Nice place!

Note: I have not tried the restaurant. This is for the food truck.

Yesterday at ISU I tried the Macubana food truck. On one hand, the food was excellent buI had a difficult time eating it after seeing the kitchen... read on. The service was fine, typical food truck. But the cleanliness of the food truck kitchen inside was absolutely abhorrent. I have no idea how that passes health inspections -- absolutely filthy. Every visible surface had a layer of grime, even the bottle of spray cleaner I could see had a layer of brown filth on it. Yikes.

My wife and I stopped in and had a great meal. Great concept and variety regarding mac and cheese. The staff was very helpful and nice.

Kind of like a slightly better Applebee's but with a focus on mac and cheese and grilled cheese. Right in the heart of campustown by ISU, so it can get busy. I recommend going at an off-peak time.

A really good idea for a restaurant! A whole bunch of really good dishes that would slap on a drunk night out. I had the tomato, basil, and mozzarella dish. It was basically pasta. My partner had the barbecue brisket Mac and cheese, which was to die for! They also had a ton of different long Island ice tea flavors that were great! I had the Tokyo tea, which was awesome! My partner had the Nerds tea, and that was really sweet. It's not my flavor, but it's still good. Good prices and a good atmosphere! Right in campus town, so it's a perfect location for college students.

Charged us more than our bill was by 40 dollars! Refused to look in to why and said it had to be our bank.
