YAK...IT'S WHAT'S FOR DINNER! (Apologies to the Cattlemen's Beef Association) Bored of cooking the same old thing day in, day out, week after week? Come here for inspiration! This place is amazing! Everything is frozen, but, they have heat-n-eat, thaw-n-serve, soups, appetizers (snails in shell with garlic butter, anyone?), fish, fowl, meat, and offal! Even dessert! At least 4 different flavors of smoked salmon (gin and tonic? Mojito?) Pheasant, duck, dry aged, grass-fed beef! And, in the back corner of the store (which isn't very big) is a case of exotic ground meats! Bison, venison, ostrich, wild boar, kangaroo, and yes, YAK! It is in the same Plaza as Sprouts, so, over there next for fancy buns and home to get the charcoal grill fired up. We are eating good tonight! read more

Thought I would review some of the products that Wild Fork sales... Maryland Style Crab Cakes... I will pick up more of these, they are delicious, and two is just right for a growing boy! ;) (with some homemade Tartar Sauce) The Quinoa and Kale is easy to heat up... and pretty good. I did add salt and some hot chili spice I like to crank it up a bit, but this is a solid and easy side dish. read more

Pleasantly surprised at how great this place is! Value, quality and you can find a multitude of different products! My new favorite place to shop. The staff are around to help with any questions and gladly there to help you! Bright and extremely clean! read more

This place is awesome! The selection, the price, it's all amazing. And the quality of the beef was as described. I've always gotten my meats from Costco but the prices here beat Costco and the selection was better. This is going to become a typical spot for my meats. Everything is sealed and frozen well so you can keep them in your freezer as long as you need it. read more

Ordering and pick up was easy and they were super friendly. I however must have missed the part where everything is flash frozen. The bison roast we ordered was near inedible. And no it wasn't the cook. . I give it another shot tho based on price and know that I have knowledge. The ground beef was good, read more

This supermarket has excellent prices and is super clean!! Staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Selections range from exotic game meats (ostrich, bison, etc) to fancy meat (wagu steaks) to a large fish selections to kosher chicken. read more

Great store for high quality meats. I was look for some Portuguese sausage that we had during a recent trip to the Azore Islands and they had it. I will certainly be back when I need that special cut of meat. read more

I hate that Wild Fork, which I've been eyeing for a few years when they only had a Ft Lauderdale location, moved to Westchase (and Tampa period) after we sold our house to become nomads! I used to drive all the way to the east side of town to get goat, oxtail and lamb because frankly the Tampa 'burbs (Westchase, Carrollwood, Citrus Park) lacks diversity in meats. The only place nearby that I could find those meats were in Town n Country, but the quality of the meat in the Latin markets just aren't that good. I swear the moment we decided to put up our house for sale the "coming soon" sign went up. I still have some business and my doctors in the area. So I tend to stay near Westchase a few days when I'm back in town every 2-3 months. I can't help but visit Wild Fork if I'm cooking or if I'm driving up north instead of flying abroad to pick up some quality "exotic" meat. The flash freezing process allows for fantastic quality on the meat! Once you thaw it you would never know it was ever frozen. Buying tomahawk steak and wagyu here (if you ever feel like splurging) is at fair a price. I would even go as far as saying it's a bargain. There are also nice sides, seafood and seasoned meat choices. They have delivery as well...if I were in the states long enough I would totally get my meat delivered. I tried ordering ahead and picked up my Christmas Eve lamb and some seasonings I wanted to try...and ended up browsing through the store and getting Brisket that was already marinated in seasoning. I look forward to trying it! I remember when Wild Fork first opened I would be the only person in the store...and although it has never been crowded, it was nice seeing several other patrons when I shopped today. The secret is getting out! I'll always look forward to shopping at Wild Fork! read more

We love most of their products and if you have a large freezer or one in the garage like we do STOCK IT UP! Great prices and great service. Great company read more

