“I tried their packaged cooked chicken quarter in sauce @ Dollar Tree & was amazed how tender & tasty it was after cooking it in the frying pan per instructions. 1 package made a whole delicious meal with some rice & a burger roll tossed in the mix & I plan on getting more of it in the future.”
“A wonderful place, you will find everything you need, and wonderful employees who will greet you with a smile and bid you farewell with the same, God willing, and I will always be a customer, with reasonable prices.”
“We love the smoked bacon, Waygu burgers, and sausage Pattie's. The filet mignon is also one of our favorites. They will deliver next day to your house at no cost. Try to Mafia Pork barbecue sause - it's fantastic. Go to their retail store for a great experience and selection of food.”

So very blessed to know her. Thank you Sarah for everything you have done for me and my family. You are the real deal. #Respect”
“Cool place. They serve cold and hot food for lunch. Have a deli and cut meats. There is a frozen section also. The prices are kind of steep, but it is Hinsdale. Hopefully the stuff I got will be good. I'm sure I'd go back here again.”
“I ordered a whole white fish for stuffing and asked that the guys remove the bones. And this was done to perfection - nary a bone in the finished baked fish that was just so fresh and delicious. While in to pick up the pre-ordered fish, I spied crab cakes in the display. I rather offended the guys by asking if they were good. My company are a fussy lot but everthing I've had from Carnivore has been super, so I took three 1/4 pound cakes. And they were literally AMAZING. Scant filler, all crab, subtley seasoned. With just a little browning in olive oil and warming through at 350F for 15 minutes, served on mixed greens, this was a perfect starter for the meal. Thank you, Carnivore, for delivering - again!”
“I adore this store for its flash frozen, portioned meets and seafood. The staff is helpful and attentive and the store offers quite a staggering selection of ordinart and unusual meats, fish, deserts, seafood, appetizers, etc. Very good prices for the quality, and they alsi deliver!”
“First visit. Checked out prepared foods. Bought a few meats and potatoes. Have not tried yet. Friendly and quiet environment. Reminds us of Florida shopping centers.”
“I saw the sign for the market and thought let me see what it is all about. I love small local stores. The store is a lot bigger inside then I thought it would be. The store offers a deli, butcher/meat counter, and the general store items. The line was very long at the time I went in so I didn't buy anything but I did note that the prices are somewhat higher than I expected. I think as far a small local market it is nice as an option especially for deli and meats. Overall, I will definitely go back when I have more time to wait in line or at a time it isn't so busy. I think I would like to try the meat and deli items for my next BBQ.”
“The best butcher shop in Chicago by a large margin, unbelievable prices, I have done doubletakes before at how great the deals are. Good quality and great staff!”
“This place is amazing! It's mainly Mexican style food. They have a hot food bar. They put it out "Fresh Everyday". If they fill up the food bar at 10am- by 1:30pm. Its only scrapes left because the food on is OMG, good food, very fair portions, and the price is right! Looking forward to returning for a few items.”
“Small place but very very pleasant atmosphere for customers, the staff is very respectful and always in a good manner from the moment you enter until you leave.100% recommended.”

“Hidden Gem!!! I make Rouladen for Christmas every year. Finding a butcher to cut the meat I need every year is difficult, and chain grocery stores don't usually have the cut of meat I need, or they won't cut it. My moms recipe calls for sirloin tip roast in 1/4 thick strips. I called Blue Ribbon Meat Market, talked to the butcher, and described what I needed. He said he had the meat, and could cut it. When I got there he showed me a couple roasts he thought were good for what I needed, and let me pick the one I wanted. He trimmed the fat and showed me the 1st cut to be sure it was what I wanted. The roast is perfect. Since the recipe calls for bacon, I got enough + some for my recipe too. The customer service is above and beyond, the shop is very clean (something I look for in a butcher shop), and the staff is wonderful, and they refer to you by name, which makes you feel like they've known you for years. The customers who shop there are so nice and welcoming. My granddaughter made a few friends there. They have holiday meal kits if anyone needs something. The meat selection is really good and affordable. I was eyeballing some of the steaks before leaving, and I definitely will be back. I highly recommend this hidden gem.”
“I came in for a leg of lamb for Easter.Everyone was so pleasant and helpful. The price was the best by far. I saw they also had lamb shoulder so I went with that. It was frozen and when I defrosted it overnight in my fridge and it thawed out, it looked great and had no smell to it - so it was fresh. We had the lamb as part of our dinner tonight and everyone loved it.I can understand what some have mentioned about the smell however, that's been the case for any butcher shop I've been to... unfortunately it seems to be in the air.The produce looked okay, not the greatest but I came in for something else.While checking out with my purchases, the staff were curteous and kind. Overall my experience was great.”
“The best Irish corned beef in Chicago! Quality meats. Great value for catering big parties. My wife loves their Irish soda bread. Family-owned business, very friendly and welcoming. 5 stars.”

I recommend supporting your local grocery stores and there foods like the cooked carnitas here. Very reasonble on price per pound we spent about 16 bucks for 2.lbs. we will be back because the carnitas here were well seasoned and cooked.”

6700 16th St, Berwyn“This spot is def a hidden gem. Not surprised that it was not found on yelp. When you walk in through the front it is a store front, but the real magic happens in the back. Everything from menudo, to home made tamales, to tacos can be ordered in the back. If you enjoy real home cooked Mexican food this is the place for you. I started off with a simple but delicious bean taco. It sounds easy but there's an art to it and when I tried to ask how they made the beans the answer was simple "secret recipe." Then I moved to the main dish, menudo. What a joy that was, simmering and quite delicious and then I finished the meal with homemade tamales. Guys if you're looking for authentic Mexican food this is the spot for you. Ask for Lola when you walk in. Like I said think of this spot as a speak easy of food, hidden gem is in the back. You can also ask Lola about catering.”
“It's a distributor for local restaurants that also will sell to the public I was curious about this place and stopped in not too much signage for the entrance but went in through the parking lot and walked through to an office area where a very friendly person was sitting. After asking about the place it seems you can get a variety of beef pork and chicken. I was there for some Italian sausage and got a 5 pounds of it which was just made and had good flavors. So when the time comes for a bigger order I'll share my findings”

Their service was AMAZING, the food was SUPER GOOD and we decided to place an catering order for our sorority’s event for June 15! Highly recommend HBH in Orland Park! Thanks for making our impromptu lunch gathering fun and appetizing! ?”
