The meat I purchased was intended for Christmas dinner and was bought one to two days prior to…read moreChristmas Day. I went to Five Points Meat Market to purchase approximately 11-12 bone-in short ribs. The total came to about 8.5 pounds, costing over $140. I have purchased meat from Five Points Meat Market in the past and previously received satisfactory cuts, so I did not thoroughly inspect the short ribs at the time of purchase. When I prepared the ribs on Christmas Day, I discovered that the majority of the cuts were almost entirely fat. I trimmed away as much fat as possible, but even after trimming, the ribs remained excessively fatty. Out of the entire order, I was only able to salvage about six ribs with a reasonable amount of meat, and even those still contained significant fat. Three of the ribs were unusable and had to be discarded due to the lack of meat. Because it was Christmas Day and grocery stores were closing as I was preparing dinner, I had no choice but to cook the ribs anyway. Despite removing most of the visible fat, a couple of my family members experienced mild stomach discomfort due to how fatty the meat was. While I understand that short ribs naturally contain fat and this is a dish my family prepares often, I have never received such poor-quality short ribs before. There were leftovers, but no one wanted to eat them. Overall, this was an extremely disappointing experience, especially given the price. In hindsight, I should have purchased the short ribs from Sprouts, where the cuts appeared to be significantly meatier, less fatty, and 100% grass-fed at a lower cost.

I didn't partake at the bar but what a surprise. Even their produce is tempting--I am a sucker for some fresh fava beans, the ginger was gigantic and so plump.

The bartender, Dianna, is usually on her phone and inattentive--it's easy to feel completely overlooked. When you do get her attention, she comes across as bothered rather than welcoming. If she's working front of house, the service really needs improvement. I'd recommend sticking to takeout or avoiding the bar when she's on shift.

Hi Have eaten there…read moremany times and the food and service seems to be more mediocre or poor. last time was in 7/14/26, our 30th anniversary which we told them about as they asked what we were celebrating. After a glass of wine and an appetizer at the bar happy hour we sat down for steak and lobster. overpriced and the steak wasn't cooked medium. The table wasn't wiped well sticky and the server wasn't having a good night. my wife gets very anxious if I ever make a request or change anything so I waited until I got home. Called about 8 pm no answers. next day filled the contact form and thus far no response. it was a wasted $150 and I won't go or recommend them to anyone until they explain to me what went wrong. Dissapointing

When I walked in I felt like it was like an old fashioned butcher shop, the staff is very warm & welcoming.

I decided to bbq everything I bought & I couldn't have been happier, it was so good, I even had some family over who were complimenting how good, & tender the meat was, & asking were I bought it! Im so excited to go back, maybe next time a trip tip & more chicken breast. Oh I almost forgot don't ever leave without the poppers there delicious.
