The place was quite busy in early afternoon, and it took quite some time to receive some type of service. However, that was expected with the amount of people waiting. The staff was friendly, and quite knowledgeable as far as the types of meat. The quality of the meat was great, and the option to have meat cut on site was a great feature in the store. Overall, my experience was really good, and I would recommend anyone looking for a vast selection of meats to stop by and shop. Some meats were pricey, but given the origin and type of meat, I understood why. Just know your budget, and shop accordingly. Most of the pricey meats had cheaper alternatives.
I got the biggest steaks from them. I was able to buy one of each cut we like🥰 and 1 steak was more than enough for the two of us,with sides of course. The place had so many people there to help everyone. I was very happy n thankful to the butcher who helped me he did not make feel rushed or anything. My family will definitely be coming back.
Worse veal bone roast we’ve ever had. My poor mom spent a lot of money on this piece of meat for my dad who is dying to make some of his favorite last meals for him. 3/4 of this piece of meat was either bone or fat and I mean LOTS of fat. I will find another butcher and make this mean a proper meal for my dad. Feels like they saw an old lady and took advantage of her.
This place I fantastic..I live 42 miles away...and still go here for anything to do with meat...would give 10 stars if I could.
Top notch place on the Strip. Can get crowded. Homemade sausages outstanding. Maybe best beef jerky ever. Large selection of exotic meats. Must stop.
Great selection! Knowledgeable staff, All questions answered fully, and clearly. Super nice guys, shop is immaculate!
A very busy place but it’s loaded with any kind of meat product you could want as well as exotic meats I have not seen sold anywhere else.We walked away with a lot of fine meats that were fresh and tasted wonderful.Prices are actually pretty reasonable given the area and I saw they take ACCESS which is good for those who are using that program
Ive experienced nothing but Good service, great meats, delicious fresh sausage, steaks, hard to find items, all Consistently good products. Can get crowded get there early but if you happen to have to wait in line it goes quickly. Cant wait to go back!!
Great selection. Nothing here is higher in price than youd expect for fresh meats, in fact some things are much cheaper than Id expect. The sausages that we tried were all terrific. We grabbed the chorizo and the chicken maple raspberry sausage. Everyone was very friendly as well
I was impressed with the selection of meats and cleanliness. Staff needs more knowledge on Meats my personal opinion but..please dont go anywhere else theres everything here
Always exceptional products and great customer service. This is a family-owned business that is run so well! The meat is the absolute best I’ve ever bought & the prices are comparable to the “Big-Box” stores! You need to give them a try! You won’t be disappointed!
Great service, busy but not too long of a wait. Appreciated
Its always a positive experience. Extensive selection, well priced.
Absolutely amazing cuts of meat and the chicken nuggets are to die for!
My friend and I went there looking for a beef tenderloin to make beef wellington. To our surprise, they only sold huge tenderloin. We consulted the gentleman working (I didnt get his name!) and he went out of his way to discuss our options. I was hesitant to buy the entire tenderloin but after he offered to have the butcher trim the meat, cut the piece of tenderloin used for the wellington, and cut the rest into steaks, we were sold! Thank you so much for taking the time to explain this information to us and helping us choose the best possible solution!It doesnt stop there though, we brought the meat home and made the wellington. The meat was incredible. Ive always heard people say a steak that cuts like butter and Ive never believed it until today.Thank you, strip district meats, for the quality in service and product!
Excellent meat, great selection, convenient location, friendly and knowledgeable staff
Awesome place to grab your meats, an you save more money buying from them then any other meat market! My wifes been shopping here for years!!!
Great prices. Easy online ordering. You schedule your pick up time. Way cheaper than going to Giant Eagle, shop n save, etc. for meat of this quality. The meat packs plans are awesome and make ordering simple. Ill never go anywhere else. Best quality bar none for whats available in Pittsburgh.
