Visiting family in Chicago we visit Johnny G's to get some very good meats. Love their Italian sausage and their meatballs. The service is always fantastic and they will give you solid recommendations on what to eat. If you want to get some really good meats at a reasonable price you should check this place out! read more

Little hidden gem . I haven't had bad thing From fresh meat to prepared food you can find some goodie's depending on what you're looking for read more

Best fresh cut steaks I've ever had!!! Service and atmosphere is amazing! Keep up the good work!

Great selection of fresh meats, Italian sausage, brats , hot dogs etc. very friendly and knowledgeable service.

I know I'm not adding much beyond what has already been stated here, but I feel the need to add my own thoughts, because I am so impressed with this place. The wife of a good friend recommended that I try this to get my Italian sausage. She prepares fantastic Italian food, and I love to eat fantastic Italian food, so it seemed like a match made in heaven. Using our own spaghetti sauce family recipe, I purchased both mild and hot sausage to use in my sauce. While I was there, I went ahead and picked up their ground beef which I needed for that same dish. It turned out beautifully. Since then, my ex-wife (who had some of my spaghetti), picked up some of Johnny's mild sausage for a holiday dish she was preparing. That supper was also delicious! In this last visit, I just wanted to try some of their "atomic" sausage (extra hot) for sandwiches, along with some potato salad. The sausage was just what I had a taste for. Their potato salad was to die for, and their private label marinara is also delicious. People rave about their hamburgers, and I'm sure they are delicious. I like to make my own hamburgers, but I'll use their ground beef the next time I make them. Besides the mild. hot, and atomic Italian sausage, they have Barese sausage, and beyond sausage, all the other meat offerings you could think of. I also want to try their prepared meatballs next visit. Eventually, I can see myself trying almost everything here. I shop at both Whole Foods for some things and Jewel for others, so why not add Johnny's for my meat? The people here are friendly as hell, and so very helpful. They answer all your questions, and will make recommendations if you want them. The store is well organized and immaculate. I love it! read more

Their food truck was amazing! We booked their food truck for our daughters party and it was a hit. The menu included rib eye steak sandwiches, Italian beef, pub burgers and chicago style hot dogs. Sides: fries, cole slaw and potato salad. Our guests enjoyed themselves and the team was great. We'll definitely be sure to book again. We're regular customers of the butcher shop and are fans of their fresh made sausages. read more

Amazing butcher, I wish I started going years ago. Top quality and fair prices. Pork chop and steaks were the best I have bought

Fantastic sausages, steaks, eggplant parm and potato salad. I'm glad a coworker told me about this place. The homemade Giardiniera is awesome. First time trying the Barese sausage and it was so good. Such friendly service. I'll be back for sure. Great place. read more

First time I got to experience Johnny G's was at the Glendale Fest this past weekend. I ordered a burger the first day. Ribeye sandwich the second. Third day I had the ribeye again. Everything was so good! Fast forward to fest being over and I found out their food truck was open where their deli is. Thursday I had another great burger and today I tried their beef. Another great choice! Probably another favorite of mine. Never disappointed! I cannot recommend them enough! I am now known by name, probably because I can be a little difficult with my requests. Everyone is always pleasant and greets me with a smile. Big shout out to Grant and Javier!! Thank you for accommodating all of my special requests, from extra pickles on the side and cutting a small piece of the ribeye sandwich for someone special to me that just wanted to try it. Truly a hidden gem! You won't be disappointed! read more

Now ive got my source for lamb shanks! Finally able to find the best in the area for fresh meats/products. Staff is wonderful and helpful. The place is clean and will be back for more! read more

Johnny G's Quality Meats - a steak on a plate - Butcher Near Me - Bloomingdale, Illinois

Bar none, the best tasting burger I've ever had. We purchased the Cheddar Bacon Burgers Frozen and it was recommended we cook from frozen. We prepared them in a pan rather than grilling and it was the best. The burger edges get the restaurant prepared crisp bits, the seasoning, and quality of meat is spot on! read more

There's nothing better than an old-fashioned butcher. Steaks cut the order, homemade Italian sausage and good imported, deli meat, sliced just the way you remember as a kid. Can't say enough of this multi generation business. if you're in the neighborhood, stop by and give them a try, you can't go wrong read more

They have a very good and large meat selection as well as other items. They even have a food truck for a quick bite.

