First time I've ate there in years. Everything was the same quality or better. The person bringing it to the table was a very kind person. The food was brought on time and good quality and delicious!! read more

1st timer and I tell you what, the salad looked nice on the menu but tasted spoiled, what was supposed to be grilled chicken, looked and tasted like someone went to the store, bought a rotisserie chicken and rotten blue cheese and threw it on a plate of old packaged greens. Sorry but a bite or two of that salad and I was disappointed. Sandwiches were okay, tomato bisque and broccoli cheddar soup was ass. Tomato bisque tasted like as if they bought a canned tomato sauce from across the street, heat it up and served it on a platter. Broccoli cheddar soup was the worst I've had in my life. Placed looked nice but I got catfished with the food. read more

Came here 15 minutes before they close to get a to go order and they said they're not serving anymore. These lazy people need to quit closing down their kitchen early because they want to leave. It's your job do it right! read more

This was our first time eating at McAlister's. I gave it a 1 because we both ordered chicken tortilla soup and it was the worst chicken tortilla soup I have ever eaten. It was more like cheesy broth with a couple of small pieces of chicken and a couple of peas. It was really terrible soup. They should take it off of their menu. read more

I orders ice tea, cookies (to take home), and the choose 2. I initially chose 1/2 sandwich (it was good), and 1/2 soup with the soup being chicken pot pie. When I took the first bite of soup it was called and had just arrived at the table. I asked them to just exchange it for baked potato soup and it was hot, but no potatoes. It was only broth, a few chives, and a tiny bit of bacon. Highly disappointed! At this point I'm just done, so it was time to move on because if it's not right after 2 times then it's not going to be right a third time! Ice tea was great. Cookies are yet to be determined. Cashier and the young lady that took the soup back were nice. Also has 4 large televisions to watch sports on. Plenty of room in the dining area for large groups. read more

McAlister's Deli - "Supposed" to be baked potato soup. Do you see any potatoes? - Delis Near Me - St. Joseph, Missouri

Large portions and lots of options on the menu. We don't have McAlisters near us but I would recommend it. I like the pick two option. It's slightly expensive but everywhere is these days. read more

They have good service good food good parking their soup is really good they have a good variety so yes I would go back there again

Food was fresh and tasted great. Plates, silverware cups and tables appeared clean. Our cashier was very friendly and went out of her way to make sure our drinks were fresh (she had to change a soda syrup out) before even handing us a drink that wouldn't taste right. I commend that because normally they don't pay attention and customers are the ones who have to complain for them to change out the bag. It was after lunch hour so the dining area was mostly empty but for us and a couple other people. read more

you have double check your to go salad every time they never make it the proper way that their other stores do. You pay for extra so they put less on the original order if any at all. read more

Went to McAllister after baseball practice and one of the first things I did was stand under a fan, I didn't feel any air coming out of it and did not cool me down, so invest in some better fans. My sandwich was decent. Could use more horseradish and some better bread other than just wheat. But that's probably just on me for ordering the wrong thing. Mac and cheese was also pretty decent. Other than that, the service was good. The food came out quick and the people were always walking around asking about refills which was very good read more

The variety and quality of this restaurant is amazing!!! I bought gift certificates and even was able to get extra ones for spending more than $25. Love this restaurant and highly recommend. read more

I just love McAlisters! This was my go to lunch spot while working in St Joe, or Weekend lunch spot while running errands. Potato salad is sooo good! Just give me a big bowl if that and I'd be happy! But highly recommend the Club or Nachos-can't go wrong with those! read more

Had the McAlisters club sandwich with potato salad, it tasted really good. The service was friendly. It was really busy for lunch.

A group of us went to lunch and someone chose this place. When I asked the cashier about vegan options he told me that he had never heard of "vegan" and didn't know what it was. lol He ended up going back to the kitchen to find out what was vegan and/or veganizeable. I ended up getting the chili and a veggie sandwich without the cheese. Veggie sandwich, post veganization, was boring and bland. The veggie chili is vegan and delicious, however, it alone is not reason for me to ever go out of my way to revisit this deli. I do appreciate that they offer one good vegan option though. read more

Always a great lunch option. I enjoy the pick 2 and a glass of Tea. So many options...most difficult part is picking which 2

