I was hired to conduct a training for a company in Dayton, and they ordered boxed lunches at McAlister's Deli. I can't speak for the ambiance of the restaurant, as the food was delivered. But I know the food was fresh, well-made, and filling. The meal was made of club sandwiches, a bag of Vickie's potato chips, and a somewhat oversized (and tasty) chocolate chip cookie. The sandwiches were made well, crammed full of fresh meats in between soft toasted bread. It was a satisfying meal & good fuel for the rest of the training, and the day. read more

Delicious traditional deli sandwiches and some yummy new ones too! I tried the Turkey jalapeno crunch sandwich WoW!! Unique Salads too, see the photos of the menu i posted. They are famous for their stuffed Spuds! We ordered One Slice of Carrot Cake $6. It was just out of the deep freeze, hard as a rock! But as it softened it was epic with lots of nuts and cream cheese frosting! Service was great! Prices super reasonable! I'll return read more

Do not go here! Wait time will definitely be 30 minutes in length. Me and my husband were 1 of 3 guests in the entire restaurant and we waited and waited and waited. We ordered from the menu, made no substitutions, and we just sat. It took 30 minutes and we only ordered 2 sandwiches and chips. This place needs help in a real way. We watched one family just walk out. read more

One cashier and a line out the door!! How do they not have staff at a sandwich shop at noon on a Monday?!? - duh!!!! I should have known it was busy when I couldn't find parking and had to park at the Fazolis next door. It took 20 minutes just to place our order. Do not go here if you get a short lunch. The Olive garden around the corner would have been faster for the same price. The cashier asked if we qualified for the 60 and over senior discount. I'm 52 and my husband is 56. I wanted to give our McAllister reward number for points but my husband was so angry about the long wait he said "we don't have time for that crap!" so I didn't get my points. We were given teeny tiny water cups. Usually I ask for a large cup but my husband's anger over the wait threw me off my game. I read the positive reviews, and they all refer to a different location. Miller land has no drive thru. My husband gets the New Yorker and the chili every time we come here. That's why we come. They have no New Yorker at Panera. If they did, we'd probably never come here because panera is so much faster. I get the chicken salad sandwich on a croissant and broccoli cheddar soup. It's delicious. We arrived at noon and our food finally came to us at 12:45. My husband has an important work appointment after lunch and the 45 minute wait for food was tragic. This establishment ruined our only lunch together this week. The pickles are not outstanding. They are normal pickles. read more

I have very little money and can only afford takeout once a month the only reason I picked this place was because I wanted carrot cake and they didn't send it with my order but charged me for it. I will never order from them and suggest you don't either. read more

Everything could improve, I ordered a hot sandwich, I guess whoever made it wasn't made aware hot means hot! I stood in line 2 times trying to get my order fixed, I gave up on the line saw a person standing back where sandwiches came from. So I walked up were I could get a managers attention, my soup was very cool, sandwich was thrown together, everyone in my party said they had to eat whatever they had been served as they had to get back to work... I expect better especially with what my lunch cost... haven't been back... not looking good for m my return! read more

I got take out. The food was ok. It was done when they said it would be and pretty easy to pick up.

I love coming here for lunch when I'm dieting! Their chef salad to go is huge! I order in the app and the food comes pretty quickly! I think it's a great place to come and work as well! Their tortilla soup is very tasty and I think the employees are very nice and patient! I recommend 100% for lunch! read more

Highly recommend the French dip sandwich paired with their broccoli cheddar soup and iced tea! YUM!

Each time I've eaten here, everything was delicious. The carrot cake was my favorite.

Manager really helped us out with a family order after a difficult day of travel. Food was great and the extra desserts were super special. Really appreciate the manager's efforts to go above and beyond! read more

