I love this place. The kids meals were very big and only 1.99 for dine in. I got a kids meal and it was good enough for me. The employees are very nice. Overall this was great place to eat lunch or dinner. read more

Sweet tea is always great, the club sandwich never disappoints, the Reuben is almost always good (except when the bread gets soggy), but the highlight is the carrot cake. Never had better! read more

I agree with Dee's previous review in that there is a wide variety of sandwiches, salads & soups. I got the build your own sandwich. The roasted turkey was extremely salty! It was like they put 2 tons of salt on it! I couldn't even taste the bread. The diced cucumbers were cute, but not for me. I like them sliced like at Jimmy John's. Fast service. But the price wasn't soo good. For about $6.00 you can get a near foot long sandwich. It looked like a half a sandwich to me. Very clean & nice ambience & decor. But, food flavor & taste trumps decor & ambience in my book. read more

How hard is it to salt a potato or to salt the water it cooks in? It must be very hard because McAlister's potatoes are the blandest potatoes I've ever had - and that was with chili and cheese. The only flavor was the jalapeno and I'm not big on spicy food. Speaking of chili - we ordered both a meat and veg chili potato and both were extremely lacking in chili. About half a cup on each monster spud. You'd save money and have a better meal at Wendy's. read more

Amazing! What a great place! I've never been here before. I've heard that they have the best Tea, although I am not a tea drinker. However, their sandwich was delicious and filling!!! I am a fan, for sure I will be back!!!! read more

I had their Spicy South West Chicken Griller sandwich, which was smaller than I expected, but delicious. Their "famous" McAlister's iced wasn't all that spectacular - just a step above lipton sweetened iced tea. read more

If you are in the mood for a sandwich or a soup and sandwich this is one of those places. It is one of my wife's favorite places but I would rather be eating a steak. The muffuletta and the New Yorker are my favorites when she wants to come. Both have good flavor and are very filling. read more

I have had many great bowls of Mac and cheese from macalisters in my day... I had a particular bowl of cheese from this McAlister's that was really bad, bland, soggy, and downright tasteless. Upon returning the bowl of Mac ( simply requesting another bowl of more fresh Mac and cheese after I'd taken only one bite) I overheard the kitchen staff tell the front desk girl to relay to me, and I quote "put some salt and pepper on it"... I was stunned, and I think the front desk girl was also, the whole time she was great but she seemed completely ashamed to have to come back and repeat what she'd been told to tell me. read more

I like good coleslaw. McAlister's has good coleslaw. Therefore by the transitive property i like McAlister's.

Best tea anywhere. Can see why owners moved from Olathe to Manhattan. This place is hopping in Manhattan, never saw it that busy in Olathe, even during peak times. read more

Pretty good. I usually order the Chicken and Dumplings and Mac and Cheese as sides. The sweet tea is fantastic and the punch cards are cool because you can earn free tea. The military discount is 10%, which brings the prices down to a normal range. read more

You go up to a counter and order, they give you a number and bring your food to you. I ordered the French dip with Mac n cheese and the French dip had cheese on it, which is not normal, but fine. The mac n cheese tasted like Kraft. I got a chocolate chip cookie after and that was pretty standard. read more

I take my family here nearly every Sunday after church. Best. Deli. Restaurant. EVER. Kids meals are only 99 cents. GREAT for picky eaters so you're not out $5+ if your kid doesn't wanna friggin' eat. their ultimate nachos are the bomb diggity. read more

I placed an order online and was given a confirmation number, I then warmed up my vehicle and drove 20 minutes across town to pick the order up at the time instructed only to find out they had posted a sign on their door saying due to weather conditions they had closed early. How can a business allow an online order to not only charge someone's debit card but then give a confirmation order and a time to pick the order up if they are closed. This incident wasted 40 minutes of my time and caused me to make a trip in the snow for nothing and charged my debit card. If you close for the day then make sure no online orders can be submitted for that store. read more

This is probably the best sandwich shop in Manhatten. It is better than most of the greasy food here, such as Chick-Fil-A. The only reason I gave 4 stars was the lines, every time I come the lines practically start at the door. You can probably blame that on how good the food is. read more

The food was great as always, but the service was spectacular. I left a fairly expensive golf jacket on my chair. and did not realize it until I was back in KC. I called them they had it and said that they would ship it to me. Not only did they ship it to me they had to me the next day. this is beyond good customer service Stan Olathe KS read more

The food is always fantastic!!! Service is pretty good. I find that when it's super crowded I get the best service. I have gone in and been the only customer and had trouble even getting a napkin. They are fast at lunch and always refill your drink pretty quick. One of my favorites in Manhattan. read more

Love the place, I guess! But why the what is it when I order a choose 2, they automatically think that when I'm thinking healthy I need a 32oz jumbo soda! Wth! This makes no sense! & when I said I wanted a small, instead of correcting it she said I will need to say that next time! Wth again! I didn't do a mc Donald's or a gas station to eat!!!!!! Bullshit! & then no one has any protocol as to ask if I was military in a military town for the discount! Once I mentioned that also she shrugged it off! Lack of maturity w their college staff & under management! Also every time I go it is inconsistent! Different plates & different portions! I don't like knowing that I don't know what im getting! Wth again! read more

Had the Rueben sandwich was excellent, very fresh and tasty

my daughter 4 yr old n neice 10 yr old loves this place one of their faves to eat at. good price n big portions.. kids menu is awesom .. i always take them here when we have a girls day out... read more

I hadn't eaten here in years, so went with a group from work, who frequent the place several times a week! The food was excellent, but the service not so much. We all ordered at the same time. My friends received their orders in a pretty timely manner, but I waited 20+ minutes for mine. We asked 3 different wait staff for help, and no one ever came back! I lodged a complaint with the one who finally came back and brought me a to go box as we had to rush back to work. Not sure I will waste my lunch hour there again as I don't like to be late getting back to work. read more

Decent sandwiches, not great but decent. For the price it isn't worth it. Sometimes the tea is really good but when it's not good it's really a bummer to spend that much. read more

Just a heads up that the Manhattan,KS McCallister's deli no longer offers sandwich trays at the price posted on their menu/website. Everything now has to be priced per person - although there is nothing on their website or menu that indicates this. I had used them for the past few years for a quarterly lunch meeting that I host. I am never sure of the exact number of folks who will be attending so the sandwich trays were perfect. I come in from out town so their delivery service was also nice. I tried to order a tray yesterday and was told I needed to give them the number of folks we would be feeding. I explained that I just wanted the large sandwich tray - like I ordered several times in the past. They finally agreed but the cost was about $60 more than in the past - because the priced it based on the number of people - not the published price of the tray. I cancelled the order and quickly called Mr. Goodcents - who honors the prices they show on their website and also delivers. Very disappointing and frustrating. I would be careful when ordering since the apparently do not show accurate pricing on their menu. read more
