THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE!!! PLEASE DO NOT SUPPORT THIS TACO MAC! My daughter and her coworkers went to celebrate the birthday of another coworker. The waitress whose name is Mackenzie(not sure if correct spelling) was absolutely rude and disrespectful. She rolled her eyes and acted like they were an annoyance more than anything. They ordered but began to really feel annoyed when other people that came in after were served their food and drinks before them. I was not there however I was on FaceTime with my daughter. I was listening to the whole thing. They asked to speak with a manager and were told that he was busy. Well long story short the management then decided that they would accuse them of stealing a beer. Police were called and yet their was not one arrest or any verbal communication from the police. I went up there and I myself spoke to one of the police officers and he had no idea what beer incident I was referring to. So in other words they used the police as a scare tactic for these young people. This is WRONG on SOOOO MANY LEVELS! As you all know I am a Mama Bear so I went up there and one of the officers asked if I need anything from him. I explained that no I did not except to find out what exactly was going on. I let him know that I was on the phone with my daughter when I heard they were being accused of stealing and that the police were going to be called. The manager actually walked back over to where the police officer was and the Officer asked him if everything was good and the manager said yes because they all were leaving. What bothered me most was it felt so racially motivated to me that I am literally disgusted by it. The managers name was Rob. Now mind you I am not sure if that is a first or last name but all the same he was very rude and disrespectful even when I asked him his name he was very cocky and his demeanor was very smug. I just want to spread the word an urge you all to do the right thing and not support this kind of tolerance. The world is too full of hate as it is! To the owner: In case you are not aware of this situation this really needs to be addressed. This is definitely NOT okay! read more

Horrible, go anywhere else. My husband went thru the beer list four times before they had one "on tap" that he wanted; the server had no idea what was available, so made four trips back and forth to our table. Food was adequate at best. Witnessed a waitress completely disrespect a group of young people celebrating a birthday last night. They had to wait for drinks and food, well after anyone who came in after them; when they asked to speak with a Manager, they were told he was "busy". Too busy to speak with customers? Could it have been because they were Hispanic? Only the waitress knows for sure. Not the first bad experience here, but the last! read more

If we could give a zero, we would. Bottom line, if you have a group, move on. They "don't do groups" and they will tell you you are a "major inconvenience ". This is per the general manager, I believe his name is James but I will confirm that and update if necessary. Read on if you dare... Our group had a standing reserved area every two weeks and had been ongoing for months. There was an arrangement with management and everything was okay with the exception of being a bit slow. Apparently, the management and some staff were all fired at some point and replaced. Our group's arrangement was still honored but the service got continuously worse and worse (not the wait staff, management threw them under the bus to wait on us). They did not staff up for our visits and the wait to order and have food delivered was about 2 hours. Absolutely ridiculous. The wait staff of normally one person to 20-40 guests was continuously having to apologize. Every time we participated we never received all of our order. And the last time we went my son was served beef that tasted tainted and actually threw up there. This time was the worst. They would not seat us in a timely manner, wouldn't take our orders for over an hour. Food was not received in a timely manner even though our server was busting her butt! The staff kept pointing fingers at each other as to who was at fault, no one stepping up taking responsibility and resolve the issues and the manager was the worst! He was rude, ill mannered and extremely unprofessional! There could have been a nicer more professional way to let the group leader know we weren't welcome than "you are a major inconvenience". The lines of communication were open and this could have been addressed during the time of communication. His attitude and behavior was appalling! This man should be fired IMHO. He represents Taco Mac. I can guarantee you we will never patronize any Taco Mac due to him and neither will at least 60 other people that have been going there. But obviously they won't care. read more

They don't seem to want to serve people with big groups. Manager James is very rude and corporate doesn't seem to care either. Overall, why go here when you can go local and support small businesses? You're already spending money, spend it well! read more

Tried their online "join the wait list" option. Arrived and was told they didn't honor that and "all the other Taco Macs have theirs turned off." Didn't even bother staying because of the 45 minute wait. read more

Just left Hooters 20 minutes ago, where I intended to order food for the family and eat there, but also some to take home. Due to the horrible experience with the waitress staff I decided to leave and go somewhere else with my wife. We ended up very nearby a Taco Mac. The waitress, Katie, was very kind and friendly. Our food was somewhat pretty good. I had a Clermont Burger, which was delicious. I intended to order same thing at Hooters. Now, my wife ordered the boneless wings, but they were not as good as she had hoped. As for the waitress staff and the men's room staff, our experience here was much better and we intend to return to this location. read more

I've been here numerous times over the years. Last few times, tons of empty tables and told a long wait. Hire some people or figure things out! Decide to sit at the bar, waitress has an attitude when we ask to have the cheese dip appetizer heated up because it's cold. She comes back and states that she got yelled at because she tried to get it heated up. Maybe they shouldn't serve warm thick cheese dip to begin with. The nail in the coffin, order a burger and told they only cook well-done per corporate now. What a stupid corporate decision that was. Who wants a dry overcooked burger..... not coming back here again... read more

