    I have been here before, and it was nothing to write home about. Today was quite a pleasant experience. Our service was great. I tried their new pecan berry salad, and it was wonderful. This was a very clean establishment, as well.

    I had the half and half combo. I had the Cuban and chicken salad. It was excellent and I loved the meal.

    King club sandwich with yellow potato salad
    Daniel T.

    Visited McAlister's deli near 21st and yale. I had a great experience and the food was amazing! It's always a great sight to see a restaurant full of people. I ordered the king club with the potato salad. The club sandwich was nothing short of a king sized sandwich... at times I didn't know if my big mouth was big enough to take a full bite of this king club sandwich. The potato salad was the perfect texture and even though I prefer a white potato salad, but McAlister's Deli potato salad is the bomb!!! Check this place out and check out the pics!!! Cleanliness: 7/10 Service: 8/10 Size of my sandwich: 11/10

    Mushy not so fresh lettuce

    I used to live near this McAllister's so I visit often. I would have given it five stars or year ago, but my take-out order wasn't the best. I ordered the Savannah salad to go, but there was so much more lettuce and less everything else (cucumbers, cheese, etc) that it was not a very good. However, the chicken in the salad at McAllister's always taste so good! Also, there was a mushy lettuce pieces. I don't think it was very fresh. On a good note, the girl who checked me out was super friendly. And the food was ready as soon as I got there.

    It had been a while since I visited McAllister, and I was recently needing to find a fast place with healthy-ish choices. So, I decided McAllister could be a good option! I don't know if it's just been so long since I was here last or if I just didn't notice before, but the menu was bigger than I remember, which made me super happy. It did take me longer than I thought it would take me to order because of that (and I think I was kind of annoying the cashier with not being ready with my order) but there was just such a good amount to choose from... I ended up going with the savannah salad and was extremely pleased with it. It was a good amount of mixed greens at the bottom, blue cheese, honey almonds, and a generous amount of grilled chicken. There may have been some other things in there but I don't think I remember, and those things I mentioned were the standouts anyways. Maybe dried cranberries? The flavors worked together extremely well and I especially loved the sweetness that the honey almonds gave... even the bleu cheese had a nice honey sweetness to it, I thought at least. The dressing was a balsamic vinaigrette and came in a little cup on the side. I liked that they did that because it let you decide how much or little dressing you wanted. Sometimes I feel like places skimp you on the salad dressing, but I don't feel like they did here. It was maybe a bit thicker creamier than others. It was nice. That may have also helped make it go longer and not run out as fast. Because I was so pleasantly surprised by my salad, I'm sure I'll be coming back more often for that same salad again and to maybe try some other things too!

    I had to take a picture with a McAlisters girl! They are all so cute with their headbands on FREE TEA DAY!

What I forgot is that on weekends they roll out exclusive items like spring rolls, egg rolls, and puff pastries. They even had a special: buy 4, get 1 free. (Not pictured are the egg roll and puff pastry.) The puff pastry comes in either pork or chicken, I went with pork. It had quite a bit of onion, but the flavor was still really savory. The spring rolls were tasty too, though a little on the smaller side. The star of the visit, though, was the Saigon coffee. It's Vietnamese-style coffee made with espresso and sugar, and wow! It was STRONG. Highly recommend if you're a coffee lover. Service was great. The cashier was super sweet. Plus, when I came right at opening (11am on Saturday), it wasn't busy at all, which was a nice bonus.

The staff is friendly and so knowledgeable about the menu. They helped guide me on my choices and I was so pleased. I went for the famous tiger drink, choosing the matcha and while it initially tasted super sweet, after a few shakes, the drink evened out and it was perfect. I also ordered 3 homemade spring rolls ($2.50 each) and really enjoyed how fresh they were. The peanut sauce isn't creamy like I'm used to, but with the chili sauce on top, I was satisfied. Bread is made fresh each day, and, even each hour as I waited 15 minutes for a baguette (worth it!) Thrilled to have this location close and want to try one of every drink on the menu. If they add avocado smoothies to the mix, I may just go every day. Enjoy!

