    The service has definitely improved.. friendly .. the food was made fresh to order and was very good .. all the ingredients were fresh and crisp ... restaurant was clean and the tables were all clean

    Skimpy French dip
    Chain B.

    The service was fine. The food tastes fine. My issue is the skimpy sandwiches. I got a French dip. I posted a pic. I am no expecting a big pile of meat overflowing the bun so I do expect more that 2 little thin slices of meat. It make it a La Croix of sandwiches. It's like a couple pieces of bread drove by a cow once. Meat-ish flavored. Y'all can do better.

    Usually we hit the Jason's Deli after visiting my mothers grave. But none of us were hungry at the time so we hit here instead later in the day. Not too busy around noon on the Wednesday before Thanksgiving. Servers were nice. Plenty of seating. I liked the New Yorker over the Ruben. Both served hot and come with one side. Potato salad on the sour side. But I liked it over the tomato and cucumber salad. I'd probably pick Jason's next time, especially with their free self serve ice cream. But it was a good alternative to driving out to the grave site again just for a sandwich.

    There's the one little avocado slice that cost $1.25. That's how the sandwich looked when I received it. Looks appetizing (insert sarcasm)

    In all honesty I'm going to blame this review on myself..... Why you ask, because I continue to return and each time it's worse than the last. I need to realize that all McAlister's in Shelby County, TN. Are absolutely horrid. The staff is rude, the place is usually filthy and my food is never prepared the way I order it. They're always out of food too. I ordered a club sandwich with no mustard, of course there was mustard on it. I paid for avocado and there was 1 little slice on it. At this point it's now comical just how bad the food/service is.

    The DeWitt Coalition Seniors

    We the seniors at the DeWitt Coalition Center would like to thank the restaurant manager at the Collierville Tennessee location for his gracious generosity and donation to our Valentine's Day Gala for our seniors. The seniors really enjoyed their day it really meant the world to them and we appreciate everything that you done and such great service. I have also delivered a thank you card with the pictures of the seniors at their Valentine Gala to the Collierville location. Again we are so appreciative and thankful for your generosity.

    Veggie spud

    This location is a hit or miss. I love the food mccalisters offers but majority of the time is always something wrong with my order. Today I received my veggie spud with BURNT peppers. They burned the pepper and preceded to put it on the potato anyway? I'm very upset.

    Southwest Cobb salad
    Stephanie P.

    I really love McAlister's menu. Of all the deli style restaurants, it has always been my favorite. If I want a soup, salad, or potato, I always come here. There are only two issues with this place. First, no matter what I order for my husband, he is never impressed. He goes for the different sandwiches and is always still hungry. So I try not to come here if I am feeding both of us. Second (and the main issue), is that there is no control or review process over orders. If you are eating in, this is not an issue but it is always an issue on to go orders. I always pull out each item and it never fails. I will be missing a salad dressing, side item, something. I have learned that this is an issue so I check my orders beforehand and correct it before I leave. The managers need to start hiring or instilling some of that Chick-fil-A attitude in their employees, because it is clear that they do not give a darn. (Actually after reading some other reviews..... maybe the franchise owner needs to hire some new managers.)

    The pimento cheese extravaganza
    Barrett O.

    It's time to do an updated and more in-depth review because things change here with management and staff so here goes. Today's visit was very pleasant and the young folks behind the counter, in the kitchen and food deliverer were on the ball, and it pretty busy so thumbs up. The place was neat and ran and everything was well stocked so another check mark. My soup and salad were good and man that pimento cheese BLT was really terrific. I thoroughly enjoyed lunch with my sweetheart today before having to leave town and we agreed that we will put Mcalister's back in our regular rotation for lunch spots. I put the poster up for the pimento cheese specials and trust me when I tell you that the pimento cheese is really tasty. I practically grew up on the stuff and I am pretty picky about the flavor. It's cheesey and has a rich flavor and it's the real deal. PLUS they gave us 20% off because we'rr both Navy vets, so hey all you vets make sure to sound off to get your deal.

    This place has done a complete 180. Two straight Togo orders that were perfect! New employees are really nice.

However, no impact to service generally. During our visit, there did seem to be something happening with the cocktails as several members ordered the same cocktail, but it was clear they were not made the same as the color and taste were very different. First time experiencing this issue and we did bring it to their attention. Starter: general tso's tso's cauliflower. Brunch: The honey hot chicken and waffles is my go to when I want a sweet and savory meal. The maple syrup is my favorite and really bring the dish together. Cocktail: raspberry Rita. Simple but delicious.

My favorite mule in Memphis is their Blue Suede Shoes, highly recommend trying this cocktail! We started off our meal with the General Taos Cauliflower - a must! I ended up getting the Quinoa burger. Not my first choice, but I had dietary restrictions this night. I prefer their other burgers and bowls. Our waiter, Brian, was great. He tried to point me in the right direction entree wise. He and the manager made sure we had everything we needed! Great for a quiet evening or a conversational dinner with friends. We celebrated a birthday and they even gave us a free dessert!
