" I had a pretty decent meal at Max's. The sautéed vegetables were quite fresh and well-seasoned, and I enjoyed their blended house salad. However, I think the main dishes could use a little more seasoning and flavor—a little bland for my taste. It was nice, unpretentious dining, but I was hoping for a little more zing! " (*Curated Review*)

" I really enjoy ordering from Max's for takeout. The lasagna tastes homemade, and the portion sizes are quite generous! I’ve tried almost everything on the menu, and I can honestly say that nothing has let me down yet. I recommend their garlic bread as well - it’s always a nice addition to the meal! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a lovely experience at Max's! The overall vibe is very warm, and the décor reflects the charm of Italy. We had the calamari for appetizers, which were tender and perfectly fried. The pasta dishes we ordered were outstanding, truly authentic, and full of rich flavors. I also loved that they offered gluten-free options. Max's is byob, and the liquor store next door was convenient for last-minute wine needs. We left feeling satisfied and eager to return for more. " (*Curated Review*)

" Max's is an absolute gem in the area. The ambiance of the restaurant feels homey but classy. The food reflects authentic Italian cooking. Their pizza is hands down the best I've had, especially the spicy pepper pie that packs a punch. The service staff was friendly and attentive, perfectly managing the busy dining space. However, the wait was a tad longer than I expected for a Friday night, but the food made it all worth it. I will definitely return! " (*Curated Review*)

" During our recent visit to Max's, we were very pleased with the fresh and authentic Italian food. The bruscetta we had as an appetizer was delightful, with perfectly toasted bread and a fresh topping. I ordered the chicken parmesan, which was incredibly flavorful, and the portion size was blissfully generous! Service was smooth, though we did wait a little longer for dessert. Nonetheless, the cheesecake cones were absolutely to die for! Overall, a wonderful experience and we will be returning soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" Our experience at Max's was a mixed bag. The food was decent, but one of the items we ordered was too salty for my taste, overshadowing the other flavors. The service was nice, if a bit slow. We also loved the ambiance, but I think they should work a bit on consistency in the kitchen to elevate the experience further. " (*Curated Review*)

" Max's has been my go-to restaurant for special occasions for years! Each time we come, we are warmly welcomed, and there are always new items on the menu. The carbonara is especially delightful. The ambiance is inviting, and perfect for a family dinner or a quiet night out. My only wish is that they had more outdoor seating options for the warmer months. " (*Curated Review*)
