I placed my order online and upon arriving, I observed all items online are priced $1 higher than they are in store. Also, I ordered the beef sambousa and wasnt advised until my arrival al that they were out of beef. Additionally, when checking the order, I had ranch dressing instead of the balsamic I ordered. When I inquired, I was told they where out if balsamic vinegarette and was offered raspberry vinegarette instead. My issue the lack of communication. Also, there was mystery grit on the outside of my salad container. I didnt bother addressing it due to my thorough disappointment. Small details make the big picture. I dont think I will be ordering from this establishment in the future.
I have been a dedicated customer due to the quality of the meats and poultry here. The blood is thoroughly drained in their ground beef products and they even offer lean and extra lean options. Additionally, fresh lamb and steak cuts are always present along with options for organs like tongue and braaains!All the meats and poultry is 100% Zabiha & Halal and comes from animals that are pasture raised and grass-fed. Important things!For students and people with little time to cook or learn to cook, they have many fantastic ready-to-bake marinaded options -- just fire up a stove or oven and the food is ready.Lastly, the highlight of the place, IMO, is the built-in restaurant that serves AMAZING food. I personally love the Iraqi kabobs. The Turkish kabobs are are must have, and I usually get a pound of either or both.
If you go for mix cut goat in this shop you will end up with disappointment because in a lb of meat 1/2 lb of bone 1/4 lb of hard meat that you can’t chew or eat, 1/4 lb may be good. better buy full leg or shoulder it’s good . rest are junk waste of time and money….
Im addicted to going here! cant stop, wont stop unless I move out of San Antonio Or Allah takes me to the afterlife! Alhamdolillah for halal meat! Beef Bacon & Premium steaks like ribeye, as well as T-bone. You either take it home yourself or they grill it for you. Very pleased & thankful the permissible is easily accessible.
Meat lovers pizza 10/10. Made to order. So much flavor!Samosas are a steal for that price. The merguez sandwich is very good too.Staff is very friendly and attentive. Can place pick up orders online or on the phone
Watch out when you buy meat in this place the meat smelled I will absolutely not be going back.
Great food, great people and great atmosphere. The people that work here are super friendly and make you feel like family. Love coming here for their halal meats. The place is very clean and they sell good products with very affordable prices. Thanks to Mohammed for always welcoming us, recommend this place 10/10.
I always come here. Its a very good place to get goat meat, beef and chicken. Guys are respectful and welcoming. Also its a good eating spot to have some delicious food. I would recommend to come here and try it.
If you are looking for Authentic Moroccan Sandwiches, this is your place. These sandwiches are so delicious. I drive all the way from Austin to San Antonio just to grab it on the weekends. I tried the sausage links, Lamb Kabab, Beef Kabab and its all delicious. They also have great customer service and super friendly! I only go there once a month, and I cant wait to go back again! Oh! I also buy some other goodies from the store. Great stuff! Please Open in Austin! You will see me once a week instead of a month 😁
Delicious Halal Pizza and Wings, I was definitely looking for alternative pizza shop in San Antonio apart from Naara cafe for Pizza and guess Al Madina turns out to be a better option. We have become a big fan of there pizza and buffalo wings. The quantity of meat been used in there pizza amazing. I would really appreciate if they update there price list on website rather than feeling cheated when about to pay at the register.
Literally just finished their chicken kebab plate with rice and taziki sauce. I had to get on google and immediately give them a 5 star. They serve food that they cook to order. Their plate was really good. This is authentic middle eastern food, just like my moms cooking. Dont expect your plate to be cooked quickly if youre in a hurry. The cashier was sincere and provided great customer service, as did the rest of the staff. I think they also have gyros. Ill try that next time Im here.Thank you for the great food.
4 stars over all out of 5 stars.Location 3.7 stars is tight had to turn around due to traffic. Very impressed with how clean this location was. Prices on grocery better then place down the street. All cuts of meat looked great.Food 4.5 stars Best thing here you can see you food being cooked. They have 2 tables out side to eat (too hot) but no place for it to sit inside. Food is cooked fresh so better to call it in. We ordered chicken shawarma, chicken tikka, fries, hummus & rice. Different bread on both sandwiches not a flat pita. Good bread but it soaked up all juices from meat, we can ask for more sauce next time. Hummus was grainy good but could use more flavor(personal preference).Customer service 4.5 stars person helped us named Mohammed was nice very helpfull. Person on grill great also same goes for butcher. My only complaint here is they forgot my rice but also gave me free fries.
