I wandered in one Saturday morning, there was a very large crowd of shoppers buying a LOT of meat. Bring a coat, the entire building is a cold locker. Butchering operations were all around, lots of lamb in addition to beef and seafood. For as busy as they were the staff was polite and nice as they explained things. Good prices. The checkout area was crowded. read more

This is a wholesale halal meat market, so prepare yourself, you're walking into a meat locker. Incredible pricing on halal meat. Everything is high quality. They have fresh, frozen, and cut to order meat. Need whole fresh chickens? A whole lamb? Goat? Some oxtails? Ground beef, chicken, lamb? Frozen fish? Beef pepperoni? Beef heart? Lamb chops? They've got you covered. It's busy on the weekends, but have a parking lot on site. (Also, randomly found out about this place via TikTok, so to whoever is doing your social media...it worked.) read more

Second time ordering from their website to ship to New York. I absolutely love their meat! I have ordered chicken breast, thighs, and leg quarters. Just recently purchased something new - their rib eye - can't wait to grill it! The order is shipped perfectly- fast- organized - insulated and still frozen when I get it. Perfect for stocking my freezers. Saad employees go above and beyond! I absolutely recommend them for any meat your looking to buy! read more

Went on a Tuesday before Ramadan, extremely packed. This was my first time here and I will definitely be back, store was very clean. Workers constantly bringing product out, exchanging bins and product and keeping everything moving along. The prices are great, and selection is incredible! Will be back again. read more

A halal meat market in Eastern market, how can you go wrong? This place is everything you would think it would be. It's out of the way it has a dirt parking lot and you walk into what seems to be a store size cooler, LOL. My first impressions were I'll give this place a try and see how it goes, and I was very happy. They have lots of Frozen selection that you buy by the piece, (please use gloves) and they have freshly butchered meat including lamb mutton and goat. They're pre-cut Frozen lamb chops are inexpensive but not the best cut however they taste just as good. If you want a new experience or if you have some specialty needs check this place out. read more

After my adventure at Berry & Sons I went down Orleans street to Saad Wholesale Meats at 2814 to check out what kind of meat they carried. This butcher store is more like a butcher shop. When you go in there is a lobby that you go into when you enter the building, on the right hand side there is the entrance to the cold room, this is a large room with meat cutters working as well as the room having lot of tables and bins with all kinds of meat piled up on them. Here I got a boned out leg of lamb to make Lamb Ham. As I type the the lamb is in the brine and in a couple of days it will be going in the smoker. As well as lamb they had chicken and beef. There was a table with many boned out primal cuts of beef. I ask for a rib eye about an 1 1/2" thick and one was cut and bagged up for me. When I got it home it was just a beautiful cut of beef deep red, except it wasn't a rib eye, to be honest I'm not sure what cut of beef it was. I treated it like a rib eye did a reverse sear and it was just wonderful!! Highly recommended read more

First visit was unplanned. Went for a burger at Cutter's (no need to repeat) and drove by Saad. Decided to swing in after the burger and was taken aback by the facility. Butchers working on sides of beef, cutting steaks at the band saw and assisting customers. It's a help yourself environment with gloves readily available. The whole place is a true meat locker. A bit gritty but full of meat. I purchased 5lbs of ground lamb and lamb chops. Ground lamb was packaged ready for you in a bag and lamb chops were in a box open for your choosing. I purchased 10 or 12 and haven't cooked them yet, but anxious to do. The ground lamb was beautiful. Pristine red with a good amount of fat and coarse ground, perfect for my home recipes. I made fatiya, meatballs, and stuffed cabbage. I'll be back for more ground lamb and chops. Might go for steaks next read more

Have you ever been to a wholesale butcher shop? I haven't and so I showed up in shorts, flip flops and a T-shirt. Mistake, it was like a Michigan winter inside that place. Plus they were other customers so I stood there nearly freezing to death. Eventually someone helped me and I stood out near the cashiers where it was summer again. The staff was wonderful and helpful. Prices were pretty decent for halal meat. read more

The quality and quantity of their food and the service is quick and out the door! Better hours? And more baskets for the food!

Surprised I haven't been here before, but they have everything - chicken all ways (whole, tenders, wings, etc) a ton of beef products, as well as lamb (whole ones). I stuck to chicken and bought a jug of the tawook marinade - came out amazing at home. For the price, especially if you are buying quantity, go here. read more

Fantastic quality number one! The butchers filed 2 beef tenderloins trimmed off the silver skin and cut them for kabobs. They came out wonderful! Very good price for the high quality! I would recommend Saads Meats to anyone looking for high quality meats read more

Best Halal Meat Market in Detroit, MI hands down. I've been to many meat markets in the area and none are as clean as Saads. If your looking for nice prices with great quality meat please go here. read more

Everything about the meat I got from here was phenomenal. The place itself is not the most inviting--but how inviting do you want a butchery to be? Wear a coat and be prepared to stick your hands in some gloves to dive into the raw meat. If you want clean and delicious meats, come here! We got a few chicken drummies, lamb shanks to die for, ground turkey, and some rib eye steaks. My girlfriend looked at me once we finished eating the drums and said, "This taste like chicken. Like actual chicken". We didn't realize how flavorless the meat we'd been eating from the average grocery store was! the lamb and turkey were the same--not gamey, but very fresh! read more

Great service,quality meats,& if your having a hot flash,You won't for long!!! Guys are friendly. read more

I have been buying meat from them for couple of years now. looking at the gas prices now, and their prices I don't see much difference. Yes chicken and steaks n all is good and cheap, but they always rush everything. for nice and friendly service, go early morning. read more

