" I visited Maxim's after hearing so much hype. The shrimp lo mein was just okay; it could have been more flavorful. On the other hand, the service was top-notch—the staff was attentive and polite. I would be willing to give it another try, but I hope the flavors return to their former glory! " (*Curated Review*)

" Although I had an average experience at Maxim's, I could see the potential. The restaurant has a nice atmosphere, but the food I had could use a bit more punch. I appreciate the effort of the service staff, though they seemed a bit overwhelmed. I'll think about returning, as I do enjoy Vietnamese cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)

" The flavors at Maxim's are inconsistent, which can be frustrating. My dish last week lacked seasoning, but the shrimp chow mein I had previously was exceptional. I appreciate the friendly service; they really care about the customers. Just wish the food could be more reliable. " (*Curated Review*)

" Maxim's has been my family's go-to for years! Their dumplings and pho are second to none. Every visit is a nostalgic trip since this place has been around for decades. It's nice to see a restaurant maintain its authenticity through so many changes. The owner always recognizes my family, which makes it feel like a home away from home. Highly recommend it to anyone craving Vietnamese food. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a wonderful meal at Maxim's Seafood recently! The shrimp dishes were incredible, and although it was quite busy, the service remained friendly. The portions were generous, which made it worth every penny. I particularly liked the sweet and sour soup that had a great balance of flavors. The atmosphere was lively but welcoming. " (*Curated Review*)

" I wasn't a huge fan of the food. The dishes tasted bland and lacked the spices I was hoping for. Unfortunately, my experience with the service was not great either. I felt neglected and there was a long wait for our food. I might visit again to give it one last shot, but not sure. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a place! Their seafood selections were fresh and had a delightful taste. Service was attentive, the atmosphere was lively and welcoming. I would absolutely return for another wonderful meal. " (*Curated Review*)
