Better than any local chain bbq eateries around! I came for the meat. At the table setting. The meat of it all. Served quite alone center stage on a plate, I sliced it thin and cut into three pieces. No rush. Hormone free, filet Mignon medium well, buttered, encrusted steak melting into palatable dance upon my tongue, I not quick to chew and swallow but to linger on slowly and appreciate every chew I made...and teamed together on another plate, stage right, there's baked potato garnished with butter, sour cream and chives, and the sweet crispy corn on the cob squirting at every typing of my teeth across the husk. Ding! Repeat. It went on forever. I did not rush fine things on the plate. Life is short. Brunk. Do not argue. Go there! It is worth every green dollar. Thank you. read more

Discovered Brunk's Butchery on Instagram and finally had the chance to visit due to my love for steaks. Arriving a bit late, I found the place closed, but to my surprise, the owner came out and warmly invited me in, assuring it wasn't an imposition. I ended up purchasing three thick slices of prime ribeye, and they were nothing short of amazing - perfect marbling and incredibly flavorful. Excited to return and explore their offerings further, especially looking forward to trying their dry-aged ribeye! read more

It started with a dream. The Brunk family had a great one! And happily, Covid did not break the Brunks. (Giggle when you read that!) And for the rest if us, we are the lucky beneficiaries because of their persistence. We have nothing like this nearby. They specialize in premium meats, Prime and Choice grade, grass fed, free range, plus imported beautiful charcuterie meats, specialty cheeses. All intended for the ultimate dining experience. And here they are, opening up in our area. Consider yourself lucky. This is a must see butchery. Treat yourself, and make sure you take the time to get to know the owners. Friendly service, great quality offerings. read more

Came through at the recommendation of a friend that frequents the Norco location, and it was great! Even though it's a little out of sight tucked away by the Panera, Brunk's shines through the noise with a delicious variety of freshly-made BBQ dishes, a deli where you can splurge on things like tomahawk steak, and something of a general store with breads, butters, raw honey, spice mixes and more from other local and/or small operations. The staff was welcoming and friendly with recommendations and info and service was quick. Will definitely be coming here a couple times a week. Finally some real barbecue near home! read more

This is an extremely small butcher shop (in size) compared to the other ones I've been too. But they do carry a lot of things jam packed in their displays and shelves. They only have about 3 large cooler displays. Meats are held everywhere. Slightly convoluted and messy. Some of their wagyu rib eye though is cheaper than their competitors. For example their A-5 ribeye is $130 per lb compared to $150. But their Australian wagyu coat more than the other butcher shop. So I would say don't be afraid to call around and compare prices. Customer service here is a lot better than the one in La Verne. She was extremely friendly. Very informative. Conversational. Really helpful. So instead of driving from here to La Verne, I just decided to bite the $20 per lb difference and buy the Australian wagyu from her. Lot of foot traffic thru here. They even have a great selection of cheeses, breads, other complimentary items great for a BBQ. I ended up getting a lb each of their A-5 (japanese) wagyu, Australian wagyu and American (SNF) wagyu. I wanted them to be around a quarter inch cut since I was putting it on the cast iron as suppose to the grill. Majority came out carpaccio thin though, so you really couldn't feel the tenderness, so that was quite a disappointment. Some of the cuts reminded me of prosciutto because it was so thin. It was so thin that when I cooked it, it curled up and got wrinkly due to the lack of girth and thickness to hold it firmly flat. Definite miss. Also their A-5 wagyu contained so much excessive fat, that was not part of the marbling, which was such a waste. But quality though was pretty good. If your in the area looking to splurge on some good quality wagyu, I would recommend giving them a try here at Brunks. read more

I called the store yesterday to ask a few questions about in-store availability. The owner, Nicole was very helpful and kind. I decided to go in later that afternoon and picked up a few ribeye steaks. Our family absolutely loved the meat! We will be back for future orders. read more

Been wanting to go to Brunks to see what meats they carry. All I can say is "wow!" They carry such a perfect selection of great cuts of meats, tbh it was pretty impressive. To top it off, the owner Nicole took time out of her day to talk meat and I learned so much from our conversation. I'm very happy I was able to finally come in. She just got a customer for life! read more

Stopped by Brunk's before our trip to Big Bear Lake for some grill meats. We walked out with a pack of English Bangers and an NY steak. We'll likely be back on our next road trip or cookout because they sell family packs which include a selection of grill meats, bread, and sides. They have a surprising amount of steak rubs, BBQ sauces, and condiments too! Also, they're dog-friendly! read more

For the best meat in town! I went in to get my husband a special cut of meat for his birthday. He loved the meat .

