    No dressing salad
    Michael B.

    I was exhausted traveling for work and have gone to McAlister's back in Houston numerous times so I felt like this was a good choice. Boy was I wrong First and foremost the staff that I interacted with was very friendly and nice. Order food at 653pm Received food around 725pm Crazy thing is I saw people order after me and still received food before me. The cashier even asked me if I was still waiting for food lol. I received my food and proceeded to hotel since I was exhausted. Sad to say I get to the hotel and begging to open food. No dressing for salad. Turkey crunch had NO CRUNCH (missing chips) If I wasn't so tired I would have gone back for a refund. To the young ladies holding the front of house down I appreciate how both of you were friendly. To the back of house. Please get it together. Follow recipes and ensure there is salad dressing with salads. I honestly won't be recommending this particular location. I won't return.

    I should have known it was gonna be bad when I waited for the girls to stop bickering about working before taking my order. Ordered Smokey pepper jack with Mayo instead of mustard. Waited 30 minutes for food even with just 4 others in restaurant who also waited a long time. Got my order, had mustard instead of Mayo. Heard the kitchen staff yell after girl told them to remake. Got new sandwich and was completely slathered in Mayo and had a spec of bacon. This was totally done on purpose. Had mgr come take a look and refund my meal as I could not trust anyone at that point. Extremely disappointed.

    The chips had been repackaged in a smaller bag. Looks like they took a normal small chip bag and split it up into two bags.

    The chips had been repackaged in a smaller bag. Looks like they took a normal small chip bag and split it up into two bags. About half as much as I used to get. With COVID still prevalent, I'm annoyed that the clips have been handled by the restaurant instead of just selling a factory sealed bag. The mac and cheese container was only about 1/3 full. Another clear cost cutting measure. The cookie was barely cooked at all. It was raw in the middle and was like chewing gum. I was charged $2.99 for the drink but when writing a review on DoorDash it shows that I should not have charged at all. See picture. ALSO, The toothpick in the sandwich was completely unnecessary and is a potential safety issue. When the sandwiches were delivered in a to-go container the toothpick helped hold the sandwich together but now that the sandwiches are only wrapped in paper (another cost cutting measure) the toothpick is not needed. The wrapping paper pushes the toothpick completely into the sandwich and it's not seen until the customer bites into it. Very disappointed... Their food used to be consistently good.

    My half sandwich had a strange, horrible; dirty taste. The single tomato was old and also the smashed tiny piece of avocado was old. The Turkey tasted spoiled, I was unable to eat it. My husband who eats anything could not finish his potato, it was that bad. His potato was dried out and old. Everything was dry, over cooked, old and had no favor. The Bathrooms were also very dirty. The staff was not rude, but were not friendly either. We could of went to a very nice restaurant for the prices we were charged for sandwiches !

    I only eat here because its less than a minute away from my apartment. If you want deli food, Jason's is where it's at.

    My daughter absolutely loves McAlister's! We miss the old drink kiosk with the multitude of drink options though.

    At some point they decided to change the menu. Went from one of my favorite places to "never coming back." Garbage.

    The staff is so rude. I will never go there again. They always get the order wrong. Food is mediocre. I'm leaving McAlister's in 2018.

    We found this cute little place on yelp, while driving from Texas on I10. It's a few miles into…read morethe city but well worth the drive. The atmosphere was great, there are many thank you cards, notes and letters on the walls for their contributions and community support. I think that is great. One of the owners Michelle took our order. She was very nice and offered suggestions. The service was great the food was excellent. My husband and I got the small rolls and it was just enough. Just what we needed while traveling. My hubby had the cold rolled basil cashew chicken which is #30 on their menu, fresh basil chicken, cashews, spicy Thai sauce, leaf lettuce, plum tomatoes and avocado. He gave it a 4 1/2, he said it was very good. He would definitely stop again. It was quiet and clean. I had the hot rolled turkey apple jack #39 on their menu, which is turkey breast, jack cheese, apple butter,bacon, mushrooms, onion, fresh basil Mayo, and with a side of spicy mustard. It was delicious!! It will be a great place to stop when are passing through again. I would recommend stopping.

    I love eating at Roly Poly. The staff is always friendly and the food is perfectly cooked and…read moredelicious. Thank you Matt and all who work there! Definitely will be back!
