    Chef Salad
    Deb D.

    Ordered a SW Salad and Chef Salad online. Went to pick up the food it was ready to go when we arrived. Once we returned home the horror started. Both salads were made solely of spinach that appeared to have NOT been washed. And the Avocado was molded. I called the restaurant to complain and advise I was coming back to return it for a refund. The explanation given to me from the on duty manager was a poor excuse. She admitted that the Restaurant Mgr required the staff to freeze Avocados once they become old and that was the reason for the bad vegetable. Who freezes Avocados?! She had no excuse for the poor salad prep in general. I will never eat at a McAllisters again. I did get a refund but was still charged a fee for ordering online. Explanation was that they cannot refund that charge. If this is the way they are storing and serving food to customers, it is a matter of time before customers start getting ill or worse.

    French Dip

    Food was very delicious and plentiful. I had the take two the Savannah salad and Memphian which is a 3.00 up charge. My husband had the french dip and changed to provolone cheese was 1.50 up charge. So beware, everything is an up charge. With 2 teas our lunch came to 35.00. I did have left overs. Service was good.

    For a place that serves salads, they really don't have a very good variety of vegetables to put on them. Tomatoes, cucumbers, and onions. The "veggie" chili was okay, but not great. If you're trying to eat vegan, this may not be the best place to try.

    Can anyone see the difference between the picture on the website and what I got?  After 40 minutes waiting

    Once again... hardly anyone in here and waiting 30 minutes for a to go Turkey sandwich and soup. The guy in front of me who has been waiting longer just asked for a manager. The staff couldn't possibly move any slower, and mostly keep their backs turned to the customers. They talk to each other occasionally, but it doesn't appear to have anything to do with getting the order out. Overall, this place REALLY SUCKS! Update See photos below regarding the spicy turkey melt I ordered and what I ended up with. No lettuce, no tomatoes, no avacado, no sauce, wrong bread. Soup was only filled about halfway up. Trapped waiting for 40 minutes because no one would even acknowledge me. Hope the go out of business. This is a busy area that deserves a better business to fill the space.

    So burnt they somehow only have half the potato left.

    Got the worst looking burnt potatoes I've ever seen. Absolute garbage and there's no way they didn't see how terrible they were when putting them in the box. They obviously don't care at all.

    this is a spud from two boxes of moldy spuds that as an employee we had to dig through to find the not molded ones to serve to guests.

    We had to dig in the boxes of moldy spuds to find ones that didn't look moldy so we could serve those to our guests.

    It's the little things... the food cost aren't equating to the quality/amount of food provided. Having enough dressing is a good start.

    Good food. The service was good. The manager was nice; she went around to tables talking with everyone. It was a great experience.

    Food was not correct and the kitchen staff was rude. If you don't like your job don't take it out on the customers.

    Customer service was terrible. Got hung up on multiple times and inconsistent information. The one in Fairview heights is much better.
