Reviews for Maxim's Restaurant & Lounge in Merrillville, IN
Let me start by saying this USED to be one of my favorite local restaurants! Because we're in trying times does NOT mean we're... supposed to accept subpar quality! I ordered a BLT deluxe. I had about 2 pcs of bacon for my whole sandwich. Who crumbles upbacon to pit it on a sandwich? I haven't tried my soup yet, hopefully they haven't messed that up! Another restaurant I will notbe patronizing! Read more
Good service and large food portions for the price. I really enjoy the lemon rice soup from here, which is available everyday. I... also like the saganaki. Parking can be a little difficult, especially if you need a spot close to the door for handicap access,as was needed for part of our party. The spots behind the restaurant have plenty of space. Our server was great and veryattentive. Read more
A friend read it was in the top 15 restaurants in the area. So we were looking for some place new, and we stopped by. Atmosphere... is simple and clean. Menu has many options. Reasonable prices Service was friendly and professional. Our brunch order wasdelicious Just enough, no to go boxes. We'll be going back again . Try this place out. Read more
Food is great. French toast was da bomb. Mom and pop type of diner. All the classic menu items.
Jasmine was an attentive and just fantastic waitress! Broiled perch was perfect and chicken and noodle soup and the rice pudding... were just like my grandmother used to make. Tasty comfort food and very fair prices. Read more
The waitress was very nice and efficient despite being busy. The lemon rice soup was phenomenal. The crab stuffed mushrooms,... were mushrooms stuffed with stuffing. They were oily, and lacked salt. The chicken shawarma wrap had a lot of lettuce and verylittle chicken (that was more char-grilled then shawarma). The lasagna was oddly dry with very little sauce and multiple layersof noodles without filling (we counted 8 layers of noodles with 1 of cheese and 1 of meat) Read more
They could really use a hostess up front, as they are quite busy at lunch time, and a lot of people don?t want to stand close to... other people right now while waiting for a table. Food is excellent, and service quite good as well. The pizza is filling, andthe crust will expand, so either aim low on your size, or plan on getting a box. I am a pizza hound from way back, and I couldnot come close to finishing a 12?. Lost the fifth star by offering me soup without mentioning the upcharge. The lemon rice soupwas worth it, but I don?t like surprises. Read more
The waitress was on POINT! She was there every 7-8mins to see if we were ok. I LOVED it! The food order was quick and we got... Pretty full! Will be back again. Read more