Being told they don't want our business eventhough we are a monthly gathering guaranteed! Bad service and rude manager

Have been here countless times and the service has been fine. Came here with a friend who has never been and I don't think she'll be back. We waited for over 30 mins to get our food, which would have been understandable if they were busy/slammed. They were not. There was probably 6 other people seated in the dining area and around 5 at the bar. We arrived at 4 and got our food at 4:38. The waitress kept coming around, but we just ended up getting our food to go. read more

This Taco Mac is going downhill fast... go to another if you can... Service was VERY slow and the place wasn't close to busy... The food was ok, not great, no seasoning on the wings and they ran out of sweet tea... how does one allow their sweet tea to go empty in GA.... might as well have run out of wings... Server was below average :-/ Sad read more

The food there was amazing and if you don't like bright light then definitely go the light are not to bright and the food was off the chain.

Was somewhat disappointed this visit. I ordered a burger that was supposed to have mushrooms, sauteed onions and bacon, but only had raw onions, and mushrooms. I had to re-request the bacon which the bartender, sarah (who was awesome), who took care of the order within 5 minutes, got quickly. The sweet potato fries were EXTREMELY salty.., however the selection of beer that Sarah recommended helped offset that saltiness. The burgers were extremely small compared to how they used to be made..(see picture).. ...but I asked for medium, and it was cooked perfectly. My caveat was the swweet potato fries were inedible Beyond unbearable..I felt I was in a salt bath. From the times in the past, I think the food used to be a lot better... ...but the service ws always solid.. just wish they maintained the same service across the organization... service and food being top notch...(to bad they lacked in the food side) ---------------------- read more

Showed up at 11:30am the place was dead. It is now 12:30pm and we have left the restaurant with nothing. They served everyone around us and the server finally came over to say they "lost" our order and they would remake it. We waited another 20 mins before telling the manager we were done. Ridiculous read more

Went to Taco Mac twice this week after a couple of baseball games and I enjoyed both my times there! Besides the wait each time with open tables available... the food was excellent, service was fast, and overall a great experience. I suggest their boneless wings and their honey chipotle flavor is super delicious! There wedge salad also was great. I would definitely come back here in the future. read more

Didn't receive 3 items from DoorDash order. I called and spoke to the manager Natasha, she expressed zero remorse for her teams mistake and took zero accountability to help resolve it and told me I can come pick it up! Seriously - why would I order delivery service and pay premium prices for the items and service / delivery fees to be told to pick up what they didn't full fill?!? She wasn't willing to do anything to rectify the issue and put the burden on me to resolve it with DoorDash. Customer no service is where we stand today. I hope her management looks at these reviews and provides much needed coaching. They just lost a frequent patron of over 10 years and my family and friends won't be going there either. read more

The loyalty of regulars and agreements made should be honored. Don't throw too much at your wait staff, they treat them so poorly.

I am a very picky eater and I must say the wings are absolutely amazing. Cooked to perfection with so much flavor. Highly recommend the voodoo cajun flavor and the Mac and cheese is also good. Best food I've had in a while read more

Came here with family, nothing to complain about. I enjoyed my experience here, staff are nice and friendly as well.

The service is the absolute worst, and the wings are good but definitely not worth it. Everytime we've come we end up getting ignored or waiting 30 minutes on a server to acknowledge us. The cherry to top our experiances came when we went in and wasted 1hr for food and 40 of those minutes were waiting on food that was ordered only for our waiter to come up at the 40 minute mark and advise us our order got lost when the computer switched over to dinner which is funny because it had already been dinner time when we got there. The worst Taco Mac, the one one exit down is worth the extra miles. read more

Ah yes~ After a long week of work, what a great way to end the work week at Taco Mac! I love everything about this place but one thing... Their beer menu is like Netflix. So many to choose and you waste your time trying to select your beer lol. j.k. love their selection and I don't even know why I look at the menu when I always order the Beer of the Month. This is my first time ordering "dinner". I usually go for beers, sports, just hanging out. I went out with family and friends and I have to say, its pretty family friendly. They were very accommodating with kids and even babies. My server was a newb in training and she did a good job. They helped me step by step with signing up with Brewniversity to basically make me an alcoholic lol. But its a cool program and I can't wait to get a free shirt. Burgers were thick and juicy. Surprisingly pretty good. And the quesadilla was "huuggge". Needless to say, we all walked out full. Oh snap, I forgot the best part. THE WINGS!!!. Plain crispy wings and HOT sauce on the side is my choice. Reason for this is to keep my wings hot and crispy. yes i'm a dipper. Will I be back? yes sir~ need to try more of their beer selections and maybe level up on the hot wings. read more

Terrible service, they do not like large groups, good luck getting your food shorter than an hour later.