OK, it's gritty, So are the Eastern Market and Detroit. If you're squeamish or easily frightened by surroundings, don't come to Saads. It's real. A lot of people don't like reality. If that's you, then go elsewhere and pay more for lesser quality. BUT if you want the best halal meat available at very fair prices, then do come here. A friend introduced me to Saad's a couple of years ago. I've come back several times a year. BTW, the butchers and the check-out people are enormously polite and respectful. So I cannot understand why some reviewers think differently. Bottom line for me: the best halal butcher shop going in SE Michigan. I love coming here. read more

Saad Wholesale Meats has excellent meats, but the gentleman that helps to the car with unloading was very rude, disrespectful very unfriendly. He has no customer service!! I would not recommend his help to anyone!! read more

I tried this store recently. Been looking for a place to buy inexpensive meat, especially lamb and goat. They do sell for less, and there seems to be quite a bit of variety. I especially liked that they sell goat shanks (1.69 per lb) and lamb shanks. These are awesome for making bone soup and other ethnic dishes. Haven't been able to find these anywhere else in the Novi/Farmington area. Wholesale goat is cheap (2.69/lb) compared to more than double that in Indian/Middle Eastern meat stores. The only catch is that they only sell a whole or half a goat, not retail. They will chop it up for you though. It's not so bad, half a goat comes to about 12-15 lbs, so you could stock up or split with friends. Cons: I thought the sales people weren't the friendliest. They sell from inside a big meatlocker as well, like most wholesalers. So if you get squeamish at the sight of a bunch of skinned animals hanging from hooks (heads intact with the skin off!) get someone else to go in for you =) I will go back again and write if the experience is any different read more

First time ever coming here and I was pleased on how they treated me and was very helpful on the different meats the sell and prices for all of them. I do like the whole cutting the animal right there instead of looking at mystery meat. The staff was friendly. The cuts of meat were cheaper then going to Walmart or Meijer. I'll be coming here now on for my goat and lamb. read more

What a wonderful experience!! Everyone was very friendly, from the ladies up front to the butchers in the back. I bought a whole Lamb to roast on a spit. The price was very reasonable! I will go back again! read more

I placed an online order so I don't have to go inside with my 3 kids. 5 minutes later, they called me to clarify the order. I got there, they went over the items, and put it in my trunk. Awesome service, awesome meat, great new online ordering. Highly recommend this place for anyone. read more

Shout out to my Main Man Mo! He is always right on and can make sure you get the choice cuts! Plus everything is super fresh, clean and cut just how you like it. I am a regular here and it will stay that way for as long as they are around. Can't beat the prices and location is great. read more

The meats prices are very inexpensive. That is the only positive I can think of. Some of their employees are very very rude. For that reason, I'm giving one star. read more

Great meat market and butcher. Depending on the day there is a language gap with the workers. Meat is always fresh and at a good price.

Freshest meat, clean place, cheapest prices around and very friendly staff. They carry a wide variety of meats and chicken. Can't forget the lunch meat "Sharifa halal" the best i have ever tasted. If you haven't checked this place out yet, you definitely should :-) read more

Love this place very cheap and great service love the way the workers there run up to you and ask if you need any help and they get you what you want fast I'll defiantly be coming here again read more

Absolutely love this place. I will not get my meat from anywhere else. The staff is so friendly and willing to help anyone that has any questions. Everything is very reasonably priced and I feel like I get way more for my money than if I went anywhere else. Love the quality of the meat as well. I am never disappointed. read more

Great Service!! I was able to use my EBT Card. And good prices, normally I use up the entire money on my food EBT Card shopping at your regular grocery markets, and by the middle of the month I'm out of food. But, not at Saad! At Saad I was able to over fill my freezer.. So glad they take EBT. This meat will last me probably a month to two months but I'm still going to make sure I shop there every month... read more

First time shopper from one who does buy there meat from a butcher counter instead of prepackaged, I was very impressed the staff was helpful, the prices were fantastic and loved the fact they took my lamb shoulder and cut it into stew meat saving me a lot of time. We will definitely be doing most of our meat shopping at Saad's. read more

For starters, I found this Market on Yelp. I was looking for a place to buy affordable lamb. My heritage is English and Irish, and grew up regarding nice leg of lamb and chops as part of our diet, and it has always been my favorite meat meal. If you do love lamb do not be put off by the market, which is basically a big refrigerated room with a few whole and 1/2 lambs and goat, hanging from racks in the middle of the room and one wall with bins (?) filled with less preferred cuts , shanks, hearts livers etc, I didn't see any legs or chops or ground meat for sale there.I am guessing they were going to restaurants. The meat I got was high end restaurant quality. First off most of the customers were ( like me ) buying a half or whole lamb to be cut up to order. I chose a whole lamb. 28 lbs I chose to have it cut into 2 legs 2 shanks, and the rest into chops and shoulder steaks?. (more than 2 dozen of the choice little chops plus maybe 6 more shoulder steaks) What was left was about 8 lbs of meaty bones and plate for stews, soups and broth for barley soup YUMMM All of this for $3.89 per lb. Of course I did the taste test right away ,(while I was packaging with my seal a meal.) I personally prefer a little " gamey- er" flavored lamb like you get in Australia and Ireland this is more for American taste, a mild hint of lamb . but I am definately not complaining, and my guests will prefer it I am sure....It was delicious!!! I did buy 2 goat shanks I may like that even more. Professional helpful staff, a great young man who insisted on helping me to my car. Even not knowing what the heck I was doing, I was in and out in less than 20 minutes. read more

they sell for less since it is like wholesale but the location is in the getto of detroit. the place is a big cooler you freeze your ass in it. a big selection of meats, chicken and ready to cook meats. service is not great, so if you like to save few bucks it is worth a shot. read more
