Read great reviews and decided to give MacSantaFe a try. I ordered the Santa Fe mac & cheese with a garlic bread side. Everything was great, just the right amount of green chili and the medium size was plenty for me. To top it off Briana behind the counter was super friendly and full of great conversation - to the owner: she’s a keeper! Thanks so much for a great lunch!

Holy cow...we were just walking along, on our way to the plaza, they had just opened, we hadn't eaten, and thought "eh, why not?" We were the first customers, chairs were still up on the tables, we waited longer than I would've thought, definitely not "long" but for some reason I had envisioned them just plopping some mac n cheese in a bowl. Ohhh was I wrong. So wrong. He brought out a glorious boat of goodness. Hot and bubbling out of the oven with a gorgeous golden brown crispy top over a gooey masterpiece. Do it.

If you want to eat the best Mac and Cheese you have ever had, this is the place. The service was also outstanding. Thank you, Phil, for making my trip to Santa Fe that much better. If you ever happen to visit this beautiful town, do yourself and your stomach a favor and grab something to eat here. 5/5 stars.

Excellent mac and cheese I tried the mojo had a little bit of kick and the chorizo flavor was rich but not over powering. The grilled cheese was also good and the bacon was awesome, it added a smoky crunch. the staff was nice and attentive. we waited about 30 minutes to get our food but it came out hot and fresh.

Picked up a large order for the office. Was amazing. I got the Mojo which had chorizo cheddar and bacon. I added pineapple for that extra touch and was so satisfied. Will definitely order again. The candied bacon was a real treat to eat with our meals.

Didn't get any pics of the food because it was so good! What a deal! 1lb of mac and cheese is about $7, depending on the type and you'll probably have leftovers that reheat great in the oven. These guys really know how to make a bechamel right! Velvety and good flavor and plenty of cheesyness. Can't wait to go back

Great stuff. Not only was the service the kind you expected from a high-end dining establishment, but the food was top notch. My husband got the classic grilled cheese with tomato soup, and I got the green chile grilled cheese and the Santa Fe mac & cheese because I couldn't decide! They were both perfect for what they were. Perfect grilled cheese, perfect mac & cheese, perfect service!

We had the Santa Fe Mac and cheese with the hatch chilis and loved it so much we got another to go! We enjoyed this place so much! The owner was really friendly and the prices are so reasonable for Santa Fe. We highly recommend stopping by!

THE FOOD IS AMAZING! I got a grilled cheese with tomato soup and the soup was perfectly warm and the grilled cheese was nice and golden crispy. Theo the owner was all by himself serving cooking and taking orders and still managed to be friendly to everyone who came into the restaurant! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!

The Mac and cheese is absolutely delectable! They have so many different options and each one is just as creamy and tasty as the next. The customer service is also outstanding. They made a mistake on one of our orders so they let us keep the one with the mistake in it and gave us an order with the mistake rectified at no extra charge. I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a nice place to eat after a long day at the State House or someone who's just visiting Santa Fe. 5/5!

Great hidden gem inside a small indoor shopping center! The food was delicious and the staff was incredibly friendly and attentive. Probably the best place to get Mac and Cheese in the entire Southwest. Nowhere in Albuquerque can come close to the atmosphere and flavor this place had.

The atmosphere, the food and most importantly the staff. It was amazing and I will be returning soon! We got the sampler and it was amazing. The banana split, OUT OF THIS WORLD. don't get me started on the candied bacon. 5/5 stars!

This place is phenomenal! We got a sweet potato Mac and cheese called dream catcher and it was sooo good. I’m pretty sure I ate an entire pound of it. I want to go back and try them all. Super friendly staff and omg delicious! Go here! you def won’t be disappointed

Brilliant! What a treat! I mean who doesn’t like Mac and Cheese but try it with Roasted Green Chile or Carbonara or any of the wonderful options! The same with the grilled cheese sandwich on Texas sized toast but add Bacon ,Tuna or Ham and Pineapple just to name a few of the options! The owner Theo is very humble but he is on to something Big! I’m a huge fan!!

An incredible, edible treat! I had the mac & cheese with truffle and shiitake mushrooms and it was fantastic. I look forward to going back and trying them all. FYI order the small portion it's more than enough

Great little place for interesting sandwich and macaroni bowls I had the Hawaiian sandwich with the Tomato bisque the sandwich was large enough for 2 people to share and was delicious loved the bisque reminded me of the Tomato Bisque I had once at the Medevil Times Restaurant in Chicago. They serve a banana as well as a pineapple split but we were all to full share one. Resturant Prices in the Old Plaza downtown are pretty high and the food mostly runs gourmet dishes. This was easy on the pocket and more suited towards my taste in food but there plenty of choices for sure. RIGHT ACROSS the street is a public restroom and information booth. THE BATHROOMS WERE SPOTLESS. We noticed that alot of the market buildings don't have public restrooms there for employees only. So it's a good idea to get one of the free maps to show you where there at. ALSO we paid $20 to park in a private lot all day they didn't have the price out in the open right across the way was a public pay parking building that was $12 all day. Parking on the street is metered pay parking with 2hrs maximum. If you want to spend the day walking around to all the shops and sites all day rate is the best there's alot to see.

This is an amazing restaurant. They do macaroni and cheese, both traditional and with added attractions. We shared the pumpkin mac&cheese, the shrimp scampi mac&cheese, and the mushroom and truffle mac&cheese. All three were outstanding. These were the best mac&cheese dishes that any of us have ever tasted. We also shared a Santa Fe grilled cheese sandwich cut into four pieces. Also delicious. Our server was the owner. He was affable, and he had some good suggestions as to things to see in town. It's too bad that the elevation of Santa Fe is around 7,000 feet. Since I don't have quite as many lungs as most other people, I probably won't be able to return here in the future. But for people with two normal lungs, Santa Fe is a great place to have a vacation.

