Reviews for Max's Restaurant, Cuisine of the Philippines, Bloomfield in Glendale, CA

Parking is with a $5 fee. We had to wait for more than an hour to be seated even when it was 1 pm. The place was packed. There... was even a party in the function hall. Had to wait another 10 minutes for our food attendant. Our server was very polite andattentive. We had chopsuey, crispy pata, kare kare, bangus sisig, garlic rice, Max’s fried chicken. Bangus sisig was burntbut our sever was kind enough to give us a new one when we told him it tasted different. Everything was good except for the Karekare. You can tell that it was just kare kare mix they’ve put in the sauce unlike the traditional cooking. All was wellbecause we got full. Read more

Really good food, pretty authentic Filipino cuisine. We had the crispy fried chicken which they are known for and it was pretty... awesome. Lechon kiwali which also was very good, as was the garlic fried rice. The fried chicken was really crispy and juicy atthe same time and without the batter coating that is normally associated with fried chicken. Just super crispy chicken skin andit was really good. The lechon was really crispy also and the fat was rendered just right so as to make it melt in your mouth.The garlic fried rice was really good with the other two dishes and all in all a great meal. We will definitely be back for moreand would definitely recommend it highly. Read more

We had to come back for the delicious Filipino food! The crispy pata and chicharon bulaklak never ceases to amaze! And who can... resist sweet halo halo? Crispy Lechon sisig and the sour shrimp sinigang are also excellent. Refresh yourself with buko (youngcoconut) and calamansi (Philippine lime) juice, or pour yourself some San Miguel lager…cheers!

Had a good time at Max's Restaurant. The food was amazing and the service was too.

Terrific service, wonderful food, attractive looking location. Traffic and parking are a bit tricky since it's right near the... mall, but it isnt too bad. We split all the food amongst our group. We first ordered the calamari as an appetizer; portion was abit too small for the price, but everyone enjoyed it. Then we ordered chicken adobo, chicken sisig, crispy pata, fried chicken,and pancit palabok. The fried chicken was amazing! The sisig, cripy pata, and pancit were also delicious - i didnt hear anycomplaints! One person in our group did not care for the adobo. We think our homemade is a little better. ???? Also, a couplepeople thought the portion size of the sisig a bit too small for the price. But otherwise the portion sizes were good. Todrink, among other things they have Red Horse beer - yay! But i ordered calamansi juice instead. Very refreshing. We hadhalo-halo for dessert. Their halo-halo is large, two people could split one. Very tasty; one of the better ones ive tried. Theyused to have karaoke here, but sadly not any longer. We arrived around 6:00 and didnt have to wait long for a table. This wasmy first time here, and we had a lot of fun. Hopefully i'll be able to come back before long! Read more

I’ve been coming here for years and it’s still the best Filipino restaurant I’ve been too. It’s an excellent sit down... with your whole family restaurant. We ordered the fried chicken(best in the world), kare kare(delicious with a side ofbagoong), Bangus Sisig(rather than pork I recommend this & it’s really good) & Halo Halo(the best dessert to have to cap off afull Filipino dinner experience). Parking is very limited during Saturday’s and Sundays after church. I recommend during theweekdays when it’s less crowded. Also walking distance from the Glendale Galleria. Read more

First time being in Max's at Los Angeles. There was no line when I got here at 11 am. The food was good, same quality than the... one I tried in Las Vegas. However, it took them 40 - 45 mins to serve the food and seems like they don't have enough server atthe restaurant. This is also the reason why I gave 3 stars only Read more

On a date with my baby. Omg MAX RESTAURANT is certainly a place to go if you are looking for the most authentic FILIPINO... restaurant to dine in. This place has the best food selection. Price is average don’t expect for a fast service tho, theservers are super super slow so order everything at once. My date was fun since we were simply was there to enjoy our selves. Read more
