    New Yorker
    Robbie G.

    I've ate at many of these locations and even though I did find the service the first month opening to be outstanding the food was a little off from others.. the soups were bland and a little day old not sure what happened but they were not prepared up to par from what I remember The sandwiches my New Yorker was good but did not think the turkey club cranberry held up as good. The bread tasted old and it just didn't hold up as well as many times at other locations I know this place is new and will always return because I love the menu here I know people complain about the price but compared to Panera this is much better in my opinion

    I ordered a ham and cheese melt with a Mac and cheese side. Apparently, the girl placing the order didn't know how to order something like that. Unfortunately, it was take out and when I finally got home here is what I had: I don't see ham or hardly any cheese??? Really?

    This was the big spud. Super delicious

    Super yummy!! They treat you like a neighbor and is a great way to have some family time.

    I don't know why I keep coming back. Time and time again. Terrible service, food order is usually wrong or cold, they always put the newest employee up front to deal with the disappointed customers. I've eaten at McAlister's in other locations and never an issue. This location has been like this since before Covid. It just never got better. It is also very over priced for what you get. The food in the picture was $26. No thanks.

    This honestly just looks disgusting and I don't know why they thought it would be a good idea to give two half sides instead of replacing it

    Half of my order was missing. The restaurant also was out of Mac n cheese which was fine because I decided to swap the two sides of Mac n cheese that I had ordered for the cucumber tomato salad. Instead of getting our salads the employees thought it would be okay to give us a cup with maybe six noodles of Mac n cheese in it and then a cup of the cucumber tomato salad that was not even a third of the way full. I usually don't leave bad reviews but this is the second time that something has gone wrong at this location. Definitely do not recommend and I will not be ordering or eating here again.

    Food and service excellent. The closest thing to a real NYC deli here in Rome. Generous salads.

    Service is terrible, poorly managed. A fan of McAlister's for years, so disappointing that this location can't get it right!

    Fun, eclectic eatery located in the heart of downtown Rome…read more The space is wide open and has a small, hometown feel to it with fun art and memorabilia hanging from the ceiling and walls. The menu is full of classic, comfort style dishes that will make you feel at home. Or server was a true southern belle with all the charm and kindness you would expect. I had a burger and it was delicious. This thing was MASSIVE and cooked to a perfect medium well as I had requested. The fries were also pretty good. They could have used a bit more seasoning but there was salt on the table!

    Down in Rome this past weekend and decided to get into the Harvest Moon, as I had never been…read more Asking my girlfriend how it was, she just answered "okay". I now agree with her. This is a Southern Restaurant in a southern town. So I opted for a Shepherd's Pie from the St Paddy's Day menu. Yeah, go figure. It was rather bland. When I make this dish, I use ample cream in the potatoes (Irish style) and make a thicker, more moist pie, with a good deal of tomato in it. This was a bland substitute. Far better the next day when I added in enough butter to make the potatoes shine. I will give props for using lamb on this. She had the salmon patties. Fairly simple, also rather bland. Mashed potatoes as well. Breading on the okra was fine. Staff? Very friendly waiter. Answered all the questions and even described the drinks. As this has a good craft beer selection, I opted for one I had not had before and she got a smokey old fashioned. The old fasthioned did not have the cherries or orange peel you would normally see, but was rather strong and did use a rye whiskey. I would not go there for the drink, but reasonably priced. The ambiance is great. Typical of Rome, GA establishments, you can feel the history. They also have a rooftop bar and a separate bar area, for those seeking out a drink or two. Summary: The experience was good, but the food was bland. If you like to heavily salt your food, this might not be as big of a deal. On the whole, 3 stars, for average. Compared to other places in Rome, some of which are really bad, you would prefer this to many places. Nothing really bad to say, but nothing really good. Just average.

    We make fancy grilled cheese sandwiches when we camp, but not like this. These sandwiches are so…read morewell put together and every tasting note and ingredient is well thought out with a high degree of quality. We had three sandwiches: Dill with it, the arsonist and the Al Capesto. Our favorite was the arsonist followed closely by the pesto one. The candied bacon and the seasoning on top puts it over the top. We loved how they cut these onto triangles of four, making them real easy to share. I ordered online and it only took 15 minutes. It was ready as soon as I ordered and started my half mile walk. I've heard of ghost kitchens before, and have got delivery from them, but never been inside of one. I absolutely love the idea. They take an underutilized kitchen such as one at a church and put it to good use during off hours. It's such a wonderful idea to not be wasteful with space and I'm sure it keeps the food prices low. Don't expect like a fancy fast casual place that spends way too much money on their space, but they do a perfect job with what they got. You are coming up to a church, but it's so well marked with signs and lights you can't miss it. It so nice to having a place in Candler park we can walk to, and the owners are warm and friendly. Truly a unique gem in the hood.

    Best Grilled Cheese EVER!…read more I had the three cheese grilled cheese and added bacon and sundried tomato. It was so good! Crispy and well cooked and elevated with the salt and parsley garnish. *Chef's kiss* The tomato bisque was also delicious and the kale cole slaw was such a yummy, unique take on your typical cole slaw without straying too far from the familiar slaw you know and love. Staff is super friendly, attentive, and service is quick. Next time I see this food truck around I am definitely making a stop, and so should you!
