The Butchers Son

Love this place! I went here one time after a gig and have been dying to try them for a while! I had their mozzarella sticks, chick'n Caesar sandwich, and cannoli. All were out of this world incredible! The only gripe with this place is the parking, as it can be a challenge, but there are spots nearby, so prepare to walk.Other than that, great place. They also do holiday meals and I love their Shepherds pie and stuffing!

Came back to the Butchers son with my roommate during Saturday Brunch. They had the patio open so which there were a lot of people, the store was not crowded and it was easy to find a seat. So you order before you sit (which I prefer) and then grab your own water/coffee (which is included in your meal and comes with oat, soy milk, or no milk). Every thing aside from bringing out the food is pretty self serve.We went for the Philly style steak sandwich and the egg and steak hoagie. Both seem to use something like Seitan (but I'm not sure) for their meat. The portions of these two were huge and the one issue I have is that you get full super fast but also hungry really fast. Doesn't seem like enough protein to keep you satiated for long. Well good thing the portions are large so you can save for later.I think the chopped cheese was better than the egg and steak because of the lettuce and tomato adding a nice crunch/freshness (in my opinion that could add some more). It also has a very creamy sauce.The tofu scramble on the egg and steak was ok but not my favorite. It didn't stay in the sandwich and was quite messy but overall not too bad flavor wise.Of course where they shine is their fake meats and I thought bought were super tasty and realistic!

It's great to have established vegan options.Wish that the menu item names reflected non-meat nature, rather than being called by the same name as their animal-product-containing counterparts. For example, the Ruben sandwich or ricotta cheese.Note to self (and others) : eat the food in the restaurant when it's piping hot.Our selections did not fare well when we got it to-go. Once cooled down, it lost its appeal, even rewarmed in an air-fryer. Textures and flavors changed for the worse.The woman who took our order was a superb performer!

Such an amazing spot! I'm not vegan but if I'm ever in the area I will come by this place for lunch because everything is so delicious! Our server was super friendly and even came to check in on us later even though we were sitting far out in their courtyard in the back of the shop. The outdoor seating area is so cute and has rose bushes and a very nice vibe to it. Everything is vegan but you wouldn't know by the taste of it, everything is prepared so perfectly and it's not anymore expensive than any other restaurants in the area. Love this place!

I'm not Vegan, but my friend is. She always takes me to great places that would make me consider converting into one. This places was GREAT. The host she was so sweet and welcoming. The food was delicious. We split a bacon cheeseburger and a pancake with a donut in it. I honestly couldn't tell that I wasn't eating real beef and bacon. It tasted like the real thing. I visit Berkeley pretty often and will be adding them to my door dash for sure! Love this place!

Can't believe it's been that long since last review. Not much had changed with the overall establishment. Killer Blat was chicken mostly, pulled high with lettuce tomato and peppers on toasted bread with avocado spread. Hard to find the bacon and flavor but still pretty decent. Messy to deal with and high stacked for small mouths. Somehow managed to plow through.Add on fries w with crispy and thin the way I like.Don't skip the pickle, free on request. A real deli style pickle, crunchy and sour.Nice and quiet since it was a late 3pm lunch. Quick service and friendly greeting.

Yes. Yes. Yes. HUGE fan of everything The Butcher's Son makes! The jalapeño business is one of my all time favorite sandwiches. I recently tried their house made New York Cheesecake and was blown away by how authentic and delicious it was. All their sides are amazing as well. You really can't go wrong with anything on the menu!

The vegan chicken was rubbery awfulThe actual ingredients are good but the vegan meat is rubbery the fried chicken

Checked out The Butcher's Son after having heard about it and us being in the area for Bizerkeley Food Fest. We escaped the lines to find a good meal and they absolutely did not disappoint.Their sandwich selection here was incredibly extensive that it made it hard to choose. I ultimately with their Fried Chicken Caesar with Garlic Fries ($20) and had a humongous, crispy plant-based chicken sandwich with all the salad's fixings you could ask for. The sandwich was so big that I ended up saving 1/3 of it for dinner and I sit here still feeling pretty full.My friend's also enjoyed their two sandwiches - one got the BLAT and another a Chicken Bagel Sandwich. Oh, and the free coffee and water stations were both nice touches to include.Slightly knocking off a star only because I noticed the amount of garlic fries I got was not a lot when I scroll through pics from earlier this year - man, people's plates were JAMMED with fries but mine pale in comparison lol. They're still good though!
