Wanted a couple beef shanks and trying to avoid Cardenas cuz that place can be a zoo esp on weekends. Found this place on yelp and called ahead. Got two meaty frozen shanks. Cooked a soup. Will return and try other items.

Super friendly owners. Always well stocked up. They have a pretty cool butcher shop in the back with all the freshest meats.

I've been going to Island Market for over 50 years. No better meat market. Damn Sam when you gonna retire ???. I come from Concord moving to Antioch CA. Still make the trip. Paratransit picks me up and drop me off. You can't beat that front door service being a senior.

My very favorite meat market! They have the best and freshest meat. There prices are great for the meat packages. You can substitute items and Sam is the best. Always friendly and gives me dry salami for the kids.

It certainly has changed happy they got the EBT Card/Debit machine working .Only purchase the simple things like ciggerstes or a soda won't buy food there way to expensive some items need dusting. LilThe only gripe I have is the outside in front and on the sideWe all live In a Middle Class neighborhood we need to try and keep it clean including these stores all these ppl are home owners 3rd and 4th generations . Don't hurt to pressure wash the side walk once a week too ! Jus sayn

They change prices everyday like you don’t come in every day SMFH. And because of that I’ll take that scenic walk to oaktown up the block. Or to islers on foothill… go to a smoke shop or another store for your smoking needs.

Date: 1/3/2021 Time: 2:30 PM 50° CloudyAfter a visit to Lucky Stores in search for some neckbones, which they did not have, I did a yelp search for meat markets that were in the area. The search resulted in several businesses. I chose Island Market Meat Department on High Street. I called them and yes, they had neck bones. Husband and I arrived there. Street parking in front of the market can be problematic. I haven't been in this neck of the wood for several years. The meat department is to the left of the entrance. The neckbones are fresh and $8.00 for four pounds. That's a deal. The butcher even cut them at no additional cost. First time here and I am thoroughly satisfied with the quality of the steaks, chops and the neckbones.I now know where I can get my fresh neckbones - Island Market Meat Department. They also have different meat packages posted on the wall, which brings me back to the memories of a meat department in this market that was on 20th & Telegraph Avenue in the late 70's, early 80's. Definitely there will be returned visits to this business.

Awesome locally owned grocery store. Great produce, solid butcher and plenty of products to fill in the gaps. Excellent beer selection for a local market too.

Went in here the other day to find that there was a line of people not wearings masks and commenting on me for doing so. This business is more concerned with making money than addressing public health concerns. Don't come here.

They were bomb! Cut my oxtail exactly the way I wanted it, no complaints! They were welcoming, and the meat was fresh. My Go-to for anything meat related!

We have been buying booze at Island Market for years but wanted to stock up at meat at a market with few people due to covid crap. 4 people in line a head of me, all kept their space. Sam cut t-bones for me to speck. I bought pork butt, beef chuck for pot roast and stew, chickens, and any cut I asked for Sam pulled it out of the walk in regardless of it being in the show case! Amazing! I'm going to be buying all my neat there!
