    A very pathetic chicken salad sandwich. This is not even half a sandwich for a Choose 2.

    Really disappointed in the chicken salad sandwich we received as part of a Choose 2. I would not consider this a whole half of a sandwich. The rest of the food received was fine, but this pathetic little sandwich made me mad.

    Wildberry Sweet Tea.  Unless you order by the gallon, this is the individual size.

    Wow, this is an epic place for sandwiches! Not as famous as NYC's various delis, but lots of variety here and the menu makes it hard to decide. I guess this is why my coworkers never tire of this place when working in Midland. I got the New Yorker Sandwich - a nice warm sandwich with half inch thick slices of pastrami on top of another half inch thick layer of corned beef. Savory and a hint of spicy and oh so good with their rye bread. My choice of side was a chicken tortilla soup that was pretty good - a bit on the rich side but good. They also sell famous sweet teas (peach, wildberry) here - a single large individual size or you can buy by the gallon(!). In fact, buy five gallons if tea and get the next one free! Their wildberry sweet tea was very good - not overly sweet and it had a complex, smooth fruity taste. Hard to describe. For a fast casual sandwich place, this place is real good. They also have spuds, salads, and desserts all at reasonable prices. They even have a sandwich called The Big Nasty and have Shrimp Po Boys. Wished they had one near where I live!

    Wasn't all what I thought it would be. Actually pretty nasty. Slow service and not professional

    Don't waste your time or money at this location, Me and my family recently moved to Andrews Texas and we were ecstatic when we saw it had a McAlisters... but after multiple to go orders going south I regret to say we will not be going back Visit 1 - no gravy w/ the big nasty sandwich , no French dip to go with the French dip sandwich, missing salads, the salads that were in the bag had tomatoes when we said no tomatoes Visit 2- again no gravy with the big nasty, ended up with 3 orders of chili instead of 3 Mac and cheese, no ranch dressings to go with the salads salad also had tomatoes again and the club as well Visit 3 -missing club sandwich had to turn back and get the missing sandwich then when they made it again ,with tomatoes with mustard Visit 4 -AGAIN,no gravy for the big nasty or the the black angus spud , no cheese or bacon to go with the country potato soup Visit 5 -got to the pick up window order was supposed to be ready by 6:02, pull up to the window and the employee informs me that they had mis placed my New Yorker sandwich and my wifes club ended up waiting another 24 minutes for our sandwiches and I ended up with a sliver of a sandwich, mind you I understand the choose two is half a sandwich but what I received was a joke especially considering I waited the additional time for them to fix them "misplacing" my original sandwich Check out the photo of my monster New Yorker sandwich what a joke If you get the urge for McAlister's do not I repeat do not go to this location unless you are able to go to the back of the kitchen and make it your self bc that's the only way you will be able to get the correct order what a joke

    Chicken sandwich and see the sample of gluten free bread on the upper left corner... IT ROCKS! And it's not a rock :)

    GREAT GLUTEN FREE BREAD!! mpressed with how well they are keeping up the boom going on locally. Fast and friendly, and pretty good. I ordered a grilled chicken sandwich for lunch with a side fruit. The chicken needed seasoning but the bread was good. The fruit cup was good considering spring just now started, hard to find really good out of season fruit anywhere. Although though some members of my family aren't fans of Mcallisters, I give it a thumbs up and hope they keep the direction they are heading. Best thing from this visit- I noticed a sign after place my order said GLUTEN FREE BREAD AVAILABLE. I asked for a small taste, and they brought me a toasted slice. I have to say it was the best gluten free slices bread I have tasted!! Wonder if they sell it by the loaf ;) For the friendly and courteous way they handled the gluten free bread request - they deserve a 5 star rating from me!

My sister and I, in the process of moving, so I happily sent her with my delicious sounding order. Much to my utter disgust, and sheer disappointment, the food was so HORRIBLE, it was completely uneatable. It truly was NOT fit for human consumption. I thought, " this must have been an off night " or perhaps this was leftover food from others who didn't pick up their order? I wondered. I moved back to my hometown after many years of arduous education, and working in the metropolitan area of Houston Medical Center. I moved back due to a critical medical crisis in my family. I sure looked forward to the delicious food I remembered from years of my childhood and early adulthood. I have four words to describe my exact advice about the PRESENT DQ in Andrews Texas. DO NOT EAT HERE!!!! The food was so horrible, and truly a health and safety risk to ANYONE who dare to grab a bite at this establishment! I actually still thought the people who owned the DQ cared about the citizens of Andrews County. WRONG!! I attempted to discuss the experience with someone named Nicole who claimed to be an owner of this outdated, filthy place!! Her response was to lecture me for waiting 2 days to report the incident. She continued her unwarranted lecture, and "I will NOT DO ONE THING TO HELP YOU WITH THIS SITUATION! It's YOUR PROBLEM!! Deal with it"!!! I requested the contact information for the owner. She claimed to BE THE OWNER, and her attitude was totally rude, ridiculous, and outrageous! I honestly tried everything to give DQ another chance, but after the go to hades attitude, her blatant disregard and disrespect for the 25$ which I spent, and her total lack of CARING about the food being literally unfit for consumption, I will NEVER donate another dime to this trash bin of a fast food nightmare! If I could give this a minus two stars, I would!! Do NOT EAT HERE!!!!

