Any butcher recommendations in the BR area?

I live near Robert market and their “butcher” is awful. Never at the counter, not helpful at all, leaves 2 hours before closing, acts like I spit in his face if I ask him if he can actually do his job and butcher something for me, etc.
We eat a ton of meat and I’m looking for a place that has a butcher who actually does what butchers traditionally do. I’m not high maintenance but having someone who can cut a few filets if they’re not already in the counter would be nice. Does that even exist anymore or is every store in basically the same boat?

Try Iverstine. The only thing is if you want an odd cut you may have to wait. You can try Maxwells as well.
La Morenita has butchers as well. They always are cutting something up every time I’m there. You will need to know Spanish though, or you are pretty much SOL unless it’s a “normal” cut.

Iverstine’s for call ahead special cuts like beef back ribs.
Calandros will cut whatever you want.
I shop at Robert’s often. And I agree, they suck. “Sorry to bother you from your cell phone call over the speaker but can you maybe grab me a couple of these strips?”
I’ve never considered having them cut or separate anything because they suck.

Highland location? Yea its very hit or miss there. They have been getting some very good ny strips in there though. Some of the best looking steaks I have ever seen there. They do seem to just let you sit at the counter forever. I dont ring the bell but maybe I should
Ive always been impressed with Fresh Market. The quality of meat and their selection is pretty big. Butchers are always very attentive
Alexanders is another good place along with Calandros.
Why even respond with this shite?

Bet-R butcher is always cheerful and helpful, but I don’t ask often or for unusual stuff.

I don’t know if they are a regular butcher, but what I’ve had from Smith Angus Farm in Mt. Hermon (Washington Parish) has been solid. I know they do online orders, I’m not sure if they have a storefront or not.
They must have something on site, after going to the website I learned you have to pick up your order there.

They have high quality meat, but I agree. If it's not already cut and in the counter, I just pass.
If you're willing to pay the premium, Iverstine is the best butcher.
I shop the sales at Roberts all the time due to their meat sales. The ground beef prices are hard to beat. And I stock up when they put the Springer Mountain whole chickens on sale. I've cooked them side by side with normal Sanderson Farms chicken and it's a noticable difference.
