Ordered at the takeout location last night. Brought home vegan Brussel sprouts , vegan buffalo mac and white checked mac add broccoli. Food was delicious, second best thing was Alfred personality I used to work in the restaurant business and going out to eat is hard, servers and food restaurant people have zero kindness or personality. alfred was cool as hell. 10/10

I got the cobb salad and it was not the best the bacon was inedible hard as a rock. There was a mystery food item in the salad that I had to put in the trash. I realize this is a mac and cheese place but after getting Mac and cheese at the sit down Homeroom I thought I'd change it up, big mistake. I'll stick to the mac and cheese.

I ordered the Elote Mac, Kogi Short Rib Mac, & Kids Grilled Cheese. Portion sizes were great, but the food itself just was not very tasty at all & the grilled cheese was overcooked/stale? Pretty upsetting & I definitely wont be ordering again nor will I be recommending it to anyone. Could've been a fluke though so who knows!

Prices have gone up a bit, however the quality is still great. Staff is friendly, service is quick even when busy. My recommendation would be the white cheddar mac with bacon added, their regular bacon mac option on the menu doesn't use the same white cheddar sauce and isn't as good as getting the bacon as an add-on.Parking: There's only 2 spaces, out back, and 2 spaces on the street in front. The neighborhood is cordoned off to avoid people parking there. May need to park a few blocks up the street.

i'm typically not a big fan of mac & cheese but the pesto mac is phenomenal ! my friends tried the bulgogi mac & the crab mac; all delicious !! & the cashier gave us stickers with our order :)
To go operation of home room down the street. Great mac and cheese, and a good portion of food. I miss their ghost kitchen operation in the city, but I'm in the East bay often enough to satiate my urge.

Love me some Mac and cheese! No better way than to order to go. We typically order through the website and schedule for when we like to pick up. Also on time which is awesome. Our go-to Mac is the Gilroy Mac and nothing beats that! Highly recommend putting your order in online while you drive there so you don't have to wait to pick up.

Well known mac and cheese spot in Oakland and Berkeley area. This location is specifically for their to-go orders and is down the street from the main restaurant. I typically only get Homeroom to go so this review will solely be about the food. This spot is great and really hits that itch for jazzed up mac and cheese! I would highly recommend the chicken pot pie mac (with added jalapeños!) if they have it. (It's either limited time or seasonal, I'm not quite sure - hopefully they add it in permanently!) Their peanut butter pie is also great - though I can never really finish a slice due to how heavy it is. Another favorite would be the buffalo mac! An underrated feature of this place is that you can order a half baked mac and cheese if you aren't immediately eating it - a nice touch since it has to be eaten hot!

Atmosphere is really not applicable, but 5 stars anyway! My partner and I love to order to-go from here, everything is very quick and packaged quite nicely. Every single time we have ordered, the food was very fresh and hot. Even with the car ride home, the food was ready to eat when we got home without reheating! They put care into the to-go orders just like at the restaurant (dine-in location). I consider myself a pretty big mac and cheese fan, and this place always hits the spot!
