    Tried the Sweet & Savory chicken sandwich with BBQ chips and loved it! The sweet tea was excellent, prices were reasonable, and the restaurant was clean, spacious, and not too crowded. Would definitely visit again.

    QUICKIE REVIEW Good sandwiches. FOOD This is what I tried: -grilled chicken club Went to an event that had box lunches from Mcalisters and tried one of their sandwiches. This thing hit perfectly and was still fresh. Bread was not soggy, and there was just the right balance of all the ingredients. PARKING NA SERVICE NA PRICE NA TIP/OTHER THOUGHTS Sandwich was so good that I wouldn't mind going there and trying out the restaurant or having them deliver for an event of my own.

    The inside of this deli is gorgeous! Must have just been redone it is very modern and large inside. The bathrooms were also clean. The people working were kind and quick. I got a veggie spud and the potato was cooked to perfection. I was not a fan of the cheese sauce that came on top... it was a weird bit spicy??¿

    Dirty, dirty plate

    Not sure I'll be visiting this location anytime soon. Well to start they didn't give us any pickles with our sandwich which is OK but they will be asked it's almost 10 minutes for them to come back. Then we asked for one to go container when they brought it to the table the inside was wet. I took it back to the counter. I swapped it out and they gave me another one that was also wet. Very confused. Also when I pickles finally came to the table, the plate that they were on was covered in some type of gravy I said it wasn't clean. I hope that this was just the one day that they were off their game because I feel like I should've went somewhere else to get lunch that day.

    This location is huge! In addition to 2 dining rooms and a patio, they also have 2 glasses in rooms you can reserve by contacting the manager. I went inside to order right at 10:30 when they opened in a Thursday. I was the only customer but they still greeted me right away and I got my order quick. Looked like they also had a drive-thru so you have multiple options for ordering. They also had a cute IndyCar display right outside the front door since this location is near the Speedway. Very cute!

    First, I want to say I have the best bestie ! She took me on an outing today that landed us at McAlister's Deli ! Neither of us had ever been, so it was a new experience for us both ! We both got the pick 2 deal. I got a cup of chili and half of a horseradish, roast beef, and cheddar sandwich ! I also got a sweet peach tea to top it off. This was the perrrrfect meal ! The chili was absolutely spot on. Not a very spicy chili, but definitely full of flavor. And that sandwich ! I think I'm going to be dreaming about it for awhile. The sauce is what brought it together. The ordering process was super simple, kind of a fast food set up. And they bring the food to your table, which is a plus. I'd say it's a little on the pricey side for the amount you're getting. But the food is definitely worth it !

    I didn't feel like cooking anything! I wanted quick but delicious food. So i decided to order me some food ol' McAlister's. I did the mobile order and it was such a breeze!! I was a bit sad because i didn't see the chocolate chip cookies on the desserts part. Those cookies are my fav! Big and soft. Yum!!! ignore me. I'm greedy But my order was ready and waiting on me. It was close to closing so.. no one was really in there. The restaurant was nice and clean and the staff was friendly. Thank you guys i would recommend this location!!

    I asked for no cheese not no pickle

    I ran over here to grab something to eat while my dog was at the emergency vet. I forget what restaurant was here before but this is very nicely decorated. The girl taking my order was not listening to me at all. I specifically asked for the pick 2 either the club no cheese. She then asked what side. Uhhh you don't get a side. She says oh you wanted the pick 2. My food is done. My iced tea is no where around. I realize I wasn't charged for it. I offer to pay but the person just apologized and gave it to me. Chalk it up to they were focusing on closing. Overall the food was good. The salad was a great size for a half.

My boyfriend and I came on Mother's day (unintentionally) and we waited about 10-15 minutes to sit at the bar. Getting our orders taken & our food served definitely took a bit of time, but we enjoyed seeing all the cooks in action and getting to smell all the amazing smells!! I got Grandpa's one pan skillet and my boyfriend got the sausage breakfast sandwich on croissant bread. All I gotta say is those chefs definitely knew what they were doing! The flavors were unique and intentional and I enjoyed every bite. The home fries (potatoes) were also so yummy and everything was cooked really well. There's nothing basic about borage and I love that! This place is a gem. They also have a cafe/market area where you can order drinks and pastries. I wish we waited until we got seated to order drinks because the menu was much more extensive than what I saw in the cafe and I would have ordered a different drink had I seen all the other options. The staff here are also very welcoming and friendly. We enjoyed our little brunch and will be back with family next time!

This downtown location is super convenient. They have a small parking area where you can park for free for a limited time, which is a big plus. Otherwise, you'd have to rely on street parking. I came right around lunchtime and was pleasantly surprised that it wasn't busy at all. I love having no line, quick service, and I was helped immediately. The worker was friendly and walked me through a couple options, like choosing the dressing amount and whether I wanted the bowl tossed. Nice little touch of customization. I also noticed they were offering $5 off if you join their rewards program, so of course I signed up real quick at checkout, I love a good deal! The caramelized garlic steak bowl was a hit. It was a generous portion, fresh, and flavorful. I ended up sharing it with my husband when I dropped it off at his job, and it honestly filled us both up. Inside, the vibe is very chill and clean, perfect for a quick bite. They also have outdoor seating if you want to enjoy your meal outside, but this time we went with takeout. I love that they have fresh ingredients, good portion sizes, and quick, easy service. It's definitely a go-to when you want something healthier but still satisfying.

