    Chicken tortilla soup
    Kristin C.

    I first went to a McAlister's down in North Carolina years ago and am happy that there's one nearby! I will add more photos next time I go but today it's so cold I just got soup. The staff is always friendly and ready to greet you as soon as you walk in. They have a great selection of sandwiches, salads, soup, and loaded baked potatoes. Their French Dip is one of the best I've ever had. My husband loves the smoky pepper jack turkey sandwich. There's plenty of seating (both booths and tables) and they also offer catering.

    I had the opportunity to try the veggie offerings at McAlister's Deli in North Olmsted, recently, and I can tell you that the dish is a far cry from the kind of sad veggie sandwiches of yesterday. I ordered the "Choose 2" including a half sandwich and soup, choosing, of course, The Veggie sandwich and the Veggie Chili. The Veggie Sandwich is served on a 9-grain bread, topped with spinach, tomato, cucumber, red onions, multi-colored peppers that they roast in-house, and avocado. The sandwich is usually served with herb mayo, which I chose to forego, and replaced instead with brown mustard. The bread was chewy, the veggies were crisp & fresh, and the avocado and mustard added a creamy element so that I didn't miss the mayo in the slightest. I chose the Veggie Chili as my other half of the "Choose 2" and it, too, was a solid plant-based offering. This bean-based chili is made with a vegetable base, pinto & kidney beans, and all of the spices and veggies you'd expect in a great chili. It was hearty, satisfying, and just what I was looking for to warm up a chilly day, no pun intended. Add to a great meal the fact that the service was truly exceptional, with two extraordinarily helpful team members that supported our visit, and I left full, happy, and with a satisfied plant-based heart and stomach. Heartfelt gratitude to the team at McAlister's Deli for helping me find plant-based offerings that are intentional, beautiful, flavorful, and nutritionally sound. Much appreciation to everyone at McAlister's for keeping their plant-based friends in mind.

    Baked potato and chili. Good food. Hot and tasty. Ordered it for pick up and it was ready right on time. The counter guy greeted me promptly, thanked me for coming. Restaurant is always clean.

    This is becoming our new go to for sandwiches and salads. Such a wide variety of items. Kids did not like the pizza and said the sauce was spicy.

    Truth in advertising?
    Rick W.

    I want to be clear, my lunch tasted great. The service was, likewise, excellent - the kids behind the counter were polite and couldn't have been nicer. For that reason, I'm giving 4 -stars. My only issue (aside from the dirty entryway) was the bait and switch advertising of the sandwiches. If you look at what is supposed to be the Jalapeno Turkey Crunch in their advertising, you'll see layer upon layer of chips - intended to provide flavor and CRUNCH. Instead, the sandwich I got had probably 3 chips per half and they were smashed between bacon and cheese and mayo so they stood no chance. not only could i not really taste anything resembling a jalapeno, there was almost nothing in terms of crunch either. I don't blame the workers. These kinds of decisions come down to the bean counters and management (store, regional, corp). That said, the sandwich tasted great. My wife also enjoyed her soup and salad. We'll be back, I'm sure, but will I ever really trust McAlister's to provide the sandwich I've seem in print.

    Potato soup and 1/2 Savannah Chopped salad w/cherry shallot dressing

    Husband had never been here and he does not like Panera. April and Jen are the nicest ladies kind courteous and friendly. Had the choose 2 with Potato soup and the Savannah chopped salad. Soul was hot and salad fresh with plenty of tasty toppings. Had the new passion berry ice tea (half&half with unsweetened tea) Hubby had the Italian w/side salad. Food came out fast and fresh. He even said he'd go there again!

    Joe's Deli has deli food but you don't have to take a number to get served…read more It has pretty much a full menu with burgers and steaks, etc. Don't forget to scan the desert counter upon entering. Breakdown: Hot pastrami on fresh ciabatta bread - best ever I had anywhere period. Tender and smoked, OMG, was it good with the brown mustard, and it was huge. Carrot cake - just the right amount of sweetness. Big portion. Excellent! Large parking lot to accommodate a large dining room. The place was packed mid day, mid week. Everyone working there is super friendly as well.

    2nd time here. Still like it. Place was packed. Our wait was about 20 mins. Not bad. Sat in the…read moremiddle of the room. Server was over pretty quick. We were aware of the large portions and decided to split everything. Ordered the German dumplings soup, corned beef on rye, and the battered onion rings. Soup came first. It was really good. Kinda like a deconstructed chicken paprikash without chicken but dumplings. It's thick. It was very good. I'd get it again. Corned beef is huge. Enough to easily split. Had to unhinge my jaw to get a bite. Moist, flavorful, tender, and generous. The onion rings are huge. Battered by hand and you get about 7. Come with 3 sauces. These are a good choice! Table next to us got 2 for their table of 8. Dessert is abundant. Unfortunately, we were full and couldn't eat any more. But the desserts are known and have a good reputation. Next time. Bill was about $42. We have left overs for tomorrow. It's good. I'd go back. Easy to find. Large room to accommodate a lot of people. Patio too but not in use. Prices about average. Generous portions. This is a repeat.
