    I received this sandwich from a friend and they ordered it to go. I have never had McAlistair's before in my life. I expected this to not be good and kind of like a typical sandwich. But why was I surprised by how good the sandwich components came together. It had this like honey mustard sauce that made the sandwich not try to eat. It had a good amount of meat and veggies, and was overall really well balanced.

    OK, after 11 yrs we got back to this new location. Lots and lots of competition for casual lunches in Collin county. Pretty sure this McAlister's was located several blocks north of current location. I think they occupy to old Container Store location. Anyway great food and service. We both got the pick two and it was plenty of food. Lots of other customers there for lunch and take out. Don't be concerned about ratings on Yelp. Google reviews much better and higher star rating. Very nice interior layout. Just like before but with new stuff. See photos. Hot sunny days try to park on north side for shade without blocking take out parking spots.

    This is my second attempt to get my wrap... I have ordered the same thing a few times and have gotten something different each time. They greet you when you walk in, but then are kind of half checked-out.

    Been here twice and I've really enjoyed both times! They have decent deals on the app which is why I went. Was super yummy and lots of flavor. I've not typically a baked potato girl but WOW theirs is really yummy and flavorful. Service is fantastic, there's one guy at this location that doesn't even look like he works there but he's so chill and nice. Inside it's clean and I like the no contact order idea, helps when the line is long.

    No fries! Ah, what a nice change for a fast food eatery. You can actually have your sandwich with steamed vegetables or salad. Don't get me wrong, you can still find fattening options here (potato chips anyone?), but you might be more likely to choose something healthy and delicious. We don't normally visit this location in Plano, but we were pleasantly surprised at how quiet it was. I think we must have just missed the lunch crowd because a few of the tables still hadn't been cleared of debris. Thankfully there were still lots of clean tables to choose from, including one by the window. It's mostly just parking lot and freeway to look at, but that is pretty much par for the course in the DFW metroplex. I ordered a Jalapeño Turkey Crunch with a side tomato and cucumber salad. The sandwich was fantastic! I was tempted to return to the deli today and get the same thing again. It had just the right balance of each ingredient. The jalapeños provided a bit of heat. The avocado chunks were cool and creamy. At first I thought the crunch was the super thin layer of bacon on the sandwich, but it turned out to be perfectly placed potato chips that didn't overwhelm the sandwich. Even the bread was scrumptious. It was super soft and easy to tear off with every bite. The jalapeño cooked into the bread complemented the sandwich. Sadly my tomato and cucumber salad was not as good. There were too few tomato chunks, and the pieces that were there, were quite large. The oil/vinegar/balsamic sauce that they were swimming in did not seem fresh. I immediately regretted not getting the steamed broccoli like my hubby or even a soup instead. My husband's french dip looked amazing. He had no complaints. Matter of fact there was no conversation because he was busy enjoying his meal too. The young man at the register was helpful during our meal selection and afterwards when we asked for drink refills of tea before departing. While we might not return to this particular location, I will definitely return to McAlisters to order this sandwich.

    A close up.

    Staff wasn't professional, and didn't make my food right. The employee I had was rude and didn't seem cordial.

    Can you please update your DoorDash delivery menu to include all of the items on your store menu including what's new?

    We were under the impression these were on the DoorDash menu! However, the last day for these two items was Monday, December 31st. We will look into this further, but imagine they were removed, preventing you from ordering them. Thanks for making us…

But, they have outside seating, so we took advantage of that. We ordered an assortment of baked goods: homemade pop tarts, a savory bacon and cheese scone, olive oil and lemon cake with vanilla icing, and a cheese danish. Service was great. There was a short line and we were waited on by a friendly and attentive staff member. The inside of the store is packed with food, drinks, and baked goods. There are also frozen ice cream sandwiches which are served inside of macarons. There is a wall of drinks and large counters of baked goods. We loved our cakes, scones, pop tarts, and danish. Each was delicious in its own right and flaky golden brown. The flavors popped and we had a hard time leaving some to bring home. This is a definite must try cafe. I can't wait to go back. Thank you, Preston's Cafe.

Priscilla was an attentive and kind server who really went above and beyond for us! As we walked up, we really liked the cute patio vibe with cute flowers and a pergola with a lot of fans, even in the scorching Texas summer. We opted to sit inside and it's a cozy setting with a nice looking bar. We came in close to opening and it wasn't too busy but it definitely picked up as we were wrapping just to show how popular this place is on a Saturday. Priscilla greeted us and walked us through the menu and we started with some great coffee. I had the breakfast pot pie and we also had the French toast and eggs benedict. Everything was pretty flavorful and the breakfast pot pie was so heartwarming and tasty. I would have preferred a little more seasoning or spices for some extra flavor, but that's my preference. My parents were pretty satisfied with their dishes. Maybe just a little more refinement to make it 5 star worthy. Overall, we were impressed with our experience and will be back again to try their dinner options that looked really good!