We started with Tony's Favorite Nachos which consist of steak, chicken, chorizo or pulled pork (we chose steak) sautéed onions, peppers, house made queso, pico de gallo, guacamole, and black beans on top of freshly fried tri-colored chips. The flavors were truly amazing and often places skimp on the 'stuff' and give you a million chips - Dawsons has the perfect proportion so if anything, you have 'stuff' after the chips are gone. We loved these nachos and were from Texas so that says a lot. We also tried the Firecracker Shrimp, which are shrimp tossed in house-made honey sriracha sauce. These were unlike anything I've had. They had a crispy crunchy exterior and the sauce was to die for - I would buy the sauce alone if I could! It had heat but not crazy heat and the flavor was superb. Our table had the Beef Stroganoff. I must say I am not a fan of beef stroganoff - but this actually was prepared very well and had a very good flavor which kind of surprised me! We also tried the TriColored Tortellini with Chicken which had chicken, mushrooms, peas, sun-dried tomatoes and pesto cream sauce. The flavors were amazing together and I could have eaten more of this as well! We also had the Blackened Chicken Quesadilla which was a Cheddar jalapeño tortilla filled with sautéed chicken, black beans, roasted corn, house tomato relish, roasted red peppers, spinach, Cheddar and Mozzarella cheese. It was served with sour cream and Dawson's Cajun ranch. Although this was on the appetizer menu, it was easily an entree. It was stuffed with the ingredients and very flavorful and filling. All of the ingredients blended together very well and offered a mouth full of flavor in every bite! Finally, we tried the Bayou Chicken Salad which comes with Blackened chicken on top of iceberg/romaine mix with black beans jalapenos, roasted corn, fresh guacamole, house tomato relish, Cheddar, and Mozzarella cheese. It's served with tri-colored chips and Dawson's Cajun ranch. I left the chips and corn off. This was a generous salad with superb flavors. The dressing was wonderful - a little heat and a lot of flavor. Again, this was very filling as well. There was nothing I could find 'wrong' with Dawsons. The service was friendly and prompt and the food was just extremely good. I wish I could transport this place back to Texas so I could eat there more often!

Service was a little sluggish when we went and food took on the longer side to come out but my parents who come here often said they're usually better. Food: Pulled Pork Nachos - The toppings are fairly sparse and the pulled pork is only just fine. It really needs something to amp the flavor up like more acidic tomatoes, a stronger pork rub, or punchier drizzle. 3/5 Fried brussels - For enjoyers of this vegetable, this is a good appetizer. They're lightly crispy and well seasoned with the sriracha honey glaze rounding out the bitter profile of brussels well. 4/5 We split a Whiskey Burger and Spicy Bacon Ranch Burger and honestly both were nothing special. The meat didn't stand out in any way. It wasn't particularly large, it wasn't smoked or seared specially, it just tasted like a regular patty. The toppings were fine but I wished there was thicker glaze or they gave you some aoili on the side because they were somewhat dry overall (not the patty itself but the entire burger) 3/5 The regular fries are good, I'm a fan of thicker cuts and these were still crispy. 4/5 The truffle parm fries were drenched in truffle oil which made them soggy and were way too over-powering 1/5 Overall I don't think I'll be back. The restaurant and food itself is fine but there are other places I like better that have either better prices, higher quality, punchier flavors, or more creativity. This place simply doesn't excel in any of these areas.

Everything is colorful, fresh, and delicious. Thank you so much @Yamallama for being incredible. I saw that you now sell your bowls at Dream Palace Cafe too and I hope to see Yamallama meal options at many more coffee shops, stores, and cafes around town. I'll buy one every time I see one!!! PS: I just saw that they closed their second location in The Garage Food Hall and opened one across the street from The Children's Museum instead, so visit there or this AMP location.

They have a few parking spots out front. They seem few and far between and there is a lot about a hundreds yards away that have quite a few more spots. I think a 4.5 star rating is more accurate for this restaurant. I decided to go with the 4 because it came close, but did not meet a 5. The menu is on the wall and they have some laminated paper menus if that is your flavor. They have pork chops, chicken, ribs and a wide assortment of sides such as mac and cheese, dressing and fried corn. They also have desserts that include cobblers and sweet potato pie. You place your order through a small tinted glass window, but it is difficult to hear because the music is banging. I liked the music personally, but it was a bit too loud. You pick your order up from a small window to the left of the one that you placed your order. I order a fried pork chop diner with stuffing and sweet potatoes. Like i said, they do not have dine-in, so I had to take it to-go. It was smelling so good that I could not make it and pulled over at a park and chowed down. The pork chops were delicious, as well as the sweet potatoes. The stuffing was ok, definitely not my fav. Since I was there and had no dinner plans, I ordered another meal for later. I got the fried chicken diner with the greens and cabbage mix and the potato salad. The entire dinner was delicious. Some of the best I have ever had. The chicken was perfectly seasoned fresh. The greens and cabbage mix.....wow......I should have gotten a tub of it. I am still thinking about it. The potato salad is mustard based and was packed with flavor. I did have to wait a very long time for my food, but I know that you can't rush perfection. I would highly recommend placing your order online (you won't have the loud music drowning you out) or call it in. Soul food is hard to come by, and good soul food is even harder. According to the movie starring Vanessa Williams, soul food cures all and brings a family together. I thought that was a myth until I ate the food here. This food could stop wars.

I was pleasantly shocked! You should definitely check this place out you won't be disappointed!!!
