My plate

There are two listings for the same place. Makes it looks like one location has a sit down restaurant and that is not the case. The Gaithersburg location is only catering and pick up in and industrial park part of the city. We came expecting to eat there but realized this wasn't the case. The menu is different so go online and place your order for pick up. There is a picnic table outside but glad we decided not to eat there as it was just too messy. Brisket was dry in my opinion. Ribs were very good Coleslaw and Mac n cheese were both top notch. Wings were meaty and good. Cornbread was tasty but dries out quickly so eat it fast. All in all we would probably order take out from here again when we need a local bbq fix and don't want to do it ourselves.

This has to be the oddest food pickup experience I've ever had, but not in a bad way! You start out by driving down a dark road in an industrial area, and pull up to a small...office that smells amazing. There was tea and a coffee pot but I didn't see any cups. A holiday scene was on the television with festive music playing. A woman popped her head out form the back space that must be the kitchen and then went back to get my order. It was about a 5 or so minute wait for our food. The brisket and chicken were both great. The coleslaw was good but I prefer a vinegar base over mayo (they use mayo). I'm a huge fan of the bbq sauce, which I'm now using on Thanksgiving leftovers.

Mac Cheese (1/2 LB)
Tammy J.C. D.

I really wish we could do half stars, I would give this place a 3.5. It wasn't bad it just wasn't what we expected based on the hype. I got brisket and whole some love the fat, I do not and I sadly got a lot which led me to my overall rating of 3 vs 4. The Mac and cheese was unique, definitely creamy, but a bit too unique for what I expected from a bbq joint. Cornbread was pretty basic. This place is a small pick up joint situated in an industrial area, with a picnic table outside and 2 chairs inside to wait for your order. We ordered on site and waited, it took maybe 15 mins which wasn't bad.

3.22.24 I had read great reviews of this establishment so was excited to give it a try. I came with a friend on a Friday evening. There are a few narrow parking spaces in the front and an unpaved lot to the side. Upon entering, there is a bar to the left, a pickup counter in the center, and dining area to the right. My friend and I sat in the dining area. We found a table and thought a server would come around, but learned that orders are placed at the front. I asked the friendly owner what he recommended. He was helpful in assisting me narrow down my sides. I ordered a combo of 1/2 rack of baby back ribs and baked beans to go for my hubby and 3/4 pulled pork with mac/crabmeat and cornbread for my sides. I also ordered their homemade lemonade. My friend ordered 1/2 rack of baby back ribs and sliced brisket and selected coleslaw and the potato salad for her sides. The food is brought out to your table and came out less than five minutes later. Record speed! The highlight for me was the lemonade, cornbread, and mac & crabmeat. My pulled pork was dry and bland. I added sauce which helped. My friend was not happy with her meal with the exception of the coleslaw. She said the ribs were dry and the brisket was saucy. My hubby said the ribs were dry, but the beans were good. Cups, water, containers, and condiments are self-serve. There are two unisex restrooms. Overall I loved the friendly staff. They came around to clear tables. Sides and lemonade were delicious, however, the barbecue itself was lacking oomph.

Pulled pork sandwich with coleslaw
Kelly D.

We've heard so many recommendations posted on Facebook, we made the stop this afternoon to check them out, unfortunately the dining room was closed due to a private event starting a few hours later, but the bar side was open for service. We made it in time luckily. OMG, what a good BBQ sandwich. I reserve my judgements based on the establishments Pulled Pork BBQ and this was DELICIOUS, LEAN, Tender and Tasty!! I asked for added sauce on the side as you neve know but really didn't need much extra than the initial drizzle, the meat was THAT juicy and flavorful. And you get enough coleslaw on the side to put on the sandwich as well as eating with the sandwich. This is also one of the few BBQ establishments I've found with pulled chicken sandwich offered and found the chicken to be very juicy, tender and delicious. I also ordered the cornbread to go so I could try theirs as cornbread is one of my favorite things. I'm very particular and already have a local place that sets the bar pretty high for the best cornbread. Mackie's doesn't pass the benchmark, slightly dry without being overly crumbly, still holds together and it was tasty. Small portion but no corn pieces found in the mix. The place was clean and all staff was VERY friendly, accommodating and answered all our questions. We definitely will be back.

