Reviews of Matty Matheson's Meat + Three (Butcher Shop)

Susan Fayez

The food was super flavorful and definitely worth a visit! Highly recommend the mac & cheese and baked beans sides! Only issue was that the food was a little cold. I put in a phone order, arrived a few minutes before my pickup time, and ate in the parking lot, but the pork butt was a little cold. It's honestly understandable, they seemed pretty busy and it must be hard to time preparing all the pickup orders but it did slightly take away from the experience. Very kind staff though, and very much recommend trying this place out :)

All so good!!! Oh my, super yum ribs, brisket, chicken, coleslaw, beans, mac 'n cheese. Again, excellent grub from Matty's crew in Ft Erie. Fried chicken is delish and perfectly complimented with tater tots, mac 'n cheese and slaw. Coleslaw is awesome. If you like pickles, you'll love the coleslaw - made with diced pickles - yum! Matty's BBQ is yummy for the yummy ????

I’ve been coming here since he opened and can’t stop visiting. The food is always perfect! I’ve had everything on the menu and haven’t been disappointed yet. If it’s your first time start with the brisket and don’t forget the corn bread!

Kimberley Thompson

Fish sandwich was good, although a bit bland overall. The batter was nice and crispy, but I just felt that the coleslaw/dressing could have had a bit more oomph. Tater tots were bang on, as usual

gord kelloway

Worth the drive. Best fried chicken I have ever had.

Jess Lavigne

Loved the BBQ items themselves totally worth it. Some of the sides were good but not great like the cucumber salad and the tots. We loved the brisket, fish (wow) and the banana pie! Would eat here again forsure!

We ate brisket + 3 sides were baked beans that were amazing. They had bits of meat mixed in with them. The tater totts were deep fried so crispy. Coleslaw was tasty. A great dip that had a little kick but not hot. Pineapple upside-down cake was great. I normally don't eat dessert but I was hapy I did. Small menu lets them concentrate on quality.

Brendan Rea

The service is excellent, the food is worth the 5-10 minute wait. The portions are a decent size, you will definitely take leftovers home. I would suggest arriving early after they open as things get busy as the day goes on.

Raymond Finnemore

Good lord im coming back for dinner again. ????

Amanda Nothanks

Well, you did it. I finally met a cornbread I like. Thanks guys. Everything was awesome. Mac n cheese, good. Tater tots, good (and crispy!). Brisket, good. Fried chicken, good. Tonight though, the cornbread was the star. It sang me a song filled with jalapenos and dense richness. The brown sugar crust on top was the perfect thing to round it out. I'll be dreaming of this cornbread tonight.

Kevin Violette

Went for the Nashville Chicken sandwich and the Brisket sandwich. Was not disappointed. The chicken sandwich had tons of flavour, and some nice heat, and the Brisket was super tender. Picked up Matty's new cookbook and got it signed. Great chef and super nice guy. Will be back!

Cuong Lieu

Delicious juicy bbq definitely worth the drive to check it out. Don't skip on the dessert, love the pineapple upside down cake.

jordan leal

Drive for 5 hours, we'll worth it. Will do again!

Gary Carr

Best BBQ in Canada. It's an experience. I was blown away by the value. GO!

M G

Mac and cheese was really good. Chicken was bigger than expected, and the brisket sandwich was really tender and tasty. Will come back for sure.

Manoj Narang

Good food, economical but no indoor dining that we saw. That hot food & muggy weather did not help ....

Isaac

Great briscuit. Some of the best creamed corn I've ever had. A bit steep for prices and lean on the meat compared to a Texas BBQ but definitely worth the visit.

Rachel Ko

Was really excited to try this place on a coworker’s recommendation. We had the pork butt sandwich, bbq brisket sandwich; both came with tater tots and some pickles. We also ordered a side of mac n cheese, which was pretty disappointing (in terms of value, $8!) and nothing much different from microwave quality. I will say though, that the sandwiches and tater tots were amazing and definitely worth stopping by in Fort Erie. We walked up to order and did not preorder for curb-side pickup. The wait was not long (5-10 mins) given the circumstances with COVID etc., and the order process was simple and seamless.

Jonathan Martins

Ordered a take out brisket sandwich with tater tots today and was very impressed. Will have to return to try again or other menu options.

