   Our waiter, Gage, was attentive and friendly. Food was good- mob queso always!! Blackened bayou pasta was excellent, steak was more medium than medium rare but my companion is too kind to make a fuss; my daughter and I split a pasta dish which was missing something- a bit bland- green chile chicken was missing the green chile oomph .

   Very nice meal. I would have given five stars, except our food came out luke warm. My wife had the side salad and scallops. I had the caprese salad and the filet. Salads were very good. Entrees were very good except for the fact they were not hot. Seasoning and sides were excellent. Good wine list, including by the glass. Service was very good. Manager wanted to compensate us in some way, but I did not feel that he needed to. Highly recommend Mac Joe's. One of my favorite restaurants in Amarillo. Hopefully no more luke warm food.

   One of the best steaks I have eaten in a while. The surf and turf special was creative with the creole seasoning and very tasty.

   Service was excellent! Fried green tomatoes were outstanding! Confetti spaghetti had way too much pasta and not enough veggies. The flavor wasn’t like it normally is, didn’t like. Pork was overcooked. If we hadn’t been in a rush we would have sent our food back. Disappointing.
   

   Macaroni Joe'sResponded on December 14, 2024

   Thank you for your feedback. We're glad to hear that the service and fried green tomatoes met your expectations. However, we're sorry to learn that the confetti spaghetti and pork did not meet the usual standard. We take pride in delivering great meals, and your comments about the dish's flavor, portion size, and the overcooked pork are important for us to address. We truly apologize for the disappointment, and we'll make sure to review these areas for improvement. We hope you’ll give us another chance to provide you with the quality you expect. Mac Joes

    The food and cocktails were completely delicious, as usual. We always enjoy the ambience. Our server, Gage, was the best of the best! There were 7 of us and he was beyond thoughtful with everyone’s needs; he was thinking of things before we realized we needed it! A true gentleman. Thank you for a fun Thanksgiving Eve!
