    Service can be slow but the food is pretty consistent. Love the Brussels. Mad mac bites can be overly greasy. French dip sandwich is very good.

    Unseasoned Cajun Shrimp & Crab Mac!
    Mustang M.

    The place has a nice ambience. TV's all over the walls and nice bar area. The waiter was prompt and attentive. I ordered the Cajun Shrimp and Crab meat Mac and it was disappointing. No Cajun or season at all and the most disappointing is the lack of meat portions. I had 3 shrimps and barely any crab meat.

    Jerk chicken
    Bernadette S.

    I've always heard about this place and finally tried it out. I thought the mad Mac bites were disappointing. What I truly enjoyed was their jerk chicken. It was well marinated but slightly overcooked. It would have been nice if it came with mashed potatoes instead of baked beans... or if they had an option to sub out the baked beans. Resto was really spacious and the outdoor dining was nice as there were electric fans around and televisions too. The server was really nice and checked in on us occasionally.

    Buffalo Mac by candlelight
    Alyssa M.

    The other day we lost power in Newark and ordered food for delivery from DoorDash from this restaurant. The brussels sprouts were to die for. I also really enjoyed the fact that I could get any of the macaroni and cheeses gluten-free. Tasty food!

    Service not so good. Food overrated. I got the jambalaya Mac and it was just macaroni with andouille sausage ... nothing special. On top of that they charged a 3.5% surcharge for credit card transactions. I'll just deduct from the tip because of surcharge and service.

    Lasagna Mac and 6 Cheese Mac
    Mike A.

    Really enjoyed the Mac and cheese from Mad-Macs. Every time I've driven by this place it's always packed and I've only heard great things about it, and the recommendations did not disappoint. We tried out both the Lasagna Mac and 6-cheese Mac and both were great. They were very generous with the cheese and the size of the meal was also huge, so perfect for a big meal or saving some for later. There was also a lot of variety on the menu that I'll have to go back and try at a later time. In general, happy I finally got to give it a try. Definitely recommend!

    Deep Fried Brownies
    Shayla M.

    I had to check out a place that is known for their Mac and cheese. The parking lot was pretty crowded when I arrived. Mad Mac's is a family friendly pub and serves creative Mac and cheese dishes. I ordered the 6 cheese Mac, wings and deep fried brownies. The Mac and cheese was just okay, did not think it was worth the price. Perhaps the other Mac and cheese flavors are better. The wings had plenty of sauce but did not have a fried wing bite. The best part was the fried brownies even though they forgot to give me my ice cream with my take out order.

    Great lunch today at Grain. We had the potato kegs for an app followed by a Caesar salad with…read morechicken, the birrea grilled cheese and the salmon BLT. I enjoyed the bacon and cheese potato kegs. My wife and I split the BLT and grilled cheese. Hers came with a side salad mine with shoe string fries. My son has the salad. Salmon was very good, it was vodka cured; bloodline and skin removed (+++)! Grain was pretty busy for mid-afternoon on a Sunday. Modern pub/ sports pub feel. Phillies game on the TVs. Music playing. Service was OK. My one pet peeve is allowing servers to leave dirty dishes and empty glasses on the table. And our server, although attentive, did not clear any dishes or glasses. Thank god I don't have epilepsy, the light over our table kept blinking non-stop. Plenty of off street parking for patrons. Lots of varied seating, both indoor and outdoor. See warning sign in my pics (haha). As far as prices, they are in line with any other places, as far as these other reviews that said it is excessively expensive, not true. Lunches are $15-20. Apps are a little pricey. Nice beer selection in the $8 ish range. Forgot I wanted to get a pan dessert, next time. I paid using InKind and got a nice discount.

Not surprising, as on holiday weekends most students go home so the town isn't crowded like a usual week. Service was friendly, fast and attentive. Everyone's meals were very good, except for mine. I made a bad choice. Skip the hot honey chicken over donuts brunch item. Its nothing more than 3 chicken fingers over what tasted like a couple of dry entemann's donuts. (Missed opportunity..theres a greta bakery across the street..should get fresh glazed donuts from them. The donuts ruined the dish. Other meals were very good. Easter quiche special with hollandaise sauce and fried potatoes was delicious, although the size of quiche slices was kind of small. Burrata avocado toast was great, and so was their cheese omelette. It was perfect dining for us as we didn't want a heavy, upscale meal at 1:30 in the afternoon. Will definitely come back next time we are in town for dinner and drinks.

I worked at a farm my whole life only to get a good education at the university of Delaware. Suddenly their noodles were poisoning me and their lettuce was browning like the change from summer to autumn. TBH plz do better the only thing that truly makes me feel a certain way (a good way) is the lovely little flatbread pizza in which I add some olives and tomatoes just for a little treat because treating yourself is what a woman deserves. Anyways, I tend to stay away from all desserts and what not in fear for my life.. stay safe kids. Although the education here is beyond lovely and clarifies much that I have considered and my curiosities have been cured for sure... the food has yet to exceed my expectations.. if anything it is far below the line of good. But the workers r friendly and flirty and makes me feel confident in who I am and who I have grown to be . That farm sure does challenge one to be special.
