We've been there a few times, so this review is overdue.
This is not your average mac and cheese place. The first time we were there, the special of the week was lobster mac and cheese with tarragon cream sauce with sherry and caramelized shallots. Um, yeah.
That first time, Craig had the Buffalo chicken. Chunks of chicken dredged in Buffalo sauce, mixed into macaroni with gorgonzola. I had the Cheeseburger - ground beef, cheddar, roasted tomatoes, caramelized onions, and bits of pickle! We also had the weekly special of fried white cheddar triangles with compotes (blueberry, apple cilantro). Which. Were. AWESOME. Especially the apple cilantro compote.
The next time we went, I picked up takeout for Craig at work. I got the Cheeseburger (why mess with perfection?), and for Craig I got the Chipotle Chicken BBQ (american cheddar, chicken cutlet, roasted corn, cilantro, chipotle BBQ) and the Mexi (pepper jack, chorizo, seasoned ground beef, pico de gallo). Home run all the way 'round.
This past weekend, our friend ordered the Mushroom Swiss (sauteed mushrooms, port wine cream, smoked gouda) with bacon. She was thrilled with her food. I think she might have proposed to the chef.
I had the Cheesesteak, but I subbed out the roasted tomatoes for the green peppers (I can't eat them). It was wonderful. Nice chunks of ribeye, bits of onions, chunks of tomatoes. Teh awesome.
Craig had the Fiery Steak. Pepperjack cheese, ribeye, spicy pepper blend (kinda like sriracha), broccoli, cilantro soy. He loved it, but said it was really spicy. REALLY SPICY. Because he's pretty resilient to hot food, so if he says it's hot, it's HOT.
We also got some of the mac balls. These are deep-fried mac and cheese balls, with add-ins. We had the mac and cheese and bacon, which were okay (the tomato cream dipping sauce is AMAZING. These people need to bottle this stuff and market it). The triple cheddar cranberry mac balls were phenomenal. Chunks of cranberries mixed into mac and cheese? Awesome to the max.
Summation: This. Place. ROCKS. Go there.
