McAlister's Deli — Restaurant in McAllen

Came in and tried the pork sandwich but wow they got carried away with the mustard yes it gives it a good flavor but it was a bit too much that it's like eating a sour or mustard sandwich every bite I took was just sour. I wouldn't order it again. Sandwich was just made sloppy.

Came in and tried the sammiches was good as always a bit pricey but was good food. It was good. the only thing was disappointed on the full-size Nachos it isn't worth the price, or should I say you don't get your moneys worth. They are a bit shysty on the ingredients to the nachos. 1st, the chili was very shysty, the avocado much needed to be diced on the dish, yet it was not enough for the dish. They forgot the sour cream, too, had to ask for it. The photo explains for itself the presentation to it is not that great. And this is a shareable dish...nope it isn't. As far as the sandwich was pretty bland, I don't understand the concept on the juice (sause) they give you. I have to dunk the sammich, and it's there not a great flavor. Actually, get rid of this one and bring back the Big Nasty sammich McAllisters.it is similar. Just add gravy instead of this salty water consume. The portion on the potato salad speaks for itself to see what I mean by shysty. Overall, I think it's a bit too much for the prices either. That just serves a better portion for...

Good Deli but not for Texas. Customer service was good. Aesthetics had a diner feel which is good. The teas and lemonades are awesome. Great size for the price that is charged. The only reason I am giving it a 3 is the portions. McAlister you are too stingy for with your portion sizes. I paid 25 for 2 meals that is not including tip. Subway gives that same portion under 10 bucks. Why does a customer have to choose between half a sandwich and half a soup? That was my side: either the other half of my sandwich or half a soup. Taste was very flavorful. In Texas we do not do this to our customers. I ordered the McAlister Club. It looked nothing like the online picture. I couldn't even find the bacon and much less any sharp cheddar. I only saw the swiss cheese. It tasted like it had been done in the morning to be served sometime during the day. The freshness that was supposed to be there wasn't there. The second sandwich was the Garden Fresh Turkey: very well done! Fresh all the way. Fresh veggies, excellent bread, should be used on all sandwiches. I will be visiting next time just to take pictures to see if things...

I've been to McAlister's in several places and generally I like the chain, but this location has some issues! The foul odor when coming in the door was gag worthy! It smelled like an open sewer...whatever it was, it was an immediate appetite killer. Yuk. 🤢 Today I had a Caesar salad while my friend had the McAllister club. Both items were adequate, nothing extraordinary...if anything, a bit overpriced. The lemonade tea is great.👍 ... their coffee was horrible. It was weak and tasted like it was about the 3rd time around for the grounds...not good. Finally, I don't like the way one has to prepay the tip when paying with a card. I won't do it. I tip at the table in cash, if at all. Shame on McAlister's for not paying their staff enough and trying to beg a tip for their staff at the register before I even get my food. Silly. All in all, this visit was a big, smelly...
