    Drink prices, but they'll just charge the highest, no matter what you order.
    Robert B.

    First time coming to a McAlisters, just getting a drink while my daughter is at the dentist next door. Writing this review from the dining room. Menu has different drinks listed at different prices. Iced tea? $2.99 Lemonade? $3.99 Lemonade tea? $3.29 Ordered a lemonade tea. And got charged for lemonade. Asked associate why the price was different. Her response was that they are supposed to ring all the drinks up as that, since the lemonade is more expensive. When I asked about it more, she just said, "you'd have to ask someone higher up than me". Store seems clean and quiet. Menu looks like it has some good options, but this experience isn't a great introduction. A 25% billing error and poor service isn't a way to encourage future business.

    You Pick 2: SpudMax in the back, Southwest Chicken & Avocado salad in the front
    Arada H.

    At around 4 pm on a Sunday, this deli was busy, though more take-out than dine-in. Staff taking orders was very pleasant. Our wait for food was reasonable considering the crowd. However our salad, the Chicken & Avocado salad, had only one small glob (messy) of BROWN avocado. Menu photo shows a green half avocado nicely sliced. We got the opposite. Also ordered (half) SpudMax, which is supposed to have Ham, turkey, bacon, cheddar-jack, green onion, black olives and sour cream. We asked for no black olives, and they did comply, but the other toppings were not loaded near the quantity on menu photo. Just be warned.

    Spicy southwest chicken sandwich.

    Portion size for a $12 pick two is ridiculous. Who do they think they are Panera bread? Hamster sized food portions. I'm so full from my White Castle sized sandwich

    A good casual place to grab a sandwich and salad. Or a spud. I like to get a Choose 2. The Italian salad is really good, and the smaller size in the Choose 2 is enough for a whole meal. I also like the salad and sandwich that have cherries in them. Lots of options for everyone. Good service. Fairly quick during the busier times of day. Get their tea.

    This has become one of our go-to places when with our extended family. The variety of choices as well as the quality of the product is always good. Wasn't always that way. Once we came by a few years back and the sides didn't taste the same. Mentioned it to the Manager and he said thanks for the feedback. They had tried a new supplier trying to save costs and there was so much negative feedback they were going back to their original supplier once things needed to be reordered. Nice to see a business admit an error and take feedback and work to get things right. We try to avoid main rush hours to get prompt service. The place is always clean and bright. Haven't run across and employee that didn't have a positive attitude.

IF you find it...I passed by it my first go round because it is so tucked away in a corner among non-retail businesses. I ordered at the counter - the Cuban with a side, Caesar salad. I sat outside and my lunch was brought out to me. Can I just say that this was probably one of the best Caesar salads I have ever had? There was a true citrus tang to it that was just so fresh and delicious. I could've eaten a mountain of that salad and the homemade croutons were exceptional and full of butter too. No boxed croutons here. At first glance, the Cuban looked a little skimpy on the meat from what I'm used to, but the quality of the bread and the grill press were so exceptional that I had high hopes. It did not disappoint - the flavors were phenomenal and the size was just right. This is a truly fantastic sandwich and I will definitely order it again & again. Our office is moving close to this business near the end of summer and I envision this becoming a fan favorite, not only for me, but for others in the office. I picked up several catering menus to hand out to other departments and I plan to have them cater many meetings in the future if the quality of their other menu items can hold a candle to their Cuban and Caesar salad. Yum! Note, they also have a small breakfast menu.

    Love it! My favorite hole in the wall restaurant. Luckily it's right around the corner from work!read more

    Wally's is basically like a miniature Beaver gas station, and it has become part of our Six Flags…read moretradition! There are so many gas pumps that you should never have to wait for one, and once you walk inside, there's a whole experience waiting for you. They have a similar setup to the Beaver location, with gourmet popcorn, beef jerky, pulled pork, brisket, smash burgers, chicken fingers, hot dogs, and so much more. And, most of the food is pretty reasonably priced. Whenever we go to Six Flags in this area, we have a tradition of stopping at Wally's on the way there to grab dinner. Then, when we leave Six Flags, we'll stop again to get a drink for the drive home. It's usually much more affordable than eating inside the amusement park, and there are so many options that everyone can find something they like. This weekend, our group had a little bit of everything. We had someone get a hot dog, someone got chicken fingers, others had smash burgers, chopped brisket, and pulled pork. Everyone agreed it was "bussin," which, according to the high schoolers, means it was really good! They also have these kettle chips that come in a bag that doesn't look particularly huge, but somehow there are SO many chips inside. We passed the bag around the car and still had leftovers for the ride home. The girls also had to get a slushie, which was especially refreshing because it was so hot outside. And since they have their own bakery, I grabbed a cookie, and it did not disappoint. There's also plenty of shopping, including blankets, T-shirts, postcards, stickers, and all kinds of other souvenirs. They even have their own hot sauce! This definitely isn't a place where you're going to run in, grab something, and immediately leave. There's so much to look at that you're going to spend some time wandering around. For us, Wally's has become just as much a part of the Six Flags experience as the amusement park itself. It's something we look forward to both on the way there and on the way home, and this weekend was no exception!

The employees were making batch after batch of the different entrees, and cleaning well between each. So, I did wait a few minutes for the sliced brisket to be on deck. BUT once the meat started going on the bun, a staff member spotted me and asked how many I needed. Just the one. He had it wrapped up and in my hand in no time. The food was good. Everything looked clean. The iced coffee bar hit the spot.

The service is prompt and helpful, the portions are generous and it is very inviting and comfortable in the dining area. Everything seemed fresh and prepped on the day it is served and the wonderful tastes of everything we have tried so far is superior to many other restaurants. I am not including any chain store, fast food or literally not-even-Italian places like.. well, I think you know which ones I mean. If you want real food that is real good and you don't want to break the bank, Giuseppe's is the place to go. And don't forget, they cater as well, so if you have an event or a party or any reason to order a large quantity of Italian goodness, pleas do yourself and your guests a favor and order from Giuseppe's Lunch and Catering!
