    Cindy L.

    Babel Mediterranean/mid-eastern market. This was my first visit, after eating at an amazing restaurant next-door called Caroun I decided to check out the stores that are in the same strip mall. I was pleasantly surprised to find this place. Mark answered all my questions and even help me find a few things that I was looking for. I bought spices, olives, tea, beautiful glass tea cups, sugar cubes, French press for my tea, and...... I really enjoyed the employees and the customers. I WOULD GO BACK.

    5.09 for 1 pound and 11 ounces of $1.49 a pound of cucombers. In addition, that 6.94 was for a pound of dates prices at 3.99 a pound.

They've got everything from barbecuing essentials and specialty seasonings to bold hot sauces and even a cold beer to enjoy while you shop. And then you make your way to that beautiful deli counter. That's when you truly appreciate the value of a real butcher. The quality, expertise, and personal service, it's a completely different experience compared to your typical grocery store. They also have 'cuts' of bone for your furry friends. We grabbed a bone for our dog and can't wait for him to enjoy it! Von Hanson's isn't just a deli... it's a place for anyone (new to grilling or professionals) who wants to enjoy quality meat and find whatever they need to cook it!

    I haven't experienced this issue before, which is why I was surprised by my visit today. I…read morerequested five center-cut filet mignons, all cut to the same size, and trusted that they would be prepared as requested. Unfortunately, when I got home, the steaks varied significantly in size, and one was clearly not a center-cut filet. It was disappointing, especially since I was preparing a special meal on short notice. Update to my original review: After reflecting on my experience, I realized my original review didn't fully represent the business. From the moment I walked in, everyone was as friendly and welcoming as they have been during my previous visits. The staff was also very helpful in recommending some of their prepared side dishes, including the mac and cheese, twice-baked potatoes, and potato skins. They even provided cooking suggestions for both the air fryer and grill, which were appreciated. Although I was frustrated with how the filets were cut, I have to say the quality of the meat itself was excellent. The filets were incredibly tender, full of flavor, and everyone enjoyed them. The sides were also a big hit with our guests, especially the potato skins. I also want to recognize their outstanding customer service. The owner responded to my review promptly, and the store manager called me first thing the following morning to discuss my experience and make things right. That level of responsiveness and genuine care for their customers is becoming increasingly rare and deserves recognition. While my initial experience with the butcher counter was disappointing, I appreciate how seriously they took my feedback and their commitment to customer satisfaction. Because of that, I'll gladly continue shopping here and look forward to seeing the same high standards reflected in future visits.

    We recently asked our friendly butchers to introduce us to something we hadn't previously tried…read morehere. I grew up rurally and had never eaten pork chops bought from a store until moving away. Same with ribs. My father, a Journeyman electrician had friends who farmed and sold their own pork. None better! Rusty Nail's pork chops, especially their porterhouse cuts, are even better than the ones I recall so fondly from my youth. Tender, perfectly marbled and flavorful like none other. They're not "grocery store" cuts. We also bought a rack of baby back ribs. My least favorite step in smoking them is removing their membrane. Not only was this (attention to detail!) step already completed, they were fall-off-the-bone highest quality. So good! Unlike when I was young these chops can be grilled to medium or medium-well if preferred, preserving their juices and maximizing flavor. These too are now on our dinner favorites rotation. Simple seasoning with salt and pepper is all that's needed, although next time we're trying their seasonings. We will continue shopping here regularly. We've referred every friend who enjoys value and great meals too--in other words we have suggested to everyone we know to give these great people (and local ownership!) a try. Without fail our friends are truly grateful.

    We are really lucky to have this butcher in the area…read more Pros 1. Prime beef 2. Wide variety; everything from chicken to alligator (yep, you read that right) 3. Very helpful and friendly employees 4. The loaded and twice baked potatoes when they don't have much pepper (just a personal preference). Just reheat slowly in foil until soft and melty. Trust me. They are delicious. If you want one with less pepper just choose one with less black specks. 4. Amazing price when they have a sale. For their anniversary they had 10 pounds of prime beef (their choice) for $110! Phenomenal price and great cuts were in my mystery box. Cons 1. Save your receipts just in case you need to return something. I bought two whole chickens that ended up smelling off/bad (rare instance that this happened here). I was able to return them because I luckily still had the receipt. Wouldn't have been able to return nor exchange without the receipt.

I only ended up here because I've been on a bit of a backyard cooking kick lately. We've got a full outdoor kitchen and smoker, and today we're hosting a crowd, so I figured I'd go hunt down a solid brisket. That quick errand turned into something else entirely. Walked in and immediately knew I wasn't in a typical grocery store meat section. The selection is on another level. I went in with tunnel vision for brisket and walked out with a beautiful cut, plus a leg of lamb and a few Wagyu steaks that I absolutely did not plan on buying. No regrets. The quality speaks for itself. Everything looked fresh, well-cut, and handled by people who clearly know what they're doing. Not just tossing meat in a case and calling it a day. There were also some more unique options that caught my eye, the kind of stuff you don't usually see unless you're really looking for it. Definitely gave me a few ideas for future weekends. What really stuck with me though was the staff. Genuinely friendly, easy to talk to, and helpful without hovering. I asked a couple questions and got real answers, not some rehearsed script. You can tell they take pride in what they're selling. If you're into cooking, especially if you've got a smoker and like experimenting a bit, this place is dangerous in the best way. I came in for one thing and left with a whole game plan. Safe to say I'll be back next time we're in town.

I used to sneak in here just to buy sodas because it was close but once I had their food I was in trouble. If you're on a diet... come anyway... work harder Everything I've ordered has been really tasty. Just make sure you get there early as they do close early. Location is very clean, you can sit inside or out depending on weather and plenty of parking. Highly recommend !
