0☆ WARNING: This Meat Market is Selling Contaminated, Inedible Halal Meat – DO NOT SHOP HERE

This business used to be trustworthy. It is no longer safe to buy meat here. I’m writing this to warn the community because I would never want another family to go through what mine did.

I bought ground beef here twice, and both times it was filled with sharp bone fragments, cartilage, and hard tissue — completely inedible and potentially dangerous. My wife immediately spit it out, and we had to trash the entire dish. It made her feel physically ill, and I was shocked this could even be sold as food.

Still, I gave them the benefit of the doubt. I went back to calmly explain the issue, and I was met by the owner yelling, refusing to take responsibility, and threatening to sue me just because I brought the meat back. He told me he didn’t owe me a refund and seemed to care more about his pride than our health.

Let me be very clear: This is NOT just bad service — this is a health hazard. If you care about what you feed your family, stay away from this store. The meat quality is beyond poor — it is unfit for human consumption.

What kind of Halal butcher knowingly sells meat filled with bone shards? What kind of owner responds with threats instead of concern when told his product made someone sick?

I will never return, and I am urging everyone in my network and community to stop supporting this business immediately. If they won’t care for their customers, they don’t deserve customers.

Unsafe. Rude. Disrespectful. Possibly dangerous. This store has lost our trust forever. Many blessings to all who encounter this place put In the community to put dis ease in the body of people...

Unfortunately, in this day and age anonymous individuals can go to social media and add their “scarlet A” and spread derogatory statements and misinformation about individuals and/or small businesses in order to inflict harm on their livelihoods. It isn’t simply a matter of “he said she said”. All too often, there are underlying political, religious or even racial reasons for publicly posting such comments. I have been frequenting Halal Market and Meats for over two decades and I’ve always been satisfied by their superior efforts in providing high quality products and conscientious service. I seriously question the integrity of an individual that goes online and posts a one star review in order to encourage others to shun a small, family-run establishment. I think there are much more important bones to pick with powerful corporations and...

This shop definitely carries the best quality meat in town with a wide range of options. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for quality halal meat and great service. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. They always take the time to explain different cuts and even offer great cooking tips when you ask.
