    The loaded baked potato was a nice surprise something we were not expecting big enough for 2 people to enjoy. It was nice to see salads also offered to round out the selection walking in we thought of just Sandwichs but got a nice surprise

    I feel sorry for the areas that do not have a McAlister's Deli. I have served this at family get togethers and everyone always loves it and is angry that they don't have one near them. Regardless of whether you have a sandwich, soup or other menu item they have great tasting food and an awesome menu! Although I am one for trying new items I do have my go to's. Usually from the Savory and Spicy Sandwiches options I just can not get enough of the Jalapeño Turkey Crunch, Roasted turkey, jalapeño chips, bacon, pepper jack, avocado and mayo on jalapeño roll. Includes a side and pickle spear. This is my absolute favorite. However I have had every Savory and Spicy Sandwiches option and they are all a 5 star. Can't go wrong. I will through in that my wife never gets anything other than the French Dip. She is addicted to it!

    I really enjoyed my lunch at McAlister's. Upon arrival, the cashier greeted us and was extremely attentive, friendly and helpful. The restaurant was very crowed, so I assume the food was delicious, and it was! I decided to order the McAlister's Club Wrap, which was delicious. It included Smoked turkey, Black Forest ham, bacon, sharp cheddar, Swiss, spring mix, tomato, mayo and McAlister's Honey Mustard on a wheat wrap. This wrap cost 8.99 plus tax. It was made well and tasted very healthy. I ordered a Potato Salad, which I enjoyed. I ordered a sweet tea, and it surprisingly was not too sweet. It was perfect! I would definitely eat at this restaurant again. It was healthy food for a decent price.

    Best crew ever Durbins in Palos hills are super and the food is always very good. I love going there!

    I really enjoyed the Mempian sandwich. It was delicious and was very filling. The sandwich came with angus roast beef, ham, Turkey, cheese, Mayo, spring mix and tomatoes. The bread was fresh and the sandwich was grilled. It also comes with your choice of a side for $8.59. I did not like the Mac and cheese. It didn't have much flavor. The chef salad was a big portion and also delicious for $8.79. The salad comes with bacon, ham, smoked Turkey, cheese, ranch, cucumbers, olives, spring mix, tomatoes and croutons.

    A real MidWest Foodie here. the food and service Grade A. First timer and will be returning. Olivia and Suzy (I hope I spelled their names right) But they were nice enough to reassure which soups were dairy and non-dairy bc I'm a bit lactose

    My order I couldn't get help for

    My review is based solely on the afternoon worker. I came in 2 people waiting for their food no problem there. I stood there for 20 minutes and watched this lady help every single person there except me and my order was already done and sitting on the counter. I actually had to ask the cashier if I could have her help and pointed to my order sitting on the counter and said I think that's my order. Can I have it please which she gave to me politely. The older lady just looked at me and didn't say a word..... how about I'm sorry

    The front, where to order.

    Had the New Yorker and was super impressed. It's not Katz or Perry's, but for the price you get a good sized sandwich.

    After driving by this place multiple times and being repeatedly enticed by the aromas, I finally…read morestopped in to give it a try. Ambience 4/5: This place is fairly new and has been well maintained since opening (it looks like it's been around for roughly six months). Walking in, the space is very bright thanks to large bay windows, but the natural light isn't harsh -- you don't feel like you're under a spotlight. The restaurant had a mild scent of cleaning products, which wasn't overpowering and didn't detract from the food smells; it just gave the impression that the surfaces are well-sanitized. The only downside is the parking situation. After reading other reviews, I can empathize with anyone trying to come during lunch or rush hour. There's not much the owners can do about it, but it's something to be mindful of. Food 5/5: I ordered the chicken wrap meal and it was excellent. It came with two wraps (about hotdog-sized but longer, roughly 8 inches), a side of fries, pickles, and a drink. The chicken was juicy, flavorful, and tasted like it came straight off the grill. The bread was soft and warm, and after checking their website, I learned it's made fresh, which definitely showed. The fries and pickles weren't anything extraordinary, but they were solid and paired well with the wraps. I saw another review comment on portion size, but as a 240-pound man, I felt completely satisfied with two wraps, fries, and a drink. When I return (which I will), I'm definitely trying the other meat options, as well as the veggie offerings -- especially the falafel, which is great news for my veggie-heavy wife. Service 4/5: I intentionally came after peak lunch hours (around 1:30 p.m.) to avoid the parking issues others mentioned. There were quite a few staff members present (~10 or so) as well as a gentleman who I believe was either the owner or the manager. At the time, I was one of only two parties in the restaurant. While the staff wasn't rude, I was a little surprised that neither the manager nor the employee who took my order greeted me or said thank you. It's a small thing, but noticeable. That said, the food came out quickly (about 10-15 minutes) and was hot and nicely prepared. Overall 4/5: I'm still a bit of a novice when it comes to Middle Eastern cuisine, but I know enough to appreciate the flavors and want to explore more. Nashmi, as a Jordanian food vendor, is shaping up to be one of my go-to spots when I'm craving these flavors. It hits the right notes and leaves me wanting to come back and try more.

    Was in the area and was craving shawarma. I saw a recent video of someone reviewing a bunch of…read moreshawarma spots in the area and decided to try their pick for number 1 for beef shawarma. It was pretty good, the best part was sitting in front of their fire oven they use to freshly bake their soft pillowy bread they use for their sandwiches. The bread was definitely the best part! Usually shawarma sandwhiches are in a wrap, but these are so much better. As far as the beef, it was good, not my favorite as far as flavor wise, but still pretty good. Fries were literally exactly like McDonald's which are the best. Glad to have tried this place for sure.

I ordered the Poblano Benedict, two poached eggs with chorizo, a little cilantro on top, all sitting on a roasted poblano pepper held together by an English muffin. From the very first bite the chipotle hollandaise sauce took the spot... wow. Creamy and smoky, just the right amount of heat. When the yolk mixed with the sauce, it took the whole thing to another level. Easily one of the best breakfast dishes I've had in a while.