I came early on Sunday because Saturday was not conducive to parking. This market is really extensive and more than ready to satisfy your curiosity of what a camel tastes like. The ofal and duck was packaged in convenient sizes and the prices werent extravagant unless you are.
Great prices and excellent customer service have everything you need
Love it pick a meat they have it. Bison,venison, kangaroo, gator
I love this place! I like to use ... unorthodox parts of animals to make stocks and soups. They have all sorts of meat from Alligator to Yak.
The service is always excellent never had a problem I have been going there for over 5; years very polite stacc
Knowledgeable high energy staff are always customer oriented.
Nice people, enjoy the visit, cant get use to the name yet. True Pittsburgh always will be farmers choice! 😊🖖
Like this place alot. Im a big meat eater though. I love the choice of exotics.
Great selection of quality products. Efficient service.
THE place for all your meat!!Loved the ribeyes!
A large variety of meats including Kangaroo, Camel, Elk, Venison and looks fresh. Service is quick, efficient and served with a smile.
Beef Bacon will transform you. The Jerky will Amaze you. The People will keep you coming back!!!
Wide variety of fresh and frozen meats. High quality. Super helpful staff! Will pre order next time but enjoyed browsing in store.
Very friendly, clean and great variety.
Great Service. So many awesome selections.
The selection from here is off the charts. My son loves their venison jerky. Their homemade sausages are worth the trip themselves.
Non-stop busy from start to finish. But the staff always is friendly and patient. Ive seen them deal with difficult people and turn around and call the next number and its like they hit a reset button. Pleasant and kind and all very knowledgeable.Be ready to wait a couple minutes, but its worth it for quality and selection
Always friendly and prompt as can be as they are very busy. I go through them for work and home stuff.
Great customer service just upset that they didnt have beef bacon Have to try again🌝
I love this place best place to get your fresh meat
This place is amazing. There are sooooo many choices of meats and also cuts of meats. I bought alligator tail filets, gound elk meat, ground rabbit meat, and also buffalo jerkey, wild boar jerky and elk meat jerky. Another cool part is that they take cash, card and EBT/Food stamps which means healthier meat choices for those on state help. Just sooo happy to have found this place!
Very friendly and fast!
We made the trip from Erie and decided on a package with a little of everything. Despite being busy, every customer was treated like they were the only one. Yet they moved quickly. They had ice available for our coolers. Amazing customer service when I emailed a question as well. We used some meats our first day home. Good tasting. Fresh. Highly recommend! Thanks!
Fun and refreshing
The service was great; however, the meat tasted horrible. I bought some pork soup bones and the quality of the meat was really disappointing. Well, 3 stars for the fantastic service...
Great meats! Good prices! Friendly people!
Always great service
The staff is knowledgeable and very helpful
Awesome to get what you need
It’s steak. Nbd.
The place to go, for good meat, they will take your temperature upon entering and a mask is required.
Everything that I have purchased has been great and i cant say enough about the staff.... They are all fantastic. I am glad to have found this butcher shop
First time shopping there. Very helpful staff and a great selection of meats, including exotics like boar, ostrich, alligator etc. Well be back frequently...
By far one of the best meat shops in Pittsburgh.
If youre a carnivore, . . . . MUST!. Name a meat - you can get it here. Wagyu! High-quality smoked meats. Bacon and sausage. And, . . . Snake. frog legs. KANGAROO! Organized chaos most days - but worth it.
What a rad place! Theres gonna be a bit of a wait, but its for good reason--there are a ton of people in there buying a massive variety of meats! The staff is extremely kind, helpful, and efficient--the queue moves steadily, so even if youve got a bunch of people in front of you, it doesnt feel like youre standing around for nothing.I received such great service and information from the staff that I am literally excited to go back.
Huge variety of exotic meats
Theyre all very kind and knowledgeable. I went there with no idea what type of ribs to buy and the gentleman explained each type individually and helped me choose. He was incredibly patient with me.