Pulled Chicken (1/2 LB) $13.95
Xavier I.

Thursday 3/28/2024 This a takeout only spot that specializes in bbq. The customer service was solid. I was able to get a free pulled pork sandwich with the yelp check in coupon offer by spending $45 or more. I made a pick up order through DoorDash and got pulled chicken (1/2 pound) $13.95, dry rub wings (9 ct) $14.95, sliced brisket (1/2 pound) $16.95, and the pork & Mac (1/2 pound) $11.95. - pulled chicken * this was very underwhelming and not the worth the price at all. * there's nothing special about it: it's just unseasoned chicken with a drizzle of bbq sauce over it. - dry rub wings * got a total of 9 wings and they were decent * personally, I wish it wasn't only flats and that there was an option for bbq sauce to be added. - sliced brisket * Some pieces were a bit chewy & softer than others but overall it was pretty good. - pork & Mac * it was a bit pricey and it definitely could've benefited with addition of more seasoning so you could get more flavor out of it. * I added some bbq sauce to it and the combination takes the flavor & taste to another level. - pulled pork sandwich * probably my favorite item: it was pretty good and it was free (with yelp check in coupon) * the bbq sauce was very good * luckily I got the item for free because the original $15 price tag is crazy. All in all, this is a decent bbq spot that charges some pretty expensive prices with servings that don't quite add up but it is what it is.

Cornbread
Ed G.

I've been frequenting Mackie's since before COVID-19 struck. It feels like ages ago, the food remains consistently amazing. The ribs have incredible flavor and are perfectly sauced, achieving a delightful balance between the meat and the sauce. I'm curious if it's possible to request different sauce flavors? The chicken salad surpassed my expectations, and the cornbread, while a tad dry, was brought back with some butter, likely how it was meant to be enjoyed. The indoor seating area is wonderful. While I couldn't dine in today, I'm looking forward to staying longer. The ample space and separate full bar area are great. Today, I had the pleasure of chatting with Cam Mackie, learning about post-COVID changes, business plans, and exciting new menu items. I'm eager to come back to try out the new items.

Ribs and Brisket combo
Amy S.

This was our first visit here. On this visit, they were understaffed, so it took a little long to order. You order at the counter, and food will be brought out to your table. The gentleman was very apologetic regarding the service. Onto the food, we started with 6 bandito jalapeños. It was spicy but good flavors. For Entree, we got the ribs and brisket combo with coleslaw and mac/cheese. The ribs were falling off the bone, and the brisket was very tender. Both were winners. Coleslaw was fine, but I think it may have contained mustard, which I do not like. Mac and cheese - wasn't a fan. However, friends we were with loved the mac and cheese. Our friends loved what they got- combo entree and brisket sandwich. Overall, it was a good experience and enjoyed the food. If I could recommend one thing, it would be a better ordering process.

Pulled pork sandwich with a side of potato salad
Jo M.

This is more 3.5 for now. Ordered delivery through the website which gets delivered by DoorDash. This location is carryout and catering at an industrial section off Shady Grove Road. For dine-in, they have locations in Olney and Frederick. Got the pulled pork sandwich with a side of potato salad and cornbread. The pork was tender. I like their barbecue sauce. A good mix of tangy, smokey and sweet. Potato salad was good. Cornbread was tasty. Sweet, a little crumbly. Great with a bit of butter. Ordered the Mac and cheese as an extra side dish. It's creamy and peppery. Would've been better if it had more cheese. Would order again but add more cheese to it. Also got the crab dip that is served with toasted bread. It's just OK. Crab meat wasn't as fresh in smell or taste. I think when you're a Maryland restaurant, you really should know how to do crab better. Will have to try other things on the menu. I don't eat beef so I'll have to try the chicken and ribs. Will be sure to update!

