We were excited to have a McAlister's Deli near our hotel. We came in around 5 for dinner and many things were out. They were out of Mac and Cheese and Fresh fruit. I had to keep changing my order to find something they did have. The store wasn't very packed and they kept forgetting items on our order. Lots of places to sit inside. My mom had a garden salad and my dad had the potato soup. I had the kids meal garden salad. Overall, we were happy to have our meals. read more

Chronically a very mid experience. Food, ambience, or service aren't a favorite. I go to McAlister's when friends invite me, but not as my choice, even though I live conveniently nearby. The potential to be better probably exists, but the quality over all areas needs so much improvement that I'll choose to spend my time and money elsewhere every time. read more

Staff was friendly and food was served promptly. The choose 2 option is great because you can mix & max options.

The food was ok, nothing to write home about. I ordered my sandwich on croissants, they didn't make it like that. So I sent it back and they redid it. When I got it, they didn't put any mustard. I had to go back and get prepackaged mustard. It was frustrating because my partner was waiting for me to get my meal right! read more

Service was absolutely fantastic however it was extremely cold inside and had to get the food to go. I loved what I got but should have asked for more meat in the pepper jack turkey sandwich and the Broccoli cheddar soup I don't recommend didn't have a lot of flavor and not nearly enough cheese. I had some of my mom's Caesar salad and it was delicious read more

I keep finding reasons to why I dislike this place so much. What's the point of customizing your food if you can't even get it right? Ordered half McAlister's Club and half Savannah Salad. For less than $10 it's a steal. Not... To my surprise the sandwich was lacking in every department you could possibly imagine! Puny pieces of turkey, and half a pathetic slice of bacon which I had to pick out. I also asked for other veggies and they were missing from my order. The bread consumed most of the sandwich. Biting into it all I could taste was bread and cheese, no deli meat because it was practically nonexistent!! The salad on the other hand was plentiful. It was a meal on its own while my husband's sandwich was made perfectly. This was the final straw. The food here sucks, don't waste your time on mediocre food that you can make so much better at home or get somewhere else that's worth your money! read more

I love McAlisters Deli. There is only one location in the city. Staff is always usually pleasant. Service isn't super fast but you never have to wait super long. When you order I line the order is always pretty accurate. I rated it 3 stars because the restaurant is never clean. From the floor to the tables to waiting bench near the to go area. For this reason I never dine in. read more

Way over priced for the quality of the sandwich. Service is always lacking. The cashier always makes me feel like I am bothering them for providing them my business. read more

It never ceases to amaze me how they can screw up an order. It's a computer order nonetheless and they still send a gallon of sweet tea instead of unsweet tea. Laziness is when you cannot read the order or do not care enough to get it right. read more

Staff was courteous and efficient. We came in right at a dinner rush and yet the food came in a timely manner, I enjoyed the veggie sandwich. I would give five stars but the house salad is sad and is the epitome of the reason people hate salads. read more

Waited almost 30 minutes for my take-out order. The manager finally came out from the back and let everyone know that they were out of some product in the back. Left without my order and having to wait 2 to 3 days for a refund. Never again. read more

Everything I eat here is devastatingly delicious. One of the better chains. My only advice is bring a sweater and be ready to hear 2007 sad songs. read more

First time I been here. I had the Reuben, it was a good quality sandwich. It wasn't corn beef, which is what a Reuben calls for. So, they get an E for effort. The place is spacious and clean. The staff was professional and on point. Lots of parking read more

The only reason I'm not offering a perfect score on this restaurant, is due to the fact that the AC was way too cold. Make sure you dress warm so you can enjoy your excellent food that was delivered expeditiously to our party of four. The service was prompt. A clean place, including the well cared for restrooms. The price was very fair. Where else can you get a salad and 1/2 sandwich for $8.97? We'll be back! read more

I love McAlister's food, but the customer service at this location sucks! Well at least at 8:30pm on a Thursday. So, it could just be lazy teenagers that have poor work ethic and bad customer service, but this is this is the second time to have poor service. I realize that it's almost closing time, but in my book, that's no excuse!! I work in a doctors office, and I'd never act annoyed at someone coming in late to their appointment--at least not that they could tell. read more

