    Omelette
    Chelsea M.

    I just stopped in on the way to get my hair done.. very small town type place. I was greeted and sat as soon as i walked in. I ordered a coffee and a omelette and both were good. It actually was one of the better omelettes ive had in the area which was great! The service was good as well coffee stayed full along with my water and was checked on every few minutes to make sure i was good.

    Loads of feta on the 'Grecian' skillet!

    We have been coming to City Limits Diner for many years. It is now our 'go-to' for breakfast. The waffles are really good but the king of breakfast here is the skillet! You get a big plate of potatoes mixed up with assorted other ingredients (depending on which skillet you ordered) plus 2 eggs. Plus 2 slices of toast (yes, they have wheat and raisin!) or 2 pancakes! You won't be hungry for a while. Service is always friendly and they treat you like family. This place is hoppin in the mornings on the weekend so if you are a late riser, you won't have much wait. They close at 3 every day, so remember that! For lunch, they make a decent burger or sandwich with a few creative options. The menu is extensive.

    Dehydrated oranges and frozen pineapple/yellow watermelon "fresh fruit"
    Mina ..

    PSA: do not order fruit here as I was served dehydrated oranges and frozen "yellow watermelon/pineapple" which they claimed was "fresh and cut just today". Didn't know "yellow watermelon/pineapple" naturally grows frozen. Was quite disappointed as I was looking forward to eating some fresh fruit.

    Little neighborhood hangout.

It came in a ciabatta bread but it was more bread than chicken meat. My friend next to me said her fries came out cold. My husband had the double smash cheese burger and I had a bite of it but it tasted too beefy and bland did not taste like a smash burger at all. The device was good and we would like to come back and try it again. Hopefully next time we'll sit in the outdoors patio and can order something else. Also the bathroom was hot almost felt like there was ac in that part of the restaurant.

There is no excuse for that kind of behavior in a customer-facing job. Was told that management would investigate what happened and take appropriate action to ensure customers are treated with respect...but to no avail...she is still running around like she owns the place. Being cocky as hell to most customers, with nothing being done about it. I have refused to come in and personally speak with management as this is an affordable place for me to eat at in my lunch breaks and I know what some restaurants do in retaliation to this sort of complaint. No thank you to bodily fluids or green boog in my food. I just wish management would put a stop to the acting of a fool in front of customers from this one and many more employees here Very unprofessional.

    I've been coming to this Coney Island for years, and unfortunately it's not the same restaurant it…read moreused to be. The previous manager was well-liked by customers and seemed to take pride in keeping the restaurant running smoothly. Since management changed, the overall quality and cleanliness have noticeably declined. Not to mention the speed of the food being cooked and delivered. (There is one waitress -Tonja- who will let your food sit and get cold while she's either sitting on her phone or talking) While the other waitstaff continues to do a good job and remains one of the few bright spots, the condition of the restaurant is concerning. The dining area often has food crumbs and debris on the floor, tables are frequently not cleaned properly, and the bathrooms are regularly dirty and poorly maintained. I'm also concerned about food preparation practices. The kitchen is visible to customers, and one cook works with a long goatee that is not covered by any type of beard restraint. Another employee is often visibly sweating while working around food. These are the kinds of details that make customers question the restaurant's attention to cleanliness and food safety. It's disappointing to see a longtime local favorite fall to this level. I hope ownership takes these concerns seriously because this restaurant used to be a place I enjoyed recommending. At this point, if it weren't for the waitstaff, I likely would have stopped coming altogether.

    I have heard people talk about Mac's and recommend it…read more My wife has eaten there with one of her girlfriends and she has brought home leftover and they were fantastic. I can be very critical of restaurants. I have over 20 years food service experience. From the UK to the USA. I will say that every dish that was prepared for us was absolutely phenomenal! The timing of the service of the dinner was very good. No long waits, and the food was served hot, the proper temperatures. We had steamed mussels with the home made bread. The pairing was excellent. My wife has never eaten alligator and she surprised me by suggesting that she would like to try it. The taste was very fresh, lightly battered and spiced to perfection. My wife does not like spicy food, but she enjoyed it. We next tried the soups. She had the Mariners chowder and I had the gumbo. I have lived in Southern Mississippi, and I will say that the gumbo is by far one of the best that I have ever had. The Mariners chowder was also very good, but the gumbo was exceptional. For our entree my wife had the Lobster roll and 1 had the Jambalaya. The Lobster roll came on a grilled roll and the lobster stuffing was very fresh tasting. The Jambalaya was spicy the way it should be. The serving size was abundant. For dessert we had key lime pie and cheese cake with a strawberry. Both were very very good. The wait staff were very friendly and answered any questions that we had about the menu. I highly recommend Mac's for any of those special occasions or to just go out and have a good meal with you family.

Can you imagine a steakhouse telling customers they have no steak? Anyway, the 2nd problem was the bartender went to the kitchen to see if there was any alligator. She was gone an interminaly long time, finally reappeared and...immediately struck up a conversation with someone at the bar! She kept yakking on and on, FINALLY, I asked about the alligator, none to be found. I actually had to interrupt her conservation with the other customer or she would have talked forever and ever! All I wanted to do was order some food. After that, everything was fine. I still tipped (I probably shouldn't have though) and that was the end of it. Nice lady, attractive and pleasant. But...she needs to be re-trained as a server. Not a good server at all. Mac's is not what it used to be. Sad, but true. ​
