I was very skeptical going here after reading the reviews, I just finally decided to cave and try…read moreit because all the reviews seemed hit or miss. I live 50 minutes out from here and I had a doctor appointment, I stopped here because I hadn't eaten on the way down and I wanted to try something new. On my way in, the host was nice and sat me at my table, the atmosphere wasn't bad. I was in a quiet corner and it seemed like slow day for them so it felt pretty peaceful to me. I had the Mac n cheese bowl and it was delicious! Very nice and hot and it all tested pretty fresh! It came with three garlic/butter bread and they were lightly toasted on one side and it was perfect. Chad was my waiter and he did a very nice job as well, he checked on me in timely manner that wasn't to much and he was very polite and calm. So I'd definitely say I'm very satisfied with my first experience, and I think it's a nice place to give a try if you hadn't eaten there before. Of course everyone experience will be different and not as good as mine, but this definitely deserves a chance, and if I come down here again I'll definitely come back and eat here! My only "complaint" is that I would've liked more broccoli in my Mac n cheese, but it was so good that it didn't even affect my experience.

Met a friend at 8. For the first hour, the atmosphere was solid. For the second hour, it was okay. For the third hour, it wasn't good. The clientele kept going downhill. It had a bit of a troublemaking vibe. Just letting you know. But you probably already know. This is more for the people coming in from out of town and considering it as an option. If you want a chill vibe, I recommend going during the day or evening.

They have so many sandwich options, which was overwhelming, but great. They also have other food options, but we all went for sandwiches. We went on a weekday during lunch time, so it wasnt busy.

Definitely gives local and college vibes, which we loved. We ordered the Macados club, Godfather and one other, which I can't recall. The sandwiches are large and very filling. I was able to take half home and finish for dinner. It comes with chips or you can pay extra and get fries. They tasted really good and fresh. We have definitely made Macados a regular spot. Ill be sure to get pictures next time we stop there.

Food = Good enough…read more Service = Inadequate. Our Thursday night prearranged dinner for about 25 weary out of state travelers was scheduled for 6:30 PM. We arrived together in time and were promptly seared in a private room. So far, so good. From there the service became glacial. The meals we ordered arrived after 8:00 PM and the checks after 9:00 PM. Two and a half hours involuntary incarceration Is just too long. The three young ladies serving our tables were gracious, industrious, and determined to treat us well. Admittedly, the main saloon was also packed with raucous inebriants wanting food and drink. I suggest that the delay was possibly in the kitchen. Ambience = Loud

The waitress came out and got our drink orders and delivered them fairly promptly. She said just to let you know it will be about 25 minutes before you get your food. There were 4 people in our area. Over an hour passed before the food came out... Missing the French fries. We had to go and locate the waitress twice to tell her we had not gotten the fries They still didn't come out. In about 30 minutes they finally arrived after asking twice. They were fresh and hot so obviously they had not been cooked 30 minutes earlier. Offered dessert because we had to wait so long. We took it but around 25 more minutes before it was delivered. Not great at all. Brownie obviously old and dried out. Waitress told us there were 3 cooks in the kitchen. Not sure what they were doing. We watched the second half of the Arizona v somebody game and the first half of the Duke v Virginia game. You just can't make this stuff up. Maybe worst service ever!

After several visits to this Macado's I decided to finally write a review about this extravagant…read morerestaurant. According to their website, "Macado's started in downtown Roanoke, Virginia, in 1978 and became popular for its eclectic decor and moderately priced food, especially with the college crowd." The chain emphasizes: "a comfortable and enjoyable atmosphere for a diverse clientele, including families."  Today, as I was seated in the booth the Host had brought me to and observing the Macado's logo on the paper napkin laying on my table, I thought to myself: What is the meaning of the "Just to be there" located under the restaurant's name in its logo? And I thought to myself that It's possible "Just to be there" might be a phrase associated with the feeling of camaraderie or the comfortable atmosphere that Macado's aims to provide, and thus a popular spot for people of all ages and social classes to get together, eat, socialize, and be merry. I remember the very first time I ate here. It was for a lunch invitation from a good friend of mine I hadn't seen in a while. The first impression I got of the place was amazing. I loved the building where the restaurant was housed and all the interesting decorations. It was almost completely full from the lunch crowd, yet this provided a warm and cozy feeling knowing that so many people had taken the time to come eat here even though they knew it would be crowded. I was fascinated by the large and extensive menu, and after carefully reviewing it, ordered the Bacon, Egg, and Cheese Burger. It came with half a pound of meat, a soft fresh bun, and a whole bunch of krinkle fries. It was so big and delicious I can't forget how full I was when I finished eating it. Just eating there for the first time and I couldn't wait to return. I had set such high expectations of the place that many of the other times I visited the place I was disappointed. It could have been by the lack of training of the servers on the Knowledge of and explaining menu items, or by the timing on how to serve them. Or it could be by a mistake from the cook in cooking or preparing an item. Like today, I ordered Bang Bang Shrimp as an appetizer and the shrimp arrived overcooked almost to the point of burnt with the Assian Crisp Noodles a bit stale. So much so that I had to ask to see the manager to formally complain. The manager was a friendly young lady who listened to me and admitted the shrimp could have been fried before they had just changed the oil. And she came up with possible solutions to the question: "What can I do to make it right?" Of which I choose for her to not charge me for the burnt shrimp and the bad dining experience they had caused me. I went on and ate the Lone Ranger sandwich with Onion Rings that were cooked right, and because of the manager's handling of the situation in such an effective way, I am sure to return, because there is something about Macado's that makes you want to "Just to be there."