Always get our order incorrect or have missing items. Also, paid extra for avocado with my order and I literally a tiny slice. read more

I ordered the "BLT A"the bacon was packed and perfectly cooked then I got the side of tortilla soup and ohhh-Mmm-Gee it was perfect

Three and a half stars for reasonably priced, reasonably fresh food served with always friendly--but inconsistent--service. If you're not in a hurry and want a wholesome, filling meal, this is your place. Mcallister's features a broad menu of fresh salads, sandwiches, and soups that hit the spot rain or shine! Quality ingredients, flavor, and value alone would make this establishment a solid 4 star recommendation. Portions are generous--salads are HUGE, even the "cup" of soup is more like a bowl-sized serving, and potatoes are gi-normous! I recommend the half and half (half salad, half soup or sandwich option) as it offers the best of both fresh and hearty made with healthful, whole ingredients. Big kudos to the "spud ole!", a heaping helping of cheese, chili, salsa and jalapeños --highly recommended for those partial to starchy carbs. Counter service often has a line to the door, as McAlister's is quite popular with the lunch crowd. Family friendly ambience is welcoming and staff take orders with a smile and fine Coastal Bend hospitality. The only potential blemish to sully McAlister's otherwise quad-stellar rating in my book is the spotty wait time for odd things. On more than one occasion I have waited more than 20 minutes for my meal to be served. One time, we waited more than 15 minutes before being advised that there was no chili left--Something that really should've been apparent at the time of ordering or shortly after. Improved attention from management would likely prevent such snafus from occurring and eliminate long wait times for pre-prepared items such as salads and soups. Despite the potentially long wait times, McAlisters remains one of my favorite options for value, quality, and freshness in the coastal bend!--I just come when I am not rushed and can enjoy a leisurely meal. read more

McAlister's Deli - There is even a Lenten menu for those observing the season. - Sandwiches Near Me - Corpus Christi, Texas

Definitely fresh ingredients good staff not a long wait time here at lunch on a Monday

I wish I would have gone into the restroom prior to ordering- dirty- broken fixtures- dining room dirty and in disrepair? I don't get it? They obviously busy enough to hire a plumber and cleaning/ maintenance person. No hand sanitizer! Food was okay not great- I really liked their sweet tea! read more

Freezing cold inside. Take a parka if you want to eat in. We Couldn't enjoy our food it was so cold. Everyone was complaining but management was unconcerned & did nothing. read more

After a couple of years of not coming here, tried it again. Ordered the same thing today that I ordered last night online. It came out more expensive because the cashier didn't know how to sub the cup with a bowl for the "Choose Two" special. Anyhow, dined in today as opposed to picking up to go. I wish I hadn't. This place is a wreck & falling apart. Dust everywhere, torn upholstery & paint falling off the walls. Get it together McAlisters! Food & drink is fine. Fix what's broken and or worn out & I will continue to come back. read more

Both restrooms are filthy and it took forever to get our order, and we were the only ones in line.

I love McAllister's; it's a solid place to get a good sandwich or spud and usually you can expect the same at any location. Usually I like doing the half sandwich with soup deal, and their tea is a must. I like getting the Arnold Palmer. The service here is very nice, one of them even came up to my table to refill my drink. Their new Cuban sandwich is good, but their chicken Caesar wrap is not according to my friend. He said if the chicken was warm, it would have been better. All in all, this place never fails to satisfy me when I want a good deli sandwich with tea. read more

The servers don't take much pride, I had a to go order, and it was handed to me with my soup and gravey all flipped upside down. I didn't appreciate that, I would have been very upset if I would have made it home and the soup and gravey were all on the bottom of the bag. read more

McAlister's, a grilled chicken salad is supposed to have grilled chicken in it, not chopped up lunch meat. Also, your servers deal with customers like they're in a mortuary. My 2-star review is a gift. read more

I spoke with Tina on the phone, she was every disrespectful and laughing at me when I couldn't understand what she said. When I asked to speak with a manager she laughed again. Very inappropriate, would not recommend this place and I won't be eating here anymore. read more

everything here is delicious... the lady chef's food reminded me my mom, same taste.. I definitely recomend this restaurant.

