Let me start off saying, you cannot go wrong buying your meats from their butcher case. If you're…read moregrilling, or entertaining, this is where you want to buy your meats. You'll be thrilled with a Ribeye, Brat or a pound of Ground Beef. Their chicken will even win you over and you'll be talk of the town. Everyone will be talking about your meat. Now, I want to tell you about their hot prepared foods counter. If you are lazy and don't want to cook, come and select from the variety of meats and side dishes. I've enjoyed; Pork Steak, Chicken Breast, Meat Loaf, Ribs and Hamburger. My sides have been, Mac-n-Cheese, Greet Beans, Scalloped Potatoes and Baked Beans. None have been disappointing, except for the cheese on the burger. I was just a cold slice of American Cheese placed on top. I did a little zap in the microwave to get it to melt a little when I got it home. The service is friendly and attentive. The reason they lose a star from me is one employee, is not so friendly. She's middle-aged and has the personality of a wet rag. I cringe when she is the one assisting me at the counter. When assisted by other employees it is an entire different experience. I will return and hope that I do not get the negative lady and hopefully be able to raise them back up to 5 Stars.

Holy cow, if you are needing a meat fix at lunch this is the place to stop. For $8 you get your…read morechoice of meat (pulled pork, ribs, pork steak, chicken breast, and chicken nuggets) you can get them naked or dipped. Plus two sides, cheesy potatoes, cowboy potatoes, corn, green beans, baked beans, pasta salads, etc... Your mouth will be watering while you are standing in line. You can purchase a fountain soda and eat your lunch in the back room. On your way out the door don't forget to check out their wine, beer and spirits selection. You can get microbrews, any size flavor of wine and whiskey, which we all know makes one frisky...Oh yeah and more thing they actually have a meat counter, you can buy your meat and take it home to cook, but seriously why bother they do such a great job of it.

I love that this market not serves and promotes local farmers, but also local artisans. It is such…read morea delightful mix of vendors and products. The farmers offer fresh vegetables and some even have refrigerated trucks offering a variety of meats. Vendors that offer freshly made breads, pastries, jams and jellies, can almost be classified in either group. Those who are true artisans, are offering handmade jewelry, candles, cutting boards, canes, dog fashions, clothes for children and original pieces of art. That's just a sampling of what you can find walking up and down all the aisles. When I first started coming to this market it was only one of the parking lots. It has now expanded to another one and the variety of merchandise is mind blowing. It is well worth a visit. When you arrive, stop and get a coffee at Joe's and then start your stroll to shop local.

Saturday mornings in Alton during market season have something of a magic to them. You get to see friends and family and make new connections. If you're a dog person there is no shortage of dogs to pet. Everyone is so friendly! As the season changes from Mather's Day Market to those late season October markets, the variety of delicious produce and homemade goods also changes. There are no shortage of variety when it comes to vendors. The organizers also incorporate holidays or special events throughout.

I even noticed one reviewer repeatedly updating a one-star review after multiple visits, which made me wonder--if you dislike a place that much, why keep coming back? We ordered the NY strip steak and the filet mignon, and both were absolutely delicious. We also tried the artichoke appetizer, which was excellent. The drinks were equally impressive. Our waitress was incredibly kind and attentive. She proactively kept us updated when there was a slight delay and checked on us throughout the meal without being intrusive. The restaurant itself was beautifully themed, and everything felt well thought out and cohesive. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed my experience and would gladly return.

In addition to the bartenders, Tony's has an extra staff person behind the bar that takes care of food orders and keeps the bar glasses clean, too. That's good team work. The bartenders are masterful in their skills. I'm a classic cocktail drinker, so I usually enjoy a Martini, Manhattan or a Old Fashioned. I've also been know to order a Boulevardier and a glass of Cabernet Sauvignon. I have the Cab when I enjoy their Tuesday Night steak special. When I'm not super hungry and want a light meal, I do a house salad with Grilled Shrimp or a Shrimp Cocktail, or even a order of Oysters Rockefeller. I've even done the Wedge Salad with a side of Grilled Shrimp. Whatever I choose, I'm a satisfied diner. Small details that I like and make my dining experience complete are; Linen Napkins, Hooks Under the Bar, Eco-Friendly To-Go Vessels and a dog friendly patio. They just make me smile. In addition to the outstanding bartenders, the servers and hostesses are friendly, too. They provide upscale service in a casual dining atmosphere. If you give Tony's a try, check the bar out and see if I'm sitting on one of the stools. I'd love to meet you.

Remember, patience is a virtue…read more The sandwiches are great. The restaurant is kept clean. The staff is friendly and professional. However, the service can be on the slow side. However, keep in mind that everything is freshly made. I've watched them and they do not dawdle. They are moving those sandwiches down the assembly line very smoothly. I wonder if adding another person would expedite the production. So, if you're in a hurry, I recommend using their app to place your order before you arrive. I've created my own sandwich in the past, but today I went with their, New York Steamer. Yum-Yum. It's a hot deli-style sub with corned beef brisket and pastrami (my favorite deli meat), melted provolone cheese, deli mustard, mayo and Italian dressing. All that goodness is pressed between a toasted sub roll (I choose, wheat). I live about a mile and a half from the Firehouse and when I got home, it was still toasty warm. The pairing of beef brisket and pastrami was a winning combination. I pretty confident, I'll be ordering this one again. I've never made a combo, but I like that they have Miss Vicki's as a choice of chips. They also, have the typical Lay's potato chips, too. If you donate $4 you can get yourself an empty pickle bucket. The donation goes to support first responders and safety organizations. Mine comes in handy when doing yard work.

I am a senior citizen, so I really don't like it when things get moved around. I get use to them…read morebeing in a certain spot and don't want to play, Find Waldo when I go shopping. I understand the need to rearrange merchandise, but it still pisses me off. Today when I went into my Schnucks, they had flipped the organization of their shopping carts. The smaller two basket carts use to be on the right side of the corral, as you entered the store. Now they are on the left side, on the far side of the lobby. I understand the change, they want you to take a larger cart in hopes that you purchase more items. Sorry, not happening. I like my small cart. When I entered the store, I was entering with other seniors and we all were taken back of the cart reorganization. We all figured it out and stepped to the left to get the two tier carts. To be honest, I still miss the red hand baskets. For me they were the perfect size for a single person. Some of my favorite departments are the salad bar, seafood, deli and bakery. I like the salad bar because, I can make a delicious salad and take it home. Being single, buying all the ingredients for a salad is not cost effective. So much of it goes to waste. The same is true for the bakery. When I want something sweet, I can buy a single serving instead of baking an entire cake or pie. The seafood and deli are great places for me to grab lunch items when I am working my part-time job. In front of the prepared foods they have already packaged like; Chicken Salad, Cole Slaw, Potato Salad and other prepared side dishes. The seafood department has similar offerings. This Godfrey Schnucks is my hometown grocery store and it's close to my home. I'm easily here 3 times a week, so I'm a familiar face to most cashiers and some floor clerks. Since I usually buy 10 or fewer items, I'm a frequent user of Self Check-Out. When I have items that need to be weighed or I did some serious shopping and bought 11+ items I go through the cashier line. Self or cashier check-out, the staff is always friendly.

I'm not sure if they were understaffed but the people in front of me only ordered 2 sandwiches and I only ordered 1 and it took about 20 minutes for just me and the car in front of me to get from the order speaker to the window.
