You need 2 go once in life 2 Mac Arthur's....
A good sign that a place is good is if it's busy. During your average dinner,or lunch times there is a line you can see from the street. It's worth the wait!!
The food is great!!! It's served in a cafateria style,by kind servers.Because they have a big number of people to serve they don't have time to hold a conversation,besides I guarentee there are people standing behind you that aren't interested in what you want to talk about{LOL}. You can see the food is fresh,and you can taste it too.Beacuse there are so many people that come thru Mac Arthur's the food doesn't have time to get stale,or cold!!! However,I've been there a number of times.The food is always well done, perfectly
seasoned,and VERY tasty!!
If you come to Chicago and you want REALLY good Soul Food..you MUST stop by Mac Arthurs.There are other SoulFood places in Chicago,and some are very good,but none serve better food than Mac Arthurs.
They just remodled their dining area.It's very comfortable and the ambiance makes the experience enjoyable.I've discovered the best time to avoid the crowd is to go between 2pm - 4pm,and expect to stand in line on Sundays no matter what time you go.However,it's worth the wait. I promise!!!
