Truly enjoyed their chicken tortilla soup here. It’s definitely a must try!
The rest of the food I have ordered was okay. I got bourbon bbq chicken, but it was a little disapponting how there wasn’t a lot of that bbq sauce at all. I liked the corn and the onion rings, though. Other than that, my husband ordered cheeseburger, but the patty was charred and the fries that came with it wasn’t as seasoned as it was said on the menu.
The service was pretty meh. Our server took my husband’s food when he was still eating. She didn’t ask him if he would like to consume the extra fries he got.

We pulled up hungry, driving back home from the Lions vs Commanders game (Let’s go Lions), walk in and it wasn’t crowded at all so we were seated right away and it was very cozy. Our food assistant was super pleasant and nice. We placed our order and our food came out in a sensible amount of time. Our food and beverages were delicious. I had a shrimp basket and K.L. had a pasta dish. I finished up but he had a sweet tooth and ordered chocolate cake. That cake was huge and we got that to go and he had a few bites while I drove back and went to sleep right after. Lol Overall it was absolutely great and we really enjoyed ourselves great spot to catch a bite.

This chain has been shrinking all across its previous range, but it’s not clear why. We happened to find this one as we were driving by, so thought we’d stop in and see if we could tell what’s going on. No idea.
The menu does not seem significantly different than when these were more common. Still features an all American vibe. We got a Philly cheesesteak and a grilled chicken sandwich. We upgraded one of our sides to the garlic goat cheese mashed potatoes.
Our waiter, while clearly bored, was also lackadaisical and took his time so we ended up spending a lot more time there for lunch than we expected to. Also, I did not find much cheese in my Cheesesteak … while I was looking for it, he came over, pulled on a pair of glasses and pointed to a small glob and said “there it is!” Not exactly what I expected
The food was reasonably good although the tang of the goat cheese did not really work for me.
Overall a reasonable lunch for the price.

I still love Mac and ernas but unfortunately I have to update a 5 star to a 3 stars. Got the ENTREE of the chipotle southwest chicken bowl. My goodness it felt like a ripoff. $12 for the smallest portion I’ve seen literally. Even the server agreed. I was like wow this is all it is??? That is not an entree by any means. The manager came to speak to me afterwards and was really kind. They gifted me some cookies which was nice. But I definitely encouraged him to have corporate change that entree- it needs to be a platter, such as more rice and beans, and perhaps add sour cream. The server Heidi was super nice and always love the ambiance here and will still
Be back.
Old review: Haven’t been in this place in ages. I’d say $14 for a burger fries a side salad and a cookie is a pretty decent deal. Unfortunately they only give you like five fries but it was enough. The salad was excellent. Great variety of greens, well chopped, and even had tomatoes and cucumbers on it. Actually better than Romas! Way better. Always love the ambiance here too. Great low level lighting. Cool decor, the chandeliers, the glass lamps, I forgot how cool this place is. Hope they keep doing well to stay around. We came in for member Mondays with 20% off. The chain doin the best nowadays is Applebees cause they have robust specials for inflation. If this place does they will continue to do well. Burger was excellent as well. One of the best I’ve had in Erie. Better than Applebees or any other restaurant. Quality bun, good portion, def made me a fan. I’ll be back!

I know you can do better!!! You claim unlimited fries to sit down in the restaurant, but when you order it through DoorDash, you get about seven french fries and look at this cookie !! This is supposed to be a soft chewy, white macadamia nut cookie, not a burnt offering!!!

Called in the middle of a day and Ella the hostess answered. We tried to call ahead because we were a party of 16 on a Saturday at dinner time. She was EXTREMELY nice and accommodating. When we arrived we were promptly seated and Haley was our waitress. She was absolutely amazing and very helpful. Especially when 14 of us got the sundae bar after dinner. Cheese skewers and burgers were EXCELLENT and my Clam Chowder was fantastic. My wife said the tortilla soup was very good, And my daughter said her avocado chicken salad was very fresh and tasty. We live a couple of hours away so I can’t say I would frequent but whenever I’m in Erie this is a must stop!

We stopped here for dinner while traveling on the 4th of July. Place was about half full for dinner. The staff were great friendly and helpful. I had the Cuban Sandwich with fries absolutely amazing 5 stars my wife had soup and salad she said it was delicious. The beer was ice cold and the bartender makes awesome mojitos. The restaurant could use a face lift but it was very clean.

While on a road trip a couple of weeks ago, this restaurant was suggested to me when I was looking for places to eat in the Erie, PA area.
Let me say, the food and atmosphere were great. I had the Cajun Chicken Alfredo and it was delicious.
The food was reasonably priced and the restaurant was very clean.
The thing that stood out the most was the staff, particularly the Manager, Rachel. She was friendly, knowledgeable, and welcoming.
This was a pleasant surprise and a refreshing experience all the way around. I recommend if you are in the area, and I would definitely eat there again the next time I’m in Erie.

It has been awhile since I dined here due to moving out of state but so glad I came back recently. Two of us had very good, very filling and hot meals. Service was great, prices were good and portions were great. We ordered a Philly steak platter and a crunchy shrimp platter (Lent menu) with unlimited fries!! Can’t wait to return!
