So sad to have to write this. Normally I love this place, but after finding a rather large chunk of metal.....like half of an expanded metal diamond......in my pork and shrimp pad thai.......and having barely any acknowledgement from staff other than a "Don't know how that got there," I won't be coming back. And it's sad because there is a legitimate shortage of good Asian food in the area.... How it got there, I have no clue, but no one acknowledged it or did anything to make it right. read more

My friends and I got takeout from here when I came to visit them. The Pho had a lot of amazing toppings and they were definitely generous with their servings for takeout which I appreciated. The Pho broth seemed a little in the sweeter side which isn't really my thing but I still enjoyed it for the most part. The service was so kind, I really enjoyed talking to the guy who took our order; I wish I would have caught his name to give him some credit. The ambiance was super nice and colorful in there, I appreciated it. They also had a place to put in an order without talking to someone which I appreciated for those who are more shy. I definitely would recommend people try this place out when you're in the area. read more

Sorry wasn't pleased with the pho weak tasting broth. Service was quick unfortunately the only thing we enjoyed was the wontons.

Awful portion sizes for the price of it been going for here for years last time I buy here from again use to love now it doesn't taste the same everything is just blah and small won't be coming back stay away if you wanna keep your wallet full. :( read more

The Egg Rolls were tasty, but the flavor in the chicken in the chicken rice platter was off, very edible, but kind of weird. And having regular rice with it isn't as fun as the broken rice you get at Vietnamese places. This place is kind of like the last place in this spot, pan Asian, with dishes from Vietnam, Thailand and China. But the previous restaurant had different Thai curry dishes that were pretty good, and the new restaurant is more Vietnamese staples, and lots of standard Chinese dishes. The price is very affordable. read more

We stopped in on a whim, and I'm so glad we did! I was craving pho, and the beef pho was amazing. Lots of flavor and soft beef. My partner got the banh mi and the pork noodle bowl, and the pork and shrimp were also delicious. The service was also super quick. I would love to come back. read more

I love the pho here! They even have an option to just get broth which is amazing!! I will be back to try other menu items. The serving sizes are very big. Good price too read more

Authentic, genuine good Asian food. Great table service from Trang. Fantastic Pho! Bun Salad is delicious with both their eggrolls & grilled pork. read more

Pho is top-notch. Egg rolls are stand-out good. Curry, noodle dishes really solid too. Great Vietnamese spot in the north metro.

Clean, efficient, no rush but food arrived quickly and freshly made. Very tasty. I will come back with family next time. Many condiments at the table to season more if you want! read more

Very disappointed. I ordered take out for lunch: fried rice and spring rolls. The fried rice was no more than frozen peas and carrots added to the rice. Large hunks of white chicken breast, I'm sure was boiled or steamed no flavor. Spring rolls were tough with shrimp and slices of cold pork! I would not go back. read more

Had a late lunch early dinner here today. Once again really good food. We ordered our spring rolls without cilantro because my husband doesn't like it and they were great. We had plenty of food to split our spring rolls and house pad Thai. Was a good choice for lupper. read more

What a delightful surprise! The restaurant is located in a strip mall and has a rather unassuming front. However, once inside the restaurant, it was surprisingly larger than we thought. The menu is extensive and there were plenty of choices for each of us. Everything we had was delicious - appetizers, entrees, and boba. We will be visiting here again - especially if we are shopping at Kohl's or Target which is within short walking distance from the restaurant. read more

I've only done take out from here but now I'm thinking I should dine in at some point and try a few new things. The pho is delicious, love the flavor of the broth, it never disappoints and always hits the spot. read more

My significant other wasn't feeling well with a cold & Mac Kitchen has the BEST Pho broth! The Combination Pho helped him clear his upper sinus just smelling it! I tried the Bubble tea with Boba here for the first time...it was amazing! My server offered different kinds of bobas, so I opted for the exploding-in-your-mouth kind. I was not disappointed. The Mango Boba was delicious! Thank you for expanding my horizons Mac Kitchen! read more

The food was excellent, the service was outstanding, and I will definitely eat there again!

You must try their food. Excellent!! First time there and didn't disappoint. Pad Thai and General Tao were so good.

Service is fast and food comes out quickly here. One of the few places to get a decent bowl of pho up in the Lino Lakes area. The broth is a nice and clean beef broth. It's a nice balance of not too sweet and not too salty. You can always add other sauces to your bowl of pho to customize the flavor, but I prefer to let the broth shine and dip the meat in a side bowl of siracha and hoisin. The portion isn't huge for the price, however, it's much better than the pan-asian restaurants in the area with pho on the menu. read more

First impression was wow great asian food finally in this blaine/lino lakes area. For us we thought it was on par with the asian ones on university ave. Such as Cheng heng, trieu Chau, and ipho. Very tasty asian food not bland down like panda express or leeann chin. Price wise was great compared to chili thai cuisine which they were good but much pricier. They moved across the street and this place took over. Imo if this place lower their price by maybe .50-.75 it would be excellent. People would be highly satisfied with the quality of food with price paid. Egg rolls were the bomb, the mix in it was magnificent. Chicken fried rice was awesome. Good portion to match price. Spicy hot chicken was also great. Very very Similar to trieu chau same dish. Looking forward to trying their pho! Would be awesome to finally have a great asian restaurant that matches those in stp and mpls downtownish areas without actually driving all the way back to the twin cities. Try them out and hope it's awesome for yall so we can keep them here please! read more

