This McAlister's is fine, but it needs some decor updates, and the ambivalence of the register staff reflects their own excitement about working there. Some are friendly, some are ditzy- that's what you get with a young group of people. I ordered the deluxe nachos for my son, but she mistakenly entered the kids' "nachos", which is rotel and tortilla chips with some Teddy Grahams. Carbs, carbs, and fat. My daughter said her cheese sandwich was passable, but threw away half of the bread. I love the vegetarian chili, but think it's probably the same at every store. Nothing special, nothing terrible. The restroom was clean.

It is ok here it's a convenient location and the new big TVs are nice. Counter help very friendly but tables are messy and the A C doesn't work well it is smelly and humid inside. Savannah salad tastes great w almonds and cranberries and I like the pickle as a nice touch but I'm leaving wanting something more for $12.

So I should have known better and checked out the previous yelp reviews on this place but hunger got the best of me! I've been to other McAllister's before, so I stopped here for lunch. Well boy was I disappointed. I walked in and you could clearly tell that they were disorganized. People were waiting to order and I am not sure what the hold up was. When I finally ordered after waiting in line for a while, I placed my order and sat down. It was pretty busy so the only table available was somewhat dirty but I figured they would clean it before my food arrived. Well I was wrong! No one came around to clean any tables while I waited. After 20 minutes of waiting, my food finally arrived. The server obviously didn't care as she saw the table was dirty. I had to ask her to clean it. Also the food was mediocre, the sandwich and fruit cup was not worth $8. Plus I didn't even eat my fruit cup as the fruit was old. Let's just say I won't be back to this McAllister's!

NO stars if I can be honest! I ordered a chef salad to go. Had to fish out over half the several day old lettuce before digging for any pieces without yuck on them. Toppings were minimal. Bacon means 2 half strips of dehydrated bacon on top...not bacon bits. I will never go to this location again.

Food is horrible and service is worse!! Very loud music and just an overall bad experience.

I've always liked McAlister's, but it seems like this location is below par. The food wasn't excessively late, but had very little flavor. I had the turkey reuben, which is one of the strongest tasting sandwiches that you can eat, and it was flavorless. My husband's turkey melt was also very bland. Disappointing for sure.

Wow. How do you spell SLOW?? McAllister's in Germantown. 30+ minutes to get food with no one in the place

Disappointed...45 minutes to get a soup, salad and a baked potato. Food was also below average. Won't be going back.

Another below average lunch deli. Their system for placing your order is not very efficient. The food is good but not on par with a really good deli. McAlister's has a lot of locations, maybe This one had an off day. I'll try another location.

Doesn't get worse than this. Garbage. Salad wilted...brown lettuce...stale bread...nasty tasting sandwich. Blukkk.

Save your money and go somewhere else. We were one of two people in there so the service was quick, however, the hot sandwich I was supposed to have was cold and the soup was warm at best. This chain has gone down hill and I will try my best to not eat here again.

Good muffaletta but the turkey sandwich was served with nothing but turkey. No cheese,condiments, etc. It was a take out order and I didn't check before I left assuming they put stuff on a sandwich. My mistake.

I used to like McAlisters when I was in college here at the U. of Memphis. However, after I got married and one of my wife's first jobs out of college was as an asst. manager for this chain, I learned that the tip jars that they set on the counters of each and every location is actually pocketed by the owners of the Memphis franchises, JME. How they think it is appropriate to make customers believe they are rewarding good service and then simply add it to their store profits with a big "F off!" to their hourly employees is beyond me. Therefore, my wife and I refuse to frequent their locations and pad their deceitful pockets. Shame on you, JME. On the plus side, my wife was able to use them for a year worth of experience and move on to a better position, so thanks for being a steppingstone!

I stomached my meal one evening and promised never to return. Too many crying kids, stupid parents who won't control them and dirty dirty floors!! YUK! Double yuk!!! I don't care how good your sandwich is or how good your sweet tea is (c'mon, is bloody sweet tea!), I won't ever step foot into this particular McAlister's again.
