Went here twice and it never disappoints! I got the Godness Mac and flavors bursted into my mouth! Very creamy and garlicky. Received a 10 dollar off card for my next purchase. I am overall satisfied! read more

The employee at the window was extremely rude. He was having a conversation with his friends and acknowledged me and my boyfriend, and then proceeded to ignore us for a couple of minutes and then walk away after telling us to order. That plus the food making us sick makes this a definite DONT VISIT. As a mac and cheese lover PLEASE don't waste your money! It looks waay better than it is! Presentation is there, the flavor is not:( You could definitely make WAY BETTER mac & cheese for yourself at home. Hell even KFC's mac is better! So serious about that! The mac & cheese was insanely bland and the service was horrible. The employee got irritated with us when we were ordering and he made sure to let us know! I have worked in customer service for over seven years and this is honestly one of the worst ways I've been treated while ordering. It was my first time there and I still knew what I wanted, but he was so rude and pushy we should've just left! Side note: I understand I got "The Basic" but even basic Mac should have good flavor and this was not even cheesy. Somehow you can't even taste the cheese0_0 astonished and disappointed! I literally added crushed up cheezits and BBQ sauce at home and STILL couldn't choke this down! Mac & cheese is literally my favorite food so that's pretty bad mac man read more

MAC’D - The #Basic - New American Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Ordered online, payment went through. Drove 20 minutes to get there on my lunch hour. Got there to pick up, there's a "Be back at 12:30" sign on the window. Waited and waited well past 12:30. Nobody shows up to open the place. Tried calling. NO ANSWER. Go back to my car to leave and see a young man at the pik-nik table out back. I asked the young man if he knew what was up? If he knew when they would be opening up? He said "Probably later in the afternoon, as they were having equipment delivered and installed." Had to get back to work. No lunch for me today. So much for trying to support "local business". Ugh! read more

I have had their mac before, and it's really good. Tonight I had a horrible experience. DoorDash drivers were all standing in front of the window, and the person working the window ignored me to serve the drivers first. 10 minutes of this was enough. I'll think twice before spending my money where a physical customer is ignored!!! read more

Is it expensive? Yes. It is. For macaroni and cheese, which is traditionally poverty food, spending between $17 and $25 on a bowl of macaroni and cheese might sound absurd. HOWEVER - This is very different than your box of Kraft. This is more like the kind of macaroni and cheese that you get at Thanksgiving. Ooey, gooey, and oh so good. The add-ins create endless options for an infinite number of creations. And truth be told, you could probably split one of these damn things four ways. Then you would all be in for like five or six bucks. But for me, I like to get a bowl all to myself, eat about a third of it at midnight when I'm craving it. Then, the next day, I'll have the next third for breakfast with a fried egg over it. And then I'll have the remainder for lunch. So I've basically sustained myself for 24 hours for 20 bucks and it's bloody delicious. By the way, I heartily recommend the chicken nugget add-on. I'm not even that huge of a chicken fan myself, but oh my god I love these chicken nuggets. They're tender and juicy and full of flavor and they're the perfect little protein bomb on top of that big fat bowl starch to make it feel like an actual balance meal. Of course the pulled pork is also a good choice for the same reason, but whereas I have had plenty of other pulled pork that was just as good or better I literally have never had a better chicken nugget than here at Mac'd read more

Their Mac n cheese is so freaking good guys. Portion is big too so you will definitely get a couple meals out of it. Also it comes nice and hot! read more

MAC’D - The Pinkies - New American Near Me - Portland, Oregon

I got the basic and it was the definition of mid. I was honestly expecting a lot better, it was just slightly tastier than boxed Mac and cheese. The shells were super small and the add ons were so expensive. read more

MAC’D - The #Basic - New American Near Me - Portland, Oregon

I got the basic. Can't go wrong with a basic Mac n cheese...or so I thought. It was literally noodles (overcooked) with some cheese sprinkled on top. The cheese didn't even get to the bottom noodles. It had zero flavor. I even added my own salt and still couldn't eat it. Cheese and crackers for dinner instead. read more

Cheesy goodness and everybody and the flavors are kicking, and I love the garlic and cheesy one called the goddess. Tried this place for the first time and I was really impressed with it and really enjoyed the flavors and what not and they have a large variety so I'm interested in trying the other one especially the pesto. Haven't been to the location, but I'm curious to see what it looks like. read more

This spot slaps. The mac and cheese is insanely good -- creamy, cheesy, crispy on top, and made with actual love. Jose is the MVP. Friendly, fast, and clearly passionate about the food. He recommended the "Goddess" and it changed my life a little. I'll be dreaming about it every day until I come back. read more

Food was delicious. Paid 27 for Mac and cheese and fríes. Fríes were fresh and everything came out quickly

