Food is Spectacular!!! I can't wait to go back. BLT...perfect. Northside Johnny was amazing. My 1 complaint was about the BBQ baked beans. I asked for a side, and was told NO. You have to buy a bbq combo platter to be allowed to buy beans.......weird, right? How difficult is it to serve a side and charge me. Oh well, we are going back anyway. Awesome find and worth a try if you have a little patience.

The shop is much smaller than I imagined from their Instagram posts. 15 tables at most…read more The food was good quality to be sure, but sadly not what I hoped it would be. I ordered their smash burger. It was good but not impressive. We had asked for sauce on the side, but I think they interpreted that as additional sauce on the side. The burger had sauce on it as well. The flavors were dominated by the sauce. Being a butcher shop I was hoping for a really good burger. I'd rate it average. We went a long way to visit and sadly while the staff is super friendly and helpful, what my sister and I ordered wasn't something we'd make the drive for to get again. Maybe we choose the wrong things. The parking for us was easy. The staff very friendly and helpful. The pizza on the bar looked dried out or outright burned so we stayed away from that. We were looking forward to something from their hot bar, but sadly it wasn't open on Sunday. We felt it was expensive for what we received and like I said earlier we had higher hopes. If you're in the area it's a good spot to stop, but we wouldn't make the trip to there specifically... It was good...not great. We had higher hopes.

We also got a pound and a half of pulled BBQ pork...very good--sweet & smoky, as well as some cilantro lime pasta salad. Everything was perfect! The counter personnel were friendly, helpful and funny. The counter was clean, neat and easy to shop, even the dried spices. 100% will return in the near future. This place is well worth the hop, skip and a jump into SE Wisconsin from Illinois. Plus the gas was waaaay cheaper there at the adjoining BP. Go and be a cheesehead for the day!

I'm always on the lookout for spots that feel authentic and Prime Beef in Mundelein absolutely…read moredelivers that old-school butcher shop experience you don't come across often anymore. We stopped in today just to check it out, and it turned into one of those unexpectedly great local experiences. It's always a pleasure meeting other Greeks, and Petros, the owner, was incredibly welcoming; honestly felt more like catching up with family. The atmosphere is warm and unpretentious, and the service is genuinely personal. Their meat is of the highest quality I've had since Greece. If you happen to stop in on the weekend, definitely check out their hot specials. Overall, Prime Beef is one of those neighborhood gems that reminds you why local butcher shops still matter. High-quality product, great people, and a welcoming, community feel that's hard to find.

Beware! No Good! Very Sloppy! I brought 7 deer here over the past 2 years. I've been hunting for…read more20+ years and this is by far the worst deer processor that I've ever used. I asked for all the hides be saved and I never got any back. I requested roasts be cut and never received any. The packaging was all over the board. Weights were not indicated on the packages and varied from 7 oz to 2 lbs 15 oz. when I weighed them myself at home. The meat was also not frozen; several packages were bloody and smelled foul...I had to throw away many pounds. I spend a lot of time and money hunting each year, the last thing I want is for a butcher to ruin the meat. I will not be bringing any more deer to this processor. Obvious language barrier with owner. And according to my brother in law...his sausage isn't anything to write home about either.

Brought my deer here because I saw the website which showed smoked sausage and salami available…read more When i arrived he doesn't do those things, said the "other guy used to do that." I eventually decided on just having him grind 30 lbs of the meat and give me 50 lbs of meat to bring to someone else so i can have them make what i want. Going to give me the roasts, loins, and backstraps. 180 bucks for processing and then i have to pay more to have someone make me sausage. (-25 for cape taking the head for a mount) I will update as soon as i get the rest back in three weeks or so. Looks like the business is under new ownership and the website misrepresents the actual business.

Lomeli Butcher shop is a great location that has everything needed to make a perfect Latino meal. Lomeli has a very good carneceria with reasonable prices and any type of meat/seafood you're looking for. In addition to the carneceria their produce is very fresh and carry the usual items to compliment any meal. Finally, their hot case of fresh dishes to include birria con Chivo and Beef, tacos, taquitos and carnitas are all freshly made and delicious. They also have freshly made salsas for any occasion as well as side dishes like beans and rice. Lomeli also has a nice grocery store for anything lease you need. Staff was very friendly and speak Spanish and English to help any customer with questions. Menudo was off the charts, some of the best I had, perfectly seasoned and very tender. We picked up extra for the next day. Pomelo's Butcher shop is an awesome place for anyone looking to make a delicious meal. I also highly recommend you try this spot!!

Been meaning to try this place out and was not disappointed…read more It's small inside, with larger (maybe communal?) tables, you order from the counter and they bring out the food. We ordered an Italian sandwich and Philly cheesesteak (tuesdays only), with fries and drinks. This was the best Italian sub sandwich I've had in the area. The meats were generous and it tasted so fresh. The cheesesteak was also fresh and delicious, the taste of the steak being a huge standout. Both sandwiches had amazing bread, and the fries were delicious. The price was a little steep at almost $50 for two sandwiches, one bag of chips, one soda, and an order of fries. But for me, the quality was worth the price for a once in a while treat. Our only complaint was the ketchup came in packets, and they either were old or not under proper temp control. The texture was off, and the packets were inflated... making it seem like they went bad. We will be coming back for sure.

Great service and all the food was absolutely amazing…read more Bacon turkey club, Ruben, ribeye steak sandwich and tomato basil soup.
