Barons Quality Meats & Seafood

My friend got cuts of buvette steak here and threw them on a grill -- and they were unforgettable. The quality of the meat was A+ and as a guest, I felt like it was such a treat. One of those meals you have to ask the host for all their secrets. Sounds like sourcing quality meats from Barons is the key! Excited to check this out myself one day.

Friendly staff, great ambiance, love the selection of beverages available as well. It's a bit expensive but high quality, so to be expected!

Eh, my experience was sub-optimal. Showed up one morning for my first visit, didn't realize they open at noon. No prob! Went to run some other errands and come back.Arrived about ten before opening, still locked up of course. Other customers started collecting in front ahead of opening. Almost ten minutes past noon we could see the butchers inside doing their thing. Someone pulled on the door and they had unlocked it without a word or glance of acknowledgment to the six of us waiting. We all laughed and went in (except for the three customers who left in exasperation). The two butchers immediately pounced together to help the same attractive woman and disregard the rest of the customers despite her purchase being one small thing. She got the attentive service the rest of us were anticipating.The pot roast I'd come to shop for was not the best. There was just one and it was not at all fresh - in fact, it was pretty gray. We went to Whole Foods and got a really beautiful one for $3/pound less and saved over ten bucks!Between the quality and the staff, I won't bother them again.

These guys are A+. Seriously one of the best butcher shops in SF and the nicest guys around

I love this shop. It is very high quality and I've always gotten excellent service. I recommend this shop!

Barons really delivers qualityIt was my first time at this place and I'm so impressed! Their varieties and selections are awesome. They have many unique brands and they all seem quality! I wanted to check out each and every item because they are like a mini farmers market. They are so friendly too, definitely a gem in the neighborhood! Their prosciutto was on Point! The balance on fat and it doesn't have the frozen/porky taste that I often find at grocery store brands. I'll need to try more items from them!

I used to love this place - high quality meat, clean, great service. It's in my neighborhood so it used to be my go to whenever I needed a steak.Went there yesterday and had such a horrible customer experience that I'm never going back. A thin guy with long gel'ed up hair and a goatee was there when I walked in. The doors were open but the lights were off. I asked if they were open, he said simply no, with a frown, without telling me when they would be open. I asked when they opened, he said 11. It was 10:50 so I was a bit early. No big deal, I came back 10 minutes later.I return at 11 and wait in line, someone else is already there. Someone else enters and enters the line behind me. The thin goateed guy then comes up and asks this new person what they want, ignoring me. The other person kindly tells him I was here and the thin goateed guy reluctantly, with a frown, turns to me. I tell him what I want and he sort of slaps the meat onto the paper, then wraps it very carelessly, not really folding the paper well just sort of crumpling it around the meat, and slaps labels on the paper. The label on one of the packets doesn't stick and the paper opens. He does nothing, he just moves it to the cashier counter.Meanwhile my daughter is complaining about the smell and has to go outside. The floor looks unclean as well. I notice that the store is a lot less clean than it used to be.As this thin goateed guy rings me up he tells the other employee to do some tasks. Is this guy the manager? I can't believe it. Some of the worst customer service I have ever experienced. He seems hung over or something, just tired and in a bad mood. If he is in fact the manager, no wonder the place smells and is dirty now. He clearly does not want to be there.Well, that makes two of us. I'll give my business to Golden Gate Meat Company in the Ferry Building or Guerra's in Sunset instead, they both have much better service, they don't smell, and the prices are the same.Whoever the owner of this store is, you probably should have a talk with this guy. He was there at 11am Saturday morning Feb 27.

HOLY S%#+The Black Dragon seasoning on the tri tip in their cooler is phenomenal. High quality seasoning too, you can tell because usually stuff from Trader Joe's or Cosco makes your stomach hurt but this was so delicious the neighbor asked what I was grilling through the fence! Seared both sides for 3 minutes then turned down the heat to 400 for 15 to cook. I will be back for some more! Also everything in this store is high quality at a decent (market) price. Even with inflation and what not. Thanks ya'll. You've got a new customer!

Amazing quality meats! Never have been let down in terms of their selection and their vast amount of options but, when it comes to customer service, in my opinion, need to be a little bit more personable. I was a seafood monger in Menlo Park for an amazing family owned business called Cooks Seafood. If you want amazing customer service for a butchery, that should be what all butcheries aim for when it comes to being personable and quite Frank, learning to be a people person. Barons butchers are highly qualified on the meat side but lack the people skills department. Nonetheless, amazing meat. I guess now a days, no one believes in talking to people. The covid era of customer service is becoming an epidemic

I am waiting in line to get in. I appreciate they have senior hours from 11am- noon. I definitely appreciate it. But couple of things. I just saw someone 1/2 my age walk out. When i tried to walk in maybe i wasn't good looking enough to break the rules. I tried to walk in after she left and they all basically scolded me for trying to come in lol I definitely won't be coming back here. First and last time. Treat everyone the same. Perhaps the meat is good. I'm going to try it because i drove all the way from the peninsula but your employees need to treat everyone the same. Just because you're cute and young and female doesn't mean you should be able to shop here during hours specific for the seniorsSENIOR HOURS ARE SENIOR HOURS sign didn't say "at risk hours". Nice way to try and make a come back.OH ALSO YOU ARE WELCOME. I just spent over $100 at your establishment and you come off without even a THANK YOU for trying my spot. We're sorry you felt this way. Yah. You definitely won't get any more of my coins.
