With 28 beers on draft and eclectic fare like spinach and artichoke rangoons (served in a classic Chinese takeout box), Thanksgiving eggrolls, and an arsenal of beefy burgers, Olde Magoun’s Saloon has comfort food on lock. But the Somerville spot gets even cozier with amped up macaroni and cheese as the temperature drops. The annual Mac Attack special—with half a dozen loaded varieties, in addition to chef Howard Haywood’s regular-menu short rib and blackened chicken macs, and fried mac and cheese triangles—returned last month, and the restaurant announced it’s sticking around every Wednesday through December.
The creamy crocks range from $10-$15, and “mac-ancini” is an $8 app. The a la carte specials are available tonight; December 16, and December 23 from 5-11 p.m.
