Ashley Mac is awesome! I have eaten several menu items and I enjoyed them very much. The ingredients are so fresh. The presentation is excellent. You can’t go wrong at Ashley Mac. I love to refer it to my family and friends
3.5/5. Visited here for lunch today. Had heard a lot of good things about this local chain and it seemed like a good fit for me as I recover from some kind of nasty crud -- lots of easy on the stomach, healthy options.
For anyone who may not have heard, this place reminds me of similar smaller scale chains like Chicken Salad Chick or even a little bit like Urban Cookhouse. If I had to compare it to a larger chain, I'd say it's kind of like Panera. The biggest difference I'd say is the presence of a very large cooler with grab and go/take and bake type of meals. Definitely seems like a nice service.
This location was larger than I expected it to be. Outdoor parking was a little crazy around noon on a Thursday, but I managed to find a spot inside a nearby underground parking garage and the walk over wasn't bad. They were moderately busy but there was plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. Two cashiers were waiting for me to order at the counter. There's also a shelf where carryout orders are left for pickup. Oh, and I stopped in the bathroom before I left and found it tidy.
I was in a bit of a hurry, so I quickly scanned the menu and decided on the lemon rosemary chicken. It comes with rice, a sour cream biscuit, and your choice of a side. My stomach was feeling a little on the fritz so I chose a fruit cup to keep it extra light.
Service was polite and efficient, which is all you can really ask for. I thought the price was a touch high, especially when I saw what I wound up getting: almost $16, and that's before tip (and yes, they use the tablets that automatically prompt you to tip -- I don't mind tipping for the sake of the worker but I wish we as a society would just pay workers living wages rather than relying on tips, especially when there's not really much "table service" even going on!).
The food was okay. I was bummed to see they serve Red Diamond tea; it's not a favorite of mine at all, although I suppose it's local so it makes sense. The chicken was probably the best part, in the sense that it was actually cooked perfectly. Still tender and juicy! I didn't get much rosemary, though; the lemon and feta overwhelmed it and some bites were quite salty and/or acidic. The rice was also cooked well, not too mushy nor undercooked. The fruit cup was...fine. About one strawberry cut in halves, two apple pieces, a very small handful of grapes, and the rest of it oranges, which are not my favorite. Probably on me for ordering it, as I don't tend to think fruit cups are worth it when dining out, but I was trying to cater to my tummy. If I return, I'd get something different.
The sour cream biscuit made me sad, lol. When I hear biscuit I think of a bread item at least the size of my palm. This was smaller than even a miniature muffin like you'd get in a snack pack for kids. It was about the size of the half of a strawberry in my fruit cup. It was tasty! But very small. :( Maybe "drop biscuit" would've given me slightly more realistic expectations, haha.
Overall, this restaurant chain may fit the bill if you're looking for something fairly healthy, quick, fresh, and unobjectionable, or if you're looking to find an easy dinner to take home! If I return I hope to come back feeling more robust and ready to try something new like the poppyseed chicken. :)
My family and I enjoyed delicious Ashley Mac's Easter Lunch. The poppy seed chicken, mac and cheese, brown sugar and bacon green beans, broccoli slaw, yeast rolls, followed by strawberry cake
we're all a great choice. We look forward to another holiday meal. Thank you,
Ashley Mac's!
Ashley Mac feeds us not only during any given week but it is not unusual for her to feed us at Thanksgiving, Christmas Day, and now Easter lunch for the family! How grateful we are for Ashley Mac. Each bite amazing!
Food looked good, service was good, staff was friendly but they forgot to put my salad dressing in my bag. I didn't realize it until I was back at work which is 15 mins away. So I missed my lunch that day because who can eat a dry salad! Went back after work and all they gave me was a cup of salad dressing. I missed my lunch and drove 15 mins they could have at least gave me a free dessert or remade my food! Make sure you check your bags when you go! That was my first visit at this location and idk may have been my last.
Fantastic food ! Great to eat in , pick up for dinner & also have a ton of freezer items to stock up new parents , sick friend , etc !
Great lunch! Love the pimento BLT, mandarin or game salad, and ham and Swiss sandwiches.
My favorite place. Eat here way too much. Favorite is the Turkey Bacon Club and the Poppyseed Chicken plate.
