Before I went to try this place I read a number of discouraging reviews, so I had pretty low expectations going in. I ordered the Egg-celent and the classic mac and cheese: both were delicious!
A lot of people tend to complain about the portion size: I don't know if they've corrected the issue, but I thought it was A LOT of mac and cheese. I dumped the box out into my pasta bowl at home and it was oozing out of the bowl: could not finish my dish!
The fried poached egg on "Eggcelent"was a unique touch that added great texture to the dish. The fontina cheese was nice and subtle, which was great for carrying the bacon, house made ketchup, and hot sauce. Another thing I liked was that it was not oversalted: too often have I been burned by oversalted comfort food!
The regular mac and cheese was gooey, cheesy, and delicious. Only issue with the regular m&c was the rosemary: if you're not a fan or are feeding a young child, you might want to ask it to be left out as its a strong herb. The pieces are rather sharp too: I wonder if they could infuse the sauce with the stalk while making it and pull it out before serving?
Both dishes worked out to be about $20 in total, so I think the price is definitely fair. That kind of pricing is comparable with any gourmet fast food place (like Hero or Ravi Soups), which is what I would compare it to. If you want to be served a hearty meal at $11 dollars a plate, you should go over to the Purple Onion, which is a very different type of restaurant.
YES, I will go back!