Everything thing I purchased was top quality and delicious. I purchased burger's meatballs and ground sausage all awesome Everyone was friendly. read more

What a impressive local butcher shop. Superb meat products, without a doubt. A bit on the pricey side but you would be hard pressed to find better beef and pork. They have a really fine selection of homemade sausages to boot. This is my new go to for fine grilling meats. read more

Fantastic meat as always. Nice people as well. Recommend the atomic with hot giardianera for some extra spice

Excellent food and service. The food truck has the delicious ribeye stake sandwiches.

There is something about the butcher shop that makes men (and some women) salivate. Johnny's is one of those places. It's in a non-descript strip mall at the corner of Schick and Bloomingdale Road and if you don't look close enough, you'll miss it. Once inside, you'll see high quality meats in the case, lots of frozen pastas in the freezers and a happy old man behind the counter. Their meat is wonderful. Yes, it's expensive but the quality/price ratio can't be beat here. What I love is requesting ground beef and they grind it up fresh for you right there. So if you are in the neighborhood and want to make that special meal for a loved one or just treat yourself to a quality piece of meat - stop by and say hi to Johnny. read more

Fantastic!!!! Tomato basil sausage w/ their Spicy pasta sauce!! Soo good! Made it for dinner tonight and my boyfriend LOVES IT!! Definitely returning to Johnny Gs Butcher!! Such nice guys! Thanks everybody for the great recommendations! read more

Johnny G's Quality Meats - Barese Sausage - Butcher Near Me - Bloomingdale, Illinois

Awesome homemade sausages and fine cuts of meat. Better come early on Saturday's because otherwise they sell out quickly.

This is the go to butcher in Bloomingdale. I love their Italian sausage is the best. Get the Martini sausage and you will enjoy.

OMG the Barese sausage is to die for!! The quality of the meats are fabulous. Bought a package deal for grilling and to stock the freezer and am very pleased at the quality of the meat and the quantity I received. The service from this family owned business is exceptional. They carried everything out to my car too. They've got a lifelong customer. read more

The meat was awesome. We got Bratwurst for dinner and they were fantastic. Everyone loved them all. We got sides the potato salad, pasta salad and macaroni salad. The guys working were so helpful and you can tell they take pride in this place. We can't wait to go back read more

Just picked up the Italian sausage and meatballs. Very flavorful but lean. Very friendly and helpful customer service. I'll be going back and I like they are open on Sunday read more

Wow.!!!!! T Bones were excellent, the Italian sausage is to die for!! Thanks !! You guys rock!!

Wow, wow, wow! The sausage made at Johnnie D's is nothing less than a culinary work of art! I have tried three sausages up to date and have been pleasantly surprised with each one of them 1. Pepperoni sausage left me licking my lips for a good hour, searching for more deliciousness. 2. Martini Sausage with olives and blue cheese, was a perfect blend. 3. Atomic Sausage was perfectly spiced, enough to feel it the heat, but not to hot where it burns your palette If your in the area or not, head over and try a sausage for yourself. read more

Bought a little bit of everything from here. Definitely can taste the difference between a grocery store meat and butcher. Steaks are of course wonderful, but so are the hamburgers, sausage, and bacon. Thought I made the best potato salad, but theirs is better!! Friendly, helpful staff. read more

Great please were amazing sausages from extreme hot atomic to the barese sausage everything was delicious also their potato salad is out of this world read more

