    Best lunch, dinner spot for an evening of relaxation and the best meal you can enjoy. Salads, soups, baked potatoes you name it this place is the most coziest and most delicious place to eat. To go orders are easy, and on the spot orders to. This place makes you comfortable.

    Un chopped red onions.

    Tried the brand new location. Its nice but I don't see much difference of the interior. I ordered chili just to go onna check out the new spot. Chili was fine however I asked for some chopped red onion for sprinkling on top. I received a bowl full of uncut onions. What am I supposed to do with these? If I was eating on the run...this would be ridiculous. I chopped them when I got home but if I wanted to prepare my own food I wouldn't have paid you. This is just pure laziness and unthoughtful of your customers. I don't trust this kitchen. I'm an app holder and frequent diner. However if this is the work product I don't want anything else from here

    The customer service by general manager, Leo Bucaliu, was beyond terrible. My wife and I placed an online order to expedite the process and after over half an hour of waiting past our estimated completion time, Leo claimed that the order was never submitted to the kitchen. And this was after a different employee told me that the order "will be ready soon." The order was supposed to be ready for pick-up at 11:38am and I did not get it until 12:10pm. Leo offered no apology or compensation - this is entirely unacceptable from a large retail restaurant.

    Nice to have outdoor dining option, but maybe a little more distancing?

    UPDATE: Thank you, Makayla, for responding to my pickle issue. We appreciate your gesture to make things right, and we'll be back again soon! We've been coming to McAlister's Deli for many years and really like their sandwiches (especially the muffaletta, which has been dropped). I've been leery of dining out for the past several months, though, due to covid. Lately, we've ventured out for more takeout. Their sandwiches have always been pricey, but they are worth it because of the quality and quantity of the meat. They really pile it on and it is delicious. Usually, there's enough for us to split one order or save half for later. The staff is always friendly and seem to be taking the necessary precautions for covid. I can't testify to the cleanliness of the tables, since we haven't been dining in. Hopefully, they are more on the ball than they were before the pandemic, when table cleanup didn't seem to be a high priority. This week, we both ordered the New Yorker sandwiches. The layers of corned beef and pastrami tasted great and the swiss cheese, mustard and marbled rye made it delightful. The mac & cheese sides had the usual creamy texture that we're used to. I should have learned, though, that it is best to verify that the order is correct before driving home. The last 2 visits have resulted in the disappointment of missing out on the dill pickle spears. The first time, I didn't think much of it, but when it happened again on Monday, I decided to call the number on my receipt and ask about it. The girl that answered the phone told me that they don't give out pickles anymore, unless you ask for them. How was I supposed to know that I needed to ask for a pickle??? She said she wanted me to talk to the manager, because he might want to do something for me. I suppose he might ask me if I want the 4 dill pickle spears that I had missed out on?? Well, no, that didn't happen. He explained that it was a corporate decision to hold the pickles unless the customer asks for them. I guess that sort of cleared it up. Reminded me of years ago when American Airlines saved tens of thousands of dollars by eliminating olives from salads they served. Anyway, the manager also explained that the online orders contain a checkbox for requesting a pickle. Well, we ordered old school, at the counter. He said he was trying to train his employees to ask if customers wanted pickles, but I guess we just need to remember to request them. Not a big deal, McAlister's but I see from other reviews that this policy seems to rub other people the wrong way. Sometime in the near future, will I have to request 2 slices of bread with my sandwich?

    You can't go wrong with a quick bite at McAllisters Deli. Everything on the menu is drool worthy (if you like salads, subs, and spuds) and the kids meals are actually adorable. 99 cents if you dine in. For my pick 2 I had the southwest salad and the spicy southwest chicken sandwich. After eating the salad I had to get a to go box for the sandwich. If you don't like very sweet tea I suggest getting it half sweet/half unsweet

I'd say my total time waiting to order was 5 minutes and my total time waiting for food was 10, even with how crowded it was. I ordered the White Chicken Parmesan. I've never had gluten free pasta before this and there was no strange taste or texture. The sauce was bright and very lemony. I will say the pasta was in oddly short pieces so don't expect to twirl your noodles on your fork! The chicken was well cooked and seasoned with a nice crust. The raw tomato addition didn't do too much for me but I didn't mind it overall. The soda fountain is an adorable tap that boasted drinks like cola, sparkling lemonade, cream soda, root beer and more. I'm not usually a fan of off brand cola but this one was great, if not a little watery for my taste. My pasta dish overall was $15.50, which was a great price for the amount I received. The plate was large and easily more than one portion. This is definitely one of the best "health food" places I've been to. Will definitely be back!

The Waygu burger and sweet potato fries is also amazing. Don't forget to check out their desserts - we love their carrot cake and chocolate cake. The inside and outside are both super cute. The outside has a really good sized patio. Don't forget, they also have every day mimosas! Highly recommend!

I had a promo, which definitely made it worth it. You pick the protein that you want. A few of them have an upcharge if it's not chicken. The salad looks sizeable too.

They offer a pretty good selection of salads, like Greek, Thai, Cobb, Caesar, and Ranch, as well as dressings of your choice. I like their Thai salad, which has cucumber slices, shredded carrots, romaine lettuce, and red cabbage. They are all very fresh. The dressing is actually what I like the most. It's peanuty, spicy but not too strong, with a subtle tangy and sour note. For my protein option, I've tried their chicken and tofu. The chicken is fine. I like the tofu better though, which is moist, tender, and savory. They also offer seasonal lemonade drink. I've had their cucumber mint lemonade, which is super refreshing especially on a hot Texas summer day! The service is fast. I was there one time during the peak lunch hour. The vehicle line was long, but it moved pretty quick. Give it a try if you want a quality salad at a great price!
