Max’s is a regular stop for me. I love it! Great food, friendly service. I like to come with my laptop and use their wifi to surf and work.
My favorite is their Memphis Blues sandwich. My wife loves the raspberry chicken salad.
The atmosphere is great with cool music (they have live music on most Wednesday nights). I came for the sushi night they had and it was awesome! What a treat not to have to drive into the cities to have something special like sushi.

My husband and I were out of town for out anniversary and heard about this new restaurant so we decided to stop in for lunch. Boy, were we disappointed. First of all we were the only customers – the place was dead. There were 2 employees present – the cook and the host/waitress, but neither of them seemed real enthusiastic to be there. We asked the waitress for recommendations, but she hesitated. Finally I told her I was interested in the nachos and quesadillas and asked whay the house favorite was. She stated the quesadillas so that’s what I ordered, and my husband ordered the cheeseburger. The appearance of the food was okay, but once we took a bite we realized we made a big mistake by going there. The food was terrible… My husbands burger was dry and he stated he would have preferred McDonalds – better taste and better price. My quesadillas was so greasy that it dripped down my hand and arm as I tried to take a bite. There was more bacon fat and red peppers on it than anything else. Where were the onions and beef? Then, I try the salsa and guacamole – yuck. The quacamole did not appear to be homemade and tasted like it was blended with something to make it go farther, and the salsa tasted grilled red peppers and nothing else. This was the worst quesidallas I’ve ever had and believe me I’ve had hundreds. We vowed to never return and regret wasting 1 hour of our time not to mention our money. 5 thumbs down – don’t bother checking it out.

I loved this restaurant but I am wondering if it is even still open??? I wonder if the location made it hard to get noticed

The Sluggo Burger was a hit with me. Great taste. My wife had the Taco Salad and was very pleased. Ambiance of the restaurant is nice. Well-decorated. Great music. COmfortable. You don’t feel rushed through your meal. Good value and great, friendly service. We’ll be back.

We dined there and where disapointed. The service was slow with bad additude. The pulled pork was dry shavings of “fridgy” tasting meat and my compainion’s brisket tough and chewy.
Love your site.