On a whim, we decided to switch up our usual stop on the way home from visiting grandma and grandpa. I searched Yelp for nearby restaurants and McAlister's popped up. "Let's go there!" I suggested when my husband said he had never been to a McAlister's. We were greeted immediately when we walked in, and the employee behind the counter said "I'll give you a second to look at the menu, just let me know when you're ready to order." When we were ready, it was a pick 2 combo for me (Tortilla Soup and McAlister's Club) and a McAlister's Club for my husband. We took our seat and our food was delivered a few short minutes later. It was just the thing we needed to break up a long car trip with a fussy kiddo. The food was fresh, the flavors were delicious, and the portion sizes hit the spot. They were even kind enough to bring us some applesauce and a small cookie for our little one. Speaking of little one, I had to use the Koala Kare to change LO into pajamas after the meal, and the bathrooms were clean, including the changing table. That jived with the cleanliness of the whole restaurant, which was a refreshing change from some places we have stopped recently. On our way out, a friendly employee chatted with us about LO and offered some complimentary cookies. I was happy for the road snacks and appreciated her additional wishes for a safe trip home. It turned out to be more than just a dinner stop, it was a much needed refreshment to charge us back up for our car trip. The quality of the food was matched by the courteousness of the staff - they seemed genuinely happy that we were there. I've found my new stop for when we visit the grandparents, and can't wait for my next chance to stop while passing through! read more

If you have a pickup order, they won't acknowledge you whatsoever. I love their food but this location's service has gone downhill sadly.

I ordered two meals for the price of 10.99 so when my total came up to $30 for two meals, I thought how did that happen so after sitting for a little while went back up to the front to have someone else other than the person who rang me up to explain to me where the extra almost 7 dollars extra came from and they explained that everything that had a P buy it was an enough charge or to me that wasn't made very clear and it would be nice to have the cashier stated OK I have you down for etc. etc. there's up charge on so so are you OK with that? I just feel like it should've been handled differently, especially the fact that I said it well what's the dollar 49 for all I was told was oh that's for the potato not saying hey this is an up charge.the soup was decent but the potato was just ok read more

We love McAlister's but this location continues to be so poorly ran that everything takes forever. It has been this way for years, we will not be giving them another chance after this last one. read more

Good food, cant beat the pick two combo. Nice and clean new restaurant, like that they even have a drive up window. read more

cashier was a total moron and so slow, food was bland and tasteless. used to be good. now nasty.

I have been here twice and the food has been excellent both times. Loved the chicken salad sandwich and today I had the chicken and dumpling soup which tasted like Mom's! Also, the Savannah chop salad. It was excellent. Friendly staff. My only complaint would be how cold it was inside. Adjust the AC please! read more

So while waiting to get a to go container (I was totally ignored and had to get their attention after all this went down) the manager Amber was extremely rude to a customer over one baked potato. I don't know all the details and the customer was not the most pleasant either but it was ambers duty to make it right. She told the customer they could just leave. She was so rude that another couple that was about to order decided to just leave. All amber had to do was be calm and give the customer the potato and instead she was a poor role model as a manager. I will never be back. I don't reward bad managers. read more

Was in town to visit my daughter for the weekend. Wanted a quick sandwich .Everything was so fresh and well prepared. Great sandwich! read more

If I could go lower, I would. Avoid this location at all costs. Skyline Chili has better potato's! Food was cold. Very cold on sandwiches which we're supposed to be hot and melted according to the menu. Staff pointed out how to leave a tip, BEFORE THEY DID ANYTHING TO SHOW THEY DESERVED A TIP! And was told if I needed a refill, return to the counter! What was the tip for? read more

They NEVER notify or bring out your food when you do curbside here. I've waiting 45min outside checked in twice wen tin to ask where my order was they had it behind the counter so every time I came in it was not on the shelf for pickup orders Ana curbside this has happened 3 times. All they say is there sorry but fix the mistake don't just say sorry every time. I don't think there doing it intentionally but curbside and checking in has no point or purpose at this buisness read more

I walked in thinking this was a typical restaurant bar place because of the name. But it was a salad sandwich place. Very clean and bright. And even though there was only one family there at the time I walked in to look at the menu which was enticing. I got the half salad half sandwich offer and the food was great. Fresh salad and good turkey sandwich ! read more

McAlister's Deli - Half & half - Salad Near Me - Dayton, Ohio

Update: I stopped in here for lunch today. I had the Pepper jack turkey sandwich on ciabatta bread. It came with a side and I choose steamed broccoli. The pepper jack gave the sandwich a slight bit of heat and the grade of turkey was very good. It was all good and I'd recommend it. 10 of us had 'box lunches' that we got from McAlister's today. Several had turkey on wheat, American cheese, lettuce, tomato. Chips sugar cookie. Others had ham on ciabatta, lettuce, tomato, American cheese. Mixed fruit and a chocolate chip cookie. And a couple had roast beef on a hogie bun, American cheese, lettuce and tomato. Potato salad and chocolate chip cookie. It as all OK. Nothing wrong but just ok. read more

