McAlisters Deli - Fort Oglethorpe (GA)

5 /5 Candice Boring: We did wait a few minutes before a server arrived but host was apologetic. Food came out fairly quick and was tasty with a modern twist. The yucca fries and cheese queso was suggested and a great recommendation. I had the chicken fajitas, enough for two. I always love a good Tempranillo and they have one on the menu. Nice patio when the weather becomes cooler and not rainy. Very enjoyable atmosphere.

2 /5 K. Gustowski: Really disappointed in this location. Ive been here quite a few times and have had great service in the past. I went in with a friend to grab a bite to eat, and my husband wanted me to grab him something to go. Ive ordered a dine in and takeout meal on the same ticket before at this location and have had no issues in the past. However, this evening I attempted to make an order that also had a takeout and was told that they could not do that. The cashier told me they would have to bring it out like a dine-in meal and that she could give me a box to box it up myself. Ive worked in customer service for 10 years, so I try not to be a bother because I know what its like being behind the register. So I didnt try to argue with her. The cashier never brought me the boxes as she said she would, and I never even really saw her again. I had to ask another girl behind the counter if I could have a box. My husbands meal sat on a plate next to me while I ate dinner with my friend. The whole situation was very odd and avoidable had they just packaged it as a to go order.

3 /5 Greg Carver: Before reading: My restaurant reviews cover the usual but are also heavily from a gluten-free diners point of view; if this doesnt interest you, my review may not be as useful to you as to the growing celiac and otherwise gluten-free community. Or, if you have a different food allergy, my experience may give you some idea of how a restaurant handles food allergies in general. Not sure what has happened - maybe new management? Staff has heard of gluten but has no idea it goes beyond just bread. Good luck explaining that; it will fall on deaf ears, so save your breath and just insist that they check with the kitchen if you get the dumbfounded stare. Still lots of gluten-free options at reasonable prices. Menu items that are already gluten-free are prominently marked with a wheat icon, and in the past, they have been willing to substitute ingredients to make gluten-free versions of other items; again, have the checkout person consult with the kitchen. Sandwiches, spuds, specialty teas, and lemonades are among the gluten-free fare here. Be careful of soups and desserts.

2 /5 Marie Coffey: I have been here 7 times in the last 5 months and every single time I go they don’t have potatoes. When I have gone at lunch time they state they do not serve potatoes at lunch time and only dinner. I have been to many other McAlisters where this is not the standard. I went today at dinner at they stated they did not have any potatoes because they were not prepped. When over 1/3 of the menu is potatoes you should have potatoes. The service was good and the workers were kind about the situation. I understand it’s not their fault and they did everything right. The place is clean and the food is tasty. I would probably give it 4 stars if I wasn’t so frustrated with my experience with the potatoes every time I come. Management seriously needs to address this issue.

2 /5 Garrett Leroux: The taste of the food was really great and the employees were kind. The portion sizes were a little small and I was shocked at the Price. For something equivalent to Panera, it would be significantly cheaper to go to Panera. Will not be returning due to cost.
