We had sworn to never go back to Macaroni Grill, specially the one at Gold Dust, where we have had quite horrible experiences (as you can probably tell by the bad rating they have, 2.5 stars).
Came here today for a work lunch (not my place of choice, obviously) but our server Mary took excellent care of us and made this overall a great experience. Kudos to Mary, she was very friendly and accommodating to our big group (10+)
They no longer have the warm spinach salad with scallops on the menu but she mentioned I could still order them. I got it without pine nuts (again) but when I mentioned to Mary she promptly took care of it.
Again, the food was good, but what made this a great experience was out server Mary.
