Macado’s

Food is just okay. Service was terrible. We had a party of 8, but in a nearly empty restaurant for lunch. Air-​conditioning was broken. Bathroom smelly. Lots of better options in this area.

Your typical American fare, with some other unique options. Good place to come to for sports entertainment. Plenty of TVs. Their draft beer selection is modest, but they have some solid seasonal options. Come here on Tuesday nights and it’s half off Hindenburgs (think club sandwich on steroids). Thursday nights is 2 for 1 appetizers. Lots of locals come here (mainly UNC Charlotte students). Not the type of place you want to come to if you’re looking for a quiet dinner and drinks; especially during sports events.

I probably seriously couldn’t think of anything bad to say except our waitress was a bit forgetful but seeing that she had been working 9+ hours it was all good. She was still very polite & bubbly! Visiting out of town with a group and we were very pleased with this restaurant. I got the southwestern taco salad with chili which I must say is by far the BEST I’ve ever had. One of my colleagues got a burger and I had to take a picture of it. It was huge! The restaurant is nice, food was delicious and the staff was cool. I hope we’re able to revisit before leaving.

Where do I start? We got fried pickles. Not necessarily the best not the worst. We all got sandwiches and you would’ve thought they had to go grocery shopping to get the ingredients. We had to chase our waitress Jess down to get mayo for our sandwiches because she was outside with friends and was too busy. It wasn’t anything to write home about. I won’t be back.

Awesome sandwiches. I have had the club, the titanic with au ju and the wings. Definetly recommend this place !

This place is the define of fine. It’s not bad but definitely not great. The food tastes like the booths looked, tired and lackluster. Our server was attentive so that really boosted the experience. I got the Crazy Chris which is basically a buffalo chicken wrap. Again it was fine. Not the best buffalo chicken but not the worst. I asked for a side of ranch which I was told costed extra, that’s fine. Without the extra ranch the wrap would have been bland at best. I also got the wrap with a side of chips. What I was expecting was some homemade chips but what i got was a bag of ruffles. If you’re going to just use store bought chips at least put them on the plate and pretend you made them. I probably won’t make an effort to come back to Macado’s but if i find myself there for another business meeting I’ll be just fine.

Terrible service! My girlfriend and I stopped at Macado’s around 9pm on a Sunday night, the place was pretty slow. Our waitress seated us, brought us our drinks and disappeared for 10 minutes. Finally a different server came and took our order. After being there for 35 minutes our food finally came out. The food was great, everything was fresh and as expected.
However the lack of concern for the slow and poor service was unacceptable. We never got an apology for the wait either. Another couple came in several minutes after us, and received their food before we did.
Finally, as we walked out the door the two servers at the front desk couldn’t even look up to say, «thanks, come again» or «have a good night.» There are too many good restaurants around that give good service and appreciate their customers to give service like that.

The good — The fried pickles weren’t bad, and we’re not there anymore.
The bad — Everything else. Burger was not good. Toppings tasted like they were burnt and burger patty tasted like it had just come out the the freezer. Chicken wings tasted like the frozen kind that you buy at the grocery store. Maybe we just ordered the wrong things?
The service was horrendous. It took way too long for a server to show up at our table, and once he did, he was very unenthusiastic about his job. Took a long time to get our drinks. He came and asked several times what I was drinking to give me a refill (I was drinking unsweet tea) and 10 minutes or so later, he brings sweet tea. Not a big deal, but his lackluster attitude left us less than impressed. The place was nearly empty, so there’s no excuse there.
I don’t recommend this place and will never go back.

Wow what a menu. It is huge and with a nice variety of types of foods. My husband had a delicious roast beef sandwich and French onion soup. I had chicken Alfredo and it came with a huge side salad. We will be coming back here a lot.

Came here to order takeout for my family on Saturday and it was delicious indeed. We ordered: 2 pastrami ruben, one with coleslaw the other with fries, a turkey ruben with coleslaw, an oriental chicken wrap with coleslaw, a rabbit (chicken salad) wrap with potato salad, a kids chicken fingers plate and a cinnamon roll. The order was ready in 30 minutes as promised but when I got there the hostess was a bit disheveled and overwhelmed with seating, cookie baking, communicating to the other hostess and handling takeout orders. Maybe I just came in at the wrong time but it may be beneficial to reroute the takeout orders or have a dedicated takeout person to avoid any service breaks. She started to help me twice and had to stop to complete the aforementioned task. Unfortunately, it wasn’t the speedy takeout experience of other eateries.
The food was really good though. The Rubens were good overall but they were a bit chintzy on the meat, kraut and dressing and the bread was overly toasted (but not burnt). The wraps were both chocked full of all of the toppings and meat and were fresh and served on a slightly grilled tortilla. These were shining stars indeed. The kids meal was also a bit chintzy but honestly it’s a kids plate. All the sides were homemade and super fresh.
Let me tell you about this cinnamon bun… OMG IT WAS FABULOUS! So fresh and pillowy with the right balance of sweet and cinnamony flavor. I literally wanted to drive back to get 20 more!!! Absolutely fabulous!

