Great customer service - we were seated pretty quickly. It was kinda cold in the area we sat but we powered through it. Food was just as you would expect - delish! Especially loved the nachos & their family style combo! Loved how we were able to mix and match different things together. Brisket was my fave too. Cheers!

I visited my brother for the labor day weekend and went to lunch at Macs speed shop for lunch. We were greeted and sitted us immediately. I had the IPA beer(Little Slurp) , a light beer suggested by the waitress , for my first and second libation. My meal started with the Down south egg rolls which were to die for. The dipping sause added a zest to the mouthwatering of crispy and succulent taste. For my entree I had lemon peppers wings(flats) with a side of blue cheese. Every bite a.napkin was needed since the flavors were oh so good. Mac shop had a cantina spanish vibe and the wait staff was attentive. The egg rolls were hot and delicious. Beer and barbecue are a beautiful combination. North Carolina is just 2 states from Florida and is a 6 hour drive to BBQ Heaven when visiting family in Indian Hills on the outskirts of Charlotte!

Service and food were great. We had the pulled pork platter. Choice of sauces on the table...I liked the "western " North Carolina style. The yellow traditional Carolina style is a little too vinegary for me. The best part was the banana pudding dessert layered with nilla wafers...the ultimate in comfort food. Big enough to share.

3*= A OK1st time here with a group of friends. Seating was fine and service was well. Drinks were not the best. Not balanced and sour mix/lime juice forward. Food was tasty and complaints were minimal. (i.e. too much salad dressing when dressing salad, and could have been hotter in temperature)

After a day at Carowinds, my boyfriends and I decided to go eat somewhere. I stumbled upon Mac's speed shop on Yelp with great reviews so we went. We ordered a platter and nothing was special to me. It was just an average bbq place. I felt the food lacked a lot of flavor. Also, I tried squeezing one of the sauce bottles and it EXPLODED on me, the table, and the floor. You can imagine that it was messy. When the waitress walked to the table she informed us that the bottles have been exploding on people recently. I would think that once it has happened more than a few times you should switch the bottles... but it's not my restaurant.

Overall a great spot to eat. Food is tasty and the atmosphere is very friendly and sporty. Only catch is the food is a bit inconsistent. The hushpuppies are to die for !! But all the other sides were just mediocre. It's a hit or miss. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area.

Food's okay but the service is terrible. My wife and I had a chance to have lunch together and she suggested we try Mac's. No one waiting and still took 5 minutes to be seated. Wait staff was slow and non-attentive so that was awesome. Food was meh and pricey. So thanks but no thanks.

So over the ambience was great! Pork rinds and hush puppies were delish. The ribs were overly spicy and they ran out of turkey. Chicken was ok and the garlic mash was lacking a bit of garlic. Service was good!

We shared a couple of appetizers we had the burnt ends, which were good. Also shared a side of french fries. They have an egg wash on them not my favorite style of fries. Both were good, but the Best thing we had was the hush puppies they have a hint of sweetness to them that is delicious. The only thing to improve the hush puppies would be the serve with room butter

We didn't get turned away, but we were shown the porch when we came in with our service dog in 50° temps. Basically, you have to treat us like we didn't have a dog, and seat us inside.
