“Solid deli, small grocery market with a lot of prepared foods. Over the years you just kept less meat on your sub or breakfast sandwich and the price like everyone else has only gone up unfortunately.”
“Incredible. 'Pork rib roast. Ribs 3 -9. Chine bone off. Fat cap on.' Say that anywhere else than Nick's and you'll get a deer in the headlights. But from Nick's you'll get the best pork rib roast you've ever eaten. Full stop. Thanks, Nick's! Happy holidays, buddy. You've already made ours' special.”
“The SMELL!!! When you walk through the door this nutty Smokey aroma cuddles your olfactory sense and warms your soul as you walk through the two aisles jam packed with delicious foods. I was immediately greeted by Adolfo and he was able to help me find what I had been looking for at another shop, lamb sausage called Merguez that has hirassa seasoning. Bon, the woman behind the counter, also helped me find some more sausages to try. I was given a small piece of smoked sausage to try that was made in house. I will 100% sure to return. I also bought 2 jars of mustard because you need good quality German mustard with the sausages.
Next time I try the bacon and the duck sausage!”
“Get there early as possible, this store is very limited on space and typically has a line to get in and place orders. Very busy and parking lot is small. Staff is friendly and they only have 2 registers.”
“Wow, wow, wow. I had the most pleasant experience purchasing from this business. The lamb i purchased was fresh and price was great. However what struck me the most was the friendly attitude of the gentlemen who own this business. I was not treated just as a customer but a friend. They go out of their way to accommodate customer’s needs and demands. Today they earned a customer for life. Strongly recommend.”
“Pats is an outstanding butcher shop. The quality is always high and the prices are always great. They have a wide selection of everything you could possibly want. All the staff are warm and inviting especially Nicole. Always happy to support this great local small business.”
“Unity has the best prices in New Jersey and they have one of the cleanness meat markets in the area. They have wholesale and single pieces. Unity is a must try meat market..”
“Park on the street and walk into shipping office in the back. If the door is locked press the buzzer and somebody will come out and tell you what door to back into. Looks pretty small on all the maps but there is enough space to maneuver and back into doors. Appointment was at 6 a.m. out by 6:30 am. Fast unload”
“This is a awesome store. But just don't borrow money from the guys out front unless you fully intend to pay it and the vig fast.
Listen just keep your ears shut.
Don't make me come over there
You guys are still famous 15 years after the show ended....”
“Best Butcher Shop. Serving Halal very fresh meats. I make an effort to drive an hour to get here to order baby goat! There are few places which a near to where we live but the quality of Shalimar Meat is beyond all the others! Clean, fresh and cut in perfect portion sizes. They have all the other meats too like Beef and chicken. Chicken is very fresh and tender too.
You can order over the phone to save time, they will have your package ready before you arrive. They accept credit card and cash both.”
“This is a Must Eat spot. I've tried the Honey Ham a few years back, and it was Delish ??? I just happened to drive by and stopped to see what's new. Ham & Cheese sliders, heated ? Yum Yum and Yum. They also have the Turkey and cheese, but the Ham calls my name. They have the sliders with a lunch box. You will add this to your Go 2 Lunch. I'll add this spot to my must drive by spots ?? Family owned and very pleasant ??”
“Great system, you get there and register in. 5 to 10 min wait and you get a message to come in. Butcher shows you the meats with pictures and you choose whatever you want. Saved a lot of money but I have not used any yet so I dont know about the quality yet, it looks good but I don't know yet.”
“Really nice old school guys. Been coming here for40 yrs (well family).
Quality, alittle pricy but I’m guessing it may be worth it. Always make it right at the end of the day!!”
“My God. Every once in a while when I'm in the neighborhood I'll stop by and pick up something. I wanted some beans I didn't know what type of meat to put in it. I stopped here the day before and picked up a link just one but saw in the corner of my eye Hammocks didn't purchase it, I said when I'm in the neighborhood again I'll pick it up. That was the next day. Talking about meaty I put it in some beans and I'm cooking it right now.”
“Excellent variety of beef, pork, chicken and lamb. Exceptional price and staff attention. Large assortment of groceries and products from Central and South America.”
“Best halal meat in the area. I prefer this place as the staff is polite and cut the meat per preference. They also prepare chicken lollipop meat although it’s not listed.”