This evening I decided to try Al Madina and ordered the mixed grill with fries. All I can say is WOOOOW! The meat was well marinated, juicy, and full of flavor. A major plus was that the kitchen and grilling area were very clean. All the employees were kind and made me feel welcome. The only problem I had was that I did not order more food because it tasted divine and I finished eating it too quickly. Ive eaten at other Mediterranean and halal restaurants in the area and I must say that Al Madina is a HIDDEN GEM that can give mixed grills from other restaurants a run for their money. Yall MUST try it! I highly recommend Al Madina and I will definitely be returning!
Of all the Meat Market stores I Love. This store is at the top of the Love List with ease. The staff is always ready and willing to make suggestions and recommendations. The friendliness is outstanding and excels with glorious admiration. Aside from the Protein sold here. There are other various assorted products such as dry to can foods, dairies, fruit juices, carbonated beverages, some health and beauty applications, frozen veggies to local farm dry produce, toilet paper, and some kitchen housewares products etc.. I highly recommend this place with great pleasure.
Yesterday I decided to try this place because I heard they have some delicious sandwiches and great Moroccan style kebab so I wanted to try some. I did not know what to order and the staff members made me feel very welcomed, gave me suggestions, and treated me with a lot of care. The food was so delicious and beyond what I expected. I will definetly come back again and again.
Great place to get your groceries speciallyWhen it comes to meat 🍖everyone is very friendly and respectful Mohammed youre the best even your brother I just forgot his name
I go every weekend for chicken meat and goat meat. Staffs are friendly and their produces are good. Very clean and well put store.We tried their chicken swarma pizza along with Chicken/Lamb tikka. It is very good. They bring the best cuisine in sizable small shop.Thank you for making my weekend trip to your store worthy.
Great service, staff is really friendly. Honestly one of the best places to buy fresh meat! They have a great variety of meats. The products are really fresh and they taste amazing!!
Today I had a great experience buying meat today.I met Mohamaad, Mohamaad and me connected as if we know each other years.He was Very friendly and courteous and advised his staff what kind of meat I needMy favorite place to buy meatThank you Mohamaad..
I bought lamb shoulder ribs (fresh) to make a dish and they were delicious! The customer service was excellent! Thanks again!
Bad customer service, rude and dishonest, and bad quality.
Best quality of halal foods and the customer service is wonderful and amazing. I was very happy with the products I saw and I love the menu items on the Cafe restaurant side. My husband and I ordered the delicious merguez and chicken kabob with fries and rice. So fresh and delicious 😋😜. I love it❤️
There are several reasons why I give the Al Madina market a top rating, listed in no particular order:1. The personnel are friendly, courteous and helpful. Nobody leaves the market without getting personal attention and assistance with whatever they need.2. Their meats are simply top notch. If you have never tried “halal” meats, you are in for a treat. I believe that you will notice a significantly better taste than what you get at chain supermarkets.3. Their in-house grill makes excellent fare. The menu offers a wide variety of dishes, both Middle Eastern and American. We are frequent takeout customers.4. Last but not least is the fact that they score %100 on their health inspections consistently.Finally, after experiencing what the Al Medina market has to offer, my wife and I willingly go out of our way to shop there.
Small San Antonio hidden Gem First time visiting store was exceptionally clean and well stocked. Staff and owners were very friendly. Would definitely recommend.
Wow, I have had so many sandwiches in San Antonio, these guys are a hidden gem. Their food is fresh and generally good for taking away and have a small sitting area... Yum... Best sandwich shop in San Antonio. 😀👍👍
Great place to shop and staff are great people
I buy fresh lamb and goat meat here. The people are very friendly and the market is extremely clean. The meat has always been great
Freshest halal meat in San Antonio. Very clean and reasonable pricing. They rarely ever carry anything frozen which is what I look for in my meat markets
Kind people and delicious food
Very very delicious food. The pizza is amazing. Tried a lot of different items and they were all superb. All the food is hot and fresh. You can see it being made right in front of you. Nice variety of food as well! The service is very nice as well. Everyone is very polite and kind. Everything is very clean and tidy. Portions are nicely sized as well. Highly recommend anyone check this place out. I will be coming back as often as I can.
