We have been loyal customers since David himself opened this store. Located as end cap of a small strip center on Jupiter in RIchardson. Here is a real butcher that can take a whole bull and make All the cuts needed. Way different than a " meat cutter" at the grocery store that cuts from pre- cut beef Mainly a fat removal job David's grandson now owns this hidden jewel. My go to for grilling on my pit. If you ask for extra thick or lean cuts, He will customize your order. Friendly service with true knowledge of his profession. Compared to other meat markets the price and quality are top notch. Stop by soon and see for yourself. read more

Devin was great! Provided me with tips on how to prepare the brisket that I purchased.

While the steak we purchased was excellent, we would have purchased more but they had cleared the cases 30 minutes early. The new owner(?) needs to take a lesson in customer service to put it kindly. He made it clear he was going to be out the door as soon we left. As someone who's worked in retail I know what a difference a happy customer makes. We will take our business elsewhere. read more

I have gone to David's for years they are the best. His wife and I would talk while I would start at the door buying meat stop and the end.

Wonderful people and high quality meats. Please support this family owned business that has been serving Garland and the surrounding area for decades. read more

It was a little hoof, but totally worth the drive. The woman behind the counter is awesome! i asked for flank steak and she provided me an alternative since they were out. ... it was excellent cut of meat bought some jerky as well. flavorful, chewy, and totally yummy. I would drive back just for the jerky!! Will try Davids again read more

Bought some T-bones for Father's Day. They were incredible. Ditch the grocery store and buy meat from a local butcher! You won't be sorry.

Overdue review. Called many places for a whole pig last year as it was my first time doing it and was referred to David's meat market. From the time I called till I picked up the pig the service was beyond my expectations. They helped me with choosing the right weight, had the pig butterflied and even kept it in their cooler for an extra day until I could go pick it up. When I picked it up they even gave me some of their shop made apple sausages for free to try which came out great. Just ordered my 2nd pig for Christmas this year and was treated with the same level of service. Best butcher shop hands down! It's hard finding butcher shops that take pride in their craft and also treat you like family. Thanks David's Meat Market, keep it up! read more

Something is extremely wrong with this place. I was there on a Saturday at 3:00pm and the place was completely empty..... (First Red Flag). I walked in and no employees could be found anywhere..... (Second Red flag). All of their steaks were wrapped in plastic wrap which seemed very odd to me..... (Third Red Flag). I've never seen a butcher shop do that to their steaks. Their hamburger meat looked like it had been sitting in their display case for days. Kind of gray looking and it smelled really funky when I got it home..... (Fourth Red Flag). I purchased two basic looking Choice Ribeye steaks and three pounds of 80/20 hamburger meat for $103.00 dollars!!!!! ((((((( ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME ))))))) Where do they get off charging these outrageous prices? I could have gotten two cooked ribeye steak dinners at Saltgrass Steakhouse with two salads, two fully dressed baked potatoes, two orders of steamed vegetables, unlimited freshly made iced tea, unlimited fresh bread, two pieces of New York cheese cake and unlimited coffee for what I paid at this place. NEVER, EVER, NEVER, EVER AGAIN. read more

Lived in Garland 20 years ago and discovered this authentic butcher shop. Visited again this week and Grandson is now running the shop. But as his Grandfather did, the Meat is still really of a quality step above any grocery store. As an example every steak or cut is hand wrapped in Saran Wrap in the meatcase which keeps it fresh and protected. Also grab a bottle or two of Dave's traditional spice for grilling those streaks as well as pork and chicken. read more

Family friendly good meat quality great sausage hotdogs and marrow bones! Open 5 days a week good neighborhood store! Convenient and fast !

Service and inventory has gone way downhill since the grandson took over. It's a shame.

