    I used to really like McAlisters. They have good taco salads, sandwiches, soups etc. Large portions, good taste and reasonable prices. Last week I ate at a McAlisters for the first time in several years. I ordered the taco salad. The price is close to what it used to be but the serving was smaller and the taste not quite as good. I noticed other people sandwiches and they also looked smaller. I use to think McAlisters was a 4. Now, I am struggling to give it a 3. Honestly to be fair I must give a 2 because I have had better and it used to be at Mc Alisters!!!

    First time at McAlister's the salad, sandwiches and spuds, was absolutely amazing. If your looking for something light and filling I highly recommend it. Food came out fast.

    French dip (half eaten lol)

    We have been here twice and enjoyed the food and the awesome customer service. We will be back again. Thank you

    McAlister's is home to my favorite restaurant potato. I would highly recommend any of the potatoes. Their salads are very large and usually very fresh. Of course, their sweet tea is amazing. I would highly recommend the peach tea as well. This McAlister's has many personable and hardworking employees that always make the experience great. The only reason I don't give it 5 stars is because it is a little expensive for a chain sandwich shop -- especially because a sweet tea is almost a necessity. Otherwise, I love this place!

    Yeah you already know what it is

    Freezing cold dining room. Lackluster food. Has that straight out of a Sysco truck flavor. But on a Sunday in Laurel, it's slim pickings.

To see across the dining room one has to shield one's eyes with one's hands.... Paint the walls gray, and put some shades on those bright lights! Best to ask for the other dining room which has a much better environment for your eyes and senses. Flatware is the CHEAPEST sold to restaurants, terrible, just like the cheap flatware used by The Loft. Server was friendly for sure but not professional. None of the servers could tell you anything about any of the wines... except for the difference in color! Owners, teach your staff about the wine list! Your servers should know what a Malbec is and that it's from the Mendoza region in the Andes of Argentina, for example. We each had a dish that included a flatiron steak. Sadly our steaks were incredibly tough and chewy. I was able to eat ZERO of it... first bite... chew chew chew until it arrived at its destination, in a paper napkin. Same outcome for bites two and three.... Both ended up in my napkin! The server failed to notice that everything on my plate was gone but the steak appeared untouched! She should have noticed that the other foods were disappearing but the steaks sat appearing untouched on our plates. Green beans, shrimp, pasta dishes all a 10 out of 10! We will go back as overall this is a decent place to eat! However, still waiting on the down town Laurel restaurants to class it up! After all, we are a tourist town (HGTV-Home Town fans) and our guests are here daily from all over the country and world. Train the staff, learn the wines, ditch the cheap flatware, think about adding cloth napkins... and paint the dining room and dim those flood lights!

    What a nice find in Laurel Mississippi. We are going to the Crowder concert and we're looking for a…read moreplace just to grab a drink maybe a bite to eat when we happened into 3 20 5th St. A very nice young lady agreed to sit the door. Evidently there was a cover charge to go in and see a band that was playing in the back. I have run bars, music venues for many years part of venturing onto my other occupation. Let me just throw my two cents out there... First off we were too young ladies trying to get a night cat before hitting the bed. It's not like there's a lot going on in Laurel Mississippi at 9:30 at night on a Saturday night. We went in and saw where the band was gonna be playing in a really nice outdoor seating area . The band had not started playing yet. We were just going to go take a quick look. Honestly, I'll be really wanted was a nightcap. Had I been running this facility? I would have put the covered charge desk at the other end of the bar where the exit to go to the outdoor seating area was. I think they're losing a lot of business from people who really don't have time or care to see the band. It makes sense to me. They have a great little bar that's not being utilized unless you're going to the outdoor seating area to watch the band. May want to rethink this O