This place is amazing 🤩, the stuff are very friendly and very professional highly recommend it
Wow! This is my new grocery store!Clean, clean, clean! It is well stocked with a wide variety of items. The staff is courteous and kind. And the meat department....oh my! American style, Texas sized, steaks, so fresh you would think they had been butchered ten minutes prior. But at affordable prices. Beef, lamb, goat and chicken, with a large selection of organ meat, are offered up in a super clean, traditional butcher shop style.The meat tastes chemical/hormone free. Matter of fact, I started purchasing Halal meat, not for religious reasons, but because when I moved to Texas, I couldnt eat any locally purchased meat, due to the horrible chemical taste.We had been purchasing all of our meat, and other specialty items, from another Halal Markets, as we couldnt fulfill our needs at just one market. However, going forward, it looks like my family and I can fulfill all of our needs at Al Madina Meat Market. But regardless of whether or not you have international market needs, If you like excellent meat, at a great price, this store should be on your shopping list.
This is the best place to get meat.I used to stop in often until I moved to the other side of town. Now I drop in sporadically and Im really glad to have seen this business grow and get the support they do.The Owner is the nicest guy, and the staff are all down to help. They have a great selection of halal meats, and everything Ive had there has been great and really high quality.Cant wait till they open up the cafe/restaurant inside.
Great market, they have everything the arabic family is needed
Real organic halal meat is hard to find in San Antonio, but Al Madina has it. The flavor and cuts are superior to any other market Ive been to. After finding them, I will not be buying my meat from anywhere else. (Try their authentic Moroccan sandwiches!)
Employees dont wear their masks properly, and it is hard to communicate.
This store was one of my favorite one. However today I ordered a pizza an it was totally burned.
Please watch for receipts, there is $2+ charge for using any debit or credit card.
One of the best kept secrets in town. A great place to get quality clean meat. Also they make great burgers, wings, and pizza. The lamb burgers and there pizzas are outstanding and I reccomend trying. They are also very reasonable priced. If your muslim, it is also all halal. Definetly a must visit.
Ordered whole Goat Mandi for about 11 people very yummy 😋 and tasty 😋
Its amazing place, and very nice treatment. I loved it soo much, and their food very frush and good.
Some of the highest quality of meat in the city. Muhammad and his wife take great care of their customers.If you have not tried their sandwiches do so.
The best place for halal food. Clean facility and professional staff. Additional five stars for their new grill part. Delicious sandwiches and kabobs
I’m here visiting my daughter who just moved here from TN and we fell upon this great place! Their meats are top notch with no hormones or antibiotics and grass fed. Everything is Kosher. I highly recommend and will be back!
My favorite market since moving to SA. Great selections and wonderful meat and spices. Staff is always great.
All halal food is there. If you plan for picnic or BBQ YOU SHOULD get Tawooq and grown beef from there, it is so delicious and thier touch of marinade is sooo good
It was the best meat Market but for some reason turned to bad! they started selling the restaurant depot meat instead of fresh meat never again for me
I go to the place at least twice a week but lately I notice none of them is wearing the mask correctly. I try to order some meat even the bûcher he doesn’t have his mask correctly. I try to talk to the owner but he ignored me......😡😡😡🤜
Have shopped here for years and am always treated as a long lost friend and really like their products the lamb and beef burger is fabulous
I liked their halal raw meat section but the grill is not upto the mark, may be the worst I have ever seen in San Antonio area. We have bought sandwiches twice from this place and to my surprise both the times we were unhappy as the meat was raw and smelled nasty. Do not recommend their grill section!!!
Very friendly, clean, and great customer service. We will be buying all our meat from here and would highly recommended. If you don’t check out Al Madina you’re missing out!
Al Madina is a wonderful place to shop for fresh meat for any occasion. I personally loved to buy meat for family BBQs and gatherings. The Cafe/ Grill food selection and taste are also great. I have tried many other medditerean cuisines here and San Antonio, Texas an by far Al Madina Cafe is the best. The staff are very friendly and kind n always helping with customers needs n wants. I wish many great things to Al Madina as a business n the hardworking staff who make it happen... Thanks God Bless....
The best Halal meat market ever. Great quality and customer service. Highly recommended!!!!
