It was okay. Of course I wasn't expecting great service because it is a McAllister after all but they took a while to bring my food out -_- I placed my order around 3:20 didn't get it until 3:40. The store was pretty empty, just one other family besides me and the cashier had a little bit of an attitude:/. The food was alright though ! read more

Ordered the club and two soups to do with a half sweet half lemonade to go, very clearly says McAlester's club on the receipt, ONLY TO GET A ROAST BEEF!! Not sure what happened here, but this constantly happens at this location read more

McAlister's Deli - Sandwich in question. - Salad Near Me - Odessa, Texas

Got here, line to be expected.... (15 min). Ordered French dip 6" with a soup and tea. Sat watching all the tables of 3-5 that were behind me get their food some even ate and had left. 30 min later I walk up to see my cold food in the window just chilling. It's hard to eat chicken and dumplings cold but I'm not waiting another 30 min buyer beware! Especially for 20 bucks for 1 person. read more

Same ol same ol... Thought perhaps it would be different from last time but lo and behold it wasn't. Big Promo advertising on the Cuban. My mistake. Not a hot sammy but something that was sitting out on the dash while working. Chips were good though. Pork on the sandwich was tender with little flavor and the ham was good. Not sure what the issue is with Odessa water so they did not have Dr. Pepper or any other soft drink. Service was slower than expected but I guess a slow cook in the hot water took longer than expected to heat the pork a little bit. Not impressed so IMO. Better off at Firehouse or Jersey Mike's read more

The older man at the counter was really nice and helpful... HOWEVER the entire rest of the staff was the opposite. Didn't wanna be there. Had a staff meeting while we were waiting on food. Food cold by the time we got it. Spud was dry small and not made correctly. Maybe if the cooks would take off their sunglasses while working they could read what they are suppose to be making.... AWFUL AWFUL AWFUL..... there is definitely a reason they only brought in 25k last week... heard that during the staff meeting we didn't request to be apart of... read more

Well. Contrary to my previous review today was exceptional. MICHELLE made my day. She was friendly and helpful and very courteous with a nice smile on her face. I explained to her the last time we were there how awful the service was and how dirty the tables were. Today was different. Tables were clean and everything was spotless. I picked up food to go, and Michelle brought it to my table and wished me well and thank you for coming in again. I will go back. I left one picture showing some age of the booths, but that's understandable. Just simply a little freshening up would do the store wonders read more

Was at the bank next door and quickly decided we wanted something to go pulled up at drive thru asked if I could place a to go order and it immediately pissed the lady off. She said what? What do you want?? Had the most terrible attitude and I said are you going to remember it all? Because she had no pen or paper and it was going to be a large order and then she proceeded to say "do you think I'm stupid or something??" Get the people that don't want to work in the back making sandwiches, not up front in the customer service area!!!!!!!!!! read more

Visited on a Friday night of all times with family on what appears as a slow time. Upon entering there is about only 3 people working the restaurant and there are tables dirty everywhere throughout the restaurant. It took about 5 minutes for anyone to take our order in which was already a red flag! After taking our order it took about 30 minutes to receive our food, and the place wasn't even busy on a Friday night around 6:30pm! I ordered the McAlisters club choose two with chicken tortilla soup, barely any tortilla chips on my plate to compliment my soup and as for the sandwich included tomatoes and honey mustard both of which I requested they remove. Already 30 minutes invested there I decided to keep the plate and remove the tomatoes myself and tough out the honey mustard on my sandwich. I went to get a sweet tea refill and the girl up front took about 5 minutes to acknowledge me was busy cleaning a spill by the tea dispensers than to refill my cup and appeared to not want to be there at all. Overall, this place really went downhill fast really tarnished what McAlisters Deli used to represent mind you I am not from Odessa anymore however it went downhill fast. I'll stick to San Antonio McAlister Deli if I am ever hankering this deli. read more

Horrible customer service. The manager was just in a terrible mood and I didn't feel welcomed.

