Reviews of Mac's Steak House
B. T.
Very friendly staff and kudos to the person who put the virgin mojito mocktail on the menu it was sublime. Very refreshing on a hot summer day. I had sirloin steak and was cooked medium rare to perfection.
D. T.
Awesome waiting staff, prompt, efficient, friendly, informative and knowledgeable.
Food was on point. We had lamb shanks. Cooked to perfection with meat falling off the bone. Scrumptious..
Just a little bit more ice in my gin and all would of been spot on.
You won't be disappointed 🖐
E.
We walked in for an early dinner and were seated right away. Service was excellent. I had the beetroot and goats cheese salad for entree. It was so delicious! I then had the duck confit and gnocchi with hoisin sauce for my main. It was so delicious and reminded me of the duck pancakes except with gnocchi. Everybody loved their meals. My husband had the lamb rump and he said it was cooked perfectly. We sat outside but it was warm because they had the heaters on.
A. R.
Had an early dinner at Mac's Steak House. Great service and fantastic food on a rainy Saturday night. I ordered Angus Sirloin (medium rare) and my partner ordered Pork Belly from the dinner specials. The waiter that attended our table was very attentive. He knows his stuff very well. Would love to come back in the future when we visit Rotorua.
P. B.
Great place to eat. Had the special that was on the board outside restaurant. It was awesome and really friendly staff so a very nice place to eat. And if you don't finish your meal you can have a doggy bag and takeaway. You have to try it. By the way I had the steak mushroom sauce.
Go try for yourself
D. P. (.
The food was amazing! I ordered the steak and my partner ordered the Pasta and we loved it! The pancakes were immaculate but we were so full we couldn't finish them lol! 10/10 would recommend!
D. R.
I haven't been to Mac's for at least 10 year.
This visit truly surprised me.
The menu is good and prices very good.
One of our party had the steak for lunch. It was exceptional value for money.
The only issue was the squid salad. It was very chewy. I dont do squid so I have to believe the person who ordered it.
I will be going back
E. R.
Beautiful meals and Outstanding service. We ordered eggs bene, nachos and the D Rump. Eggs and steak were cooked perfectly (this has not always been the case for us at other restaurants) Next time we will remember to take photos to post here. Highly recommend!
W.
Mac's has done a great job. The menu is awesome. The Wakanui ribeye was cooked to perfection, absolutely melt in the mouth. Great kids menu. Service was awesome. Thoroughly recommend.
Thank you team. Awesome experience!
G. H.
Reasonable meals and the mushroom sauce is great. Only gets 3 stars. 6 diners and 3 were given the lunch menu instead of the dinner menu. You spend ages making a decision only to then be told you can't have it. To be fair, after a bit of negoiation they made what we wanted, but weren't really happy about it.
A. F.
Good food, good service, reasonable prices. Nice ambience. Recommend.
Good sized kids meals too.
Confit duck, bok choy, gnocchi, crispy shallots and hoisin sauce.
Lamb shank.
Sous vide scotch with truffle mash - yum
J.
Excellent service and food. Great atmosphere as part of the Eats Streat. Prices are super reasonable considering the high quality.
R. L.
The restaurant had a nice atmosphere. We were a big group with children but the waiter did a very competent job taking orders. The meals came out in good time and were delivered to the right place. They also provided a dessert with a candle for the birthday girl without being asked and for free. We were impressed.
C. C.
I feel I'll be a little generous because it didnt give me food poisoning at least, but overall the service wasn't great - we sat down for a good 10min before someone brought over the menu. For entree we ordered the bread selection with spread, but the hummus was a little dry and grainy. For the steak i chose medium rare, but it came pretty well done.... really not the best experience for a steak house..
V. J.
Me and my partner were in rotorua for 3 days and came here for breakfast the first day and ate out here everytime since. The wait staff and management were great. And service was outstanding. On the Saturday night I had the Angus scotch. It was cooked perfectly. I couldn't fault this place if I tried. One of the best dinning experiences of my life. Great jobs Macs team.
A. T.
The reviews here don't do this place justice. About 35 NZD for the best steak and sides I've had in years. Great New Zealand craft beer on tap, too. Quick and polite service. I came just after 8PM and they served me right away. I'd come here all the time if I lived in the area.
S.
Good Sirloin, great mash. Definitely would recommend getting the Sous Vide as recommended (Med rare).
