Service was great and the food was actually really good. I didn’t like the macaroni balls but mainly because it didn’t have enough flavor. The chicken parm bowl was great. I also enjoyed both Cuban and short rib sandwiches.

So the food was good, but pricey. I was disappointed that my “side” of tomato soup was in a condiment cup. I also ordered some mac and cheese bites.

Really awesome food. I also love Mac and Cheese, so this concept is amazing. There is parking in front of the store, which isn’t quite where Google says it is, so keep your eyes peeled! The staff was also awesome and really friendly. I love it here.

Love that this establishment has so many different base options! As a person who has to eat Gluten free being able to get GF pasta and bread just made my day! The food is delicious! And the customer service even better! Will definitely be returning and telling everyone I can about this place! You even get 40 mins of free parking!

The vegan mac was extremely bland and dry. The tots were good though and the restaurant was clean. Overpriced.

Super yummy. I did the create a bowl. I have pasta, quinoa, cheese sauce, tomatoes, mushrooms, crispy chicken, white cheddar, and swiss. Drinks are a little under $2. I got the whole meal for $13. I love it. It reminds me of a “subway” setup. So it was easy to order, pay, and sit down to eat quickly if needed. You can also take it Togo. I highly reccomend. Very fast and I went at 2pm on Monday and it was not busy.

I went get the buffalo chicken mac and cheese bites. The employee was very rude and sarcastic to start off with when I had never been to this restaurant before. Then they burnt my food beyond being edible and they smelt burnt. The employee knew my food was badly burnt but still decided to package it and serve it to me. Then when I came back to complain the same employee told me supposedly all the mac and cheese bit come out really burnt and never tried to make it right or apologize. He told me told me to call corporate.

Came on a Monday night with a group. Quiet in the restaurant and the two guys behind the counter were very slow, took 30 minutes to get 2 bowls, and one was incorrect.

I really wanna give this place 5 stars, but I’m super conflicted. The food was great!!! The price and the service, however, was about enough to never go back. We went in last Sat around 6:30pm & the place was literally empty, which worried me bc I thought it’d be packed on a Saturday evening. 1 of the 2 girls working had the worst attitude ever. My husband asked if he could get tots AND pasta both as a base, and even said he would pay the extra charge…she said no. I suggested that he just order a side of Mac and dump it into his bowl when we sat down…she said that we couldn’t just order a side of Mac, so we had to order a Mac n chs kids meal, on top of the one we already ordered for our son. When we got our food, the little dipping cup of tomato soup wasn’t even half full and I had to ask for an extra one. My sandwich with vegan Mac n cheese and very few vegan burger crumbles, ended up being over $15, bc everything vegan/vegetarian costs quite a bit extra..which I understand, but for that price, I think I should’ve gotten more than 5 tater tots with my meal. For WHATEVER reason, my husband left a $10 tip!!?? (You take your own food to your table, get your own drinks and clean your own table when finished…so I think it’s ridiculous that there’s even a suggested tip AND a tip jar) After seeing that, the girl with the attitude started to act a little more helpful…but you could tell she was still really struggling with being nice to us. For the 2 of us and our 7yr old son, our bill was somehow $58!!!! NOT including the tip he left, and NOT including the horrible dessert that was supposed to be cheesecake bites!?? They were rock hard, frozen..and had a breading on them that was like breadcrumbs you’d get on a chicken nugget. The texture was super weird as well. My son’s cookies were good though. Sucks those girls were so rude and made it super obvious that they hated their job bc the meal was amazing. Just not $58+ kind of amazing.
