Macaroni Grill Rolls out New $5 Menu to Help Fight Childhood Hunger


Ramano’s Macaroni Grill, a nationwide Italian restaurant with four metro-Atlanta locations, rolled out its new menu of $5 items earlier this month. The mouth-watering menu includes bruschetta crostini, crispy artichoke potato cakes, spicy ricotta meatballs, goat cheese peppadew peppers, mac & cheese bites with truffle dip and homemade chocolate cake.

This week (through Sept. 22) is National Dine Out Week, and the restaurant is hoping that the lower-price-point items will entice patrons to dine in, where they will also have the opportunity to donate $2 to Dine Out for No Kid Hungry, a national program that brings together thousands of restaurants to ensure that no child in America grows up hungry. When patrons donate $2 to their Macaroni Grill check, they help connect kids with up to 20 meals (and also receive $5 off of their next purchase at the restaurant).

The restaurant’s goal is to raise enough funding and awareness throughout September to provide 1 million meals for No Kid Hungry. Here are three simple ways that you can help meet that goal:

  1. Donate $2 to No Kid Hungry in September and receive $5 off your next Macaroni Grill visit.
  2. Share one of the photos from the Mac Grill Give Facebook Gallery on your personal Facebook page by visiting https://www.facebook.com/RomanosMacaroniGrill/app_101106106709591. For every picture shared, the company will donate one meal.
  3. Tag a tweet or Instagram photo of your favorite Macaroni Grill experience with  #macgrillgive. For every #macgrillgive hashtag, Macaroni Grill will help No Kid Hungry connect a kid to a meal.
