I ate lunch here three days out of my five day stay. The first two days were great. The third, they were out of the soup I wanted and out of chili for the nachos. I got the nachos anyway. After about 30-35 minutes, I asked about my order since I had to return to work. Apparently the kitchen had inadvertently cleared the order without making it. It seemed like a big ordeal to get it remade but I obviously hadn't eaten. Meh. Had that happened the first or second day, I wouldn't have gone back. But things happen. Overall the experiences were good. read more

Nothing even close to the Pic. I understand most things don't look like their pictures. I did expect more than the 4 tiny pieces of avocado in the corner and it looks like a handful of stuff was just thrown in the middle. I used to get amazing salads from here, this one didn't come close to a 12.00 salad. read more

McAlister's Deli - What i ordered - Salad Near Me - Huntsville, Texas

See all

Placed the order online, picked it up at the window. After driving off, we noticed the potato salad and cookies for the kids meals are missing. Went back, got the potato salad and was told the cookies are complementary and they were out. No substitution was offered. Kids were unhappy. After driving off, we started to eat our BLTs, guess what? No avocado! Drove back, went inside to complain. Was told they were going to remake the sandwiches. I noticed cookies on the counter and asked about them. Was told those are not the cookies that come with the kids meals. No apology, nada! Spent over $50 for food, didn't receive everything that came with the meals, had to come back twice . Customer service is definitely not present. If I was working there, I'd offered a substitution and something for free for the inconvenience. But hey! Not there. The kicker is, the food wasn't even good. read more

No, I tried once again McAllister's and I will not be going back now for sure when you go out to eat do you want to have good service along with good food and a nice place to eat, but I got none of these this time. In the past, I have spoken out that there is trash Behind the booth and the window. It has still not gotten cleaned up truthfully the food was not that great anyway this time I ordered a potato, they did not have butter for the potato, and a Caesar salad there were at least 15 pieces of lettuce that was brown, and I did not order a brown salad, but that is what I received. That all the tables were dirty and there was only three people for Workers in there. There was one person in front of me when I ordered and it took them 10 minutes to get to me because they were all standing around talking even after everybody left nobody cleaned up they were standing there talking playing on their computer this is my final. I will not go back there again. read more

This new kicken crab soup is the most disgusting thing i've ever eaten , not to mention it was so extremely spicy i couldn't eat it at all. Neither could my friend that i bought one for either. If something is spicy it should state that it's spicy. I wasted money on these two bowls of soup and want my money back read more

I don't suggest this establishment, cash register staff are extremely unprofessional. They prefer speaking on personal issues at work while turning their backs to customers WAITING to place an order in. Seems like their conversation is more important instead of attending customers and having an attitude for interrupting the conversation. read more

Great food, went on Halloween and it was cutely decorated! Everyone was in costume and super nice.

Not bad, but there are several things that take away from eating here, not big enough individually to be a big deal, but together you walk away not having the best experience. First, it's extremely cold inside. I love cold places, I sleep with the AC on all night, I don't think I've ever turned off the AC in my car, when others are bitching about it being cold in a room, I'm like this is great. This place is too cold for me. I have to eat outside. And that is less than ideal, but ok, is what it is. Except, they clearly don't care about their patio area, it's dirty, there's no umbrellas or awning, or anything blocking the sun. The tables look like someone drove through them and two of the three tables were pushed all the way in the corner and 8-10 chairs were jammed into them in a way as to almost discourage anyone from using them, and I'm thinking a server did that so they don't need to go outside. They have paper and trash on them, it's a chore to move the tables and chairs to make a space. And if it wasn't 60° inside, it wouldn't be an issue. Next up is paying and having a tip screen jammed in the process. Also an issue that alone would not be an issue. Every time I've been to a McAllister's in the past, the ordering was like going to McDonald's but once you sat down, you do get some attention. So tip accordingly. Well, not here, someone eventually takes the plates, but no one cleans up the little stuff. Several of the tables inside had straw wrappers on them as well as other trash. No one came by and asked me or the other table if they want a refill of completely empty glasses, when they brought my food it had no silverware or napkins, or salt or sugar. I had to go get all that stuff. I had to move the tables, I had to try to clean up a space, I expect to have to do that at McDonald's. I don't get a tip line there. If you expect a tip, I expect you clean off the table, and bring the needed items to eat with any meal. Also refill my drink. Lastly the amount of food you get has shrunk, used to they would cut out a bowl sided hole in their bread bowl, but now it is about cup size and instead of going down 90% of the bread, they go 50% of the way. The sandwich also feels smaller. It is probably about as much a loss as you would expect with inflation, but, for $16, plus tax and tip, for half a sandwich, a cup size amount of soup, and drink, I don't feel like I'm getting a good deal. The parking lot is a pain. There is not enough space for driving or parking here. The food was ok, But the cold, the lack of service, and the pain of parking discourages coming back to this particular store. If I do come back, I'm doing drive thru and skipping the bread bowl. read more

