Drove by a couple weeks ago when I noticed strong smells of smoky barbecue. Turns out they were celebrating the World Cup finals with a "Match Day Food Fest". The local ESPN radio station was there broadcasting live while highlighting all the free samples on display. Tents were set up outside to highlight cuisines from a handful of nations, including Argentina, Brazil, France, Japan, and the US. They even had tote bags given out for the team you support. Reps for the Big Green Egg were also serving up brisket made fresh off their grills. To top it off, gift cards were given out, luring you into the store to check out all their meats and seafood in stock. While the playlist outside was thumping with beats around the world, in here they played American pop music. They have an impressive selection, and the staff inside were all smiles and knowledgeable on suggested cuts and cooking techniques. read more

Been coming here before they had their grand opening. I won their first raffle and my picture is on the wall with my prizes. My go to is the chicken breakfast sausage, frozen not salted edamame, hotdogs are the best because they don't taste salty, crepes, frozen purée ginger and turmeric, and escargot is delicious. They sell any animal you can eat like elk, gator, buffalo, venison, quail and different types of fish you are not going to find in your typical market. They have yummy desserts too. This place used to be a Ruby's diner, but I don't miss it at all. The customer service here can be hit or miss but when you do get it, they are very friendly and always willing to help. read more

I was introduced to Wild Fork from a Yelp event then returned. I love the concept and price of everything in this store. When I talk to people about it I try to explain that it's close to Costco prices without the excessive portions. They have nearly every meat and seafood, as well as sides and desserts for you to decide from. It's essentially a one stop shop when you consider their beef tallow spray, seasonings, and everything. The store is neatly organized so you can go to poultry, sausages, specific cuts of beef, seafood, etc. It's a dream. The staff are always around to help with ideas for meals if you need it as well. I had to share a favorite steak buy of mine because what a deal for two steaks read more

Five star service from the staff at the Long Beach location. Upon entering I was greeted by Stevie, who welcomed me with a smile and graciously gave me a tour of the store. Being my first time in a Wild Fork, Stevie made many recommendations on different meats, cuts, prepared items and desserts. His knowledge on the concept of flash frozen shifted my perception. Flash frozen locks in nutrients, flavor, and texture by forming tiny ice crystals that preserve cellular integrity, making food often healthier and tastier than "fresh" food that sits out. Needless to say, I walked out with a bag full of veggies, herbs, fish, and desserts for around $60. Prices are incredible for the quality too! read more

Still a great place to shop for the frozen meats (marinated & non marinated) and specify meats plus they do have spices, veggies, and desserts...of course all frozen. Great staff, friendly & happy to help you. Clean place and easy & big parking lot. read more

I've shopped at Wild Fork on several occasions and will continue to do so. They offer great deals on meats and seafood. They also have friendly staff; the store is clean and well-organized as well. read more

Erica gave us the best service - ever! She was so knowledgeable about what they sold and then when we decided what to - she took the time to get steaks that were equal in size, a lobster at the perfect weight. It was food for our anniversary and really helped make our anniversary special. We will be going back for a Labor Day weekend to see what looks good or what she recommends. We don't know if she was a manager but she was definitely "a BOSS" Thanks Erica!!! read more

Let me start by saying this up front: Wild Forks isn't a restaurant... but if it was, I'd definitely be a regular! This place is more like the "bougie" boutique of meat markets--and I mean that in the best way possible. The store was immaculately clean, beautifully organized, and the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. Whether you know exactly what you're looking for or just want to explore, they've got you covered. You'll find everyday essentials like premium cuts of beef, chicken, and pork, but what really makes Wild Forks stand out is their more adventurous selection: frog legs, alligator meat, rabbit, veal, quail--you name it, they probably have it. It's like a meat lover's playground. If you're looking for high-quality, specialty meats, or just want to feel a little extra while shopping for your next BBQ, Wild Forks is definitely the place. read more

What an incredible find - this is the meat shop of my dreams. It's well laid out with reasonable prices and am extensive selection, evening from beef, chicken, pork, fish, and shellfish to things like alligator and ostrich. I was given plenty of space and time to shop, with gentle occasional check-ins from the staff. I bought a lobe of foie gras and couldn't believe it was $10. It was my first time cooking it but at that price, I was less terrified about messing it up. It turned out incredible. Wild Fork is easy to get to by bus which means it will be my first stop for meats from now on. Next up, the picanha! read more

Amazing store and top notch service. Great choices on meat, seafood, easy weeknight meals at a price point that is in line with my budget.

