I normally wouldn't give a deli a 4 star but this place beats Katizinger deli hands down. Everything is so fresh here unlike the other deli. The service is great. You can tell they enjoy working together. The place is extremely clean as well. I ordered the Italian sandwich and it was absolutely delicious! They give you plenty. And I ordered the fresh fruit as a side. You can't go wrong coming here. Give them a try and you just might see me because I do plan on coming back. read more

Food is decent once they get order right. But I constantly get the feeling that having the nerve to show up in person is interfering with catering and door dash orders. I've been told on two occasions this year that a dine-in order would be at least a 30 minute wait "because we have a huge Doordash order". Yesterday, the sole front line employee rang up my order incorrectly, then just turned and walked away from us to chat with a delivery driver . On returning we started reworking my order. Was interrupted again by a member of the kitchen crew about a different delivery. This place should just shut down their retail operation and just fire up a ghost kitchen instead. read more

No complaints on the taste or quality of food. Service was... well I was the only one there so it was quick and staff was extremely polite. Despite 3-4 workers standing around, restaurant was dirty inside. Tables weren't picked up and trash on the ground. My major complaints, the price. I can't see myself paying over $15 for a meal for half a sandwich, cup of soup, and a drink. read more

We often go here and they are out of spuds. This is 1/3 of their menu that they can't serve. They readily admit that most evenings they dine have spuds by 5:30 read more

This location was delicious and service was great. Hard to find this great of an experience these days. Tamika was so friendly and made our lunch memorable! read more

This is just another sandwich chain shop. The food was decent but nothing I would crave to have again. The service was slow but the people were friendly. They have a variety of sandwiches, soups, and salads to choose from. I did appreciate they had a pick two option. They have hot and cold sandwich options. There is seating inside, and they even have a meeting space that can be reserved. read more

I placed a delivery order for a Cuban Sandwich from the McAlister's Deli in Hilliard. The sandwich itself looked great when I opened the takeout box. The bread looked fresh. When I bit into it, the sandwich was very tasty. The top half of the bread was very crunchy on the top and soft after the crust. Unfortunately, the bottom half of the bread got soggy from the pulled sour pork they used. The portion of the meat and cheese were not bad, but at the price paid, seemed a bit light. Overall, the sandwich was good. I wish the pork was sliced, rather than pulled, like other Cuban sandwiches I have had. But, I will be ordering again as I want to try their other sandwiches. read more

McAlister's Deli - Cuban Sandwich - Salad Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

McAlister's Deli is always my safe choice for lunch! Every time I come here, I can eat quickly and satisfyingly. The meals are fresh, the taste is stable, and there are rich choices, from hot sandwiches, salads to potato lunch boxes, suitable for different tastes and eating habits. The most recommended are their Club Sandwich and Spud Max baked potatoes, which are full of portions and taste great, and every bite is satisfying. Their McAlister's Famous Sweet Tea is even more classic, not too sweet, just right, it's simply unreasonable not to order a cup here! The service has always been very reliable, the staff are very patient, sometimes I hesitate to order food, they will kindly help me make recommendations. The environment in the store is also clean and comfortable, whether it is dining in or take-out experience is great. In short, McAlister's is one of the most stable healthy fast food in my mind, with a super high cost performance, worth trying again and again! read more

Rated 2 out of 5 stars Someone should explain to McAllisters... Someone should explain to McAllisters what a deli actually is. I could buy a pig, raise a pig, butcher a pig, fry up the bacon and create a BLT in half the time it takes them to make it. A two hour lunch break and still got back to work late. And not they were not slammed. They were not very busy for lunchtime on a Friday. And no I wasn't far away. There were 12 people waiting for carry out orders and all the people at tables were complaining. Looked like they had one cashier/food runner and one person in the kitchen. read more

We could have made our meal at home... nothing special about it. Meat in the Italian sandwich was cut way too thick, and the dressing made it soggy unlike other sandwich places, probably because the bread isn't toasted. It also appeared that instead of the grilled chicken that you can see in the savannah salad on the website, I was given shredded lunch meat instead! It was my first time here but I don't think I'll be back to try something else considering my experience. The iced tea was good. read more

Great salad/Potato and French dip sandwich. I came for the tea. I heard it was the best in town. Thank goodness I got half sweet and half unsweet because it was extremely sweet. I ordered carry out from the app. My drink was free since it was my first time. The app was very user-friendly and allowed for ordering of extra items. However, I ordered and paid for extra items but didn't get all of them. Kind of interesting because I watched the young lady packing the bags and she was doing an excellent job of checking things off with a highlighter as she bagged them. I guess it wasn't as thorough as it looked. Anyways, the food was good. I definitely recommend it. And I will be going again. read more

