Went for the Sunday Brunch. Got there at 12:15 and the buffet was basically empty. I ask about it and the server said they were out of some items and was told they would not restock the buffet. I ate what they had and it was tasteless. What a disappointment after driving 50 miles. Then to top it off, they don't honor their posted price of $19.99 but charged me $20.79. Sorry to say, after reading all of the reviews, it is a ongoing problem and again after reading the reviews, I was glad I didn't need to use the restroom!!

3rd time coming here. 1st time was ok...very average food not great not horrible just ok.

2nd time was outstanding food was amazing great portions, it came out hot with a lot of flavor!

Today January 8th we arrived at 6:40pm after ordering beverages the waitress informed us the waitress time for our food would be 1 1/2 hours before we would get it. We decided to stay...that was a mistake. Food came to our table 2 hours later. No problem except everything was over cooked. I GOT THE Vegas burger just like I did at my 2nd time visiting....today it was a lot smaller portions almost 1/3 smaller than the last visit it came out cold and the fries were cold as well. My wife ordered the grilled chicken skewers with twiced baked potato and caeser salad. Chicken came out cold, with no seasoning and so dry she couldn't eat it. The twice baked potato was great but cold and the salad was great. Waitress went to take to manager about the chicken to see about having it taken off the bill... but the manager offered instead a complimentary dessert instead. We turned it down. So we ending up paying 45.45 for a dry cheeseburger and a caeser salad and twice baked potato and 2 sodas. Waitress was amazing but the manager lost a customer forever. Won't return because management stands by their lousy food and the kitchen is proven to be very inconsistent. Do not recomend unless you want a cool atmosphere to hang out in. Go for drinks but eat at the risk of wasting money on overpriced inconsistent food.

Great food, great staff, great prices, great place to kick it any day of the week.

You can pop in there at lunch and keep it easy, or swing by at dinner and have a couple. Spreading out all over and I’m loving it.

I’m a fan, check them out if you haven’t already.

If you’re into someone chain smoking cigarettes inside of an enclosed restaurant while you eat your dinner then this is the place for you. It was so smokey we could hardly breathe and had to take our food to go. I would understand allowing people to smoke if you had a window or door open even, but nope, not the case. Completely illegal and gross.

It wasn't bad but very underwhelming. Service was ok. Big place. Went for lunch and it was cold inside. Food was tasteless. I had the blue cheese burger and steak fries. The fries were cooked right being crunchy on the outside and soft inside but no flavor. The bun was toasted nicely. The burger was a bit overdone and zero flavor.

We had the fried mushrooms as an appetizer and it was good. Not great but better than others. I wanted to love this place but really have no reason to want to go back.

We came here as a family group on a trip from out of town. Before we even found a place to sit we were greeted and welcomed. Johnny was our bartender. The music was great the vibes were fantastic. Drinks were cold. 10/10

We walked in and before we even sat down Johnny, the bartender waved and greeted us. He’s a fantastic bartender. We felt very welcome! Drinks were great! 10/10. The music was great, the vibes were even better!

I wanted to order Mac’s for carry out. Online their website takes you to order through DoorDash. DoorDash notified me my food was ready @ 7:14 via email and push notification on the DoorDash app. I arrived and the person behind the counter gave me the dirtiest look as if I was dirt on her shoe and said that’s not ready and won’t be for a while and I said oh okay I was just checking in because I was notified that it was ready and the person got an attitude and started explaining everything away and I really was just trying to say I was notified and that’s the only reason I was asking. I believe they thought I was a door dasher. However I am not I am a CUSTOMER. Will not ever order from Mac’s again. Do not recommend even to door dash as that person looks down upon people that dash apparently. Anyway finally got my food at 7:49.
