Club sandwich
Shealita W.

Whenever I'm in the mood for a good deli sandwich, soup and salad McAllister's is my go to favorite.. I only wish the bacon was a better quality and crispy.

Burnt bread on a cold sandwich? Interesting
Macey H.

Entered your store 1 hour and 15 minutes before close. I verified with your staff that you did indeed close in an hour and a half. I ordered half a sandwich and a bowl of soup. I clearly heard your kitchen crew state, "I have to make a damn sandwich". It is very rude and unprofessional to act like that when your business is open for more than another hour. I receive my sandwich; which is supposed to be cold, with burnt bread?

Ham melt on rye
Donn D.

McAlister's is the best thing since sliced bread. Fortunately they have lots of that; Rye, whole grain, ciabatta. Whatever you need. You want your carbs? They got you covered. Or you could go with a salad! I mean I wouldn't recommend it unless you're a health nut and all. But if you want to live dangerously try one of their awesome brownies!

McAlister's Club Wrap
Jann L.

Ok I hate doing this because I have really enjoyed eating at various McAlister's Deli since first being introduced to the franchise however today's experience warranted this review. Hubby & I came for lunch we arrived after 1pm on a Saturday. It was not overly busy. We ordered a 12 inch French Dip (no cheese no butter.. dairy allergy) with a side potato salad & a Club wrap with a cucumber/tomato salad & 2 large unsweetened iced teas. Total came to $28.71. When our order came out we only received a 6 inch French Dip & when we questioned this the server that's what we ordered. Apparently the front staff today were having a "Bad" day as both female employees we had interaction with were rude & salty in the speech & attitude. Hubby did eventually get the other half of his sandwich so that was good. My wrap was less than desirable, the wrap was completely falling apart before I even had a bite it was tough & not good. The cucumber/tomato salad was missing any dressing (I've ordered it before & it normally has an Italian type dressing) before you ask did I complain no I did not especially after the attitude already experienced with the 2 front employees. Sadly, this was not a good experience at this location.

I had the half Reuben plus the cucumber tomato salad. It was excellent. The Reuben was very lean and the salad had great flavor

There were 5 of us. Menu was very simple and easy to read through. They have open kitchen, so you can see the cooks working it up in the kitchen. There are different variety of gyros and shrawma that they have. I usually order a either of it. So it's surprising to see more different one! I stick with the basic gyro and my daughter got the Philly cheese steak gyro and the beef shrawma dinner plates. We also order some appetizer and dessert. Food tastes very fresh and good. A must try spot.

This was my second visit to Crave Mediterranean Cafe on Republic Road…read more Overall, it's a solid fast-casual experience -- not fine dining, but that's clearly not what they're aiming for. We spent about $40 for two people and had table service, which was a nice touch. Our waitress was very friendly and had a great attitude, though it seemed like she might have been having an off night as there were a few small mistakes along the way. The food was good across the board -- nothing bad at all, just not especially memorable. The space itself is a plus: larger dining room, comfortable seating, and a nice place to sit and enjoy a meal. If you're comparing Mediterranean options in Springfield, I'd probably give the edge on food to Greek Belly, but Crave offers a more spacious and relaxed dine-in atmosphere. Overall, a good, reliable option -- especially if you value the setting as much as the food.

It may not be a bastion of gourmet ingenuity, but Pickleman's deserves a lot better than a 2.5 star…read moreaverage just because they bungled a few delivery orders. What evidence do I have to support my contention? I'm glad you asked. Exhibit A, and without question the restaurant's Pièce De Résistance, is the lentil chili. Now, I know what you're thinking - chili is supposed to contain meat and only a communist would proffer such a vaunted title on a vegan dish. Right? I used to think the same way, but the delicious balance of chili seasoning and fearless heat of Pickleman's take on this classic makes it one of my go-to late night dishes when I'm hanging out downtown. Exhibit B is composed of the salad selection, which features options to suit many tastes, all of which contain genuinely fresh vegetables in addition to their specific peculiarities. That may seem like a simple thing, but seasoned salad eaters know it can be rare, indeed. It may seem weird to lead off a review of a sandwich and pizza place with two options that are neither, but I've honestly never had any reason to venture beyond that side of the menu because they're both so delicious. And that they do those things so well is more than enough reason for me to juice their rating, whatever failings other reviewers have experienced notwithstanding.

I'm so glad I took their advice, the buns were soft and buttery, the meat patties were flavorful and moist. We also ordered you are smokin' fries. Apple and hickory smokes fries, loaded w/ sautéed jalapeños, cheese sauce, and we opted the pulled pork with Chipotle bbq. The fries were a hit at our table! Waygu burgers, sign me up! I end up ordering the foodie - double 4oz patties, Boursin style cheese, caramelized onion, candied bacon, w/ truffle mayo. Best damn burger I had in a long time. They offer varieties of sauces to try with your burger & fries, they bring a small tray with each sauce. Ranch, ketchup, smoky garlic mayo, chipotle BBQ, chipotle ketchup, truffle mayo, and sriracha mayo just to name a few. I'm a sucker for espresso so I ordered an espresso yourself shake. Espresso, salted caramel, funnel cake, coffee liqueur, frozen vanilla custard. The espresso and salted caramel balance each other out nicely. This shake lives rent free in my head. If I am ever in the city again, this would be on my top list to visit. Definitely would recommend you trying Black Sheep.

J. Parrino's Queen City Deli -- "More Than What Meats the Eye"…read more It's no wonder why J. Parrino's Queen City Deli is more than what meats the eye. The name behind it, Joe Parrino, is a renowned St. Louis restaurateur known for blending Italian tradition with classic St. Louis-style soups, sandwiches, and pastas -- and that mix absolutely shines here in Springfield. From the outside, you might not think much of it. But as they say, IYKYK. This is definitely not a book to judge by its cover. Tucked on the east side of Sunshine, it's the kind of local gem you'll want to keep in your lunch rotation. I started with the Milo Salad, and wow -- thick cuts of salami and pepperoni, fresh cheese, crisp lettuce, crunchy homemade croutons, and a perfectly sliced hard-boiled egg. The dressing took it to another level -- creamy like Caesar but with a tangy vinaigrette twist. Honestly, I almost forgot to take a photo because I couldn't stop eating. And that garlic breadstick? Fresh, soft, and buttery perfection. Next up was the Parrino Special, their house sandwich -- prosciutto, salami, and incredibly tender roast beef stacked between garlic bread buns and topped with a house salad. Every bite was a dream: the crunch of the bread and salad with the tenderness of the meats created layers of flavor and texture that just worked. Pure happiness between garlic bread. The team here is friendly, fast, and full of good recommendations -- you can tell they care about what they're serving. If you're looking for a local spot that nails the trifecta of soups, salads, sandwiches, and pasta, Queen City Deli might just become your new favorite lunch stop.