This place is extremely overpriced especially for onion rings that came out a frozen bag. Absolutely zero taste, if you want good onion rings that homemade I'd recommend going to Sayler's off SE Stark St it's worth it, and two dipping sauces for 5 and some change, give me a break. Kinda ridiculous if you ask me. As an amateur food critic I would definitely work on the food quality that comes out of that kitchen. read more

We have been regulars here for the past year even though it's a 30 min drive from where I live. The quality is excellent and consistent, and the service is great. There are picnic tables for outdoor seating, but the aluminum containers are great at keeping your mac warm if you take it to go. My favorite: Hellapeno with shells, jalapeños, tomatoes, topped with BBQ pulled pork. It's the perfect mix of sweet and spicy. My husband loves the Buffalo with shells and chicken, topped with panko and hot Cheetos. The perfect mix of spicy and spicy. They also have vegan and gluten free options! The portions are huge, so it's enough for two meals. read more

It seems to me the majority of places I go to get food nowadays get something wrong with the order. It's such a bummer. can't say that about MAC'D. I order, and I get what I paid for. On top of that it's delicious with large portions. Spectacular. Thank you. read more

My partner and I first came here in 2019, it was one of the most incredible Mac and cheese experiences we'd ever had. We recently travelled to Portland with this place in mind, and unfortunately it seems to have taken a massive turn. The shells are tiny and unappetizing. Bacon add on is an extra $3 and I had 3 bites with bacon in them (not an exaggeration). Overall the food was super bland, and has taken a massive turn since we had first gone here. We were both so excited to come back, but it was super disappointing and expensive. read more

This place is good. Not the best I've had but still quite tasty. I got the basic Mac and cheese and the smallest piece of cake I've ever been served. The mac and cheese was tasty and seasoned a bit. I imagine with some more toppings it would be even better. The lemoncello cake tasted amazing! But it was literally the smallest piece of cake I've ever been served anywhere. I'd go there again. read more

While the mac is of course is amazing these are hands down the best Brussels I have ever had! I go the honey sriracha but also want to try the aioli one and have a sneaking suspicion they would be great together Huge portions, wish they did like a sampler option for those of use who have a cheese addition and want to try like a few bites of each. Best part is the staff know how to package for to go. I drove 45 min to come here and they knew I would have the long drive home so they made sure they were piping hot. By the time I got home they were the perfect temp! Also make amazing leftovers it we ate the Brussels in like two minutes flat read more

One of my favorite places to go. I love the creative freedom and how I can always go back and get something new. It isn't easy on the stomach, but the flavor is SOO worth it. read more

Amazing, portions are overflowing and you really get the bang for your buck, all the onion rings were fried to perfection and the Dr Pepper was extremely crisp, I really recommend if you feel large and need a good pick me up. Also the ranch is amazing it pairs wonderfully with the onion rings the service was quick and polite 10/10 would recommend will be coming again. read more

MAC'D is serving up some decent mac & cheese in Portland! We ordered via GrubHub - super easy process. You can order the base (i.e., "The Pesto", "The Vegan") and add additional items (i.e., chicken, broccoli, hot cheetos topping). We got the Basic and Goddess. Cooked perfectly. Nicely baked. I do like my food heavily seasoned so I added a little more salt. I like that they included utensils, because I often order from places that don't offer utensils and napkins which can be problematic and messy depending on what is ordered. If you opt to pick up your order, there's a small parking lot in the back. The area always looks a bit empty so hopefully we can continue to support the local eateries there! read more

If you're looking for very cheesy mac and cheese, here's your place. The mac and cheese items I ordered were drenched in cheese so that every bite had the nice cheese pull. The items were the Basic ($12.75) and the Goddess ($12.75), which had the choices of customized ingredients such as: bacon, chicken, corn, peas, roasted mushrooms and broccoli, jalapenos, parmesan shavings, and truffle oils. The mac and cheese are served in aluminum pans, which keep them very hot. They use shredded cheese blends that seem to combine sharp and white cheddar to have the distinct cheese taste. There's also some spice blends mixed into the macaroni to give a tasty flavor instead of bland pasta. This location is located an an area with other fast food storefronts and there is a private parking lot behind the building. read more

This is some seriously good Mac. I will confess that as a parent of a toddler my relationship with Mac and cheese has waned a bit. It's hard to find something that the kid will eat but actually has flavor. My southern go to is too sharp so I actually had kind of given up the hunt. This Mac is just about perfect. I got the meat lovers. My only complaint is the medium of serving. If this was a sit down restaurant I'd get this every time. However as take out it gets a little tricky to eat. The short rib is tender but not really so much so that you can mash it with a fork somewhat uniformly. The pulled pork was amazing and my only regret was not rationing it out so I could have some With every bite. My wife got the goddess and was making all sorts of yum noises. She added mushrooms and peas. Props for the free veggie adds. The kid was a fan of the basic. Cheesy and creamy. Interesting but not too sharp. Did I also mention that if you tried to eat a whole order, unless your agenda included a large amount of napping, you'd be in a bad way. I like it. The Brussels were really good too and survived a trip. Perfect combo with the honey sriracha sauce. I'm sure the fries were good at some time but they didn't make the trip. We'll be back. Hopefully the kid will crave Mac soon. read more

