Menus Changed – Macaroni Grill used to be my favorite place to get my Italian food fix. Their chicken marsala was the best that I have ever eaten and probably will ever eat. So I used to go there at least once a month to get my favorite meal. I went last night and I ordered my usual. When they brought me the plate my heart sank. A huge disappointment. They have completely dumbed down their whole menu and made the quality of their food a lot cheaper. Now it is bland and not good tasting. The portions are much smaller now and ... read more

Avoid on friday nights – I went there wid a couple of friends friday nite around 8pm and was pleasantly surprised to find that there was no waiting! I ordered a new item on menu - Ravioli and it was horrible. The sauce that was used all watery and tasted like milk. I love to eat raviolis at any italian restaurant and this just spoiled my appetite forever it seems... arrghhh.. I have been to this place before and I have loved it otherwise. The servers in a hurry to lock up the restaurant. I like quick service but as soon as I... read more

Incredible food, great bargain, and wonderful service. – My husband and I went on our second date here and it was a wonderful experience. The food was phenomenal and the service was great. I get the same thing when I go, now: the create-a-pasta dish with spinach, artichokes, and mushrooms with penne pasta and their garlic cream sauce. It's to die for! Also, calimari is fantastic, so is the artichoke dip. And, I really don't like fried mozarella, but their's is really great. It's more of a chunk of cheese as opposed to a litt... read more

Best Italian around – I don't care that it's a chain, I swear this place has the best Italian food around. Piping hot bread served up to start, wine by the jug based on honor system, and of course the waiter writing their name upside down on your paper table cloth in crayon just adds to the festive experience. You have to order the Penne Rustica, but not more than once a week. It is rich, hot, and oh so good.

Enjoyed my lunch. – I had lunch here last week and was really pleased with both the service and food. This chain is generally unpredictable, but my one experience with this location was completely positive. Ill definitely be back. While we were there a waiter sang Happy Birthday in Italian to a table. What an amazing voice!

food doesnt make up for service – Went on 4th of July and it was decidedly dead, but it still took awhile to get our food and we were not pleased with the service. The bellini was excellent but there was nothing especially italiany about the italian margarita. The artichoke dip appetizer was runny and only average, and the toast that came with it was far too salty. Main courses were no more than ok...the halibut was fine but the pesto orzo was bland, the pasta milano was good, but was less than impressed w/ the classic trio.... read more

Service? – I went with my wife last Saturday night (about 9), we were seated at a nice table and... they totally forgot about us!!! A waiter never came to ask what we wanted to drink, we had to waitresses walking past less than 15 feet away but never noticed our waiving trying to call their attention. Finally we left anf they didn't even notice.