If you love high end quality meats such as wagyu and dry aged steaks, you need to stop by Brunk's butchery. I stopped by their brand new second location in Chino Hills last week and was impressed! They sell all natural, grass fed meats, artisan cheeses, Boar's Head deli meats, charcuterie boards, and hot food. They also sell specialty grocery items like infused oils, sauces, artisanal pastas, sparkling sodas, and seasonings. They have everything you need to make a great meal. I had their Brunk's burger, buffalo chicken sandwich & turkey sandwich. They were all so tasty. The burger had bacon jam and it gave the burger a great flavor. I really loved the smokiness & spiciness of the buffalo chicken sandwich. It had a good chipotle flavor and the onions went well in the sandwich. I also got to try one of their charcuterie boards and the owner, Nicole really puts a lot of work into making them. It had a variety of artisan cheeses and meats and tasted delicious. They also sell other sandwiches and a loaded brisket potato that looks amazing. I believe they plan to sell more items once they have their grand opening. This location is much bigger & spacious than their Norco location since they have a dining area. Stop by & support this awesome family business. The staff is friendly, the food is delicious, and they have the best meats in town! read more

Amazing selection of meats and cheeses. Staff is knowledgeable and super friendly. Orders can be placed for seafood and other unique meats like venison. Ask them about their river packs! They set you up with individually wrapped steaks, hamburgers or hotdogs and include buns as well. We've always been impressed with the quality and flavor of whatever we've picked up from Brunks. read more

This place is so good. I ordered a cheeseburger and it was delicious. When you order the baked potato it comes with all the fixings. You must come eat here and support this business. They also have meat and spices. They carry Boar's Head which is great sandwich meat. I give them a big thumbs up. Come on Chino Hills give it a try. You can bring your own wine and only a $10 corkage fee. read more

Great friendly location! Super clean, love the quality and variety of meats available. I'd recommend this location to anyone!!

Went to the soft opening. The store is very organized and clean. They sell a variety of items: sandwiches, dried pasta, impressive variety of imported cheeses, charcuterie, seafood, chicken, pork, and of course beef. When I saw the prices, I literally laughed. Mind you, I recognize quality and can appreciate a dry aged prime steak. But when the price of the raw ingredient approaches or exceeds what I can get at a decent restaurant or online, I hesitate since I vale value...the balance between quality and price. We're talking 50 Biden bucks a pound for some beef cuts. 140 dollars a pound for wagyu (which is actually probably worth it especially if olive wagyu). 50 dollars a pound for scallops (can't imagine how they can be better than Costco). They do have cuts that you won't typically find like hanger or picahna (about 20 a pound, which means a picahna is $40-60 dollars, the entrance fee for all you can eat Brazilian bbq). I can understand their strategy is low volume, high margin. But for meats, they better move enough product to maintain freshness. I could have fit the profile of their target customers, but short of a special occasion indulgence, I cannot justify shopping here regularly. Ultimately, it pains me to write a review like this for a local independent business. I wish them the best of luck. I hope I am wrong and their assessment of the Chino Hills market is spot on. I love having real butchers nearby. But then their choice of name begs the question: are they a real butcher? Do they process the animals or do they buy from a wholesaler or distributor? Are they a middleman? They certainly offer good quality meat from sources like Snake River. For me, a real butcher will process whole animal carcasses from a local farm (we certainly have lots of cows in the IE) and sells the cuts they prepare themselves...not just trimming fat and breaking down primal and subprimal cuts they order from a checklist. That way they can offer quality, customization, and value without any pretense. Of course the reality of the meat market means real butchers are becoming rare. I asked if they had pork jowl. The person behind the counter (who probably has never butchered an animal) said he would have to order from their supplier. I said "Never mind." In my ideal world, the right answer would be, "Of course, the next time I butcher a pig, I'll save the cheeks for you." I don't think this happens here. read more

I come here weekly for my weekly meat shopping. Today's experience was not the best. The girls in their working have zero customer service skills. read more

It was really worth the wait-they seemed to be delayed in opening waiting for the health certificate. The staff are so nice. They are great sharing their knowledge about the different cuts of meat, we never felt rushed. The meat we bought was so worth the price. Bonus, the person behind the counter gave us a 'free smoked burger' to try as well, which was so good. Their service is wonderful, not sure why anyone left a negative review...I guess thats what happens when you ask someone their opinion, they sometimes feel it needs to be negative. This is a local business, and I love supporting local companies. read more

Locked in beautiful restaurant and meat market. The meat market was overwhelming so wonderful all the fresh cuts of beef, pork chicken, fish everything you could ask for. Wanted to have lunch waited to be seated. No one ever stated to us your to go down the line to order. Small Menu due to Fourth of July which is understandable. One loaded baked potato with brisket one brisket sandwich, and one Steak sandwich. Outstanding the meat was wonderful, set in the restaurant ate our lunch. Staff was very good! read more

Tried the picanha sandwich here today and OMG it was so good I had to order another one! The sandwich is $18 with tax and it's so delicious. The picture I took does no justice (and I already ate some of it so the sandwich was squished when I took the pic lol). The picanha is cooked perfectly, very tender and moist. I'll definitely be revisiting again to order the same sandwich and to try their other menu items. They have a wide selection of good quality meats you can purchase here too and bring home to cook. Service is also really friendly. Great new place in chino hills you need to check out! read more

