I bought 5 kg chicken curry pieces and other items totalling $160 as a part of monthly shopping from this shop. After returing home we cooked 2kgs curry pieces straightway, when we were cooking I got bad chicken smell from the meat and later couldn’t eat because of bad odour. So ended up throwing in the bin. Then thought next time when I would go to the shop for next monthly shop return the rest 3kgs. I had no problem with the shop until I went there to return. Without apologising or showing any empathy the guy at the shop started interrogating me “when did you buy from us”, “show me the receipt” etc.. I showed the receipt on my phone transaction. Then asked me very objectionable question if I bought it from other shop. I keep telling him it’s not the case but he showed total mistrust as if I did buy from other shop. Then I ended up no refund or exchange and but throwing that meat to their face and not buying anything else. Such a shame and I am disgusted by such behaviour which is not at Australian level. Didn’t say “sorry” word for a single time - they need learn how and when to say sorry! Updated Response: You are again falsely claiming that I appeared 3 months later? I told you we cooked the meat same day I bought and got the bad odour, I just went to your shop after a month and also I showed you transaction receipt. My point was not just your meat - it could happen any product, any business but my point is all about your behaviour. You didnt say sorry for a singe time, rather accusing me for my experience. You are such a liar and arrogant - you just lost a customer, in no time you will destroy your business.

Best butcher around! If you think of what a local butcher should be, the team at Taqwa butcher are exactly that! Great quality, great prices and great service. Couldn't reccomend them enough. Don't waste time getting your meat from woolies or somewhere else, you won't be dissapointed. I go to taqwa butcher more or less weekly, sometimes more and am impressed every time. They are way cheaper than a supermarket and way better quality. They frequently get fresh lamb and goat in and can cut to order. Drop in and say hi, you won't go back to a supermarket for your meat again. I've added a few photos of recent cooks using meat from taqwa butcher just so you can see how the quality is. If you want them to trim it up for you just ask too, they will be more than happy to help where they can!

Last weekend I bought chicken curry pieces and when brought home, before cooking was washing we felt bad smell from chicken and it was obvious that all curry pieces were from the same part of chicken it was not mix pieces at all . However after cooking the food smelled so bad and tried to eat but could not hecuase the chicken meat was quite old and expected. This happens to me second time buying chicken from this shop , first time it happened a month ago when I bought chicken breast fillets had the same issue and had to through the all chicken ... Providing this real feedback does not mean to put dieb the business but it's the real picture for the owners and the future buyers so he careful when buying any item from.them .. not sure how to confirm if it would be fresh meat or not ?

Today I went to the Taqwa super market to buy some stuff but the price of some stuff was higher than the other Persian supermarkets when I told the lady at the counter that your prices are higher than the others specially the bread she said if you don’t want put it back and get out, so disappointing, she was very rude, I said you should be nice with your costumers otherwise you will loose them she said I don’t care I can’t keep costumers like you… I would never come back again, very disappointing

On the request of my bother I am re-writing my review with complete honesty and sincerity. This is the best place of meat I have identified so far with fresh reasonable meat and an enormous amount of variety for other grocery items availability under one roof . The staff is good and friendly. The only request to all of you is to place an order over phone if you are driving from a distant place to get meat as they don’t cut after 4 but they are open until 630. I’m really grateful to my brother for my brother for informing me this as I live pretty far from here . Good job guys ! All the best ! Cheers

Heard alot about this place Bought 2kg goat and lamb yesterday 1st time. After cleaning fat only got this left couldn’t find any good piece . This is what is left after cleaning fats. Mistake was I wasn’t standing when they were packing up , I ordered and got busy in grocery store . #i have ordered GOAT for curry NOT FOR SOUP. It looks like left over stuff from good pieces . All uneven,tiny,skinny,uneven pieces and few just bones with not really much meat on it . Advise if really want to buy stand in front and keep an ️eye what they put in your bag .

I have shopped from this store over the past couple of years only because other Persian grocery stores are very far from me, nothing specifically great or special about them and I was always disappointed with the attitude of the lady at cashier. At my last visit she sneezed into her hands two times in front of me and when I asked if she will sanitize her hands before handling my groceries she was rude to me and there was not even a single hand sanitizer on her counter!!! Will never shop there again, no matter how far I need to drive to another store.

I have been to this store many times over the past few years. Nice people who are always keen to help and keep the customers happy. You can find good range of Persian and Afghan food, spices and bread in this store. The butchery is always active and the prices are fair with a good quality. There are many parking spaces both at the front and at the back of the store. Highly recommend this place.