MAC’D - The Meat Lover - New American Near Me - Portland, Oregon

I absolutely love this place. I first had MAC'D at their San Francisco location, and when I moved to Portland and saw they had one here, I was stoked. I've been a few times, for to-go and via DoorDash. Every time I've gotten it's been great except this last time. I always get the goddess with hot Cheetos and green onions. When I opened it this last time, there were no green onions and the noodles were so dry it's like they barely put any cheese/sauce on them. Usually it's completely coated in everything. I've also gotten the pesto one, it was great too! I will still be back because I love this place, but it was very disappointing last time! read more

We've passed this place plenty of times and have wanted to try it out. The portion size equals out to the price, they are huge! Two bowls is enough for a family of four. The kids loved their basic and love that they can put hot cheeto powder on it! It was delicious! My partner and I couldn't finish our portion even when we shared one bowl. Overall it's a great place for comfort food, and def worth checking out. We'll be back in the future to check out their other dishes read more

My husband convinced me to eat Mac'd tonight when I really wanted to eat something else. He has always loved the food and has been numerous times over the years without issue. Once we received our to go entrees, my husband looked everything over before we left. He found the brisket side we ordered was majority fat and brought it to the attention of the merchant. They did not care, basically laughed it off and didn't take our concern seriously whatsoever. Terrible customer service! Not only was there an issue with what they were serving us but then a shitty attitude and unwillingness to make it right. We won't be going back. Save your money, yall, it ain't worth it! read more

I met the owner back in like 2020 maybe 2021. He had just opened Mac'd and he was in the kitchen cooking! This was a very humble introduction, first of all. I ordered the goddess Mac I believe, and it's the best Mac I've ever had. I guess you can say I had been Mac'd. The Mac is amazing! I remember after that first time I would be revisiting. It was incredible! Well flash forward to tonight, I had it for my second time ever and I introduced it to my grandma and husband. I got the pinkies, my husband got the Buffalo and Gma got the basic. ALL were fantastic! I loved the Buffalo, it was so so good. I'll probably get that next time. My grandma loved the different add/in options. She found it unique and interesting. We ordered off grub-hub and my grandma and I both agreed it was the fastest delivery of food we had ever had! 10/10 coming again! My grandma and husband are now MAC'D read more

MAC'D is still operating during Covid and offering delivery via Grubhub, Postmates, Uber Eats, and Caviar. For $12+ you can get yourself a super customized bowl of mac & cheese in less than 45 mins. Back in the Bay Area I was a fan of Homeroom and their gilroy garlic mac and cheese so I definitely needed to try MAC'D "The Goddess" A HUGE pro for MAC'D is their variety of their bases, unlimited mix-ins and toppings ranging from $0-$3 ranging from bacon, shrimp, chicken, broccoli, jalapenos, corn, etc. I'm a fan of the classic elbow so with my Goddess I ended up topping it with truffle oil, bacon, and panko bread crumbs and yum! So simple and satisfying. Would recommend this combo since it also ended up being two meals for me. The only thing I would probably change is not having melted cheese on top of my bowl but just have it mixed in with the sauce. No worries if you are vegan since they do have options to have a cauliflower base, vegan cheese, and plenty of veggies. Solid restaurant option for a quick, affordable, and tasty meal delivered! read more

I ordered take out for my first experience. Mainly because I'm at work and my coworker insisted on the greatness of this place. I was scared it was going to be overhyped but MAC'D did not disappoint! Every bite was delicious cheesy goodness that just had me saying mmmmm every time! The cheese was stringy and the dish was so flavorful. I had the Bougie and added bacon. I loved that you could customize your Mac and add all the toppings. My coworkers all ordered different variations but one in particular had the shrimp. She said next time she probably won't get shrimp, we mainly questioned the freshness and same with crab (so we did not order crab) she said the shrimp was good but not anything she would order again. I have not been to the location but I hear it's a walk up window and has outside seating available. Our takeout was still warm when delivered, portions are good sized and worth what I paid. Go eat here! Food coma was worth it read more

