The Good Stuff
Cut advice
The team is often praised for explaining which cuts to choose and how to cook them, including steak recommendations.
Steak sandwich
The Philadelphia Steak Sandwich received especially strong feedback for juicy steak, a well-matched bun and good packaging.
Custom marinades
Customers can request adjustments to marinades, a useful option for regular chicken orders.
Lebanese dishes
Reviews mention generous Lebanese dishes including Ouzi rice, kibbeh, tabbouleh and fattoush.
Professional packing
Several delivery customers mention careful packaging, including professionally packed fresh meat and well-presented orders.
Tips for a Better Visit
Allow time. Build in extra time for simple orders: one review reports repeated 40–60 minute preparation delays.
Confirm timing. For scheduled delivery, reconfirm the arrival window before ordering; one customer waited until 21:55 after being promised an earlier delivery.
Ask cooking advice. Ask the butcher how to cook your cut; customers have received guidance on steak preparation and which butter to use.
Try ready-grill. If you want an easier barbecue, look for the ready-to-grill selection mentioned by a long-term customer.
Confirm pickups. For large seasonal orders, confirm whether pickup is required and agree the pickup time in advance.

The Bottom Line
The Meat Avenue combines a butcher shop with a Lebanese restaurant in Jumeirah Lake Towers. You can buy fresh cuts for home cooking, ask for help choosing and preparing them, or order dishes such as the Philadelphia Steak Sandwich, Ouzi rice with meat and kibbeh. Hummus is another recurring favourite in the reviews.
The strongest pattern is meat quality. Customers describe fresh, tender beef, chicken and lamb, with a useful range of cuts, sausages, rubs and ready-to-grill options. Some also appreciate custom marinade adjustments and careful packaging for delivery.
For a special meal, reviews mention filet mignon cooked medium rare and a ribeye roast used for slow cooking. Service is less consistent than the food. Several delivery customers report late orders, including preparation times of 40–60 minutes and one order still missing at 21:55.
A few reviews also describe unfriendly staff interactions. There are isolated quality complaints, including a bad-smelling wagyu tenderloin block, a rubbery brisket and a disappointing Christmas turkey, so check special or premium orders when they arrive. If timing matters, confirm the delivery or pickup window before committing.
