Customer Reviews
Went here on a whim ended up being some of the best food I’ve ever had. The fish is always so delicious. The batter on the fried scallops is delicious. The raw bar amazing our server couldn’t have been sweeter or nicer. Fist time with oyster shooters. Drinks were great. Cannot tell you how good the miso soup is, it is amazing and so is the fish with the saffron broth. We ended up going back 4 more times that was all this past summer can’t wait for them to reopen.
Mac’s Shack is a great spot for fresh seafood and a relaxed coastal vibe. The oysters were excellent- fresh, briny, and perfectly chilled. Shrimp and fish dishes were flavorful, and the fish and chips were crispy and satisfying. The fish tacos were served deconstructed, with the fish in its own dish and sides of guacamole, pico de gallo, pickled onions, and chopped onions in some delicious vinegar mix. You assemble the tacos yourself, which was fun, though the tortillas stuck together a bit. The only miss was the truffle fries—too oily—but the staff handled it graciously and took them off the check, which I really appreciated. I also tried the key lime pie to go; the flavor was nice, but the texture was too wet for my taste. Overall, great seafood, friendly service, and a spot I’d retur
My wife and I agree that our meals today were some of the best we’ve ever had (Bluefish baked with ritz cracker covering and mashed potatoes and creamy spinach with truffle oil). Our companions had crunchy crab sushi and fried oysters - excellent. Dessert was key lime pie. Perfect. Our waitperson, Miss Emma, was attentive and gracious. Sitting in the outdoor/covered patio area on this beautiful autumn day overlooking the marsh was just relaxing and lovely. A rare, memorable experience when all the pieces come together like that. Well done, Mac’s Shack.
I’ve never had a lobster roll so finally decided to try the hot one here. Pretty bland and chewy especially for $39 for the small 4oz size. My gin drink was good and the patio views are nice though. It is the end of season right now.
10/10, great food, excellent service. We had a server who was on her second day but we wouldn't have noticed had she not told us. To me this comes down to solid training and good management. Looking forward to making this a staple for my wife and I on future trips to the Cape.