Great brick chili, love their hamburgers, their homemade sausages. I called recently at 5 minutes till closing looking for some chili and Devon stayed open until I drove down the street to get it. I know it may not seem like a big deal, but customer service is important to me and this shop delivers. read more

Have been going here since I moved to area in 1992. Beef & pork are always superior. Great selection of homemade sausages. Rib roast and crown roast of pork for holidays are great. I also love that they trim and wrap as you request on certain cuts. All their beef is corn fed Iowa beef - to me it tastes much better than grass fed beef. Service is great also and can place phone orders. Highly recommend. read more

Local Garland meat market-the only place you need to go! The only place I go for my filet mignon=incredible,tender and tasty

I have used this market since the current owner's father taught me how to cook meat as a young wife. Today I learned the current owner has lost all his employees and the business is rapidly failing. If you love this place then buy some meat to help out this young owner! read more

I've been going here for a few years now, always ordering the same. A beef tenderloin roast. I've never ever been disappointed with the service for quality of their meat. I personally would recommend them with my highest regards. David's meat market is the best!! Shawna Markman read more

This is an old fashioned Butcher Shop. You will not find friendlier or more professional help. Huge assortment of meats. Select, choice and prime beef. You may think the prices are high but not for the quality of beef that you get. I've been shopping here about a year and had only one tough steak. When I told them about it, they gave me a free one. Whether it's bacon, sausage or steaks, you will not be disappointed. You should also try their spices. My favorite is "Good Shit". It's perfect for anything you cook. They'll let you sample all of them but the "Shit" line of products is the best you've ever had. Thanks guys for taking such good care of me. Chris read more

If you need the perfect steaks for a dinner party, go talk to these people. They will help you to select the cuts that your guests are gong to love. They also have a whole smoked brisket that is as good as it gets. You might want to call ahead and reserve for events. read more

Excellent quality and price I Am from Gulf Shores Alabama and was pleasantly surprised that this butcher was close to our rental property

Fantastic little meat market! My dad was a butcher for a period of time and I learned about meat from him, and usually frequent grocery stores that will cut my meat personally for me to my specifications. However, when I want to splurge on REALLY GOOD QUALITY MEAT, I look for a meat market. I stopped by when I decided to forego the backed up traffic on 75 and skip up Jupiter to East Plano instead. Since it was just after Christmas, they still had their way cute windows painted in a Winter Wonderland scene. I was giggling at the sign on the door advising people to "Take their Deer to the Rear". I was greeted by a friendly guy who turned out to be Devon, the owner's grandson, and we commenced a discussion about their meat on offer. I was in the mood for ribeyes, having eaten an inordinate amount of ham over the Christmas holiday and the meat here did NOT disappoint! I got two prime ribeyes, and picked up some smoked sausage and Mexican chorizo as well to try. The ribeyes were over an inch thick and melt in your mouth tender, with just the right amount of fat on them. Since our broiler isn't working that well, I pan fried them to a medium rare goodness in a bit of butter and seasonings. OMG goodness! The smoked sausage, which we had last night, was very flavorful and preferred over the kielbasa that you can get in the normal grocecry store. The Mexican chorizo was the biggest surprise. Other than going to a Mexican market nearby (which I have done), I haven't found a good chorizo for a long while. The ones in the Mexican markets are good, but still lacking flavor at times. David's was not only surprisingly good, but very meaty and lacking filler. Yay! I hate it when cereal is added to it. But the most surprising quality about it was the taste. I tasted heat and flavor for once and an excellent combination of spices, and it was very lean too! Will be going back to sample a bit more of their meats and sausages I think. Also going to check into whether they make South African boerwors or Portugese linguica - I happen to have the recipes for these and maybe they'll make some up. :-) read more

David's Meat Market - Meat Shops Near Me - Garland, Texas

My parents used to own Egg Roll Cafe next door to David's Meat Market. I remember the owner was so kind to us. It was small things like we would always buy a $1 worth of bacon but he would always give us more than $1 worth. Such small acts of kindness meant to world to our family that was struggling to build roots here in the U.S. So happy to hear that grandson took over the market and it stayed in the family! I wish we still had our restaurant but unfortunately we sold it 15 years ago. Will have to go back and visit one day and get some bacon! read more

My husband likes to say that he hesitates when ordering a steak at a restaurant because my steaks turn out so well (medium rare, to be precise). The truth is that the steaks from David's Meat Market are my secret weapons. I don't think they'd be as good were I throwing prepackaged steaks from Walmart on the grill. From thick-cut bacon, to New York strip, to ground chuck, I turn to David's whenever I need to cook breakfast the next morning or need to make chili. The quality of their selection is unparalleled and the always-helpful employees there have never steered me wrong when it comes to selecting a perfectly-marbled steak. I gladly go out of my way when grocery shopping because David's is worth the extra few miles. read more

Great selection of meat and workers were awesome! Very helpful! Felt like prices were a tad steep but worth it for the quality and help.

