This is how it wax served. 14 dollars for a sandwich and you can't even get a full cup of soup.

I'd give McAlister's 5 stars except when you order like soup or a side of potato salad, they fill the cup up halfway and the cups are already small. The food is not cheap, so you'd think they'd at least give you a full cup. I know food prices are soaring, but 14 dollars for a sandwich should warrant a full cup of a side! And I don't want to be labeled as a "Karen" so we don't even say anything in the restaurant. We don't want free food. We just want full cups. ‍

Sandwiches! Sandwiches! Sandwiches! We all have that type of food we like, and even with many diverse dining options for me nothing beats a great sandwich. Especially a restarant that specializes in diverse sandwich offerings with great side pairings. I usually go to Martins for paninis, in addition to being a fan of Subway and Jimmy Johns too. Yet though I've checked out different sandwich shops in and outside the area and many of them have great offerings, many of them have no diversification to their sandwich themes. For instance, Subway and Jimmy Johns specializes in subs, but do not offer paninis and other types of sandwiches. Then the opposite issue exists for other restaurants that may offer paninis but no subs, in addition to being too oily and heavily toasted. Though those are good places to grab a sandwich and eat a no fuss kind of meal, the breadth of their sandwich options can be narrow, only possessing a nice depth of options per sandwich. Then there are other establishments that serve a range of sandwiches but are too pricey for the offering and/or aren't as convenient for a quicker grab and go meal. Well McAlister's has solved this dilemma, making this one of my go-to's. Its location is great for shoppers that want to take a break and sit and dine, as well as those who are on the go and want to carry on with their day. When I first started coming here, with many restaurants I noticed the seating arrangements, which are maintained at a socially comfortable distance (even before Covid), with booth options with a nice casual feel. Now I like sandwiches of all sorts but a nice grilled panini with crispy toasted bread always does it for me. When I looked at their menu options, they definitely satisfied that want. Offering different types of clubs (made panini style), as well and sub sandwiches. Yet there's one thing that is a bummer for me, and that is when you go to sandwich shops with limited side options offering "just" fries/chips (especially if they're basic). Luckily McAlister's has a great selection of sides serving mac n' cheese, potato salad, steamed vegetables, and their vegetable salad etc, etc. Nice!! So, I ordered their black angus club with soup and mac cheese, being delicious as always. I usually order carryout when I visit, or Door Dash. But I was pleasantly surprised when I dinned in for the first time, when I received table service. Then when my meal arrived even more so with the presentation, in addition to already knowing I would be getting a good meal. As always, I enjoyed my club, because I like the texture and ratio of meat to toppings. I like that their clubs are toasted similar to a panini however are a bit lighter and healthier because of the lack of oil or butter. My club was just that having light crispy bread, while being flavorful and meaty. I always enjoy their rich soups and mac n' cheese, and McAlister's is very generous on the soup amount per price. I can always count on a good meal here. This is my definite go-to for sandwiches when I'm out and about on this side of town. I always enjoy everything that I ordered here, and I am glad the area has McAlister's.

Wow! I have been here once before and had a delicious salad, but just don't tend to make it to that…read moreside of town often. Today, my coworker and I stopped in and I got a loaded potato and cookie. Again, salads are great, was just in the mood for a potato and did not know what to expect. I got the BBQ potato at the owner's suggestion. I asked about their cookies because I didn't want to get one if they were not made there. Well, they are made there and they are huge and delicious. The potato was also incredible, perfectly cooked. We were treated like VIPs. The wait was not too long, and the restaurant was clean and well maintained. The price is a "little" higher than just going to a regular chain, but for the quality, service and to support a small business it is WORTH it. You need to check it out if you have not yet.

Came in today for lunch after several friends had raved about this place, and they definitely…read moredidn't disappoint! We tried two different flatbreads, a salad, and two loaded potato bowls. The flatbreads were really good, light, flavorful, and not overly heavy. The salad was delicious as well. The potato bowls had great toppings and plenty of flavor, although I think the potatoes themselves could have used a little salt or butter. One of the bowls was also a little cold in the center, but otherwise everything was really good. The inside is clean and welcoming, with a couple of picnic tables for seating and some cute shelves with little items for sale. Most importantly, the owner was incredibly friendly and welcoming.

