    Veggie Spud
    Jeanette C.

    Whenever I'm craving a baked potato, McAlister's Deli is my go-to restaurant. Their spuds are huge! I usually order the "Choose 2" with half a spud and a side. Today, I went full on spud which will be great for leftovers! The only bad part about eating at McAlister's, they're busy during lunch which means a longer wait for your food.

    The prices has gone up. On their menu it's not reflected. The chef mistaken our meal as dine in. So I waited longer. The food was good.

    Tennessee doesn't do corn beef every where. This place is great for a great corn beef sandwich

    Very good food but the only issue that we had was it took a long time for the cashier to take our order. Over all it was great!

    This establishment is absolutely ridiculous. The customer service is terrible. I ordered my food…read moreonline. I clearly stated that I wanted certain add ons to my sandwich for example: green bell peppers, yellow mustard, and banana peppers. And I also clearly stated that I DID NOT wanted mayonnaise and tomato. Guess what I got. Mayonnaise and Tomato. ALSO guess what add ons I got. NONE. Not my green bell peppers, banana peppers or yellow mustard. Really?? How hard is it to make a sandwich. When I called down to the place to explain what the problem was. Keep in mind. I kept my temper and I did not engage in any rude behavior. I kindly explained the situation and the person who was on the other end began to tell me that it wasn't his fault and that he made all the sandwiches correct. Well that's funny. Cause you clearly didn't. Seriously this place needs to step up their game. This place always has me writing complaints. And yes. This isn't the first time... Mind you I spent 40 dollars for all my food together. Just to get the polar opposite of what I asked for, when I could have just made the damn sandwich myself at home but I needed the connivence.. see how that turned out. Safe to say, I'm tired of given this place 2nd chances. I will never be returning. -Fuck off Firehouse

Service was fast and friendly, food was delicious and I LOVE the blazing dragon drink! Patio area where we chose to sit was very nice, shaded and they have ceiling fans! The inside is nicely decorated as well, we just prefer outside. Give it a try if you haven't already or have been on the fence!

There are tables, booths, bar/counter seats, plus outdoor seating, and windows galore that flood the room with natural light. It's bright, cheerful, and instantly welcoming. Every visit I've made, the place has been spotless--dining room, restrooms, everything. Plus the WiFi is solid, making this a great weekday spot to work from when I want to linger; they've always seemed fine with me setting up at the bar counter in the corner and staying until closing. Service has always been great. Contrary to some negative reviews I've seen, I've not had a bad experience here. Every server has been courteous, attentive, and hustling--nothing sloppy, no waiting around. As for the food--nothing but hits so far. Every dish I've ordered has been delicious, the temperature spot‑on, and the presentation pleasing. Some of my favorite go‑tos: Morning Meditation Fresh Juice -- crisp and refreshing Market Hash -- two cage‑free eggs any style, atop fresh seasoned potatoes, with house‑roasted Crimini mushrooms, zucchini, shallots, red peppers, baby spinach, melted Mozzarella, and herbed Goat cheese; served with whole grain artisan toast Bacado Omelet -- bacon, avocado, Monterey Jack, topped with sour cream, served with house‑made Pico de Gallo, lemon‑dressed organic mixed greens, and artisan toast They even rotate seasonal menu items, so there's always something new to try. Portions are generous--you're getting your money's worth and likely won't be hungry again until dinner. Bottom line: I'm a big fan. FW has raised the bar for breakfast in Oak Ridge, and I'm so glad they're here. Highly recommended.

    I tried Aubrey's in Oak Ridge back in '22, and I have to admit I was not impressed. The food was…read moreacceptable and the service was good, but I did not care for the beverage options. As a diabetic, I avoid sugary soda, etc so I asked what my options were and was told it was Diet Coke. I find Diet Coca Cola to be vile, even among diet sodas, so that was a no go. Many local restaurants have begun offering Coke Zero, a much more palatable alternative, but not them. I settled for iced tea. The tea was not great, as is often the case, so I told them I'd likely come more frequently if they improved their beverages. All that being said, I recently tried again and found that they do now carry Coke Zero. And the meal was excellent (maybe because I wasn't disappointed in the soda, maybe it just improved). Regardless, of why, I can now say it was an excellent experience, either way the dinner rolls being a standout in my memory. I shall not wait three and a half years to return.

    Aubrey's is almost always packed, which makes it seem like a standout spot in our small town. After…read morevisiting a few times, though, I've found it to be... pretty average. They do offer outdoor seating, which is nice, although I'm not sure yet if it's dog-friendly--something I'll have to check out next time. We usually sit at the bar, and one thing I've learned is that you need to be very specific with your drink order if you have preferences. For example, if you order a dirty martini without clarification, be prepared for a glass that tastes almost entirely like olive brine. Asking for "light" on the olive juice is a must. Even a standard vodka martini doesn't automatically come with a lemon twist, which feels like a small but noticeable miss. Service has consistently been solid--friendly and attentive, about what you'd expect. The food, however, has been hit or miss. I tried the FGTs twice, hoping the first experience was just an off night, but they still weren't memorable enough to order again. The steak tips appetizer has been the one standout for us--really flavorful--but if you're planning on ordering a steak entrée, doubling up on steak feels a bit redundant. The salads that come with the meals are reliably good, and the steaks themselves are decent, especially with the loaded baked potato on the side. That said, I ordered a fish dish on one visit that was forgettable enough that I can't even recall exactly what it was--just that I wouldn't order it again. Overall, Aubrey's is perfectly fine, but it hasn't wowed me. At this price point, I think there are better options around town. We might stop back in from time to time if we're in the mood for something different.
