J. Morten's

Absolutely love this place! it’s a hidden gem for home chefs to get access to high quality ingredients for delicious home cooked meals!

Had an amazing first time coming in! The selection is unmatched in the twin cities. We picked up some A5 Wagyu for sukiyaki and some acorn pork. Super friendly and it was a fun experience. Look forward visiting again

If you are a carnivorous human who enjoys the wonderful taste of the red meat that comes from a wonderful animal that moo's, and haven't been to J. Morten's Butcher Shop, well then, you're missing out. They sell the best meat in the twin cities from duroc pork, lamb, bison, prime grade meat, Japanese wagyu, and my personal favorite Australian wagyu, plus more. Dan, the owner of this amazing establishment, is a really cool and nice guy, who is very knowledgeable. Every time I have a question whether it's about cooking something properly or even about the genetics of the meat, or grading, I've always gotten an answer from him. "To put it into perspective, how much I like this shop" I went out to dinner 3 times to well rated restaurants in the month of July 2025, one of which was meat focus establishment. After eating steaks at all of them, I found myself thinking that I should have saved my money, got a pasta dish or a burger, and used the money I could of saved and gone to J. Mortens and get a quality steak because none of those steaks from those restaurants came close to what J. Morten's sells.

If you’re looking for a meat market that offers a wide variety of highest-quality meats and provisions, J. Morten’s is the way to go, every single time! Located in a quiet area along France in Edina, this location has blown me away in a good way. Their storefront is clean, modern, organized and aesthetically pleasing. Their selection ranges from beef, pork, broths, seasonings, cooking oils, frozen meats and beyond, including the finest selection of Australian and Japanese Wagyu beef in the Twin Cities area I went with the Japanese A5 Miyazaki Wagyu Ribeye, and it did not disappoint one bit. The man who was working, Dan, gave me the highest quality service with a detailed rundown of what they have. Will always recommend J. Morten’s to anybody I know or meet.

I drove about 20 miles hoping to pick up a ribeye, filet, and New York strip, but only the ribeye was dry aged and in stock, which I took as a good sign. The ribeye looked great and cooked up nicely, though the dry-aged flavor wasn’t quite as bold am used to. I think you can’t pass final judgement without at least three tests, so I’ll be back to try again before making a final judgment. For now, my review is only three stars.

Super easy to get to, off of France Ave. They have quite a few varieties of high class meats. The owner is very friendly and helpful. If you're looking for A5 Wagyu beef, they do sell different types from different areas of the world. If you are looking for Japanese A5 Wagyu, they do sell it, however, it does state on their website they may not always have it in stock. If you are looking for thin sliced meats, it is best to call in advance to see if they have any or if it can be ordered. They cannot slice thinly there, you would have to pre-order or do it yourself. Please note the type of meat is high class so don't think you're going to be paying twenty bucks a pound for beef, it will be a little bit more. They also do have duck, pork, and other sauces as well. I can't wait to return.

I got a Japanese Wagyu steak and it was amazing, it was so easy to find the right piece with the help of the man behind the counter. I will always come here for quality meat!

Stopped by for Father's Day weekend drove an hour just to get here. Was it worth it? 100000% would drive farther for this quality of meat. Was greated by Dan who helped me out, they got seasonings, cooking oil, different types of meats well marbled, and, I'd say better than some steak houses. Thanks Dan for the help!

Like no other. Hands down the best in the Midwest region for exceptional cuts and rare/exclusive finds. The only place to hit when you want a guaranteed winner. A customer for years now, I'm always impressed with both their quality and their service..they are the gold standard. Whether hosting friends & family at home, or visiting friends out-of-state and looking for the perfect unexpected housewarming gift, these exceptional cuts of beef are always the biggest hit on the table. Owner and staff are equal parts knowledgeable, helpful, and friendly. 11/10 recommend. (Pro-tip: Do not sleep on the beef sticks in the to-go cooler..they're always devoured before I ever even get home.)

If you are looking for top quality and the very best meats for your family and friends! This is the place to go!

More than just meat. They know their products and can advise how to order and pair foods with each product. They made Mother's Day special for me.

We go there often to pick up hamburger meat. Once you try them..you won't eat any other hamburger meat..they are delicious!

Only place we could find to get waygu and it was so worth the drive. Steaks were delicious and the owner and his wife were awesome. Will definitely be back!

My fiancée and I got some Australian Wagyu beef Patties. They were amazing and it’s the best burger I’ve ever had. We live two hours away but will continue to come get more delicious meats. The customer service was fantastic as well! We didn’t have a freezer bag for travel home but we’re giving one which we greatly appreciated.

My husband picked up an Australian Wagyu NY Strip MS9 to share for Valentine’s Day. Well, let’s be honest, he also grabbed a filet mignon so he didn’t have to share the NY strip. There’s no comparison. This is beef butter. Highly recommend …

Finally found a place that's sells genuine dry aged steak in the twin cities. It was my first time eating a dry aged steak and it definitely lived up to the hype. Don't need to eat it all the time but next time I want to splurge and have a really nice steak I'll go back to J. Morten's

This is not what first comes to mind when I think of a meat market. There aren't big cases filled with row after row of different kinds and cuts of meats. There are cases, but everything is individually bagged, tagged, and priced. There was …

Employees were very helpful when I called about what was available. Prices were standard even around Christmas and New Years. We bought the Waygu Ribeye MS5 and absolutely loved it!

Awesome shop with a great selection of meats and other specialty items! Dan helped us pick two great cuts of ribeye, definitely will be coming back!

I absolutely love this place. Best steaks I've ever had. Expensive, but the price is fair for the product you're getting.
