A great butcher and the grill is amazing. Very good customer service. If they don't have a particular meat, you can order it.

Fred the Butcher is a 5 star butcher and 4 star eatery. I’ll be mostly focusing on the eatery. While the portions are generous, the meat is high quality, the seasoning was on the bland side. It feels sacrilegious to vote Fred the Butcher as anything but a 5 star on all accounts. The butcher itself is as high quality as they come. They were voted the best Prime Butcher Shop in the country in September and they deserve it. The prices are good, the employees are helpful, and there is a wide array of price points to explore. As a butcher, I visit them time and again. Today was the first time I have tried the restaurant. The restaurant inside of Fred the Butcher uses high quality meat in their sandwiches, wraps, and burgers. It’s a difference I could taste immediately. Fred’s is a good example of how quality doesn’t always come at a high a cost. What I bought: -Cordon Bleu Sandwich -Chicken, Bacon, Ranch Wrap -Fries Total: $26, including tax. $13 per person is certainly affordable. For the sheer quality I got, it was a steal. The value is also in their generous portion sizes. The manager on duty has an impressive memory and was able to remember the customization to my order before he got the list, and he remembered it with constant things pulling his attention away. The service was fast as well. While my order was correct, the seasoning was on the bland side and the seasoning that existed on the fries was inconsistent so some of the fries were properly seasoned and some had no seasoning at all. The chicken bacon ranch wrap was cooked with care. The chicken had a nice sear, the bacon was nice and chewy, and there was a good ratio between vegetables and meat. They left the wrap on the grill to cook the tortilla as well and it was nice touch. There wasn’t enough salt, pepper and garlic. I had to go home and season it myself but when I did, I could taste the smokiness of the bacon and it brought out the charred bits of chicken and it was all tempered by the smooth ranch dressing. Incredible. A bit more seasoning and this wrap would have easily been one of the best in the area. The Cordon Bleu Sub had a nice coating on the chicken and it was cooked perfectly. The cheese was so decadent and the cheese pull was nice and gooey. The sauce provided a good contrast to the chicken and cheese. The sub roll was toasted and had a nice crunch to it. The portions of the sandwich were generous. So generous, in fact, we needed a fork to eat it as our puny human jaw could not compete. Having said that, while the breading on the chicken tastes great, that greatness is faint and doesn’t stick on the palate. Just a bit more seasoning and this sandwich would have joined the greats. I still recommend Fred’s, both as a butcher and as a restaurant proprietor. I suggest you bring some salt and pepper with you or take it to go and season it once you get home. If you do, this will likely become one of your favorite spots.

Bought ribs and Wagyu burgers on a Friday. Really good quality on both. Ribs great job, removed silver skin, no shiners, stayed good and moist thru a smoke. $6.99/lb steep price, but really good, never frozen unlike all the local stores. Wagyu burgers bought Friday Oct 25th. Smoked em tonight Monday Oct 28th. Made some of the BEST bacon cheeseburgers I've had in my life. Cooked to about a nice 135-140F, so juicy 100% worth the price. Spent about $8 in store for 2 pre-made patties about .4-.5lb each (8.99/lb). Easily $20 per plate as a restaurant for the quality and size of burger and we got 2 of them. Craving the next ones already.
