I just went to Perrotti Meats for the first time yesterday! I've had their chicken salad before…read morewhen a coworker brought it to work, and it was so good that I made the 45-minute trip just to get more.... and it was so worth it! Hands down the best chicken salad I've ever had!!! The staff was incredibly welcoming and kind, and even the customers were so friendly. 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!

I've been picking up food here for over 25 years. I've never had anything bad. All the meat is…read morefresh and we like picking up package entrées for dinner or to put in the freezer. This time, I had the beef, lamb, and chicken kebabs. I love lamb and these were excellent. My only issue is that I never get an itemized receipt so when someone asks me what I paid for a specific item, I don't always know. I picked up a container of the red potato salad for the first time after a friend raved about it. Good choice Jeff!

This is a family owned butcher and meat shop located in Edison. The owner, Sonny, is welcoming and…read moreextremely hands on. They had a fish fry outside of their market during the summer, and Sonny was right there bringing the fish out and helping with orders. The market is clean and well organized. I like the idea of getting my meat from a butcher rather than the larger supermarkets I'm used to. I've heard Sonny's prices are higher, but that's often the flip side of supporting small and local which makes it well worth it. I will make sure to stop by the next time I'm in the area.

I called Sonny's Meat Market to get some tenderloins for a friendgiving back in November, and I was…read moreso pleasantly surprised to hear that none other than the owner himself picked up! He was very generous with helping schedule a payment and pickup time, making sure I knew to check his social media pages (he wanted to show the way he cuts meats so his customers are only getting the best parts, not making them pay more per ounce), and he has a charming personality to boot. I'll definitely be coming back here!

I just wish they weren't so darn expensive. I don't begrudge anyone a living, but yesterday I purchased three veal shanks to make osso buco for three. It was delicious, but $90...really? 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.
