One of my favorite spots for take out food! You can't beat the Philly cheese steaks here, as well as the amazing fries! I love the classic cheese steak as well as the garlic one, but you can't go wrong with any of them. read more

Passed through Canandaigua and was happy they were opened. Ordered on phone they brought my order to my car. I drove home (15miles) sandwich was delicious but I ordered everything on it and it was just cheese. It was still delicious but I called to let them know. The girl remembered me checked and the order went in ok. She is actually driving here to bring me another sandwich. Omg that wasn't necessary I told her it was okay but they insisted so I have lunch tomorrow.. yum. I have driven there just for a macs Philly cheesesteak and it's always worth it. And customer service is over the top... read more

Mac's is a staple in Canandaigua. It's often on the short list for dinner options when we go out. It's consistently delicious, no matter what you order. Beef, chicken, salad with either on top - amazing. The bread is to die for. It's perfect for containing the meat/cheese/onion mixture of your choice. And the French fries. I want to order their Buffalo chicken Philly on top of the fries. I've never attempted. But I know it would be out of this world. Friendly, accommodating staff and clean restaurant and bathroom. Don't change, Mac's! read more

Great food. Classic foods, yummy for the tummy! Great prices too. Only suggestion is that I wouldn't dine in, better luck with the take out. They weren't attentive at all, forgot my boyfriends fries, creamer (three times), to go box, and we had to ask for refills when another server was pouring for her tables. I requested cottage cheese for a starter, she forgot it- when I reminded her, it was left in the window. Got it towards the end of my meal and it was room temperature. However, the owner stepped up and tried to fix the issue. They comp'ed the meal, tipped the original bill, at the end of the day the food was good and the owner was great. I just recommend that they two people work the floor so they have ONE person work the window. Seems all the issues were lack of communication, who is where and doing what/running what and so on. read more

Mac's in Canandaigua is usually in my top 3 when trying to figure out where to go to eat. I love their Buffalo Chicken Cheesesteaks and I'm not sure what they do to their french fries but I doubt it's legal. They have a great menu and a lot of other items to choose from, like other sandwiches and salads. It's especially good for those looking for something outside of the Cheesesteak realm. I've talked to a lot of people who say they "Don't like Cheesesteaks" and I always tell them that Mac's will have something you like, no doubt. Give it a try, you won't be disappointed! read more

I had to call a few times to get my order placed because it kept saying busy which wasn't a big problem it must mean a lot of people like their food. We had it delivered and it took an hour which was also fine if you aren't super hungry. Once it arrived the food was hardly warm but it was still good. The delivery driver and whoever took our call was friendly though. read more

I am a bonafide cheese steak snob. I went to college in Philadelphia, and have since been of the opinion you can't get a good cheese steak outside of the Philly area. Mac's is the first place I have been outside of Philly that makes a true Philadelphia cheese steak. I will definitely be back. Excellent! Cheers! read more

Huge portions and pretty good cheesesteaks, have ordered multiple times.. worth the try if you like cheesesteaks.

Good food with nice prices. Have had a few Philly Cheesesteaks and Mac's seem to be missing something I cannot put my finger on. They are really good, but not as good as some of the places in Philly that made the cheesesteak famous. The staff was great. They have fountain and bottled drinks. They only had 2 options for chips, but I have been to other locations and they have had more so maybe I caught them on a busy week. Plenty of seating. Very clean. Great location. read more

Ordered out here, so I can't speak to the inside of the place but everything I experienced was great. Got the Philly Steak, which was awesome. Good bread, steak was chopped up perfect & not fatty at all, complimented with some great cheese. Solid sandwich. Order was ready in minutes. Staff was pleasant and friendly too! read more

Having eyed this place for a while, I convinced the wife to stop here for lunch as opposed to the other eateries on Main Street in Canandaigua. I likes me a good cheesesteak. This was not. The place was clean and service was fine. Actually the counter person was very patient and helpful...better than average. The wife and I split their "Cheese Steak with Everything". It was bland and soggy. Even the toppings failed to add any flavor to the sandwich. Seemed to be overpriced once you added drinks and fries. Their only saving grace this meal was their sweet potato fries. They could have had more flavor, but they were cooked to perfection. Given the plethora of options on the main drag, I'd avoid Mac's. read more

