I bought me from this company with my last of my food stamps on June 9th of this year and I quickly put all the meat which cost me around $80.00. today I defrosted some steaks and it smelled spoiled like a dead animal. I went to speak to the manager she was not there. I spoke to cashier in charge and she gave me attitude while asking for my receipt I told her I don't have it why would I still have my receipt after a month is almost over and with a cold heart she said well we can't help you. Even though they have cameras to prove I was there on the 9th of June between 2pm and 3pm. So if you don't want food poisoning do not buy meat from these people it spoiled in less than a month while frozen from date of purchase.

Today I stoped at this store. It was my first time. I went ahead and ordered 3 tacos. Sadly, I noticed that the lady that was taking the money at the register, was not wearing gloves, which was not a big deal since it was just money. But I got desappointed when I saw her handing the tortillas without gloves. This made feel very unconfortable. Even in normal circunstances it is necesary the use of protection when it comes to handling food. It was disgusting for me, given the situation with the covid19. I decided not to eat there, of course. I hope this message goes to the right people. I think that if they are careless on action that customers can see, how, I wonder how they do on the things we can see.

I stopped at this location to buy two heads of lettuce and tomatoes. 98% of the tomatoes both big and small were wilted, looked moldy, were soft and/or bruised. I had to get a mixture of both big and small decent looking tomatoes to get the amount I needed. I also bought 2 heads of lettuce. When I got home to chop them they were old, brown and I had to throw both of them out. I will NEVER go here for produce again! I thought it would save me a trip on the way home instead of H-E-B or Walmart but since I have to stop and buy more lettuce anyway.. not so. Hopefully I can figure out how to post pics w/ this review. If not, trust me, the produce was terrible.

I worked in the hospitality industry for 15 years at places like Adams Mark hotel, Sous chef with Hard Rock Cafe and Planet Hollywood and Kitchen lead at Dave and busters. The food at Culebra is ALAWAYS freshly prepared and is hot. These to points of measure should be a staple when eating out. The freshness of the food and is the hot food hot and the cold food cold. The prices for this place are fantastic compared to every where else where you'll not only pay more but also take a big chance on being dissapointed. Try it, ...... You will like it.

I see several negative reviews about this place and think its because of the system that they use. It isn’t a sit down and order place but a order at the counter and pick a table kind of place. I find the food here very good and fresh for the most part. The huevos rancheros are actually really good and I find them better and above average because of their salsa ranchera . The Carne guisada is also really good. The only thing is that they don’t make corn tortillas by hand but that isn’t really a problem for me

  • Wyman Alejandro Pylant

All culebra meat markets, close before their posted closing time, I had to drive to three stores Including this one on bandera that's supposed to close at 10 and they locked the door at 9:10 or before, I actually knocked on the door and the cashier was still cashing out people but yelled "it's closed!"... and the one on Babcock supposed to close at 9 and by 8:50 there was nobody and every light off, obviously close before time... too bad, never buying again!

  • Stasia L

I usually come to this market and the food has so far been good but they really need to train their cashiers on how to treat customers . Especially one of the girls who has glasses and short hair . She never greets with a smile and today the other cashier told me to go with her and the girl with short hairs response was “oh” and made a face and rudely did my transaction. I’m pretty sure she needs a recap on how customer service works.

  • Jean Stoltzfus

So much variety of fresh meat for amazing prices! I purchase raw meats for my dog who is on a vet approved raw diet, and I feel good being able to support a local supermarket while still saving money. The butchers and staff are very friendly and helpful - I feel very comfortable asking questions and the counter itself is very clean. They package your meats in plastic, then wrapped in butcher paper so it feels like premium service.

  • Brother Rob

The Tamales on a Good day are incredibly soft and moist and delicious. the barbacoa i didnt like at all. its pricey as well. when you look around youll find almost nothing is cheap in price and the only thing that is cheap is the quality of the food depending on what you buy. as great as the tamales are i would skip a week or two just to wait it out for better quality food to come by here.