A. C.
We were a table of 4 and served us quite promptly. The food was good and decent; the balsamic reduction isn't really necessary - it was already flavourful with the meat.
The service was attentive and prompt. Shout to our server who looked about to throw a chair when he was dealing with a table of 8 people who looked really indecisive but maintain composure and professionalism.
Highly recommended if you're looking for a steak house in Rotorua.
T.
I had my daughter's 18th birthday lunch here ..I had high expectations for my steak meal salad & chips to be just how I have always but they weren't on their game, they missed some orders, my steak was little & dry even for well done I might give them another day next month to redeem themselves.
C. J.
Really nice meal, attentive and friendly wait staff, the pricing is as you'd expect from a tourist town but the atmosphere and food was worth it.
M. W.
Had a great meal! The restaurant was packed, but the service was still efficient and relaxed. Drinks and starters came out fast, and mains came out surprisingly quickly considering how busy it was. All our meals were cooked perfectly, my rib-eye was stunning - a medium-rare package of goodness 😊 Highly recommended!
H. W.
Mmm great location and we loved the fire pit but the steak was waaaay overcooked. I ordered medium and got very well done. Fries were ok, nothing special. I'd try somewhere else on eat streat.
E.
All these bad reviews are clearly from people who diddnt get the bbq pork ribs.
On top of that the service was 8/10 the others I was dining with all enjoyed their meals too
I would recommend to every one
t.
Wow such a nice place for a meal out the steaks are to die for service and ambience 5 stars.thankyou.
A. A.
One of those places that wasn't atrocious but has huge room for improvement and is surrounded by some serious competition.
Good:
- fantastic thick battered onion rings
- our waiter let us sample the tap cider when we couldn't decide on a drink
- the $29 menu (2 courses from a set menu) was great for us (available 1730 to 1930)
- the artisan bread & garlic bread starters were excellent
- lakeman beer 👌
The not so good:
- Our group of 3 dined early on a Friday at 5pm and despite only five other tables the drinks were noticeable slow to arrive.
- our medium rare steaks were just a touch overdone which wasn't a deal breaker but keep in mind this is a steakhouse
- the pepper on our table was empty
- our cutlery jar had only 1x fork in it
- service was friendly but inattentive
So overall it was an ok dining experience but I don't think I'd recommend it. The attention to detail was lacking and in this dog eat dog world of dining out those things are important. Ultimately other establishments on Eat St are probably better.
Do not dine here if wanting a cocktail.
K.
Good food. Good service. Some menu changes that caused my friend some difficulties in ordering as she was GF.
H. X.
Food was nice, atmosphere was great, service staff was friendly. The only downside was slightly slow service of food, but the food came together and were warm and freshly cooked.
S. I.
Beautiful food, great size portions, awesome service
w.
Had lunch here last Saturday. Had a great time.the food was amazing! My partner had scotch fillet he said it was the best steak he has ever had so compliments to the chef.the staff were also fantastic! Thankyou for making our day.
D. S. (.
The best food and most of all, the best staff - keep coming back here year after year - if you haven’t already, go here - couldn’t ask for better!!! We will always be back!!
A. L.
Simple but nice food at reasonable price.
Excellent service from the staff.
T.
Great food, friendly and prompt service and a wonderful surprise chocolate brownie for my daughter on her birthday
P.
Great meal and good service. Thoroughly enjoyed by our whole family. Thank you. 😊
M.
Was mean as, as always. But got to my steak did you put old socks In it cos that was off..only giving stars coz nice but rotten strak
A. M.
What an amazing place and amazing staff!
Function for 17 with days notice and they couldn't do enough for us.
Fantastic food, fantastic atmosphere, fantastic personal!
Thank you all so much for creating such a magical night for us.
S. A.
The customer service is awesome, we are always greeted with a smile. The food is cooked well and tastes delicious with good portion sizes. The daily meal deals have a vast selection and are a great idea to keep customers in and costs down. We will definitely keep coming back.
A.
Yummy fish n chips and a jug if lemon lime and bitters. Fast, friendly service
M.
We went today with a large group of friends (more than 20 people). The food was great, orders were accurately made and food was ready in reasonable time. Staff are friendly and helpful. Thank you 👍
A. L.
Friendly service. We didn't have to wait too long for our food. Good portion size for the price.