Variety: A lot of exotic game to choose from including venison, bison, alligator, elk, and even yak. If you're in a pinch for something different start here. Prices: Competitive, especially the organic bag of frozen chicken $16 for 2.5 pounds. Someone could buy A5 Wagyu for $150 a pound, but the normal or even organic steaks are competitive with Whole Foods prices, maybe a few dollars less per a pound. Store itself: picture a large frozen foods area as an the entire store, incredibly clean white floors and perfectly organized. Staff: Friendly, very hospitable, and knowledgeable. Not for everyone: Nothing is fresh. I understand their business model is based on flash frozen foods, but items such as sausages could at least be refrigerated instead of frozen, or sauces for that matter. read more

Great quality frozen chicken. 5 lb bag of frozen chicken breast comparable price to 5lb package of fresh chicken from Walmart. Thawed beautifully. No large ice crystals tearing through the meat and minimal juices once thawed. read more

Wow!! I should have photographed my dinners but was too excited to consume! We purchased sockeye wild caught Atlantic salmon with skin and picanha cut black angus for about $35 The associate was very helpful, friendly and knowledgable. Husband cooked salmon with pepper, Tony's, and parsley on pellet grill at medium heat for about 15 minutes. Flaky moist and so delicious! Coated picanha with olive oil and spices, scored fat and cooked on pellet for 45 minutes 225 fat side down, flipped and cooked another 45 minutes. Finished in the oven broiling cap on high for about 7-8 minutes. Served with horseradish sauce. We will definitely return. read more

This updated review comes with positive comments from my husband, who is a kosher, butchers son. Since shopping at the store, we've had a chance to try several of the products and they are outstanding. The chimichurri seasoned skirt steak was dinner last night along with the potato au gratin and yes the raspberry beignets. All the products are frozen so of course thawing them is always been a question since my husband found a thawing tray, phenomenal easy. Everything is thawed in two hours at room temperature. This must have device is making my life a real pleasure. Back to the products, today we are going to have steak tips already prepared in a bag, sliced easy, sauté four minutes mushrooms. Very good quality meats very tasty. Easy to prepare. Yay dinner! You have a solid, faithful customer here. This is a must try to shop for anyone who wants the convenience of pull it out of the freezer and make it for dinner. read more

I visited the store based on reviews. We're looking for a butcher with quality and variety products. In addition, freshness and animal welfare rating (a good one) is also very important. Wild fork has an A+ on their animal wellness eating but no transparency. They don't specify and their employees only quoted what was already posted around the store. The staff were very nice and attentive. The store carries a wide variety of meats from different countries, but it's all frozen. The place has a sterile, Ikea like feel to it. They also fail to mention how long the meats have been frozen. What I mean by that is: meats can be frozen at the right temperature for years and customers won't know it. With that said, we left the store empty handed and won't return. My honest opinion. read more

My second visit to this Wildfork, and again, was like a kid in a candy store. I only set out to pick up a grassfed whole beef brisket to make a pastrami/corned beef with, but as happens with most everyone, I didn't bring and wear my blinders! I picked out a 12 pounder, but fyi, they also stock prime and choice brisket. I also found some nice wild caught jumbo Gulf shrimp, squid rings and tentacles, seafood mix, and hot Italian sausage, all at very fair prices. I did spy some Berkshire pork belly that I was tempted to buy, but I realized it wasn't going to fit in my freezer, so on my list for the visit, and there will definitely be more visits. Everything is vacuum sealed, so that saves me time and money doing that at home. Plenty of employees walking the floor offering their help to actually take you to what you're looking for, not just pointing. I see there's people pooing that everything's frozen, but I feel in actuality, frozen can be fresher than 'fresh'. There's many grocers that put out frozen product in the display case and the unassuming customer thinks it's fresh meat, and then they put it in the freezer when they get home. I love this place, as I have a lot to select from since I prefer grassfed meat, heritage pork, and wild caught seafood, all in one store. read more

I went and l bought a few things. When l got home l checked my receipt and l was charged twice for the skirt steak, $24.81. Since the store l guess doesn't have a phone, l had to call a 1(8...) number and they told l had to go to the store to get the credit. I live 30 minutes away so l said l wasn't going back and of course l was never going back or buying from this store. read more

