You know how there are certain foods and smells that just make you start salivating immediately?…read more Well, the thought of the sandwiches at Meat House do that to me. The first time I went, I had their Supreme BLT. The name sounds a bit lofty and is perhaps a bit pedestrian to some, but I have to say, it's far and above the best version I've ever had. Thick warm bacon, cool lettuce and tomatoes, avocado, and a delicious garlicky aioli. I ate it in my car and must have been a real sight to see, because I practically made love to that thing. It was that good. The second time I went, I opted for their Cuban. Again, the best version of that sandwich I've ever had. This thing was like an orgasm on bread. I don't even know where to start, but suffice it to say that all the ingredients were exploding like a symphony of savory wonder. Thank goodness no one filmed me eating it, that would definitely have been embarrassing. On top of the incredible sandwich menu at Meat House, they also offer a pretty impressive assortment of groceries, a custom salad bar, fantastic butcher counter with steaks and chops galore, beer and wine, etc. Sort of feels like a specialty market on steroids. I highly recommend a visit, particularly for one of their epic sandwiches!

This is a nice one-stop shop filled with a huge variety of items. We were able to score alcoholic ciders, seasonings for unreasonably cheap prices, and more.

At incredible prices, this shop is certainly one to visit for pantry staples alone.

The guy at the counter refused to look at us or answer any questions. ( we were the only one in the shop) I asked him a question and he said with a nasty attitude that it wasn't for us. He was rude and disrespectful and showed his contempt for us for just being in the store. The meat selection wasn't great. I don't know if it was because we are a black couple . ( this is an Asian place) I felt that I was in the Jim Crow south. Do not give them your money!!!!

Their selection is impressive--stuffed pork with broccoli and cheese or apples is a personal favorite, but honestly, we've tried almost everything! From succulent pulled pork to their big buffalo chicken salad, each bite is packed with flavor. Beyond the incredible variety, we also love the convenience of their bulk meat packages--they make stocking up our freezers easy and ensure we always have top-notch meats on hand. If you're looking for fresh, flavorful, and expertly crafted meats, Prime Time is the place to go. Supporting a family-run business that takes pride in its products makes every meal taste even better. Highly recommend!

We were reuniting with a friend we hadn't seen in nearly a decade and we couldn't have picked a better spot to catch up.

We threw in a chopped salad and finished it off with their caramel dessert that somewhat resembled a tiramisu. Upon lifting the cylinder sleeve the delicious and light caramel sauce pours over the cake with crunch chocolate nibs sprinkled on top. Looking forward to trying their dinner menu when we visit again.