When Theo Gio's popped up on my "Places you might like" I knew I had to try it out and I was not disappointed. A small hole in the wall atmosphere, a good radio station, and AMAZING food makes Theo Gio's one of the highlights of my recent trip to Santa Fe. The Mrs. and I shared the Mojo and Carbonara dishes then split the rum soaked raisin rice pudding. Can't recommend enough for fans of mac and cheese. I will definitely be making time for a visit any time I'm passing through the area.

WOW. This has gotta be the best Mac n cheese I've ever eaten. Just sumptuous. I got the Mojo and it had a healthy kick, with abundant but not excessive meat, very well-proportioned. And with the quality and quantity at a fair price point, this is one of the best value meals you'll find in Santa Fe. Big fan

The BEST food and the BEST people!! Customer service was just as amazing as the Mac & cheese tasted! We had the four cheese Mac & cheese and the baconator with the tomato soup. Every bite was as good as the last. Would give more than 5 stars if I could.

Another HOMERUN! There's close to 20 baked Macs from the classics to lobster, carbonara, buffalo chicken, OR JUST CUSTOMIZE YOUR OWN!Then, try and make some room for a Sandwich. We got the baconator and it's Texas toast glory piles with bacon and cheese, served with some of the tastiest tomato bisque I've had in awhile. OOPS! Almost forgot about the candied bacon for the appetizer 🤤 When you pair all of this with the outstanding service, if you're a tourist like me, you're gonna wish you could live here so you can keep coming back week after week. Don't forget folks, Mac Love Not War. Thank you to the staff inside who really made the dining experience that much for enjoyable. Keep being the cool dudes you are. The world needs ya.

Definitely a place to check out even if your a local. Had the truffle mushroom mac and it was delicious 😋. The owner is a cool Kat and loves what he does. I will definitely go back when we are in the area!

Great Mac-n-cheese place! I tried the Santa Fe. They nailed it, mild heat and great flavor!

So good! Had the carbonara Mac and the tomato bisque soup with toast. Both were amazing and the ingredients were high quality, but affordable, especially for the plaza. The guy behind the counter was really friendly and personable as well.

This is a wonderful local place! Every order is customizable. You won’t be sorry you came.

Cannot recommend this place enough. Incredibly creamy, super flavorful, you will not be disappointed! We got the Mac sampler - really generous portions and great option if you are torn on which flavor to get. We got the Santa Fe, Mushroom & Truffle, and Shrimp Scampi - honestly couldn't tell you which was best but they were all delcious!

Absolutely amazing! Can I give this place six stars? The food was phenomenal, the service was great, and the atmosphere was enjoyable. I don't live in Santa Fe but if I did I would be a regular at Macalicious.

What great Mac and cheese this was! Looking around the area for dinner and seeing all kinds of great looking food, I had to stop into a place purporting to specialize in Mac & cheese! The specialization is very apparent as soon as that piping hot baking dish gets placed in front of you. The layer of panko is thorough, but even enough that they all get a beautiful level of crispness to them. Underneath is where the magic happens, though. At least in the case of my own order, the buffalo chicken Mac (pictured), the mixture of flavors and ratio of chicken to mac to cheese was exactly to my liking. Blue cheese might scare some people away, but it melts right into the bechamel sauce and leaves behind the perfect tanginess that blends right into the classic buffalo sauce flavor. Tldr: T-MAC is to Santa Fe as Homeroom is to Oakland, which is to say I will be making eating there a habit for as long as I return to those cities.

Amazing (Macalicious) at Theo Gio's! Flight of Mac & Cheese! Had and cheddar, Buffalo chicken, and four cheese! Will definitely come back to their new location at the Santa Fe Railyards. Owner was super nice and talkative

"Theo Gio's Mac & Cheese" (formerly known as Macalicious) is truly a hidden gem of the city different. Nested on North Guadalupe Street, this small eatery can be difficult to find, but it's only about a twenty-foot walking distance north from "Fire & Hops Gastropub". Walk inside and be immediately bombarded with local artwork and posters plastered on every wall. Though not particularly big, Theo Gio's nonetheless has a lot to offer in the realm of cheesy and carb-rich goodness. Prices vary depending on how large and extravagant a mac and cheese dish you choose to get. It's important to note while looking at the menu that Theo's offers their mac & cheese platters in different sizes: the small (14 oz.), and the large (22 oz.) If eating alone or wanting your own order; I recommend that you just stick with the small as it's more than enough to quell your hunger. In terms of prices: the basic (i.e. small plain mac & cheese) hovers at around ten dollars, while the more lavish offerings range between thirteen to sixteen. As for me, I chose what the owner described as his personal favorite: "the shroom and truffle" mac & cheese. After waiting for about ten minutes my food arrived in what can be best described as a hot and sizzling mess of cheese filled glory. Once a few minutes had passed for my food to cool down, I dug in. The texture was ideal, the mushrooms were not too strong, and the cheese blend of ricotta and mozzarella had just the right balance. The service wasn't bad either. The owner appeared to be the only one working during my visit and was certainly gracious whenever attending to me. Also, I couldn't help but notice when looking around the dining room or peering into the kitchen from my barstool seat; that Theo Gio's appears to be a restaurant well-managed. Everything was pristine, well-stocked, and in its proper place. A good and reassuring sign for any eating establishment to display.