Today was the first time we tried out McAlisters Deli! We made it in there before the rush came in so it was a nice quiet restaurant. Which was nice. I'm not a huge fan of large crowds so it was the ideal time for me. Walk in & there were 3 people at the counter. Some friendly some didn't say a word. No biggie. There were menus you could look at if you couldn't see the board, which was a nice option. We ordered and the food came out pretty quick. Within 10 mins or so we had our food and it was delicious. The meat on the French dip was tender and juicy. Sandwich was loaded with meat, which was awesome. Some places tend to skimp on the meat, but not this place. It was loaded. Only thing was I wish I would of ordered extra cheese. I got a side of broccoli cheddar soup & it was also delicious! It was loaded with carrots and broccoli so that made it even better. I love a chunky filled soup! We made it before the rush of lunch so we had a lot of options for seating. Chose a table by the window so we could watch out the window. We had some kiddos outside entertaining themselves by trying to get people to honk & wave. It was cute! I was also told that the bathrooms (2-3 stalls) there were also very clean as well as the rest of the restaurant. There is a sign that states to leave your plates on the table so the staff know which tables need sanitized. I love that idea. You know the tables are getting cleaned after every customer. The food was delicious so we plan on coming back for more! read more

Ordered a garden salad for lunch and when I opened the box, over half of the lettuce is brown and wilted. Called the store to inform them and received attitude from the manager stating all of their salads are made fresh in the morning. There was no apology, just attitude. I won't be eating here again. read more

Very nice clean restaurant with friendly and professional personnel. Wife loved her BLT (and she knows BLTs.) Extensive menu for deli-style foods and salads. YES, I would recommend. read more

Service at this location is horrible. Numerous times I have gone in and counters is slow. Just went in at 11:30 today one person kept answering phone. Other person busy making 10 drinks meanwhile line backing up outside the door. Won't ever return. Where is the management! read more

Clean restaurant, friendly staff. Salad ingredients were fresh. Hubby's potato was hot and filled with toppings.

Great food and great service! The food was great as always. It is in a good location with easy access to the interstate. I got the pepper jack sandwich and it was very good! And I can't recommend their sweet tea enough! read more

I love this restaurant, but there are a few problems. My favorite food to get is the caesar salad. They put way to much sauce on it and way too much parmesan. The staff are very nice, but there have been some weird encounters with the staff on some occasions. read more

This location in St. Joseph is pretty consistent. Each time I've gone it has been pretty efficient, food served at a reasonable time, service is good (could be a little friendlier), and food quality has been good as well. I love McAlister's SWEET TEA the most. We started frequenting McAlister's when we lived in Memphis, TN, and when they moved into the area I was very happy! I typically get the salad and sandwich or salad and potato combos. The portions are pretty huge on some items. If you get a single salad, it is literally a HUGE portion and hard to finish. The Italian Chopped Salad is a favorite. Loaded with romaine, cheese, olives, onion, salami, etc. with a balsamic dressing. The loaded potatoes will feed you and another 2 adults! read more

McAlister's Deli - SWEET TEA!!! - Delis Near Me - St. Joseph, Missouri

Horrible experience! I've ordered from here before, but today was different. I ordered off the app and was told it would be ready at a certain time. I got there just after the scheduled time and got a notification that my order was ready. A couple minutes later a gal finally asked if she could help me. She checked on my order and told me my order got pushed to the back because it was an internet order and it would be ready in 5 minutes. 15 minutes later my food was delivered and I was then told they lost my receipt and that is why it was late. I don't know what took so long to pack up nachos. When I opened the box all I had were small pieces of chips and crumbs. After the experience today, I won't risk going back and wasting my time. read more

Let the photos be your judge. Completely burnt. A table spoon of chicken salad. Half sandwich seemed small, but I guess it probably shrinks when engulfed by flame. The family spent $50 bucks on carry out. I know...not too terrible much in these days. I figure we will just never go back. Oh heck...I decided to go talk to a manager. Might as well waste my whole Friday night and drive back. She told me that's how they usually are, but this was a bit burnt. So I followed up and asked if I was eating in, you'd proudly serve me this exact sandwich, which she replied yes. So I showed the other people in line and asked them if they thought this was edible...all were a big NO. I could see that the shift manager did not give a hoot. She offered to remake it. I just got a refund. I mean really what's the point when it's clear that the manager and staff don't care whatsoever. By this time I'd probably receive a sandwich with a Lou-gee in it. And if I tried to get through to her I'd probably be in a TikTok video...lol. It's disheartening what these workers think is acceptable. I should add that the young man that rings in the order is excellent and respectful. Too bad he's not in charge. read more

