If you find yourself even remotely close to St. Boniface, do yourself a favor and make a pilgrimage…read moreto this butcher shop - it's an absolute gem and a non-negotiable stop for us! They have a deli, vast meat selection, and hot food to order! They also have lunch specials so there's really never a bad time to come. Everyone who works here is so friendly, willing to offer help, suggestions, and food pairings. There is a small seating area inside but tables available on the front porch as well! Every visit here for us is a treat, but there are a few items that are consistently at the top of our list. I am absolutely obsessed with their pickle roll-up pasta salad. It's uniquely delicious and has that perfect tangy, savory balance that keeps me coming back for more. Their honey dill smoked salmon is another personal favorite; it's incredibly tender with a beautiful smoky flavor and just the right hint of sweet honey and dill. My husband is equally in love with their maple glaze smoked salmon - it's sweet, rich, and perfectly smoked. And for a quick, satisfying snack, his go-to is always their turkey jerky, which is packed with flavor. Beyond the specialty items, their fresh meats are simply unmatched! We've bought many of their steaks, and they are consistently fantastic (highly recommend their NY strips and tomahawks when you feel fancy). No matter how we grill them, they always turn out incredibly moist and juicy. But the real star in the grilling department I think might just be their brats. Seriously, the casing on these brats is perfection - it crisps up beautifully on the grill, creating that satisfying snap with every bite. I've tried brats from so many places, and none come close to the crispiness and flavor of theirs. The quality, flavor, and unique selection here truly make it a standout. This isn't just a butcher shop; it's honestly a culinary destination! A definite must-visit for anyone who appreciates top-notch meats and delicious prepared foods.

It's never a "hit or miss" place, it's good pretty much regardless of whos behind the counter. Also the PS bbq sauce and seasonings they carry are really good and have edged out my previous favorite (wee willy's). Worth browsing their deli and grocery options!

If you read my reviews, you know I love a good Reuben so I had to try The Butcher's Deli's version…read moreand it was pretty good. The meat:kraut ratio didn't have enough kraut and the cheese disappeared into the bread, but overall a solid outing. The Thousand Island dressing (fortunately on the side) tasted too strongly of mayonnaise. Luckily I had some and also had extra kraut. Girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do. I ordered the Potato Salad and it was bland but a little hot sauce made it taste good. Texture of the potatoes was perfect.

Old school all the way. There's a restaurant in the back, and a full-scale deli counter in the front. It is such a good stop. They have their own private parking lot too. Wood paneling, and a bunch of local reviews all over the walls. Clean, normal sound. Simple, with excellent customer service, and a huge menu that will have something that you like. Packed the midweek afternoon we visited, and we did not wait for a table. Loved my bowl of Matzo Soup, superb broth and the Matzo was delicious. Enjoyed my BLT on whole wheat and the homemade potato salad was amazing! Had a cherry cobbler for dessert that was incredible. Restaurant has been open for over 70 years, and I met the owner/manager, Cecil, afterward, and he just oozes customer service being a priority. It's a must-visit place.

The vibe inside is very Eastern European deli authentic which is so fun. They had tons of to go items for sale as well and a huge grab and go beverage selection. The seating area was spacious and packed on a warm spring day.

Best Asian food in Belle Plaine!!…read more Discovered this gem a couple months back with my boyfriend who lives in town and we get it once a week now! My favorites are the barbecue pork bahn mi (it's so good) and the chicken fried rice! Ruben sandwich is also very good. Small business right in downtown and owned by a kind woman who is always there and cooks everything herself to order. Has seating room but we typically take to go. Bathroom is clean and tidy. But seriously try the bahn mi!!! It comes w the delicious pork, sliced cucumber and jalapeños, yummy garlic Mayo on a very crisp bun and a side of pickled carrot/radish that is amazing on the sandwich!! She also has siracha and chili oil self serve that are great additions.
