Definitely worth the visit, and we'll absolutely be back!

I have driven by Al's Prime Meat & Deli hundreds of times but it was never the right time to visit…read more Sometimes they were closed and other times I will have already eaten. Recently I made it a point to visit to pick up a sandwich for lunch and I'm really glad I did! Al's is very clean and welcoming. When you walk in the cashier counter is to the left, set at a right angle to that is the deli counter where sandwiches are assembled. The menu is mounted on the wall towards the back. To the right is a seating area. Across from the cashier is a fridge with various pasta dishes ready to heat up and eat along with some baked goods and lots of different kinds of chips to go with your sammich. I wound up ordering the Red & White Russian which includes Roast Beef, Turkey, Swiss, Horseradish, Deli Mustard, Lettuce, Tomato & Onion. You can have it pressed by request but I did not do so. I also ordered a side order of macaroni salad. The Red & White Russian was really good! The size was perfect and the bread was soft and chewy. There was a good amount of meat and cheese and I really liked the mustard and horseradish flavors. The macaroni salad was great. I would definitely get both of these again! I'm glad I made it a point to stop at Al's and I plan to do so again in the future!

You can really tell this place is all about quality and community. I'll definitely be making more trips to Cranford, Perrotti's is truly one of a kind!

No wonder nothing here has the prices posted. I guess if you have to ask, you can't afford it. I'll continue to shop here as necessary, but also buy my meat at Pat's, around the corner, Barth's Market in New Providence, Wegman's in Woodbridge, and now, Union Pork Store, on Morris Ave.

My aunt asked me to come here to pick her up freshly sliced bacon, she has been raving about it for years. I wasn't planning on getting everything else, but mentioned in passing to the guy behind the counter that I would buy a half pint of vodka sauce, but they only had full pints out. The guy asked me to hand me a full pint, and he put it in a half sized container and charged me half. I've literally never had that happen anywhere. Most people would've just said "oh that's too bad." This is definitely an old school butcher, don't expect to see state of the art scales, or beautifully written menus. You don't come here for that, you come here for the products. I see other reviews regarding prices not being marked, the owners definitely saw that because most items had prices per lb. All the prepared food was clearly marked. A lot of the reviews here are outdated. Shop small and local, give them a shot. They need your business more than Whole Foods, or the major chain grocery stores.

When we arrived, they had just taken out a tray of smoked salmon filets and smoked trout. Took a while to decide what to get, but settled on fresh kielbasa and coffee bacon, frozen duck sausage and maple bacon breakfast sausage, frozen pierogies/kluski/uszka, Kosciusko lager mustard, and German potato bacon salad. All the meats we tried were really tasty, especially the bacon. The potato salad was extra tangy. We bought a lot, so I ended up freezing some of the items, so I still have to try a few of them. The employees were super nice and friendly. One asked if any of us were Polish to make conversation, while the other was gathering our meat. We have also tried some other sausages in the past, including lobster sausage.

We've been having food from Pulaski's for Easter for years! Finally had a chance to go to the store…read moremyself the Thursday before Easter. It's a sizable store with a huge selection of items, practically a one-stop shop. Luckily it wasn't too crowded yet. Supposedly the line gets so long you have to wait outside. We love their lean kielbasa. We've gotten pierogies from here before but not on this trip. They offer two different "brands" with many filling options. They are at two very different price points. Mom's are $12.49 while the other type is about half that price. The stuffed cabbage is usually good but this time it was so salty it wasn't enjoyable. My parents were not too happy that they've now started charging 3% for using a credit card considering how much they spend. This kept them from buying as much as they usually do.
