Satriale's Pork Store is a fictional establishment on the HBO series The Sopranos. As told in the television show, during the 1970s, the pork store was taken over by Johnny Boy Soprano, a member of The DiMeo Crime Family, when Mr. Satriale failed to make payments on a gambling debt and committed suicide.

Since then, it has become a regular hangout for current members of the Gualtieri and Soprano crews. The pork store is set and filmed at 101 Kearny Avenue in Kearny, New Jersey. The interior walls of the storeroom where Emil "E-Mail" Kolar is murdered by Christopher Moltisanti has black and white film production photographs of classic actors Humphrey Bogart, Edward G.

Robinson and Dean Martin mounted on the walls. These actors were also known to portray anti-hero mob characters during their film careers which gained them their fame. Although a mob-owned establishment, Satriale's runs a legitimate business selling a variety of meats, pork and sausage.

The store also has a coffee bar which sells pastries and espresso as seen in several episodes. In the large storefront windows hung cured hams and trussed pig carcasses, coils of pink-and-beige sausages, including a denuded chicken with its beak still in place. It is also prominently featured in the video game The Sopranos: Road to Respect.

Satriale's is based on Sacco's Meat Market located at 806 3rd Avenue in Elizabethtown, New Jersey which served as the unofficial criminal headquarters of "Uncle Joe" Giacobbe, a veteran made man in the DeCavalcante crime family. The Sopranos character, Corrado Soprano is based on Giacobbe.
