My husband and always manage to find McCalisters for lunch wherever we go. This one in Mesquite is the best we've been to. Service is excellent, portions were a little bigger, and the food was very fresh. read more

Stopped in on our way back to Austin. We showed up around 5pm on Monday evening. They weren't too busy and we got our food quickly. Everything came out perfectly and tasted delicious! I'm so happy we were able to get in and out and back on the road. Definitely beats fast food any day! read more

Great sandwiches every time. My family and I have been there over a half dozen times and never had a bad meal. Service varies. Some kids help out and come by getting plates and refills. Sometimes when there are a few customers they open up a new register. Sometimes they seem put out to refill your drink. The place is never busy at dinner so it's nice to come in and get a good meal and sit with family or just watch ESPN. read more

Love, Love, Love this place. I am a recruiter for Avon, so I need a public casual place to meet clients. I used to go to Starbucks down the street, but SO LOUD and rarely a good seat. McAlister's is quiet and somewhat private at each seat - even with a large crowd. FREE WiFi. I love the staff coming to check on me every little bit! Food is yummy - yes a tad on the expensive side, but SO many choices and worth the price! read more

This was the first time I have visited this location. I usually go to the ones in McKinney and Plano. Those two are very similar in quality. I was a bit disappointed in the Mesquite. although it was clean and the servers were friendly, I thought the Cobb salad was very stingy on the grilled chicken. It was nothing major but enough of a difference that I felt like I would go elsewhere the next time I was visiting Mesquite at lunch time. read more

Today was my last time to go to the Mesquite store. Very poor management and it flows downhill. It's clear to me that no one wants to be there. And the food...I'd rather go to the Mesquite Jason's deli. read more

I've always loved McAlister's, and this location was no exception. From the second you walk in you're greeted by friendly staff and the smell of toasted sandwiches gets your appetite rolling. My melt (turkey) hit the spot as expected and the Mac n cheese was nice, creamy, and cheesy. Brought my laptop with the hope of doing some work on the free wifi, but either it was ridiculously slow or just didn't work at all which is why it gets docked a star. Other than that, delicious as always! read more

McAlister's Deli - Turkey melt w/mac n cheese - Delis Near Me - Mesquite, Texas

Great deli. Lunch on weekday was on the quiet side, but nice. The wife and I had lunch, got out for under $20. Food was of good quality, and ensuring was very tasty. I had the club sandwich and my wife got soup and half salad. We really liked this place. Will come again read more

Took forever to get my food a sandwich and soup nothing major. Then when it got there the sandwich and soup was cold. I understand understaffed I don't understand cold. Start calling numbers and we can pick up our on food instead of waiting on people to bring it. read more

McAlister's is always amazing. You could never go wrong here, and the Mesquite location is probably my favorite one!

Best fresh sandwich and soup combo ever. Always delicious and fresh. Every time I come here its a treat. read more

McAlister's Deli - Southwest Turkey Melt and broccoli cheddar soup - Delis Near Me - Mesquite, Texas

I ordered a Rueben, and I wasn't impressed. It was $8.99 and the side I ordered that came with it was a very small dollop of potato salad. The bread had hardly any flavor, and usually the strong flavor of the rye bread balances the sweetness of the dressing, but without this flavor the dressing was sickly sweet. The sandwich had tons of meat that had mediocre flavor and not near enough sauerkraut to balance it out or give it any crunch. You could hardly see the sauerkraut, and the bread wasn't toasted well. I usually like to stick around $6-7 dollars for lunch, and paid extra to try this place out and was not impressed not enthused that I spent $10 on a sandwich with a tiny side. They had some great looking cookies but I didn't feel like spending any more money. I won't be coming back. Jason's Deli has WAY more flavor, and worthy prices. read more

This McAlister's is so hit and miss it's ridiculous. Almost every single time I get something to go I've been served ice cold soup and sides and of i change the sauce on a sandwich and you will be lucky if they don't just serve up a dry ass sandwich management gotta get ahold of the kitchen bc it's becoming way to often. read more

Nice little deli. I love club sandwiches and they never let me down. Soup is always great to. And they serve good unsweet tea without that funky coffee aftertaste. read more