Mac's is a great spot in town. Can't beat it for in and out food that you know is going to be good. Sometimes it takes them longer than I expect to get orders out (and they completely forgot a friend's order once), but the food is good enough to ignore it. I always go classic cheesesteak, and they don't skimp on meat like lots of places do. The ratio of cheese to steak is bang on too. Definitely worth it for a casual meal. read more

Delicious food and such a great quantity for the price. Clean restaurant and bathrooms. Definitely worth the stop!

Used door dash to grab lunch other than my chicken bites being a touch over dressed the pickles and cheesesteak Sandwhich was very tasty! Also had a very efficient order in a timely manner! Definitely a place to take another lunch or two at! read more

Best shaved steak place around and very well kept! The place is clean and the employees are VERY welcoming. 10/10 service, 10/10 food. Highly recommend! read more

Every so often we take a road trip from Buffalo to Canandaigua *just* to get Mac's. So yeah, it's pretty good. I am a fan of the chicken Philly with cheese and bacon, personally. read more

Mac's Philly Steaks - Chicken cheese steak with bacon at Mac's. Yum! - American Near Me - Canandaigua, New York

Excellent flavor on the Garlic parmesan philly steak and the sweet potato fries were crispy with sugar and salt. It was a great lunch. Glad to see additional locations around the area. Love the rewards program! read more

Extremely clean, the woman behind the counter was cleaning everything when we walked in. We ordered a foot-long chicken Philly to split and when we received it as steak, they remade the sandwich immediately. I actually eat red meat whereas my partner does not, so we asked them only to remake half for him, but they remade the whole thing and now we have an entire sandwich (his beef half and a new chicken half) to bring home, on them. They insisted. Excellent service and they were so kind and quick about it. Highly recommend. read more

This is an old review, but still appropriate. Once upon a time, Mac's was a godsend for 2 lonely brothers from South Jersey. My pops retired to a beautiful little lake cabin on Lake Keuka. Eventually cancer caught up with him and he ended up passing on in the spring of 08. Me and little bro ended up spending the summer up at the lake cabin, reminiscing and getting Pop's affairs in order. Mac's was like a godsend, a little slice of home in the middle of nowhere. I cannot tell you how many times we made the 30+ minute drive from Penn Yan to Canandaguia for a few steaks. ALWAYS on point-and great friendly employees. Back then they gave you coupons, like buy 10 steaks get one for free. Needless to say we got a few freebies. Not the best steak in the Finger Lakes, the ONLY AUTHENTIC steak in the Finger Lakes. Take it from a self-appointed expert! Mac's Rules! read more

The first thing I noticed was how clean the place was! The food and service was even better. The BEST philly cheese steak, great salads, awesome kid meal choices, etc. It's a must stop in town! read more

Was only in town for a week and went to Mac's three days in a row because the Island Pork Wrap was that good. Right on the main road through Canandaigua. Next time I would make sure to try an actual cheese steak. read more

, I have gone here for years.. I have only had the steak sub,but it is the best in the area. I have traveled up to 45 min just to get one of these subs. They offer a rewards type program were they give you little green tickets. You collect 12 and get a free 8 inch sub..parking can be tricky. They are on a main high way but if you do not mind a walk there is side street parrking. I have most always been lucky to get front parking. Visit order enjoy fast hot fresh food.. read more

Danny was absolutely wonderful on 4/13/20. She was very pleasant while taking my order for curb side pick up and was very understanding of what I was ordering! She mentioned she normally works at a different location but didn't hesitate to ask her coworkers a question if she didn't know the answer! I appreciate how nice and understanding she was! And during these tough times people on the front line need to be appreciated too! So thank you Danny & mac philly steaks! You guys rock! read more

I have to disagree with the other 2 reviews. Everyone is entitled to their opinion but i really liked this place. I liked their cheesesteak so much i ordered one to go. My wife who is very picky really enjoyed this place as well. very quick with the food. I felt the cheeseteak was dead on from what i have eaten before. will def be goin again! read more

