| - A lot of reviewers wrote about Mac's as if it were a bar (or not a whole lot more than bar). Yeah, there is a bar, but, I've been there many times -- sometimes once a week -- and for the most part the people sitting at the bar are conversational and mindful that there are a lot more people there to eat breakfast, lunch, or dinner. (Mostly the latter two if your agenda is sitting on a bar stool for a while.) Once, a guy was totally bombed and, well, a complete jerk. But just once. If you haven't been to Mac's in quite a while, they have doubled in size (the bird feeder store next door closed ... sad). But, Mac's now holds twice as many diners, the wait staff has never been slow for me, the prices are great, and I've tried most menu items and each one was delicious. So don't discount Mac's as a dive bar. It's a restaurant; like many, yeah, there's a bar and a choice of TVs with sports games showing. But that's really a small portion of the place. Go for the food and the wait staff who remember you each time you visit (or that you haven't swung by in a while). Mac's is outstanding among south Tempe's offerings.
