    The Rachel, Cheddar and broccoli soup with sweet tea
    Angela R.

    The food was really good. Nice hearty portions on the meat for sandwiches. The cheddar and broccoli soup was very cheesy. The tea, it was amazing. The service was slow and they were short staffed but it was worth the wait.

    Usually, we have no issues with McAlister's. Last night, their food was fine. Same as always. I enjoy their salads and soups, even their sandwiches are pretty tasty. My kid loved the baked potato she got. And my Other kiddo loved the salad. Idk if they thought I wouldn't say anything or what but this is the cookie that is at the end of the dough that's always low on chocolate chips and teensy tiny. It came with the kids meal we got I can't help but laugh at how ridiculous it is. Thankfully, I'm a baker and we had plenty of chocolate chip cookies on hand for a quick dessert. But it was definitely a let down

    Chips

    This place has went downhill. Their soup is delicious, but their tea isn't the same delicious drink as it was for years. They were out of bread bowls on the evening of October 12, 2019. Here is an example of the chips that we had to ask for. Crumbs is what they presented with. I told my friend to bring your own crackers or chips the next time.

    The food is not fresh and sloppy. Very disappointed at the quality of bread and veggies.

    Food is good. Portion sizes are small. Tea is the worst out of any Mcalister's Deli in central Arkansas. So watered down and no sugar.

    Cafe 1217 - A Fresh Break from the Road Trip Diet…read more What a relief to stumble into Cafe 1217 after days of heading southwest on a steady rotation of BBQ, grits, and beans. Delicious, yes... but the body eventually starts asking for a vegetable and a reset. The space itself matches that feeling. Simply decorated, with bright murals, clean lines, and a cheerful, easygoing vibe that feels light the moment you walk in. My husband gave me full ordering authority, which is always a bold move. I went straight into tapas mode because everything on the menu looked too good to choose just one. We ended up with a spread: chicken pot pie (which quickly abandoned any "small plate" intentions), field greens and baby spinach, a shrimp and crawfish cake, and one of each of Rosy's authentic hand-rolled tamales. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and satisfying without that heavy, road-trip food fatigue. The mint lemonade was refreshing and delicious, a little on the sweet side, but it worked. Service, while perfectly fine, could benefit from a warmer welcome and a bit more guidance, especially for first-timers trying to navigate such an inviting menu. A little extra friendliness up front would go a long way here. Our only real regret? Not saving room for dessert. They looked very tempting, and we'll be thinking about that missed opportunity. If you're on the road and craving something lighter without sacrificing flavor, this spot is a welcome pause.
