McAlister's Deli offers fresh food and sweet tea, with some customers praising the amazing combination of soup and sandwich, or the sandwich baked potato. The restaurant is known for its great cookies, flavored lemonades, and particularly the sweet tea, which has received five-star reviews. While customer service can be inconsistent, many have noted improvements over time, with some highlighting absolutely amazing customer service and great management. The general manager often greets customers, and the front line staff contribute positively to the experience.
However, there have been issues with missing items in orders, such as soup, leading to frustration when replacements are not offered unless the full order is returned. Pickles are also sometimes missing from to-go meals. Despite these concerns, the food is frequently praised, including the Spuds and cucumber salad, and the atmosphere is described as generally clean. The service, while variable, has seen significant praise, especially in cases like a recent to-go order mistake that was resolved with excellent customer service, including a free delivery of the correct order. This deli is a great spot for dining in, carry out, and catering, making it a popular choice for many.