Tommy Lassasombath-Erb

Drove all the way up from Toronto and all I can say is WOW. This was definitely worth the trip. Everything in the OG Combo complimented each other very well and it was all super delicious. The smoke & flavour on the brisket and ribs were amazing. Chicken was juicy and crispy. Mac & cheese was cheesy and had that flamin’ hot kick. Coleslaw with pickle was great. Tater tots were crispy and nicely seasoned. Buns were fresh. Spicy pickled veg was a nice touch as well. Also, couldn’t go wrong with the two dipping sauces that came with it. Big 12/10! Thanks for the experience!

Momo Smudja (Smudja03)

This place is amazing. 20min from my house and it's so worth it. The food is amazing. It's pricey but you get a lot of food. I would recommend trying it at least once.

biffnali

Amazing food. All of it. Nashville chicken sandwich is top notch. Definitely worth the trip to Ft. Erie.

Brandon Smith-Scolaro

I have no idea how I just heared about this place. Got some dinner tonight and it's exceptional. The chicken is the best I've ever had, the tater tots were good too. That corn bread though? I'll be dreaming of it for the rest of my life, it's life changing. I literally brought it to bed with me, it's sitting on my end table and I've been nibbling it all night

Robin J

Best tacos and BBQ box ever !

Becky Coles

Can't get enough! We've been hooked since they opened. ????

Sandra Harvey

Friendly, efficient service and some of the best food you'll ever have. The flavour profiles are out of this world. Curbside setup is great - COVID or not, there's something special about eating outdoors at a picnic table.

Matt Cartagena

Food was so tasty! Recommend the pork ribs and mac and cheese. BBQ beans we're good but I can't handle spicy all to well ????

Stephen Firlotte

Best BBQ in the region hand down

Jason Wilson

The Nashville Chicken is one of the best sandwiches I've had in ages. Will go whenever I have the opportunity.

Zach P

Incredible BBQ and worth the ride out to Fort Erie. Portions are quite generous and even though you're there for the mains the sides are scrumptious; especially the loaded taters! The fried chicken is a must have and there's really nothing else comparable in the region in terms of fried chicken. The seasoning adds this zesty kick to the chicken that is delicious. Matty is also a gem! He took photos with use and signed a copy of his cookbook while we were there.

Shan Graszat

Unreal food, very worth the drive. Had the rib combo, which at 21$ seems hefty, has a TON of food. The tator tots were delicious, mac and cheese YUM. Would make the drive out again.

Don Barbero

Absolutely awesome experience! If you are a fan of bbq and looking for quality Smoked meats and slow cooked tenderness, its the place to go! Anything you order there will be a home run, the staff is very warming and offers a great service! Definitely worth the 7 hour drive!

Sean Giberson

Loving the new Cod taco Matty! And the pie, Wow!

Bryce Deathe

One of the best chicken sandwiches I've ever eaten in my life, it was that good.

Vashti Sullivan

What an experience! Simple, comforting, delicious, organized. We've been fans of Matty's for years after finding him on YouTube and often reference him when we are in the kitchen. We were visiting friends in Ontario (from BC) and made the drive for supper Sept 19th. They were equally as excited and we ate far too much. Going Sunday night the desert was all sold out but honestly I was already full after dinner. The best fried chicken I've ever had! One piece was as big as my hand. So juicy and the crust was unreal. The mac and cheese was so addicting. We showed up and had a short wait. Payment and receiving food was well organized and the tables outside were helpful! I already can't wait to come back :)

Smarticle Co

I ordered the BBQ Brisket sandwich the other day and I have 1 word. Fantastic. It was so good. It fell apart in my mouth. The sauces they include are fantastic. You definitely got to eat here.

Scott Catton

Brisket sandwich was excellent. Another slice would have made it look like something you see on the internet. Chicken sandwich was very good. Staff was very friendly and helpful and personable. Great job! Would return.

Blake Priestley

Ordered a few times, the consistency of quality, quantity, and service cannot be beat! You will not be disappointed by this amazing BBQ and sides that have clearly been tweaked to perfection keep up the great work Matty Mathesons Meat and Three!

