McAlisters Deli review: Subpar ruebens

With St Patrick's Day coming up, my boyfriend and I were craving a Rueben. Where better to go than a deli! We got there about 3 pm on Sunday (March 8) and the place was nearly empty. The turnaround from order to table was pretty quick...and we found out why. The one positive thing about their Rueben is that it was LOADED with corned beef...albeit room temperature and even pockets that were cold. The bread was only toasted; the sandwich is typically grilled. There was hardly any sauerkraut and the 1000 Island dressing was weird (tasted like there was some horseradish in it?),

This is near Gurnee Mills so there is a dearth of other, better fast food options. Would maybe go again and try a different menu item...but with so many other options, it would be a last option (aka- everyplace else is closed so not likely). Very disappointing.