It was lunchtime in July 2026 and my boyfriend was surprised to learn that I had never been inside…read moreof a Portillo's before (I once got a shake at their drive-thru about a year ago though). So our lunch location was quickly chosen and we went in. Immediately, I was surrounded by vintage Americana memorabilia, reminiscent of a Route 66 diner, in a VERY large space. The shock of the decor was intense yet very exciting! So if you are unaware, this location is one of 107 Portillo's around the US and is a fast-casual hot dog restaurant chain based founded in 1963 out of Chicago. This location opened in 2018 and is one of 6 locations in Indiana. The food is like Five Guys if it specialized in hot dogs instead of burgers and if it went for a maximalist decor concept instead. For lunch, my bf and I ordered: 2 Chicago dogs $3.99 each, 1 Char'diniera dog $4.99 (a pepper and cheese stuffed hot dog), 1 side salad $5.89, and 1 order of onion rings $3.89. The prices are not too bad in my opinion! It took about 5ish minutes for our order to be ready. I thought the meat and bun were of quality and the salad was generous with cheese. My bf loved the limited-time-only Char'diniera hot dog and thought it was one of the best fast food hot dogs he had ever had! High praise indeed haha! Personally, I've had better Chicago style dogs but enjoyed Portillo's version very much. Neither of us had the calorie budget for one of their cake milkshakes - where they put AN ENTIRE SLICE OF CAKE INTO A MILKSHAKE. And yes, it is an incredibly gluttonous 1500 calories. RIP to whomever gets one of these more than once! Overall, I had a good time and a pleasant experience and I will definitely have Portillo's again.

Ok this is tough. I wanted to like this place the atmosphere is clean, and fun in an old charming…read moreway. The oldies music was enjoyable. The staff were not friendly or able to well describe the food we almost ordered a BOX of fries for $20. Vs the Large fries that was plenty for us. We both found ourselves catching glaring looks from the staff that was awkward . It feels like we're just in the way, 'can you move so I can clean that table.' The beef and sausage bowls were ok, a bit of a soup and the beef was gritty. The sausage was fantastic! The fries were too salty for my bride, but I liked them and the cheese sauce was good. The Chocolate shake was tasty ! Overall not sure I'm heading back, but give it a try maybe your experience will be better.

This review is a few months late but I finally found my pictures from my visit to this nice…read moreGranger, Indiana restaurant in 2025 and figured I'd still put my review out there. Better late than never! So this visit was me, my bf, and his parents in honor of my boyfriend's birthday in 2025. The exterior is really nice and new, as is the interior! More on that in a bit... We had a reservation that we made weeks in advance but still had a wait. Rocky River Tap and Table were definitely understaffed and it took forever to get waited on and then we waited nearly 30 minutes to put in our food order. Our waitress was Amy and she tried but she definitely had too many tables. Once we got our drink and food orders, I sipped on a cider from Round Barn in Michigan (refreshing!) and I ordered a $21 bison burger with sweet potato fries (tasty!). I always get sweet potato fries whenever they are an option and this was a very generous portion. We had cheese biscuits to share and all 4 of us were addicted to them. The biscuits were so unique! My bf got a free birthday dessert of a carmel brownie dessert that was diverse in flavors and a crispy salted crispy-ness on the bottom 9/10. He, of course, shared his dessert because he's a very lovely and well-trained guy! Haha! So we enjoyed the food and the drinks but were not inpressed with the service. How about the decor and ambiance? Well, Rocky River recently underwent a renovation and it looks spectacular! The interior was white with moss on the walls and poinsettas everywhere as it was the holiday season of 2025. It is perfect for classy Instagram-worthy photos. I didn't pay for our dinner but I found that the prices were decent for the most part. I'd come back on a slower day. Where else can I get a bison burger with sweet potato fries for only $21 in Michiana?
