Twisted Mac - Combo of BBQ Brisket Mac and Cheese with fries - New American Near Me - Carmichael, California

We love this place and I'm so glad it opened up an easy drive from our house. I personally travel for work and when I get home from a trip, I want something fast, I want something good, and honestly I want something that feels more like home; but I definitely don't want to cook. Twisted Mac hits that right on the target for me. What is a better definition of comfort food? We're both kind of locked onto the Brisket at this point but have had a few others before that such as the Truffle and the Cacio e Pepe which were all great. Excited to see they're doing specials now. People are very friendly. Place is clean. Cheese cubes are quite entertaining and as another person implied, creepy. Hope we got a keeper here. read more

Great spot with plenty of parking, which already makes the visit easy and stress-free. From the moment I walked in, the place was clean and well-kept. Kenny welcomed us warmly and took the time to walk us through the menu, which made the experience feel very personal and inviting. We ordered the buffalo mac & cheese, pesto mac & cheese, and cacio e pepe mac & cheese, all with chicken added. We also tried the mac & cheese bites. Everything came out fresh, hot, and flavorful. The buffalo mac was my favorite--perfect kick from the buffalo sauce paired with the creamy mac and crispy chicken. My husband really enjoyed the cacio e pepe for its rich, peppery flavor. The pesto mac was also really good with a nice balance of creaminess, basil, and freshness from the tomatoes and mozzarella. The mac & cheese bites were crispy on the outside, soft inside, and paired really well with the truffle alfredo sauce. Portion sizes are huge--we definitely had leftovers for the next few days, which is always a win. Overall, great food, friendly service, and generous portions. Would definitely come back again. read more

It was hard to decide what to pick but decided to get the brisket Mac bowl. It was amazing a still hot when I got home. The portion was a lot so I definitely have at least 2 more meals. There were crunchy onion rings on top which added a nice touch. I'm definitely going back to try the spicy chicken bowl as it was a hard choice between the 2. read more

Tried twisted Mac today. I was pleasantly surprised that it was pretty good most of the bowls are $12.99 with the exception of the brisket Mac. We tried the Nashville chicken Mac and the pesto Mac and it was pretty good. I would advise to let it cool off before digging in. It is hot and as it cools the cheese thickens. Fried mac and cheese balls are the bomb! Owner was very kind. The space was clean. They also have subs and pizza so I will be back to try more. Someone had fried and those looked good. Also you get a lot for the price we still took some home and had it with dinner. read more

Best Mac and Cheese I've had since I was a kid. There is a brisket Mac and cheese! They also have pizzas they make as well as some sandwiches. Owner is very nice and staff are always friendly. The store has some amazing music and it's a chill place to be. They also are very cool with people who want to come in and game (MTG or Pokemon). read more

I finally got to personally visit Twisted Mac, the new restaurant located within the Crestview Village shopping center. I stopped by earlier today to see about ordering a Mac and cheese casserole for a potluck for later. I was happily welcomed by the manager, Russell. He was able to put together a large order of their smoked macaroni and cheese and stated everything is made from scratch and made to order. I noticed there were a lot of Jr. High kids there, and they said they enjoyed hanging out there to get an after-school snack too. I returned later in the afternoon to pick up my order. I am not usually a macaroni and cheese person, but this dish was delicious and does not even compare to the boxed macaroni and cheese. read more

Found this place on a whim when my friend and I were looking for somewhere new to eat. And who doesn't LOVE mac & cheese??? It's located in a very unassuming spot in the shopping center, right next to Big 5. The location could use a bigger sign for awareness. When we walked in we were immediately greeted by the gentleman behind the counter. There were a couple of people waiting for what looked like to-go orders. The overall ambiance is quaint and very clean. They also have s couple of tables outside. We asked the employee for a recommendation as well as his favorite item, and he said it was the BBQ Brisket Mac & Cheese. My friend went for that option while I ordered the Pesto Mac & Cheese. Both were delicious. We liked the addition of the pickles in the Brisket Mac & Cheese. My Pesto Mac & Cheese also came with chicken and had great flavor! The portions are big... we both took our leftovers home with us. I will definitely go back so I can try some other items on the menu! read more

I just tried twisted Mac. The food here is absolutely delicious. I had the barbecue brisket, mac & cheese and barbecue chicken mac & cheese. I would absolutely recommend this new restaurant. It's right next to big five on Manzanita. There is just a tiny little sign above the door. You have to really look for it but it's worth it. The Owner Russell was super nice. read more

Looking on yelp for someplace new to eat. This place popped up. MAC n CHEESE restaurant?! We're in! 8 minute drive. The owner was absolutely amazing. Great customer service. Asked questions about how we found them. Gave us free drinks and Mac n cheese balls. The cashier was nice, but couldn't help us figure out how to pronounce certain menu items which really was not a good look for a new restaurant. We felt dumb. Now the food. The brisket was really good. The cheese sauce on the noodles was more like soup. Not a unique or distinctive cheese flavor either. We took it home and added some pepper, shredded cheese and bbq. Made it better. The Cacio e Pepe again had a thin cheese sauce. There was no pepper flavor and due to the thin sauce there was no distinction with the multiple cheeses purported to be there. We took that home and doctored it as well. There was a weird squishy cheese block to play with on the tables but then I got skeeved out by how many people have touched it with their hands and immediately stopped playing with it. There did not appear to be any condiments like pepper, salt, hot sauce (it's macncheese; hot sauce is required). Overall, the service was great but the food would not bring us back. I hope the owner takes some feedback and makes some improvements cause there's potential for greatness. read more