Very large menu and reliably good food and friendly service. I feel the price is high but will pay it for how easy it is to get to and quality of food. The workers are also pleasant and have a smile waiting for you. I recommend giving MAC Kitchen a try! read more

I'm vegetarian and this restaurant is very heavily meat-based, so that's the perspective this review is written in. I was definitely excited to see another Asian restaurant in Lino Lakes. I love Vietnamese food, but unfortunately there were only veggie options with the Chinese dishes. I would love it if there were a tofu banh mi added to the menu. With that said, we ordered the cream cheese wontons, veggie fried rice, and tofu/veggie Kung Pao to go. All were good, but nothing over the moon. I'll likely be back in the future when I don't want to venture too far from home. read more

I decided to order the pad Thai because I had been craving it from the thai place across the street who doesn't deliver. I was really expecting for it to be just ok... it was better than expected and actually very good! A bit oily but I'd MUCH rather that than dry rice noodles! Veggies were crunchy and fresh, the chicken was delicious and not over cooked or rubbery. I like my rice noodles a little more al dente but they were just fine. I've gotten one of the lunch specials in the past and while I wasn't disappointed, it didn't stand out. Perhaps it was just whichever entree I had that time... will definitely try them again! Hoping their Bun salad is decent! read more

Mac Kitchen - Pad Thai - chicken - Vietnamese Near Me - Lino Lakes, Minnesota

We have gone there about 10 times & enjoyed the freshness, good seasonings, portion size but especially the lack of grease. The last three times we ordered it's been too hot to eat, even for our real spice lovers. For scale, I don't like hotter than a few fresh jalapeños but can go a bit hotter. My family, they really like it much hotter. This time I called in the order and asked for two of the meals not have spice and it had been too hot for wimpy me. I was lead to believe it was fine. It was the spiciest meal yet, inedible heat for all. They aren't cheap meals so three times in the trash is too much for me. If you like it hot this maybe a great fit for you but I am done. read more

Was in the area and am always looking for good Vietnamese restaurants. It was clean however the woman at the front count was not friendly at all. The food was okay. I got the Vietnamese chowmein and egg rolls. Half the veggies where canned and the other half where fresh. I will not be returning. read more

Stopped in to try the pho. It was very mediocre. The meat was not very good so I would not recommend getting the beef brisket pho. Otherwise the food came out fast and the waitress was nice. read more

Spring Rolls were fresh and delicious. Beef bun was too. Vietnamese coffee was perfect. Highly recommend!

I ordered food from Mac Kitchen via Door Dash. I discovered this little restaurant going to Target in Lino Lakes. As a Vietnamese-American, I'm happy to see a Vietnamese restaurant in town. I ordered spring rolls, fried dumplings, and chicken fried rice. Overall everything was delicious. The spring rolls were fresh and nicely wrapped to prevent the wrapper from drying out. Sauce was good. The fried pork dumplings were delicious and cooked well. The chicken fried rice was my favorite. Everything seems to be made to order from scratch. Definitely will visit once quarantine is over or order delivery from them again. I would post pictures but I ate my food! read more

I absolutely love the surge of authentic Vietnamese restaurants in the area! Here we have the FIRST for Lino Lakes (that I am aware) that serves Bahn Mi sandwiches. This is an authentic Vietnamese sandwich that is, and I don't think I can over state this, the best sandwich on the planet!! With other traditional Vietnamese, Chinese and Thai dishes on the menu it is sure to be a local favorite. Visit these guys and give them a good Lino welcome!! read more

What a hidden gem! This place is delicious! It was our first time ordering so we tried a few dishes and I tell you everything was better than the competition in the area! We will definitely be going back! This place has become a regular for us!!! read more

Bun (vietnamese egg roll salad) is perfect. Pho is good. Sweet and Sour Chicken one of the best. Lo Mein, Cream Cheese Wontons just fine too. Very comparable to Orchid restaurant which is our favorite of all time, but Mac Kitchen is closer. read more

Mon, Dad and me were at Discount Tire across the street when they told us it would be a 1/2 hour or so. We asked where a good place to eat is. They directed us to Mac Kitchen... What a find!

The best I've had in a really long time and the price was good and you got a good portion of food

Kind of disappointed in this and my fellow yelpers for recommending it. Ordered the hot and spice chicken which is a staple Vietnamese dish and I also ordered the eggrolls. The hot and Spicy chicken was more like Hot and spicy large chunks of onions and peppers. I will admit i found a little more chicken in the bottom of the container the second day. Overall just let down and wont be back here. read more

I love the idea of lunch combinations to choose from. I've visited 2-3 times to try different things and found that the food lacks taste and savory. It's either too sweet or too bland. I would've wanted a balance of savory and sweet. And maybe more food for the price read more

I tried the pho' and cream cheese wontons, both were great! So nice to have a Vietnamese spot in this area.

Seriously SUCH good food! Our favorites are the chicken curry, sesame chicken, general tso chicken and the fried rice. The egg rolls are so yummy too! Great business with really great food. read more
