Reviews for Maxie's Supper Club & Oyster Bar in Ithaca, NY
Our favorite restaurant to visit in Ithaca! The oysters are always amazing. The creole style food is delicious. I had the shrimp... and grits last time I was there and it was really good. They always have a good local beer selection and the service neverdisappoints. If you're visiting in the summer months just beware that there's no air-conditioning. They do bring in extra fanson really hot days though. Read more
We came here with a group of 8 with a reservation and were not told that there wouldn't be A/C. The restaurant has a cool... section and not cool. We were told there wasn't space for 8 inside but I later saw a table of 8. Restaurant seating: Sectionwithout A/C was full of flies and hot as hell on a summer day. It made it impossible to enjoy the food. Food review Appetizerswere good. Gumbo and crab corn chowder were hits. Entrees were a bit and miss. Seared ahi tuna was a miss. While the side dishof potato cake was the star the $34 tuna was completely underwhelming. The only way to eat this dish was mixing potato with thetuna itself to mask the tuna taste. Crab cakes were ok. Fried Chicken was a good option, shrimp and grits looked small buttasty. Ordered whiskey mule. I wasn't impressed. If you have a large group confirm if you can get ac on the inside Read more
Got a reservation prior. We got 2 appetizers, 2 drinks and the raw platter to share. The portions were good and the drinks were... wonderful. The server knew the drink menu well enough to help us decide. By the end of the meal we were very happy and extremelysatisfied by the end of the night! Read more
Loved the oysters on half shell. The Finger Lake Old Fashion was perfect. Smooth bourbon with excellent bitters and flavors. ... The Po'boy sandwiches were delicious. Fun atmosphere and great patio. Highly recommended. Read more
Southern feel and charm in Ithaca. Maxie?s is my #1 eatery so far. It is fun with the open porch, tin ceilings and great... service. Soft breezes and the sounds of Ithaca accompanying a fantastic meal. I had the crab cake appetizer and the Cajunblackened catfish with rice and black beans on the side. Great presentation and full of flavor!! The rice and beans were trulyauthentic. A must on places to eat in Ithaca. Cost $40 and had lunch the next day!! Read more

Great place to get some delicious soulful food that will leave you feeling good from your head to your toes! The salmon special... is dynamite, the pulled pork is perfect every time, and the cornbread.... the best I?ve had from a restaurant. The only thingkeeping me from giving this restaurant 5 stars- is that it?s difficult to eat in. In all fairness they are great atcommunicating, as the website does recommends to make reservations, they aren?t kidding! Read more
The oysters at happy hour are great. The rest of the menu is good, not spectacular. It's more up north does New Orleans than... Southern. There's no sweet tea on the menu ???? Drinks were ok. Service was good! Read more
