It was pretty busy and everyone working in the deli was hustling to get orders out. One of the other customers told me it was BBQ day and strongly recommend the BBQ, but I had my heart set on the chicken Parmesan sandwich. The staff was friendly and helpful after I told them I was a first timer. I picked the banana pudding as the side. I got my order after a few minutes and went toy car to eat. The chicken parm was hot and fresh. The chicken was cooked well with a good outer crust. The sauce was good and there was plenty of cheese. The bread was awesome. Soft on the outside and had a good toasted crisp on the inside. The banana pudding was great. Full of banana flavor, whipped cream and a vanilla wafer. All of that for $8.00, too! I will definitely return and try some of the other items!

The one thing I will give it a con about and it could be just me but I do wish there were more grab and go items like pre-made sandwiches. They had an incredible selection of grab and go drinks.

Great little store for the health conscious featuring lots of organic choices and important…read moresupplements. I found that they carry two of my favorites - Alden's Organic Ice Cream and Prima Ancestral Protein Bars. In case you don't know, Alden's Organic is an Oregon-based brand specializing in certified organic ice cream and frozen desserts. it emphasizes high-quality, organic ingredients while avoiding artificial additives, high-fructose corn syrup, and other common conventional ice cream components. Their products use milk and cream from humanely raised cows, and many are gluten-free or offer dairy-free options. Prima Ancestral Protein Bars are animal-based protein bars designed around "ancestral" or nose-to-tail, real-food nutrition principles. They focus on grass-fed ingredients, avoiding seed oils, artificial additives, refined sugars, and ultra-processed isolates common in many protein bars. Popular options include: Cookie Dough, Salted Caramel (my favorite), Cacao, Mocha, and Mint Chip. This is (IMHO) the best protein bar one can buy. So now that I've totally convinced you on purchasing these two great (and good for your body) products, I'll continue with my review. Along with these two great finds, I purchased some Organic Brazil Nuts, Organic Sourdough Bread, and a couple of Zum Bar goats milk soap (frankincense and myrrh, tyvm). If you've never tried a Zum Bar you really should. Friendly employees and a comfortable family atmosphere store made for a very pleasant and enjoyable shopping experience. I'll definitely be back when I'm in the area.

I grabbed a soda out of a "cooler" in the back and it was very warm. Maybe they had just stocked it but I pulled from the back of the "refrigerated" case so unlikely but maybe. They had a small fan circulating air over the produce. When it was time to check out there were four people in line none of us had more than five items.

I've always loved a good or even halfway decent (?) sub sandwich, especially from Quiznos. But…read morerecently I've noticed a severe decline in both quality of food and the customer service at the Edwardsville location. Went in for two sandwiches for myself and my partner on 9/5 around 7:30 pm, and we are strictly vegetarian diets. Now, I understand that it is ultimately up to the consumer to ensure that their food meets their dietary restrictions. However, two things may be true at once, so it is also true that there could definitely be more closely followed protections/procedures against cross contamination. Especially the kind of cross contamination that would be very easy to prevent, like something as simple as changing your gloves/knife. Anyway. I ordered two sandwiches, and specified right away that these will both be "all vegetarian, please." The girl making the orders just stared at me and said "ok." Not even after my partner said "we have a meat allergy," did this girl think twice about changing her gloves or the cuttingboard. After she set the base for 2 veggie guacamole sandwiches, and put them in the toaster, it only continued to get worse. The boy who took the sandwiches out of the oven to finish them off seemed possibly brand new. He had not changed his gloves either, and the sandwiches right before ours were packed with meats. I requested that he change out the knife because we are vegetarian. He seemed confused and lost at my request, and had no sense of urgency whatsoever in going to grab a new knife. After he got rid of the dirty knife and grabbed a new one, he began right away folding our sandwiches up. I asked him about the lettuce, tomato, guac, etc. that are supposed to be toppings..? And the blank stare I got back was enough indication to me that this employee had zero clue what is listed on the menu. After looking around for the other employee, who was busy helping another customer and unable to assist him, the boy began to "take a guess" and started trying to put guacamole on the sandwiches, but the guac bottle was dripping liquid onto the sandwiches... At this point we said "nevermind, it's okay we changed our minds" and walked out. Where is the manager?! Never going back, and neither should you. Would give 0/5 stars if I could.

I love this store. It is so worth the drive from my home in Godfrey…read more The produce department, just blows my mind. The variety and freshness of all the vegetables and fruits is huge. I can find unique items that you do not see at other grocers. I am wanting to eat healthier this year and this department is helping me achieve that goal. Another department that I enjoy is the, Deli and Prepared Foods. I have ordered from the prepared foods department for many of my parties. It makes life so much easier and everyone loves the appetizers. The butcher/meat department is as impressive as the produce. Also, the Dierbergs label is just as good as a name brand and it helps you save money on your total bill. If you're a drinker, the liquor department is a mini liquor store located inside a grocery store. The variety of wine and beer is huge. If you over drink and do something stupid, you can use Dierbergs florist to help get yourself out of trouble. The staff on the floor are helpful when I cannot find what I am looking for and the cashiers are friendly and move the lines quickly. Reminder: The store is in Edwardsville, so take your own bags, otherwise you'll be paying 10¢ a bag.

"Stick to the knitting" is the phrase that comes to mind. I believe it's a chapter title in an old…read morebook by Peters & Waterman called "In Search of Excellence." It summarizes their advice to businesses that have diversified so much that they've diminished the value they once provided in their most basic services. Here's why the phrase comes to mind in reference to D-Edwardsville. Years ago when it opened, it became my first-choice grocer, a moderately expensive but close-to-home alternative to specialty grocers in St. Louis. We could find nearly everything we really needed there, including gluten-free items. I was particularly happy that the fish counter offered fresh and previously frozen items that were as good as those I picked up 30 - 40 miles away. In recent months, I've been less enthused to shop at D-Edwardsville. Whereas the traffic flow of the east end used to draw attention of the shopper toward produce, deli, fish, and meat, now attention is drawn just as much toward the prominent placement of an expanded and generally high-priced wine-liquor section. The produce selection rarely seems as good as Schnuck's or Walmart. And the fish counter that I used to love is now a place I avoid, especially after some bad fish purchased during the yearend holidays. So bad that citrus juice and even alcohol rinse (with sake) could not save it. I imagine Edwardsville grocery competition is stiff these days, and D has a difficult challenge retaining market share and making a profit. I sympathize with the dilemma, but from my perspective, more alcohol or a phone app with coupons won't make much of a difference. In my opinion, flawed as it may be, I'll be muttering quietly as I roll my cart out the door, "Stick to the knitting.