Not good experience. The staffs do not appear to show some decency, instead they sound arrogant. Seems the staffs do not value customers who buy small quantities like 1 kilo or so…they did not even bother to address customer questions when I asked them that are they serving old stock. Requested them to give me fresh meat but they decided not to serve me…

I have to say the meat at Taqwa Halal Butcher has the most tender meat & great taste I have ever tasted. The shop is always clean, (as you can see from behind the counter where the staff are working) and the staff are always friendly when ever I visit to purchase my weekly meat shopping. Very satisfied customer! Thank you

Very Bad Experience, rude and arrogant staff. Extremely Bad service. I Will never go back to this shop. May not make a difference to them if one less customer but I will not go to such place were they don’t treat their customers with respect. I will not recommend this business to any of my family or friends for sure.

Never been disappointed always get fresh meat. Processing meat done front of you not like other places you don’t know what they do behind the wall and you get welcome every time they really care about customers satisfaction Highly recommend them and wish them all the best

I brought 8 ribs off them today along with other meat...they were literally all fat and uneatable.. tried to call the store to request a refund and no one answered So disappointed , only cook 4 out the 8 the other 4 are going in the bin...don't get meat here

Been a customer with them for long time and we come to this place because of the quality of the meat however we have been seeing worst customer service and today we experienced one. Very arrogant customer Service & Don’t care attitude towards their customer.

Awesome customer service, the owners are very polite, friendly and helpful. The meat as well as the other products i.e. spices, nuts, confectionary, everthing is good. Thank you for opening up this shop here on the north side, it was much needed.

I’ve been coming to this shop for the past couple of years now and never disappointed. I understand it’s a small shop and can get very busy at times, but I can see the staff and managers are doing their best to serve and treat customers to

They used to have a good kebab minced mix, but today I bought 1kg and it was so bad, was not meat at all. To all people who love koobideh, unfortunately they are cheating now to make more money, I don’t recommend them anymore

Great range of food, except for once, I always had good experience with their meats. The only thing that i would say they can improve is hire more staff as in weekends it could be busy at times and wait time could be longer

I am not happy with this shop . Today i bought 1 kg goat meat from this shop . Not Friendly behaviour. I was a regular customer . But i decided, i never buy anything like (meat and other items ) from this shop .

I can't comment on the meat, but I've been in a couple of times now to buy the plain and flavoured pistachios from the attached shop. Good prices and tasty. Keep them coming and I'll keep buying them. :-)

Best butcher around. I go here around once a week, only place nearby that actually sells fresh goat. The steaks here are also great. Service is always friendly and quick. Keep it up guys …

I've been visiting this butcher since it established. I never had any issues with their meat or other groceries. They are the best in the town. Tumbs up guys and keep up the good work.

I will give just three stars as when ever i go there they don’t have enough meat to serve customers plus two time i went first while they serve the customers next to me

Without a proper entrance passing through narrow hallway is not a good first impression. Also, meat stinks. It is good to care about customers and renew shop Fitout.

Leaves out of date products (meat sujuk) in fridge for sale. Just got home to find that one of the items I’ve purchased here expired over a week ago. Won’t be back.

I go here every so often. They have a different range from most of the other butchers in the area and lots of spices etc. The staff are always nice and friendly

I liked there service and I ll really appreciate because they almost closed the shop but Ater helped me to get what I want to buy from the shop. Thank you Ater

Rude staff Need to learn how to talk to customers .Looks like they don't want business. Keep going this way you will look for customers one day …

Bought some lamb cutlets from this butcher, but later discovered that a half of the meat given were lamb ribs and sold for the price of cutlets.

The staff there needs to learn some customer service lessons, especially the girl at the counter, she is so rude! I would never shop there again.

Since the place is under new management, they have variety of stuff available and its a family own business now with great customer service.

Great products. Steak and Tandoori chicken are amazing. Recommend the chicken nibbles in Honey soy when they have them.

A very nice supermarket and halal butcher Fresh meat and grocery varieties… Omid is a Friendly and young owner

Gas everything you need. Nice staff. Could improve communication but, the language barrier is understandable.

Horrible service at the butchery as always. 5 workers chit chatting in the back with just one serving.

It is a nice place to have beef chicken lamb and many more. Recommended for grocery shopping as well.

Awesome family owned business with great meat at fantastic prices. It's always a pleasure to pop by.

Out of 1kg, nearly half of it is fat. Not good. Already price is higher than other halal shops.

Top quality meat, clean place, reasonable prices and super friendly staff! Highly recommended!

Very good and nice customer service. And very good quality of meat and groceries ❤️ …

Good place to get middle eastern (Afghan and Iranian) grocery. It could be a cleaner shop

highest quality meat , very fresh and delicious 10/10 recommend, friendly staff too …

Overpriced...less variety ...only reason to go there is its the only halal shop in north