We keep a private list of preferred restaurants in our area. These are our 'go to" when not preparing meals at home. Our criteria are: (1) reliably good food' (2) professional, yet friendly service, and; (3) a safe welcoming environment. It is the list we trust to share with family, friends and business contacts in the area when asked "What's a good place to eat?" After lunch today, Mackie's is on our list. In fact it bumped another BBQ restaurant off! Pulled pork, ribs, corn bread, cole slaw and a complimentary baked bean sample - were top notch. Arnold Palmer's with sippy cup lids were a good complement. We found the meat portions generous and took about half home. No room for dessert - sigh. FYI - Claiming to have the "best BBQ" can be a divisive issue. Don/'t take the bait. Our advice is to trust what Mackie's serves. If Mackie's southern style is not your favorite, at least you can be assured you experienced a good one. We really liked condiments, extra napkins, water, take away boxes and extra utensils as self-service available. Easy peasy. Restrooms were clean and one was accessible. It's obvious the Mackie's invested in the facility for the long term. It's updated and clean. Cameron Mackie greeted us at the door and expertly guided us to the best menu selections based on our desires. His advice saved us some $! Noosh Mackie (see photo) checked on us often enough and made us feel at home. Yes, the food was superior, yet it was the Mackie's personal attention that made our experience extra special. A third Mackie, I believe, held the door for me upon entry. We did not talk much, but he certainly made a positive initial impression. Wow! Who else does this? We did not see alcoholic beverages on the menu- that is good for us. Mackie's BBQ is a family friendly place we'll return to and recommend with no reservations. (Pun not intended). Only issue.......... We are not a fan of prepaying meal charges. It's impossible to tip accurately. At other restaurants with this system, we prepay for the meal and then offer cash for tip after. We were not prepared with cash but will be next time. Total price was about $50.

Cocktail menu

First let me say this place was amazing food wise. I tried them when they were at airpark and did catering. I felt their prices are now more reasonable at the restaurant. Upon entering the restaurant it felt a bit disorganized. Let me start with why they lost 1 star. I hope this helps them to improve in the future. Just don't change anything about the menu or food! Went for 1pm lunch experience on a Sunday. There are several entry ways. Bar, restaurant and I think possibly thru the back (not sure). Not sure about the back since I didn't check myself. But I did see folks coming from that direction. Needles to say no hostess in any of the entrances. No directions of how this establishment works. Walked in thru the bar, and no one was working behind the bar. The bar itself was empty but there are several single and family size tables in that room that are severed by the bartender. Of course I learned this after the fact. All tables were full. Since we didn't see anyone at the bar we went into the restaurant. There was a really long line to order and all the tables were full in the restaurant as well. No workers in sight other than the young kid behind the registered. Swamped taking orders from the line. I felt bad for him. They should have two registers. But because there was no one around to give us directions. I also didn't want to stand on a really long line to be turned away. I asked him if we order there? He said yes but there are no tables and there is a bit of a wait. He also told me he is swamped which was obvious and it was reason I hated to bother him. I felt he should have told me to go check in the bar. That there is more seating there. Because I then walked back to the bar area. Which is a different room and not visible from the restaurant portion. I now did see a bartender behind the bar. There was already two people sitting there in about 8-10 stool bar area. I asked the bartender if we could order food there too and she said absolutely. So got off the restaurant line and went to eat at the bar instead. Had someone been available to explain this from the getgo. Would have been smoother. Or the kid taking orders mentioned it too. Would have helped a great deal. Now on to the food. Once we got past the seating difficulties. Ordered the combo of two meats. Got the brisket and pulled pork, with two sides :mac & cheese and beans. Plus a side of the crinkle fries. So when I pulled up to the restaurant as I walked to the front door I smelled fries not BBQ. Which is the reason I made sure I ordered the fries. Also got the Buffalo wings. Everything we got was amazing! It was enough for two and even took leftovers home. The sauces of all the meats were delicious. I want to go back and try the ribs next time. I also asked them if they sell their sauces. I would have really loved to take the Buffalo sauce home. It was so delish! They don't sell it. But took the million dollar sauce. It was in a smaller container than their other bbq sauce with a different name. But the bartender told me they had different names but the sauce was essentially the same thing. That was confusing?! Why name them two different things then? From afar the large container the sauce looked darker than the one I bought. That didn't make sense. I fell the wings give "full on" a run for best wings in Montgomery County. Although full on does fried and these are smoked. Still they were amazing!!! Will be back for many more times to come! Can't wait! I ordered I think it was called a Texas burro which was essentially a Moscow mule by a different name. Not sure why give it a different name? Thanks for the great food experience. Can't wait to go back for more! Parking was packed. Depending on when you go it will be loud I imagine. Because there were lots of kids when I was there. So it is kid friendly. But if you get annoyed by parents yelling at their kids for being abnoxious, and kids yelling too, def not your kind of place. If you are looking for a quiet dinner date night kind of place. Happy hour is available.

