McAlister's Deli - Bentonville

Today I got the BLT-A for lunch and to say it was amazing is an understatement. The bread was perfectly toasted, the bacon crisp but not burnt and the avocado and tomato tasted miraculously in season for it being the end of December. The woman who took our order was really friendly and patient, she double-checked to make sure our order was correct. While the decor and seating could perhaps use some updating, it is a comfortable spot and easy to find a seat. We asked for some extra dipping sauce for my daughter's pretzel bites and they brought it out right away. And even though it is a place where you order up front and they bring your food out, there is always staff nearby offering to clear the table when you are done eating or get refills on your drinks. Everyone was honestly exceptional, and we had a great lunch. I don't know if I will ever order anything else there, because the BLT-A was so dang good, but I imagine you can't go wrong with anything on the menu. I did not take any pictures because there was nothing was going to come between me and that delicious sandwich!

Had the Southwest Spicy Chicken sandwich and Chicken Dumpling soup, delicious, will return.

Expensive for not great food. It is ok, but not at level of Panera.

Busy as he'll but still great service . Food tasted great

Great food, reasonable price and absolutely the best sweet tea of any restaurant.