R. C.
I had a lovely lamb rack, well cooked & crispy, as asked for. The boys had steak but they were received around the wrong way, neither was happy. However, I still recommend this place, as my dinner was excellent & the chef did as asked.
L.
Stellar service and excellent food. The waiters and waitresses very very attentive and considerate. We had Brisket which was amazing as well as tiramisu with chocolate and coffee affrogato. All was delicious!
M.
Lovely, efficient staff and a great location. It's a bit overpriced considering the small size and the simplicity of the meals, but that's probably to be expected considering it is in a tourist hotspot.
L. W. (.
Being vegan, there weren't many options, but husband wanted seafood chowder so came here. I was tossing up between the avo on toast and bread with selection of dips. I went with bread and dips and asked if I could have a side of avo and was told no. So customer service isn't very good.
T.
Lovely seafood pasta, couldn't eat it all was so much
V.
Great food with very friendly staff, really loved the experience
:. T. A. M.
Managed to get a reservation at late notice and we had a very enjoyable meal. Great service and super friendly and polite. Thanks for a lovely dinner and night....
K.
Great customer service, perfectly cooked steak, amazing mushroom sauce very happy and will be back
C.
Great food and atmosphere, our group had a great time.
H.
This review is based on a lunch experience.
Pancakes and seafood chowder.
Cappuccino with cinnamon on top
and Latte with soymilk.
Two nicely cooked huge pancakes with two sweet sauces: maple syrup and strawberry syrup and sprinkled icing sugar and creams.
Nicely presented and it was delicious.
Seafood chowder was nice and hot, creamy and a lots of seafoods in there with crispy warmed two pieces of breads.
Just good portion for a lunch or a brunch.
Both Coffee were nice. We enjoyed them.
We were there around 11: 30 am.
We had left our dog in our car as we know most of restaurants aren't allowing pets in their premises. However I was cheeky and asked if our dog can be with us.
A nice and kind waiter looked around and allowed us to have our dog out door seating area and explained that dogs normally aren't allowed but no other customers were there so in that one occasion we were allowed to havr our dog with us while we were having our meals.: very kind indeed!.
Also the waiter brought a bowl of water for my dog as well.
I will definitely go there again: next time though, I won't take my dog.
We travel Auckland via Rotorua. It takes longer time but we love Rotorua.: this brunch experience is one of the reasons why.
J.
After a long wait (1 hr) we finally received our food which actually made up for the wait time and was enjoyed - steak, ribs and mussels were delish!! Although we’re disappointed in the service and unfriendly manner when asking for drinks etc
J.
Tried to find a place for a group of 10 with no booking and these guys were awesome. Quick on food delivery and everything was great. Even provided some treats for a birthday too!
P.
Great evening
Good service, superb meal
Coming back - try the veal
J.
My husband and i wanted a nice lunch for my birthday, macs had the most beautiful service from staff, we were seated quickly and comfortably.. our waiter was awesome and quick!! We ordered the sirlion steak meal each and that was surpreme!! Affordable, every part of the meal beautifully tasteful and cooked/made to perfection.. mushroom sauce PERFECT!! Highly recomend and will visit again and again every time we stay!!
C. K.
This is located among heaps of eateries, so the vibe is great. The place has a cosy close feeling but is still spacious enough. The menu is varied so there are choices for herbivores and carnivores, the portions were a decent size and tasted good, and the prices were very reasonable for the food quality.
We paid 130 for 5 mains and 6 drinks for brunch.
So pretty good for rotorua central.
Highlight was actually the coffee. The barista is great, and makes a delicious mocha and cappuccino. (I had both in one sitting)
I recommend going for breakfast or lunch. Especially when hungover. Yum
J.
Special birthday treat out, the wife and I enjoyed having a few hours away from the kids. However it would also be ideal for family of any age.
Gorgeous good, friendly service, cold beer.
M.
Great customer service and lovely atmosphere. Food was delicious.
L. S.
Hands down the best meal out I've ever had. Would consider travelling from Auckland just to eat here again, the whole meal was perfect.
We started with the garlic bread which I was hesitant about at first but it was SO good!!! I had the lamb rump for mains and it was beautiful, so tender and full of flavour. For desert I had the strawberry cheese cake which was the perfect end to the meal, again super tasty. As well as the best lemon, lime and bitters drink I've had out for a very long time.
