This doesn't include the great service you will get. Take a short drive to Itasca (not far off IH35W and very close to Hillsboro) and visit The Olde Towne Country Store. You will be in for a treat that will you forget those fast food stops. We had some absolutely amazing sandwiches (enough for two meals) and spent way too much money on sweets, preserves, bread (we took home jalapeno bread - not hihomemade noodles, fresh vegetables (amazing flavored bell peppers and tomatoes), along with other cooking ingredients, and much more. They sell Key Lime Pie feeling in a squeeze bag. I wanted to turn that thing on end and squeeze into my mouth. Reminded me of the old I Love Lucy show.

The sandwich was LOADED with meat and toppings. Savory goodness with a hint of spice from the peppers, which by the way were perfectly marinated. For my side I got the bbq kettle chips which are always great, super crunchy and flavorful. Of course I got the ice tea, well because it's Mc Alister's ice tea. It's the BEST! My friend had the club, which was so big, she couldn't finish it all. Her sandwich was also loaded with meat and toppings. They seriously don't skimp on the food. Her side was potato salad. I was surprised what a generous portion they gave. It had quite a bit of paprika on top but it complimented the creamy potato salad perfectly. Yes, she also got the iced tea but hers was sweetened. In the age where everyone seems to be complaining about portion sizes, McAlisters did not let us down. I highly recommend that if you want a bang for your buck, you stop here for a sandwich and get the iced tea for Pete sake!

Normally, I don't consider people from St. Louis to be credible deli evaluators, but I was desperate and made the hour drive to Grapevine. We got there at 11:15 and the line was nearly to the door. Within 30 minutes, it was well out into the street. That was a promising sign. The sandwich menu covered the entire wall over the counter. Lots of non-New-York sandwiches like Cubans, gyros, etc, but over in the left corner were the classic Ruebens and pastramis. I went for the latter. A REAL NY deli usually has a few soups like split pea and chicken noodle and matzoh. No soups. Bummer. They had a half dozen sides - 3 kinds of potato salads and a few slaws. I went with the German potato salad. The drink option was spartan - they tossed a styrofoam cup at me and pointed to the soda fountain. The pastrami sandwich was OK for Texas. A SUPER pastrami sandwich on hard rye can get me moaning like Meg Ryan in "When Harry Met Sally" -- only I don't have to fake it. The German potato salad was watery and bland - I should have gone with the mustard potato salad. Turnaround was on the slow side. Napkins = paper towel roll on table. Flimsy plasticware. The overall vibe was affordable utilitarian. I'll give the sandwich a 4, everything else a 3. Next time I'll drive the extra half hour to Cindi's.

I asked her for a club sandwich just plain as it comes. She ended up getting me the gluten-free bread because the lady there said it was great and she's also gluten-free. I must say the bread is pretty good the usual sort of dry gluten-free but with the ingredients on the sandwich, it was pretty tasty. She also grabbed me some tomato basil soup, which was phenomenal. It had little chunks of maybe onion and tomato. Of course it was nice and warm and filled to the top. This place is right by my job so I will be ordering from here again. Probably not my girlfriend picking up. She works all over the place so you never know when she's in the area to do me a little favor. She is quite amazing. I must say.

They weren't busy and so I didn't feel like I had to rush. The only issue was the girl at the register. Idk what her issue was but I asked "do you guys just have turkey sandwich " which she just looked at me sideways and points at the menu. Then got annoyed because I "didn't see it ". It literally took me a minute to even see that it was under "classic subs". Like damn. My bad. Anywho. She the goes "is that what you want ?" With an attitude. Ma'am calm down. Then I told her my toppings and I asked if they could put pickles in it. When I got my sandwich it had no pickles. I had the pickle spear but I also wanted the diced pickles. I mean am I going to flip out about pickles? I mean I caaaaann since I freaking love pickles but I wasn't. The sandwich was good though. Can't complain much about that. It's the service that I had an issue with. They weren't very welcoming to begin with. The restaurant was clean though so I give them that.

Lots of tables to dine at and lots of parking available.

It was quiet inside and we were able to sit down immediately. It did take about seven minutes for someone to come and take our drink order and then a few extra minutes after that to take our food order even though we really wasn't that crowded. I think they were getting a lot of to go orders. I had the Rachel and it was very delicious, came with some chips. They don't serve fries here which was a little disappointing, but I do understand. We enjoyed our food and I'll definitely be back when I'm craving some pastrami or a Reuben.

But they only had it during the week, and with us working during the week and staying almost 30min. Away it wasn't doable. We ordered a lot of food as usual because we like to try everything overall between both places we paid about 95-ish dollars. The food and wait was worth it per usual, but the ATTITUDES at both places weren't, I let my bf order once I peeped, to avoid getting pissed off further. they can also practice safe food handling at the burger place.. I witnessed her wearing her gloves to write on the box, handle the food, touch cups to make drinks, walk to the other restaurant with the same gloves on and walk back, now while she didn't touch anything on the other side it's the principal.. At J's international when the food was ready, our name was called, and she let us look at the food to make sure it was right. The reason for the rating is because of the attitudes I didn't drive almost 30min. To feel like you don't want to work and be bothered today. Buttttt hey the music was a plus I was jammin for the most part!

There seemed to be very little teamwork among the staff. The young lady who was running food was also trying to refill the salad bar for customers, yet employees kept yelling, "Runner! Runner! Runner!" instead of stepping in to help her. Several team members appeared to have nothing to do, but no one offered assistance. Because she was being pulled in so many directions, the food sat longer than it should have and ended up getting cold. It was frustrating to watch because the situation could have easily been avoided if everyone had worked together. I hope management encourages more teamwork. When one employee is overwhelmed and others are available, helping each other out would create a much better experience for both the staff and the customers.
