“Can’t rave enough about this place. Staff was so friendly. If you want meat cut a certain way they do it for you. There cookies and stuffed potato’s are to die for. Their salmon and king crab legs are the best I have ever had.”
“This is my first time at this location I usually go to fletcher but I was very pleased it was clean and brightly lit. The customer service was excellent from the butcher to the cashier and it was easy to find what I needed.”
“An extraordinary market place where one might find all the tastes of Arabic cuisine, from breads, biscuits, teas & coffee, to fresh butcher and produce.The staff are polite above and beyond, and are helpful for customers unfamiliar. I do provide "5" Stars due to this expriance of visiting and enjoying what felt like a holiday to a far away land.Ramadan Kareem.”
“I definitely recommend shopping at the Wild Fork. Best selection of meats I have seen in the Tampa Bay area. The prices are great too! I can't wait to go back.”
“Being a tourist, not aware so many would be closed. I was so happy to be here at Christmas day at 4pm. They closed at 5 pm so I had time to investigate the store. They have do many strange fresh vetables. I saw Aloe vera and cactus. And you could order fresh meat. The music played Salsa and the atmosphere was so cheerful. I danced a little in the store. The staff did the same.”
“The prices were better than a lot of other meat markets. The store was clean with no funky odors. The quality of the meat looks fresh and presented well! This will be my go-to place from now on for meats and odds and ends!”

“I have shopped here for years, and I always stop here when I'm back in town. I am a gringo, I strongly disagree w/Gordon Smith, who said if you're not Latino you're gonna be treated "like scum." You should have the decency to know just some Spanish to order your food, if you want to try their excellent deli. Hey, the girls at the checkout are usually singing, happy. I always leave happy. Just don't go in acting like you're something special. I'll be there in 5 days, my mouth is watering and I can't wait for my Cafe con leche!!”
“Great place. The prices are great. The hot food section and food is one of the best I have had in Tampa. I only wish they would close a little later. Getting of work at 5:00, when I get there I feel I have to rush into buying what I need. So when I go there I try to have my list of needed items ready. I would recommend. The owner ate from Dominican Republic, so I love it because I find that they something have fruits from the Island that I love.”
“Last couple times I bought fish at either Lotte Markets it turned out hard and rubbery. Do they soak it in a chemical bath to increase the shelf life or something? Anyways the produce selection was awesome. Great prices.
Fun to walk around to check out the cool foreign products. We bought a Middle Eastern cookie, I think it was used as a desert for completing Ramadan or something, but wow...tasted like soap. Totally blew $7.
Lots of products for Muslims and Hindus.”
“Ive been eating here lately for lunch & its just so amazing each day, getting fresh authentic Spanish food ? definitely check them out if you’re in the area looking for a nice portioned lunch for your moneys worth!!! Super friendly & helpful staff also!!”
“I have been here going on my 5th time now and I have yet to have an issue. The food in the food line in the back is delicious. I have tried there fried fish, chicken, shrimp and salmon. I have yet to be disappointed. AND they load up the plates.
The women who work the food line in the back are sweethearts. I have seen them catch a tude with a customer, but the customer was beyond rude to them first.”

“This business is located amongst warehouses, and shopping here is not your normal meat market experience, but rest assured, you be getting quality product. They basically are a high end wholesale meat distributor that also sells to the public, so you don't go inside and shop around. You go on their website and place your order, and pick it up the following day, between 6am and 3pm. I usually purchase Duroc pork butt and Duroc pork belly, a breed around for a couple hundred years with high quality reddish meat, not pale. They have beef, poultry, seafood, cheese, and various other products as well. Check out what they have on their website.”

“Before spanish colmados started popping up like mushrooms in a wet pasture, many years ago this place was my go to for latino products. Two decades later, there is just one thing I come for, whole goat leg.Nothing much has changed here. A small very crowded (with product) market with small aisles that houses all the basic essentials for latin american ciusine. A butcher shop provides fresh chicken, beef and pork. Most all other products like rabbit, seafood, goat and lamb are sold frozen. An aisle with fresh vegetables and fruit and the entire back and one side offer refrigerated drinks and various other sundries.Located on W. Waters Ave. and Manhattan the shop is a cornerstone to a 2 level plaza (strip center). Here as long as I can remember it seems like it's caught in time and looks exactly the same.”
“This place gets 5 stars. I seen a comment about someone buying chicken wings. She gave them 1 star cause she cldnt cook. If your wings tasted nasty. Simply learn how to cook. I get wings from them all the time. Nothing wrong with them. Their meats be fresh”
“great place to experience great customer service great place for me great place to buy quick Essentials and awesome experience in customer service that you won't receive in a warehouse where you going to walk 200 ft just to save 10 cents”
“Although the parking lot was full. I was able to find one at the door. I was fortunate to grab a bag of cabbage, greens and okra, pay for myvitems with no waiting in long lines and be out within 7 minutes or less.”
“I visited home over the holidays and was told by a friend that I should visit, which I obviously did. When you walk in, the first thing you notice is the long row of olive oils and vinegars.”
“Clean atmosphere and surroundings, despite the neighborhood, being low income, filled with drugs and homelessness. Prices are higher than those of larger chain stores. However, they offer ethical items that are not widely available. The staff is friendly and happy to serve regardless of the language barrier. Freshly cooked meat and vegetables food items are attractively displayed and enjoyed by busy patrons. Respectfully and your good wishes”
“I recently bought some uncle johns pride sausage, don't know what happend to the recipe, but now taste no different than other brands , consisity and tast of a hot dog now ?!!!!”
