We went here on a late Sunday night. You order at the window and there are cute plenty of seating areas outside. I believe the owner or manager was there training a new employee we were there. He was nice and patient with us. Service was good. We thought the ice cream were hit or miss.

Been here a few times since moving to the area. Ice cream is delicious and portion sizes are reasonable for the price. However, the last time I was there, there was nobody at the window to take my order, just some gentleman standing in the back that seemed to be busy and didn't have a care for looking to see if there was a customer waiting. So I just left.

Come for the ice cream but do not come for the food. The fries were never cooked all the way through and the cheese and meat sauce isn’t good(mac fries). The Mac burger is disgusting. I had better burgers from Stewart’s. Ice cream is a yes but the food itself is horrible. Avoid that at all costs. I paid $25 for this and I regret it.

We stumbled upon Mac’s when we were killing time before an event. Have tried numerous places for ice cream in the area but this place has risen to the top of our favorites. This review is solely about their Italian Ice and Sorbet. I can’t speak to the rest of the delicious-sounding menu. The homemade lemon ice is really good but even better is the creamy delicious homemade mango sorbet. We are huge fans!! I want some now! Doesn’t this photo make you want to go get some now? It should! You should!
