“This is the best meat store. I have been buying since 1995. I have lived in NC, IL, OH, NJ and still this is the best place. I drive from OH now 550 miles once 4m to buy goat legs and take to OH. Buy the whole leg and you will love the meat. I will keep buying as long as I can. Best Goat in US. Period.”
“A good place for HMC certified Halal meat. Owner handling with customer is always pleasant. Good clean shop with desi groceries specially for people from Sri Lankan
community.”
“We moved close by and needed a butcher. My cousin recommended Nicks and WOW! We’ve been here a few times already, decent deals, great meat, and the friendliest people ever. They make you feel like family. My daughter is 5 and loved coming here, now says she wants to be a butcher when she grows up lol”
“I highly recommend Union Pork Store! Their products are fantastic, fresh, incredibly delicious, and truly high quality. Everything is prepared with great care and attention to detail. The service is absolutely wonderful, friendly, welcoming, and always helpful. This is one of those places you discover once and then want to come back to again and again. If you haven’t been there yet, you absolutely have to stop by and try their products. It is definitely worth a visit! Highly recommended!”
“I'm not easily impressed and this establishment IMPRESSED me! From the food to the extensive meat selection to the friendly customer service, everything is 5 stars!”
“I recently ordered food from Perrotti's in Cranford for our company event. Their service was perfect (10 out of 10), and the food was exceptionally fresh and tasty. You can truly taste the homemade quality and the love put into it! I highly recommend them to everyone. Thank you to the team at Perrotti’s! Regards: Shahla Savino.”
“Christian was awesome. Extremely helpful, and just a nice guy who made me feel welcome my first time in the store. Picked up a couple of steaks, which were amongst the best cuts I’ve ever had. Great selection, and certainly a place I’ll be back to. The only butcher in town that I’ll use from now on!”
“I've been doing my research to stop buying meats from grocery stores and truly happy with finding these guys. The quality of the meats are phenomenal and the customer service is also top notch. Definitely will be my go to for meats for my meal prep!”

“Super nice lunch treat after a swim at the pool club. Great service and it was nice hearing a little about the family's story. This was my second visit. The first was at the Westfield shop, so it was cool to finally stop by new, close to original location
The steak was excellent. I had a dry-aged Prime T-bone this time and it was a fantastic cut. My first purchase from them was a NY strip about four years ago, and if I remember correctly it was around $37/lb. This one was $59/lb. I know a T-bone is worth more than a strip, and I understand this is 30-day dry-aged Prime beef with weight loss from aging and trimming. Still, that's close to a 60% increase, which feels a little ahead of where beef prices have gone overall. I thought it may top out at $50/lb, it was a tbone, not porterhouse
That said, the quality speaks for itself. Friendly service, excellent steak, and I'll definitely be back. The price might keep me from making it a regular stop, but I'd still recommend them if you're looking for a great piece of beef.”

“I love to get fresh meat from this placeEvery body is friendly and very Nice when it comes to cutting your meats, they will ask you how do you want it cut thin or thick.”
“This place performs on a high level. If John's was on the moon I think people would go to buy food.
The steaks are really special.
Last weekend i went in and got salmon. Fresh salmon in a meat store had me smiling ear to ear. & it was amazing.
I feel good buying food and bringing it to my family and knowing my wife and children are eating REAL & SAFE food.
The thinly sliced chicken is so good and really thin like a sheet of paper.
i love this place and wish i found it sooner. I smile big in Johns and I emit real joy.”
“Go as soon as they're open if its the beginning of the month. Quick, efficient and friendly service. Fresh meats at a great price. Been going here for over 30 years”

“Best place to get fresh chicken, pigeon, rabbit,Love this place.The owner is very friendly,If you want hard chicken you better come early.In this is an International area, you know how we do???”
“This is a great place, very clean and efficient in their work. They have most everything you may need. I think a lot of the negative comments is probably people not used to dealing with efficient people. They like their emotions pandered to.”
“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.”
“The best meat market around the centrel Jersey area! Excellent Food, meat catering and over all outstanding customer service. I highly recommend everyone to visit Quisqueya Meat Market for all your Meat and Grocery needs. They are the best... ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
“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.”
“Gaiser's makes the best pate I've had in the USA. Hands down. I lived in Germany or many years, this is the closest thing to German pate. It's hard to find in OH, but I am thankful they make it.
The reviews are ridiculous. People are giving poor reviews to a manufacturer for not selling to the public.
Their product is amazing. 5 stars for that. Review on quality. That's what matters. Not on whether they answer the phone.”
“II am Shahzad Qureshi, buying fresh halal meat and chicken from Shalimar; they are doing great work, always fresh meat and good management. Prices are very reasonable.”
“I recently bought chicken from this meat shop and had a great experience. The chicken was fresh, clean, and well-cut. The staff was polite and helped me choose the best pieces according to my requirement. The shop was hygienic and the service was quick, even during busy hours. The quality of the meat was excellent, and the taste after cooking was really good. Prices were also reasonable compared to the quality provided. I would definitely recommend this shop to anyone looking for fresh and good-quality chicken.”
