Customer Reviews Summary
De Giorgio's Butchers is a popular choice for meat lovers in the North East. Most customers praise the quality of the meat and the friendly staff, with many customers appreciating the variety of products available, including air-dried steaks, pies, and artisan products. The staff are described as knowledgeable and helpful, and the shop's commitment to sourcing local ingredients is a bonus for some customers. A few customers mention that the prices are slightly higher than average, but most agree that the quality justifies the cost.
However, a couple of customers had less positive experiences. One reviewer was disappointed with the dry-aged sirloin steak, finding it not as dry as expected and bloody, and felt it was overpriced compared to Marks & Spencer. Another reviewer had an issue with being overcharged for lamb fat and trim and felt the butcher was trying to rip them off.
