Serves all-vegan nutritious food and beverages, with the majority of organic ingredients at an affordable price. Confirmed closed with plans to relocate, Jan 2019 - please send updates.
While on vacation I went to Macai on 2 occasions. The 1st time I ordered the individual Mexican Pizza served with soy chorizo, tomatoes, mushrooms, vegan cheese on top of a perfectly thin crust. The 2nd time I ordered the gourmet burger served with a vegan patty, sautéed mushrooms & onions on a toasted bun. Both items were tasty, satisfying and perfect portion size (not too over-filling). I also ordered a juice (Super Holly) and smoothie (Coco Cacao). The juice and smoothie menu shows the individual ingredients and health benefits (which I liked).
My dad (usually eats fish not meat) also ordered the same items and really enjoyed the pizza and burger and said he is looking forward to the next visit to Macai.
The staff is super friendly and made every effort to meet our needs. (Other reviewers have complained about slow service). This is not a fast food joint. It takes time and effort to prepare some menu items including smoothies and juices.
Overall I enjoyed the food, affordable prices, the friendly staff, and look forward to visiting Macai again.
Great customer service, not great food/Excelente servicio al cliente, la comida no tanto - Edit
English:
I dont know about the rest of the dishes but I tried a vegan hamburger and a "parfait" that supously happened to had coconut milk ice-cream but the hamburger was definitely improbable and the "parfait" was a vegan brownie (that actually taste good) with a tiny cup of coconut milk/yogurt. It was definetly a excellent customer service but far to be a tasty vegan restaurant that I will try to get back to, if I could cook or go to somewhere else I'll go for the alternative option
Español:
No se del resto de los platillos pero en lo que respecta a la vez que fui, pedimos una hamburguesa y un "parfait" con una bola de nieve de leche de coco encima. La hamburguesa dejaba mucho que desear y el "parfait" no era mas que un brownie servido con un mini vaso/caballito con leche/yogurth de coco. Lo que si, la atención a cliente es excelente pero si tengo opción de ir a otro lugar o cocinar definitivamente tomo la alternativa
They have very few options on the menu, it is not flavorful, they take a long time to serve the food. I once ordered a macai bowl and it was terrible, they have no idea of what that is supposed to be, they use ICE! not frozen berries or acai, so in a few minutes all I had was a water bowl with almost no flavor, hardly any fruit and a few almonds, very disappointing. Burgers are ok, no bid deal, panini the same thing, nothing to write home about, the bowl was probably the best thing I tried and still nothing special. I had given this place a few tries and it keeps being on the dissapointing side.
