Mac's Chop House

This was our second time but with reservations. We were excited to go for our wedding anniversary and sit upstairs in the “reserved” area. I had put it was our anniversary in the open table reservation and asked for booth or a private table. The first time we went our server was fantastic, asked about allergies (I have gluten and egg), explained the menu in detail, answered questions, let us know about steak cuts, and drinks. 10/10. We were very excited to drive across town and even skipped our normal anniversary spot for this one. However, as soon as this server showed up the vibe was off. We didn’t get a happy anniversary card like everyone else that night. We were treated like we didn’t belong by our server. I am an observer, and the way other tables were treated around us by the same server was completely different. He was friendly, open, talkative, interactive with every other table. Again, with us it was like we were a problem and didn’t belong. It was extremely loud, we could barely hear each other. The tables were almost on top of each other. I would have rather been downstairs at a booth like I had requested. My husband’s drink was wrong, he wanted the regular old fashioned but he got the smoked one which he does not like. The server didn’t try to explain the drinks to us. We were brought a free dessert but unfortunately since no one asked about my allergies, I couldn’t eat it. My husband came specifically for the bread pudding, which he enjoyed. We will not be coming back. It was a miserable experience for a wedding anniversary dinner and if someone is looking for a romantic, swanky, classy, upscale ambiance this is not it. I wish we had our first server.

That was an amazing experience with the greatest steak I've ever tasted, I didn't even know barrel cut filet was a thing! Our waiter was also extremely knowledgeable about gluten issues.
