I love the old-school supper club vibe! The staff is so welcoming and eager to make your visit spectacular! Everything was wonderful! From the perfectly-breaded cheese curds, and my husband's juicy burger, to my tender and flavorful prime rib special! The prices are great considering the quality of the food and portions. Everything was perfect for our first time! Can't wait to go back!

As you start to make plans for Valentines, anniversary’s, or just a random date night I beg you to keep Maxie’s in mind. Let’s first talk about the food: this restaurant knows what it is about. The menu is not full of puns nor does it focus on trendy ingredients; while it can be fun to try fluffy stuff at other restaurants you can easily be met with dissatisfaction. Every single thing that was served to us at Maxie’s was perfected and I do not think that they’d put anything on the menu that didn’t meet this standard. We could have eaten the onion rings without any ranch or ketchup, they were just that good. I had the steak salad with the shallot vinaigrette and while I can not say in good faith that it was a healthy choice, it was the best salad that I’ve had in a while. Logan had the chicken wings which may be one of the greatest deals in town. The size of wings easily made it worth the cost, and the chicken was perfectly cooked, almost broasted? The dining space has an unassuming and comfortable ambience; with a dim interior, the flickering candles create a sense of warmth. We felt comfortable in our jeans and sweatshirts, but you can dress it up too. The management clearly sets high expectations for the staff. Service is fast but not overbearing, and no table sat dirty after it was left. It is a tightly run ship of a restaurant. Now I’m not going to sit here and say that this is the fanciest restaurant in town, but I will say that the food meets the mark, the service is excellent, and the environment can be romantic. If you visit you know that you’ll be getting a quality experience.

Had a great lunch at Maxie's as always. I have many food favorites at Maxie's and today I had the Rarebit Burger and Onion Rings. The onion rings are crispy and the sandwich cooked perfectly. We were seated right away, and our order taken quickly. Maxie's is one of my top two favorite restaurants.

Lunch here with church family. Our waitress Lindsey was amazing. She not only had our party of 18, she had to other parties of ten. She didn't miss a beat or dish. And had a smile and charm as she worked. Food was very good and everyone enjoyed what they ordered. This group loles to get dessert and Maxie's came through on this too. Restaurant was clean and staff was friendly. I do what to giving a shout out to the kitchen. They were on top of their game too. With having three group to cook for ...as well as small groups. Photos included.

I had heard good things about Maxie's so I thought to give it a try. The best part of the meal with the appetizer by far, I had seen alot of pictures of the food and when my food came out I was extremely disappointed and it tasted exactly like my disappointment. For the food, you would be better off going to many other places at the price they are charging.

My sons and I went to Maxie's for my birthday. We had heard many good things. I was especially excited to try their rarebit. I had been cautioned that management/ownership had changed but they had promised to keep things as they had always been. It was moderately busy when we arrived. We were seated immediately & our server was prompt and very friendly. We started with the cheese curds. We agreed these were, hands down, the best cheese curds we'd ever had. They were very lightly breaded not over greasy. Served with ranch & what we detected to be Graziano's Mariano Sauce. For our meal, I had the rarebit. Both of my sons ordered the chicken marsala. It was a pretty long wait for the food all things considered. The rarebit was very disappointing. It was a burger with plan melted cheese. Not a flavored rarebit sauce like you expect. Just a very bland melted cheese. Nothing special certainly not for $17.95. The chicken marsala was equally unimpressive. Noodles with chicken pieces and a couple mushrooms. Really lacking anything creative, special just nothing there. $22.95 a piece This may have once been a very nice place to eat. Whomever is cooking there now is not living up to the hype of it's past. What a waste of money. A complete disappointment for my birthday dinner. We chose not to stay for dessert. We will not ever go back. The server was great. She never stayed at the table too long. I got the impression she didn't want too much feedback. It wasn't too loud but it never filled up either.
