Additional Information
So, we had cocktails at the bar after our dinner last night. The best thing about doing Max's besides the service and quality... is by far the best is... you can park in the City Place garage and they will validate your parking ticket. It was raining lastnight so we parked and never went outside. We arrived at 9 p.m. and the bar had a nice small crowd. The couple in the picturehad drinks at Max's before we met for dinner and they do have a great happy hour. They said the bar was packed. So, I orderedmy Aperol Spritz and they all had their bourbons. A great finish for the evening and it was nice to see people out an about inHartford last night at that hour. Read more
Ordered the Steak Frites and it was a mixed bag. Firstly it came served in a cast iron tureen, which, for someone as clumsy as... myself, made cutting the meat awkward due to its high sides. However the vegetables involved were brilliantly highlighted bythis plating method. I ate every morsel but having said that— & I can hardly believe I’m saying this— I’ve had bettersteak. Tenderness, appearance beautiful but somehow flavor was lacking. Found myself wishing I had ordered the salmon. The keylime dessert on the other hand was indescribably delicious. To the pastry chef who conceived of and created this dish: you are apoet. My palate is forever elevated for having experienced your sublime confection. All in all a highly nourishing meal thatkept me satiated for the remainder of the day. Staff were exquisite. Read more
I like Max's meals, I had shrimps there a couple months ago and it was delicious (close my eyes delicious) . So, naturally I'd... go there again. On my second try the shrimps weren't as fresh as the first time but it was ok. I ordered salad, this is why myreview is a 4, I eat with my eyes, so presentation is everything. The salad did not look appetizing and it did not provide thatpalatable taste I wanted. But I'll still give then a 3 try. Read more
Nothing short of Excellent. 1st off, I want to say that the images that you will see here in Google maps, does not do Max... justice. The grandeur of this restaurant is immense paired with eclectic art on the walls, styling of the architecture, floor toceiling windows and beautiful lighting fixtures.. The valet is friendly and couldn't have been more perfect in distance to fromcurb. We were greated by an outstanding hostess and seated quickly in booth as requested with reservation. It was very busy whenwe arrived. You can feel the vibe here. Our waiter Chris was jovial and receptive to our food interest. He made the rightsuggestions for me when I couldn't decide between two entrees. I had this wonderfully fruity but not too sweet cocktail withwith jalapeno that is to die for. The soft semi sweet bread comes with pink salted butter rectangle. I won't go there because itwas a meal in itself. We had the creamed spinach which was divine and closer to a souffle. Also ordered lump crab tostada andburger. The burger meat was so soft and delicious.. We actually didn't have room for dessert which is a rare occasion but wewill return again and suggests to others while in Hartford Thank you all Read more

This is a great place to gather with friends and family for a good meal and a few libations. The staff was excellent as far as... service goes and the kitchen was very accommodating because we had to alter a number of plates do to food allergies. Also, ifyou are attending an event at the XL Center then this is spot on with its location right across the street. Give this place atry and tell them the family from New Jersey sent you. $$$ Read more
