    The italian was amazing! Lots of toppings and substance to the sandwich for a great price. The regular turkey was unfortunately not that great. It was the same price as the italian and did not have much flavor. It tasted almost like goat cheese and turkey, I ended up throwing away the other half of my sandwich. I wish it was more of a traditional turkey sandwich with lettuce, tomato, etc! Excited to try a different sandwich next time.

    This place is expensive. But it's great. If you want the best beef, lamb, pork, or chicken, this is the place. It's not the place for bargains. The purveyors are pleasant, professional, and knowledgeable. People that come here are willing to pay for high quality. They have an amazing selection of seasonings, marinated meat and poultry, and cheese. It's an organized store. It's not hard to find things. It's a pretty modern feel. Its appearance is fine. But, the reason you come here is for the best. It's a 30-40 minute drive for me. I only come when I want a great cut or beef, lamb, kurobata pork, or jidori chicken.

    Really good bone in pork chops and other piggy cuts.

    Another great butcher shop in my arsenal to choose from in Orange County. My wife and I went here last Sunday on a mission down the 17th Street corridor to stock up protein provisions for the next two weeks. Santa Monica Seafoods was the first stop, and this place the second stop. This is my second visit here in 4 weeks, and I must say they have most everything one needs to satisfy your animal protein needs. We purchased a couple of bone in pork chops. They were very good quality, a little over 1 inch thick. I've bought some previously from them and had them cut them at 1 and a quarter inch thick and they grilled beautifully. This location has more than just various meats. They have not easy to find items like beef tallow, a great fromage display, various seasonings, hard to find proteins like rabbit, duck, oxtail, and other goodies that you do not find at a regular grocery store. I almost forgot, they also make craft sandwiches to take out. We will back in another 2 weeks.

    We didn't realize how good the sandwiches are here. We shared the brisket sandwich with coleslaw on the sandwich and all the fixings. So good! It's on chibatta bread. They have so many sandwiches to choose and plenty of meats to bring home and make sandwiches at home. Chips and everything that a deli should have. Very quick service too!

    My boyfriend and I came here to grab some steaks for dinner and saw they had a sandwich counter. We got intrigued and wanted to try it out. The employees at the meat counter were so attentive and friendly! We were asked if we needed help like 5 times lol. Parking is easy in a shared plaza. We got the #1 turkey sandwich ($13.99) on white bread to share, and it was surprisingly delicious for how simple it was. The white bread was not white sandwich bread but a baguette instead. Bread was too light toasted, not much of a crunch and more of a chew. The mayo really threw me off; I thought they added tuna salad. The white lean turkey and mayo had me thinking it was a tuna salad sandwich! Once I got over that, the sandwich was pretty good. The pepper jam added a nice sweet and tangy flavor to the plain sandwich. The cheese got a little lost, probably there wasn't enough of it. My boyfriend enjoyed the sandwich much more than me. Overall, the sandwich was a great snack/lunch. It was very interesting and unique thanks to the jam. We would come back to try to other sandwiches.

    Ask the Community - The Butchery Quality Meats

    When do you have marinated potatoes?

    Hi Mimi, we stopped marinating them. We use olive oil and camp mix, so we have everything there at the shop if you like that preparation. Right now we have the organic yellow potatoes

    Do you offer any Bison meat selections? I found you guys from a Butcher class search, do you offer butchery classes?

    We do carry Bison. The cuts can vary based on availability but we typically have it fresh in stock. We do not have any butchery classes.

    Do you guys sell green tripe? I feed my dog raw and was just wondering if you guys sell it.

    I haven’t been able to find green tripe. I can get you tripe in a 10lb case if you’d like?

    Does a prime rib order need to be called in, in advance or can I just walk in and ask for one?

    You can walk in if you’d like

    Are any of your marinated meats gluten free?

    Yes, come on in and we can show you which marinades are gluten free.

    Do you make meat and cheese platters? If so how small?

    Yes we do, any size you need. Yes lease call ahead and preorder

    Do you guys carry guanciale?

    Yes, we typically have guanciale in our deli. Call ahead if driving far to be safe.

    Do you also cook the steaks as an option?

    Sorry, we leave the cooking to you ... ;)

    Most businesses are offering discounts in consideration of this pandemic. Just inquiring if this establishment is offering anything? Family meal packs etc?

    If you go to our website and click on signature boxes you will see three discounted boxes including what we call a family box.