VERY GOOD GREAT MEATS
Came here because I heard they had a wide variety of meats. Nothing could be further from the truth. This place has such a wide variety of meats both common and exotic that it is almost overwhelming. This was my first time here and the worker behind the counter that helped me was great. I wish I had a place like this near me.
Great selection of Quality Meats. Even has Japanese Wagyu
I always love coming to Strip District Meats!! The selection is amazing and you can pretty much find everything you were looking for!!
Amazing selection of Wagyu, exotics, and hard to find cuts!!!!
The lines was a lil long for the cold but the prices an the food worth it
I might give it another chance, but we stopped in to buy filet mignon and they offered us frozen cuts. I thought the point of a meat shop was to buy fresh meat? It wasnt even late in the day. We got there at 10:30 am.
I purchased 500 beef hot dogs for our back to school picnic. Everyone at Strip District Meats - from Nancy who helped me, on the phone, to price items to Adam who carried the cases out to my car - was super! Friendly, professional. A great locally owned business. Will definitely be back. Thanks!
Unbelievable selection of every possible meat and every possible cut from that animal all served up and displayed in a clean and organized fashion. Very fair prices also for the rarity of their products. Located in the heart of the Stip District along with plenty of other food shopping options. Would recommend stopping.
We have been going here for years. Awesome service busy at times, however its worth the wait. Their meats are always fresh. The exotic meats are excellent.
I absolutely love this place. The customer service is amazing. You walk through the door, & the employees greet you immediately. They are eager to help & answer any questions you have, instead of acting annoyed & rushing you. They have such a large selection of meat, including exotic meat. They have both printed & displayed menus, which is helpful, since their selection is huge. I hate the strip district parking on the weekends, but I’ll make a special trip for strip district meat. Worth it!
Great service and amazing variety and quality.
This place is the bomb! They have pretty much EVERY kind of meat you could be looking for. They also do packages for parties, entertaining, etc. Busy environment. My faves are the rattlesnake, boar and rabbit.
Had a great experience and their selection is amazing.
Nancy was super helpful when I came in to buy some bones to make stock. She gave lots of good advice and set me up pork neck and beef femur to take home. Im super excited to get these boiling! Im going to be back to try the chicken back bones too.
They kept the patrons inside to the limit and took our temps upon entering. They clearly care about their meat and their customers!!
The best above and beyond above the rest!If you want way beyond quality food and way beyond quality customer service, this is absolutely the place place to be. They are all amazing people. Absolutely the best attitude, so greeting, they make you enjoy your visit, also again, the meat is amazing. Top knoch above the rest, the cuts, the pricing, and again service makes it all of what it could be!Never change! Thank you guys for being there!
I love coming here, my last visit out of many was great !👍🏾💪🏾 I have to get the young mans name & send him a thank you gift! But, I have this one complaint and it occurred this morning 😒 . I called one hour and a half before I left monroeville to pick up my package. The first time I called I was still trying to get my notebook out because the night before I wrote down everything I wanted. Anyways a lady picked up the first time & I told her I’d call back within that minute I called back. A man answered & I was sure he was young because I asked him in the beginning of the conversation if he had a minute to give me a estimate of the meats I wanted as if it was a package. He responded yes, so I started to tell him what I wanted & then he cuts me off & say oh well that sounds like a variety pack which I knew & already had written down. I responded I know that it’s the total of the meats that I wanted because I didn’t want everything that came with the variety package & as I said I had it written down on what I wanted so I can just read the list. So I did & he still asked me beef or pork for two items. I proceeded to ask him if he can give me a estimate for a whole duck & duck breast . He told me the price for the whole duck and then I explained to him that I wanted veal ground meat & tried to go back through the list again to make sure it was right 😒😫🤬😤I GOT THERE A HOUR AND A HALF LATER & NOTHING WAS RIGHT!He still gave me regular ground meat and I had to tell him no I asked for veal not regular ground meat . I got my whole duck when I got there and I requested a 10lb regular ground meat . He’s questioning me in my opinion at this point because he’s like“You have 5lbs of veal ground meat already” I responded I know I need a 10lb bag of beef ground meat. & at this point I knew he had a attitude. I pay and leave & as I get home I realize I have pork ribs and pork bacon !! 🤮🤢😷🤬 I’m furious because I hate the smell of it and also I don’t have a up and running vehicle right now so not only are your employee wasting my time & energy but my ride as well as gas ! So I will be going back up there & speaking with a manager because I come to this business way too often to be treated this way! So again yes awesome place to get meat but, some employees are just terrible. I’ve been coming here for three years for meats answers have spent a nice penny on meats and other items . I would’ve rated a 4 but, this situation in my opinion shouldn’t have happen. When I make my orders it’s under nay ..