The atmosphere was excellent and the staff fantastic, happy polite friendly.
Totally recommend eating here and will definitely be back again.
Thank team for an amazing experience, I'll be raving about this place for quite some time!!!!
B. D.
Went twice in the two days we stayed in Rotorua. Me and my partner couldn't help but go back. Such friendly staff made us feel so welcomed.
Amazing food and the Midori Creme Brûlèe was to die for.
I look forward to coming back.
K.
Had a meal for dinner. Service was great, waiters were welcoming, sirloin steak was yummy and perfectly cooked! No pics sorry as I smashed it! 😋 prices are less expensive for lunch. Very crowded and noisy though as it is in a covered food court in Rotorua city center.
J.
Excellent service. Exceptional meals. I highly recommend Mac's Steak House. 😊
M. P.
Nice food but the beef burger needs more in it. Some bacon and caramelized onions would have been lovely..not keen on mushroom sauce or avocado sauce.
Cooked to perfection tho.
Staff were lovely and friendly
The cook stuffed up my partner's burger but the waiter took it back and made him a new burger.
Superb
Quick to bring out food.
M.
The food is very good, I had the venison cooked medium rare which was excellent. It came out surprisingly quickly considering they were reasonably busy.
We sat outside which was very pleasant, they have gas fires and infrared heaters if it gets cold.
Finished off with desert, had cheesecake which was made in its own glass instead of a slice. Nice touch.
Service good, waiters friendly and attentive.
N. J.
Amazing food and hospitality. We will b back😊
A.
Meal and cocktails were delicious! Staff were friendly and professional, thank you for making my birthday so special guys! <3
M.
Fantastic friendly service! Delicious food at a great price! We went for dinner it was excellent so went back for breakfast and service and food was equally delicious! Great food, price with excellent service and a relaxing atmosphere what more can you ask for!? Highly recommend its our go too when in Rotorua 😊👌
t.
Excellent customer service the food was A+++ good environment keep up good work guys massive efforts
A.
Had an absolutely amazing Alfredo Pasta tonight. Was blown away. Would highly recommend.
B.
Not quite sure on the reviews here. My wife and I had excellent service at Mac’s albeit wasn’t busy. We had the Snapper which was the catch of the day w it risotto. The dish was great.
We also ordered a side of artisan bread and truffle green beans which were both good, but not quite as great as the fish. Definitely not a 2.5 like yelp states in my opinion.
E. -.
I am shocked by the rating and reviews here.
Staff are very friendly and knowledgeable. Service is great meet you at the entrance, show you to a table if able to offer you inside or outside. Bring water to the table. Offer you to order drinks which turn up very quickly. Never found the wait to long for food. I have had the pork belly, lamb rump, lamb shank and tonight the t bone steak. I don't like steak but man I loved my steak tonight. Cooked perfectly, wasn't cold, so tender. The salad was very tastey and the fries were hot.
We come on holiday and after trying few other places we choose to eat here every night as regardless of what we order it is always so good and the service is incredible. Give it a shot reviews aren't always everything!
R. T.
Always nice to walk into a place quite late and still be served a great meal!
A.
Service was good,meal good as well,I had lamb shank ,steve had steak and then I had creme brulee and berry sorbet.well worth it.the price was good for what we had.
C.
We had the eggs benne, garlic bread and a full breakfast - everything was really tasty 🙂. Great value, good size portions, service was quick and the staff are super friendly. 10/10 would recommend.
E.
Food was amazing the only thing we didn't like was the wait staff using phones to record the order. But that's just my dad being picky 😊
L. H.
Service was excellent, and the food equally so. We had Venison, and Rack of Lamb. Both were cooked beautifully- tender and very tasty. Accompanying veg and sauces equally so. I’m not one for lashings of sauce/relish which seems to smother so much of the food served in restaurants these days, so these dishes had just the right amount and complemented, rather than overrode the taste of the meal. A good wine list too. All round great value!
L.
Got a bloody ripper of a deal here, $35 for three courses. Couldn’t even finish all the food! I had the Calamari entree which was just ok, pork ribs for mains which was nice, and brownie for pudding which was really good.
Great value
D.
Food was really good. Service a little slow with a big wait between entree and mains. Can recommend the lamb rump steak and my wife said the duck was amazing.
