    SMDH!!!
    Alex Jon T.

    First time going to McAlisters was in Mansfield and they got my order completely wrong. I decided to get a BLT from this location. One for myself and one for my daughter. Well let's say my daughter enjoyed a well toasted sandwich while I on the other hand get this soggy piece of crap. McAlister across TX are now officially trash in my opinion and will no longer receive my patronage.

    Sweet chipotle chicken
    Amy D.

    McAlister's is not usually a place where I think about going for food, but anytime someone else suggests it, I enjoy the food I order. From spuds to sandwiches to soups to salads, you will enjoy your meal. I'm not sure why but each time I eat here I am surprised how much I like the food. On my most recent visit, I ordered a cup of the crab and corn chowder. It was delicious! It was late, so the cup was the perfect portion, but my heart definitely wanted the bowl portion. I would come back really soon just for this chowder. And it wasn't as high in calories compared to other chowders. My partner ordered the sweet chipotle chicken sandwich with fruit. The sauce was addictive and really made the sandwich. I noticed that the condiment container near the sodas didn't have any crackers like they used to. Not sure if they changed the location or just didn't have time to restock. I do miss the buttery crackers instead of plain saltines. I've enjoyed the sweet tea here but after I learned the sugar content, I try to stay away. That being said, if you're a sweet tea lover, this is the place to go. Overall, Mcalister's is a solid deli place near TCU. There is always plenty of table space for large groups or studying.

    This was fresh macaroni and cheese.

    I had a bad review before but I'm changing my score because McAlister's deli has great customer service. The food I got was delicious and fresh. It was delivered through doordash and it was here right on time. McAlister's is always a great place to visit the ambiance is great.

    McAllisters club with potato salad side

    Stopped in for lunch today at this near TCU branch. Parking a bit of a pain. You will be lucky to get spot on street (University) in front of Deli. Make sure to pay for parking there and leave receipt on dash. Tickets are swiftly meted out for cars without parking receipt. Interior is decorated in TCU themes as you would expect. Students frequent this establishment, and other than my daughter and I, this was the crowd at 2 on Friday. Maybe about 1/4 full, so service was speedy You stand in line to place your order. Menu boards along back wall to select what you want, but for us older folks, print is extremely small. I opted for McAlister Club sandwich, while my daughter got the Cobb Club sandwich. Sandwich and salad fare is the norm here. You get a side with the sandwich, so we opted for the mustard based classic potato salad. They advertise their "sweet tea" so we went with that. You are given your beverage or beverage glasses (if you are going soda route), and a number you display at table. Food run out when ready. Would estimate ours was ready in about 5 minutes, GREAT but expected as place was not crowded. My club was good, just good. Nothing unusual and tasted a bit like it was pre-prepared and pulled from refrig, not made fresh. Potato salad was also good. Sweet Tea, comes in large glass they will re-fill for you was REALLY GOOD, not too sweet as some places are. Really refreshing. Our 2 sandwiches and teas ran $20, so not bad, but not a cheap eats. I'd go back if I was in area, but given parking hassle, not a great alternative unless you are walking. Service was friendly.

    My mom was in town for the weekend. She said she was in the mood for sandwiches. Reasonably, I…read morebrought her to this 420 themed restaurant. If anything, that actually added to the experience for her. She liked the vibe and inside decor, not because she partakes in cannabis use, but she's not familiar with the 420 culture in the first place so it all kind of stood out. I agree with that as well. The design plays into the theme well! This of course extends to the menu as well. All sandwiches are named after different strains of weed. I got the Kali Mist - a spicy turkey club - on white and my mom got the KGB - a roast beef and horseradish sandich - on garlic herb. As opposed to small, medium, large, the sizes are nug, pinner, and blunt. We both got nug sizes since we weren't too hungry at the time but still wanted to try. Long story short, the sandwiches were absolutely delicious. They're all toasted so the bread provides a great, warm base. The avocado on the Kali Mist stood out for me, providing a nice rich flavor and texture amongst everything else. I tried a bit of the KGB as well and the horseradish gives a nice contrast to the flavorful roast beef. Overall, I would definitely come back again to try out more of the sandwiches.

    My first try, and we went on 4/20 to catch a munchies discount!…read more We were happy with the cost, that's for sure. This particular spot is a deli sandwich place; they do have some standout choices, but I was craving tuna, so I ordered their Pacific Blue (Tuna Melt). Loved that they toasted the buns; it was good but didn't wow me. They skimped on the cheese and didn't add the jalapeños I requested. Service was incredibly slow, but there was a huge rush-hour crowd, so I'll overlook it. All in all, the theme is cool. Loved that they had vendors and music available the day we went; it gave us an opportunity to have something to do while we waited. I did spot board games, but naturally didn't think we'd need them. The goo ball was overly buttery and definitely had peanut butter. It was good for the first couple of bites but I quickly tossed it afterward once it became too much. If a deli is your thing, give it a try. I'm sure on any other given day they'd be better at delivering a sandwich with everything.

My husband found The Great Outdoors Sub Shop, and it absolutely hit the spot. I ordered the turkey and cheese with the works (minus tomatoes), and my husband went with the same sandwich but built his own without the preset toppings. The bread is baked fresh in-house, and all of the fixings tasted fresh and high quality. I grabbed a bag of chips and a drink, and it made for a solid, satisfying meal. If I'm being picky, I wouldn't have minded a little more meat--but overall, the flavor was on point. The place was clean, with steady foot traffic from nearby businesses, which is always a good sign. The servers were ready to take on all the orders that came in. Bonus points: they also offer desserts and ice cream! Definitely a great option if you're craving a classic deli experience

One sandwich was the club and the other sandwich was the turkey pastrami. By my mistake, I thought that my was going to be turkey and pastrami.

Second experience did not live up to my first experience. I came back with my husband. I tried the burger and he had the blt. The beef sandwich is better. I got the single patty. If you get the burger, get the double. The patty was thin. I think the Hawaiian roll made it sweet. If you like sweet burgers, you may enjoy it more than I did. I also bought the "world famous" Swiss pastry shop Black Forest cake. Evidently I've never had their Black Forest cake because it was horrible. Black forest cake is supposed to be chocolate with cherries. The cake was white with cool whip. But here's the big issue - it was dried out and hard. The guy behind the counter told me it was frozen. This cake was not hard from being frozen. I asked several questions about the type and quality. I'm surprised he didn't offer a refund. Not worth $6.50. Not sure I'll go back again.

This place is letting their burrito do the tacoing for them. *talking I took some action shots for you. Tía on the griddle slanging taco fix-ins, should really say it all. By the way, do you know the difference between a burrito and a taco? If you said size... I'm sorry to tell you, but that's incorrect. It's not your fault... I think this is called, "false consensus effect" -- maybe one of you psychology majors can help me on this. The difference between a taco and burrito is, that burrito's are folded on the end before they're rolled.
