THE spot for high end steaks and meats.
When I'm looking for a special cut of meat to celebrate a special occasion, Alameda Market is my go-to.
This is less of a market and more of a boutique for meat lovers. Behind the glass cases you'll find a delicious array of steaks, skewers, kabob meat, fish, and more. Everything always looks fresh and appealing which always has me picking up more items than I intended going in.
The remainder of the store is every bit as clean and appealing as the meat cases. Every shelf is stocked with specialty canned and dried goods to round out your meal and fill the belly. It's the best elements of a classic delicatessen and NYC bodega that reflects the pride of the owners.

I was picking out steaks for my anniversary and Joseph helped me out with what to pick and even gave me great tips on how to cook the meat. I will be coming back as his service and knowledge of his product is rare to find...

Truly give the place a shot and you will definitely not want to go...