I had been craving BBQ for a few weeks and convinced my husband to try out Mackie's. They recently opened this location, so I was excited to check it out. When we walked in, we were immediately greeted and given information about their opening, along with what their popular items were, and what items they were out of. There are two entrances....one takes you to the bar room, where they have a bar, small tables, and T.Vs.; perfect spot to have a beer, BBQ, and watch football. Hubs and I went inside and decided to sit in the dining area. They had plenty of tables available when we went, which was Sunday afternoon. I was bummed that they ran out of fries, but I knew exactly what I wanted.....a pulled pork sandwich with coleslaw. Hubs opted for the ribs with mac n cheese and corn bread. Food didn't take long and came out nice and hot. The sandwich tasted great, but I personally prefer a bit more BBQ sauce on mine. I could've asked for some on the side. The coleslaw was perfect. My husband enjoyed the ribs, but I think they were a bit too fatty for his liking. Other than that, the sauce was good, and meat fell right off the bone. The mac-n-cheese was cheesy and good, but needed a bit more salt. The cornbread was good too. Service was great. We were checked on a few times and asked about their food and feedback. Overall, good local BBQ spot that we plan to visit again. Must try for those in the area!

Pulled pork sandwich with mac and cheese, and cole slaw
Jeneane B.

Hands down best barbecue in the area - quite possibly the best brisket went ever had. I got the pulled pork sandwich with a side of cole slaw (which I promptly pulled atop the sandwich). Pork was sweet and smoky, but not too smoky, and the coke slaw was perfectly sauced (not too wet or dry). Hubs had 2 meat of pulled pork and brisket with a side of crinkle fries (and he let me try a little of everything). I have had a lot of brisket in my day, but this might be the best I've ever had. It was juicy, flavorful, and not too much fat. The fries were also some of the best...(crinkles are my favorite!).

Does this business really use styrofoam containers for take out? Aren't these banned in MoCo?

LOL - All of our locations use recyclable containers. Thanks for reaching out...

Can locations that are closed be noted in the main information? I have gone to several out of business locations based on the lack of this info on Yelp.

We're not closed—our Gaithersburg location is primarily a commercial kitchen that we run catering out of, with a limited menu available for takeout and delivery. If you've stopped by and found the door locked, that just means we're out at an event,…

I ordered pulled pork and Cold (aka coleslaw) Slaw platter and it came with cornbread. Hubby ordered the pulled chicken sandwich and fries. Both looked excellent and good sized portions. We grabbed a soda at the fountain, picked out a nice table for 2 and began sampling 4 of the 6 sauces at the table. I ended up with 3 favs & just rotated between them, could NOT pick a favorite. The pork was tasty on its own, juicy & only found 1 small piece of fat. The cornbread was very dry, so I doused it with Memphis Belle and elevated it. Husband thought his chicken sandwich was excellent, chicken was moist & flavorful. He ended up enjoying the Texan Tang sauce. All-in-all, a great experience, we will be back.

When we arrived we were warmly greeted. The menu was expansive so we ordered a lot. The food was delicious. My wife said this was the best place she has eaten at since we've moved to the area. I enjoyed and it reminded me of being home. The Catfish was super crispy and well seasoned. The wife enjoyed the ribs and fried corn. The sides met the high standards of the kids especially the Mac and cheese. I would like to also highlight the variety of deserts that the cheesecakes and apple cobbler were to die for.