  • Georgina Miranda Gomez

THEY SELL CHEESE MADE TO LOSE!! VERY BAD AND THE SELLER KNEW IT WAS ALREADY BAD. IT'S A PITY THAT HE WAS KIND, THE BAD IS THAT THEY DON'T CARE WHAT THEY SELL, THEY JUST SELL BUT THEY DON'T CHECK THEIR MERCHANDISE AND THE VERY RUDE BOX JUST SAID THAT I DID NOT PUT IT IN THE REFRIGERATOR AT BEST!!! THE TRUTH WOULD NOT HAVE GONE TO CLAIM IF IT HAD BEEN MY FAULT!!!

  • Gabriel H.

The ladies at work there are very rude and have poor customer service skills I feel sorry for Culebra meat market. For example this morning I went looking for some tortillas and other stuff. The girls were very unprofessional we're not any help at all. I recommend they get replaced before reviews keep falling. Do not come here.

  • Catholic Prayers Mobile

I have purchased meats at this place before , however on the Wednesday before Easter I purchased 20 lbs ., of leg quarters and they were spoiled . This really upset me because , I also purchased a huge brisket , from this place . The brisket was fine however it was embarrassing, that the chicken leg quarters were spoiled .

  • Mario Martinez

I would give their Mexican Barbacoa a 5, rating ftom 1 to 10. It does not have the texture, the aroma, or the taste of real "Pit Bar ba coa" made from beef head. I've traveled around and found a few places, only in South Texas, to have the real thing. There is an art to cooking pit barbaque. Sorry, just telling it like it is.

  • Jose

I got some chicken wings tonight but once cooked they all smelled like fish. The wings were disgusting and I had to throw them all away. I kept opening them and they all smelled terrible. First time and last time I will ever get any kind of meat at a Culebra Meat Market. The cashier wasn't pleasant either.

  • Kayla

Great carniceria with awesome butchers! Though, their employees at the registers definitely need an attitude adjustment! I've noticed, and I only assume this because they are females, that they are only ever polite to males when I pay for my items. There's usually never good customer service up in front.

  • Manuel Segovia

Not good , drove with a to go order to Bandera Texas , when I got there I had only 3 fajita tacos instead of four. And 4 bean and cheese tacos instead of.4 four fajita tacos and two bacon and egg, and two potatoes and beans. First time I have been so disappointed. Never going back.

  • Carlos Ybarra

It's great having a near by Culebra market but this location seems to close when they want and it's always at or before 10pm. For a new location you would think they would make sure to do things right as advertised. Well let's hope it stays clean and has fresh products.

  • Humberto salazar

VERY Disappointed, after I went and gathered the things I needed I went to go pay the cashier was extremely very and I mean very rude!!! I will never shop there again!!! And if ask me about this store I will tell them not to go there!!! …

  • Andrzej Wanderer

I believe that this place is only for Spanish speaking customers. I really want to buy some chicken fajitas , but after waiting 5min none of the employees working behind the counter was interested in taking my order . I left . I would never shop in this place again.

  • Delia P Alviar

I keep going back because it's really near me, but it's the 3rd time they give me smelly meat.i think they mix their old ground beef with their fresh one. Today I opened up the bacon i bought there and the smell made me want to throw up.

  • Cielo Escalante

This place is alright, prices are higher here idk why, $6 for sparking water that I get at Walmart for $3. I’ve seen expired canned food, and the people two girls that work there seem like they don’t want to be there.

  • Roland Martinez

Try this Mexican meat market offering more than meat at the butcher shop at the back. Great place to get your pan dulce, tortillas, tamales and just about anything you would need from “south of the border “.

  • STEVIE “BLACKWIDOW” COCHRAN

Went today brought 2 pounds of all meat barbacoa And chicharrones. And some taco rolls sweet bread. With a cold big red. yumO! Now I'm ready to watch the Cowboys!! Bring on the cold BUDWEISER!!

Meet, ok. Produce, ok. Pastries, excellent. Tamales (if they don't run out), yummy. Cheese and most canned goods... from California?!! Beer selection, no craft beers. Snacks, excellent. Random review.