McAlister's Deli - Half Rubin sandwich, bread bowl of potato soup, and a sweet tea. - Salad Near Me - Huntsville, Texas

Would give 3.5 if I could just because the the crowding, but that can't be helped. I was somewhat disillusioned as a kid when I found out the tasty soups and fixins here all came out of a pouch, but they are still solid meals if somewhat bland. The staff was nice enough for a college town and the inside was very clean. The tea will always keep me coming back. read more

McAlister's Deli - Salad Near Me - Huntsville, Texas

"This reminds me of the kind of restaurant that's dreamed up in a corporate office." She then said, "my salads not entirely terrible." So, we've driven by here many times over the years, but never stopped in. We probably should have kept driving. Part of the problem was my fault: why would I order a Reuben in Texas? Well, Houston actually has several very good delis, with outstanding and authentic Reubens. This wasn't one of them. Although it looked nice in the box when we picked it up, a large portion of meat, marbld rye bread and melted cheese, it had no taste at all. Or to be more accurate, it had more salt than taste. So the overall flavor was similar to a thin sliced ham grilled with some butter. The accompanying tomato and cucumber salad had a little bit of both but was mostly purple Onion. See photo. Even that had no taste. read more

McAlister's Deli - What should have been a tomato and cucumber salad. - Salad Near Me - Huntsville, Texas

I know it's a chain, but damn if this restaurant doesn't remind me of the greasy sandwich shop I grew up in the back of.

It's my favorite restaurant in Huntsville! There isn't one thing I have ever ordered that I didn't want to get again and the carrot cake is to die for. It's the best and cleanest place and nicest waitstaff. read more

I was standoffish of this place just because I'm not a fan of chains, but being from a small town, you don't really have many options. Man was I wrong! We were greeted at the door with a "Welcome to McAlisters!" And smiles!! I decided on the taco salad! The second I saw it served on a glass white plate, I knew it was going to be good!! The salad took up the whole plate and was crisp and fresh. It was topped with chili, guacamole, tomatoes, jalapeños, and cheese! (Opted for no sour cream or onions.) I chose the chipotle ranch as a dressing but didn't even use it! The salad had tons of flavor!! I will definitely order it again! Super clean facility and awesome staff!!! Two of my former students were also employed there! So proud of them!! read more

McAlister's Deli - The taco salad is amazing!! Chipotle ranch on the side, but not needed! Plenty of flavor with the guacamole and jalapeños! - Salad Near Me - Huntsville, Texas

What an amazing experience! I came from Houston to see family and was surprised by the fast service, delicious food, and delightful service. I had the amazing pleasure of having Isabelle as my cashier and she was beyond amazing. I personally had a pick-up order and she was very patient and very knowledgable about the whole menu. The atmosphere is also very lively, when I was there around 2:00pm on a weekend it seemed like a very fun place to be. So many patrons, but at the same time it was controlled. To further go on, the food was on top of it. I personally had the Kings Club and let me tell you this sandwich was HUGE! Definitely recommend if you are looking to get filled up and have leftovers. To top it all off they even accept service member discounts. Nothing else could have made this experience better, definitely coming back! read more

McAlister's Deli - Salad Near Me - Huntsville, Texas

Gluten-free bread allows me to have a quality sandwich w/o the issues. Mac and cheese is hit or miss, desserts not so great, but they are a deli so what the do right is deal fair. So much better for you than a greasy burger. read more

I have not been in McAllister's deli for several years because of the food and paper that you can see that is behind the booth that is backed up to the window. Have talked to the owner and the finally remove a small amount of paper. Anyway, decided to go in there last night, and I will not be returning to McAlister's Deli. The people behind the counter were even incompetent ordered a veggie potato and I got a plain potato with chives on it and I finally just said I want my money back it's really not even worth going out to eat anymore if I have to deal with this, so I will not be going back. read more

Check your To Go order before you Go. Discovered 10 miles down the road that i got a Turkey sandwich instead of the New Yorker. But the sandwich was good, so was the tea just wasn't what I wanted. Staff was polite and young - the kitchen messed the order. read more

McAlister's Deli is great if you like fresh, wholesome food...sandwiches and soups and other sides. The food does not disappoint and you will go back again. The restaurant is clean and well maintained and service is great. They have a killer carrot cake for desert. I have no problem recommending McAlister's Deli. read more

Blonde older lady manager is a bitch. Walked in at 9:20, they said they were closing soon. They were closing at 10. Said I couldn't get anything toasted or pressed. So I ordered a club sandwich. It was literally like a mountain of smushed bread with honey mustard and lettuce. Y'all suck ass. read more

At first I was a little worried walking in here to eat but after eating their food I was happy. The service was really good, the girl was so sweet. You also get 10% off with your Bearkat card. The brookie, was pretty good also. Yummy sandwich, I had the Mac and cheese it was good just lacked seasoning but overall my experience was great. I would come back to eat here again! read more