I ordered two basic items! 2! Two!! Nothing complex. A bowl, not a cup, of Country potato soup (No chives) & a baked potato spud for my daughter. She loved her spud this time. (FYI, it comes with butter & sour cream ONLY) For the soup-I received a bowl size cup, half full with NO toppings at all. No cheese & no bacon. Very disappointed because it was a To-Go order! Two stars ONLY because what we got, actually tasted good OR we were just starving. **Note: ABSOLUTELY No bites had been taken from bowl** read more

McAlister's Deli - Half "bowl" of Country Potato Soup - Salad Near Me - Odessa, Texas

have waited over an hour on a takeout order. they do not care about anything. Would not come back here if I had to.

I absolutely love McAlister's Deli! The selection is great and everything is so good! I usually get salad and sandwich or soup and salad. They also have delicious baked potatoes, but they are too heavy for me for lunch. The lemonade and lemonade/tea is so good!! The bonus to this particular restaurant is that the staff was very friendly. I felt I got more service here than at a "regular " sit down restaurant. My food was delivered to my table fairly quickly. My table was pre bussed, which is a lost art in restaurants!! They also have larger containers of dressing, which made me happy. I love the sherry shallot dressing. Meal and drink were around $10 and worth every penny! read more

Great place with Salad, sandwich, soup, AND baked potato options. Party of 5 and everyone had something they liked (including a side of fruit!). Just driving through and spending the night in Odessa on our trip, and found this place ... recommend it! read more

No indoor seating. Always very short staffed even before covid. Long wait times when indoor dining was available over 3 years ago.

I had a large order for my office and Door Dash forgot to pickup the order. He only picked up and delivered the drinks. They called me and told me to send the driver back to the store. He finally delivered my order and one of my sandwiches was left off so I called and the Manager delivered the sandwich to my business herself. That's what I call service!!! read more

Great food, but they move like snails. Don't recommend this place if you're in a hurry.

I personally like McCallisters and this one is equally as good as the others. Good sweet tea. I had a half salad and baked potato. Great as always. A yr later and still good. read more

Feeling like breakfast and lunch was catching up to me at the waiting at discount tires for four hours decided to walk over to McCalister's never been in the last 15 years and I understand why not I ended up getting a turkey avocado crunch also and chicken and dumpling with a sweet tea pay $20 tip for dollars after looking at my order seen it was an amazing adult kid meal never will order again the tea was was tea with sugar and water not anything to crave are jump for joy about ended up pouring it out and getting water with ice to wash the nastcalister out my mouth sorry for not being a fan but not sorry about this review check out my tic toc and see my video GChinngent read more

Food is good although a little pricey. Atmosphere is OK BUT Overall is a great place to go for something different than the norm.

I arrived at 513pm and was the only customer in the restaurant. That should be telling. Someone greeted me after 2-3 minutes and said "give me a minute" then returned 3-4 minutes later. I ordered a salad to go and a "colossal carrot cake". When I opened the bag was shocked to see they gave me the short shirt almost a carrot cake. Worse yet, the sticker said to "discard 12-11" and today is a couple days past. I returned to the drive through window and waited for 15 minutes at the window and several people walked past but no one came to the window. I had time to survey on the website, file a complaint with health department, watch videos, check in fir my flight...I'm still waiting lol. Been at the window now for 23 minutes. No joke. Go to Jason's deli. -at minute 27, the manager (Ashley) couldn't Even Process the refund as the person who took the order had clocked out. So very suspicious. To the manager's credit, she is super nice. She just needs better staff and perhaps training how to offer refunds. read more

Waited in the drive through for thirty minutes for an order I placed over an hour prior. Forgot this is why we don't eat here anymore. Will not be coming back. read more

I understand they're working short staffed, but I've been sitting waiting for a soup and salad with the food in the window for 25 minutes while the cashier continues take orders. I usually love this McAlister's, but this is not what I've come to expect. read more

This was our first time here. The food was very good... Sandwiches, salads, soups, and even nachos! Well, ok, the nachos were just so-so. What really impressed me was the friendliness and courtesy of the three servers/cashiers that assisted us. They were quite busy, yet patiently helped us with our order. The second young lady was especially efficient and quick in addressing our requests. Thank you! read more

Waited 40 minutes to get my food. Might have just went down to pick up my order of half a salad and half a spud

