The Chop Shop - Bradenton

The meats, fish, and deli at this restaurant are of excellent quality. The customer service is also top-notch. I am happy I discovered this place and will definitely continue shopping here. It is definitely worth it.

I am a regular customer at the chop shop. Their meat selection is always excellent and top quality. However, I was disappointed yesterday when I saw a customer ahead of me in line receive a free insulated bag for being a first-time customer, while I was denied when I asked for one. The cashier and her assistant were not very friendly towards me, despite my 20+ years of loyalty. I spent $199 during my visit, which is not unusual for me. I believe that loyal customers should also receive perks, just like first-time customers. I was very surprised and disappointed by the cashier's reaction and even asked to speak to the manager, but there was no manager available in the store. I believe this is a bad business practice and that loyal customers deserve to be appreciated as well.

While on vacation for the week, we stumbled upon The Chop Shop and boy, did we discover a gem! This family-owned butcher shop is truly fantastic. I hope all you locals realize the treasure you have right in your backyard. You won't find this level of quality at the big corporate grocery stores. We treated ourselves to steaks for 9 people, along with potatoes, asparagus, bread, and even a delicious garlic compound butter. We also ordered a deli sandwich to hold us over until dinner. All of this came out to roughly $170, which is a steal compared to high-end steak houses. We had 6 NY strips and 4 fillets for that price. All you need is salt and fresh cracked pepper on a hot grill to really enjoy these cuts. Trust me, after a few bites, you'll already be planning your next visit to The Chop Shop.

I stop here every Saturday. Everything is so good here. Service is great, workers are friendly, nice selection of meats, and they have neal specials too.

I have been going to the Chop Shop for over 20 years. The service is always friendly and professional and all the meats are the best in the area. If your lucky enough to go in and they have their homemade beef jerky, you have to try it !!!!!