Took my temperature upon entering, and my number was called shortly after walking through the door.
Great Quality and amazing staff. The wait time here is slightly longer but the quality and freshness is amazing. They also carry a large selection of specialty meats to include venison and alligator.
Quality meat with a knowledgeable staff. Theres a reason theyre always busy. I will brave the Strip District parking any time I need quality meat for my smoker.
Love coming down here to shop. No matter how long you are in there, its so worth the wait. Very busy store but the employees are Awesome. They help folks non stop. They barely make time for themselves to breathe. Meats are always fresh. And the bonus is make sure you fill out the little survey because every month is a drawing to get picked as the winner for a meat package! Its real and teue because I was a Winner!!🎉🎉Yess go me!!🥰🥰
Great place to shop for fresh meat at great prices
Amazingly fast service, very professional. Employees are also knowledgeable about the products as well. Great low prices.
Been shopping there 23 years. Great crew there now. But some of the popular product lines have changed. You want lama, alligator, ostrage. Buffalo. You can get ., but big bone ribs are gone from this place forever....
The guy who helped us, showed us (me and my boyfriend) every meat we wanted to see. We were very curious and came out of it with kangaroo meat. The staff was friendly and helpful. I will definitely go back. I cant wait to try this kangaroo.
I really like this place. Every option of meat possible. Great prices. I always have a great time with the staff. I stock up my deep freezer for $80 in this place.
This is the only place I can find veal for the veal picatta I like to make. Its frozen but it still tastes fine. Great selection and good service. The prices seem about on par also.
We called ahead to reserve a Turkey breast and we were able to get in and out quickly. Friendly staff and great meats. We will be back
Extensive menu of meat🥩, housemade sausage🌭, exotic meat🐫🦌🐃, birds🦆, and reptiles🐍🐊🐢. I love this place hands down🙌🏾, one of the best places in Pittsburgh to get your meat, especially if you have a knack for alligator or camel😂. One of my absolute favorite items to get from there is their housemade all beef kielbasa. I also tried their kangaroo jerky, it was really good, hardly even noticed it was a marsupial. 🤸🏾♀️🤸🏾♀️
Best meats and hospitality !!! I brought my 2yr old and 4 yr old with me today! Lewis gave me a great deal and walked my packages to my car! Thanks guys
Great wild meat selection and very knowledgeable employees
Loved this place as the meat you get is really fresh and the best part is that it is cheap. I used to love the goat I got here at only 4.49 a pound which is half of what you get elsewhere. The boneless and skinless chicken thighs was also very good and cheap.
Love this place. I get all my meats from here and I live 50 miles away. Best time to go is in the morning and always take a ticket when you enter.
Personalized meat candy shopping amazing people honest prices
I am still to call and get an answer that they dont have what i am looking for. Very well supplied, friendly people and wide variety. The quality of the meat is better than in the big stores.
Awesome selection and knowledgeable staff. Were willing to help me select the right cut to make jerky and even got me to get some camel to try!
Endless meats! Exotic meats! Superb customer service. Try the yak ribeye.. Unbelievable quality.
One of the best around
