Walked into the restaurant and waited almost 5 minutes before the hostess came over or anyone greeted us.  Then she asked if we were going to get the lunch special.  We tell her we're not sure because we haven't seen the menu.  Then she tells us that if we want the lunch special there's different seating so we have to decide before we sit down?! Ummmmm... what if somebody wants the lunch special and the other person doesn't??  Can we sit down and look at the menu before deciding? This has to be the stupidest policy/promotion ever!!! This was my first time back to Macaroni Grill in over a year, and I will not be returning anytime soon after this.  We decided to just leave and go to Chili's next door (which was great!)