Great meat market. Fresh meat and extremely high quality. Its nice to see a sole-proprietorship thrive in San Antonio and I appreciate supporting this local business because they are the ONLY place in San Antonio that I have found offering specialty cuts like an ENTIRE LEG OF LAMB. This is great! They also offer a lot of very unique craft grocery items that are extremely difficult to find elsewhere and everything at a reasonable and affordable price.
The cows meat is always expired. Smells very bad. I will never stop again.
I absolutely Love getting my meats from here. Everyone is friendly and they are always helpful. Great prices too. I love getting my rack of lamb, ground meats, and steaks here. I also get their garlic because they peel it for you 😊
I have been getting my meat here for several years now. Always best quality in city. Other grocery items are good too. Staff and management are always the best you can expect.
Great people, best quality meat products, the small restaurant has fresh grill food ready before your grocery shopping is over. Very friendly staff ... highly recommend and will be back soon!Thank you
We went in to get a couple of steaks for my daughters birthday dinner. The cut was perfect and the meat was excellent. The prices were good too. The staff was super friendly. When we were checking out he found out it was my 8 year olds birthday and let her pick any candy she wanted as a gift. That was so sweet. We will definitely get our steaks from here from now on.
THEY HAVE THE MOST TENDER STEAKS IN ALL OF SAN ANTONIO,TEXAS!
Mohammeds Al-Madina is a hidden gem of San Antonio! The butcher shop, olive bar and essentials of Arabic cuisine (Lebanese yogurt drink) were already outstanding, but then they added a grill with some of the best grilled kebabs and Shawarma available in San Antonio. Havent tried the pizza. The grills grilled house-made spicy merguez is truly one of the citys great sandwiches. And lately Ive been buying a steak and having it grilled there immediately for a quick takeout steak frites! Who else does that?Total deliciousness, very reasonable prices, salaam aleykum!
Just bought some sandwiches from here, and they were splendid! Everything they make for you is absolutely fresh, and their meat comes with much quality!
Clean, good quality meat
This meat market is Horrible place to buy meat. Along with over price and have to deal with bad customer service, I got leg of lamb the owner said he cant cut it. Have to buy the entire leg. I Asked about his burger he said, what you need everything is different he cant explain. I asked him what kid of meat, he says everything in it!!! Insha-Allah hope Halal way!!! Save your time & money stay away from this bad service meat store!!!👎👎
Friendly owner and staff, good food and good prices on the fresh meat!
Unfortunately the kabob meat was beyond burnt. The side of hummus was prepackaged and I guess it doesnt require refrigeration. First time Ive heard of that!
We love Al Medina! Everyone is always friendly, the meat is the freshest around and they even sell local items like farm fresh honey from Houston! ♡
Great selection of fresh meat. Good place to buy fresh meat. Very friendly and helpful staff. Fresh cut. Quick service.
The freshest cleanest meat in San Antonio. They are very friendly and helpful. This is now my place to go for meat in San Antonio.
Nice worker excellent Services
Staff is real friendly... I love this place, hope they some branches around
Three week continuously they served old chicken. after eat we when to hospital. if they could not served good fresh one, they should stop selling chicken. i wont go again and not recommend for any one. i cant believe how come health inspectors wont check those. if you care about your health please dont go to this place.
Best Halaal place ever, great new restaurant peeps should check it out :))))
Fresh meat and Great quality!! Buy more than 3yrs and recommend.
The best halal market All-around taxes the staff is very friendly The products are high-quality
Biggest thiefs, watch what you buy and how they weigh it Tbone advertising for 8.99 lb at the register 2lbs is $30 lol
Fresh meat, cut any which way you like.. Best prices, always
Great butchers! I have been looking for a butcher since I moved to SA. I finally found one. Friendly, clean and helpful.
Best halal meat shop in San Antonio. The owner is extremely nice, and knows his meat. If you are a beef guy then this is the place to go. They have many varieties of steak cuts like T-bone, rib eye, top and bottom sirloin. They also know how to do Bihari kabab cuts.
The meat is good quality. Customer service could use some improving.
Great place stared going here since I moved down from Houston, great meat and they have great cuts of meat to be specific. They know what they are doing!
Best Meat Market in San Antonio!!!Staff is really knowledgeable& great people. 5 Stars & must buy
