Very good food. Plenty of room. Parking is a little difficult, especially handicapped.

9/9/26 We had visited McAlister's Deli a couple of times when we visited from Minnesota years ago…read more We moved to Independence two years ago, and tonight was our first return! It did NOT disappoint. They have a variety of breads, protein choices and accruements to embellish their sandwiches. SUPER tasty and GREAT plating makes their food mighty tempting. Vance, the young man who took our orders, was knowledgeable about selections and patient with we "newbies". The layout appears to be a "fast food joint". Nothing could be further from the truth. Genuine silverware with REAL "LIVE" PLATES, ROOMY, comfortable booths or table and chairs makes for a relaxing environment. Allowing for lingering and conversation with good friends. We will DEFINITELY be returning soon!

First day of a new job Lunch!…read more New to this side of town and stopped in here for a little comfort of something I recognized. The Atmosphere - Well it was clean and tidy. Again there is little personality to most locations these days yet the functionality and the ability to clean quickly is at a premium. But, there is little about the restaurant that is comfortable or memorable. So this gets the standard 3 stars. The Staff - I had the good fortune to interact with several of the staff members this time. And ALL of them were extremely nice, kind, and friendly. They went out of their way to check on me several times and remind me that I could get a refill on my drink. They gall at the checkout even offered to bring me the desert that I had on rewards that was set to expire soon. Some of the best Customer Service I have seen in a while. - 5 stars. The Food - Well this is the number one reason to swing in. They have a number of great creations and options to pick more than one. They do let you customize a sandwich should you want. I think this is as good as it gets (unless you head to a "real" deli where YOU decide what is on the sandwich. This visit I had the Pick 2 (which is common) where I had a fantastic Club sandwich and a Chef salad. Pretty healthy over all. (I used extra dressing and ate brookie bites so scratch the healthiness). 4 stars Overall - This was a fantastic visit to an old favorite. The food could have just a little more wow... and by now you all know how I feel about the clean/institutional look and feel of eateries. A perfect lunch space. I'll be back often as they are good, healthyish, and close.

I've been following NS Custom Cakes Facebook page for quite some time and all the posts make my…read moremouth water! I was in the area, so of course I thought I'd swing by and check them out. The shop is small and there's not any seating (it's to go/take out only) but I was instantly greeted by the staff...and the large pastry case with tantalizing goodies. After inner dialogue that I indeed should not purchase one of everything due to potentials negative consequences on my waistline, I settled on 3 chocolate chip cannolis, one slice of lemon shortcake and one loaf of sourdough bread (don't worry, I shared). The cannolis were delicious and the shell was thicker and crisper than I'm used to. The lemon shortcake was not overly sweet, which was amazing and was very lemony (which I loved)! The sourdough was delicious and made perfect grilled cheeses! Although I didn't order any, they had a great selection of savory lunch items. Definitely next time! (A helpful hint - if you're trying to indulge in a cannoli on the way home in a vehicle, I suggest skipping the powdered sugar. The evidence was very hard to hide )

Great signage, walked in and wow bang the amount of different items to choose from really was something else. The place was decorated very nice and the people were just wonderfully wonderful! While I could not buy anything because I have a dairy allergy and gluten intolerant my stomach started aching and mouth started to water. It really smelled and looked that good to think about possibly worth getting sick over trying some of this. I will bring people to the bakery / deli so they can try it. My bet is it will be a hit for anyone who tries it. I wish I took pics of the food you would be amazed. The portion sizes they had on all their items were very nice and prices were not gourmet prices they were right on. now for me they said they do gluten free I just need dairy free as well. Most people who are dairy allergy end up being gluten free.. google it.. and most dairy free or gluten free baking packages usually have both. So for my sake I hope they can manage to do some from time to time which they said they would. till then those non allergy people - enjoy this place.
