Adrian PhillipsDecember 23, 2017This place has been here for 60 years, Mike is the owner. Friendly bunch of legends with a ton of different meats. Got a leg of lamb, filet mignon, Canadian bacon and more from here. Tons of sausage.
The best butcher shop around Brooklyn heights, Carroll gardens, Clinton hill, gowanus... great quality, good prices, and they sell every animal/cut you can imagine.
Michael BelluardoJuly 28, 2016Awesome old school meat market.Very helpful with tips on cuts to try.Ended up Trying the 30 day aged shell steak, cut 3/4".Very tender with great flavor. aged steak for $14.99 per lb , that's cheap
Courtney BoltonJanuary 31, 2014...amazing place! Has alligator steaks, antelope, buffalo, caribou, elk, frog, kangaroo, rabbit, venison, turtle meat, rattlesnake, wild boar, ostrich!
the 30-day aged, bone-in shell steaks are excellent value for $12.99/lb. get 'em 2" thick, marinate in soy sauce and grill on highest possible heat for 8 min per side. charred outside, rare inside.
The only place I go for quality meat in Brooklyn. Fair prices, good service, great product.
Best butcher in Brooklyn. Great meat, good prices. Excellent homemade sausages as well.
The best butcher in NYC. The porterhouse is always a crowd pleaser. The wild game sausages are a nice treat as well.
These guys are the best! Great variety, always fresh- and amazing service. It's not cheap, but hey- you get what you pay for!
Octopuses are supposed to be very intelligent – but I'm glad that they're not so intelligent that they avoid ending up in Paisanos's octopus salad, because it is delicious!
Daniel McDonoughNovember 25, 2015Perfect neighborhood butcher. They have anything you could want. Prices are high and the wait is usually long but worth it.
Huge selection of awesome cold cut sandwiches. Paisanos hero weighs two lbs. Don't overthink it...all of them are great. All the marinated meats are great for an easy dinner.
Marc MayerJune 9, 2019Some of the best cuts of really high quality meat. The line moves quickly, if you’re averse to standing around.
Di Parma and The Paisano sandwiches will not disappoint. Best selection of meats, sausages, and Italian goods in the hood.
I feel so fortunate to have this wonderful place in my life. So lucky to be able to feed my family the wonderful things I can get here.
You want it, they've got it. Elk, emu, camel, antelope, rattlesnake, gator, boar, kangaroo...
Only butcher shop I have seen in Brooklyn with Bachalla. Worth the line out the door on Fridays
Quinton SilversOctober 25, 2015Everything I usually pick up Filet Mignon, Paisanos ground beef to make burgers and stew beef
If you're getting a sandwich, stay by the front half of the counter near the door. The back half is for people getting meaty treats to cook elsewhere.
M KAugust 16, 2013Stuff you didn't know they sold: their own fresh pastas on the back, ready to cook meatballs and kebabs.
New York HabitatMay 15, 2012This old school Brooklyn butcher combines quality products with great service! If you’re ever in Cobble Hill be sure to stop by!
If you just describe what you're making, they'll hook you up with all the right cuts. I still don't actually know what part of the cow a brisket is.
Matt DorvilleAugust 10, 2014My butcher of choice. Make sure to get a frequent buyer card and rack up points for a discount.- Quinton SilversOctober 25, 2015Everything from here is super fresh...It can get crowded really quickly so shop early
Marinated short ribs and marinated chicken are both awesome- Get a paisanos sandwich, 10 sliders, 2 aged strips, 1 skirt, and a key lime pie. #Fugetaboutit
Kev SkinnyAugust 13, 2014Many will tell you fiaccos for pork. I disagree. Paisanos is my Brooklyn pork spot.
FabioNovember 19, 2013Old school butcher. Great thick NY strips n Prime ribs. Sasauge r spectacular.
Best meat place locally - great cuts, sausages & poultry. Great fresh pastas and sauces, as well as stocks & rendered fats for cooking.
If you're a cute girl, count on some price lowering. They're super retro Italian dudes
- Better than the overpriced Staubitz a block away. Try their amazing grass fed ground beef!
Benjamin HaasJanuary 29, 2011Incredible selection of sausages. Don't see what you want? Ask for it, they probably have it.
The most flavorful ground turkey you'll ever have, and excellent sausages.- Dominic LaycockMarch 2, 2014If you want advice or anything approximating helpfulness probably best to go elsewhere