I was deciding between MisFits & another location so I texted a friend to make the final decision. Long story short, she chose MisFits & we met around 1pm. From what I've been recommended, my/our experience was pretty aligned with what I had heard. Random summer Thursday. Perfect for a good lunch. I was familiar with where MisFits was but never walked inside. Considering that other downtown locations either are on a one-way street, are in busier areas or have less parking availability, the location is relatively convenient. I parked right in front of the restaurant & entered an enamoring space. The entrance leads into a hallway with the host toward the end. Once past the "host hall," the interior is 80% modern, 20% retro. Filled with booths, clear lanes and a good mix of seating options. The lighting is perfectly balanced with large windows for natural light to be let in with other fixtures filling the gaps. We sat in the large "L" shaped booth & our server was with us almost immediately (there were only 2 other tables sat at the time). Of all the menus I've observed, MisFits may have the most efficient offerings ever. There's not tons of variety but it didn't feel limited either. Classic American Favorites, Only. While our server was wrapping up with the other 2 tables, I reluctantly decided on the 1/2 Sandwich (The Wifey) 1/2 Soup (Rotisserie Chicken Tortilla Soup) with Sweet Potato Fries while my friend ordered the B.B. Burger & normal fries. The food came out relatively quickly, less than 10mins after placing the order. The chicken sandwich was good but I was more surprised at how hearty & flavorful the soup was! It made me want to order a full order of nachos. My friend stated that her burger was good except the bacon was thicker & chewier than she would have liked (but she's picky). We conversed for another 20-30mins afterwards but I think we were both satisfied with our meals. Overall, I believe that MisFits has almost the perfect name: it's located downtown but still seems to be one of the more underrated restaurants in the district. If you want above-average American food & don't want to pay above average prices, this is the place to go. I'd be happy to revisit in the evening to see the full luminary experience.

The food quality was excellent, and the staff were warm, friendly, and welcoming from the moment we arrived. One of the most unique parts of the visit was learning that the person seated at the table next to us was the previous owner. She is still a regular customer, and her photo is proudly displayed on the wall in the restaurant. That says a lot about the history, loyalty, and character of this place. I also accidentally left my credit card behind and did not realize it until about an hour and a half later. I called the restaurant, and the management immediately helped resolve the issue. They kindly arranged to mail it to my home in Los Angeles, and I have now received it safely. That level of honesty and customer care is rare. A special thank you to the management for handling everything so professionally, and to Heather for her kindness, attentiveness, and outstanding service. Highly recommend this spot for great breakfast, quality food, welcoming atmosphere, and a team that truly cares about its customers.

I ordered the Hunter, which comes with Rabbi's Pastrami, Russian Dressing, Swiss Cheese, and Sauerkraut. Typically this comes on Rye bread, but they'd run out by the time I got there. The Housemade Club was a fine replacement though! This sandwich was so good. The sauerkraut was a 10/10 and the house cured pastrami was extremely flavorful and filling. The sandwich options come in both 6oz and 12oz. I personally think the 6oz was more than enough! Each order comes with a pickle and chips. I ate half of my sandwich right away (amazing) and then half a little later. The pastrami and saurkraut are so juicy that it did make an impact on the bottom piece of bread, BUT I still ate every bite and would still highly recommend. Just keep in mind that it is best when eating soon after you've gotten your food! Either way, you'll need some napkins close at hand.

    Kinda hard being a first visit. Went for brunch with daughter. It is exactly as others (Yelp,…read moreGoogle) have reviewed. It is strictly serve yourself. For us it took a bit to get use to even in the smallish area. It's arranged in a sort of circle -- staff and food in the middle and you walk around it, getting drinks, napkins, silverware, etc. The staff seemed nice enough, opposing other reviews. They gave us menus that we took to a table to look over. It was quite small. I didn't see pastry offerings, but it was our first visit. I want to see signs -- What it is & how much$. I hate it when grocery stores can't get their signage in line with their pricing. Honestly, I don't recall which sandwiches we ordered but we both had their house cured meat. She liked it, I didn't care for it. To me it was like Sunday beef roast on a sandwich. The little shopping area is really cute. We didn't have time that day to poke around. I hope this helps you navigate your visit. It's always a good idea to know what you're getting into. We'll go back, with better knowledge.
