Boucherie Lawrence — Local services in Montreal

Great place and super friendly. I admittedly do not know much about the different cuts of meat, and was helped by their staff who obviously knew their stuff with no judgement. I cannot say enough how great those who helped me were.

They had a superb selection of sausages that I wish I’d taken advantage of, but this day was for the steak. I did a simple salt and pepper crust for the meat we got and it was delicious. No sauce needed for this superb cut.
