The name of this butcher shop is definitely appropriate, because what you get here are "quality…read moremeats." Their selection of Polish and Italian sausages is impressive and people flock there to buy them. We just had New York strip steaks from Urbaniak's for dinner and they were the best. We stop in there specifically to buy their Maryland crab cakes, which are the tastiest pre-made crab cakes we've ever had. Prices are very reasonable too. Erie is lucky to have such a quality butcher shop where everything is fresh.

The smoked chicken breast is absolutely delicious and the perfect meat for a cracker. Their smoked salmon is legit and I saw that as a native of Seattle who is VERY pick about his salmon. And their deli emats00well, if you associated delis with processed meats as I do--forget about it. These deli meats are truly slices fresh meats. Beyond fresh and local being a better choice to support your local community, it is also VASTLY healthier because it is not packed with sodium nd preservatives. So if you prefer a lower sodium diet like me, you can actually have deli meat again! (Try the ox tail--delicious tender and lightly salted but don't forget the free Au jus if you are a big salt fan). Prices: shocking, I would have to say on par or in the case of some of their cheeses BETTER priced than the grocery stores. So not, high quality and healthier options do not have to mean higher prices. OK, So the meats are delicious, the products are locally made and fresh and the prices are good. So what is the catch? Does the Service suck? No, not it does not. I have always received friendly service and timely. If you come in the morning, it can get very busy so remember to grab a number and try not to be rude or demanding. They are kind and courteous but no one likes a noisy jack ass. Overall, from my personal perspective, if you are buying meats for the grill, for your sandwiches or just as a tasty snack, you cannot go wrong with Urbaniaks.

Federal Hill Smokehouse absolutely lives up to the hype. From the moment you walk in, you're…read moregreeted by a welcoming atmosphere and the incredible aroma of authentic barbecue. The meats were perfectly smoked tender, juicy, and packed with flavor without being overpowered by sauce. The sides were just as impressive and tasted homemade, and the staff was friendly, attentive, and happy to answer questions. Portions were generous, and the quality of the food made every bite worth it. If you're looking for outstanding barbecue with excellent service, Federal Hill Smokehouse is a must-visit. I'll definitely be back!

The kind man at the counter was very helpful to offer suggestions, even looking up porchetta on his phone. I bought a beautiful pork loin that made a delicious pork roast.

I have NEVER experienced such poor customer service in all my life!…read more I called Bello's Food Market on Tuesday, November 14 at 10:57am and spoke to someone in the Meat Dept. I explained to him that I wanted to order 34 T-Bones/Porterhouses. He asked which one? I told him that I understand they come off the same roast, so to be nice to Bello's, I'd accept a mix of both so Bello's could use full roasts. I then told the person on the phone that I would be picking up the steaks on Tuesday, Nov. 21. Finally, he asked for my name, my phone number and how thick I wanted them cut. I told him that I didn't know what their standard cut was, but that I'd most likely want them cut a bit thicker. He said OK. On Tuesday, November 21 at 3pm, I called Bello's once again to check on my order. I told the person that I would be coming between 5pm and 6pm and wanted to make certain my steaks were ready. He asked if I had placed an order, and I told him I had. His response was that because the meat dept. would be closed when I arrived, he would put them in the case, and I could just grab them from there. That sounded odd, but I said OK. He finished off by saying they had been fresh cut that day! My wife and I arrived at Bello's at 4:55pm, and there was no one in the Meat Dept. The T-Bones and Porterhouses in the case didn't look good, and we found one or 2 packs that were dated 11/21. Several were dated 11/18, so they were NOT cut fresh that day! We asked the kind lady at the register for help. She couldn't find the steaks, so she called someone. The person on the phone knew nothing about the order, and we were asked to come back the following day. Unfortunately, we drove 60 miles and weren't going to make a return trip. I can understand that accidents happen and the first guy regretfully forgot to file my order. But... on the 2nd phone call the guy lied to me that the steaks were there AND he lied again when he said they were cut fresh that day.

They have such a wide selection of oils, and I really appreciated that many come with recommended recipes. It makes it so easy to try something new at home.

I also couldn't resist picking up a handmade ceramic garlic grater. it's beautiful and made such a perfect gift! The staff are incredibly lovely, friendly, and helpful, making the whole visit even more enjoyable. I'll definitely be back and highly recommend stopping by!

But the product really does speak for itself. I've had the lemon balsamic, the fig balsamic, the pomegranate balsamic, the Persian lime olive oil as well as the olive wood smoked oil.

Dorothy will provide you a sample of as many products as you ask for (I know from experience lol). I cannot recommend this store enough for your culinary needs. Any one of the products here makes a fantastic holiday gift for the home cook in your life!!
