“Before Minore’s Meats, I was running all over sourcing products. They gave me back my time—now I can focus on growing my business and spending time with my family. I manage two locations and am building a third. What I thought I was saving by going elsewhere ended up costing me more. Time is valuable—and Minore’s gets that.”
— Multi-Location Restaurant Owner
“I’ve worked with Minore’s for over 12 years. What started as a price-driven decision turned into a partnership based on outstanding service. They now supply 60% of my fresh meats, produce, dairy, and more. If there’s ever an issue, they takes care of it right away.”
— Italian Restaurant Owner
“I run a mid-size American restaurant. At first, I was juggling multiple big distributors who didn’t really care about my business. Minore’s no-nonsense approach and fair pricing changed everything. With Minore’s, I’m not just a number—I’m treated like a valued partner.”
— American Restaurant Operator
“I own two large steakhouses. Bill created a custom pricing structure and stocked the products I needed, helping me manage inventory across locations. During the pandemic, their personal service helped us stay afloat. Minore’s is competitive on price, but their service is what truly sets them apart.”
— Steakhouse Owner
“I’ve owned my restaurant for 11 years and am building a second. Big distributors made me feel like just a number. Bill and Minore’s Meats offered fair pricing and incredible service. Seven years later, I still rely on them. If only everyone cared as much as they do!”
— Growing Restaurant Brand
“Minore’s Meats has consistently been meeting our meat needs in terms of quality and price. They make ordering and delivery very simple for our supermarket. We’ve been happy customers since 2022 and highly recommend them!”
— Supermarket Client
“We’ve been working with Minore’s for over three years, and the experience has been outstanding from day one. The meat is always high-quality, the pricing is competitive, and we’ve never had a single issue with the products. What truly stands out is the customer service — whenever we’re running low on supplies, even if we forget to place an order, they personally deliver what we need without hesitation. That level of reliability and care is rare. We currently run two restaurant locations and rely on Minore’s Meats for both. We’re excited to continue working with them for our third location. Highly recommended!”

I am Executive Chef at an independently owned and operated restaurant in Stratford. I have been in the restaurant business for 45 years.
I have used both large and small foodservice distributors in my career.
I have found Minore’s Meats to be very good, their prices are very competitive and, in some cases, “blow others out of the water.”
Their service is exemplary, and deliveries are very consistent.
I recommend them to all my peers
— Executive Chef
I own a Korean restaurant and Bill has been a great help from the start. Bill has always provided me with good quality products, but most importantly at a great price. After getting good products from Minore’s Meat, I was able to cut down from a large list of suppliers which made my life a lot easier as well.
I have been getting products from Minore’s for five years now, and I rarely experience issues with my items.
Bill is one of the sweetest and patient guy I know. He has made running my restaurant a lot easier.
Thank you Bill and Minore’s Meats
— Restaurant Owner
“Minore’s has been an incredible part of our team in Ansonia for a few months now. Getting to work directly with Bill makes our ordering process incredibly easy and efficient.
Bill is not just another salesman, he cares about the success of our business and goes above and beyond to help us with everything we could ever need. Bill is knowledgeable about the products Minore’s carries and if there is something that they don’t carry, they will special order it
for us. We truly are so grateful that a company like Minore’s is a part of our journey, as they are personable, thorough, and efficient. We highly recommend using Minore’s services.”
— Restaurant Client
“Minore’s has become a crucial part of how we do business. When we first gave them a
try we were promised high quality meat and excellent service. My customers always
come back and comment on how fresh and tasty the meat is. Minore’s provides a
special service which is hands-on and personable.
They understand how important it is for us to receive everything that we order on the day of delivery. I can say with certainty
that they have made life easier for my wife and I in the way that we run our business.”
— Restaurant Client
“I started purchasing with Minore’s 15 years ago. The salesman (Amin) assured me that
he would have top quality meat and that he would meet all my business needs. I
appreciate how attentive the service is, that I receive, from Minore’s and Amin. They
really know their customers and have the best products and service.”
— Restaurant Client
“In 2010 I was working for Pague Menos, a Brazilian meat market in Danbury. While
working as the head butcher, I was in control of the quality and quantity of the meats
that our market was purchasing. Amin introduced Minore’s to us and was passionate
about the quality of the meat and the services. We decided to give Minore’s a try as he
was very adamant about the capabilities that Minore’s provides. Three years later I
bought my own store in Bridgeport and up to this date Amin and Minore’s have supplied
me and my former employer with the best quality of meat and service that we could ask
for.”
