Our waitress was not personal at all until the very end. I’ve been going to Mac’s for 30 plus years and have had this waitress numerous occasions but she just made us feel rushed and there wasn’t any cheerful interaction with us. She was almost robotic in her presentation of the specials and how she took our orders. Really bad service. We were celebrating my friends Birthday and she only got friendly at the end. I’m assuming for a good tip!

Good food but server had a bad attitude and seemed like she was bothered being there. Not too many people there so they may be struggling. Kinda chilly inside and when we asked to turn up the heat, they said they couldn’t because of the wine?

What a great homey place. Terrific food and dedicated staff. Love the octopus! Fun specials such as Feast of Seven Fishes. It's a bit of a drive for us but worth it.