For a McAlister's, everything was great and as expected. The service was very quick and attentive for our drinks/refills. This is a great place for groups too given the variety of options on their menu and the healthy amount of seating. They even have an outdoor area for not-too-hot days. I honestly can't complain for what's to be expected for a chain restaurant - which I normally don't write reviews for if that gives you an indication on its overall "solid"-ness. read more

McAlister's Deli - Pick-two with an AMPLE salad and turkey/avocado sandwich - Salad Near Me - Huntsville, Texas

We enjoy eating at McAlisters. The food is good and fresh. The service has been good as well. I'm knocking off 1 star due to the cleanliness of the table area during our last 2 visits. Food left on the table and the booth seats. Please don't become lax on cleaning just because some people have been vaccinated! read more

Every time I come here the employees are so nice and help me figure out what I should try next. If there are any problems they take care of my issues. My favorite restaurant here in Huntsville; I am here every week! The Mac and cheese and sweet tea is my absolute favorite. read more

Ate today at free preview and it was delish! I got the Smoky pepper jack turkey sandwich on ciabatta and tortilla soup (yumm) and Hubby got McAllister's club with cheddar broccoli soup. Everything was good and the unsweet ice tea was refreshing. Very good service and nice atmosphere. Lots of other menu items I'd like to try, will definitely be back. Opens Monday January 29. read more

The freshest salads around! Delicious tea and quick service. Love going to this deli at least 3 times a month.

this location is the best McAllister's deli I have ever been to, the service was amazing and the food was cooked to perfection. I haven't had any problems here at all and the employees were so nice! Trey, Josh, Faith, and Niki were so attentive, and really helped me with my complicated order. if anyone's looking for a great place to eat, come to McAllister's in Huntsville, I got the sweet and smoky chicken with a few substitutions as well as 4 salads for my family SO GOOD!! read more

The sandwiches are delicious but the lady manager is rude, make sure you call and get your correct order cause they don't pay attention. Got a ham and cheese sandwich I got a sandwich with one flimsy slice of cheese that's it no meat read more

Too cold to enjoy our meal. Picture this: It's July, in Texas, and more people are eating outside than inside. We felt the attic chill as soon as we entered and saw a family of three shivering as they ordered at the counter. I suggested to my family that we just go somewhere else and my husband encouraged me to ask them to turn up the thermostat. As I went to order, I asked the server if they could turn it up. She said there is nothing they could do about it, then changed her mind and said she could ask her manager. She went to the back and came back to tell us the good news: They will turn up the thermostat. We looked for the warmest spot we could find near a window. It never got warmer. We froze our way through dinner and watched as patrons shivered there way through the door. We finally decided to finish in the warmth of the car. My sons glasses steamed over as we walked out the door! We won't be back, not because of the food, but because of the cold and the manager that lied about turning up the thermostat. read more

McAlister's Deli - His glasses fogged up when we walked outside. - Salad Near Me - Huntsville, Texas

I just spent 20 minutes waiting in the drive through only to be told when I got to the window that due to Covid they're not taking orders at the window, you have to use their app or call in your order. How about putting some signs up instead of making people wait forever? This is not the first time I've had a problem at this location, but it will be my last. They have lost me as a customer. I won't be going back. read more

Really poor experience. 1. Waited in line to order for nearly 15 minutes on a Saturday afternoon. Saw multiple people waiting for food and not get it while we were waiting. Only one person taking orders while at least 10 people were in line. 2. Once we got to the register to order, they told us "we don't have any potatoes, and we can't make biscuits." A couple people in our party wanted a potato so we had to adjust what to order. 3. Waited a long time after we ordered. In fact we have been waiting nearly 15 minutes as I type this review and still no food. I have had time to type this out, reread more than once, edit and submit. On the plus side the facility is very clean and looks new. We stopped on the way back home from an out of town visit. We always love McAlister's, but this experience was a big let down. Maybe it was just a bad day at the restaurant. read more

Friendly staff, yummy tea (I had peach tea first cup and raspberry tea the second) fun flavors. Got the spring summer salad and broccoli soup. Both were good! read more

I went to this deli because I thought it was good, but I was very disappointed and their employee didnt care, so I won't be returning ever and want others to know. I ordered the roast beef sandwich with onions and hoarse radish sauce and instead of chips fruit for $9 with use of $2 coupon I had. The sandwich was small and not very tasty and the fruit cup was extremely small and not good at all. I asked if this is normal size and the employee said the cup was premade and measured. I will not go there again unless I am not hungry and got a lot of extra money. Subway gives you more food and its quality too. read more

While the food is above average, the service is quite poor. My order was wrong literally 3/3 times before I decided to throw in the towel and buy my food somewhere else. Do yourself a favor and go to Subway instead. read more

Always good food but always way too cold. I at outside here yesterday and every person who walked out the door said how freezing it was inside read more

The management here blew me away! He was continually cleaning and moving and checking in with guests! He was opening doors for guests and helping them order. I was seriously blown away at his costumer service. The cashiers were very sweet and ready to help. Food was made well and delicious!! read more
