This was such an amazing experience, I feel in love with my first bite! I got a medium cheeseburger Mac and cheese and my boyfriend had a small the classic. I’ll admit I was really mad when they didn’t give me my order in those cute containers that everyone talks about, and I ordered a medium too. It’s truly the only reason I came here to take a picture with the containers. The place is extremely small we were lucky we had seats before it got packed! This was sooo good I would definitely recommend it, and my wait wasn’t 20mins it was like 10 which is fine.

The food looked better than it tasted. The service could be better for the price I was paying, I would’ve been better going to s’mac.

Stop by and got the lobster Mac and cheese. For the size it is pricey and taste is mediocre. The store is really small with limited seating if you decide to eat there.

I tried the carbonada and it was super delicious, they took a while to make it but I understood that for it to be that delicious it has to be freshly cooked, the staff was super friendly, the location is pretty small and very casual, but over all I cant wait to go back and try a new flavor.

Omg this Macbar smacks the hell outta S’mac…and the Margarita Mac is amazing with it piping hot that the cheese is so good melted and when you dig in the flavors are so tasty and filling I had to take it home and it was so good a second time!!! I don’t eat just anyone’s mac and cheese but this place almost makes it better than me… okay maybe the Margarita the medium size macaroni noodle shape container is so cool original… the spot is small but worth it!

After a long day of shopping in SoHo, this is definitely a place to visit if you’re craving mac&cheese. They make it fresh o order. The service isnt the quickest but you wont regret it. Maybe a 15 – 20 minute wait. A good suggestion is to walk around the area to distract time, theres an american apparel factory store around the corner and a brandy melville just down the block. They recently upgraded their utensils. They have connected forks and knives, its pretty cool. If you want the cool macaroni looking box, then order the medium size. Although the small is pretty filling for a small size. I believe it was around $ 7 for a small. The seating is squished. If the place was bigger, and more out in the open, it’d be way popular than it already is. And definitely more crowded. It is DELICIOUS.

DELICIOUSSSSSS!!! Whenever i’m hungry, I always think about this place first. I’ve been here a couple times and so far they had really good service. I always get a small four cheese(recommend). I would recommend you get the small or medium size of whichever mac and cheese you’re getting. Definitely coming back!

I absolutely love the Margarita I got the last time I came for a visit. The only downfall is that they no longer have the cute yellow fork and knife and I waited over 20 minutes for my food, even though I was told it was a 15 minute wait. Luckily, I came just in time when these couple left so there was a free table waiting for me. I’d definitely come back to try other mac and cheese when I get the chance to.

This is a nice place to indulge in Mac and Cheese after a long day of shopping in SoHo. Atmosphere: –It was really small in here but you can tell that the workers work efficiently with the space that’s available. –Since the restaurant is so small, there is a lot of steam that comes out of the kitchen at times but there are also a lot of vents that they try to contain the steam with. –There was very limited seating. Service: –The cashier was very quick to take our order and was also in charge of packing each order. Food: –The menu was very easy to understand because everything was listed in each Mac and Cheese. –There is a 20 minute wait time per order. –Get the medium size if you want the cool macaroni box. –Cheeseburger Mac(Medium-$ 9.50) This was perfectly cheesy. There were small amounts of ground beef throughout this mac and cheese. –Margarita Mac(Medium-$ 8.99) This had a lighter flavor than the Cheeseburger Mac. I liked how it tasted fresh because of the basil.

I happen to love macbar! The fact that each order is made fresh to order is what makes it even more delicious. Every time I’ve been here I’ve always had the lobster mac n cheese which is heavenly and full of flavor. They also put a good amount of lobster in your order so you’re not just paying for added flavor but actual bits of lobster. I’ve also had the stroganoff which is equally as good. Their both crispy on top and cheesy altogether. But… They SAY it’ll take 20 minutes for the order, which is why every time I come by here I call in advance so I decrease my waiting time. However! As I write this review, I called and placed my order at 720pm and it is now 815pm and I am still waiting for my order. The only excuse the cashier can tell me is another 5 minutes. Telling people it’s 20 minutes and having them wait for an hour is ridiculous. Watching people come in ordering their food and leaving with their food before me, is unacceptable.

I have to admit, I enjoyed the Mac and cheese. I had the margarita Mac and it was very cheesy, well seasoned and delicious. The only issues are the wait time, which when I ordered I was told it would be 20 minutes and I ended up waiting for about 45 minutes in a pretty small waiting area, which was the second issue. I saw a few people walk out after ordering because it was taking too long and they had an appointment. Other than that, I’d probably do takeout from here again, it’s not dine in friendly though.

Everyone loves mac and cheese right? It’s a no brainer. Offered are a few different selections and cheeses. The menu is pretty self explanatory and simple as is the set up of the place. The wall is lined with a cushioned bench with round tables in front of them and a few scattered stools. It’s definitely a place to go for a quick bite, not a meal. Sometimes it’s a little crowded during summer/fall nights. I ordered a medium lobster mac, a must try! There was a nice amount of lobster baked perfectly inside, chunky pieces too.

I first tried MacBar quite some time ago, but I went IN with their Lobster Mac n’ Cheese and for a non-fancy, fast food type Mac place — it was surprisingly fantastic! My former coworker went with their Mayan Chipotle and my former boss went with the Lobster Mac as well. My pasta was well cooked, the sauce could have definitely been creamier, but they were generous with the lobster and after I added some hot sauce, it was all good! Overall portion sizes here could use some work given the prices, but it was a work lunch and thus, complimentary. Huzzah! Would I come back here again? If I’m in the neighborhood, in a pinch and not craving my favorite pizza spot, then sure! Also, just a heads up that this place is pretty tiny if you’re hoping to have nice casual sit-down mac and cheese experience. You’re much better off grabbing your food and eating it elsewhere. Also be mindful of coming here around lunch time as it does get very crowded and your food make take some time to come out.