By luck I ran into an employee named Paras and he was kind enough because I had no idea about Wild Fork, to tell me about store and where and how the meats were taken care of. He told me to ask for assistant manager Eurica and she would take me around store to show me around. WOW!! Amazing!! She's so great and explained how the meat was flash frozen, how to find deals in the store. My husband and I loved the Family chicken pot pie, we also got lobster stuffed salmon, other meets too. We both are completely satisfied with the quality!! Best quality and prices!! I will now only come here from my meat needs!! Beautiful store, service. So happy I finally went in, if you are iffy about going in! You have too!!! If you have questions ask employees they are so helpful!!! Loved this store!! read more

Wild Fork is my go-to for premium meats that are fresh and high quality. Every visit and every location, I am always satisfied with the selection of meats, poultry, and fish that they have in stock. I have been to a lot of the other locations and this one is my favorite. Make sure to check out the calendar to see when this location has events. Our last visit, they were barbecuing the skirt steak that they sell. They use the seasonings that they sell to showcase their products. The staff here are also great. The lady at the register basically knows us because we are here often and she always tells us she will see us next week every time we walk out. Great quality meats, great prices, and great service. I will def be back! read more

Wild Fork, located in Long Beach, is a pretty new addition to 2nd street and Studebaker. Prices are reasonable and they have so many options for exotic meats like elk and bison, offals (organ meat), premium steak cuts (picanha, wagyu cuts, skirt steak), marinated meats, and seafood. Their meat is blast frozen after being butchered and they're stored in freezers. I think this is a pro and it's a con. The pro is that you get access to a wide variety of proteins that are preserved at peak flavor and at a reasonable price. The con is the inconvenience of having to defrost whatever you buy here for 24+ hours (if you let it defrost in the fridge). Nevertheless, I was pretty happy with being able to get a pound of picanha, 2.5lbs of chicken thighs, 2lbs of tilapia, 1lb marinated ground chicken, sticky toffee pudding, and marinated beef for tacos for ~$35. I definitely would not be able to get that type of value at Ralphs. And, if I went to costco, then I would have gotten the same type of value, but I would have spent $150 for 5x the portion size. I definitely think that Wild Fork is a meat market that I can work into my rotation! read more

9/6 One year anniversary bbq bash! Lots of great samples! We come whenever I have freezer space.

Wild Fork - One year anniversary BBQ - Meat Shops Near Me - Long Beach, California

I was curious about Wild Fork and found that they carry a variety of blast frozen meat and seafood, including meat and seafood that's hard to find at your everyday grocery store. You'll also find frozen vegetables, burger buns, dessert, sides, and spices. Overall, prices are comparable. I shop at Wild Fork for their wild caught seafood and have tried Sockeye Salmon, Chilean Sea Bass fish, Snapper, and Tuna. The Chilean Sea Bass was absolutely delicious. I have also tried their Bison and veggie bean burgers which were pretty good as well. In general, I'm more interested in buying organic, hormone and antibiotic free meats. Unfortunately, in the way of chicken this is not offered. Overall, great service and worth a visit if you're in the area. This location is conveniently located near Trader Joe's. read more

Every time I go here, I am more and more impressed. Everything we get there is seriously delicious! Like even the potatoes! All they are is potatoes and oil, WHY ARE THEY SO DELICIOUS! My husband always makes ribs and the ribs from her are somehow so much better? The kids love everything I've ever made from there. The store is super organized and easy to navigate. I really hope this place lasts because it seems like it never has many people in there. Or maybe that's just because I go at like 2:40 on week days after school lol Anyways, check it out. Me, Wild Fork, and my air fryer have been holdin it downnn for dinner lol read more

My new favorite place to shop for meats. Some stuff here I could say is a better value than Costco because most of, if not all, of their beef is dry aged. They have many exotic meats like alligator, ostrich, veal, and others. I usually get picanha here and haven't had a bad experience yet. I have done 10 hour+ smoked pork belly, brisket, and beef ribs from here and they all are great quality and come out just the way I want them to. Workers are all helpful and nice and they sometimes have decent deals worth checking out. read more

Watched Wild Fork being built (former Ruby's site) over the past year. I'm very excited they finally opened this week! I reviewed their online offerings to help me with my first visit. I decided ahead of time what I would purchase vs check out for the future. The store is very clean and organized. Everything (except dry spices) is nicely displayed and accessed in aisles of freezers. Organized by meat or fish types. Veggie and fruit options. And wait for it, yummy baked goods! Parking is ample and easy. I strongly recommend you read online about their freezing process. Prices are very good but don't expect "frozen" prices. Fresh frozen. Seafood often is fresh frozen and then thawed in the grocery case when you buy it "fresh". Instead, you are doing the thawing! They have a large variety of meats. Tri-tip seasoned a few different ways or plain. Skirt seasoned and unseasoned (usually I drive far for good skirt). Brisket and even flat cut brisket. Lots of seafood and shell fish. I will need to update this review after I try some of the items purchased. So far, we consumed an 8-pack of berry filled beignets. So good, just thaw and eat. Powdered sugar still intact after freezing and thawing? Amazing. I can't wait to grill up the Swordfish pieces, perfect serving sizes too! Very happy to have this new place so close by and in the LBC! read more

Great selection of meats, seafood, desserts, and sides. You can even find wild game meats such as venison, bison, elk, gator, ostrich. This is the only place I know of that sells fois gras slices. Prices are sometimes confusing, hence my 4 four star rating since I was not convinced by the staff's explanation of the spiny lobster tails. Conveniently located near other grocery stores such as Whole Foods, Gelson's, Ralph's, and Trader Joe's. Clean interior. read more
