Not cheap but if you're looking for a great piece of meat, you pay the price for quality. One of the butchers tied it up for me and even seasoned it and gave me some recommendations. I put it on the smoker in the next day and it wasn't an incredible piece of meat. Everyone loved it and raved about it. Definitely recommend this place for their assortment and customer service.

Wow. If you are looking for smoked or cured fish as a souvenir from Seattle, you better put down…read morethat kitschy boxed stuff and come here! The fish here tastes and smells like the high quality, flavorful, well-made stuff it is. The fish looks beautiful too. They let us try the regular smoked salmon, the garlic, and the candied. All superb. Be warned the candied stuff - heck, all of them are addicting. The cost may seem high, but it is completely justified. You aren't getting bottom of the barrel keta (translated from native tongue to "dog") fish or "pink" salmon (only 1 tier up), you're getting fresh fish. There was no hint of gross "fishy" smell before or after eating. (To make your salmon last longer, may I suggest enjoying your salmon with rice and veggies, or in a sandwich?) They also sell high quality pork, beef, chicken, and other things in the freezer like sausage, duck, cheese. They also have pretty nicely priced wines for sale, from low $10s and up. Whites, reds, and bubblies. Highly recommend you make the side-tour to this joint for salmon. A fish dressed to impress that will win you praises.

B&E Meats & Seafood we just stumbled across as we were exploring downtown Des Moines (Washington)…read moreand Steve wanted to go in and check out the place. The meat and seafood selection here is considerable! I didn't spot a whole lot exotic meats that I have seen at other meat shops but this is still a really cool place! Lots of fresh meat and seafood at your disposal. The staff here was super friendly and helpful! They had refrigerated cases of craft beer in cans so we found some that we didn't think would be as easy to find in Tacoma and took it home and enjoyed it. This was a very pleasant stop and one worth making a return to. We will bring refrigerated bags next time and get some meats !

She said all of the beef cuts are grass fed. The quality was good. Very thick and fresh cuts. We got the rib eye. It was more expensive than qfc but supporting local small companies... Parking is easy and small but close. They also have good veggies and fruit! Once in a while, we get coupons in the mail -so watch out for those! I used to go more often but often find myself going to qfc for other stuff...then I got lazy and didn't want to go to multiple places to get stuff. I should go more often though!

A friend of mine suggested this place, it had been on my list for some time, but I honestly forgot…read moreabout it. This place is the best example of how you can overcharge when your service and product far exceed expectations. I can tell you that I couldn't tell you the difference between corned beef or pastrami and never really cared. I don't like corned beef and if you can believe it, I've never had pastrami before. I had a half of Pastrami Dip. It came with chips, potato salad, a pickle spear and hydrox cookie. The half of sandwich had twice the meat that you would get on a full-size Arby's dip. The potato salad was about 3 oz, which was plenty based on everything you got with the dip. At $20 it would be easy to call the meal a rip off, but the quality, portion and flavor made it well worth it. My only know what the bottle of Snapple at $4 Those bottles are $2.50 or 2/$4 at 7-11 and the 6 pack is often on sale for $5 at Safeway, so at 2x minimum, I thought it was too much, especially since the place didn't have water, your only beverage choice had a cost. The beef was super tender. The flavor wasn't life-changing, but it was clear, their roasting process infused flavor. The au jus was r ally good, could have used some salt to offset the lightly seasoned beef, but it still worked. The service was flawless and welcoming. It was clear they were concerned about eat diners experience. I would have rather had fries instead of potato salad and chips, but if I return, maybe I'll try one of the burgers since they come with fries. No rush to return, but that doesn't change that this is an under the radar spot that you should give a try.

A place where you go to get a d*mned good sandwich. We ordered a Philly steak sandwich and a Reuben. Both sandwiches were intimidating in size. Flavor-wise, they packed a serious punch. Both sandwiches were loaded down with meat and were cooked to perfection. If you want a seriously good sandwich, this is your place.

There's a great variety of other meats such as bison and duck as well, though those are frozen. Great selection of rubs and spices as well. Love supporting local and with the quality of meats here, glad I am. I shop this place once or twice a week for the ground beef alone and always pick up a few other things each time.

I thought the…read moresnack bar had some more sauces where you could make your own but there's only one on your table labeled dipping sauce. The pork belly comes with a sauce they bring for you. Speaking of pork belly they were too chewy we cooked it for long enough and it was still very chewy. Service was trash. The lady that was our server poured all the meat on our fryer so half of the meat was stacked on top of each other so it took longer to cooked. We're already on a 90 minute time crunch. If my step dad wasn't pestering the lady for a next round they wouldn't have checked on us and we would've been waiting for 30 minutes. While we were waiting for the second round the lady told us to turn off our heater when we're not using it, the man later came and turned it back on and told us to keep it at level 400-500. The next time we got the food she tried to put all the meat on the fryer again my step dad said "It's okay we got it, thank you" she looked at us like we didn't know what we were doing. Later on she looked at how we put everything on the fryer she looked and laughed at us TWICE.
