    The dining table and napkin dispenser.

    I got grossed out when I saw all the dust on my table and napkin dispenser. This place needs a good cleaning. I got actual dust in my mouth from grabbing a napkin and it flew on my food and everything. Yuck

    I thought this was a sit-down service place but you order your food and then the staff will bring it to you. I had the BLT with avocado and a small cup of chicken tortilla soup. My friend had the salad with grilled chicken. There was way too much bacon and not enough lettuce and tomatoes; and barely any avocado - just one small slice. I tasted mostly bacon. Who doesn't love bacon, but really, too much on the sandwich. My soup had very little chicken. I expected strips of tortillas in the soup but it came with a side of tortilla chips. It was also pretty thick, a little too much flour. My friend's salad looked great. We did get our food pretty quickly, so we didn't linger.

    I really enjoy McAlisters and have never had an issue here. I always try to get something new, my favorite item being the veggie spud. I went with a cheese spud and veggie chili. Everything was wonderful, my friend had the club sandwich and it was hearty! McAlisters is right by my work so I like to grab a quick lunch. It's always fast and has healthy options. I recommend!

    After visiting Wilmington & trying this place, I'm disappointed that I hadn't ever been in my three years of living in town. You order at the counter and a server brings your meal to you. Everyone I met who worked there was very friendly and helpful. There are plenty of healthy and more indulgent options spanning from salad, sandwiches, soups, and a fan-favorite "spud" or baked potato. I found that my "pick two" of half salad and half spud was not only fresh and delicious, but also a good bit cheaper than something similar you would get at Panera. I love a simple salad and this place fulfilled that craving with a filling potato to complement it. I would totally go back when I'm near another McAlister's location.

    There's no match for McAllisters and other deli style food in the area (chain restaurants especially). The food taste fresher and the portion sizes are bigger. There's several different sides to chose from which also gives you lots of variety ( chips, soups, salads, potato salad, mac n cheese, etc). I typically get cravings for soups, salads, and sandwiches.. and this definitely satisfies it! The bread was delish and the staff had it out in a hurry! I love that you never leave this place feeling gross like most restaurants seem to do to me.. you know those straight meat sweats. This place also isn't crazy expensive and you don't feel cheated when you leave. BTW certain kids meals are 99 cents on Saturday's!!! Note that the sweet tea here is like SWEET SWEET. Sweet tea lovers beware!

    $9.38 for a cup of soup and tea, and I ordered a bowl with chips as my side, not the bread!

    See all

    The food was very good. The service was caring and concerned. The management was happy that we were happy. Everyone appeared to be happy.

    We've been here for 20 years and just started going to McAlisters. Pretty good deli food. Reasonable pricing. A good lunch spot.

    Food always good but when I saw the increase in prices I decided will be the last time. Crazy high , not worth it to me.

    They put barely any meat on the sandwich. Was not worth the price at all. The quality has gone down so much
