MCR is always a treat. The staff are perfect, kept the food come'n as the family scarf'd it down. I believe Karen was our server, she's golden in my book, fast and super friendly, both the g-kids and adults remarked how well she took care of our family night out dinner. Thanks Karen, and MCR for a great family event...going back soon!

Neat eatery nestled up against the Superstition Mountains. Old gold mining-era feel. The food was great. Literally every person's dish was spot on! Coming back for sure!
