There's no signage for this place out front so driving by you'll never see it. Use your GPS and go around back you'll see a small sign near the door there all the meat is stored in a big freezer type refrigerator thing and you just dig through it for what you want. Service is minimal unless you really have to ask questions. All the meat is clearly labeled so just dig in and take what you want. Prices are about average.

They were kind enough to sneak a couple onto the grill for us, which was an amazing gesture. The hot dogs were absolutely delicious, served on a high-quality bun shipped directly from the East Coast (the same ones they use for their Philly cheesesteaks). It was a fantastic, flavorful surprise. As you can see from the photo, my wife thoroughly enjoyed diving right into that massive foot-long! The service was top-notch, the food was spectacular (such great quality and flavor), and they truly care about their customers. We will absolutely be returning and highly recommend this spot to anyone in the Seaside area! Thank so much, its really a pleasure to find a crew that love their trade !

The dining area is in the back of a bodega/liquor store, with a countertop where you can dine at. I saw the "Mediterranean food" sign up, so I had to try it, given so few options on the peninsula. The majority of the menu is Mexican fare, so come here for that too. The lamb slices were the star of the show, they were made and cooked perfectly. A little crisp, very meaty and savory. The rice was made like traditional Mexican rice and the salad was made before my eyes, with radishes, cucumbers, broccoli and other vegetables. It's pricey for halal food, but worth it. I'll come back for the baklava! Price: $25 (w/ 20% tip)

He proceeded to grab a tortilla and asked me if I wanted a burrito with the same glove covered hands he was just handling raw meat with. I shook my head in disgust.

He then proceeded to take his gloves off visibly upset. I could see sweat come out the latex gloves and on to the food prep counter. There was a bit more, but I feel you should get the point of this review. I turned around and walked away.

Every time we drive home from Monterey, I always see the big red Yelp sign that reads best BBQ…read more That sign did its' job and it got me intrigued and grabbed my attention. We finally got the chance to check it out. We arrived on a Saturday afternoon for lunch. The Prunedale Market is located along side the highway 101 freeway in the small town of Prunedale. It just takes a few long right turns to get there. Parking is easy and accessible out in the front parking lot. From the front, the market does not look like a popular BBQ spot. It looks like a simple small market store to grab quick snacks and drinks. Once inside there is a BBQ and deli section to your right. A small dining area is to your left. The decor is old fashioned and quaint. The 2 gentlemen greet you with friendly hospitality. We ordered the Tri tip sandwich, half slab of ribs which includes 2 potatoes and a cup of corn chowder. The pit master/owner Martin, who use to work for Original Joe's, was kind enough to also include a quarter chicken leg, a sausage, and extra ribs. It was so much food for our party of 3. Everything was delicious and hearty. The Tri tip sandwich was scrumptious with the flaming Fritos adding a nice crunchy texture and kick with every bite. The ribs were juicy and smokey. Potatoes complemented very well with the rest of the meat and chicken. Corn chowder was so tasty and creamy. I did not know corn chowder was that good. Overall we enjoyed our experience at the Prunedale Market. The staff were super nice and accommodating. They even offered for our son to grab some free ice cream to go. We politely declined. The prices were very reasonable. All that food fed us for the next 2 days. Lol. We hope to be back when we are in the area with other friends and family.

The cashier is never wearing a mask and some employees in the meat department don't either. Its hard to support a small business when they obviously don't care for the safety of their customers.
