Outstanding experience with Butcher on the Block. I'm in the meat business with upscale customers in the Los Angeles area. My best friend's favorite cut of meat is a dry aged bone-in rib-eye. The only place near her who carried that cut was Butcher on the Block. They were actually recommended by another butcher in the area. I wanted two steaks delivered to my friend for Christmas.Dana handled my request. The steaks were fabulous and my friend will definitely be paying them a visit soon.

Stopped out to BOTB in Algonquin after seeing it on social media. This local, small business butcher offers EVERYTHING: poultry, red meat, sausage, brats, pasta/pasta sauces, deli, house made salads/sides, sandwiches to go, and more! I was very impressed with the prices as well. When at the butcher counter, they have more meat in the back or can possibly make something fresh if they're out. The deli also gave us samples of the salads to try before purchasing. Staff was very nice and almost everyone working said hello to us. I will certainly be back to try more of their offerings; check this out if ever in the area!

Everything here is always amazing no matter how packed it is. They're so fast so efficient I can't help but stop by every weekend.

I do not recommend the Philly. The steak isn't even chopped up. It's just little strips of unsalted ribeye. I ate a quarter of it and threw the rest out. I don't like posting bad reviews, but if it helps someone not be disappointed and not waste money, then it's worth it.

Service was amazing ! My husband & I are always up for experimenting with different foods & recipes. We were excited due to the fact that we were FINALLY going to try cow tongue...and we were not disappointed.We (I say "we" but honestly my husband did all of the prep & cooking) did a load of roasted vegetables & it was delicious. I'm not sure what I was expecting, but the tongue tasted exactly like a beef roast. Two thumbs up! Thanks Butcher on the Block!

AMAZING products and service! Although the meat counter is small, they somehow make it work with the line of customers and number of options to choose from. I have special ordered prime ribs and gotten some great tips from the employees, which have always been spot on when implanting their suggestions. Highly, highly recommend!!

Helped at the meat counter by a relatively young kid I asked for three filet mignon. Unseen by me they were selected and wrapped. It wasn't until I got home that I realized my cook was going to go a little different for one of them. He should have asked me if I wanted this.

Every time my husband and I go here, it feels like a treat. We walk out with way more than we intended. If your husband likes to smoke meats, this will be his new favorite place. Their deli counter is amazing too. Service is great and very accommodating. They will keep things on hold for you and you should definitely subscribe to a list of their specials.

I've missed having at least a good butcher after moving to McHenry County years ago. I still had lots of reasons to go back to Buffalo Grove & Chicago. Ever since Butcher on the Block opened, I haven't had a need to go any further since their doors opened. A forever loyal customer
