Editorial Review for Grace's Marketplace – by Ian Zaretsky

In Short
Grace herself is a Balducci, the famed family of upscale food purveyors. So it's no surprise that this neighborhood market is such an institution, brimming with organic produce, fresh baked breads, artisanal cheeses, rows and rows of shelved foods and a long, colorful prepared food takeaway area selling mostly Mediterranean-inspired dishes by the pound. Customers pick up a gift basket for special occasions or order catering.

Did you ever try and get around this place with a shopping cart? The best and nicest people are those behind the prepared food counter. They're helpful, friendly and sincere. There are no sweets at the bakery counter and has anyone ever heard a cashier say "thank you?"

Pros: area, good prepared food, counter staff

Cons: rude, bad set up, no smiles

It's a great place for a quiet birthday dinner. The service was fantastic and the staff even sang happy birthday to my guest along with ice cream and brownie with a candle. Even though some say it's pricey, I find it a treat to splurge from time to time. Overall, I've never been disappointed. I just wish the marketplace wouldn't close so early, so that I could do some shopping after dinner.