Happy a new place opened! Very good and the staff was friendly got the mac n cheese bites, cauliflower mac n cheese and the brisket mac n cheese it was all very good. Lots of food too for under $40 for 2 people. Will get 2 meals out of it! We will be back read more

This is a good lunch place to take the youngsters as in those in the family under the age of 21 and its known they are picky eaters. The best dishes are the macaroni and cheese. The meat ball sandwiches are filling and have good flavor. Any picky eaters out there can now know they will enjoy their lunch. I have been to this spot, the El Cerrito spot and South Bay spot in Milpitas. Each location the food is good. I really enjoyed my meat ball sandwich. read more

my wife and I ordered a couple of sandwiches online When I arrived to pick and my order wasn't quite ready and even though I was likely early, the owner insisted on giving me a free drink. Then when my order was ready and when he read my order, I realized I had ordered one of the sandwiches incorrectly and they made me a new sandwich, the one I had intended, free of charge. wow. on top of the outstanding service, the sandwiches are very big and delicious. we can't wait to go back! read more

Tried Twisted Mac tonight and it did NOT disappoint! We ordered the cheeseburger mac, classic mac & cheese, buffalo mac, barbecue brisket mac & cheese, and mac & cheese bites -- all absolutely delicious. On top of the amazing food, the atmosphere was great too -- super welcoming and a fun place to hang out. Definitely a spot we'll be coming back to. Highly recommend if you're a mac & cheese lover! read more

Absolute garbage... I'm guessing by the low review count, the reviews are just all their friends and family. I should have known better. I got the brisket Mac... brisket was dry, not good and it was absolutely SMOTHERED in bbq sauce which absolutely ruined the taste of the Mac. My son got the "cheeseburger Mac" (apparently) which just looked like ground turkey... maybe got the wrong order?? Either way he had two bites and asked if he had to eat anymore. My other son got the chicken tender kids meal. Thinly breaded, soggy and super salty. We got the parm fries too- Dry as hell and ZERO flavor. My wife got the pizza which was also unbelievably soggy and salty. And all that for a ReAsOnAbLe $82... never again... these people with 5 star reviews ARE SMOKING CRACK. One of the worst meals I've had in a long time. Such a bummer because we were really hoping this place was going to be good. read more

Yummy mac! I prefer my Mac creamy over dry and crispy. Twisted Mac definitely delivered. We got the cacio a pepe, spicy calabrese, brisket, and my friend took home a new pesto chicken they were testing out. My partner said he would have liked a bit more meat in the brisket bowl, but I can imagine that would jump the price WAY up. So, I felt the pricing seemed fair for how much they gave in the bowls. But it also means we probably won't order the brisket again because of that. Still giving them 5 stars because the overall restaurant was clean, welcoming, and it's a great spot to sit and chat while enjoying a casual meal. read more

Nice staff , no ambiance in the restaurant . I ordered a sausage and pepper submarine to go. I live 10 min away . When I took it out to eat it I was disappointed. The roll was soft and made the sandwich mushy . The ingredients ( sausage and slices of bell pepper were greasy . It only had a few pieces of red bell pepper on it . I took a bite and found that the sausage was not fully cooked as it was pink inside . I took it out of the roll and zapped it in the microwave. It was not Italian sausage so the taste was bla. Cost was $14.06 . I doubt I will go back to try anything else . For me , I will not go back for more read more

I noticed this place just opened up in the shopping center by my house, so I came by to try it out. Im a little torn on the rating, between a 3 and 4, so I went with the 4 because it was good. Me and my wife got the truffle Mac and cheese. The cheese sauce and consistency of the Mac and cheese was really good, no complaints. This is where they lost me. It says in the description that is has bread crumbs, like a lot of specialty Mac and cheee does, but the problem is, they don't use bread crumbs. They use crushed up croutons. I did not enjoy the croutons at all. They might have been good and crunchy when they put them in there, but with the heat and steam of the Mac and cheese, and the closed lid, it changes the texture of them. It didn't become soggy, but it definitely had a stale taste to it. As of now, if I were to come back, I would definitely order without the croutons. My daughter ordered the kids classic Mac and cheese, and she had the same problem. Except she just didn't want to eat it because of the croutons. We also ordered a pepperoni pizza. The pizza looks amazing and the crust I would say was pretty good, but the sauce tasted like some spaghetti sauce right out of the jar. That's really all I could taste. Now they do have an amazing home made ranch. I think their menu has a lot of potential, but those couple things I named were enough to not come back unless changed. Im am leaving a good star rating, because I think what they do good, is really good. read more

We thought it would be better. We had the cheeseburger macaroni and the cauliflower bites. You get big portions. The people are nice but the food seemed too rich for our taste. We did not eat the macaroni. Ate like half the bites. And they put on the receipt that we were a doordash driver. Macaroni grill is great and it said they were under macaroni grill. read more