I don't know how someone could write a review about this place and not express their point of view as someone who is not fond of Sports Bars in general. Normally sports bars do not offer side attractions, like shot girls, but for some reason Taco Mac near the Mall of GA feels that it is appropriate almost every weekend. I would not recommend any guy to take a date to this particular location. Hopefully most of you guys out there have enough common sense to come to that conclusion on your own. This place does not really create an ideal environment for women either, because of the testosterone in the air and all televisions being primarily tuned into whatever sporting event is on for the day, with the volume on full blast; however, I have learned through the years that some ladies love that kind of atmosphere. The food is "Taco Mac-ish", which is a new word I created used to describe food that is greasy, and primarily consists of Chicken Wings and Mexican dishes made with an American touch. The beer is the best part of the restaurant. They have somewhere close to 200 bottled beers and 50 or so beers on tap to choose from. The best part about the beer selection is if you drink 200 different types, they make you a t-shirt! Wow, that is neat, unless you can figure out that making your own t-shirt and buying beer at the convenience store is one-thousand dollars cheaper. But hey, then you would not be an official "Passport Member." You would just be another poser. read more

Great beer and good beer food is what I call it. This Tacomac is located within walking distance from the Mall of Georgia. This is a good place to come after you been shopping at the mall. Mostly, to have a drink to forget about the debt you just created and the money you just spent at the mall. Their tacos are the best here. You can get chicken or beef. You can get them in hard shell or soft shell. Anyway, you get it the tacos are good because the meat is where the flavoring is at. Great tasting tacos. Get a Brewniversity Card too from your server or bar tender. read more

Currently sitting in here, waitress pays no attention to my buddies and I, they bring out our wings all dry and nasty not how Taco Mac used to be. Take forever to sit us and they take even longer to bring refills. Not how Taco Max used to be. read more

Taco Mac - Sauce everywhere except on the wings. Shame. - Sports Bars Near Me - Buford, Georgia

Taco Mac used to be one of my favorites! Sadly, recently the service has been awful! Not to mention that the quality of the food has been going down as well! I stopped by with the family today at this location (mall of GA) and long story short: - table was not wiped down, it still had cups water rings all over, and sticky in most places - it took them 30 min to bring us the food! - the salsa was in a sample size cup! One for the whole table (we had to asked them 3 times and finally we got 3 more sample cups) - we had to ask them for plates, cause they didn't even bother bring those to the table, same goes with napkins - Long hair (8 inches at least) in the salad! We told them and the replacement was served in a dirty plate with some dried food around the plate! - Almost everything except the Fajita was served cold! - the fajita was mostly onions and bell pepper, with few pieces of really dried, tasteless meet that was suppose to be steak - couple of the forks were dirty, with dried food on them Terrible service, and much worse food quality! Definitely not going there again and I would not recommend this place to anyone either! What a waste of time and money! read more

This taco mac sits in the mall of ga parking lot. There is plenty of parking, but the parking lot can be hard to navigate if it's busy because the lanes are narrow. The service is usually pretty good as is the food. It's nothing special here, typical bar food. Which is great if that's what you want, I often come here and get wings with mac and cheese-my favorite things to eat here. read more

Taco Mac - At Taco Mac numerous selections of beer are only steps away. - Sports Bars Near Me - Buford, Georgia

