Roni's Mac Bar in Waco is a must-visit for comfort food aficionados. Nestled in Union Hall, this vibrant eatery specializes in customizable mac and cheese and grilled cheese sandwiches, offering a playful twist on classic favorites.

The modern self-serve ordering system with touchscreens makes customization easy, allowing diners to tailor their dishes to their liking.

So I didn’t get food here, but one of my kids did, and would not stop raving about how amazing her bowl of macaroni was. Was decently priced, and the serving was rather large, she couldn’t finish it. There is a self serve ordering station with touchscreens where you are able to build your bowl and customize it however you like, which is a nice touch of modern. I also see this place has a YouTube plaque up front, and I can see why. This place is one of the few spots here in union station that constantly has people in line. I will definitely be trying this out next time I’m here, but for now, take the word of my very picky 17y/o who two hours later is still talking about this place.

Love it here! I'm from Utah and it's the second time I've made the stop here It's a very unique thing with make your own Mac and cheese, they keep one rotating cheese and had a bonus protein today. The cheesey garlic bread was DEFINITELY worth the upgrade.

Ordering was very easy and fast from the large tablets provided. There were tons of options and ways to customize our mac and cheese. The servings were large and unique based on what we ordered, however I felt a tad underwhelmed with the flavor. The cheese could have been melted better and mixed into the entire bowl.

My husband and I went here nearly 2 weeks ago, while on our honeymoon to Texas from the UK. I loved it! I'm so glad I got to try it and wish it was something I could get it at home too.

Loved loved loved this place. The food was delicious and easily customizable. Kiddos loved it and they had options to add in veggies and proteins. Free refillable drinks and easy access to anything we needed. Plus you get a free cookie when you tag them on social media!!!

I went to this just today and it was REALLY good. It was also very pretty looking so I was almost too afraid to mess it up lol. The brisket with the honey added a nice touch.
