As my friends and I looked around, one of the staff came over to chat over the coffee we ordered next door. She helped my friend find a good gift for our friend's dog.

First time here today! Wow! I love this place. Super friendly as you can see from other reviews…read more And! Very funny, the gentleman, as we walked in, asked if it was one of our birthdays?! Odd, as we were not in festive dress, but it was my partners birthday! He was cutting some amazing ribeye, and that's what we were looking for--he said he got us, and wow. Take a look at those steaks! Selection is good! But, a small place can't be expected to have 100s of items, but everything is carefully chosen and fresh. I'll be back for those oxtails for sure! Also, there was a very wonderful lady there with her fresh baked goods, not sure if that's a regular thing or or a pop up, but shout out to the strawberry pound cake. This is now going to be our regular spot for great meats! As far as price goes, I would say competitive with Gartner's and even some groceries, but this place is special, so you get what you pay for. Oh, and there's a big parking lot in the back, which is great on the busy street.

The brisket was a little dry but good pieces. I like the fatty kind. The atmosphere was a happy place. They had a great bar with all kinds of bourbon. Our server was very busy and tried to please everyone. I am going back there definitely for the ribs.

Took a coworker out for lunch and found this place through Yelp. We arrived shortly after opening,…read moreso the restaurant was quiet and the staff was very friendly and attentive. My biggest disappointment was finding out that the two items that caught my attention on Yelp--the brisket mac and cheese and the tacos--were only available during happy hour. I even offered to pay the regular menu price for either item, but was told I'd have to come back during happy hour if I wanted to order them. Instead, I ordered the pulled pork sandwich with a side of mac and cheese. The mac and cheese was excellent and easily the highlight of the meal. The pulled pork sandwich was decent, but the flavor felt a little flat and could have used more seasoning. I was also surprised there wasn't any salt and pepper on the table, so if that's something you like, be sure to ask for it. Overall, the food was good and the service was good. While I enjoyed the experience, it's probably not a place I'd go out of my way to visit again, though I'd stop in if I was already in the area.

I purchased some of everything, including a pie, and everything we've tried so far has exceeded my hopes. The best part is the products are sourced fairly close. No meat from Australia here. The information about the different ranches and farms is in their website and on signs in the store. They are also happy to talk with you about them. The store is charming and welcoming. Be aware that parking is tricky. There's a bus stop directly in front of the store and there's only one spot in their parking lat and it's only for vehicles needing wheelchair accessibly. The only place to park in front is on the curb just before the store.

They also have a huge selection of rubs and sauces for that meat! I will definitely be coming back and would recommend you pay them a visit as well. So awesome to have a quality butcher so close to home!

It is as though you take a step back in time, where customer service mattered and you have a butcher who cares. It doesn't matter if you get a greenhorn meat cutter or the Owner you treated the exact same with respect. They still use the take a number from the roll method. It doesn't matter the day, it doesn't matter how busy they are you are always treated like the only person in the market. Their breakfast sausage loose or in links is fantastic. I haven't found a better flavored sausage anywhere. Any of their smoked meats are to write home about. We like their soaked beef short ribs. Have your grill HOT and be ready to grill with those ribs. Their habanero BBQ sauce is delicious spicy good. If It's meats you want! it is meats Gartners delivers. I could go through each item in the cases from the ham to the brisket and tell you why each thing is better than the next!! I recently started vising a meat store by my work. I got some sausages. When I got home there was a pube in the package. In 30+ years of getting my meat at gartners I've never had anything extra wrapped with my meat. Another fine example of why Gartner's stands the test of time!! Thanks Gartner's!

I have visited Gartner's Meat Market about ten times now, and overall I've been pleased with both…read morethe quality of their products and my experiences there. I was excited to find a quality local meat market in the Portland area, especially given how few dedicated butcher shops remain. Unfortunately, I feel obligated to share a recurring issue that has left me questioning whether I will continue shopping here. On my visit today, it appeared that I was overcharged again. If this had happened only once, I would have assumed it was a simple mistake. However, this is now the fourth time in a row that I've encountered what I believe to be an overcharge, and at least twice it has involved the same employee. On two previous occasions when I noticed the discrepancy and brought it to the butcher's attention, he reviewed the transaction, acknowledged the error, apologized, and issued a credit. Because of those experiences, I felt confident that mistakes could happen and would be corrected. Today, however, when I raised a similar concern, my concern was explained away. I didn't have time to ask that everything be reweighed, so I left feeling frustrated and, unfortunately, taken advantage of. To be clear, I have generally found the staff to be friendly and professional, and I've been consistently happy with the quality of the products. That's what makes this issue so disappointing. When the same type of billing discrepancy happens repeatedly, it becomes difficult to view it as an isolated mistake. I sincerely hope this is the result of a training or process issue rather than anything intentional. Gartner's has a good product and fills an important niche in the community. However, after experiencing this multiple times, I am seriously reconsidering whether I can continue shopping here with confidence.
