Michael T.

I recently visited McAlister's Deli and left feeling a bit disappointed. While the overall flavor of the sandwiches and wraps was actually very good, there was little to no protein inside mostly bread and tortilla, which made the meal feel unbalanced and not very filling. For the price, I expected a heartier portion of meat. That said, the carrot cake was definitely the highlight moist, flavorful, and easily the best part of the visit. Great taste overall, but the protein portions need serious improvement to make the meal worth it.

My favorite spot for a 1/2 sweet and 1/2 unsweet iced tea. Always fresh and refreshing. The employees were setting up a large catering order when I walked in shortly after opening. In no time I was greeted and my food was made fresh and fast.

Gave me moldy avocado in a $12 sandwich usually good but this was so gross especially for how much you pay

This is false advertising

Soggy and not toasted, or at least it doesn't look and feel like it's toasted. In comparison to the sandwich on their menu online, it's definitely false advertising. For 50$ for 3 sandwiches and 3 teas I think they could do better at making this more appetizing and like the actual pictures. When I opened my box it was soggy and soft. And no I didn't let it sit either. I ordered and picked it up right away

Fast service, good food and plenty of options. I went for lunch to meet up with friends. I couldn't decide what to eat since everything looked very good. I ended up getting a sandwich, but next time I will get a baked potato. They have plenty of sandwich options to include vegetarian. I ended up with a vegetarian sandwich. For my side I chose a tomato and cucumber salad. The sandwich was delicious with plenty of veggies. The bread was nice and soft. The tomato and cucumber salad did have a lot of red onion in it. The good thing is that the red onion is cut pretty large so you can set it aside if needed. I ended up getting sweet tea since their sweet tea is very good. They have plenty of seating inside. They also have some seating outside. I did notice a drive-through as well. Parking is on site, but shared with the other businesses.

Small McCallister Club wrap & Mac and Cheese.

Location had very friendly staff, location was clean and plenty of seating. Plenty of outside parking, no wait. Offered a free refill and tasty food. Only reason i took a star off was because she's my meal was $11 for the McCallister club wrap and it was very small, could get a bigger wrap worth that price. Also because the restroom was dirty.

Steak and pepper sandwich limited time

Such great atmosphere! The lady at the register with blue eyeliner taking out order was so positive and nice and helpful! I did decide to try the limited time only steak and pepper sandwich ..I personally was not a fan. I stick to my usual! Lol clean and well maintained restaurant! I recommend! 10/10!

Food was good! Fast service and every side, sandwich was GOOD. I love the kids meal, big bang for your buck. Employees are always nice and helpful. The restrooms were a little messy and it was slow so I took one star for that.

I've eaten there twice and the food was good both times. The service was good and the ambiance was typical for the restaurant.

They have a good selection of sandwiches. Better tasting than some of those OTHER chain sandwich shops. Highly recommend.

I was minding my own business this afternoon and suddenly had a craving for a good New Jersey style…read moreItalian hoagie. To be more exact, I wanted an Italian hoagie from Joe's pizzeria and sub shop in Somers Point, New Jersey. To get even more specific I wanted it to be from the 1960s, when I actually lived there. I'm not even sure if Joe's still exists. Unfortunately, I have never found a hoagie in San Antonio that measures up to those in my memory. I went to Jersey Mike's when it first opened many years ago, but but I was not impressed. I felt like I was eating a tossed Italian salad on white bread. Today, all these years later, I took a chance on Jersey Mike's again. This time, to avoid the salad issue, I asked for the lettuce to be left off completely. That made a very big difference. The flavors that I wanted to taste were coming through. I think next time I need to ask for extra onions and more oregano, but it was on the right track. The only thing I didn't like about it today was the bread. I don't even know how to tell you what was wrong with it. It just wasn't Somers Point, New Jersey style hoagie bread. It was too soft, didn't have the right chew, and had a taste to it that just wasn't right. Even though it may not have been exactly what I wanted, it was the best version I've had in San Antonio. I will definitely order from there again.

Jersey Mikes is always a good choice with tons of options. My visit today was wonderful the staff…read moreprovided great customer service from the initial greeting to making our sandwiches with attention to details. Super friendly-Highly recommend!

Porky J's BBQ - Rib plate with mac and cheese and baked beans

Porky J's BBQ

I wanted to try out some Texas BBQ while I was visiting some family as a Californian. It's the one…read morething I wanted to try before heading back so I ordered quite a few things: the rib plate with mac and cheese and baked beans, a jalapeno pepper sausage, a "chosen" sandwich (which I believe was rib meat + sausage), and a side of potato salad. I really enjoyed the ribs and the sausage. Both were very smoky and fresh (despite coming in closer to closing time) and the ribs had a hint of sweetness. I think that's the Memphis style BBQ poking through. I thought the sides were just okay. The baked beans were a little too sweet for my taste, the mac and cheese wasn't cheesy enough, and the potato salad was fine. I'm giving this place four stars because what I came here, the meats, were really well seasoned and the staff was very friendly. They even gave my cousin an additional side for free. One final thing, it's a little unassuming as it lives right next to a gas station but the inside is still a decent size with seating.

This business just opened this week. My wife and I decided to try it for dinner. I had the chicken…read moreand sausage plate with macaroni and cheese and potato salad. She had a sliced brisket sandwich. The food was all very good. They use huge chicken pieces.The servings were very large for everything. The people running the restaurant were very friendly. They wore T-shirts with the logo on the front that said on the back that it was Memphis style. This location has been several different kinds of restaurant over the years. Porky J's has totally redone the interior. It is really nice and comfortable. I am happy that we now have a really close barbecue place next to us. I'll be back!