What is wrong with this company?????!!! Yesterday I bought an item, brought it home and started the thawing process. When I checked on it today I saw that it has been out of date since February, 2023. Of course when I called their recording says they are too busy to answer the phone, (OBVIOUSLY NOT BECAUSE THEY ARE CHECKING DATES), but they will call back. No dice!!! No call. The toll free folks tell you to call the store. The store doesn't answer. Can anyone say CUSTOMER SERVICE? I pulled the item from my fridge and drove it back to Tampa, which is a considerable drive. The guy behind the counter had an "aw shucks" attitude, as did his co-worker. When I asked for the manager, she explained not returning the call away as she'd been in meetings all day....I guess she doesn't train her people to answer the phone which is like, the first thing most retailers do. She proceeded to give me a coupon for $10 or $20 off my next purchase. As if that will ever happen! I'm in the grocery business, but you don't have to be to see that there is plenty of competition. For all I care, Wild Fork can stick a fork in me 'cuz I am DONE!!! read more

Everything Everything FROZEN Not fresh Very pricey Clean staff great but this is an odd concept read more

What a surprise- I never expected such an assortment of meats, cuts, seafoods, wild game, non-meat alternatives and veggies all flash frozen and in single or large packages. Delivery is free up to 90 miles with $30 annual membership. Open until 9pm order online and pickup curbside. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Great location. Prices were better than I expected but all meat has gone up in price in the past two years. Highly recommend this for a special cut of meat or dinner party. read more

Finally an amazing place to shop for your meats. The addition of Wild Fork in this area makes shopping for food complete! We have awesome markets around the Westchase area but a good meat specialty store was missing until just now. The layout of the store it's very simple and convenient for clients to find what they need in a heartbeat (since everything it's labeled by the type of meats). They also have an area where they carry some not too common types of meats such as Alligator, Ostrich, Bison, etc. All the meats are preserved by being vacuum sealed and flashed frozen to keep their flavors intact. So if you need to cook/grill/smoke right away then you might get frustrated that you will have to take your time to let the precious cargo melt (NEVER force melt your meats). Overall, Wild Fork it's a nice addition to the area and for those who enjoy grilling and trying out some good cuts I would recommend dropping by to see if something catches your eyes. read more

I ordered food online for at home delivery. Ordered on Friday for Monday morning delivery for my weekly meal plan. Monday came and I received a notification that it was on the way. A few moments later I received a notice that it was undeliverable. Not sure how that was even possible unless they did not even attempt to deliver. I left explicit instruction on my address and how to get into my community. I did not receive a refund or a call from the delivery driver or the store. I called the store repeatedly. One of the stores said I needed to call a different store and gave me the number. I called that store and they said it was a different store. I called the other store they gave me the number to and no answer. I called every number I could find and it was either no answer or the wrong store. I finally called corporate, and they said they will try to find out what's going on and call me back, but I have yet to receive a call back! I'm extremely disappointed in this place and their competence. read more

Placed my first order and the driver elected not to deliver it when promised; however, one call and they sent my order same day. Great customer service!! read more

Amazing location, the quality of the food and offerings are amazing and the place is kept very clean! Definitely a local gem.

Wasn't what I expected... I was hoping for an amazing butcher with variety. Rather it feels like I'm shopping at ikea. Everything is frozen.

Great food and flavor. It's a small place, maybe 6 or 7 tables inside and two outside, with some seats at the bar. Service was okay especially with the new waitress. She is learning. There is no liquor wine or beer but it is BYOB. My wife and I were here for lunch and we had the Tallow fries with smoked chicken and collard greens. We also had their version of a steak sandwich with sauteed onions on fresh Cuban bread. All excellent. read more

Great variety of game meats, wild boar, ostrich, and bison. quality is top end and for the price, you can't beat it.

Was not used to this style of grocery store, but it was very easy to figure out Bought steaks, ground beef, bacon, hot dogs, hot dog buns, and steam-able vegetable packs All has been delicious and good quality read more
