the friendliest faces you'll ever encounter. It's clear they pour their heart and soul into this place, and it shows in every bite. Their employees have also always been very friendly and helpful. Now, for the main event(s). They've recently added takeout sandwiches, and let me tell you, these aren't your average sad little bread-and-a-prayer situations. My sandwich was so packed with meat, It was glorious, delicious, and frankly, a feat of engineering to get into my mouth. But the real MVP, the undisputed champion, the reason my nose is constantly twitching like a bloodhound's? Their chicken. I swear, when a neighbor is BBQing Milo's chicken (yes, I know the smell, don't judge), that smoky, sweet aroma wafts through the breeze and immediately triggers a response in me. It's so good, it should come with a warning label: "May cause extreme hunger and spontaneous backyard BBQ envy." And then there's the wagyu. Oh, the wagyu. If you're a fan of tender, juicy, melt-in-your-mouth perfection, prepare for a religious experience. It's not just "chef's kiss," it's "chef's full-blown passionate embrace." Seriously, it's so good, I'm pretty sure it whispered sweet nothings to my taste buds. We made the most amazing wagyu quesadillas and I just can't look at a regular quesadilla the same anymore. So, whether you're craving a sandwich and don't want the chain places with the cheap tasting meat, chicken that smells like pure happiness, or wagyu that will make you question all your previous life choices, do yourself a favor and visit Milo's. You'll be supporting a wonderful family, and your taste buds will send you a thank-you card. Just don't blame me if you start sniffing your neighbors' backyards for that chicken smell!

    First time in this place and the staff was very help in what I wanted as well as their recommendations. The meat quality was perfect and I couldn't have a picked a better cut. The market itself is very clean and organized with seasonings to complement your bbq or preparations. I will definitely be coming back when I'm in the area. Thanks guys!!

    WOW! Love this little gem of a butcher shop! Exceptional selection of prime meats & all of it beyond tasty! So far I've enjoyed a succulent pork belly that rendered crispy skin and juicy meat, ribeyes that melted in our mouths, tonight: thick cut NY Strips! I am totally committed to doing this research to help anyone wondering! The shop has a nice selection of produce and of course, MY favorite hot sauces! Definitely recommend stopping by and getting yourself some fine meats! You deserve it!

    The nicest people ever! Hidden gem. Open 3 months now. The owner and his wife are there. I is as thrown off and did not see the digital prices on the screen. The owner wa busy, but the nicest guy helped me. I always go for seafood. $8.99/lb deveined and shelled shrimp. $7.99/lb shelled shrimp $20.99/lb large scallops $29.99/lb crab legs. Very large. I have no clue about cuts of meat. This man took the time to go threw all beef cuts with me. I ended up with the marinated strip steak. I want to cook It all right now!

    Ribeye tastiness.

    Really nice place. Super clean. Super friendly people. Super good quality. A friend ours, from out of town, spent some time with us and wanted to make us a steak dinner. I don't usually cook steaks cause, frankly they make me nervous. They're expensive and I get pretty worried and stressed about messing them up. So our friend gave me a steak lesson. We got 3 ribeye steaks. On top of not liking to cook steaks, they're really not my favorite thing to eat. BUT. They turned out super tasty. That crust on them. Yum. I'd eat them again.

    Do they sell a slab of pork rib for BBQing? If they do how much will it cost?

    They sell pork ribs, both baby back and St. Louis style, for $4.49 per pound. Your cost would be based on the weight of the rack of ribs. I'm guessing a rack of ribs would cost around $15.

After circling the quaint butcher/deli we made our decision and purchased the jalapeño cheddar sausage, garlic artichoke sausage, thick cut smoked bacon, beef short ribs and Asian sensation beef jerky. We haven't tried everything yet but the sausages were very good! We warmed them in a pan with a tad bit of water and enjoyed their snap when eaten. The jalapeño cheddar was mildly spiced and the cheese was oh so gooey goodness. The garlic artichoke was absolutely delightful. It had the punch of garlic yet artichoke flavor. Both are definitely keepers full of robust ingredients with great snap and juiciness. The beef jerky was the bomb with great zip and perfect texture. Next on the list to cook is the bacon for BLT's and short ribs on the Q for a Korean dinner. We don't live in the area of Freedom Meats and didn't think of bringing a cooler but we were provided ice at no charge.

For a period of time, I was getting my wagyu steaks from Costco for a stellar price per pound when it was in-stock, but they stopped carrying it for a year and a half so it was time to find someplace else to get my wagyu fix. I decided one day to check out this carniceria after walking home from the local farmer's market and lo and behold, my precious wagyu strip steak was staring back at me whispering to buy it. You bet I bought the steak and on a whim too lol. It even came with a certificate of authenticity and a very nice paper bag! The market inside is very spacious and it's clear to me that they keep their store pretty clean as it did have a bleach-like odor. While their primary focus is selling various cuts of "elite" meat, they also offer a selection of marinated protein, and accoutrements. After securing the goods, my husband grilled that baby up and we devoured every sliver of medium rare goodness. It's fatty but in the best way possible and a little goes a long way in terms of getting and staying full. I will definitely be coming back here to try out other cuts of meat!

Also call prior to going, if you're stopping by right when they open or a few min prior to closing. I've stopped by before to find their store surprisingly closed during their "store hours".

Everything in my life changed. I never used to eat at McDonalds, but after I got out of the hospital, I eat there a lot (it's all I can afford - if that) and I'm always trying to pay attention to the McD points so I can get more food. That being said, going to Chama is either because of some miraculous unplanned result, or deliberately saving money for the better part of a year. The worst result of my new life with these injuries is I can't take care of M as much as I'd like. We did take M to Chama for her birthday a couple years ago and she has always been wanting to go back every day since then. Recently, she requested to choose where we would have dinner, and in addition she said we couldn't change her mind. We weren't even sure until we arrived that she had chosen Chama (so that implies Chama is her favorite restaurant - even though she's been to a lot of nice places including in Monterey and on the ocean side). We could only afford to get just M a meal and Grace was really nervous that us being on a really obvious budget and being out of place would cause the staff to be upset or impatient with us. Actually, the staff was super nice and accommodating to M, and to all of us. That could only happen because the Chama staff and Terry our waitress treated us like family. If you put me at the McD ordering kiosk, I'm pretty good at navigating my way through ordering and making sure I use up my points before they expire. But we were lost as to how ordering worked at Chama, and I couldn't remember anything I learned from the last couple times before when I was there. Terry was really patient explaining how to order, and helped M choose a meal option / buffet that was perfect for her. All three times I've been there the staff has been great. Recently was M's second time and we appreciated that the staff would be so kind to a child. There's something special and permanent about a child's memory eating at their favorite restaurant in the world. We appreciate that Chama staff and Terry made the effort to make that dinner magical and inviting. We have a really good memory now of a family together having that amazing experience. I like M had an unusual opportunity to plan our evening and restaurant choice, she did make the plans, and she had such a memorable shared adventure and outcome. Thank you!