Ross Allen

Oh...my.....gawd! The brisket is amazing and the beef ribs for Father's Day may have shortened my life but it was so worth it! Divine! Also, ask for extra pickled jalapenos!

Anthony Martinho

As good as it gets. Well worth the day trip to Fort Erie. Hope to be back again!!

Chris Broadley

One word.......Unreal ???? picked up a pork butt dinner and a brisket dinner, and WOW. All the sides were delicious and the brisket you could cut with your fork it was so tender. So many different flavors and the meat is seasoned to perfection. You get a medley of sauces that just make everything even better! Highly recommend this place! The dinners come with 3 sides and is a ton of food for one person so you will definitely be happy. I will be back that's for sure. Well done you guys.....well done!

Dave Drew

So Dave and I made the trip to Fort Erie to try celebrity chef Matty Mathison's Meat plus 3. What we expected was average Barbecue at crazy prices. What we got was the best Barbecue we have ever had at the same prices of other Barecue! Dave had the brisket, thick cut super flavorful butter tender. Not loaded with sauce. My Mom had the Nashville hot chicken. Lots of flaming hot cheetos dust. Crispy and delicious. Maybe to much slaw as the bottom of the bun was very wet. I had the pulled pork not all sauced up because it didn't need it. Moist and great flavour. House made Cheddar Jalapeno sausage, and some great mac and cheese, not to dry not to wet. Loaded with flavour. Covered in flaming hot cheetos dust! I know this is very long but, the Cornbread the banana pudding and the upside down Pineapple cake can't be missed! The Tatter Tots are also great.

J Pruden

Went and ordered the Nashville chicken. And can honestly say it's the best chicken sandwich I've ever had. So much heat and flavour, made me rethink my own existence. Went back the next weekend and got two new orders with the family. This is a must if you're in the area and you like good food.

luca babici

Absolutely loved it and was worth the drive from Toronto. Got the chance to try the fish, pork butt and chicken. Best part? The tater tots and fried fish (awesome batter). Note, both the baked beans and collard greens have meat in them. Had the coffee cake, cherries and vanilla icecream for dessert. Awesome combo! Should note, if you had a long drive, there is no washrooms on site

Cristina U

This is one of the best BBQ places I've been to! All the meat was so good, the sides were amazingly tasty and everything was cooked perfectly. Do yourself a favour and eat here!

Tanja Kristic

Food was great! Ordered several dishes for the family. Chicken and ribs were fantastic. Large portions and shareable

Joanna Barham

Brisket soooo tender. Chicken crispy and tasty. Banana cream pie (this is coming from someone that HATES bananas) delicious. Collared greens solid for being commercially produced.

Melina C

Chicken was no good. Made me sick to my stomach

Jeff Jackson

I first heard about Matty Matheson's Meat + Three from another recent reviewer of this spot, Adrian Brownfield. Adrian purchased a couple of meals on his GF's birthday and ate them at our office in Niagara Falls. The best part was... I got a few bites, LOL. Well I told my wife, Ana, we would go there this weekend and tonight was the night. We actually drove our meals home to Niagara Falls as well, and it was all still hot when we arrived. The first thing you notice when you pull the meal boxes out of the bag is the sheer weight of them. These are some heavy portions! We shared one of each of the chicken and brisket dinners. Already knowing about the awesome sides, we had one meal with the tater tots, mac n' cheese, and the coleslaw. The other had the tots, mac n' cheese, and the baked beans. Well, after taking a few bites from my co-worker's meals at the office, I knew what my wife and I were in for. This is just an explosion of amazing tastes, each with their own distinct flavours. The chicken was fantastic, but the brisket was miles better still. I have never eaten brisket as good as tonight's dinner. The sides were just as good. Best mac n' cheese ever, with the crumbles spicy cheetos on top. So creamy! The tator tots were amazing with the creamy/spicy dipping sauce. The baked beans were also among the best I have ever eaten, with the secret ingredient being the bbq pork - what a taste! The coleslaw was a nice side to at least make you think you were eating healthy, LOL. I especially liked the pickle pieces in the slaw. Another couple of nice touches were the spicy bbq sauce and the two juicy hot peppers that garnished each meal. In a nutshell, I would recommend eating a meal at Matty Matheson's Meat + Three as soon as you can. I am already looking forward to our next visit. Enjoy!