So just stopped at this place to get some food. I waited for a at least three minutes standing up by the register to order . To door dash or or GrubHub drivers walk in after we do and get waited on immediately while we are standing near waiting to be ordered the girl that eventually got behind the counter to wait on them serve them first never acknowledge that we were even in the building to order and sit and eat no acknowledgment from the establishment. It's kind of ridiculous. That order takeout is taking priority of our storefront when there wasn't a single soul eating in the place besides the two of us who are going to eat there hope take out is awesome will not eat there . read more

It tastes the same no matter which one you go to in the nation. I'm not a sweet tea drinker, but if you are then you're in heaven! Get the pick two and don't be afraid to share. The AC works great too so you might want a light jacket if you get cold. It's a counter order service so go place your order and then pick your seat while they cook and deliver it to you. read more

I love this place. Okay Keto people run to this place. They are not fooling around. Any sandwich on this menu will work, just be aware of the sauces. I ordered the BLT-A. Bacon about a pound, Lettuce Sliced tomatoes No bun They threw in ranch dressing on the side. This was a lot of food for the price. Give them a try, I recommend it. The ladies in the back do a great job. One of my favorite places to go. read more

Since opening I've been to McAlister's Deli a few different times. Let me open this review up with the information that I'm a big fan and I've not had a bad experience, only good service and even better food. McAlisters offers bigger then normal baked potatoes with different toppings. I've not had a bad one yet! There pick 2 is always a good choice. Sandwiches, Soups , baked potatoes and salads. They offer daily fresh made teas and lemonades. And have a wide assortment of desserts. I was so excited for the Hilliard-Rome location. (Won't lie, I would have rather had it closer to W. Broad St or Georgesvilles) but I'll take it closer to home no matter what. The staff is still new so I'm sure they are working out some learning issues, but I'll also add that any restaurant establishment on Hilliard-Rome road is always going to be busier then other locations of the same place around town. So please go Easy on the workers as they are probably over worked and under paid. read more

McAllister's is a great place to eat when you want deli or sandwiches always fresh weight staff is incredible. Highly recommend.

Well over 20 minutes and still no food. Place was not busy at all when we walked in. Maybe three couples in here. I think 9 of us are now standing here waiting for our food. 3.4 stars is far too generous. Panda across the street smelled so good when I walked in. I should have listened to my nose... read more

McAlister's Deli has so many options. I ordered ahead and did pick up. My Oder was correct! This is a bonus as often ordering pick up is asking for a problem. Not here! I appreciate this! The restaurant is clean and staff have been friendly everytime. read more

Was a "5-Star" place for me for a year or more, but for some reason, have been hit with four disappointments in a row. Cold food, undercooked food (a baked potato should not crunch like an apple), and mistakes in the order. Ordered a chicken salad on croissant and got a chicken breast on roll. Ordered an unsweetened tea with lemon and received sweet tea. Ordered chili and received broccoli cheddar soup. The only reason a 3-star rating is appropriate instead of a 1, is because my wife's order was okay. When your dinner is nothing but a loaded baked potato and the potato sucks, your evening is off to a very bad start. Guess I need to take a break and go elsewhere. They are losing. 3-times-per-week customer. read more

So close to 5 stars... So close... McAllister's King Club is the biggest, best value for a club sandwich anywhere. I purposely took a picture of the back side of the sandwich, because most pictures are that perfect shot of the middle, where every sandwich looks amazing. But this is the worst angle of the sandwich and it's still so pretty... I outlined one HALF of the sandwich. Yeah -- That's one half. The other side looks smaller because of the way it's crammed into the to-go box, because it's so gigantic. This thing is a beast. I've also had the New Yorker, which is pretty good. And I should mention that the potato salad is a great side. The only reason I took away one star is because I've also ordered the Memphian which is also awesome--when it's made right. But, two times I've had to send it back when it came to me with literally just bread and meat (no lettuce, tomato, onion, or cheese), and another time the bread was too stale to eat. This should be a smaller deduction, but Yelp doesn't allow partial stars, and I can't give it 5 in good conscious knowing they've gotten my order wrong a few times. But if the King Club sounds good to you, you are going to get a 5+ star sandwich every time. Again, that's HALF of the sandwich I outlined... read more

