I had a reservation for one at the cafe, and I'm an almost-senior citizen ... a demographic that is not beloved in many restaurants. To their credit, service was excellent -- almost too attentive. (I didn't feel rushed, but I was out of there in less than an hour.) But the food was competent, not remarkable. The braised lamb, polenta and mixed vegetables were very good, but not much better than I could make in my home kitchen.

Another very disappointed customer left with granddaughter when sent to neighboring McDonald's to get a milkshake. Lots of people EXPECT milkshakes at Casper's, and this doesn't set well with old timers. Plus, having lived on the east coast and getting familiar with Smith hot dogs, Caspers is very good but no longer the best. Will still shop at Caspers, but their customers want shakes! (Nation's Hamburgers is able to do shakes, and so should they).

Stopped for take-out sandwiches and got turkey and avocado-cucumber. Both were tasty with fresh ingredients, lots of vegetables and a dill pickle spear. The dijonnaise was especially good. They were ~$6, a terrific bargain for the quality of the food!

Limited menu items. Order at counter, and they bring out. Counter seating inside or tables outside. Homemade buns, burger patties, chowder, salads. Portions are small, prices up there. Skinny fries. Austrian style potato salad and clam chowder my favorites. Everything else tasty. Still relatively new...serve was not working well on a busy Sunday brunch...not everyone in my group served at same time. Staff running around looking where to take food. No sign telling you to order, then sit. Get your own coffee and tea.

I had steak, garlic mashed potatoes and broccoli and beer. There 10 of us and only 2 people liked their food. The white wine was served in a bottle that waswarm. The only good thing was the hamburger, broccoil and beer. The place is not very clean. The wait people were very friendly and the service was good. A few of the people said they would go back. I and a few others will not go back.

We were in the mood for a "real" breakfast and came here. It's a classic diner--nothing fancy--with good basic food. Our server was great. My eggs-over-medium arrived almost raw--a lot of the white was still raw--and she was great about replacing them promptly.

We recently enjoy this historic and novel venue for a small group dinner. Everyone had been before except for me. So I got to see it with fresh eyes. Wonderfully decorated for the holidays, as you walk in you feel balanced between the present and the past. With itâs long history and well kept interior Hotel Mac offers a wonderful place to visit, catch up and linger over a lovely meal. Well sized portions, good prices and nice selections of offerings help. Even vegans in our group had several options to choose from. Service is ok. Our server while competent, wasnât especially friendly and came across a bit a few degrees cooler than welcoming. (Maybe it was a bad night or she was working solo- so Iâll give her the benefit of the situational cause)The food was well flavored, hearty and suited for our purposes. With live entertainment drifting up, we were impressed we could still continue on with our table talk. Iâd say its a must try for sure!

Nice location. Staff was not super friendly or helpful really. And could not recommend much. Food was just OK. May give it another shot as some of the other dishes looked more appetizing.

My husband and I go to Assemble for the "Columbia Employee Store" passes. When you finish eating, they present the bill along with a pass for four people. However, every time we eat there, we are pleasantly surprised. The food is well-seasoned and tasty. My favorite dish is the garlic fries. They are garlicky, crispy, and fall under the "bet you can't eat just one" category. The fish and chips are fresh, the coleslaw, crunchy. The coffee is not that trendy "sour, roasted to the first crack" roast that often predominates in urban warehouse restaurants settings.The only criticism I have is that their reservation system doesn't always work, they don't always answer their phone, and the service is a little slow and spotty. However, they do have a captive audience and it is not an unpleasant place to grab a bite to eat.
