Food was ok but I was not that impressed. Customer service is friendly and fast on a busy weekend brunch time. The ambiance of the place was good and the place gets busy during brunch times

Our delicious food, completely ON POINT!

Wow, once again !!! Jianna did it again!, we walked in and there she was with her great smile and friendly greeting! Her attitude brightened our day! Jianna was so attentive to our order and she had no problem paying attention to detail with one of my favorite orders here , Jalapeño's turkey Crunch and perfect fresh garden salad!! So so delicious! And again, the cleanliness and welcoming dining area makes this place a MUST stay and eat place and not to discount the cool music. Outstanding job Jianna and McAllister's! I'm a forever customer and fan.

Came here for dinner on a Friday night and there were a not a lot of patrons in the restaurant. I ordered a spud and was very disappointed. I haven't been here in years, and this was my first time since moving back to the valley. My baked potato was not cooked all the way, and there was an ick spot on both ends, so I had to cut a good portion of the potato off before I could actually eat it. I have a dairy allergy so I was not able to use sour cream or cheese, I asked for extra butter, and the butter was very oily and disgusting. My family was also with me and got their orders wrong. My niece's kids mac & cheese was at room temperature, borderline cold, and they also brought my sister the wrong nachos. When she told the guy that it was wrong, he said, can I just bring you a dessert? The reason why she ordered a particular plate was because of my allergies, and he didn't even do anything about it. We were very disappointed with this visit.

Potato salad Club sandwich Chocolate chip cookie Lemonade Quick service; has indoor and outdoor seating plus a drive-thru; love how it opens up over the Jamba Juice next door Will be back to try other menu items-intrigued by the spuds!

Horseradish Roast Beef and Cheddar Sandwich

I've only been to MacAllister three or four times mostly because it's kind of far from me. But where I live I'm pretty sure delis are banned. I cannot understand why There are no delis in the West Phoenix valley. I know I know everyone will tell you, Goodcents firehouse mr pickles (gross) Jersey Mike's, blah blah blah... those are not delis. those are sub shops. for those that don't know delis are like a mini market that have amazing sandwiches on any kind of bread you want. not just a hoagie roll. And many many meat options that are fresh sliced, from a deli case, and dozens of toppings to choose from. Anyway, McAllister's is the closest thing to a real deli that I have found in West Valley so far. That said of the other two or three options that are so-called delis McAllister's is the best for two reasons, one price and two variety. My sandwich soda and side cost $15. not bad. The so-called deli across the street would have cost me over 30. In fact the last time I was there it was 35 for a sandwich side and a drink but that's another story. This time around I got the beef and cheddar with horseradish sauce. Really good. I was not even hungry for that when I came in there, but I saw it on the menu and had to have it. I will say the cucumber salad was a little disappointing. they should just call that tomato salad. And their sweet tea was good as well. Service is really good and the place is clean. If it were closer to me I'd probably go there once a week at least.

New Yorker sandwich and Tomato & Cucumber Salad.

Stopped in to try the New Yorker and it did not disappoint. Huge portions and excellent flavor. Had the Tomato and cucumber salad as my side and it was great as well. Staff was friendly and helpful, checked to see if I wanted a refill on my drink and if there was anything else needed. Will definitely return

We were looking for someplace new to have our anniversary dinner, and found this one. We hadn't…read morebeen here before, so decided to go for a healthy Italian meal. It's a small, but comfortable restaurant. We arrived just before 5pm on a Monday, it wasn't busy at all. However, as the evening wore on, the diners kept coming in...a few large groups, too. We started with the Whipped Herb Ricotta with Focaccia. So glad we did!! It was delightful. The ricotta cheese was so light and flavorful, the focaccia was cut into points and matched perfectly with the tasty cheese. For our mains, hubby went with the Salmon with Quinoa...he tried to eat it slowly, but somehow ended up inhaling it...LOL! I chose the Chicken Piccata over Rigatoni with a side of a Vegetable Medley. The sauce was very good, the chicken was grilled and baked to perfection and the veggies were perfect (a mix of zucchini, sweet potato and kale). My only slight complaint was the rigatoni were too al dente for me. But, that's just a personal preference. Our server was very friendly and the evening was very enjoyable. We'll definitely come back and try their pizza. They looked really good!!!

I have to start by giving a huge shout-out to our waitress, Tatum! She was beyond…read moreamazing--friendly, attentive, and truly made our first visit memorable. Her excellent service made our dining experience even better. Picazzo's is absolutely incredible. I love that they offer both vegan and non-vegan options, making it easy for everyone to find something they'll enjoy. My boyfriend and I ordered several dishes so we could sample a variety of items, and every single bite was delicious. We tried the vegan meatballs with marinara, the vegan meatball mushroom pesto pasta, the Naples Margherita pizza, the chicken piccata, and finished with the oatmeal apple pie served with gelato. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. The atmosphere was welcoming, relaxing, and perfect for a nice dinner. We were impressed from the moment we walked in until the moment we left. This was our first time at Picazzo's, and if every visit is like this one, we'll definitely be regulars. Since Tatum works Saturdays, we'll be coming back on a Saturday night and requesting her section. Thank you, Picazzo's, for such an amazing dining experience. We can't wait to come back!

Wow. Who would have thought that buying raw fish in the middle of Peoria would be the closest to…read moreauthentic Hawaiian Poké one could find in Arizona? I get the large bowl, with the creamy wasabi ahi, rice, and imitation crab topped with edamame, kale, masago (roe), crunchy garlic, and sweet onion. I add my own extra cucumber, kale, and avocado. And this is by far the closest tasting to what you can get out in Hawaii. Some of the reviews were complaining about portions but I've been twice so far and the portion is very large. In fact, there's more protein in the bowl than there is rice. Definitely one of my new favorite spots

I've been coming here for a while and the food has always been delicious. The employees are usually…read morevery nice and generous with portions, but recently I've had some concerns with one male employee with long hair. The last few times I've been in, I've seen him touch his hair and then continue handling food, pick up food that fell while serving and put it into my bowl, and wear earbuds hanging from his shirt that get very close to the open food. Most recently, I asked for Hawaiian tuna and there was barely any left, so he gave me a very small portion instead of opening a fresh container like other employees have done before. I really like this place, but after seeing these things happen multiple times, the food doesn't feel as appetizing anymore. I really hope management addresses the food handling and cleanliness.
