    The service has definitely improved.. friendly .. the food was made fresh to order and was very good .. all the ingredients were fresh and crisp ... restaurant was clean and the tables were all clean

    Skimpy French dip
    Chain B.

    The service was fine. The food tastes fine. My issue is the skimpy sandwiches. I got a French dip. I posted a pic. I am no expecting a big pile of meat overflowing the bun so I do expect more that 2 little thin slices of meat. It make it a La Croix of sandwiches. It's like a couple pieces of bread drove by a cow once. Meat-ish flavored. Y'all can do better.

    Usually we hit the Jason's Deli after visiting my mothers grave. But none of us were hungry at the time so we hit here instead later in the day. Not too busy around noon on the Wednesday before Thanksgiving. Servers were nice. Plenty of seating. I liked the New Yorker over the Ruben. Both served hot and come with one side. Potato salad on the sour side. But I liked it over the tomato and cucumber salad. I'd probably pick Jason's next time, especially with their free self serve ice cream. But it was a good alternative to driving out to the grave site again just for a sandwich.

    There's the one little avocado slice that cost $1.25. That's how the sandwich looked when I received it. Looks appetizing (insert sarcasm)

    In all honesty I'm going to blame this review on myself..... Why you ask, because I continue to return and each time it's worse than the last. I need to realize that all McAlister's in Shelby County, TN. Are absolutely horrid. The staff is rude, the place is usually filthy and my food is never prepared the way I order it. They're always out of food too. I ordered a club sandwich with no mustard, of course there was mustard on it. I paid for avocado and there was 1 little slice on it. At this point it's now comical just how bad the food/service is.

    We the seniors at the DeWitt Coalition Center would like to thank the restaurant manager at the Collierville Tennessee location for his gracious generosity and donation to our Valentine's Day Gala for our seniors. The seniors really enjoyed their day it really meant the world to them and we appreciate everything that you done and such great service. I have also delivered a thank you card with the pictures of the seniors at their Valentine Gala to the Collierville location. Again we are so appreciative and thankful for your generosity.

    Veggie spud

    This location is a hit or miss. I love the food mccalisters offers but majority of the time is always something wrong with my order. Today I received my veggie spud with BURNT peppers. They burned the pepper and preceded to put it on the potato anyway? I'm very upset.

    Southwest Cobb salad
    Stephanie P.

    I really love McAlister's menu. Of all the deli style restaurants, it has always been my favorite. If I want a soup, salad, or potato, I always come here. There are only two issues with this place. First, no matter what I order for my husband, he is never impressed. He goes for the different sandwiches and is always still hungry. So I try not to come here if I am feeding both of us. Second (and the main issue), is that there is no control or review process over orders. If you are eating in, this is not an issue but it is always an issue on to go orders. I always pull out each item and it never fails. I will be missing a salad dressing, side item, something. I have learned that this is an issue so I check my orders beforehand and correct it before I leave. The managers need to start hiring or instilling some of that Chick-fil-A attitude in their employees, because it is clear that they do not give a darn. (Actually after reading some other reviews..... maybe the franchise owner needs to hire some new managers.)

    The pimento cheese extravaganza
    Barrett O.

    It's time to do an updated and more in-depth review because things change here with management and staff so here goes. Today's visit was very pleasant and the young folks behind the counter, in the kitchen and food deliverer were on the ball, and it pretty busy so thumbs up. The place was neat and ran and everything was well stocked so another check mark. My soup and salad were good and man that pimento cheese BLT was really terrific. I thoroughly enjoyed lunch with my sweetheart today before having to leave town and we agreed that we will put Mcalister's back in our regular rotation for lunch spots. I put the poster up for the pimento cheese specials and trust me when I tell you that the pimento cheese is really tasty. I practically grew up on the stuff and I am pretty picky about the flavor. It's cheesey and has a rich flavor and it's the real deal. PLUS they gave us 20% off because we'rr both Navy vets, so hey all you vets make sure to sound off to get your deal.

    Got a grilled chicken salad the other day, barely edible. Chicken was sparse, lettuce was all white iceberg- not good!

    Maeve's Tavern has been absolutely outstanding. We're visiting from out of town and have eaten here…read morefor four days straight because every single meal has been that good. The food is consistently amazing, whether it's lunch, dinner, appetizers, or dessert. Every dish we've tried has been fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. The drinks are excellent as well, and the bartenders clearly know what they're doing. What really sets Maeve's Tavern apart is the service. The staff is friendly, attentive, and makes you feel welcome from the moment you walk in. It's rare to find a restaurant that delivers such a great experience every single visit, but Maeve's has done exactly that. If you're anywhere near the area, I highly recommend making a stop here. This has easily been one of the highlights of our trip, and we'll definitely be back the next time we're in town.

    Maeve's Tavern is one of those places that just gets it right. From the moment you walk in, there's…read morean easy, welcoming feel. It's comfortable without trying too hard, lively without being loud. It's the perfect sibling to Celtic Crossing and Bog and Barley. I was especially happy to see Sky Dog Lager on tap. It's a great local choice. Refreshingly crisp. The real standout is the fish and chips. It was so good I forgot to grab a picture. Not a hint of greasiness, but all the flavor. It's a big piece too, not fish sticks. It's the kind of dish that makes you pause after the first bite and ease into how good it is. Easily among the best I've had around here. Maeve's has that rare mix of solid food, good drinks, and a genuinely inviting atmosphere. I can see myself coming here again and again.

However, no impact to service generally. During our visit, there did seem to be something happening with the cocktails as several members ordered the same cocktail, but it was clear they were not made the same as the color and taste were very different. First time experiencing this issue and we did bring it to their attention. Starter: general tso's tso's cauliflower. Brunch: The honey hot chicken and waffles is my go to when I want a sweet and savory meal. The maple syrup is my favorite and really bring the dish together. Cocktail: raspberry Rita. Simple but delicious.

Our dislikes were (2) items : Some guy in a gray worn polo , approaches us while seated and inquires how are we doing. He didn't announce who he was and didn't come across well. We said we were ok , and he walked off. Next item are the seats of the booths. They are showing signs of extreme wear ( fabric material cracking off ) for a restaurant that hasn't been in operation for too long. Sorry for being a resident of Collierville , we expect better from our restaurants. The redeeming quality was the server , she was polite , happy and attentive. Stu