This place is absolutely amazing, lots of different options and sides, prices are definitely reasonable! Fast service, delicious food

Was decent but was better when I was there last year. Ordered a "special" but still seemed to pay more for some reason. May try again to give second chance. read more

This place is awesome I would rated 10 out of 10 best fish fry I've had in years best Philly steak I've had in years a true winner of a restaurant read more

Ya just gotta love Mac's. I would love to try several other menu items but the Philly Steak Plate and the fish fry are both so good that I never get past them. Consistently good. read more

One of my favorite places to eat. Don't have much to say except you won't be disappointed. The rolls are great, I think they get them from philly. The cheesesteaks are great but my go to is the buffalo chicken philly. It is so good. read more

Mac's is absolutely phenomenal. Their food is delicious, the portions are outrageous, and the prices are more than fair. For those who complain on here that it's not an "authentic philly cheese steak", please relax. YOU ARE NOT IN PHILLY. I've been to Philly, had their best, and Mac's is just as good. The owner runs a good business. The dining area is clean and inviting, the staff is always friendly and accommodating, and the coupons they give out with every order is a great customer appreciation strategy that increases customer retention. Needless to say, I'm a fan! read more

I, for one, really liked my cheesesteak, so deliciously greasy and spiked with hot peppers.

As far as quick and casual dining goes, Mac's is one of my favorite places in Canandaigua. I always get the 8" philly cheesesteak combo which comes with a side (french fries, chips, etc) and a drink for around $9.00. The cheesesteak is loaded with chopped steak and is really flavorful. The fries are the good kind - Not your flavorless frozen fries. In addition, the service has always been above and beyond friendly, helpful, and polite. If you're in the area, make sure to check Groupon or LivingSocial because Mac's always has a deal! They also have a loyalty program where you get a coupon for each cheesesteak you order and when you collect 12, you get a free one. Who doesn't like free food?! read more

Would like to see a cheese sauce on the basic cheesesteak, but the sandwhich was fresh and the place was clean.

So if you're looking for an authentic Philly Cheesesteak, South Philly is only 5 and 1/2 hours away from Canandaigua by car. Otherwise, if you just want to stay in town and have a good lunch, head over to Mac's, which is the only place I am aware of that does a garbage plate using Philly steak. They also deliver. Tip: If you are ever in South Philly and can't decide between Pat's or Geno's, I must admit that despite my conservative political leanings(which many would assume would endear me to Geno's), Pat's definitely has the best cheesesteak, IMHO. Trust me, order it "inside-out, extra-wit", you'll love it! Regardless of which place you choose, just remember, a good Philly cheesesteak is all in the Cheez Whiz. read more

Loved it. Extra ketchup meat and cheese. Nice people working. If I'm ever in town again, I'll stop in. Good stuff

Amazing cheesesteaks, fries are really tasty they have a seasoning on them that taste great. Will be going back again.

A little pricey but well worth it for the quality of the food. The gentleman at register brought us our food because it wasn't busy, not many will do that. Tables are clean. Bathroom was clean. Cozy place to go on a cold day in the fall or winter and watch a football game while eating. read more

I love Mac's! The bread is phenomenal and the cheesesteak is yummy too. Service is always friendly. I earned my free cheesesteak in less than 2 months which means we ate there a lot!! The Mac salad is also good. I only wish that they served coke products instead of Pepsi :) read more

I wouldn't even put 1 star to rate this place. First time there, and the girl was so rude, i asked her for a refund and all she said was "no that's what you ordered". Honestly I've never seen a place with non-refundable policy. At least could've said that we can reorder for that price or get the money back or something. All i got from this place is bitchy attitude, poor service and not fresh salad without a dressing. read more

If you love a good cheesesteak and don't feel like driving to Philly, then this is your place. They are located in both downtown Canandaigua and Geneva. The service and servers are terrific, even with the lunch rush, they are able to get you your sub in no time at all. Everything I have tried there has been well above average to YUMMY! read more
