Steak was seasoned nicely and the Amoroso bread was a nice chewy and toasty combination. Everyone in the shop was genuinely friendly. I love that the restaurant gave this neighborhood artisan vibe.

I wanted to make pizza so I got the spicy Italian & pepperoni sausages for it, and both of them were soooo tasty. Three sausages + the $6 basil pesto totaled a little over $18. Of course $12 for three sausages isn't particularly sustainable for a lot of us, but when it's a special occasion or you're wanting to treat yourself, it's very worth it :) The staff is great, and the place is located in an area a lot of parking and close to balboa. The basil pesto was also really yummy, I added a little lemon to it because I love a little more citrus in mine and it really made all the flavors pop.

American Customs allows you to bring back marinated flank steak to the US, so pick up some extra for home use. All you have to do is pick up a sack of mesquite charcoal from any store in Rosarito Beach and start a very hot fire. Pick up some fresh tortillas from any local supermarket along with some fresh salsa (salsa cruda). Toss these steaks on the grill and you are an instant expert in Mexican cuisine. Applause, Applause, Applause. Pablo's and Alicia's - accept no substitute. Muy authentico. It supplied every tardeada, boda and Quinceañera I have attended in Baja.

He's giving me his childish version of evil eye. I don't appreciate some paranoid butcher treating me like a criminal because of a quick photo session OUTSIDE the store. At least he succeeded at showing how unprofessional and disrespectful he is. It's pointless to shop at a store where I'm treated like crap. I'll buy my meat elsewhere.

Today, I ordered the Steak Tip and Fries (6oz. Marinated Angus Steak Tip). The steak was cooked to perfection (medium rare). And the fries were cooked in beef tallow- chef's kiss! The quality of meat and seasoning was unparalleled 10/10! Super tender and juicy and packed with tons of flavor! My wife ordered the Smashed Burger and Fries (Sliced House Marinated Angus Steak Tips with Grilled Onions and Peppers). The beef patty had a really nice sear on the outside and caramelized crust 10/10! Prices are reasonable! And staff are super friendly and helpful! And the vibe is lively! I have yet to order any fresh cuts of meat from the butchers- that's definitely on my to-do list! First impressions- these guys are the real deal! It's pretty evident they bring the highest quality ingredients to their customers! I would recommend this spot to anyone looking to buy top grade, high quality meats and delicious food!
