Various cuts of meat
Nick C.

You got carne? I know I do. And I get it from Ziggy's. This neighborhood gem has been serving up the best chorizo, ranchera and other cuts of carne before I was born. My whole family and local friends have been coming here for decades to get the best ranchera you can find anywhere. I live across the street from here so of course I do too. Ziggy's also has some produce and other grocery items as well. Picked up some ingredients for papita con huevo. Later on I'll be making kakita con pdo. - Ranchera here is a must. I have been to a few carnicerias around town and no one has it as good as Ziggy's. It's always tender, trimmed with little to no fat. Seasoning is perfect although I wish they still added more onions to it. - Chorizo is top tier chorizo. Other people who know come from a long ways away just to get it here. I used to not like the chorizo as much due to the cinnamon in the seasoning that threw me off a bit but I think they toned it down a bit. Its delicious. - Guacamole is made fresh and in my opinion the best you can get. It's pricey but very flavorful. - Secret move. If you get chuletas de puerco for the grill, get them with adobada. Trust.

I stopped by Ziggy this morning to get some ranchera carne and chicken. My wife really loves the way they marinate the carne and chicken here. The best advice to avoid the long line is to come early or when they just open like I did. It's street parking but if you come in the morning, you should find a spot easily. They already had a line before the store officially open. They also speak English too so that was great for me. I got a total of 8 pounds of ranchera asada and 4 pounds of chicken. The staff here are very nice and you can have small talk while they prepare your meat. I also had to get some tomatoes and green chilies that my wife wanted for the salsa. They have other stuff here as well so they just aren't a meat place. You're paying for quality here so its not cheap.

I used to come to Canyon Country all the time, and I honestly can't believe I never noticed this…read morehidden gem! I was craving Boar's Head pepper turkey, and they had me sold pretty quickly! Once you walk in, you'll find a great selection of deli meats and other quality meats they sell. What really made the experience even better was Angel at the front. He truly lives up to his name! Such a sweetheart, super welcoming, helpful, and really took the time to listen to what I wanted while offering great recommendations. They have indoor seating, but since it was such a beautiful day, I decided to sit outside. Even though I wasn't directly in their line of sight, they still made the effort to come out, check on me, and make sure I was enjoying my food. It's little things like that that really make a difference! It's a little on the pricier side, but honestly, worth every penny! Between the delicious food, quality meats, and amazing customer service, I have nothing but good things to say. Definitely a place I'll be coming back to!

What really makes this place special is the experience of walking into a small-town butcher shop where people take pride in what they do and give you first-class treatment. That kind of personal attention makes every visit a pleasure. Bob's is a little piece of Americana--a business that reminds you how much quality, community, and good service matter. I'm grateful we still have places like this.

If you're craving Mediterranean food, this place is a must-try. Can't wait to order again!

This is the cheapest thing any restaurant I've ever been to or from ordered has done…read more Ordered 2 kabob plates through Uber Eats. $67. Fine no problem. I asked for no tomato and no pepper, they were cool with that. Less items to put. I asked in the comments if possible to put lavash instead of pita. These CHEAP people replaced the pita with less than a quarter bag of lavash and adjusted my total by adding $5. How cheap do you have to be to do this? I've been ordering from them for over a year since we moved to the neighborhood. Never again. So no refund for the items I didn't want right? But to replace one type of flat bread with another you guys charge $5? To someone who already spent $67 on 2 plates. Have some self respect and dignity. And to clarify no I didn't ask for lavash on top of pita. It was please put lavash INSTEAD of pita. And if that's what you all were going to do. Why not send a whole sealed bag??? Cheap!

We were sitting in the middle of the restaurant so not close to where the patio is but we were all still really hot.