Was in Portland for some shopping and fun. My son has a Mac and cheese fetish so I was looking for the best Mac and cheese options Portland had to offer. We ended up making a stop at a food truck that was closed. I got on Yelp and found this place and saw the reviews. Based off of the reviews and the pictures I was sure this was going to be the best Mac and cheese we ever had from a food establishment. Unfortunately that wasn't the case. As for customer service, they are very kind and helpful with taking your order. We ordered the basic Mac and cheese. It came out hot and ready! And looked so delicious! Literally could not wait to try it!! The truth is that it's okay, I believe with more salt and garlic that this would probably be some of the best street Mac and cheese! It is definitely cheesy!! But cheesy doesn't mean good. It just means cheesy. We added salt to ours and it helped a bit. I would recommend this place for someone who is on a restricted sodium intake because it is still good quality. Just a little low on the seasonings. read more

MAC’D - Assuming Mac & cheese? - New American Near Me - Portland, Oregon

You ever just look at delivery apps to see what sounds good? Well I do and I landed on mac and cheese. I love a good one and when you can customize all the better. Because yes, I'm going to put puked pork on it, always. My partner got the exact same things on his so I didn't get to sample more flavors, oh well. It was delicious and I like it when customizing doesn't seem like a hassle, but more the way it's designed to be used. You feel confident your order will be correct. It may not look at first to be a big container of good for the price, but once you get into it you realize just how much there actually is. Very filling and delicious. Nice creamy texture and you get the flavors of your add ons. I would recommend this to anyone who likes mac and cheese because, what's not to like? Delicious food at a reasonable price. read more

Soooooo bummed. Under new management and it shows. Will not return. Portions are about half (which is actually a good thing and still plenty to eat). Unfortunately it tasted like nothing I'd want to eat again. No more crab and cheese which is what I came back for. I ordered shrimp Mac and cheese expecting shrimp and got the micro bay shrimp. Crusty and scorched cheese vs ooey gooey goodness I look for in macaroni and cheese. Sadness. read more

The brussel sprouts are better than the Mac in my opinion. It doesn't seam like they make a roux for the sauce. I think it's just melted cheese maybe? Can't quite put my finger on it but the flavor isn't quite there. The brussel sprouts are so good though with the garlic aioli! read more

OMGoodness!!!! I've never really been a fan of macaroni and cheese, grew up eating that boxed crap and never liked it. So when the cashier chuckled when I said I was going to share my Mac I thought "rude" why's he laughing at me? Then I took my first bite and the ooey-gooey cheese and flavors just exploded and then I knew why. Long story short we ended up jockeying for the last bite. The build your own Mac comes with many add-ins so you can throw in some veggies or meat. The green goddess was my favorite and there will be no sharing on my next visit;) Great location and set up. 11/10 read more

I was saddened a couple years ago when a delicious mac spot closed on Mississippi Ave. Then when I was driving home on 99, I saw a bright sign called Mac'D. Curious, I dug deeper online and it turned out to be what I have been craving for some time. Thankfully, they were open on Sunday and didn't close until late in the evening. I parked to the side in the heavy rain and dashed to the order window. I like the various options that were laid upon me. Essentially, you pick the base sauce, toppings, and whatever catches your taste buds. Most of the toppings are free of charge, with truffle oil, seafood, and other options at an extra charge. I placed my order, then they said I could wait in the car and then text me when it was ready to pick up. Seating is very limited outside and it's definitely meant for carry out. The portion is generous and can easily feed 2 or 3 people. I took the food home and scarfed it down since I was starving all day. What I picked was a buffalo sauce base with chorizo and chicken as the meat. I also picked out an assortment of veggies and paid extra for the truffle oil. As much as I love truffle oil, I couldn't taste much of it. Everything else however was pretty tasty. I do regret eating the whole thing in one sitting as I was pretty full for the next day or 2. I look forward in trying other dishes and mixing up the toppings. The service was great and I welcome them to Portland since it started out in the Bay Area. It's also nice that it's close by to where I live so whenever I need a mac craving, they are there to serve! read more

SO bummed! for $24... I was stoked about the cauliflower pasta (the gluten free option for additional $2.50). turns out - REAL cauliflower, basically raw. So instead of an awesome piping hot Mac n cheese situation on a freezing night, it was a bowl of yes tasty pesto cheese...on hard AF cauliflower and I mean legit big pieces, and crunch AF. If it was even slightly steamed id be fine. it's so crunchy, we had to turn the TV up. come on. for $24??????? get a gluten free PASTA option please. read more

Had this has delivered to work the other day, it is the perfect thing for a diverse crowd, as the meat lovers will be happy, as well has vegatarians and vegans, as they have options for all. I tend to lean towards vegan but I couldn't resist the sound of the buffalo mac n cheese. It had the perfect amount of buffallo sauce blended in with the mac n cheese. I also order brussell sprouts which were delicous. I think the value is great as for $13 I got two meals from this. It was very filling. I think next time I will try one of the vegan options. read more
