In business for more than 30 years on the same block in the same Williamsburg neighborhood, Mario Zollo and his family, including nephew Girardo, sell prime meats, game and poultry from their old-fashioned Italian butcher shop.
What's great:
In the tradition of European butcher shops, Mario's has a chill room where the meats are kept and then each order is cut to the customer's preference. Their prices are very competitive and the quality is tops.
What to know:
They also sell eggs, fresh mozzarella cheese, and a modest selection of imported Italian grocery items. They have free delivery to the neighborhood; call for details.