We have been…read morestaying with my in-laws for a bit now (in the process of preparing our house to sell and buy a new one) and so we have been exploring restaurants in the area for once, which I'm sure we will be continuing to do when we come back in the future too. And frankly this is the best steak kabob, rice pilaf, and fries that I've had in a long time. It beyond hits the spot! Where we went wrong, however, is by ordering it for pickup via DoorDash, as that is what comes up as an option via Google. I am disabled and currently very sick so I sent my husband to pick it up for me and when he got there, they said they had the order and that it would be right out. The manager brought the food out and asked him if he would be paying with cash or card. When my husband explained it was prepaid via DoorDash, her friendly demeanor changed and she LAID INTO HIM about how "you DoorDash drivers know better than to come in here like customers! You are supposed to go in the other entrance and pick up your orders there!" He explained he wasn't a driver for DoorDash and didn't know anything about that because it was a pickup order for his wife but she couldn't care less. It's too bad the food is so good because if you treat my husband poorly, we aren't coming back to keep giving you our money in the future. Please fix how you treat people! Even if he was a DoorDash driver, that behavior was uncalled for! Everyone has feelings and it's still money coming into your business!

RATING BREAKDOWN Food: 4 | Service: 4.5 | Ambiance: 3 | Price: 3 PARKING The parking lines were difficult to see on 1/9/2024, but just pull in and a staff member will come out to take your order. LOCATION/AMBIANCE It looks a bit rundown on the outside, but it's mostly a drive-in. It seems like the dining room has been closed for quite a few months due to staff shortage. I hope this changes soon because this looks like an awesome diner. THE GRUB The steak fingers basket ($15.25) had the best steak fingers I have ever had. Only one strips had some tough pieces. The cream gravy comes in a somewhat small cup. My family has always been big on gravy... they don't do a simple dip -- no, no -- they do dip and scoop method. LITTLE YELPER'S CLUB I'm not sure if there is a kid's menu. The menu on the wall was a bit hard to read in its entirety. My 9 & 10-year-olds ended up ordering cheeseburgers ($9 each) with an order of crinkle fries ($3.25). These didn't come with drinks. SERVICE At first I didn't realize that the dining room was closed. We waited a while for the long employee we interacted with to come out to take our order. She didn't write anything down and that always concerns me. Lol. My youngest daughter said her cheeseburger was sans cheese. The food is cooked to order, so be prepared to wait upwards of 25-30 minutes. MY FAVORITE PART... The steak fingers & cream gravy! NOT SO FAVORITE PART... The fries were terrible. Also, I wish their plates or baskets came with drinks for the price they charged. TIP Call ahead for order pickups: 432-523-4890.

Imagine going to Brooklyn and the only pizza joint available is Little Ceasar's and you have some idea of my general level of barbecue frustration. I spent 14 hours in mouth watering anticipation and was anxious to get eating. At noon, I loaded myself and my mother into the car and bee-lined for the location indicated on their post. When I pulled up, there were no other cars there, which is a shame. After all, if we don't support local restaurants, we deserve all the mass produced chain crap that we get. I ordered a 1 neat plate (brisket) and my mother got a 1 meat plate (ribs) for a total of $20. Each plate had about 3/4 to 1 lb of meat, a cup of potato salad and a cup of pinto beans. First, the sides. The potato salad was a mustard type (the ONLY kind, in my opinion) and was just about the most delicious potato salad I've ever had. It was at least the best I've had lately. The beans were generously seasoned and loaded with large chunks of pork. As a guy who spent 49 years hating beans, the fact that I ate every last drop if this magical legume concoction is pretty amazing. On to the meat. My brisket had a smoke ring about 1/2" thick with a crunchy, smoky bark and a no-nonsense, beefy flavor. No reason to gild the lily with ridiculously complex rubs. These guys keep it classic with the brisket and let the meat do the heavy lifting. If I had any complaint, it would be that I would really have enjoyed some meat from the fattier point to moisten up the leaner, drier flat. Otherwise, I recommend this joint to all die hard carnivores as well as recovering vegetarians. The truck can be located on Tuesdays and Thursdays in the Tractor Supply parking lot and on Wednesdays on South Main Street across from Love's Convenience Store. Check 'em out!

The brisket I was served was very very fat, and it was not rendered out by proper cooking which resulted in a pile of chewey fat with a little meat in the mix. Some of the others had brisket that was dry and crumbly. It did not have a good Smokey flavor, and had a slight taste like it was cooked on propane. The meat I did get was more like a fat pot roast. The turkey was your basic deli processed turkey and was mushy. The sausage I am still trying to identify. It was tan in color with little flavor and the texture was way off. The beans were your standard Ranch Style Beans that were jazzed up a little. The potato salad was basically mashed potatoes. Im confident I will not attempt to eat this food again.