Went in to buy a New York strip and was treated like I was inconveniencing them. I stood at the meat counter while two employees were standing at the register chatting it up. Paid $37 for a 12 oz steak. The real problem is, the steak was very oxidized on the bottom side that wasn't visible to me until I had already gotten back home. While oxidization isn't necessarily a sign of spoilage, the smell coming off of it was. I wanted to believe it was all in my head so I went ahead and cooked it anyways. All it took was two bites to throw the rest away. I reached out about my experience but I never received any sort of reply. I drove out of my way to get what I thought was going to be a quality cut of steak, instead I got an upset stomach. read more

Best quality meat you will find in the area, and amazing selection of cheeses! I had a chance to dine in and taste the amazing wagyu, filet mignon, and ribeye, paired with some sides, and a great red wine that I brought in - heaven!! read more

Absolutely amazing sandwiches! While I am not a steak person or a meat person by any means the meat looks fresh. The star of their shop however is the selection of delicious sandwiches.

They also have a great selection of spices and butter and cheese! read more

I am always on the hunt for a new butcher! I don't eat beef often, but when I do, I want high quality. I live in Riverside and headed to Brunk's for a Valentine's treat. Those aged tomahawk steaks looked amazing but a big steak is too much for us anymore so Dylan steered me toward some small filet medallions-grass fed, no antibiotics. He said they were the best he'd tasted recently and he was right! The medallions were delicious and just enough for a weeknight dinner. I'll be sure to return. read more

They're sampling Filet Minon!!! This brisket sandwich is a meat overload! I had a hankering for mid-western style meat market sammies. They get a beer license in 2 months, so I will come back here with the family. Dear Brunk, please make fries to go with your burgers. I love fries. A lot. Thank you. Love, Me Update: Finally decided to open up the Wagyu beef hotdogs I purchase from Brunks and the expiration date reads Use or Freeze by April 2023. I figured what the heck and cooked them up. They had a sour taste to them, but I couldn't waste $17 on a pack of hotdogs. Red wine helped settled my stomach, but I believe the products sold here should be discounted if they are past their expiration date. That's what every other market does with their old product. Also, I found the same hotdogs on Vons.com for only $10. read more

My first impression of this place was not great. The biggest red flag from this place was the fact that I was served a pile of plastic on my sandwich. I took a bite of my sandwich like normal, and ended up having to pull strands of plastic out of my throat. Could have been pretty bad if someone choked on this stuff. I brought it to the attention of the staff and he told me it was "technically edible" but if I didn't like it, I could pull it off the pepperoni myself. That is pretty terrible customer service if you ask me. I would not recommend anyone to eat here. The Panera across the way is similarly priced and the quality control is more reliable. read more

Food quality was great 5 stars ... service was less to be desired. Long wait .. staff was wearing street clothes felt unprofessional. When the food was brought out they didn't know who got what. The price of the food and service was too much. Great looking place... But I think I'm one and done read more

I always say your experience may be different better or worse. My girl wanted Rib-eye according to her my steaks are amazing. She googled this place because she didn't was a Staters Bros half butchered steaks soooooooo we ended up here. I'm not going to front I was super hesitant. This place is a bit pricey, however the service was amazing. I learned about dry aged and some other meat facts. Did I mention the customer service was amazing. When I got home simple kosher salt, olive oil, butter, garlic, rosemary, and cast iron. These steaks were amazing nice buttery smooth you can taste the care and quality definitely worth the drive and price. Thank you read more

Brunk's is a new business in Norco. Although my wife and I no longer live in Norco, we were back to visit family and decided to stop in. First of all, Brunk's carries QUALITY meats like Kobe, etc. All of the meats looked really, really good. If you come here looking for a chub of cheap ground beef don't bother. We picked out a porterhouse, a ribeye, a couple of Italian sausages with goat cheese, a bit of smoked bleu cheese, and a bit of red dragon spicy cheese. As I wrote this review we have tried the cheeses and the porterhouse is sitting in a rib getting ready for the grill. I will update this review once we try the meats! Brunk's was clean, the folks were friendly, and the meat and cheeses looked outstanding. I expect we will wish Brunk's had opened up while we still lived nearby! Ok, quick update. My lovely wife and I grilled up the porterhouse at the campsite. She mixed up a butter using some of the smoked bleu cheese as a topping. Superb all the way around! The steak was very tender and flavorful. I am looking forward to trying the other meats we bought. read more

Rude, non-attentive service. Unknowledgeable staff. Crazy high prices!! I ordered a 6 pound prime rib roast a week in advance as recommended. When I arrived the roast was not ready. I had to wait for it to be cut and trimmed. I was rudely told the roasts are usually sold by the number of ribs, not by pounds. I asked how many for a six pound roast, or to feed four; I was told three ribs. . The roast was $309.! This was my first and last purchase. read more

Great Steak made to order. Excellent taste and juicy and delicious. Good service too.

Brunks is the bomb . Enjoy their meat and specialty grocery goods . I ordered the Turkey this year for Thanksgiving it was great !