David, grandson Devon & their staff are true professionals who KNOW what they're doing. I've been buying steaks there for 2 years, got an uber-nice prime rib on short notice for Christmas 2009. They told me to come in early in the fall and pre-order a dry-aged one this year. WOW. I served a full 12-pounder (7-bone) dry-aged prime rib for a table of ten friends and family at our house. It was beyond delicious -- ALL rave reviews, like three folks saying "the best darn prime rib I've EVER had" (and they probably had over 100 years of eating prime-rib between them!) So yes, go here! Ask questions! Learn the simple joy of ordering great cuts in a superb family-owned & operated butcher shop! Hunters, get your dang deer dressed. Foodies be prepared for some truly fantastic meals that will make you understand how absolutely LAME even high-end Supermarket meat products are. read more

David's Meat Market - Meat Shops Near Me - Garland, Texas

Meat is decent. I would look for prime steaks but often times they'd tell me their supply truck hadn't gotten there and would give me choice steaks. Most of the butchers are pretty nice but there's one guy that's absolutely rude and seems to be no help when you call. I used to love this place because of the service and cuts. I've gone various times here and each time the service has been inconsistent. I officially have moved on to a better butcher shop with more variety, better prices, and most importantly... great customer service every time I go. Sorry guys it's a 1 star from me now.. read more

Decades-old family-owned and operated butcher shop. David's has top quality prime and choice beef, I've been purchasing their rib-eye and prime-rib roasts for years. They're soft as butter and rich with flavor. Plus they've got a whole line of pork products, and make their own sausage! Check 'em out! It's Grillin' Time! read more

We have always loved everything we have gotten here! Great summer sausage, great steaks, great pork chops! Our go to place for meats!

l always get the prime filet mignon here. Top notch quality with friendly staff. Feeling lucky that they are so close. Ngoc OConnor, Garland - TX read more

Vegetarian here! But YES! David has my heart. It's not a secret. My husband knows; he doesn't mind. It's not often that I bring home big round, fat, juicy cuts, but when I do, it's from David's. Despite the fact I have no idea what David's meat taste like, the gentlemen behind the counter are always patient with my innocent questions and help me make a husband endearing selection. Their sausages and ground chuck really delight on a week night, but for a special occasion their beef tenderloins really make a statement. And if you are in a hurry, there's jerky, which I've been told is perfect for a quicky snack. Thanks, David's for your customer service, fine cuts, and attention to detail. You've won this vegetarian's heart and secured my martial bliss. read more

The staff is wonderful! They did an excellent job answering our questions about a whole pig that we ordered. When we got there our little guy needed to use the restroom. They allowed him in, even with covid, and gave him some beef jerky as a parting gift. Our Son won't stop talking about the pig place! read more

Ordered some fresh ground pork a few months ago for homemade meatballs. They grinded the pork right while I waited. It was so fresh and delicious. Going to buy more tomorrow for more meatballs. Great place, great people read more

David's is GREAT! We have shopped there for more than 25 years, with the original owner. And Devon, the grandson is doing a fabulous job. Curbside pick up keeps us all safe with great meat too. read more

Our steaks were great. Great customer service and butcher was very knowledgeable! 5 stars!

My first time going there and couldn't be happier! First, when I called to ask if they had franks for hot dogs, the gentleman who took my call was *perfect*!! He said "Yes, ma'am and we have the best franks made right here", showing me he was really proud of it. Score!!! Nothing makes me more willing to go to a business than a proud employee/owner! The store is super clean, super organized. Really impressed by that. I bought my franks (delicious, by the way! Smoky flavored, awesome) and then I asked the guy if they had beef for carpaccio (rare to find in States). He said yes and cut PERFECT thin slices for me, put in a perfect package. Score Score Score!!! And on top of that, suggested me a great place to buy buns for my hotdog (I needed very big buns). They are so super nice, excellent customer service! I am already recommending the place to all my friends. read more

David's meat market is located on the northbound side of Jupiter between Beltline and Arapaho. It's in a small strip center and David has a loyal following. David gets outstanding meat and he butchers it well. There is the requisite smoked meats and sausages and David is always willing to advise on how a given cut will cook best, based on what he started with. The only reason I didn't give five stars is because I sometimes wish David had a wider selection. Still, by and large, this is one of the Dallas sides' better meat markets. read more
