Since I started buying my meat here, I have never, ever bought grocery store meat again. It's all super fresh, never frozen (unless you get it from the freezer, duh), and reasonably priced. Yes it's more expensive than a grocery store. But it's worth the extra few dollars for the quality.

Jazmin Palacios

(Translated) They sell very good products, I live in Serca and I'm going to buy there because there is a man in the meat area, Mr. Gustavo, he speaks good Spanish for those who do not handle the language here well, like me????????????????. (Original) Venden muy buenos productos yo vivo serca y voy a comprar alli porque hay un señor en el área de carnes, el señor Gustavo el habla español bueno para los que no manejan bien el idioma de aqui, como yo????????????????.

Johanne Thessereault

Maude Clement

Leg of lamb was rotten when I unrapped smelt terrible. This place should not be in business.

Natalie Vincent

Fanta Diallo

(Translated) Super good butchery. We have been going there for several years and are always satisfied with the quality of the meat. We even continued to go there after our move from the neighborhood, not finding a butcher shop up to par ????. We have a weakness for the butcher Gustavo who offers us an excellent service with each visit ????. (Original) Super bonne boucherie. Nous y allons depuis plusieurs années et sommes toujours satisfait de la qualité de la viande. Nous avons même continué à y aller après notre déménagement du quartier ne trouvant pas une boucherie à leur hauteur ????. Nous avons un faible pour le boucher Gustavo qui nous offre un excellent service à chaque visite ????.

I hear people come from all over to buy their meat. They sell fresh meat at fair prices, and they also have offer cooked meats like porchetta, sausages, beef and pork ribs, and chicken breast, wings, thighs and drumsticks either by the pound or in a pre-packaged meal served with veggies, rice or baked potatoes. I've sampled quite a few, namely the porchetta (packaged with potato wedges at $5.00) and the pulled pork (also packaged at about $5.00). It's tasty and at such a low price, it's perfect if you're eating on a budget. Last year they've moved a couple doors up in the same strip mall to a newly renovated and more spacious locale.

Hayden R

Appalling customer service. When I asked if they had a certain cut of beef which was advertised on their website, I was rudely dismissed and told "What website? In the 6 years I've been working here we've never had that cut nor do we intend to carry that cut". I returned home to double check their website and called them. I was told that unless I plan to buy half a cow and cut it myself he would not help me and that they don't actually cut their own meat, they order it already cut. some butcher.

Samantha Jeanne

After having so many issues with quality of meat at grocery stores, I decided to try a butcher. La Preference has never disappointed, the price is amazing, the staff is always helpful and amazing quality! I will never buy grocery meats again :) Thank you!!

Sandugash

(Translated) I try to have a zero waste lifestyle as much as possible, and I really like this butcher shop, because they accept to put the meat that I buy in my reusable ziplock bags instead of wrapping in plastic and styrofoam . (Original) J'essaie d'avoir un mode de vie 0 déchets le plus possible, et j'aime beaucoup cette boucherie, car ils acceptent de mettre la viande que j'achète dans mes sacs ziplocs réutilisables au lieu d'emballer dans du plastique et styrofoam.

Nicole G

Very friendly and great service ????

Daniel Antonio Patrizzi Rodriguez

(Translated) Very good attention, there you get the cut of meat that you prefer, at the right price, there are also groceries, ample parking. I recommend it ???????? (Original) Muy buena atención, allí consigues el corte de carne que tu prefieras, al precio adecuado , también hay víveres, estacionamiento amplio. Lo recomiendo ????????

Maxime Vaillancourt

Stank of the Lamb A good 6 pounds boneless lamb leg for 65$... Sealed packed, they wrap a new plastic with the date of purchase on it, CLEARLY NOT THE PACKAGING DATE!!! When I open it the smell was HORRIBLE. The next day it turn green... in less than 12 hours the meat was rotten. Return, got some steak exchange for replacement (More turn over, hopefully fresher...) I made the butcher open the others pack of vaccum sealed Lamb, he end up wasting them all, ALL is lamb was ROTTEN. Avoid.

Gairy Plummer

Excellent cuts and choices.

Linda Khv

I pick up my bacon from here everything other Sunday. They sell them at a very good price and the cut is amazing. They taste so good too. So much better than store packaged! I also like to pick up random meats to throw on my BBQ. Most importantly, its the service! You can ask the butcher any question, ask him different cuts! I love customized service.

Ham Solo

Butcher shop with a bit of everything for your needs. The freezers have bones for soup broths of various kinds as well as marrow. The butcher counter has a bit of everything for you. There's even prepared hot food for you to select from either by weight or by plate (I find sometimes the prepared food has that 'fridge' taste to it) . Oh, and then all the usual Italian things you'd need to cook with fill the place. Friendly staff. Plenty of parking out front. Wheelchair accessible.

Luca M

Great selection of meat, friendly staff very clean location.

angelo tarantino

The best hands down. Their freshness an Italian hospitality will greet you with a great surprise it's a Hidden Gem

Doug Bishop

This place has some of the best meat at the greatest prices in Montreal. I have no idea what these other reviewers are talking about, it's great steak at a fantastic price.

