When Salvatore Ottomanelli stumbled upon a Woodside butcher shop in 1960, he didn't buy it—he partnered with the owner, launching a Queens outpost of a family business that began with grandfather Gennaro's Greenwich Village pushcart in 1900. Famous for prime dry-aged steaks and exotic wild game like venison and kangaroo, this old-school butcher shop now operates within a burger restaurant where you can select a cut and have it cooked on the spot.
