Stopped in with my father to grab lunch after our drive. I've always enjoyed McAlister's to grab sandwich, they tend to have a good variety of options. But they are on the pricey side. The staff at the counter were friendly and offered some suggestions while were ordering I got the black angus club sandwich which is made with roast beef. I got potato salad with as my side. Both were very tasty We took advantage of the nice weather and enjoyed lunch on their patio. Overall it was a good visit, I'd recommend and go back.

The staff is always so friendly and patient. I was greeted by staff members when I walked in the door. The cashier helped me with my food selection today, giving me suggestions of a few of her favs and shared what others are ordering. The atmosphere had an energetic vibe, music playing, but not too loud and staff chatter. It's obvious they are team oriented and they genuinely love what they do. Outstanding service!!!

I swore off this McAlister's location years ago for reasons that, unfortunately, were reaffirmed during this visit. I was looking for a light dinner and decided on my usual salad and baked potato. Due to winter weather limiting my options, I reluctantly gave this location another chance. Big mistake!!! First, my salad dressing was missing...and then I saw it...the dryest, most overcooked baked potato ever!! This potato had to be left over from lunch, if not the night before. The weather prevented me from returning it so I settled and scooped out the edible portions. This experience has solidified my decision to avoid this location permanently. Next time, I'll just drive the extra miles for a better, more reliable meal. (I would've given only 1 star had not the sweet tea been so good).

The McAlister's Club
Tony F.

My father and I got this food door dashed , and we are not from the area. We wanted some good deli food, and boy did we get it. We each got the club, and it was exactly what we were craving and got! The food was fresh and tasted delicious. Next time we are back in town we will definitely be getting this again, highly recommend!

1/2 sub 1/2 spud - once again no au jus
Bari S.

Sandwiches, Spuds (large baked potatoes w/ a variety of toppings), kids meals, salad, & soups. This location was amazing when they 1st open but it's been awhile & the work force is not as good as it used to be. We order here when we are looking for a quick bite & can run in/out to pick up. Order online & pick up from To-Go shelf. Average food for little above average prices. A sandwich w/ a side or a Spud w/ toppings are both $10 - $14. (See pics) FYI - if you order To-Go and any of your items are supposed to have sauces like au jus, butter, honey mustard, etc. - definitely check to make sure it's there. 3x in a row - Au jus was forgotten & luckily this last time my wife reminded me to ask before I left.

McCalisters Club
Nicole S.

I love McCalisters Deli, never a bad experience. I always get the McCalister Club. Hubby always gets the Ruben. So delucious!! Potato soup is pretty good too.

Chef salad, no bacon no ham, sub turkey and cucumbers, add strawberries, blueberries and pecans
Felicia F.

I called in my order and had it picked up. When I received it, my first thought was this is a good looking salad. This was a perfectly made salad and it would have been a perfect salad but several pieces of the iceberg lettuce were brown. I didn't like that but outside of that, this is one of the best salads I've had from this location. My fruit and everything else was fresh.

Cuban Club with side of Mac and cheese
Korina J.

I ordered the 2 for so I got loaded nachos and half club sandwich. My husband got the Cuban club and side of Mac and cheese. We went and sat down was there for at least 25 minutes before we heard the manager say hey they are sitting over there so then we got our food. The nachos were cold and had hardly no chili on it. My husband sandwich had way too much mustard on it and the bar b que meat and ham was dry and sandwich was cold. The manager said she was sorry about the amount of time it took to get our food but did not offer to get us fresh food or anything else to make the visit right. So will not go back there for a good while. Waste of $30.

I tried this place for the first time. It was okay. I expected more chicken then greens but I love eating vegetables so the spinach didnt bother me much.They have outdoor tables and seatings if you want to eat outside. There food is fresh and service is quick.

Grilled Chicken King Club

This is supposed to be a chicken king club which costs 15.79 you would think someone would know how to toast bread. This bread looks as if it came straight out the loaf how difficult is it to toast bread. Do better McAlister's deli. Any other time y'all overcook something I can't even get a potato anymore cause y'all incinerate them but you can't be bothered to toast bread.

Amazing ham & cheese sammie with side balsamic salad!
Em H.

When my friend stopped in town for lunch on Memorial day, we were hoping to find a good local deli for him to enjoy. We normally go to First Carolina Deli, but they were closed for the holiday. Therefore, we opted for McAllister's to have a quick lunch. I was worried it would be busy at lunchtime, but we lucked out & arrived during a lull in service. My ham & cheese sandwich was so good! It was toasted & the melted cheese gave the bread a moist texture, which elicited from me a sound of delight! My salad was fresh & delicious. My friend enjoyed his meal and he wasn't disappointed by our choice to visit McAllister's. We will definitely be back!

Tomato & Cucumber Salad
Terri W.

This section of New Garden Rd, is loaded with great places to eat. We found ourselves wanting good deli but our usual place was closed. McAlister's is our new Go To - here's why: they have no problem with substitutions. We both wanted The New Yorker which is corned beef, pastrami, swiss and spicy brown mustard on marbled rye. We changed the bread on both to a baguette and no cheese on mine. The girl at the register was very accommodating and nice. We took it home and chowed. The corned beef and pastrami combo was really good! The potato salad tasted better than it looks and the tomato, cucumber salad was very fresh. This was a great experience!

Bacon, lettuce and tomato and avocado
Janis A.

This was my first time to McAlister's Deli. It was such a cold and rainy day so I was in the mood for soup. McAlister's popped up when I Googled "Soup Near Me" So I went. You have to order at the counter and then servers will deliver to your table sort of like a Panera Bread. However, you cannot see the food items or see your meal being made like at Panera. There is a large menu board with lists of sandwiches, salads and soups to order from. It's always so hard for me to decide when confronted with such choice. I do, however, see potato soup listed and that sounded fabulous and a grey day like today. I interview the server about her favorite sandwiches to help me finalize my decision. A BLT + A it is! Bacon, lettuce and tomato with avocado. It was delicious as was my cup of potato soup. All in all, my meal was really good and the staff was happy and polite. I will definitely go back to try more sandwiches and soups.