Everything was sub average and overpriced. The Ruben meat was barely warm. The house deli special was extremely underwhelming the bread was so hard it tasted like the toast you would heat up then forget outside for an hour because rockhard. The soups were good and the sides were actually pretty good but the sandwiches flavor left a lot to wish for. Fir almost $10 a sandwich I would rather stick with the same old economy sandwich shops or the same old boring Panera. read more

I asked if they had Pastrami. I even repeated to make sure that they could make it. I got a turkey sandwich. The manager delivered it. She said she would get me one and apologized . Brought back a Rueben (Corn Beef). They must not be able to or have no idea what Pastrami is. Nice restaurant. Just not knowledgeable and I'm being generous. read more

Absolutely the worst!! We have ordered from McAlister's for a few meetings, and while sometimes things don't always go as planned, we enjoyed the food. Well, say goodbye to those days!! Today, in our group order, we got cold potatoes with a handful of veggies, no cheese, and no butter. A open baggie with 8 tortilla chips as the bag of chips and a southwest chicken sandwich that was missing all cheese, a lot of chicken, and the extra avocado ordered was a nice shade of yuck brown. Now one of us got extra bacon on the BLT, 28 pieces!! They once were good now, well it's more of a crap shoot on what you're gonna get!! read more

Pretty nice place they've got here. Nice staff and of course it's clean because it's new. I picked the Memphian and my wife got the broccoli cheddar soup and Pepper Jack Turkey.

Very terrible customer service I went in for my our lunch break and there was one customer ahead of me. I ordered a half potato and a half a sandwich which should have been 1099. It was the choose two and I ordered a large Sprite, which was $3.59. When it rung me up, it told me the total was $17.38 and then I asked him how much the taxes were. He just looked at me and laughed and then told me that's the price so then I got my receipt and then he charged me an extra dollar 59 for the sandwich and he told me it's on the board, then I said that's fine. I went to my table and 17 minutes then I finally went up to the counter and I asked about my food and they said it would be a few more moments so I told them to give my money back and then yes that's what I'm calling it did not know if it was a boy or girl it was so much worried about its fingernails clicking on the screen then trying to go back in the back and help out so then when I asked for a refund he/it acted like he was giving me a refund and then gave me a receipt for zero amount dollars on it which I had already knew that was a scam. He told me I refunded it then I said where is my receipt he said they don't do that so I asked for a manager and then she was able to do the refund to pocket $17.38 from me, and by the way by all that time happening, they still have not made me my food would not recommend this place read more

McAlister's Deli - Sub wrapper - Salad Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

4.0 Stars (DURING COVID) Location Overview: Please search this restaurant on Hilliard-Rome Rd at the stop-light intersection in the same shopping Plaza as Meijer next to Starbucks. While this little building can hold quite a few parties of customers... the parking is always trash. They are following COVID policies. Customer Service: The customer service is really the only thing I can say needs to be tweeked. Sometimes when I come here the younger staff seem to be very soft spoken and it just seems like they do no want to talk/engage with customers. Quality/Quantity: The quality of the food is better than Panera. I love the fresh and light eating from here. Its great. The quantity of the food is more than enough. Any "spud" meal that you get will have you eating for 2 days. Side Notes: Do NOT park right in front of the building park in the area off to the side....you will get stuck by cars trying to get to the drive through for Starbucks read more

Food is delicious and service A+++++. Potato salad is yummy, very much like homemade. Highly recommend.

The food is delicious. However, customer service and response is horrific. Very little care, politeness or even willingness to do the bare minimum from workers. Over 90% of time something is missing from my order. If I did door dash they try to blame door dash (even when ticket doesn't say one of two bags or indicate another bag) and ask for us to come get it. One time offered a slice of cake. Never an apology or offer to refund or GF for a free meal to remedy the mistake. Sat on hold for long time for minimal effort or service recovery. Food is good but do not expect even adequate service read more

We normally love McAlisters but will NEVER return to this one. Couple things: 1. It was FREEZING inside. The heat seemed either not on or not working. 2. The potatoes were terrible! 3. The workers seemed more concerned with their cell phone than helping customers. 4. A table with old plates and food on it with plenty of time/workers to clean it. It was not busy. Disappointing experience for a family of 5 paying $70 for lunch. read more

I love the food from this deli, but the people keep me coming back. Although I'm going through chemo and aren't always smiling, by the time I leave I am smiling.