I am surprised this location is still open. We really want to like it, since it is in our neighborhood, but every single time we order anything we get disappointed. The quality of the food is not good anymore, even the teas are always watery. The waiting for both inside and curbside is also ridiculous. We really love Mcallisters, so we hope management can make adjustments about these issues. read more

Usually it takes about 10-20 minutes to get your food but I had to wait an hour and a half.thier excuse were they were understaffed but they had 5 people in the kitchen that I saw. read more

For the 9 years that I've lived in Odessa, I've loved McAlister's. One of my kids even worked at the one on 191 last summer. Back then, everyone was friendly and there wasn't a dirty table in sight and the floors were always clean. Today, we stopped in to place a to go order at 3:33 pm. The restaurant was nearly empty, but there were 4 people ahead of us in line and 2 families behind us. One person working the register up front and one working the drive through (which was 5 cars deep). The young lady behind the register up front seemed not to be thrilled to be there. The floors were disgusting and well over half the tables were dirty. There was a man walking around filling the napkin dispensers on the tables, completely overlooking the fact that the tables needed to be cleared and cleaned. So sad that this place has gone downhill so bad in the short time that it's been open. Managers, sit up and take notice that your restaurant looks horrible!! I'm almost embarrassed for you all! Makes me wonder what your homes look like if this is how little you care about the place that provides your living. PS We had to finally ask about our to go order after 4:00 pm. read more

McAlister is always great. The line at this restaurant tends to be pretty long, but it moves quickly. This location is always a good lunch spot. read more

Service is great.....shift managers patrol the dining area to make sure everyone is good and happy with the service. I enjoy the menu.....wide variety with soup choices also. Lines get long at lunch time.....but the crews try to push everyone through as quick as they can. Calling in your order and having a separate area for parking makes lunch time management a little easier. I appreciate the service after the sell....thanks for continuing to take care of the customer until they are walking out the door.....I will keep coming back. read more

The worst McAlister's I've ever been to was told 15-20 mins waited for 45 minutes to be told they were out of the bread bowls I had already ordered. The staff was more concerned ab getting off work then assisting me when I was inside. ! read more

Hands down the worst costumer service I've ever gone through. DO NOT GO HERE! It really makes no sense how they are so disorganized read more

I'm really disappointed in the salad I just got through the drive through at the Odessa located off of 191. I had gotten the Chef salad and the majority of the lettuce was old and had brown spots on it. They usually have really great salads. I called twice to let them know but no one answered the phone. I'm not one to complain but this was super disappointing. read more

Normally McAllister's has amazing service and food. Today apparently is that exception. I ordered a chef salad to go with oil and vinegar for the dressing. I was given about a tablespoon worth of each for a rather large salad. The chef salad is supposed to have bacon and croutons on it, neither of which I was given. I love McAllister's but y'all need to get it together. read more

Every time I go there I have problems. There is young kids playing around and they are employees, always take forever even if I order online. WORST PLACE read more

I have been a McAlister's Deli customer since they opened the first location in Odessa Texas. How excited I was when they opened the East Location on Hwy 191 within minutes from my home!! Unfortunately, on Wednesday night I ordered a 2 for- pecan berry salad and grilled chicken sandwich, 45 minutes after I ate, I began having severe nausea, abdominal cramping, cold sweats, and weakness. I ended up having diarrhea all night. I called my doctor in the morning and was immediately seen by doctor. My normal low blood pressure was elevate, and my pulse was very low. He took labs, and infused a large bag of glucose along with anti nausea medications. The food poisoning caused my lab results to get all screwed up, and now I'm having to have additional tests to rule out any damage to organs. Needless to say, it has been an expensive nightmare. No more McAlisters for this lady! read more

After a long ten hour drive, my mom and I were eager for a quick and easy bite to eat. I ordered online, and was told that my order would be ready for pick up in twenty minutes. When I arrived to the restaurant at the designated time, my order was nowhere near ready. I waited another 20 minutes for two soups and half salads. It took forty minutes for these four simple items. While I waited, I witnessed one employee strolling around the restaurant, eating chips while delivering food to the patrons. Seems pretty unsanitary to me. After waiting all this time, I was informed that they were out of the soup I had ordered. Needless to say, it was a slow and seemingly incompetent experience. read more

This is a good no great place for fast and healthy food that is amazing and definitely deserves 5 stars