Walking up to the building it gives major deli vibes…read more Inside, is deli vibe on steroids. It's whimsical in decor, lots of seating options with booths, a row of barstool seating, lots of individual table seating, and it's clean. The staff are friendly and eager to help. My food was prepared as I waited and they got it out to me quickly. I ordered mine to go due to another obligation but next time I'm dining in. They have lots of choices on the menu with lots of meats, cheeses, homemade and salads, homemade desserts and so many drinks to choose from. I ordered the Rachel on a Kaiser roll, warm German potato salad red skin potato salad, and a snickerdoodle cookie. The sandwich automatically comes with a pickle spear (the good kind mmmm) and a bag of Utz chips. They thoughtfully wrapped the warm potato salad cup in foil to keep it warm and double wrapped that precious pickle spear so none of its juice could escape...and I appreciate the gesture more than you know. It's called going above and beyond. The sandwich was delicious! Pastrami, sauerkraut, melted Swiss cheese with a slightly sweet Russian dressing mmm. The Kaiser roll tasted fresh. The sandwich unfortunately had to ride in my passenger seat for 30 minutes until I got home and the bread took an unfortunate beating before it met my lips. Nonetheless, it was still a very good sandwich. The warm German potato salad is VERY GOOD. The red skin potato salad is good. The chips were fresh. And the pickle was fresh and crisp and juicy. They have good pickles. I will be back to try more sandwiches, sides and desserts and I recommend.

Such a cute little spot! Grab a bite with my dad and we both loved it. I ordered the Super turn sub…read morewith tuket breast, swiss, lettuce, tomatoes and Russian dressing on a kaiser roll. I must say they put a good amount of turkey in it. I saw they used boar's head meats and cheese. Also they have Dr.Brown soda which I love, very rare to see that options. Unfortunately I do not remember what my dad ordered but as you can see in the photo it looks delicious and he loved it. All subs/sandwiches comes with chips(not homemade) and a pickle. They have there own private parking and sitting on the inside and a few outside. Thank you for an amazing quick bite it's my dad!

Who wouldn't like an authentic Italian market with homemade Italian favorites?…read more The moment you walk through the door, your senses are on overload from the sites and smells of meats, cheeses and the aroma of garlic that make you want to taste everything you see. The gentlemen working there are so handsome and helpful. They were eager to assist and the service is top notch. They get you in and out quickly, without sacrificing quality. Dats what I'm talkin about! Their artichokes look so good. I can't stop thinking about them and am kicking myself in the pants for not getting some. Oh well, I guess that means I'll be forced to go back and get some. Ha! What I did get was the Italian Stallion sub and the Meatball Parm sub. First. Let's talk about the bread. FRESH and slightly crunchy on the outside, with the perfect amount of chewy, and pillowy yet dense on the inside. The BEST bread on a sub that I've found in NC. The Marinara on the sub is authentic Italian marinara with just the right amount of cheese, but those MEATBALLS...I've never had a meatball quite like theirs and they are homemade, delicious with the perfect seasonings. Yum! The Italian Stallion. Absolutely the BEST sandwich I think I've ever eaten. They don't skimp on the meat that's for sure and its QUALITY cold cuts all the way. And the best thing about getting food from here? Their prices. They have kept their prices on the lean side while still keeping their sandwiches fat. Love love love! So what ya gonna do about it? Go back for more! That's what! This is a 100% YES and I will be recommending to everyone.

I have been wanting to try The Bodega for a while now simply because of their delicious food photos…read morefrom Yelp! My husband and I were in downtown Greensboro on a Saturday afternoon and decided to hit this place up for lunch. When they called the place The Bodega, they really mean it's a bodega. It's decked out like a small convenience store from the second you walk in. We ordered our food at the cash register to eat at one of their tables outside. The cashier brought our sandwiches out about 10 minutes after ordering. I ordered the Turkey Caesar. It had turkey, shaved parmesan, marinated cherry tomato, house-made Caesar dressing, onion, and romaine lettuce in an 8" sandwich roll. It was a little pricey at $15, but it was worth the splurge. The dressing and parmesan cheese were unbelievable! Since this is in downtown Greensboro, there is no dedicated parking lot but we easily found street parking nearby. The place has a few tables outside for customers to enjoy their food. If you're looking for a good sandwich, I highly recommend checking The Bodega out.

This place is so cool and has some of the best sandwiches in town. This time I popped in for a…read moreGroove Lab event they hosted. Unfortunately the kitchen had already closed (Sunday) but trust me when I say the sandwiches are mouthwatering. And if you like THC drinks, this is the spot! So many options to choose from.

I'm happy to say that after my first time trying it last year that I continue to go and support it. The service is always great and my food comes out spectacular. I have zero complaints. Just with any place, depending on when you go, it can easily be a little wait. I came in this morning on my day off and ordered the cruel summer on everything sourdough. It has scallion cream cheese, egg, bacon, and hot honey. I also tried the hash brown. I was pleasantly surprised because it was seasoned. Most times hash browns are very plain but this one was not. I opted to sit in and enjoy my breakfast. They had seating with standard tables and chairs. Anytime I've come in, it's always nice and clean. Needless to say, check it out. There are so many varieties of not only bagels but they also have wraps and croissants. So you can customize to your liking. Although, I'm a southern Belle, the New Yorkers have stamped this as a supreme bagel spot. I hope you all enjoy it as much as I have.
