It’s worth 4 stars for the bacon alone.
I had been meaning to stop by for some time and finally cleared all the meat out of my tiny freezer. When I got there at 8 on a Saturday with my cooler, I was the only customer. The butcher and assistant were very helpful, and my bacon, chops, steak and roast were all cut to order. I also got some hamburger. Everything was sealed. Even knowing grass fed beef cooks quicker, I still over did my steak. 🙁
Unless you have incredible self-control, this place is like Costco when it comes to impulse buying and $100 or more is spent before you know it. Because they currently only get one steer a week, many of the popular beef cuts have a waiting list.
It was definitely worth the trip Downtown, and I will be back again.

Yelp is a social networking and local search engine that provides the reviews of places and things that matter to you. Simply log in, pick a place and queue up your inner critic. You can write a beaming review of your favorite gelato spot, or a scathing portrayal of that rental car facility you had to use after that curb came out of nowhere. Yelp’s reviews are at once honest, uncensored, wildly hilarious and true. Heck, the site must be doing something right — it had 26 million viewers just last month!