The ribs are tender and each bite is packed with the flavor. They're slathered with sauce which may be off putting to some. For me, it was that perfectly fine balance between enough and flooded. Oh and the portion size? Amazing! Definitely enough to get full for dinner. Pass out for a minute then finish the rest the next day. The Mac and cheese was great. No, these aren't hand made noodles but the amount of cheese, the seasoning, evening l everything else was done expertly. If you want to save yourself an hour or two of cooking mac and cheese at home, get it here. The atmosphere here is very home cooking. It doesn't feel like it's some massive cookie cutter operation. It's nostalgic. This is what comfort food is supposed to taste like. Eating it made me think about fun times with the family back in Florida. While I made the order online, I was greeted as soon as I walked up to the counter. My order was done exactly when it said it would be done and was made with my additional request. I couldn't it be happier and look forward to many more orders and glad to have this place in the neighborhood.

The birthday team of staff brought out those big sparkling candles on top of a complimentary non-alcoholic drink. Loud music & singing, exciting & super fun atmosphere. Our kids were thrilled with the surprises. While you only have an hour 45 minutes for the all-you-can-eat meal, most people get stuffed after an hour. Our server m.k. was pleasant and friendly. She was also very efficient and handled everything quickly. A BIG thanks to her. If you have never been to this place, I would highly recommend it. I'll be taking my other family members here very soon :)

Such a great AYCE place for a group of friends who can't decide what they want to eat. They have a…read morehuge variety and offer KBBQ, hotpot and seafood. A little something for everyone You order the KBBQ and hot pot food on a tablet and the seafood buffet is self served. They consistently kept the buffet well stocked and clean. I love that they have a huge sauce bar selection.

Very good chicken! Very similar to the place from Korean shows. Highly recommend it! Quick service!read more

The chicken is great. Don't get me wrong.,…read more (something to take note of before reading this boneless wings cost less than the bone-in wings and you get much more meat from them then you do on the bone-in wings) I got the -wings of fire -cheesling wings (ordered boneless the lady taking the order put in bone-in) -cheesling fries The wings of fire don't come in boneless for some reason. This is a downside, but they are very good one of my favorite things of them is that they have the perfect amount of spice to get me out of my comfort zone, but not be torture me.(I have an above average spice tolerance.) Cheesling wings. I normally love these things, but I normally get them in boneless. I asked for them boneless to the person taking orders. I got home and realized I hadn't gotten boneless (also bone in wings cost a dollar more. Yes, I was charged for bone-in wings. I looked at the receipt.) Cheesling fries. These were ok, but I don't think the cheese powder added much (it was very sweet. Almost gross but bearable) to them next time. I'll probably just get the regular fries. I will continue to eat from here. But I will be contacting the store tomorrow about my wings not being boneless. The ambience was OK multiple televisions playing multiple different programs and a nice looking bar. Another problem was that Maps app says that this place is open till nine but my friends and I got there at 8:30 and the person working upfront said that we have to order takeout and they don't serve food in front past eight

I am a traveler by necessity and a foodie by choice. So first the service... Ana was absolutely…read moreawesome. She was attentive without hovering, patiently answered my questions, and helpfully offered options when I was unsure what to order. I did not do the all you can eat as I wanted specific cuts of premium meats. Now the food... I was incredibly happy with my choices and quality of ingredients. Ordered the A5 Wagyu ribeye and wagyu tongue which i have not tried before and it was delicious, thick cut prime beef tongue, a wonderful oyster appetizer with uni and salmon roe... I loved every morsel, as well as the two craft cocktails. Yes A5 is a premium buy, here it was worth it and I highly recommend. The restaurant was lively without being overly loud, great for group eating for sure.

Took my nephew to Gyuzo for his birthday! Firstly, we were running 30 mins later than our 12:30…read morereservations and they were great at letting me move our reservations to 1 pm. That's a win book! We got there about 15 minutes earlier than our original time and they were still very willing to seat us to our table. 2nd win! Our server Anna was fabulous. Very attentive and gave great recommendations. Since I was with three hardy eaters, we went with Ozeki and it was plenty of food at the end. Check them out - highly recommend. Good location but they had their AC turned on pretty low that it got chilly before the grill was turned on.