I don't know what I expected from this cute deli with a very nice staff and a fairly expensive menu, but it was a lot more than what I experienced. I got the garden, fresh turkey, which advertised smoked turkey... This was the lowest quality lunch meat you can buy. Anyone recall the Buddig brand? This is identical. And...the soup was as thick as opening a can of cream of chicken soup. Literally. Not good. The reason I gave it two stars and not less? Because the carrot cake was delicious. Six dollars a slice good? No. But the best part of my meal. read more

Can't read nor comprehend the difference between the sweet tea vs unsweet tea. Food is not worth the price, nothing I have tried has been decent. read more

Although there food is typically good I CANNOT recommend using them as a catering company. Had visitors from Europe that we called in a catering order for and we were notified 10 minutes before lunch was to be delivered that they had cancelled the order because their doordash partner could not arrange a driver to deliver it. Did not even ask us if we had someone who could come pick the order up. No appreciation or concern for there corporate customers. read more

Took forever for them to pick phone up. The blue corn Tortilla Straps were left off my salad. When I got my salad it was a mess. Salad on the box top, salad sticking out from the box. When I called about the missing corn chips they said since it's a garnish there was nothing they could do although it is part of the salad. First off, I wasn't asking for a refund but maybe part back in credit for everything. And the salad was not very good. Chicken is shaved with no flavor and very little of it. And tons of the chunky no good salad pieces. read more

Good food, but they need to work on their customer service skills. They advertised a special and then refused to honor it.

Came for lunch. Long line with only 2 cashiers. Sat down at booth with trash still sitting on table. Most other seats for 3 or more was taken. Sit down and look up at light fixtures and the shades are covered in dust. . Two flat screen TV's hanging on the wall, but neither are on and both covered in dust. Don't think cleanliness is a top priority for this establishment. Food selection is plentiful, but prices are kind of high. Comparable to Panera Bread prices. Sweet tea is awesome. read more

I stopped in here today, on the way to one of my appointments. A young lady upfront, Cherish, was very polite, customer focused, and she had great suggestions. The meal was fantastic... I'm not sure when I have had a better BLT. I will definitely be back. read more

Mgr very helpful, carried my multiple bags to my car, food was prompt. I would recommend

Nice bathrooms. Good beverages. Smelled terrible inside. My toddler daughter and my wife both complained about the smell. Probably not stopping at this one on our next road trip. read more

Hats off to the entire Miller lane McAlister's Deli crew for handling today's fire scare. The manager made sure his entire dinning room and crew members were out of the building and safely outside. What a GREAT LEADER! Once we were given to OK to return, the entire crew jumped right back in like nothing happened. Our food was fresh, hot and stellar, as expected, regardless of the minor hiccup. The dining room, tables, booths and restrooms were spotless! You can tell that this crew takes pride in their work and it shows. Keep up the great service. You have a customer for life :) read more

Worse Mother's Day experience ever. First you had to order from your phone which was very confusing for my 80 year old mother. Then they were out of several items on the menu. Lastly, after ordering a salad they brought the food out and said they were out of FORKS!!! Had to eat my salad with a spoon!! I'll definitely never be back to this location read more

I ordered the "Tuna Salad" ... sounded just right for a light lunch. Tuna on a bed of lettuce with some "fixin's" and a neat chipotle peach dressing. It took forever to get to the table for reasons known only to the Mcalister's staff ... many who came later were served before. But the reason I'm giving this restaurant one star is because the portion of tuna was miniscule. I'm not certain I can post the photo I took, but think about 1.5 to 2 teaspoons. Absolutely, positively ridiculously tiny. I would have paid more for the meal to get a decent scoop or two of tuna ... even the server called it a "rip off" when I complained. This was my first and last visit to any McAlister's Deli anywhere. You guys keep the crappy little portion of Tuna you sized to keep your margins where you want them. In the meantime, I, and I'm sure many like me, will take my dining dollars elsewhere forever. read more

Ordered food online and was ready for pickup in less than 20 minutes, which in my opinion is super quick. So let's break down the order: Bowl of Chili and the Spud Max; the spud max is an enormous potato with ham, turkey, cheese, olives, scallions and who knows what else and it is out of this world. Not only is the food delicious, but is healthy and clean, felt great after dinner! read more
