He takes a lot of pride in his work and you won't find any cleaner, leaner and top cuts of meat anywhere! There is no smell as everything is super fresh and he packages the meat neatly in bags the way you request so it's ready for your freezer! They have everything Pakistani and Indian that you could ever need! From frozen prepared items, plenty variety of rices, flours, pulses, spices, sweets, pickles, housewares and beauty products! All items on the shelves are fully stocked and all product is rotated properly. The store and butcher area is super clean and that's why we travel 25 miles to get our meat here! They also do catering and sell ready made dishes from the fresh cut meat they get in the morning. Everyone loves their chicken biryani and it sells out fast. We tried the chicken 65 and chili chicken and it's the best we've tasted in a very long time! Parking is directly in front of the store and parking on the side of the store is allowed on weekends. Pictures of packaged meat in ziploc bags I did on my own from home but I included them here do you could see the prime top quality you get here!

We were promptly seated at a spacious booth that was perfect for 2. They basically inherited all the furniture from the previous Marcello's restaurant. The restaurant itself was spacious with tasteful décor, although it was a bit dark. Service was very friendly and attentive throughout the evening. I ordered a Mango Lassi ($4), which was creamy and sweet with a strong mango flavor, absolutely delicious. My husband had a beer ($5). For food, we first shared an order of Garlic Naan ($5). The 5 pieces were warm and delightful. Although they were not as fluffy and were thinner than other naan we've had, they had crispy, crunchy bases and were packed with garlicky flavor in every bite, seriously addictive! Just for the Mango Lassi and Garlic Naan, I would absolutely come back. We also ordered Butter Chicken ($19) and Goat Curry ($22) to share. Since their entrées do not include rice, we also got an order of Basmati Rice ($4). The Butter Chicken was creamy and buttery, although the sauce was a bit on the sweet side. The chicken pieces were all meat and not dry. The Goat Curry was spicy but flavorful, with tender meat attached to the bones, except for one chewy piece. The portions were good, and we even had some Butter Chicken left to take home. All in all, we had a good experience and would love to come back to try more dishes. I am rounding the experience from 4.5 to 5 stars.

I checked Yelp and ordered from Hofherr Meat based on the stellar reviews. I often peek into Hofherr Meat when walking into Shred415 so was excited to finally try it! About 2 days before I was telling a friend where i got my turkey and she asked me how i plan to cook it. Cook it?? It literally had not occurred to me that my turkey would be raw. If it's not obvious from this review and ALL my restaurant reviews the kitchen is not where I shine. I called Hofherr to ask if they could cook my turkey and while apparently they do that it was too late to put in the request. Good to know for next time. Wednesday morning I joined the rest of the North Shore to pick up my raw turkey. I ran into a friend while waiting for it who is more of an expert when it comes to making turkeys and she asked them to give me gravy, a turkey bag (apparently easier and lessy messy to cook in a bag) and some directions. The next day I followed their directions along with some help from my bestie chatgpt. I stuck it in the oven and crossed my fingers we wouldn't be going without a turkey this thanksgsiving. We had a little mishap when the thermometer melted into the turkey (oops), but besides that it really wasn't too difficult of a process. And while I had trouble eating a turkey after seeing it raw my family was thrilled that it was perfectly moist and praised my turkey making skills. I did have a few bites and did think it was pretty good- and i dont even like turkey. I would definitely get my turkey from here again, although next time i'll be ordering a cooked turkey out of convenience. But for those of you who like to cook a turkey I recommend them!

What I liked most was the store didn't smell like meat even though we were clearly in a meat market and all of the meat at the counter looked fresh, normal sized and without discoloration. I also liked that there wasn't too much meat just sitting out - just enough for the day. The most important thing is they don't price gauge !!! All of the meat is affordable and you get organic quality meats that cost no more than what would you pay at the average grocery store and sometimes less. This is definitely the place for your weekly meat needs while staying in budget.

My husband loves steaks and beef and well, any type of meat. We get our meat from everywhere ranging from the Jewels to Costco to high end Prime butcher shops. Seeing Adal Meats on my list of to try, we decided to pay this place a visit. We got here on a Saturday around 4pm and the meats were almost all gone for the day. The lovely person behind the counter explained how they cut their own meat and everything is handled carefully by expert trained butchers. She gave us time to look over what we wanted and I never felt rushed. We decided to go with 2 porterhouse steaks and 2 boneless ribeyes. The prices were so reasonable! The steaks were the most flavorful and tender steaks we have ever had cooked at home! The filet portion of the porterhouse was buttery tender and so succulent! My gosh, all we put were salt and pepper on the meats and they tasted phenomenal! It tasted like we had steaks at some of our favorite high end restaurants, but we were dressed in our comfies! We will definitely be back to Adal Meats for more! The service and the convenience are great, but the quality really wins us over!

Neither of us had been there before, and it had good ratings already. It's a somewhat small place, but there was ample seating since most people seem to take their food to go. When we walked into the restaurant, I immediately noticed that it was clean and had nice modern decor. I am guessing the man at the counter was the owner because he was super helpful and friendly. I asked if there were any vegan options and he showed me what they offered. I chose the Chana Masala with a side of basmati rice. The portion sizes were outstanding, and the flavor was delicious. He also brought a water carafe for our table, which allowed us to refill our own drinks. Prices were very reasonable, especially for the portion size. (The only thing I would recommend is that they repaint their bathroom so it looks cleaner.)