“I recently visited Annandale Meat Market and had a wonderful experience! The selection of meats was impressive, with a variety of fresh options to choose from. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable, assisting me in finding exactly what I needed. I also appreciated their attention to cleanliness and hygiene, which made me feel safe while shopping. The prices were reasonable for the quality provided. I would definitely recommend this market to anyone looking for high-quality meats and great service. Looking forward to my next visit!”
“Maple Kosher has catered a number of kiddishes and dinners at my Shul, B’nai Israel in Manalapan, NJ. The food is fabulous and packed with so much flavor. I especially look forward to their cholent that has an abundance of meat.”
“They have treat you with courtesy and professionalism. Every time I have been there they ask you how you want the chicken cut and clean it fast. I have been here a couple of times and will definitely be back again. If you have the number you can just call them and ask them if they have what you need or they will tell you when its coming in.”

“Great little neighborhood bodega. The prices are reasonable, decent selection of items and there is a sub shop in there. Prices are great and the portion is great. I was visiting the area and it's a great little market. The people in there are nice (might possibly be the owners) and I like it. Wanted to show support. If you live in the area, go check it out.”

“Great Kosher meat! The Flushing shop has been delivering to Millburn and Livingston for years. Now we finally have a store in Livingston! I love their lamb rib and ox tail! The lamb and beef skewers are also perfect.”
“Went there a week ago after I found it online.
It is a legit butcher.
How can I order a fresh suckling pig to pickup before Easter if I done speak Portuguese?”

“The supermarket its self is good very clean,nice staff but they need to check where the bread is some I went this Saturday and I found that some of the bread has mold in it ??”
“Now that I just finished inhaling this entire thing, it’s time to get this verbal vomit out on paper.
What started as a simple trip to the dry cleaners in Woodrow Plaza took a hard left after I picked up my clothes and stopped into Supreme Meats for this absolute behemoth.
I frequent Supreme Meats in the summertime for their barbecue package (phenomenal, by the way). Or if I’m making Sunday sauce and need fresh mozzarella, marinated mushrooms, or some proper Italian bread. Their products are always spot on.
But one day I decided to pivot to the deli counter and order a chicken cutlet hero… and man, was I impressed.
I’m convinced they’re using Bell & Evans chicken cutlets. I’m not sure how they fry them, but they are perfectly crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. Not those nonsense deli cutlets where you feel like you’re chewing on rubber.
I’ve ordered this sandwich in several different variations and somehow it’s always $12. I don’t know how they’re doing it, but it’s one hell of a value. This thing is huge. I’m not sure the pictures even do it justice. When they hand it to me, I want to tuck it under my arm, stiff-arm the person in front of me, and go barreling out the door like Joe Namath. I can’t get home fast enough to eat it.
It’s way too much for one person… but I’m a savage, and honestly, it’s worth the stomachache afterward.
The guys behind the counter are artists. The sandwich doesn’t fall apart. It’s built properly. You can tell they actually care about what they’re doing.
This time around I went with fried chicken cutlet, lettuce, tomato, and mayo. I should’ve told them to throw some oil and vinegar on there… but there’s always next time.”

“Small bodega with fast service and cheap prices. Fresh ingredients, and deli meat that is sliced when you order. I tried the Bacon Egg and Cheese, and it was delicious. Will update this review with the menu next time I go.”
“First time here !
There is 2 different ways to get to this location!
So you park down the block or street and bring paper work to building at end of street .
they will let you know whenever the door is available!
The streets were really tight around this location.
Once you get a door , they will come out and guide you all the way till you are in door !
Very easy & friendly workers ! 10/10
I recommend this place . ✅”
“I live up the street from this wonderful small corner store. The butcher's in the back are very friendly and helpful. The fish market has the freshest and such a great variety. Lastly, the girls behind the the counter are always friendly , ready to help you with anything. My only complaint is that they close at 1:30pm on Sundays.”
“This place is a must go to!
I went in there to browse because I just moved to the area and the people working in the business were very nice and very welcoming. They have a bunch of premade meals and fresh meat that all look delicious!
They also have your basic needs like milk and vegetables. I decided on raviolis and they were great!”
