Max's Restaurant, Cuisine of the Philippines, Bakersfield

I ordered food delivery to my hotel. I was so excited to have my Filipino dish. As I was having my third spoon full, I was showing and I felt crunchy and I thought it was a bone from the meat because I ordered nilagang baka, So disgusting because when I spit it out Found out that it's a plastic that looks like from a broken fork. This is ridiculous! I spent almost $60 including charges And not having to enjoy your food I ordered. I wouldn't recommend ordering food from this place anymore. They might probably recycling leftovers from customers that dining in the Restaurant...unsanitary!!! nakakahiya!!!!

Im pregnant and was literally craving chicharron bulaklak i came in and ordered to go and when i tell you i was so dissatisfied. Yes they were fresh and tasted good BUT the portion size for the price is insane and i had only 6 of the smallest pieces ever! (Each piece was the size of a cutie tangerine single slice for comparison SO SMALL) and the rest was literally a bed of CRUMBS. Insane for $14 so disappointed.

Went here for snacks on a super hot summer afternoon. Halo-halo was good. But the Turon ala Mode was super delicious. Right amount of sweet from the turon and the caramel sauce, texture was perfect, banana was super soft and warm. Perfect with the ice cream. Only negative comment - wish the serving size was bigger.

The first photo was Max’s advertising (so inviting)
2nd and 3rd photos is what we got ! Plus the chicken

Management you need to change your oil so disgusting, we can’t even eat your crispy pata and chicken! Max has been known for their good and golden brown chicken , we go to their Glendale branch constantly !

Bakersfield is another story my second time eating their food ! and very disappointing dine in or take out ( see photos) got a Father’s Day promo to avoid cooking but we ended up cooking because of what we got from Max restaurant in bakersfield ! Packaging made all food saggy and soft not crunchy at all ….lumpia, chicken and pata !

Hopefully management will read this and make sone changes !

Bilao FTW! Pinoy food cravings satisfied ?

It’s nice to see Max’s trying to go to remote places to serve their cuisine; it’s just a shame that they go to Bakersfield. If they really want to enjoy the cuisine of Max’s of Manila, it is nothing but a 90 minute trek south to Glendale.

Food was okay, nothing out of the ordinary. Service is just terrible. Didt get the order right. No bowls for soup no refills on drinks. Servers have an attitude problem. Wouldnt come back even though food is good.

*** Update
Visited last time and had a horrible experience. Just visited again to give it another shot. Did much better this time, even thought they still forgot my buko juice drink. Happier than last visit. More friendly staff. Only got 4 star because of the forgotten item and the attentive to check on me. Not as frequent on checking on the customer but did eventually ask if everything was okay, but should be more frequent not when im done eating lol. Good job anyways guys food was good and service did get better.