This was my first time ever going to a McAlisters and I really liked it. The people were very nice and helpful but it did take a while to bring our food out and it was just one sandwich and a bowl of soup. It also took a while to clean up the tables, there were tables with dishes and trash on them waiting to be cleaned up. I'm giving this 4 stars for customer service and the good food. read more

I was not impressed at all. I guess the McAlister's Deli in Jackson, MS have spoiled me because my usual Savannah chopped salad was super skimpy. Then to put the dressing inside the salad container threw me. I reckon they do things differently at this location but every other location I've visited aren't stingy with the salad toppings. The sweet tea to my surprise wasn't nothing to stand on top of a mountain about either. Maybe it was because I visited after the lunch rush. read more

McAlister's Deli - Delis Near Me - Mesquite, Texas

two stars, yes I HAVE experienced better, much better. I am not comparing this place to a gourmet restaurant or even a gourmet deli. WHY because they are not one, to me the food here is sub standard. I have been here twice. Once I ORDERD the baked potato .. not very good at all. Second time I ORDERD one of the sandwiches -- I really had a hard time eating it as it really was subpar.. I HAVE had better food at fast food burger places to be honest. THE food is my only complaint. I really would have to be forced to eat at any of this companies restaurants .. the fruit also did not taste fresh... To the employees I am not aiming this at you I am sure that you are doing the best that you can. read more

This is probably one of my favorite places to go for lunch. It's nearby everything like the mall and other restaurants. I love the vibe here, but this isn't a fancy place. Very causal and it's like a sandwich deli. I would say similar to Panera bread, but cheaper. The only thing I pretty much get is the harvest chicken salad sandwich. It comes with a side and pickle. I love how is comes with a croissant bun. They are known for there delicious sweet tea. And I personally like it with lemon. They have other kinds of teas like peach and lemonade tea. When it's cold I like to get there country potato or broccoli cheddar soup. They also are known for spuds, they come in a huge portion size. It's definitely worth trying if you like spuds. I also like there spicy southwest chicken sandwich. It has corn and avocado in it and there bread on this sandwich really good! If you craving sandwich or a spud this is an affordable great place to go! read more

We got McAlister's Togo for dinner tonight. Sweet tea was good, pasta salad was basic, and my Spicy Southwest Chicken Griller was ehhh. For an almost $8 sandwich you would think that there would actually be some what of something in it. Nope. The guacamole was barely a thin line, like it just looked like green food color was put on the bread. I added black olives and jalapenos(I am a big spice person) and was disappointed to only see 3 jalapenos on my entire sandwich, and 5 small back olives. Again, this is a $8 "Griller" or whatever. Also, if you like spice like me, don't get this sandwich. There was no spice. AT. ALL. I dipped it in ranch so there was some flavor with the mostly-bread-griller and only ate half of the sandwich. The rest went in the trash. I stick with Jason Deli next time. read more

Very good chance we will not be coming back. Poor service and poor quality good. We had sandwiches and a wrap , both were bland and with absolutely nothing special about it. I could've saved my money and made better tasting sandwiches at home. read more

Waited 25 minutes for a hot sandwich. The plates of food that were ready to be served sat up in the window so long that when the rueben arrived, it was not hot but well passed room temp. This is the third and last time. Farewell. read more

I like this place. Every time I have come, great service and great food. Broccoli cheese soup is delish and HUGE cups of tea.

The worst experience ive ever had here. The management should all be fired. Terrible!!! Messed both our orders after having to correct the person behind the counter three times. Experience is so bad ill never come back read more

I have tried your spuds twice and twice I have been disappointed. They are not hard to make and fix up but somehow you manage to do a great job at messing them up. I work not even 10 minutes away and when I get to work my spud is not only cold but dry too. Today I had a spud with chili and it was bad. How bad? Everyone in the office was laughing at my spud. It had a trickle of cheese and maybe a teaspoon of chili, NO LIE, oh and that's with me paying $1 more for extra chili. I took it back I was asked "would you like a side of chili" NO, please remake my order correctly. Why is it that I have to make 2 trips to get 1 order correct? I will continue using you as my go to place for soups and sandwiches but that's it. You killed my vibe for spuds. read more

Every time we come here I'm disappointed. It all started with them charging for the cookies when before they can free with your meal. Everyone we order the food is bland and boring. The combinations on the menu don't go well together. The staff is unfriendly and lack basic service skills. read more