    On website I see source for the chicken is "Rodgers Poultry". This looks like a processing facility. Where do they get their meat from? No mention on their website.

    For our Marinated Chicken we have a custom antibiotic free spec with Wayne Farms. For non marinated (and we can also marinate this for you, just call your order in) we have Jidori Chicken (organic option) out of San Bernardino County or PastureBird… Read more

    Do you accept orders for fresh Thanksgiving turkey?

    We sure do, come on in and pre-order a fresh bird in the size range you need

    Is the meat from your butcher non-gmo?

    I'm not sure, but the quality it's outstanding !!

    How about bones, marrow bones, do they sell or able to give them away?

    I recall it being sold in the frozen section. I haven't been in awhile so might have changed. I suggest calling to double check.

    Do they carry organ meat? Kidney, spleen, heart etc for pork & beef?

    I personally haven't seen it but I wouldn't see why they wouldn't be able to get it. Maybe best to call them to see if they can get it?

    Do you guys keep organic grass fed meats in stock? Particularly filet?

    Their website states that they stock grass fed beef

The staff was kind and helpful and there appeared to be a lot of locals enjoying their meals out in their outdoor seating area. While the market had a bunch of fun fermented offerings, the food that I ordered from their cafe was not exactly what I expected. I ordered the chili and spicy kraut grilled cheese combo. The portions were on the smaller side but given it was lunch I didn't really mind. I was more let down by the lack of flavor in their grilled cheese, the spicy kraut was neither spicy and just didn't really add much aside from texture. The chili on the other hand was delicious so that partially redeemed the meal for me. My boyfriend got their bone broth which was very very light and needed additional seasoning though. While I love what they're trying to build here, I'm not sure if I'd go back.

We've…read moreseen Charcutereats' previous work and decided to pursue them due to what we thought was quality and presentation. What we got in comparison to that and the pictures displayed on their instagram account is nothing short of a bootleg version. See photos for reference even though the owner will deny and leave a comment generated by ChatGPT. 1. Quality: The two main orders were absolutely sub par and cheap. The bagel spread does not feed up to 12 as advertised and feeds more so around 5 people. We got 6 very dry bagels cut in half, one large cut tomato, maybe half an onion, maybe a quarter of a lemon and spread for maybe one and a half bagels? The ingredients were spread so flat to create an illusion that the serving plate was full. The smoked salmon that we paid extra for was a mere few slices for 3-5 individuals versus the photos that show a decent amount for "up to 12pp." The caprese pasta salad had absolutely no flavor, and was brown from the balsamic vinegar yet gave no flavor and was a mere cold pasta with bits of basel.  2. Expectation: As shown on their social media page and website, the orders come on wooden boards and wooden bowls with some decorative items. What we got instead was a hasty delivery of a flimsy and broken plastic bowl for the pasta -- that had to be thrown out upon putting it out --and a flimsy wooden plate for the lightest bagel spread we've seen that was surely not worth more than $50. 3. Communication: Upon inputting the order and the delivery day, there was no communication. We had to reach out via email and confirm the day before and was met with a different drop off/set up time than initially agreed upon when the order was inputted. We 11:45am since the party was at 12pm, and instead got forced into settling for a 10:30am slot after some back and forth. This is unprofessional for any business that is selling a service. Save yourself the hassle and money and go to Costco and get yourself what you need, because the business is apparently falling apart.

No matter what you order this place is just phenomenal and everything is great about it. I used to come here over five years ago when I lived in Newport and now that I moved back I will definitely be coming here a lot more often. I walked in today and met the owner Sean. Extremely cool guy and clearly someone who really understands great food. We started talking and he told me the reason he even bought the place was because the first time he ever came here he ordered the roast beef and was so impressed he ended up buying the restaurant. After hearing that I had to try it! The roast beef sandwich comes with lettuce, onion, tomato, mustard and mayo with your choice of cheese and bread. The meat is piled high and is super tender and moist, and everything tastes fresh. Simple and done right and that's exactly why it works. Next was the Reuben. Corned beef with melted Swiss, sauerkraut and Russian dressing on toasted marble rye. This one is loaded and perfectly balanced. Warm, melty and full of flavor with the bread toasted just enough to hold it together. Honestly one of the best Reubens I've had. Then there's the hot German potato salad. Warm potatoes with a vinegar bite that gives it a really distinct flavor and it was amazing alongside the sandwiches. I love when owners are passionate about their places. Sean is a great guy and I can't wait to come back and try something different or just go for the Reuben again because it really was that good!
