Italo A&S Fine Foods

After calling 3 stores for veal shanks, I posted on FB and so many people said Italo on Forest was the BEST butcher. THEY WERE RIGHT! I made osso buco with the spectacular pieces Italo gave me. He showed me the meat, even offered tips to make the osso buco. He was incredibly nice and knowledgable. The store is awesome and convenient to central SI and worth the trip for south shore residents. I love Italy A&S!

Great food and great hospitality!

New Management! Great Store.

Under new management as of March 2014, great place now. Everything is fresh and delicious. Highly recommend.

Very Disappointed

I had heard so much about the great food at A&S that I finally decided to give it a try. I went in with my daughter and the counterman was helping a police officer with an order. There were 4 or 5 other guys standing in the corner behind the counter who never acknowledged us. The counterman who was helping the officer finished up his order and he too never acknowledged us and quickly began helping someone who walked in way after us. I told my daughter, let’s go, obviously no one wants to help us. The guys in the corner watched us go without ever saying a word.

We then went to our usual Italian spot and got all of out items for a great sausage dinner.

Needless to say I will never set foot in A&S Pork Store ever again. I really could care less how many people rave about them. I guess they are busy enough and don’t need any new customers.

Truly disappointed and disgusted!!