D. D.
The staff are very attentive. I had the lamb rack which was so soft, just melted in your mouth. The best lamb I've had the only downside to the meal was the sides and sauce, it was all very sweet for my liking. I'd personally ask for a mushroom sauce with mash and veg. Hubby ordered the rib eye however he didnt like his cut of meat.
Our waiter was nice enough to let us try the wine before ordering our glass.
Not bad overall.
K. G.
My family and I had an exceptional dining experience at Macs. Service was prompt. We were seated quickly and our server took good care of us. Always had enough drinks. They even made a special pasta for us and it was delicious. We got exactly what we ordered and it exceeded expectations. Lamb Shank was phenomenal. I would go back again and recommend to anyone looking for a great meal and friendly service!
J.
We have just had a lovely weekend in Rotorua.We went to your restaurant and had the most wonderful food and service will go back there everytime we visit .Thankyou so much for a lovely dinning experience.And for goung the extra mile for us.
S.
Went for a 60th birthday lunch the waiting staff were awesome friendly and helpful 10/10 for them......my food which was a Angus steak with salad. Chips and eggs with cream mushrooms wasn't worth $22.90 $16-18 dollars maybe...I'm not moaning just sharing.. .✌🏾👍🏾indoor and outdoor seating
C.
Took abit of a wait but the food is just superb I say get a kids steak n chips with mushrooms for 12bucks n it ain't little it's very filling
M. C.
The food was simply delicious ! You should try the brownie
M.
Have had a wonderful meal at Macs Steakhouse tonight. Duck pate entree was amazing and the steak main well done cooked to perfection.Will be back again next time visiting Rotorua. Thanks for a wonderful meal
S.
Simply fantastic, great food and the best staff!
N. J.
Great food and great service. We were a group of 4 adults and two small children. A variety of dishes were ordered and everyone of them was well made. The current ratings given to this establishment does not portray an accurate representation of the experience we had.
T.
Had dinner here on arriving to Rotorua 10 July 2020, very busy, but we got a table, service not too bad, not great, as in we had to ask them to come to the table to get more drinks, but always polite staff. Food was great, loved the Lamb Shanks on specials, so tender and juicy, hubby had hashstack also lovely, kids had pasta and burger, our son didnt like the burger as doesnt like onion, and the beef was different, but he is fussy eater...desert lovely, only gripe would be brownie size is small for the price...my opinion of course, but it is a nice brownie. Def will come back.
B. M.
Had a late lunch, the staff were friendly and seated us quickly. Ordered the potato and kumera hash stack (didn’t want anything too heavy) sounded good on paper unfortunately it was missing the kumera, a store bought potato hash brown with salad that left an oily aftertaste was not what I was expecting. Rather disappointing to be honest, the saving grace here is that everyone else enjoyed their meals and the staff were great.
M.
Good food, busy the night I was there.
D.
Dean from Mac's was awesome and made our evening one to remember. A great ambassador for his city, giving us lots of local tips. The food was average but he made up for it. Will definitely return if he's there!
D.
Did a real late booking for two which the got sorted. Seen to quickly and friendly staff. The steak was perfectly cooked as was my wife's venison, especially on a super busy Saturday night. Absolutely lovely food - as was the APA which I got to have on tap for the first time!
W.
We found this place for breakfast thismorning and were comfortable in the area outside. We noticed the waiter was a great customer liasson and being front of house however he was busy and took a while to take our order...our order was finally taken but it took almost 40 minutes from being seated until we got our food.
Unfortunately for me it doesn't get much better...my scrambled eggs was like egg foo yong and strange...the bread was too thick and the bacon was more stewed than fried so I would not go here again for breakfast. I hope that the steak is better...I would rate this place 6 out of 10 and the reason is the service was better than the food
N.
My partner and I went to this restaurant for our anniversary last night - we were turned away as walk ins around 7 (with tables empty with no reserved signs on them) so we made a booking for an hour later.
After about 5 minutes we ordered. Drinks came out promptly however we waited just over an hour for our mains to be bought out (we did not have entrees). The table behind us had been waiting longer than that too. Not once in this hour were we asked if we needed anything such as more drinks or ensured that the food was on its way and we were in the most central part of the building with staff walking past us every two minutes. Food was good once we got it, meat cooked perfectly for lamb and slightly under for venison but glad it tasted good.
C.
Good steak and good service. Lovely outside by the fire
J.
