Review of McAlister's Deli

Celiacs reading this understand that the best way to test out a restaurant on their celiac-friendliness is to call ahead, and upon hearing a lot of "uh" or "um," to go somewhere else. I was glad to not encounter that here, but... The person answering the phone, who I won't name because he tried his best, was not familiar with celiac (or gluten, other than the term "gluten-free bread") and asked the manager, as one would expect. The manager couldn't be bothered to come to the phone, but the person answering told me that while they had gluten-free bread, they had nothing gluten-free to put on the bread to constitute a sandwich. So if you're using this app, expect to be offered plain bread at this place. The manager can't manage to want our business. So 3/5 stars because the person answering the phone was friendly and really did try, even though the manager was zero help other than helping me decide where not to eat.
