    Once again, McAlister's can't get stuff right. I have been so sick and desperately wanted soup. ‍ I paid an up charge for a bowl, and received a cup. It's extremely frustrating they can't get stuff correct.

    Great food, picked up an order to go via DoorDash. Even though I was 20 minutes late, food was still relatively warm and extra delicious. Needless to say my eyes were bigger than my stomach. I still have the King Club sandwich in the fridge because the chipotle chicken spud was humongous. Great portion for the price. It's a win in my book!

    The ambiance was okay. Nothing exciting. The service was good. They forgot my carrot cake however the manager brought it to me. The food was good. However my sandwich lacked flavor. The spicy southwest chicken had no flavor. It tasted like a chicken sandwich. I couldn't taste the chipotle ranch, or relish. Very lack luster. The chicken tortilla soup was pretty good.

    Gross

    Missing items from my order and then opened up my kid's "pretzel" dogs to find this...yikes.

    Omg I tried the Mcalister Club Sandwich. This Sandwich was so Fresh and Packed With fresh Vegetables and they don't spare on the meat. You get a choice of sides . I always chose chips. I went there with a friend. She had the Mcalister Club wrap it looked plentiful as well. We got drinks I had blackberry lemonade. She had peach lemonade. Everything was delicious. Service was great. Place busy. Dine in and take out. You have to try this place out .

    A friend and I met here for lunch, our first time going. We ended up at different registers when…read moreordering. She had a guy, and I had a girl. I could hear my friend getting explanations on the salads, etc, while I on the other hand was getting glared at to hurry along with my order. I told the girl this was my first time to be there and she just stood there, saying nothing friendly, but answered a question I had abruptly and rudely. I just ordered the basic with a side of soup. I had no time to look at the other choices. When I turned around, there wasn't anyone else waiting in line. I was a bit frustrated to say the least. I know I could have taken more time, but it's hard to concentrate when you're being glared at and rushed. I'm not sure if I would recommend or not. My friend's experience was better than mine, so, I guess it depends on who's behind the counter when you order. The basic chicken salad is just that, basic, but the chicken and wild rice soup was really good. I am not going to put the girl on blast who waited on me impatiently, I'm just hoping she was not her usual friendly self because of unknown circumstances to me. I will give her that. But still, it doesn't change my review for this particular visit.

    This location is in the Arlington Highlands right off of I20. It is easy to find and there's…read moreusually plenty of parking. I come here for lunch and the service is always friendly and efficient. They were super patient when I had a ton of questions. The orders come out quickly and there is even a cooler filled with chicken salad to-go. I love their strawberry lemonade and you have free refills when dining in. Olivia's Old South flavored chicken salad is my absolute fav! I recently tried the Sassy Scotty and it was also delicious. Pro tip: eat this one as a dip!

The varied menu and the price point were just right. You pick up a cafeteria tray and point to what you'd like. I opted for the 6 item veggie plate. Portions were very filling! I tried a rocket salad, pita bread, beet salad, lentil soup, hummus and chickpea salad. In other words, a feast!! The food was very good. I also opted for a Diet Pepsi and a baklava. The salads were crispy and delicious - I loved the vinaigrette dressing which was perfectly tart. I wish I'd tried the coffee with my dessert - the baklava was a bit dry. I wish they'd opened a private side room for our party. Our table felt a bit cramped and it was a challenge to scoot into the very long booth seat which was closed off where they pushed tables together. On the whole, a really nice place and I'd definitely return!

    Andalous is one of my favorite places to eat in Arlington. It's a cafeteria style restaurant with…read moremany combo plates, salads, meats, veggies and more. A while back I went and the vegetable combo had gone up to $20! Now it's back down to $16 so I'm back. The food is as good as ever. Homemade everything. Two versions of hummus, regular and spicy, and both are delicious! Tatziki, tabouli and garbanzo salad as well as stuffed grape leaves, chicken and beet salad. And hot sides are also available on the veggie plate! Rice pilaf, roasted cauliflower, eggplant and several more. The cauliflower was amazing! If you get a meat they have many but the tenderloin kabab ("beef kabab"") was a huge hit at my table. Cooked to perfection on the charcoal grill. Just fabulous. They've got shwarma, gyro sandwiches and even more delicious meats and the freshest vegetables. The pita bread is fresh from the oven- a steaming hot pillow of goodness. They have several types of canned and bottled drinks including yogurt drink and San Pelligrino, a couple of iced teas, lemonade and various fountain drink choices. No alcohol here. If you have never been, go and if you've been, go back because it's definitely worth the visit. It is a great place to enjoy tasty homemade Lebanese, Mediterranean and Greek food. Oh! One final note: the staff is friendly and welcoming. I felt so comfortable and relaxed because they really make you feel at home .