My friends brought me to the Boone, NC location a few years ago and then this location opened! We were excited! You can’t go wrong with this joint. Great sandwiches, great beers, and great desserts. Our waitress last night was fantastic. They have great daily specials too! The only thing we were not too thrilled about was the tortilla chips that came out with our queso. They tasted old. Other then that we had a fantastic meal!

I always get the custer’s last stand it is very good nice people good atmosphere free wifi

We came here yesterday, and were in a small rush, needing to be in and out in 45 minutes. We’ve been her many times before, and loved it because it’s close to our home. We waited at least 5 minutes, if not longer, to even be greeted. I even watched/​heard other servers ask whose table we were.
Our server was new, and knew NOTHING. She was very shy and nervous.
By the time we were greeted, we were ready to order, but had questions.
My boyfriend couldn’t remember the name of the sandwich he had with roast beef (The Titanic, he gets it every time and loves it), but she didn’t know either and thought it was under burgers.
I ordered the Chicken Parmesan, comes with garlic bread and a salad (chicken and garlic bread is so crispy and flavorful, and the salad is hearty and topped with bacons crumbles.) Luckily, I knew everything that came with it and knew my options, so I walked her through my own order, but I could tell she didn’t know what to ask.
My boyfriend also asked her if Goose Island IPA was on tap still, which she had to go check (it wasn’t on tap anymore), but came back with another beer suggestion and responded with «whatever that is.» He ended up just ordering a sweet tea, which he waited 45 mins for and ended up getting to go, along with our food because it wasn’t ready yet.
Needless to say, we left angry because the service was slow and the server was not trained properly. When we got home, we also realized my boyfriend never got the potato salad he ordered. I’m giving it two stars just based on bad service. The food is great, but I do think management needs to make sure their servers know the menu before they are on the floor, this visit almost ruined it for us.

I really enjoyed this place! Fantastic sandwich options, i got the Pendleton which was hot pastrami, turkey, 1000 Island, served on rye bread topped off with coleslaw and housemade potato chips. Yum i think there was some cheese in there too. Got a side of coleslaw which was also delicious, couldn’t finish that as i ate my whole large sandwich. Great prices too i got that with a Blue Moon and my bill was only $ 12! Will definitely return here.

Ten dollars for a handful of pasta, three pieces of broccoli and flavorless Alfredo… Not good. I’ve had better from this same place. What a shame. Also asked for my broccoli well done (so it’s softer) and I can barely put my fork through these things. The fork that I had to go back inside for because that was forgotten in my bag as well.

We like to come here after Hornets games. The food is good. I just wish the service was better. The concord mills location had this problem as well.

We were a party of four. We started with Granda Nachos, they were very good. Then we each ordered the sandwich of our choice and they were all good to very good. But the sandwiches took 40min to get to the table after the nachos. The restaurant was about half full so it wasn’t that the kitchen was overwhelmed, it was just slow. Our server did a very good job and we tipped her accordingly, not her fault the kitchen was slow.
I may try it again. But it will be a while.

Good food. And they are open late — a pregnant woman appreciates this for late night snacks ;)
Our server, Sean, was attentive and my experience has been great so far — dine-​in once and takeout in two days.

I just left Macado’s with my family and I was very impressed with the food it was hot and everything was very tasty. We had the Fried Pickles, Potato Wedges, Quesadillas, and some of the sandwiches.
The host greeted us with a smile and the waiter was very nice but I thought he lacked knowledge of the menu and when we asked what was good it’s seemed as though he’s never even eaten at the place.
The pricing was decent on avg $ 8 for a sandwich but they make up for it on the expensive sodas.
The menus are too large in size and very hard to read as has too many items and I doubt if the sandwiches vary that much in nature to have 50 plus sandwiches on a menu and for that reason I can’t even remember the name of my sandwich.
The waiter didn’t pick up one single dish while we was there so we ate with appetizer plates and trash on the table the entire time.
The décor in the place needs updating I think they would serve themselves better to spend some money on the interior and the exterior that looks like the 90s.
I heard this was a college spot that the students visit during the school year but in the summer time when families are out looking for a bite this place may get passed over simply because it doesn’t look family friendly. Great food but yet the place was empty !
Overall I gave it a 3 stars but had the waiter picked up the plates and had knowledge or suggestions for a first time customer and the décor was better I would of gave it a 4 or 5 star for the food alone it was so delicious.

I ordered a chicken teriyaki taco (with fries) to go, so I can’t comment on the actual dining in experience.
The food was fantastic. The tacos were soft, so they went great with the crispy chicken. I loved the fries, as they were fully cooked. Crispy on the outside, soft in the middle! The place wasn’t especially busy on the Sunday night that I went. To her credit, the bartender was very attentive and answered all questions.
Macado’s has a large number of sandwiches, tacos, and wraps. I need to try them all! You should too.
