"I had a very good food experience at McAlister’s Deli, where communication was excellent and customer service was outstanding. The environment was clean, and while I'm not entirely sure about their pet-friendly policy, it certainly felt welcoming. Regarding COVID-19 regulations, they seem to be in place, although it's somewhat hard to tell. Deciding what to have for lunch every day can be quite a hassle. You don’t want to overeat or undereat, as you'll need plenty of energy to finish off your day. The inviting aroma of the restaurant is definitely enticing, but sometimes you need more than just a whiff to get your appetite going. If you’ve been stuck in a lunch rut for the past three months, it’s time for a refreshing change! McAlister's offers delicious hand-crafted sandwiches and salads that you can easily grab when you walk in. It's an excellent spot to enjoy a meal, whether you choose it as your main course or a side. McAlister's Deli was founded by Don Newcomb, and it’s important to note their 'No Tipping' policy, which is a foundational aspect of their service. They aim to create an atmosphere where hospitality is naturally integrated into the dining experience. Since opening its first location in 1989, McAlister’s has become known for its tempting menu filled with delicious sandwiches, spuds, and salads, as well as their renowned McAlister’s Sweet Tea. If you're wondering what to order, some of the most popular items include the Chicken Tortilla Soup, Chili Lime Vinaigrette, Savannah Chopped Salad, Grilled Chicken Club Sandwich, French Dip, Smoky Pepper Jack Turkey, and Broccoli Cheddar Soup. For those in the know, McAlister's also offers a secret menu with standout items like the Peppers, Onions, and Beef sandwich, The Godfather (a roast beef sandwich with pizza sauce and provolone on a toasted baguette), and The Patriot (smoked turkey with Swiss cheese, tomato, mayonnaise, and orange cranberry sauce on wheat bread). Overall, McAlister's Deli is a great place to enjoy a satisfying meal in a pleasant environment!"