I’m giving this place 2 stars because I just didn’t like the food… The restaurant itself is very small and sits maybe 15 people… I ordered the Lobsta mac & cheese which was OK at best, it kind of had a smokiness to it which I personally didn’t like. I can say it did have a lot of «lobsta». I also ordered the Four cheese mac & cheese which was also just OK. To sum it up as a mac & cheese lover I’ve definitely had much better mac & cheese which is surprising since this place specializes in it…

This spot serves good Mac and Cheese but being the Mac and Cheese lover I am, I have eaten a lot better. I am obsessed with Mac and Cheese even have an occasional dream here and there of delicious Mac and Cheese so my standards are quite high. This spot resembles solid fast-food quality Mac and Cheese with exotic flavors. I tried the Lobster Mac and really don’t agree with the rave. Maybe people just like it cuz lobster is fancy lol. I didn’t think it was flavored well and wish there was a hint of lobster flavor with the cheese and not just Mac and Cheese with lobster chunks. Overall it was okay but I like the Chipotle Mayan Chicken a lot better and would still consider it decent. The chipotle flavor infused with cheese was good but I was a little disappointed when I finished my tray and realized I only got 2 small slivers of chicken. I spent most of my meal looking for the chicken, wah. It was flavored well though and liked the way the green onion complimented the dish. It was very comparable to S’MAC but would have to say S’MAC is a little better.

Came with my bf last night and it was empty when we got there. No lines = score!!! We ordered the Mac Stroganoff as well as the Mayan Chipotle, both in large sizes. Was initially disappointed when we didn’t get the cute macaroni containers everyone was talking about. But we were served our food nice and hot and it smelled amazing. I couldn’t stop licking my lips and after tasting a few bites, it definitely didn’t disappoint. The Mac and cheese was gooey deliciousness! It was covered in a thick layer of cheese on top which later, my bf and I found to be too overwhelming especially in the Stroganoff. After eating about half our food, it became kind of too cheesy to eat but was still overall pretty good. Also, I liked how the yellow walls and the comfortable seats with pillows made this place feel instantly cozy. Definitely a good Macbar vibe but I think more seatings would be better. Would also appreciate a larger drink selection. Will come back to try the other Mac and cheese options like the Lobster Mac which sounds BOMB.

Stopped by for lunch for take out. Takes at least 15 from order to walking out with your food. Interior is very small with limited seating. Three tiny tables that will fit three people at most. I think most people opt for take out given the space limit. I had the cheeseburger Mac, which had small pieces of burger. I didn’t think it was too different from the classic Mac, so I probably won’t get it again. Apparently the margarita Mac is the customer favorite, so that’ll be my next choice. The small size does not come with a fun macaroni shaped container. Medium was the perfect portion for me– I felt lazy and full after finishing. The large is definitely enough to share between two of neither if you arent starving. I thought the plastic container was pretty cool so wanted one and got the medium size, but in retrospect I don’t know what I’ll use the container for anymore. Kinda wishing they’d lower the price by a dollar drop the plastic container, or made it a option that people can opt into by paying an extra dollar or something. Anyhow. If you come by at busy times, you may wait up to 25 minutes before you walk out with your cheesy prize.

I’m a big fan of Mac & Cheese. I had this place bookmarked as a place I wanted to try. This place is really tiny with limited seating, but it felt like a cozy spot to have Mac & Cheese. The menu is all about Mac & Cheese. Different kinds just depends what are you in the mood for. I ordered the Mac Shroom and the Mac Stroganoff. Both had good flavor and taste. Really cheesy and gooey. It was what I expect out of a good Mac & Cheese. If you order a medium or large order, it will come in a souvenir macaroni elbow. You can took home and use it for something else.

Decided to give this place a shot despite the conflicting reviews and I thought that it was pretty good. I ordered the small Lobster Mac and I gotta say I enjoyed it. I was afraid to get the lobster as that could be a hit or miss. They advertise tender lobster and that is indeed what it was. The small size was more than enough as the cheese will become overwhelming rather quickly. Cant imagine eating any more than that. This place is TINY so seating is limited. Someone wrote that the place next door gets they’re Mac from here which wouldn’t be surprising probably at a more expensive price just because its on a plate rather than in a tin. Have I had better Lobster Mac, sure. But for fast food this was pretty good!

I have heard so many good things about this place. So while in Soho I dropped in. I had been warned by friends and reviews that I read that this place was really small and few tables. I ordered the Lobsta Mac N Cheese and my husband ordered the cheeseburger mac n cheese. I place my order with the gentleman at the counter and he informed me it would be a 15 – 20 minute wait for the food and I told him that is okay. There were a total of 3 tables and all were occupied and I figured once our food was done we could nab a table. Our food came out and we grabbed a seat and dived in. The lobster mac n cheese was very good and extremely cheesy and plenty of lobster throughout the dish. I tried my husband cheeseburger mac n cheese and it was rather bland and almost reminded me of hamburger helper. Since they have so many types of mac n cheese I will be back to conquer the menu. Only thing that could make this place better is if the gentleman who was handling my order didn’t seem annoyed or as if customers were bothering him. Hence the reason I gave them 4 stars instead of 5. OVERALLGREATESTABLISHMENTAND I WILLBEBACK ;)
