I was the first customer in today and Brandon is the employee that took care of me. He greeted me with a big smile on his face. The time it took for my food to come out was very short too, which was nice because I was in a bit of a rush. Brandon made my experience great and is the reason I will continue to eat at McAllisters!!

I never have figured out where the trashcans are. Having to leave the tray on the table is mildly awkward.

Do not order the foot longs and Check your bag!

Yesterday 07/18/2025 my father asked me to get some things from McAlister’s, he wanted the Reuben and I wanted the footlong French Dip sandwich. I went over there and picked it up, before I got the bag I asked if they included the Au Jus sauce and they said it was in the box. I’ve had problems before with this location forgetting things, I was going to check but there were two boxes and mine was at the bottom of the bag. This was around 7:30pm and my father lives about 10 miles out of town. When I got out there there was no Au Jus sauce and it was too late to go back in for it (this location closes at 8:00pm on Saturdays). I did however call the supervisor Tish and explained the situation and asked if I could get a refund if I brought the sandwich and chips back (the entire order) to show I didn’t eat it. The sandwich is rather bland and tasteless without the sauce. She said she would have to contact her GM and reach back out to me. Fast forward today I called her back and she said that they do not offer refunds on foot longs. The exact order I got, they could however offer me a VIP sandwich but it could NOT be a foot long meal.

So this was yesterday but I've had several issues in the past with them. My father loves the place but I constantly have to go back or go inside to get orders fixed.

07/06/2025 I ordered a Grilled chicken sandwich for my dad and an ice tea. They almost forgot the tea
05/23/2025 I ordered tea, a root beer and a choose two with a half Reuben and a half new yorker with a pickle and a McCalister's club with chips and a pickle. They forgot the Reuben, the pickles and the chips
04/21/2025 I ordered Chicken and Dumplings and country potato soup. The chicken and dumplings were right but they gave me some sort of tortilla soup in place of the country potato soup.
03/26/2025 I ordered the french dip again. Same thing, forgot the Au Jus sauce and I had to go back for it.

Long story short if you want to be safe CHECK YOUR BAG BEFORE LEAVING and I would recommend not getting the footlongs as Tish and/or her GM said that they cannot refund it. The only thing they can do is give you a voucher for a cheaper order after already pocketing the cash.

They were pretty much out of everything. Seemed like a “s” show behind the counter. We walked out without ordering.

Small building, as this chain goes. Food was good, typically McAllister's. Service was promp, but I think they were short-handed because dishes were stacking up on tables and the servers were hustling.

Parking: The location of this restaurant is interesting. It is behind a lube shop and up a very steep drive, which you can access only if you are going south on US 63. There is another way in, a narrow driveway on Kingshighway, but it is unmarked. You have to know it's there.

I enjoy the food here a lot, but every visit they manage to mess something up. Once I went there and they were busy and forgot my mac and cheese I paid extra for, but I figured I’d come back and let them know the next time because they were backed up out the door. When I come back and tell someone, a lady at the counter with piercings, she seems very disinterested and said she didn’t know if they could get that for me and would talk to her manager (she didn’t.) Though recently I ordered through the app and made modifications to the food, no tomato’s and I swapped the cheese out. When I got my food at home, the cheese wasn’t on there (I paid extra) and there were tomatoes on everything. Luckily I’m not allergic, but it is still very bothersome. I love it here, but I wish they’d try a bit harder.
