Here, cuts of meat are expertly selected, cut and branded. Dry-age coolers and pink Himalayan salt brick walls enhance the aging experience, which occurs between 21 days to 28 days for extra tender and flavorful steaks.
In addition to serving the kitchen, the butcher shop serves as a retail store, and guests can take home cuts like New York strip, porterhouse, rib-eye and bone-in filet. They's also created butcher box special packages featuring a variety of meat to take the average dinner parties up a notch.
The menu is chockful of offerings beyond steak. There's a raw bar of delights, plus red snapper with lobster & sausage cassoulet, roasted chicken, seared scallops and more.
