Review Summary

Macbar et Fromage receives criticism for its lack of flavor and poor execution of dishes like the burger mac and cheese, which suffers from bland components and insufficient portions of meat and sauce. Additional dissatisfaction stems from the quality of ingredients, specifically the raw onions, while the permanent closure of the Ontario Street East location remains a final point of note for potential diners.

One of the best mac & cheese I have ever had! We came to Macbar with no understanding of the experience we would partake in. We had amazing cocktails & max & cheese with flavors that blew our minds! The service & great artwork around the restaurant made the night very enjoyable. Highly recommend for anyone looking for good food, fantastic drinks, & a fun time.

We had just arrived in Montreal & were looking for a place to eat lunch. We came upon Macbar & once inside were warmly greeted by Justin, who is one of the owners. Justin couldn't have been more friendly, helpful, & accommodating. Not only was he very welcoming to us but he also prepared a deliciously decadent plate of classic mac n' cheese. We thoroughly enjoyed every bite of this gooey, cheesy & flavorful masterpiece. Note: This place is newly reopened & takeout only. We highly recommend it. Thank you, Justin! -Andrea & John

Incredible food, & even better service. Jimmy (the owner) stopped by our table a few times & was incredibly personable. We shared some good conversation & laughs. He suggested the xango (fried cheesecake) for dessert. The xango & all our other food selections far exceeded our expectations. 100% recommend stopping by Macbar, whether you're a local, or in MTL for a visit. Can't wait to visit again!

Si vous avez envie d'un délicieux Mac & Cheese réinventé en même temps de prendre un verre, je recommande ce restaurant sans hésiter!

La nourriture était très bonne & le service impeccable

First,the interior was nice with a open kitchen but the rest of the experience was a nightmare...not only the food took so long(40minutes for Mac & cheese) but the taste was horrible & over priced(for the quality)
The sauce was warm but the pasta was cold & it tasted like powder & water.
I went to Mac bar cause my friend bought me a take out last week & is weird cause it tasted very different(more creamy & cheesy)
I'm not very difficult person but the staff (kitchen & front house)
Seems they don't know what they doing,the waitress didn't know the menu so she couldn't answer all my question about the food(the kitchen didn't have a bell so they were yelling "pick up" couples of time & no one was getting the food...I was about to pick up myself.
They say "the first impression is very important" but Mac bar & fromage didn't do it for me.
Food was very poor quality & the services was .....very poor specially when the waitress charge 2$ gratine for something was included (smoked bacon Mac&cheese).
Overall is not for me & I won't recommend to my friends & family when you know you can make better Mac&cheese at home.