Solid sandwich, and salad combo! I got the choose 2 deal. The Chicken Ceasar Salad was good, and the Sante Fe Chicken Sandwich was ok. The customer service started off a little shaky, but pleasantly took a change for the better. I will return a salad, maybe a sandwich. read more

Really good sandwiches. The tea is awesome. Hard to get consistently good iced tea at restaurants but they nail it. Always good service. A little expensive but not outrageous. Get a cookie. They are worth it. Join the club with the app and get points for free tea. read more

I will start off by saying that they do have some of the best sweet tea I have ever tasted. But that is the only reason I would ever go back. I ordered the half sandwich/soup combo. Both the sandwich and soup were very small. My sandwich was the turkey club. I asked them to spread mustard on it. I did not ask them to soak both pieces of bread in the mustard. I took two bites, could not finish it. I can not comment on the soup because I was so disgusted with my sandwich i lost my appetite. I was given a free cookie with my meal, and never one to let a chocolate chip cookie to go to waste, I took a bite of that. How do you mess up a chocolate chip cookie?! It was big, but way too thin and too crunchy. That might be the first time I have never finished a cookie! A waste of 10 bucks, when all I liked was the tea. I will stick to Jason's Deli down the street. McAlister's just did not do it for me. read more

Get the Reuben, it's amazing. The soups are ok, but Panara's are better.

I was sad that they closed the one in Garland. It's a great sandwich and the service is great. They have a great food selection and the atmosphere is great. Best sub shop around!!!!!! read more

I got the king club it was really good! Also the Sweet Tea was pretty good not as good as BJs tbh but better than other places! Overall a great quick eat. Btw the Cookie was kinda hard. read more

I've always liked McAlisters, but this was our first experience with this location. I've been home sick for a couple days and finally to a point that I could eat some real food, besides the club crackers, apple sauce, and pedialyte I've been surviving on for two days. I was craving broccoli cheddar soup, and since this location is the easiest for my husband to pick up on the way home, we decided to try this one out. Here's the total order: 1 Tea (half sweet half unsweet) 1 bowl of broccoli cheddar soup 1 spud max I placed the order online, and he swung by to pick it up. When he got home, we realized they hadn't given him the tea at all, and the spud max didn't have any of the "meat" toppings - missing bacon, ham, and turkey. The broccoli cheddar soup tasted fine (granted I haven't had anything with flavor in nearly 72 hours) but it was very runny/watery and not the texture I was expecting from my many experiences with Panera, McAlisters and the like. Overall - what we got was fine, but several items were withheld, and the quality overall was subpar. Update: I've changed my review from 2 to 4 stars, after McAlisters marketing manager reached out to me. While things like this happen in the restaurant industry, knowing that they are inclined to create customer satisfaction deserves a better review. read more

This place is great. The food is always excellent and the staff is always helpful. I had an issue and sent a complaint online because of my order being wrong on a To-go order. I came in and the manager over heard me telling the employee about it and immediately took care of the issue. Talk about great customer service!!!! This is the kind of place that will continue to get my business!!! read more

Food was cold. Service slow. Restaurant was empty so there was no excuse. My son asked them to please put his plate in the microwave because it was cold. Blank stare and total apathy. I was here several times when this location was independently owned and it was much different. Too bad it was purchased by "corporate" because when owner was on site, it used to be a pretty decent place to eat. read more

Best deli ever. Somewhat friendly staff and nice service.The food was delicious and served to us minutes within placing our order. I had an good experience here. read more

I placed an order online. When I went to pick it up I was ignored for 10 minutes before an employee bothered to offer any help. After they took my money I waited another 15 minutes before the employee realized that my order had been sitting out since before I had arrived. Cold food. Late back to work. Unhappy. read more

I had a very nice experience here. The King Club and macaroni and cheese were delicious and served quickly. All of the staff were friendly. Many healthy options on the menu. Highly recommended! read more

I love McAlister's Deli! Service is always very attentive and personable, and the place is always very clean. We often stop there for lunch and to use their free wi-fi while out shopping in Mesquite. Keep in mind, their prices are a bit high but worth it to me for a healthier option when dining out. Great food in a great location. (Worlds better than Jason's Deli down the street.) read more

They're was a Christian guy who owned it before and he played Christian music... but they changed and are more corporate now. there kinda high on there prices and the food isn't all that great. all the old good workers are now gone. read more
