We just stopped in to Ali's Marketplace for a special lunch and dessert treat. We also shopped a bit in the store, but really were there to eat. They have absolutely amazing fresh food. I ordered the italian sub, per their suggestion. And my friend ordered the reuben. Our kids ordered the chicken nuggets and (dairy free) grilled cheese. Everyone loved everything! The nuggets were really quite good. Perfect for kids. Not too "peppery" or dry, which we've found many GF nuggets are. My italian was absolutely incredible. So incredible actually that my kids ate most of it. And my friend actually said that her reuben ranked in the top of all reubens she's eaten, even before celiac!

After lunch we got an assortment of treats from the bakery. Everything was moist and delicious. The chocolate donuts are incredible but rich. I don't think I could eat a whole one, but it was great to share. The cookies were good and soft. And the streusel muffin was delicious. Nothing tasted dry or "sandy" like some GF items.

There were also plenty of dairy free items on both the bakery and lunch menus and they were conscientious to list all other allergies present in their products. They also prep all dairy free items in a separate prep area too.

All in all we were very impressed with the food! We look forward to driving out that way every so often for lunch and a treat.
