We apologize for the poor experience you had at our Temple deli! This is not the level of customer service we strive to provide and we take this feedback very seriously. We will address this issue with our staff to ensure it does not happen again. We've passed this on to the General Manager and Regional Director for further review. Thank you for bringing this to our attention Diego.

This location sure exceeded my expectations yesterday for lunch. The restaurant was immaculate, and the service was fantastic. Several workers came into the dining room to see how customers were doing. I think 4 of them came to my table throughout my meal and one picked up my plate soon after I was finished. I've been to a number of these restaurants. This one beats all of them. I was probably in and out in less than 20 minutes.

Okay, okay! Yes I would like to leave a review. Thank you for asking and reminding :P We've been here enough times to declare that we love their menu!
Colossal baked potatoes and tasty chicken tortilla soup are my faves! Usually we order on their app for pick up - easy peasy. Then one day we decided to dine in. Add more to my faves please.
Jalapeno Turkey Crunch Sandwich
Southwest Chicken & Avocado Salad
The outside doesn't seem like the inside. In fact the interior appeared modern, bright, and airy. Seeing the real menu for the first time made us want so many. We went with the 2-fer combos with some soup - great decision!Helpful 38Thanks 4Love this 37Oh no 0Business owner information

Joanna, THANK YOU! Thank you for leaving such detailed feedback. Thank you for complimenting so much items on our menu. We're lucky to have you as one of our biggest fans. Cheers!

This is where they got me - with loaded baked potatoes. From their Giant Spuds menu, the variety makes me want to try them all! So far the Black Angus Roast Beef and Spud Max choices were carbo-licious!
My pairing preference is soup. The flavor of the chicken tortilla soup is perfect for me. My tongue has no complaints! I actually enjoy it without the tortilla chips. The other soup offerings are: Country Potato, Broccoli & Cheddar, Chili, or Veggie Chili.
This is a great deli so of course you'll find sandwiches and salads on a tasteful menu. Carb- fiend approved! - Chris C.Golfcrest, Houston, TX74317Jan 13, 2024
One of the worst locations we've visited in a while , although the customer service was decent and number of additional items we added to our order were forgotten. We also had a pretty small portion of the "choose 2" nachos. I understand the choose 2 are significantly smaller than normal portions but the portion that was given was more like a 1/4 rather than 1/2. All in all the food we did receive was "ok" but , was not anything I'd make a second trip for .

By far my favorite sandwich place since moving from NY. Their sandwiches are fresh and delicious. The French dip is my favorite. The spuds are cooked perfectly and I cannot stress enough, GRAB THE STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE WHILE THEY HAVE IT. 11 out of 10. Even got this to go and was still perfect temp. Staff is so kind and attentive every single time we come in.

My mom & I just ordered food to be delivered, delivery was just fine no problem.
We ordered over $50 ,2 of them being the Southern Chicken Salad, however, about the time we decided to look at the salads because we were gonna eat 1/2 of our other food then half of our salads, the salad itself tasted great,
but as we started in on our salads, SURPRISE NO CHICKEN
So called up there to let them know, the girl says to me, I guess you wouldn't want to "BRING THEM UP THERE, TO SHOW THEM THERE WAS NO CHICKEN!!!!
ALSO on their review portion on their website it WILL NOT let you leave anything less than a four or five, and it doesn't let you submit complaints either. I spent over $50 and you think Im gonna try and get extra chicken, SMDH.
When they said they would get a Mgr. I was CONVIENTLY hung up on. NEVER AGAIN, if they have it set where you cant give less than 4 or 5 stars thats SHADY. . . The whole reason for delivery is NOT TO GET OUT.

We're unbelievably sorry for the poor experience you had with us, Karli. There's no excuse for preparing your items without care and failing to rectify the issue once notified. On behalf of McAlister's Deli Temple, we sincerely apologize for all the disappointment we caused. The Team should've been far more thorough, attentive, kind and accommodating. We're incredibly sorry for letting you down. The General Manager, Regional Director and Chief Operating Officer were made aware of your feedback. Thank you for shedding light on our shortcomings. We're hoping to discuss further via private message. Please be on the lookout.

Reuben
Reuben tasted phenomenal. They went a little easy on the sauerkraut and the thousand island dressing tho, but besides that the Reuben was loaded and delicious. Got a side of Mac n cheese which was extremely subpar. Taste was not there nor was the amount of noodles. Had maybe a total of 10 noodles in the entire serving. We also had to wait a significant amount of time to receive our food along with several other patrons there at the moment (20 min for a takeout order). The crew working was very nice and respectful even though the restaurant was busy and they were limited in staff.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information

Please know, your feedback was passed on to the General Manager, Regional Director and Chief Operating Officer. Many thanks for making us aware. I can assure you that this will be addressed.
