They are amazing through and through. Spoke with Jules on the phone and Patty was our amazing carver. So friendly, so reasonable, SO delicious. Our friends and family couldn’t stop talking about it.

The best and cleanest meat people anywhere! The staff is very friendly! Great place! Absolutely one of the best companies that I've worked for positive people behind the scenes not just with their customers! Even though it was only a week and a half I see how they far behind the scenes and I don't currently work there and these are some of the best people and I'm so glad that I know them a little better!

Hight quality meats and cheese. It feels great to go to local shops like this place vs. WholeFoods. Staff here are very friendly and helpful.

I won't share specific trade secrets- But having worked in the restaurant industry I can confirm many fine dining establishments in the city and beyond rely on Espositos.

As a retail consumer you won't find a better butcher anywhere around with higher quality. I'm so impressed with the selection as well as the friendly and personal customer service this establishment offers.

My experience has been by showing up here regularly there is always some kind of special deal that beats the gosh darn local grocery store. At Espo's they would rather sell the freshest product on the market at a deep discount when their inventory is high, when others sell at a much higher price hanging on to inventory a longer. Usually others in the business of selling flesh throw so much away.

Why waste great food? I've gotten deals with Esposito's where they practically give away the fresh carcass of whatever animal. Maybe hunters get their meat a little cheaper- and god bless them for it. Much like Esposito's hunter's will share with the people they know. Esposito is much better butcher though.

Beef, Pork, Chicken, Seafood- shop here for a specialized cut that you really want. Keep an open mind and pay attention to the specials. Variety is the spice of life as the old cliche goes.

Always a great experience even under pandemic conditions. Meat is fresh, great cuts and always delicious. Staff is very helpful. We appreciate the precautions taking by the staff & the outside line is a great idea even if some feel they should be entitled to skip to the front.
The only thing Id say is if their online ordering was a clearer process and included all items then it would be easier for pickup.

This place is such a South Philly Classic!
I take my ten year old son there, just like my Dad took me.
The staff is so helpful, and price/quality is hard to beat. It's worth a visit.

This place is great. I hope that they never go out of business. It is a Philly landmark. The staff are great people friendly. And the Family treats you like family. The best quality meats fresh every single day. I've been going to them for the last 12 years and I'm not stopping. 2 thumbs up to them

The best place in the Philadelphia Tri-State area!
So Amazing! Worth the drive every time!

This is THEE place to go for meats, poultry, and even cheeses. This was my first visit and I can't wait to return for some steaks

If you care about your health and care about meat that actually tastes like meat, you're in good place. It's most likely the best in the state, I do not want to be arrogant or you'd say best in the tri-state.
You can't be disappointed buying anything there.

I went in here trying to get a cut of beef to try to reverse sear for the first time. I went in and started talking with the butcher, Dominic, and he walked me through it and convinced me I could do it on a tomahawk. So I got it and tried it and it came out awesome. Best piece of beef I ever tasted. The people there are nice and helpful and the prices are great.

By far the best in the city, let alone the tri state area. Best prices, top quality, and super knowledgeable people. I cannot say enough good things about this business. They have been helping me for a long time and would never go anywhere else.

Best meat selection and prices in the City. I've been going there for 30+ years and there's no other service and care that comes close!

The service was quick and personable. I purchased the meats I wanted. It was fresh and reasonably priced. In and out approximately 15 minutes.

Zero stars if i could. You expect when you pay more and go somewhere specialty that you're going to receive good service. Went there today. Super disorganized. Waited my turn, watched 6 people come out, no one calling others in, when asked was told by 2 employees in the rudest manner, walked out. Not stepping foot in here ever again. Overpriced and beyond disrespectful.

Came out on Sunday November 1st looking for nice quality oxtails, was greeted by a professional butcher that took the time to show me a few options of oxtail in the back. He trimmed them down perfectly. I also brought some beautiful beef ribs, chicken wings and a roast. All were amazing quality and that’s what matters to me. Thank You for giving me excellent service on my first visit I will be a return customer!
