Rustic kitchen has the best most comforting Mac and cheese ever. Truffle oil anyone?

Parish Cafe on Boylston Street does an excellent version. Not sure what cheeses are in it, but they offer great add-ins as well.

Grafton Street in Cambridge - orecchiette pasta, four cheese sauce, peas, herbed bread crumbs, light truffle oil - amazing. Also, Marliave in Boston - house cut ziti, black truffle, cream, farmhouse cheeses - so yummy. Guess I like a little truffle in my mac-n-cheese!

I miss Zon's. Fat Cat is my next favorite, but add the BBQ pulled pork from the nachos. It's not on the menu, but they will do it if you ask.

Pizzeria Regina is number one! They use macaroni noodles, a creamy white cheese sauce and buttery crumb topping... amazing. They're not open for dinner but this is a must-lunch spot for anyone in the downtown area. (Bromfield St)

I also miss Zon's. Gotta say the Mac & Cheese at Max & Dylan's on West Street, near the Common, is phenomenal. Particularly the Buffalo Chicken variety.
I'm sure I'll get pulverized for this, but the Buffalo Chicken Mac & Cheese at Jake & Joe's in Norwood is pretty damned good too.

The Staff Meal food truck does a rotating mac n' cheese with offal that is incredible. Easily the best I've ever had in the city.

Bill - was it at Cuffs? an Irish bar at the Back Bay Hotel (formerly Jury's Hotel)? That used to be the Boston Police Headquarters.
I love Fat Cat, but I'm looking forward to trying everyone's recommendations.