Lovely atmosphere. Steaks were delicious however one was underdone. Chips were disappointing and unfortunately a hair in one of our desserts.
D.
Good service. Big servings of food. Will definitely not leave d resto hungry.
M.
Service was great friendly staff food was great..steaks were very good and even the salads very fresh..well done to all..
D. G.
Does what it says on the tin. We had double cooked belly pork. Crackling was good. Pork served on veg garnish. Meal was good, service good. Somehow the place lacked a distinctive character. I’d happily eat there again to fill a hole but look elsewhere for an experience.
C. P.
A busy night when we visited but service was good. Great dining in "Eat Street" with a large outdoor area providing plenty of activity from the passing public. 4 of us enjoyed a variety of meals from a good menu. BYO is a real bonus. The outdoor under floor heating is a treat in winter, slip your shoes off!!
M.

Did the three course meal and it was so much food for the price! We could barely finish our plates. All the courses were delicious and would definitely recommend. Large portions for low prices!
F.
great ambience.. friendly staff.. amazing food..
V.
Thank you so much for so delicious food 👍🙏
R.
Great food and service and reasonably-priced meals. Two meals we had were pork belly with mashed potatoes and cooked vegetables and Angus sirloin steak with fries and a crispy lettuce salad.
J.
Great steak, was busy on Saturday night but they managed to fit us in, steak was cooked to perfection!
G. P.
Friendly staff, nice environment, decent menu variety, and overall high quality food. Of note, the lamb rump was very tender and juicy. The Caesar salad was generously sized. Salmon appetiser went down very well too.
K.
Service is excellent. Ribbs would never have again as sauce was yuck. Steak and kids meals were good.
J.
Average rating to me. I had the lamb burger and thought it lacked flavor. Nice place and nice atmosphere. The garlic aioli was really good to dip fries in
K.
Excellent service, good food... and a nice atmosphere. Steak was perfectly cooked.
S.
Situated in food alley near Rotorua lake front. Managed to prepare meals for a group of 12 of us who walked up with no booking. Food was well presented, tasty and out in good time ( If you can satisfy a group of teenage girls you are doing pretty well!)
C.
Love, love LOVE the pork belly dish. I always get it with the risotto which is also on point. Sorry no photo this time as we were too quick to tuck into our meals. Friendly staff & large seating area with lots of options.
S.
Seafood chowder is the star of the menu. Must try keeps us coming back and the friendly staff and environment makes it an lovely place to venture out to if you want great food.
C.
Lively place, friendly staff. Nice food. Quick and efficient. We had steak with mushroom sauce.
T.
a very nice meal i had the steak my wife had the chicken.a very good cut of steak but medium rare is not rare.waiter agreed.if it had been a bad cut i would have sent it back.offered another round of drinks we settled for coffee and tea. tea was undrinkable
R.
Nice cozy spot by the outdoor fire. Good food and service. Not a WOW but certainly nothing wrong with it.
S.
Food was okay, bit over priced. Service
was slow to start but got better. Just lacking for the $52 tag for two courses
C.
Probably my favourite restaurant in Rotorua!
A good selection of classic hearty meals and desserts that always hit the spot. Certainly not the cheapest meal in town, but delicious food and big portions make it good value for money. Look out for the specials and deals on the boards out front.
Plenty of comfortable seating indoors and outdoors with a small logfire out front for the chilly nights.
D.
Been some restaurants in Rotorua...most were just ok. But Mac’s Steak House......Food quality was really unexpected! We had steak and pork chop - juicy & yummy! Tiramisu - absolutely fabulous! My son is a picky eater. He had a small bite and immediately fell in love! We will definitely go to Mac’s again!
S.
Service was fast and friendly, kid friendly restaurant, food was delicious we had calamari, garlic bread, pasta for the kids and steak with mash and salad, for dessert we had hot brownies and ice cream we loved the whole experience and will be back next time we visit Rotorua
T.
Hey I had my sons 30th bday on sun 16 august, due to pain meds I cannot drive in the evening. I rang macs, who were happy to deliver an amazing meal, The butchers block, 400grm steak!! & sides made our evening extra special with macs providing free delivery, in a Chef uniform & also using social distancing & contact less practices, macs also gave us free drinks & congradulatons to my son. Thankyou Macs for making our day wonderful. I would recommend the Chocolate Brownie with berry compote for desert! 😊

Great sunday dinner out with friends after tenpin bowling all weekend. Lamb rack was perfect.

