First & worst experience, will not be back. Waited 37 minutes in the drive through, and when I get up to the window to pay the lady says “you had kids meal?” I said uhh no.. She says “ok that lady must have drove off, ok what did you have?” I only remembered that I ordered a half a sandwich and soup but didn’t know the names because I don’t come to McAllisters, so I told her that I ordered a half sandwich and soup and she said “$15.52” I asked if it is usually around a 35+ minute wait as I don’t come here but want to know that way I can plan accordingly in the future since I’ve spent my entire lunch break and then some in their drive thru and she said “$15.52”. I then asked if they always charge full price after their customers wait almost 40 minutes with their cars idling for food, and she said “yes, $15.52.” So I handed her my card and let her know that I would like a receipt. I waited a few more minutes for my card to be brought back to me, as she brought it to the front of the restaurant to run it, and she did return a few minutes later with my card and receipt as well as my half sandwich, soup, and large iced tea (which the ice had almost completely melted in). I called after leaving the drive thru and pressed 3 to speak with a member of management and the same woman from the drive thru answered the call and immediately said “please hold” and put me on hold. She came back to the line and said “how can I help you” and before I could even say a word she hung up. Definitely not an experience that I would say is worth $15.52, and in the future I will not invest 40 minutes in their drive thru for that kind of service. My sandwich was lukewarm and my soup is a gelatinous coagulated consistency- Would not recommend. McAllisters: I know that this review will probably get the same canned-air response that you comment on every poor review, so please don’t feel the need to waste your time!

Got the turkey club, excellent flavor. Just the right size for lunch, wife Got the Italian sandwich, so large took half home. Nice sit down environment.

They mess up and forget even the easiest orders. Out of multiple items. Also kind of run down and not clean. Wouldn’t recommend.

I enjoy the garden fresh turkey sandwich. However, I went in today and they just put a whole avocado on the sandwich. I guess I can be thankful that the skin was off, but it wasn't sliced or anything. I was in a hurry, so I just broke some of it up myself, but it was definitely not fun.

Ordered a choose 2, the veggie sandwich was missing avocado and herb mayo but had black olives on it I did not ask for any of those changes. Asked for a pickle received no pickle.