Ray Francoeur

Great selection of meats, very helpful and knowledgeable staff will help you select the best cut for your occasion

Babak Owen

The steaks we bought were clearly frozen... Dried up the second we cooked them. Been buying from everywhere iga ... Atwater market. Everything...by far the worst steaks iv had in my life.

Malissa M

Best Boucherie I have had the pleasure of finding. Appearances can be desieving, from the out side you would never guess the treasure waiting within. The food is always fresh and there are many choices. The staff is absolutely ????????. They will go above and beyond for you. Prices can not be beat.

Joey Mathew

Excellent store, great prices, meats are tasty!!

The place is bigger so more room to shop. The meat section is the same size from their previous location but they have a bigger grocery area. The staff is friendly and helpful.

Despina Kouli

Excellent quality and great customer service! The girl with the brown hair is always super sweet to me :)

Andrea Williams

A huge thank you We had Tony and family cook us a 17 pound boneless turkey for a holiday feast at an alternative high school. Not only was the price unbeatable but the meat juicy and tender.

Billy Sakkas

The meat here is some of the best I’ve ever had, would 10/10 recommend!

sophie dubreuil

(Translated) I did not know this store and unfortunately my last 3 visits disappointed me. Some of the items I bought had expired by at least a month eg olive cheese and italian sausages .. unfortunately I only noticed it at home .. then people are not too smiling (Original) Je ne connaissais pas ce magasin et malheureusement mes 3 dernières visites m'ont déçu. Quelques articles achetés étaient expirés d'au moins un mois ex..fromage olives et saucisses italienne..malheureusement je m'en suis aperçu seulement a la maison..puis les gens sont pas trop souriant

Sam B

With the new location it's easier to see all that's available. The prices were very good today .I went in for one item I left with six bags full.

Patrick O'flaherty

carlos de antuñano martinez

A very good place to buy meat and Italian groceries. Cheese, chorizo and tortillas.

Theo Platakos

They got some good meat. Five stars.

Richard

Sept 6, 2020. One post indicated that their meat is more expensive than grocery stores. Let me say this about that. The T-bone steaks (Porterhouse with large filet) are the same price as their T-bone and half the price of smaller butcher shops and grocery stores and the best I have ever had. I happily make a small trip from Ile Perrot; well worth the time and effort. I absolutely love these guys !!!!

Anastasia Kolokatsis

I love this place! The service is amazing and the quality of the meat is unbelievable and the best out there! definitely stop by you won’t regret it!

Serge Lefebvre

(Translated) Very good place (Original) Très bonne place

Alexiane Arsand

(Translated) The service is exceptional both behind the stall, the butchers are really attentive to our needs, or with the staff on the floor. Very good prices. For almost 4 years since my first visit, freshness, smiles, and quality products. Ground veal, pork and beef range from regular to extra lean and the more you buy, the lower the price. I cannot understand why those who make BBQs, with a lot of guests, do not want to save money and be received by a family working with passion. The butcher's shop has just changed premises, but just nearby, same parking lot. (Original) Le service est exceptionnel autant derrière l'étal, les bouchers sont vraiment à l'écoute de nos besoins, ou avec le personnel sur le plancher. Très bons prix. Depuis presque 4 années depuis ma 1ere visite, fraicheur, sourires, et produits de qualité. Veau, porc et boeuf hachés allant de régulière à extra maigre et plus on en achète, plus le prix baisse. Je ne peux comprendre pourquoi ceux qui font des BBQ, avec beaucoup de convives, ne veuillent pas économiser et être reçus par une famille travaillant avec passion. La boucherie vient de changer de local mais juste à proximité, même stationnement.

Tio Toi

Alexis-L Lemay

(Translated) The meat is excellent, but the service leaves something to be desired. I was a regular customer. It's been several times that the employees give me attitude and the last time I went, the employees ignored me and the clerk who finally came to serve me took a long time to come to the counter and is addressed to me as if I were a dog. Unacceptable. Also, I've been buying packages of bacon that contain mold a few times. You just lost a good customer! The meat is excellent, but customer service is terrible. I was a regular.

The clerk at the counter that finally came to serve me took a lot of time to come to the counter and addressed me as if I was a dog. Unacceptable. Moreover, it's been occuring several times that the bacon packages I've bought contained mold. You've lost a good customer! (Original) La viande est excellente, mais le service laisse à désirer. J'étais un client régulier. Ça fait plusieurs fois que les employés me font de l'attitude et la dernière fois que j'y suis allé, les employés m'ignoraient et le commis qui est finalement venu me servir a mis beaucoup de temps pour venir au comptoir et s'est adressé à moi comme si j'étais un chien. Inacceptable. De plus, ça fait quelques fois que j'achète des paquets de bacon qui contiennent de la moisissure. Vous venez de perdre un bon client!

(Translated) Very satisfied for the quality of meat received however appalling customer service it gives the impression that they are bothered, except when it is one of their acquaintances who arrives.

François Caron

I had purchased some New York strips a while ago and wasn't impressed. Yesterday, I purchased some pork hocks (pattes de cochon), thinking they were good quality, since they were from a butcher. The meat was rotten. This place is terrible, don't waste your money.
