It was truly excellent but the next one I bought (queen St) was pathetic. The photo says it all. This was a tiny bird that they charge a premium price for ($233.72) !. I wanted to be discreet by sending them a direct message (on X) I tried looking up their contact info (email?) and none to be found on their website. Needless to say, I am not a happy camper.

On a recent visit, I came across some stuffed pork loin cutlets on sale for only $2.50 each, an irresistible deal! I had it with some mini potatoes, green beans, heirloom carrots, and a mushroom gravy. It all tasted pretty good but would have been even better if I hadn't overcooked the pork. Yikes! I've gotten their (cooked) Meatloaf a few times and I like it. It's cheaper and a lot more convenient than making it myself from scratch. I often have it with mashed potatoes, corn, and green beans, along with a rich gravy. Yummy! I'll definitely be back!

This is not a voting contest it's a competition. All the great meats with many many made is store items. Try the feta chicken. Made in store bangers and more! They do a huge business in homemade pies. Not the dessert kind, chicken, beef etc. the pastry is to die for. I have one friend that comes over 100km and loads up and another that comes from about 60km. Family size and individual size. One third of the shop is devoted to this. My fav beef and bacon. Bring a cooler they are frozen. Friendly family run business

With old-world Italian vibes, the service is top-notch. The meat too. I especially like their sausages, which are quite affordable for the large portions. They also have a ton of dry goods and pantry items so it's more than just a carnivore's paradise. If you're looking for a shop that has everything you need for the perfect summer BBQ, this place is it.

There wasn't a huge amount of people. And while we missed the Saturday South market it was great to see so many of the vendors with such a lot of really good looking products. We hadn't checked out this vendor before but we were glad we did and we will be doing business with them again. They have a tremendous amount of really nice looking meets everything from steaks to chops to chicken - you name it. In particular I was looking to make a meatloaf and so they had a special on ground steak. 3 pounds for $15. We grabbed it up. And I believe they actually were a little more on the generous side in terms of weight. Fast friendly service and we made up the meatloaf and it was awesome. Totally will be coming back here I saw some really outstanding looking steaks that I think I will pick up next time. So don't be afraid to try this vendor. They have great meat.

I was asking questions about the dry aging of the Hereford prime steak and it was clear that he was annoyed by my questions, so he took off his mask and started yelling at me.

Anybody who has any self respect should stay from this horrible establishment. Fuck Delisio's! Don't stand for rudeness.

Expect to pay more than the regular grocery store but you know you're getting good quality. Sanagan's Meat Locker is not just another butcher shop, it's a meat lover's paradise. They cater to diverse palate ensuring there's something for everyone including offering seasonal and local game meats. But beyond the exceptional quality of their meats, what truly elevates Sanagan's is their outstanding customer service. The staff is not only knowledgeable but also incredibly friendly. They take the time to understand your needs and preferences and provide personalized recommendations.

Sanagan's Meat Locker is not just a Butchery, but also a market that showcases many high quality artisanal and local products. Their meats are always high quality and enhances whatever recipe you are using. There's also an educational aspect to Sanagan's. If you subscribe to their newsletter, or buy Peter Sanagan's book, you learn so much about what cuts of meat to use with what types of dishes, you discover hidden gems in cuts of meat, not to mention fantastic recipes. I had never heard of flat iron steaks (one of the most tender cuts of beef and very affordable) before Sanagan's and now it's a staple in my household. You are also able to order cuts of meat that are not available at the counter (I ordered duck hearts once) as well as order ahead online. The housemade sauces and charcuterie made by Sanagan's are also delicious. They might be slightly higher priced than supermarket brands, but they're highly worth it. Everyone is also super friendly and helpful at Sanagan's, you just know that they're being treated well there.

Choices are…read moreamazingly plentiful, I was able to find not just the normal cuts of beef, but even frozen beef bone marrow, foie gras, etc. Also I was able to find a pretty wide variety of Italian ingredients including many types of flour for pasta and pizza. Probably this store has some Italian background? They also have a wide selection of prepared meat items, for instance I saw they had ready to bake Beef Wellington :D However, I'm not too sure about the taste as I tried their breakfast sausage and it turned out far too salty for me. The other side of being a specialty store means...not having that much choices for other types of items. Produce choices are satisfying enough but of less variety than bigger supermarkets. I somehow liked their packaging of using ziplock bags for salad leaves and other produces, it saved me a bit of fridge space. Seafood choices are very limited. Being a person with a diet that stresses heavily on seafood and white meats, that weekend I did end up going for a second grocery trip to get all the items I needed. The store had very few customers during my visit. It has the feeling of a neighborhood grocer that serves only who knows this place - I happened to hear a customer talking to the butcher and it sounded like the customer had been coming to the store for food for a long time. Not a bad place at all if knowing what to expect from a specialty store.
