Great meat market. The service is incredible. Victoria is so helpful beautiful and nice. I was there today(6-29-25) and she really helped me. I was looking for the best prices and quality in Corona, and I found Budget King Meats El Rey. Thank you
II’m a big fan of carne asada and noticed that this place had good reviews, so I wanted to see if it lived up to the hype. After a 30-minute drive, I was not let down. I ordered two different carne asada dishes: one marinated in lemon and the other in orange. Both were excellent, though I preferred the lemon marinade while my wife liked the orange one more. Their customer service was exceptionally welcoming; they truly treated you like family, an older gentleman whose face is on their logo, letting me know how he started the business. I also spoke to a young lady; I believe it was the daughter. Her service was awesome, great energy, and best of all backed by the quality of the food. I highly recommend this place and will definitely return.
Easily one of the best carne asada that I ever had. The family is super nice and the meat and salsa was perfect for celebrating my daughters 5 year anniversary of being cancer free 🩷 …
Easily the best carne asada around and its not even close. The homemade guacamole made every weekend is the best. I would highly highly highly recommend coming to try this spot!! And don't pass up on the chicken thighs either. Thinly cut and marinated perfectly 👌 …
The marinade carne asada is the best ever 💙 and the service there is the best ever too (Veronica) …
Best Carne asada in all of Riverside county if not California!!!
We have been coming to Budget King Meats in Corona for well over 25 years!!! Their quality and flavor is never ever compromised. We hand down think it’s the best carne asada meat in the entire town!!! Gus and his family are so kind and always so friendly!! It’s family owned and have been here forever, I am so grateful to have them nearby in Corona for all my meat!!
It was a great pleasure getting a chance to walk into an amazing family owned and operated carnicería! Visiting for the first time, it was definitely a place that I will continue to come back to. Great choices of meat and awesome staff! Felt like they knew me as a regular customer. Thank You Budget King Meats!!!!
I walked in yesterday, the store was not very busy. I understand this is a mom and pop shop and needs to be able to turn a profit. The price for their asada ranchera wasn't to my liking. Based on other reviews it seems their marinade may be worth the price. I ended up going to Stater brothers and marinading the asada myself.
This family owned and run business caught my attention one day as I was looking for pork skin, cueritos. Met the daughter Veronica, who told me a little history of her family's business. I returned today to try the marinated Carne Asada, salsa, guacamole, and chorizo. Very good service from la Doña, thank you very much. I'll let you know how it tastes after I BBQ.
Came in and bought the best carne asada last saturday from a charming young man by the name of Ricky. When I say this is THE BEST MEAT in the I.E….. I MEAN IT. My children absolutely loved his meat. Will make this my primary shopping spot for carne 🥩 …
Awesome family owned business! I grew up in the area and I’m so glad to see this place is still offering delicious great quality meats. The service is top notch. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a good meat shop.
My family has been driving to this location for almost 20 years, great price on Half Cow , packaged, Labeled, ready for our freezer, give it a try .. there is a reason they have been in business for almost 60 years
I have heard so much about this place that I decided to investigate myself, the meat is the best but their customers service is amazing! She was so friendly that she gave me some ribs to try for free!!! I will definitely be coming back for more quality meat. Thank you so much.
Moved out of state but every time we visit CA, we stop and stock up on meat. Hands down the best Carniceria! Hoping I can get some shipped to us.
I like to prepare my own carne asada, I'm pretty good at it. But this place does it better and the meat is always good quality and cut just the right thickness. …
They have the best (orange) carne asada! We still come all the way from AZ to get it when we’re in town. And the grandmother makes the best guacamole too!
My buddy and his family run the shop. Best carne preparada you can ever get I swear. Salsa made from scratch and the marinate for the meats. If you live far, trust me it's worth the drive to get the carne always
1st time customer and this place is hands down the best carneceria in town! Great meat, great service from the friendly staff. Definitely will be coming back!!!
Great meat!!! Great quality!!! Overall great customer service!! I will always buy my meat there!
