G & S Salumeria & Pork Store

I kind of wish I lived here. We rode down from lefferts gardens to try out some sandwiches. Best roast beef ever. Their heroes are huge and a large could easily feed 2 people. The sesame baguette was amazing as well. We also tried a spinach and prosciutto ball which were both delicious– they warmed them up. Reasonable prices. The guy was so nice who helped us as well. Only wish I was Italian so I could know what everything is or have someone explain what I should try. Want to go back. If i had a car/​lived closer I would def use this place as my butcher.

What does G & S stand for?
Genuine & Spectacular: maybe so. The food here is very authentic Italian grocery store food, including amazing Prosciutto Balls and fantastic, enormous sandwiches.
What to get: Prosciutto Balls, Sandwiches, Anything.
What else: Yes sir, I can boogie.
Garland says: I’m glad Gilbert & Sullivan opened this place.
A lovely little Italian store that were always lovely to me and my girlfriend and extremely underrated, too. Right by the Verrazano Narrows Bridge. I know it’s «narrow-​minded» for me to say this is the best Italian deli in town, but it’s right up there.
Gamey & Suspect: definitely not. They don’t sell all of the weird meats that New Yorkers seem to be into these days. They’re all about the traditional Italian goodies.
Do yourself a favor. Try their dirt cheap Prosciutto Balls and get yourself a sandwich here. It’s some of the best stuff you’ll eat in Brooklyn. Absolutely wonderful delicious eats.
Golden & Showers: I would hope not. But honestly, if your balls (I mean Prosciutto Balls) are this delicious, then I don’t mind what you do with them. Yes, even that. Just not on me, please. Some people like that. I’m not really into it.

The meat at this place is always fresh they treat you nice and like family. My favorite is the pin wheels. The shop is always kept clean. Every time I visit this place it seems the workers are always putting out something fresh.

I married into an Italian family, and then found this place. The staff is great — quick — professional and friendly… love the way they slice the meats so deli-​thin! Dried sausages are fantastic! Rice balls are so creamy and good. The owner has always had time to answer questions and help me decide what to order. I don’t have anything bad to say about this place… except that the wait on-​line can be a while.

The employees handle food with their bare hands and do not wear hats. The proprietor cheats his customers.

Kinda pricey, but he food is pretty good.

oh my god I just had the best hero ever, got the American combo with four meats and Munster cheese, on a fresh Italian hero, it was delicious, and huge for only 8 bucks, it beats subway any day, the smaller one is six
I cant wait to try the other things they offer, like the rice balls, antipasto and macaroni salads, nice variety of meats and olives, chicken cutlets, cheesy pastas, ill definitely be back here! and the staff is so friendly

The staff is always accommodating and if you’re not sure which product to buy, they’re willing to give you a piece to try.
I would give them 5 stars, but I ordered a prosciutto ball once and found a piece of blue plastic inside … Gross!!!

This is the only butcher that I will ever use. They know you by name and know exactly what you like and how you like it. Everything is always fresh and top notch. The cold cuts are amazing and their sandwiches and prepared salads and dishes are delish. I could go on all day about how amazing they are. Really your old school neighborhood pork store with the highest quality products ever!!!

This is hands-​down the best sandwich I have ever had. These guys know way they are doing. And their pinwheel sausage is my ticket to «cooking» for the carnivores in my family. Friendly service, quality food. They are the best!

Meat Meat and more meat.
I love this place I come here for all my meat needs. The guys there are always friendly and helpful. I go in for one or two things, but always leave with four or five different cuts of meat. The meats are always fresh and always good. The only problem lies in how much you can eat.
They also do deli sandwiches right, with lots of quality cold cut meats and vegies the way you want it. Be prepared to wait on line if you come during their busy time but the wait is always well worth it.

What to say about This place? Their cuts of meat are out of this world good. I got the filet mignon, bought it home, threw it on the grill, and it was most likely the most buttery delicious steak I’ve ever had. I would definitely come back here!

I’m so lucky to live 2 blocks away from this place. Everything here is delicious. Cold cuts and cheeses are fresh and tasty. Sandwiches, salads, olives, appetizers — always on point. We get a lot of meat here in the summer for barbecuing. Skirt steak marinated in teriyaki sauce is delicious, as well as the burger patties. So glad to have such high quality food in the neighborhood!

Best prescuitto and provolone and the neighboehood! They have fantastic hot food and other delicious eats. Worth the stop for some great table fillers.

I ordered the 3 foot Italian hero and I was very very impressed. The sandwich had so many delicious sliced meats, cheese, sweet peppers and i think some type of vinaigrette which made the bread soggy and delicious. It was so satisfying, everyone at my gathering loved it, they all had seconds and i still have some left in my fridge.
The quality was pretty great and it came with some sides and eating utensils, highly recommended sandwich!