The service is amazing and they are so friendly. Great service from the Team. We visited from Paihia and chose to come here every night because the value for money and service was the best! Thanks we will tell everyone about Mac's Steakhouse on Eat Streat. Great dining and experience.

The people great meal delicious . But first impression was dirty dishes all over the place . On tables and front counter just loaded with dirty used glasses jugs etc . Was a shame as everything else was extrememly presentable .
R.
The service was fabulous..the food Devine.
Seafood chowder..So creamy and tasty accompanied by garlic bread
Lamb shank..perfectly cooked with creamy mashed potatoes and steamed seasonal vegetables
Affogato..with two scoops of ice cream and a shortbread biscuit
Will definitely come back again
H. B.
If you want a great steak then this is the place to go. However the salad had no dressing, and the blue cheese sauce wasn't nice. Great service and decor though.
F.
Great customer service and good seating but average meals and cocktails for the price.
G.
Slow serving dispite only half full at dinner time. Food look good but taste very average. Probably typical for tourist hot spot.
T.
Beautiful food&service.friendly staff&overall satisfaction for our family thumbs up from us&definitely go back again! Not too badly priced either! Great dinner out for the whole family!👍👍👍☺☺❤
H.
Just as expected in terms of food and atmosphere. Well staff were good but not impressively kind to us. Considering the price, you should not expect perfect steak.
M.
I had the lamb rack and it was absolutely tender, the whole dish was delicious. I throughly enjoyed my meal and my partner did as well. Will definitely come back :)
e.
they're so sweet and the food is sooooo good

j.
Friendly staff very nice food enjoy my salmon with very nice risotto steaks cooked to perfection 👌 definitely coming back again
G.
Ushered in by a nice gentleman who showed us to our seats. Food was ok, nothing to shout about. We had the steak, potato and leek soup, and scallops. Came up to about $70.
S.
Food quality is so far so good, not worth to try tho.
R.
Great service. After a bad experience at CBK we came to macs. We recieved a freindly welcome and given a table and menu straight away even though the resteraunt was so busy. Highly reccomend this resteraunt
K.
Jus had lunch here, the staff were efficient, the meals came quick, not to mention absolutely delicious, completely stoked wth the time we spent here.... thank you all at Mac's Steakhouse 🤤🤤
F.
My rump steak was satisfactory. For the price and as it is a steakhouse, I expected better. Good service however.
L.
The food is well presented and very tasty. Portions were plentiful and the staff very friendly. Good value for money.
K.
Honestly one of the best meals we've ever had, everyone at the table had a really good meal and I'm very sad to go back to Australia where there is no Mac's.
B.
Great service and good steak
J.
Amazing service! Great food and drinks
G.
Average food, terrible service: it took the two of us 80 minutes to get a an average tbone and very good lamb chops and the restaurant was half empty. Do not go there if you're in a rush.
H.
We had steak breakfast and steak pasga for lunch. Food is well cooked and service is good, but we waited more than half an hour for our Food, which is a bit too long for lunch.
A.
Great family restaurant. We went there and ended up going again the next evening it was amazing. Food was epic. Highly recommended 😍
F.
Excellent. Some of the best steak I have had in a very long time. Service and food were brilliant. Prices were on the high side, but worth it.
J.
Good service. Delicious food. Recommend ordering entrees. Mains are huge
J.
Food was mediocre, but not overpriced so you get what you pay for. Food presentation was also mediocre. Service was a bit slow but was a nice atmosphere. Staff were relatively helpful but not overly friendly or welcoming.
L.
Really good food and reasonable prices. Try the sea food pasta or what takes your fancy, you won't be disappointed.
T.
Loved my meal there....wait staff were spectacular!
T.
Food was okay, but did take quite a while to come. For the prices the portions werent the greatest
M.
Average meal and full of cucumber and not mentioned on the menu. Sons Chicken Fetacene was full cucumber. Drinks were very expensive. $9.50 for a small glass of beer is crazy
J.
Beautiful kai... beautiful service .... not my first time there ... was awesome before ...
J.
Great service and food.
K.
The service was a bit slow and the waitress was not very attentive. The food tasted good but the steak was quite chewy and overcooked.
