★★★★☆ 4.0 Craig Allin · Sep 2025

This was the first time visit for my friends and myself. We picked it based on Google reviews and its proximity to the Cannon Valley trailhead. Proved to be a great place for a post ride lunch. There were five of us in the party. One chose pizza which he described as excellent. The rest of us chose from among the great many variations on Mac cheese. These are assembled while your watch behind a a counter somewhat reminiscent of a subway sandwich shop. Then off to the oven. Servings were uniformly large and reasonably priced. The medium pizza proved to be sufficiently large for two, possibly three people. Three of the four mac and cheese orders in my party left food in the oven so to speak.

Absolutely loved The Mac Shack in Red Wing! I rode high in the Texas Biscuit Burrito—flaky, savory, and packed with flavor. My friends had the Buffalo Chicken Mac Burrito, Philly Cheesesteak Mac, and the Low Decay Dirt Hot Mac. Each dish was unique, wildly flavorful, and totally worth trying. Creative comfort food done right. Five stars without hesitation. Can’t wait to go back and try more!

★★★★★ 5.0 Chris St. Amant · Feb 2026

Absolutely delicious, got the Texas Twinkie Mac and the daily special Street Taco Mac as burritos. Phenomenal. My burrito fell apart but I couldn’t care less, still delicious. The staff are super nice and the food comes out quick. The prices may seem high but lord above do you get a ton of food. 2 people could happily split one entree. They also offer gluten free and plant based meat options. 10/10 might go back tomorrow and we don’t live anywhere near red wing.

★★★★★ 5.0 Michelle Bernardy · Jun 2025

Service was very friendly and accommodating. Menu had a lot of variety that pleased everyone in our group of 10. Mac and cheese, burritos, bowls, variation on egg rolls. Everyone left with a full belly and a smile
