It's been over a year since my last review. I still like the Meat House, I no longer love the Meat House. I like their selection, I no longer love their prices. I like the fact that, if I'm in the mood I can go get a nice steak for the grill or a few chicken thighs that I can do so. I no longer love the fact that I question their quality standards that they set for their employees.
I am in the food business, I am very conscious about how people handle themselves behind the counter or practice general sanitation practices when handling food for the public in general. I have seen 2 specific instances at this location that are reasons for me not to want to return. Just this past week I witnessed an employee walking out of the restroom with his apron on. How nasty is that? I am a male and can attest that there can be "overspray" involved when using the facilities. General sanitation practices call for employees to remove their overwrap BEFORE entering the restroom in addition to washing hands etc.... This guy obviously didn't do that and potentially contaminated someones dinner with urine. GROSS.
Prior to writing this, I wrote to their corporate office and didn't receive a response. That's strike 2. Sometimes the risk doesn't outweigh the rewards and I probably won't be back.
