I’ve been wanting to try their sandwiches and boy, oh boy, it was DELICIOUS! On Fridays, their special is the pastrami sandwich, and it was to die for, so, so, good! By far, the very best pastrami sandwich I’ve ever eaten. And, I eat their breakfast burritos often and they are very tasty! Highly recommend The Meat up!

Found this place by total accident - was looking for some food with a couple boys and saw they had sandwiches and oh boy, as a man who appreciates a good steak, this place was a candy shop.Got a personal tour from Augustine who broke down ALL the meat, the dry aged, the Wagyu steaks from Japan and Australia, the feed… all the above.Promised I’d be back and this past weekend I purchased the Wagyu Rib Eyes, and the high grade Japanese Wagyu fillets…Yeah, imagine 4 men sitting around a table with a toothpick picking off bite sized steak bites for 20 minutes with their eyes rolling to the back of their heads, smiles on their faces while rubbing their bellies and you get the picture.10/5 recommend.

One of the most dry Tri Tip sandwiches I've ever had in Fresno/Clovis. This could be due to someone new who does not know how to properly cook a Tri-Tip so I'm giving 3 stars. As for their cuts, they are good quality but the price per pound is a little off putting considering there are other competetors in town that offer the same quality cuts for less.

I went into the Meat Up for my first time, not knowing the sandwiches they served had a set day for each. The bald-headed man working behind the counter was unable to respectfully explain this to me. I asked for a tritip sandwich just to get the rude reply "You can get a philly cheesesteak." with no further explanation. I tried to explain I was lactose intolerant and the guy just simple laughed in my face and said "Grow up." The man went on to critique my girlfriend who could not figure out how to swipe the gift card on their reader by saying "Your generation isn't good at stuff like this." Which I found to be very disrespectful and rude. All in all, if you want to get a specific sandwich for lunch (or a place with good customer service), I would not recommend the Meat Up. ps: I only tried this place after receiving a gift card for my birthday, it's saddening to see how entitled people can ruin someone's first experience at a restaurant with their arrogant superiority.

My new place to purchase quality meat. Their customer service is above and beyond anything I've experienced in any other store. They have a great selection of high quality meat. I purchase steaks here for grilling and the product is better than I can purchase at any of the meat stores that I've been to.

I'd give this place an extra star if I could! Great product selection and awesome service. We regularly drive across town for the Friday pastrami sandwiches and our kids love the pre-cooked ribs.

Not sure how to categorize this unique business ... Boutique Butchershop? ... Craft Meatcutter? ... Artisan Abattoir? Their primary commodity is prime meat, all kinds of cuts from chops to roasts to sausages to steaks & everything top-of-the-line, no cheap cuts. The staff are friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and willing to offer cooking suggestions and alternatives. They also do a daily in-store pop-up (as opposed to a food truck) takeout sandwich biz (a single table sits outside the entry). The cheesesteak (every Thursday) is beefy, savory, tender, juicy & very meaty - enough to share. Not quite up to Philly standards (missing the spiciness of hot & sweet peppers and the gooeyness of the East Coast cheese), but so far the best in Fresno.

I enjoyed every bite! I can t wait to try the other items on the menu! I'll be back soon for sure!

Dropped in here a few days before Christmas to get our annual roast. It was a little busy but staff were rotating in and out to help all of the guests. They have a couple of fridges you can browse and they also had displays showing some popular seasonal options and prices. We chatted with one of the staff and told him what we usually cook, he consulted with one of the butchers and they quickly got to work on preparing a 4lbs prime rib roast for us. We also picked up some chicken apple sausage and their house seasoning rub. The meat came shrink-wrapped and we prepped and cooked it on the day -- really high quality meat, the marbling was perfect. It was beautiful and delicious. Only small criticism was from my husband -- he wasn't as happy with the seasoning because it's quite finely milled and he thought the outer crust got too hard and charcoaled, rather than the texture we've gotten before with rougher seasoning like Papi's. Great quality, great service. It's great to know we have a quality butcher in town. We'll trust them with our future needs!