After my husband raving about other McAlisters while traveling for work, I was excited to try it. Unfortunately the one in St Joe is not up to the standards of the others. They toasted my croissant making it dry any unappetizing. The cheddar soup was thick and nasty, and my pickle was far from crisp. Not sure I'm up to trying others in this chain. read more

Cane to this location 2, the first time I got a salad with avocado. The complaint about this was it literally have 1 slice of avocado. The second time I got the veggies sandwich with ham added, it was very yummy. read more

I always seem to get great service and good to great food. I like that I can get a great salad if I'm watching the carbs, or a huge potato if I want the carbs. Both are plenty for a meal. Staff looks to see who needs a refill and ask if They can do it. Always friendly and seem to like their job. read more

The choose 2 is a perfect selection. Highly recommend the New Yorker - lots of meat! and chef salad, with half sweet/half unsweetened tea!

They have good food,but the portions were on the small side. I ordered a hot ham & cheese sandwich with a tomato & cucumber salad. The sandwich tasted great, but the tomato & cucumber salad wasn't what I expected. I actually expected a salad. It was cucumbers in a small bowl with onions and some kind of vinaigrette dressing and no tomatoes. Unfortunately, I am leaving hungry. Not good when you spend $25 for two people. read more

My favorite spot in St. Joseph. This is the place that I take my out-of-town and out-of-state family to eat at. Never a disappointing time when I come here. The service is fast, the workers are friendly, and the food is addicting! This place has the best tea I have ever had in my entire life. It's made just the way I like it, and they put lemon in it also. A big whoppin' YUM! The soups and the salads are just delicious. Simply made, fills you up fast, and you leave with plenty of tea to drink for later. I love this place. Way better than Panera! Yep, I said it! read more

Roast beef with horseradish sauce was delicious. I would have preferred the horseradish a bit more spicy, they mixed it with something that made it a little too sweet. I had mashed potatoes and gravy as my side and they tasted like my Grandma's, amazing. We will be back a few times at least. I like their half and half deal, great prices. read more

Definitely, my favorite lunch spot in St. Joe. I have probably completed dozens of the "Free Meal", "Free Tea" cards. Since the first day McAlister's has opened, I've been a regular. The menu is fresh, unique, and is frequently home to new additions. Their menu includes: * Clubs * Panini's * Wraps * Hot Sandwiches * Classic Sandwiches * Salads * Giant "infant-sized" Spuds * Appetizers * Desserts Every entrée item I've tried has been absolutely delicious. My favorites would have to be the McAlister Club or the Cobb Club. Mmm...mmm...mmmm... As for as the sides, I'm not the person to ask which is the best. Since day one, I've gotten nothing but the potato salad. It's that good. I don't care or am even curious about the other sides, it's that good. The pickle, however, is sad-looking. I have this thing about pickles. I know it's not the main part of your meal, but it's important to me. It's all about the details. The tea, on the other hand, is addictive. Luckily, they give you a bucket of drink with your meal, so it generally lasts awhile. Generally, after repetitively going to the same restaurant, I'll eventually get burned out on a place. Not with McAlister's. There are times my husband and I will eat there 3 times in a week. McAlister's is always packed around lunchtime. Nearly every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday the line makes it out the door. If you want to avoid the traffic, it's better to go in the evening. There's generally no wait to order. Busier times always makes getting refills lengthy. I've not only eaten at McAlister's, I've taken advantage of their catering service. Their prices are highly competitive and the service was great. All of my orders were on time and meals were individually packaged. This eliminated the problem of "over-eaters." If you find yourself in St. Joe, looking for a good place to have lunch, search no more. read more

I am so glad I passed up Denny 's for something different. The salad I had was fresh and delicious. Fast and friendly service on the road. read more

Food is good but the menu is incredibly confusing & when I received my "grilled chicken salad" it wasn't what I ordered. No chicken and not even the correct dressing. I then ordered soup to take it to go but they couldn't even manage to get a simple cup of soup out within 30 min. I left without the soup, I do not see myself returning to this restaurant. read more

They made my sandwich incorrectly with no honey mustard or mayo on their McAllister club?? They can't make their signature sandwich right?? The tortilla soup had big globs of burnt goo in it and when this was brought to the managers attention, I'm told there's nothing they can do about it because I ate most of it. What a sorry bunch of inexcusable nitwits!! May you go out of business! read more
