McAlister's Deli Reviews
Waited 35 minutes today and still no food. The folks behind us in line got there’s and still we waited. I went and checked on our status and they couldn’t find our order. I had the receipt in my hand thankfully. 10 minutes later we got our order. STRIKE ONE!! Anybody can have a bad day so I will give them one more shot in the future. Not a good impression for my first visit!
Went there around 3pm. No brownies! Seemed to be out of a lot of things. Asked for a Garden Salad with French Dressing. Was told they do not carry French Dressing. What deli doesn’t carry French Dressing. Very Dissappointed!
Mt. Vernon, IL Store- The lights were off more than 30 minutes before the store closed. They declined to make a cup of coffee for me. The reason given for both of these things was that they were closing soon (35 minutes later).

McAlister's Deli offers familiar, non-greasy sandwiches and soup, with friendly staff but sometimes slow service. The location visited was clean and not busy, serving hot, fresh food like the Italian sandwich and Chicken Salad. While some customers have experienced slow service, others appreciated the kind service, noting the helpful staff who checked on their meals and offered refills. One reviewer praised the beef spud, ultimate nachos, and Mac n cheese, highlighting the festive Christmas atmosphere. Despite occasional service issues, many love McAlister's food and look forward to their next meal, especially enjoying the Tea.
