Mcalister's Deli - Knoxville

This is mine and my husband?s go to around town for a good, filling, satisfying meal. I ordered the chicken tortilla soup in a bread bowl and it was delicious!

The food is really good but the drinks are not... We ordered sweet tea with our meal and it tasted old and no sugar at all. Just me but if I'm paying 2 dollars for sweet tea I like it to have sugar in it. Also the dining area wasn't very clean, the tables were sticky and hadn't been cleaned , and so they could not have been sanitized. If I order again It will certainly be take out only.

Schaad Road ....Ordered Green Goddess salad last week they forgot the selling point of avocado, so had to go back and get side of avocado and comped with free lunch card. Redeem my card today, and they forgot my cookie, AND packaged my wet pickle with my hot french dip. Mcalister is on a time out with me now! Staff were less than happy or courteous on free tea day!

Usually love this place. Have been to this local countless times. Today was a little disappointing. I went to leave and got refill on my tea to have one to go. I needed to purchase another. The lady was very frank that I needed to go to the backnof the line. I understand taking a register away from another customer but I was willing to leave more than enough to cover the cost and she could have rang it up after the line dwindled. I just went next door at Arby's and purchased my tea.

Very good. Loved the broccoli cheese soup and their brownies are the best. The staff was great the place was clean.