Wow. Do Manhattan dwellers ever consider going to Brooklyn to do their weekly grocery shopping? Because after a chance encounter with G&S, I am. Yes I’m a fanatical carnivore, so I was basically sold as soon as I saw the words «Pork Store,» (ana asif/​ani mitzta’er, my Muslim/​Jewish compatriots) but this place is much more than a paradise of prosciutto. I came in hoping to have a quick lunch, and instead, I had an amazing hero and wasted twenty minutes eating the rest of the place with my eyes. Damn my love of cooking Italian food, damn it to hell. I’ll be back: you can’t escape my pan forever, gorgeously marbled ribeye.

My family and I have been coming here for YEARS and it wouldn’t be a Sunday morning if one of us weren’t waiting on line to get cold cuts, salads, or other daily specials to tie us over for the week.
Eddie and his staff are wonderful at what they do; it’s not easy making a sandwich look so seductive and tantalizing that you’d rather eat it on the way home then wait until later.
Ask to have your cold cuts thin and you know what? They do it!
Ask them to let you know how fresh the veal is? They give you that look that says, «I made it with my blood, sweat, and tears; do you want three?»
Ask them to let you try that new oven gold turkey? They cut you a piece!
Sandwiches are LOADED with anything you’d like! Our family staples are:
— eggplant, roasted peppers, and fresh mozzarella on a roll
— chicken cutlet with roasted peppers, fresh mozzarella on a roll
or the latest vegetarian craze that my Mom invented:
–mozzarella cheese with lettuce, tomato, onions, and balsamic vinegar… amazing!
Come just to press your face against the salad window and try a little of everything; it was made with love and tenderness!

Tried this place for the first time today. I had unexpected company and it was way too hot to cook, and this place was a lifesaver.
Pros:
*They will make a 2 foot hero. Most places will make only a 3 or 6ft. and depending on the size of your group 3 ft. might be too much.
*They deliver!
*They were willing to take a last minute hero offer the same day.
*Good food. We had the Italian hero which had prociutto, ham, mortadella, salami, pepperoni and cheese with lettuce and tomato, oil and vinegar. Excellent tasting and nicely sliced and displayed on a covered aluminum tray. We also ordered chickpea salad, tortellini salad and antipasto salad (these were solid but nothing spectacular, I still miss the amazing pasta salads from the now closed Tre Fratelli). Overall the food was tasty.
*They were right on time when I requested a 1pm delivery and they called just before they arrived.
*Very affordable. We had tons and tons of food for $ 50.
This wasn’t really a «con» for me because I had this delivered to my home but if you are having things delivered to your workplace be aware that they do not provide plastic cutlery as some delis do.
Overall I was quite pleased with the food and service and will definitely patronize them again. They have fresh meats, steaks and such and I can’t wait to try them. I hope this place can survive, with Tre Fratelli and Vito’s Bakery closing I wonder if there is any demand for Italian foods in this area anymore.

Very friendly owner and extremely helpful. Bought some dry-​aged ribeye for $ 16/​lbs. Can’t wait to try it!

I’m pleasantly surprised that I didn’t find G & S Salumeria Pork Store earlier, despite having lived in my current area for 20 years!
There aren’t enough good things I can say about this establishment. For starters, this place provides all the essential items one would need when seeking to make a fine Italian Meal.

Here’s a quality review of the items purchased during prior visits…
Porterhouse Steak (28oz): The Porterhouse had a pleasant shade of pink to denote perfect quality and integrity of the meat. In addition, the abundance of marbling throughout the steak was evidence of the USDA Prime label given to this cut of meat. The Porterhouse was prepared using an 800 degree broiler for 6 minutes on each side, with no seasoning or sauce. At first bite, it was evident that the dry aging process and abundance of marbling gave the Porterhouse the perfect balance of fat and protein required for a great piece of steak.
Fresh Mozzarella: I found the cheese to lack the proper firmness that’s evident in well pressed Fresh Mozzarella. When cutting into the cheese, it was evident that the water distribution within the cheese was overly present. Nevertheless, after slicing, draining, and layering with paper towels, the cheese was ready for consumption. The taste of the Fresh Mozzarella was very much appealing. Although Di Palo’s and D. Colucci’s & Sons creates a far more superior product, the Fresh Mozzarella of G & S was surprisingly welcoming and provided the perfect texture of what’s required in a Fresh Mozzarella. The clean /​fresh taste of the cheese is better than any that can be obtained within a 2 mile radius.
Proscuitto di Parma: Needless to say, the storage quality of this meat is integral to the taste of the product. The Proscuitto is stored in a temperature controlled environment (along with other refrigerated cured meats) to preserve the composition of the meat. The taste of the Proscuitto was as expected. A nice balance of fat as well as a slight firmness is the essence in the body of a good Proscuitto. In addition, the salt used in the curing process did not hinder the balance and integrity of the product.
It is without any doubt that I’ll be visiting G & S Salumeria more often during my next Italian Meal Creation. After all, a hike to Manhattan takes about 45 minutes, but a walk to G & S… A good 5 minutes at most.