My other pricey sandwich place stopped bringing food to the table and started handing out buzzers. That ended my being a customer there so I gave this place a try. McAlisters is REALLY good. I had the Spud Ole and a Southwest Salad and both were good. I did the "Choose Two" option, which was a good value. Iced tea was excellent and the service was friendly. I hope they keep it up. This was a fresh change for me. read more

Freshest salad - Savannah Chopped Salad with crisp green,cranberries, almonds,chicken and feta. Also my sandwich favorite - cranberry orange club. Delicious. Monsterous servings, you will not leave hungry and the best brewed tea in the area, of course. If you haven't been lately, make a point of dropping by - and don't forget to try the desserts. Yum read more

The food was amazing as well as the owner and staff except for our server Kaitlyn R.. My grandmother had recommended this place for our dinner because she loved the Lobster roll. Apparently this used to be a special and was an off menu item. When we asked Kaitlyn about the Lobster roll she informed us that they do not have such a thing and do not carry any lobster. My grandmother asked if she would check with the chef to make sure of it and Kaitlyn copped an attitude and said " I work here everyday we do not have lobster". I insisted after that for her to just ask the owner to make sure. She yelled from our table to across the bar where he was standing and said " we don't have lobster , right?" And he said actually we do and I can accommodate that. She was rude the rest of the dining experience because she probably embarrassed on being wrong. My grandmother asked for more dressing my for her salad and that took 16 minutes for her to get. When trying to make small talk while she was making the bananas Foster she was short and seemed irritated. My grandmother is dying of cancer and the last thing she needs is someone being rude to her for no reason. The owner was great and attentive! My grandmother and her friends said after that experience they would not be returning because of how egotistical she was. I recommend we just order take out from now on since we love the food and the owners wife's desserts. I was in the service industry for 10+ years and can't wrap my head around why she couldn't just go ask and made it a big deal since she works off tips and then was awful the rest of Our dining experience. I would 100% return to this restaurant if she wasn't my server. Would have been 5 stars except for our service with Kaitlyn. read more

GREAT deli. its better than Jason's Deli in my book. the only thing Jason's has them beat on is the salad bar being McAlister's doesnt have a salad bar. their food makes up for it, if you want a good meal this is a place to go. they're known for their tea and its damn good too. great salads, sandwhiches, subs, pananis and spuds. the cheddar & broc soup is awsome too. read more

McAlister's Deli - Sandwiches Near Me - Corpus Christi, Texas

0 stars if I could. Placed an online order at 8:15PM and didn't walk out until 9:02 with half my order missing. 2 employees were helpful and the rest were just annoyed that anyone walked in. I won't be back and I'll tell everyone I know not to go back. They didn't make my sandwich due to them running out of a bread and were going to just let me walk out knowing they didn't have a completed order then looked upset when I wanted a refund on my missing items. read more

It's not too often I eat out and can't receive items off the menu on a chain restaurant. Or eat in a clean place (see photo of public view). I ordered salad, water, and side of Mac and cheese. Well, no bottle water available. And, no Mac and cheese available until 20 minutes later. This was told to me only after I waited for 15 minutes for my To Go salad order, the Southwest Cobb. Sheesh. The reason? Too busy and it's a popular item. I guess all the open tables were for people they expected to come in very soon. The kicker? My salad was missing half of the items that were supposed to be included (corn, tortilla strips and guac). I guess I paid 11 bucks for doctored up iceberg lettuce. Won't be visiting again. read more

My husband and I visit this McAlister's location frequently (1-2 times per week), and usually it's a great experience. The food is good and rightly priced. It's a healthy, quick option for lunch and never disappoints. Shaka is a wonderful employee; she is always helpful and friendly. She checks on us just the right amount of times and makes sure we have everything we need. She deserves some recognition and a raise! Employee of the year! read more