To be honest, I was not the happiest with Johnny G's initially. Friends were giving me shit for going to grocery stores for my meat purchases and encouraged me to support local shops. And I'd have loved to, but I had been to Johnny G's a number of times between 2011-2015 and only ever made it inside the shop once in the 4+ years I lived in Bloomingdale. That's because the first time I went they weren't open when they were supposed to be. The second and third times they were also closed when they would normally be open. I think they were remodeling, or out of the country, or maybe it was an extended holiday. Nonetheless, they weren't open and I was getting impatient. The fourth visit was when I thought I might give up on them. I called that day in the early afternoon and specifically asked how late they would be open and was told 6pm. I rolled up at 5:45pm (stuck late at work and traffic) with every intention of quickly picking something up and getting out of their way, but I got out of my car at the same time as the lights were turned off and the door was being locked. The man leaving told me the selection wasn't the best at this point and suggested I come back the following day. I wasn't able to, but my Husband went and picked up a few steaks and sides. They were so good that I decided to give them another chance! And another, and another! They've won me back! The meats here are consistently delicious. We've been buying ribeye mostly and they will cut it to the thickness that we want. Johnny G's also has some ready-to-eat deli meats and cheeses, so that's pretty convenient. It's all affordable, too! If I wanted higher quality meats, I admit that I was going to Whole Foods in Elmhurst or Schaumburg. I often shopped at Lemon Tree Grocer in Downers Grove. However, I see no reason to go any further than Bloomingdale to get great cuts of meat now. And I can't bring myself to buy much from Jewel-Osco or Target these days. It's simply not the same. I think the key to success is to come in mid-Saturday, because that's when I've had the best luck. That's when I've found they are always open and the choices are still plentiful. The men working there are always in a good mood, too. The last time I stopped in, one of them even asked me if I'd been there before. I told him I had and he asked if I found things were getting better or worse. I wholeheartedly told him they were getting better each visit! We live in Wood Dale now, so it's not as convenient as it was. But I think I'll continue to come here for special ocassions. read more

Best butcher shop in the suburbs !! Johnny is a great guy who takes pride in his work. I have ordered from here a couple of times now and every time I get rave reviews about my BBQ skills !! Trust me it's all Johnny. The way the meat is ground and the quality is just beyond phenomenal. A favorite of my are the atomic sausages.Super duper spicy and with the burn next day ! I tried the pizzalo sausages and the bacon cheeses burgers this weekend. Definitely hit the spot. Will be returning again and again. read more

I traditionally host Christmas Eve dinner. Rather than our regular Honeybaked Ham, I wanted to do something different. I decided on a roast tenderloin. I shopped around a bit, and found the prices at Johnny G's to be about $8/lb cheaper (still $17/lb). My dad picked up the meat for me, so I can't comment on the store. When I called to place my order, they were very helpful in determining the right cut of meat, quantity (they were spot-on), and cooking time/temperature. The meat was very well wrapped (many layers of plastic wrap and two dominick's-type bags), though bloody. I suppose this is par for the course when you get fresh meat from the butcher, rather than Whole Foods or Jewel (where I get all of my other meat). I got tons of compliments from everyone on the tenderloin, it was the perfect roast. Update: I went into this store last weekend for some deli meat. There were two older guys working behind the counter. (No, neither one was named Sam.) One guy was very nice and helpful, sliced my pepperoni (made pizza), offered suggestions for cut and quantities for veal parmesan, and explained the differences in their sausage ad nauseum. Very Mayberry, it was nice. The other guy was quite chatty and odd. The helper-man tried to shoosh him, to no avail. Finally another customer came in and got him to zip it. "Charlie, are we here for a politics lesson, or meat? Leave the poor girl alone!" I would definitely come back here -- except for the creepy cow head on the wall, they have a great selection of meat and some hard-to-find Italian canned/jarred goods. (Lupini beans and such.) read more

Johnny G's has the best Italian sausage on the planet, period. With the varieties of sausage he makes, hot, mild, tomato basil, and more there is something for anyone who likes Italian sausage. It doesn't stop with his sausage, his steaks, chops, any of his meat is excellent quality. Oh, and if your a lover of potato salad, give it a try, you won't be disappointed. read more

My family and I have been going here for a while now. Johnny is usually behind the counter, always friendly and courteous. Great product, great service, great price. What more could you ask for? read more
