Garbage Found In Food – Monday, August 6th, I took my elderly mother and my daughter out to dinner to the Macaroni Grill in Elk Grove, CA. We all three ordered the same meal (Shrimp Portofino). I found an old cigarette butt, leaves, dirt and garbage in all three of our meals. I have launched a complaint with the County Health Dept and have also contacted and reported this to Macaroni Grill's corporate office. I received a call from the district office's manager and was told that he had conducted an investigation at the resta... read more

Service is horrible! – Like most of the reviewers here, My b/f and I had a gift card and I had a pleasurable experience coming to this restaurant in another state. So we thought, what the hell. We had a show to go to at 10pm so we thought having a reservation at 8pm would suffice. Boy, were we wrong! We get there at about 15 minutes before the reservation and waited for about 30 minutes.

all i miss is the pork chop – all of the food are just too salty. we had a group of 12 persons. believe it or not, all the food are just too salty (pasta, salmon.....). But i found this place is quite interesting. I did not have the bad service experience like the other reviews. But i definately will try to eat the pork chop again to confirm it is from the cook or it's just me. by the way, the whole place is kind of dark. take some times for us to adjust to the eyes and read the menu. i guess it's supposed to be romantic... ... read more

Worse servive ever – If I could give a negative rating, I would. We waited 45 minutes to be seated, despite having a reservation. The waitress repeatedly forgot our drinks and orders. The chicken canollenni did not have any chicken at all. My chicken marsala tasted microwaved. But worse of all, the manager was incredibly rude. I don't have enough space here to go into details, but DO NOT GO TO MAC GRILL if you value quality service.

not too bad – we found the food to be okay good if you're craving italian and you're already there, but it can get really crowded