The first time my friend suggested eating at a Taco Mac several years ago, I - like many other newbies - thought this was a taco place. Although they do serve tacos, quesadillas, and burritos, they are best known for their delicious chicken wings and huge selection of beer. I have grown to love Taco Mac's chicken wings, especially the 3-Mile Island (TMI) flavored wings. The wings at Taco Mac are larger than your average chicken wings, so whereas I may be able to eat around 8 wings at my other favorite chicken wing restaurants, I am full after eating 5 here. Most recently, our family of six arrived at this Taco Mac around 7:30 pm on a Friday, got a buzzer, and were seated after about 20 minutes. We weren't surprised about the wait because it's usually busy, and it was a Friday. The restaurant was seriously packed! Our family is probably the only one that doesn't care to watch any of the sports games that are shown on the numerous screens. We simply enjoy each others' company and the delicious wings. Since they're almost always busy, service here is generally pretty slow. My dad wanted to sample one of their SweetWater beers - the Waterkeeper - and it probably took about 10 minutes for our server to bring it over to him. By the time he got his sample, the beer was at room temperature and almost warm. He though it tasted weird warm, but our server assured my dad that the a full glass ($5) would come in a chilled glass, so he went ahead and ordered it. I usually don't like beer but decided to order a bottle of Strongbow Cider ($4.75). I had tried it in the past and enjoyed it, but for some reason, it wasn't as good as I had remembered it. Since we love chicken wings, my parents, younger sister, and I ordered a "Double" (20 pieces) of the TMI wings with fries and extra celery to share. My older sister, Yoomee H., ordered a "Six Pack" of Medium-flavored wings ($6.79), and my brother ordered the Kenmore Burger ($8.69). Almost half an hour after we ordered, we got our food. Since my mom had wanted celery, we got an order (a couple pieces) of celery for 65 cents. However, I'm always a little annoyed that you only get 1 sauce for every 10 wings, which is not nearly enough, and have to pay 65 cents for each extra sauce you order. Yet you get 1 sauce for a Six Pack... Why can't they give us 3 sauces for 20 pieces? =P But anyway, we got 1 ranch and 1 blue cheese. I'm a HUGE fan of Taco Mac's ranch sauce, so I have to order an extra ranch sometimes. They seriously have the best ranch sauce I've ever tasted! It's thick, creamy, and delicious with chives in it, and it's great with the fries and wings. Mmmm... * Double order of TMI w/Fries ($17.69) - The TMI wings are really spicy - only 2 levels away from the "Death" flavor (you have been warned!) - but they are so flavorful and good! =) The fries are good, too, and you get two small baskets of fries with the Double order of wings. So everything was tasty and we were happy - until we counted the number of wings in our Double order to make sure there were 20, and noticed that a piece that was ONLY the wing TIP (end?) portion of a flat wing (vs. drumette) was counted as 1 piece! We were shocked and immediately tried to get the attention of our server, but she was busy helping other customers. My younger sister noticed someone who looked like a manager and got his attention. As soon as we informed him of the mistake, he asked what flavor the wing was and said that he would be back with a few extra wings. Soon afterwards, he brought us 3 extra wings to make up for the error. He was super friendly and apologetic, which was really nice. The extra wings were extra delicious because they were HOT! The ones we had gotten earlier must have been sitting and waiting for a while before they were served to us because they weren't piping hot like that! How amazing would it be if they were always served at that temperature - and that fast! We really appreciated the manager's gesture. Overall, this Taco Mac by the Mall of Georgia gets 4 stars for their great TMI chicken wings, yummy fries, BEST ranch sauce, and OK service considering how busy they are. Our family will continue to eat here every so often when we are in the mood of those spicy wings! =) [Review 159 of 366] read more

meh. But that's what happens when you go corporate. The company removes itself from the costumer. The salad my wife had was not what it used to be. The beer menu was nowhere near the caliber it use to be. The street tacos we're ok. Meh. Now, what Taco Mac got right is hiring Jeff. He's a good man that took good care of us. Got my game on the TV. He was quick and even brewed fresh coffee for us. read more

Used to be The place to go for wings....Not anymore! Their wings have diminished in size and quality and the flavor is no longer there. I considered them a top wing place (along with $3 café) in the metro area but they are no longer in that consideration! HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT!! read more

I love Taco Mac but I was slightly disappointed on this visit. Our servers were nice, very attentive to the table and checked on us often. The food was mediocre. It was early afternoon, after the lunch crowd but before happy hour and the food was just meh. I've had better wings, more fresh wings that were actually hand breaded and fried. These were definitely out of a bag and tossed in a sauce that didn't taste much like the honey chipotle sauce I usually get. The nachos were ok, nothing to write home about. Taco Mac is usually my go to for wings but this experience makes me question if it should be. I'm going to give a few more chances because maybe that day was an off day. read more

I'll have to look up their specials one day. read more

The food was okay. We ordered 30 piece wings - 1 of the 3 wing flavors ended up being not wet enough I barely had sauce on one of my wings at all. The service was weird and unprofessional the male server we had seem like he was just trying to be funny and it just seemed flat out not cute at all to me. We also ordered a philly cheese sub, I had a bite of it and it was super dooper CHEESY. If you Love cheese I mean LOVE cheese that's for you. Overall it was good. I'd only come back to this location if my party really wanted to. read more

I'm visiting my sister here in GA, and she took me here since it's the best watering hole. I was very pleased to find a couple beers I enjoyed. I'm not much of a beer drinker, but I will gladly try anything. The bartenders seem to be a great crowd and remember their regulars, despite the massive Mall of GA across the way. There's a club you can join with interesting perks, if you really enjoy beer. You can get your name on a little plaque and they print you a (sometimes massive in the case of my sis who has tried over 100 beers) list of all the stuff you've tried. I had a delicious, light Cranberry Ginger Shandy and their Shrimp and Guacamole wrap. The wrap was neat, it had fresh avocado and the salsa was not over powering. They come with some really healthy side options like broccoli or apple slices. My small qualms were the rocking, rickety ass bar stool I sat in and a sticky bar by us. The hostess staff wasn't so friendly, but the bartenders were a great lot. read more
