The food was very good and service was excellent. The atmosphere is good because unlike some restaurants, it isn’t super noisy or making diners subject to really loud music. Would definitely recommend it for anyone looking for good, American-style food.

The Macintosh was a delightful place to celebrate a birthday. Their cocktails are delicious and unique, and the food (from apps to desert) was delicious. Our server Daniel was so sweet and helped us pick out / improve our meals with added proteins. He spoke to the texture of food and explained the flavor palate. I definitely recommend the bread pudding for dessert. It was the PERFECT end to our enjoyable meal.

This is my third time here and my personal menu choices were spot on each time! The first time was the salmon and risotto. It was very good. The 2nd time Christmas Eve dinner, with my fiancé. I tired the salmon and salad combo with the grassroots salad and the smoked salmon.. it’s fascinating and delicious! My fiancé got the shrimp and Gita which was amazing too. We tried the bread pudding dessert and out delightful server brought us the butterscotch pecan pie to try. We ate both of them gone! Third time I went couple days after New Year to celebrate Christmas with my fiancé, daughter and her boyfriend. I was going to get something new but why when that salmon and salad combo is anything I could ever want and it did not disappoint! The smoked salmon is chilled which has this amazing flavors and the sauce that comes with it tops it off greats the grassroots salad is wonderful but make sure you like those ingredients because not many people like beets, I’ve found! My daughter had the shrimp and grits, again wonderful? Her boyfriend had the redfish which I didn’t taste but they said it was great. My fiancé tried the short ribs and we went impressed.. they were just ok and maybe a little dry.. the server was able to get something else and our evening was closed out with the bread pudding and butterscotch pecan pie disappearing yet again. The Macintosh is my new favor place for a nice dinner out!

Great Friday night special for Halibut Fish and Chips. We all ordered the special but had 3 separate desserts. The Key Lime Pie, Brownie, and bread pudding. All were oversized and well worth the price. Service was perfect and extremely attentive. This restaurant is very well run and the food is spot on. We had a wonderful dinner with our family.

One person had ribs but they didn’t bring any Barbecue Sauce; another had hot tea-the water came in a cup with a Trader Joe’s t bag on the saucer; later asked for more tea and they said a new t bag will cost you; left overs were packaged in a small brown bag with no handle. Food was great!!!

Love the menu options but quality of food is a little lacking - I got the twisted noodle salad with steak and had to return it due to the steak being not edible and full of fat, but the new steak was also not edible…maybe they just got a bad batch?? The salad part was delicious but maybe stick to chicken and fish here. Also they overuse peppers in the poke lettuce wraps as filler….service was great!!