Paul Herron

I visit this place at least two time a month. I would probably visit more if i lived in the niagara region.

Drew McIntyre

Incredible flavour. Can't wait to go back. So so Good.

Mike W

I really can’t get enough of this place! Absolutely worth the hour-long drive from Mississauga. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable, the food is delicious and portions will never leave you hungry. It’s located right across from the Canada-US border with plenty of parks nearby to enjoy your lunch/dinner and they also have a covered seating area in their parking lot.

Tim Glutek

Worth the drive from Niagara to Fort Erie. Best to pre-order as this is a popular barbecue spot. No indoor dining but they do have picnic tables for outside eating. They have awesome ribs on Sundays. Their brisket is the tender out and juiciest that we have ever had. Only mistake that I did was only getting a 1/2 lb of great brisket with I will not do that again.

Adrian Brownfield

Ordered the BBQ Brisket and the Nashville Hot Chicken. The Brisket was cooked perfectly and tasted amazing. The Mac and Cheese was actually very good as well. Mac and Cheese is not always good even tho it's simple, it's usually just a blah loaf of elbow noodles lol. Tots were crispy and complimented the dish nice. Now for the Nashville chicken...ITS THE BEST CHICKEN SANDWICH I EVER ATE. Crispy. Hot. Bun nice and soft. Simply put this place is a gem and I'm very happy to come back again and again. Thank you for the great service. 11/10.

Denise Mehlenbacher

We go now almost every week, awsome food to melt in your mouth...

Ljubica D

Soooo good!! Go here. Give the man your money. Eat this food.

Morgan Piczak

WOW! Everything was amazing! We grabbed brisket, ribs, fried chicken and sides to go and had a picnic on the beach. Do not skip this spot! We even met Matty!

Selina Liu

My boyfriend has known about Matty for years, and was beyond excited when he finally opened his own place. We ordered the pork butt, brisket, and two piece of fried chicken meal. Everything we got was amazing! I recommend if anybody is near the area or passing by to stop by here right away and grab as much food as you can!

Phillip Mcguire

Great chicken, sides are great. I like a bit more smoke on my brisket.

Ryan Elliott Galvin

Very tasty and quite reasonably priced. We had Nashville & brisket sandwiches with waffle fries.

Curtis Bader

hands down some of the best food I've ever tasted.

Richard Kicul

Amazing food and service and always ready on time!

Sarks Maz

Awesome bbq. Great food

Andrew H

Two visits thus far. Visit 1 was 1lb brisket and fried chicken with Mac and cheese. Mac and cheese tasty but pasta over cooked and too mushy for our liking. Brisket delicious. We are white meat chicken eaters so we didn't enjoy chicken as they only serve thighs and drums. Visit 2 we did 1 lb brisket and ribs with side of beans. Won't get the beans again. Ribs good, tender. Sauce is sweet so use the dipping sauce they offer to spice up the sauce. We'll get the ribs again. Brisket delicious again. See you soon!

Jesse

100% worth the drive from Toronto! Such a chill and friendly staff and the best brisket I've ever had. Amazing sides and the desserts were bombbbb too! We ate outside on the picnic tables and the cold weather did not bother us because the food was so damn good. Arrive on an empty stomach and you will not be disappointed. Thank you guys for the awesome experience!!

Brent Hickey

What more can I say, it's the best BBQ place you're gonna find in the Niagara region. The brisket and pulled pork is amazing, and those beeeaaaans, so good!

Josh W

Made the trip from Toronto and we weren’t disappointed. Every bite was amazing. We ordered the hot chicken sandwich, Mac and cheese, brisket and fries, all 5/5. Great BBQ and a nice town to visit. I only wish it was closer.

Cameron Blakey

Was busy but line moved at a decent pace and the food was worth it. We also ended up winning "The Golden Ticket" prize which was the icing on an already great experience.

Max DeNardis

Second time driving in from Brampton...brisket and chicken were amazing. Got all 6 sides - all flat out delicious, special shout out to the creamed corn. The life changer? That goddam Banana Pudding. I want a bathtub full of that s**t!

Karen Biancaniello

Food was excellent, good quality, clean eating area proper protocols in place
