    Do you have hams for Christmas?

    Hi Bradley, thank you so much for reaching out. Unfortunately, we do not have hams for Christmas as we only carry Beef products.

I tried the Italian Sausage sandwich on a hoagie bun with marinara, mozzarella, and green chili--absolutely incredible flavor and a hearty portion! My wife had the BLTA on toasted white bread and loved it. The store itself has an impressive selection of specialty meats and cuts, including lamb, duck, bison, turkey, and plenty of beef options. Great food, great service, and an awesome selection. Looking forward to our next visit!

The prime rib was for my birthday dinner so my husband left his phone number with them. He received a call later that day asking if the prime rib should be fresh or frozen. They wanted to make sure it did not get frozen if it was being used right away. He advised fresh and commented at what good customer service it was to make the distinction. We went together for pick up. The person who helped us when through the entire smoker bundle to show us the contents and then got the rib roast. Everything was well packaged and arranged. Even though it was the Friday before a religious holiday, and many folks were picking things up, it did not take long for us to get our order, pay and be on our way. The meats we have received both on this order and in the past have always been high quality. Edwards is an excellent butcher shop.

    I've shopped here for over 30 years and always have had good service so I hate to write a bad…read morereview, but I would hate for this employee to bring down an important business in our community. I'm used to this store being open early (8 am) so this morning, when I walked in at 8:30 and I was kind of in my own head thinking about what kind of nice steaks I would like to buy for my son's birthday, I was abruptly yelled at and told to go away because the store was not open. It was so shocking and so rude. I thought the person was joking. I said you're joking right and she goes, "No, I'm not joking! We're closed! " Even though the doors were wide open, I guess they were open for employees coming in. I was ready to spend several hundred dollars, but instead I walked to my car and placed an online order from Snake River Farms. I got $25 off and two day delivery so I'm thrilled. It might be a while until I go back to Tonys. It's OK that the store was closed. I just wish the employee had used better tact.

    I think Tony's is great, although it is not without its flaws, as some have noted here. They are a…read moresmall, independent Market primarily focused on butchering and other proteins. As such, you get great cuts of meat, house-made sausages, bacon, pre-made meals, and roasts, etc. This fish selection is strong, and they have an excellent deli. That said, given they are a small independent shop, you will pay more for some staples, and you will pay more for higher quality items; you won't have the same selection of produce as a 60,000 sqft grocery chain. All of this, though, is fairly obvious when you walk in. Tony's is focused on quality over quantity.

    My new favorite barbecue spot in Denver! Was lucky enough to…read morestumble on this while walking around near a friend's apartment in Englewood, Denver has all these cool little pockets where it's very suburban and then all of a sudden you'll have a small corner with a few shops and restaurants and giving it a lovely walkable vibe. I could tell this place was going to be good because it was packed out at 11:30 AM on a Saturday. We decided to stop by and most people were ordering very large orders for takeout, but they have a good number of tables both inside and outside. The food takes a while to come, but that just means that it is all freshly prepared, and the staff are so nice and even give free samples. I went with the Kids meal brisket with the Potato salad and added a Sweet potato with the candied pecan butter. I seriously have no words -- all of these things were so delicious, and the amount of meat that you get even with the kids meal is more than enough to fill me up, especially with the rich sweet potato and potato salad on the side. I will be back as soon as I can, their hours are limited, and the drive is a little out of the central Denver area, but it is so worth it

That was missing here, the first indication that all would not go well. I soldiered on anyway, and ordered the 2 meat plate, pulled pork and brisket, with an extra rib bone and collard greens and beans for sides. The brisket and pork were both dry and had no smoke flavor. The rib was so small (an end piece) that they gave me 2; they were both overcooked and had very little meat on them. The sides were the only good part of this meal, but sides do not great barbecue make, hence the 2 stars. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The pitmaster visited our table and took our criticism with good grace, even offering to replace our food to see if they could do better, but I was done. I won't be returning.

I've tried everything from sushi and soups to tacos, seafood specialties, and more, and every meal has been excellent. They also have a fantastic happy hour, plus an "Hour Before Happy Hour" that's definitely worth checking out. One thing that really stands out is the management, they're always walking the restaurant, checking in on guests, and making sure everyone is having a great experience. It's clear they genuinely care about their customers. If you're looking for consistently great food, drinks, and service, this is the place!

Service was good, however, once we were very close to being finished, she came up with our bill. Gave 20% tip. We weren't offered anything else. At the time we didn't want anything else but being offered would have been nice. We stayed ONE hour AFTER paying our check. (Yes, we looked around and saw our table wasn't needed. Plenty of open tables. We were once Servers, we "get it." ) We sat with 5 empty and dirty dishes for almost an hour along with 5 empty cocktail glasses. VERY surprised as our server (and buser) walked by a few times in that hour and NEVER grabbed a dish or offered water refills or perhaps even another drink. We felt like, she got the tip, she's done. Disappointing.
