Always excellent service and meat consistently very good. Rump roast was so good and tender could cut with a fork.

The best in Hamilton for anything Italian, from meat to sweets. Great selection of pasta and olive oil, too.

The veal sandwiches were fantastic. I would recommend the soft bun, peppers and sauce options. The store has a great selection of groceries as well!

This place was absolutely ridiculous. They forced me to sanitize my hands with the most disgusting sanitizer after I expressed that I was allergic to some sanitizers. The lady behind the counter said "You'll be fine". I was not in fact fine as my hand has now developed a rash. I was yelled at multiple times while visiting for not standing in designated spots. The whole time I felt extremely uncomfortable and the workers treated me like a walking virus. Disgusting behaviour in my opinion.

I used to love going to this store however a bit over a year ago I stopped visiting as the covid protocol had made things a far to uncomfortable environment and wow the stench of sanitizers and chemicals was less than appetizing. So today I decided to go to my what was once favorite butcher shop only to find that the protocols have not improved in the slightest, after granting a mother of two access into this "highly quarantined" establishment and standing in the ridiculous designated spot for quite some time maybe 7 to 8 min she was then asked to wait outside again even though she was literally

After extensive research I can proudly say Nardini has THE best veal parmigiana in southern Ontario which likely means all of Canada and possibly North America.

I chose Nardini for its good reputation.I ordered a gift basket for a relative’s special birthday.The basket was a terrible disappointment on several levels.After an email to Nardini, Lisa promptly got in touch offering a solution to the situation.She restored my trust & faith that any problems will be resolved in a quick & satisfying manner.Yes, I would order again because they stand behind their reputation.

Sausages like your Nonno made in the basement in the winter. No filler. No fennel. No fake Italian seasonings. No hipster flavours. These sausages are so good I drive from Toronto to get them. Lasagna is pretty good too but is starting to get expensive.

We love many items at Nardini's - but our favourite is the mild Italian sausage. Nothing else compares!!!

Not only do they have the best meats, their homemade spaghetti sauce (meat and veggie) will blow your mind!! Serve with their homemade meatballs- a match made in heaven!! You couldn't find a better meal in any fine dining Italian restaurant!! I more than highly recommend Nardini's for your shopping needs, and an amazing meal you won't soon forget!!

Thank you for the amazing shopping experience today. I felt safe, and workers are kept safe too. Shopping is organized with only a few in at a time, one per area. Hand sanitizer and gloves required. And of course the sausage and breaded chicken for dinner was amazing. 😀

Best sausages anywhere, not to mention the other high quality fresh meat, coldcuts, and cheeses they offer. Extensive assortment of imported products from Italy. And, the wonderful Nonna Elsa and her delicious hot table! Delicious!

Oh my goodness. I discovered this place through a friend who was hosting a Christmas party. I went to visit for the very first time this past Monday and already am addicted to the variety of dried sausage they have. At the cash register I was speaking with the friendly cashier who recommended they're renowned fresh coils of sausage. I was then offered samples to try them. Needless to say I was hooked line and sinkered. I seem to have spent over $100 in two visits this week. Very very recommended, amazing staff and specialties that I haven't been able to get in terms of quality since raiding my

Only place to get real Italian food, best bread, cold cuts and the selection of products to buy is just like going to a grocery store in Italy , trust me I go all the time

The traditional way to make porchetta is whole hog, not just the belly. Many today don't need that, so they use different cuts like shoulder or loin and belly or even pork leg. Unless you go and buy a pig yourself and do it, this is gonna be the next best thing. Its as authentic as it comes. I've purchased it a bunch of times and they will even cook it for you and slice and tray it and give you the juices in containers separately. This place does it right, you won't find better in our area, don't let foolish reviews sway you...go on in and you'll see why people come from

Wanted to purchase a Porchetta roast. Very rude when questioned why it was made with pork shoulder instead of pork belly. Insisted that's the way it's made traditionally. Nonna would roll in her grave. Would never shop here.

Make your way to the hot table at the back. Their veal on a Calabrese bun is absolutely perfect! I always grab a container of homemade sauce for home too. Oh, their fresh bread selection is amazing too!
