We ordered a Thanksgiving Dinner for 2 to pick up today (the day before Thanksgiving). We walked in and the majority of the staff was losing their minds so I knew something was wrong. Turned out that their distributor shorted them Thanksgiving meals and did not have one for us. At this point my girlfriend and I are freaking out but thinking about solutions.
They told us we could get anything in the case that amounted to the cost of the dinner as well as any sides in the cooler. The butcher ended up giving us a beautiful turkey breast and brined it as well. We also got mashed potatoes, gravy, stuffing, and cranberry sauce, as well as some asparagus.
To our happy surprise, the manager included 2 PRIME ribeyes as an apology and to make it right. It was a bummer of a situation but Primal stepped up and made it right. Thank you so much! We will definitely be returning in the future. Happy Thanksgiving!
The ONLY place to get a brisket all year round. Staff is very friendly too. Not only do they have great meats, but they also have local baked items, that the local chains or FM don't even carry. Easy access off the highway and a short drive from any nearby town. I just saw some guy named Gillian leave a one star review. IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM, MANUP AND WRITE WHAT YOU DON'T LIKE. Keyboard warrior!
Great stop for cuts, subs and more. BIG shoutout for catering my work BBQ event. Elliott aka Bill did a great job delivering and preparing our order. Full spread of delicious foods with sides. Will definitely cater from Primal again!
First time here, my son frequents this butcher. He told me that the beef was great and after my visit I totally agree. It was a special occasion (my favorite family member was in town) and we both wanted steak. The butcher behind the counter was gregarious and charming. Love the mustache! I chose 2 Porterhouse Tbones.
Not gonna lie and many would have had sticker shock but it was hands down one of the best I have ever had. So if you have a really special occasion or got it like that I highly recommend! 🧡
My first time in, I had no idea what I was in for. I expected a simple butcher shop with a few extras. Instead I was greeted with an extensive array of... Everything! Meats and spices and basically a full deli and sandwich shop. I got the steak and cheese sandwich which was the most popular according to the guy with the mustache. It was delicious! I look forward to going back soon to pick up meat dairy eggs maybe some seasonings and sauces. This little gem is tucked away in Stuyvesant plaza. You need to check it out.
