About Max's Restaurant San Diego, Cuisine of the Philippines

Max's Restaurant San Diego, Cuisine of the Philippines, offers a delightful dining experience. The attentive staff provide excellent service. The high-quality Filipino cuisine, served banquet-style for private parties, is a highlight. The restaurant's atmosphere is great, making it a popular spot. While prices may be on the higher end, the quality justifies the cost. Must-try dishes include pancit, chicken adobo, and sisig. The friendly servers add to the enjoyable experience.

Customers praise the diverse menu, with many good options to choose from. Popular dishes include Pansit Palabok, Kare-Kare, Lumpia, and Beef Caldereta. The beef is described as very tender and homemade-tasting, while the curry sauce is creamy and flavorful. The Palabok is considered the best customers have tried. Customers are excited to return and try more items on the menu.

The whole spring chicken is also well-received, though not everyone's preference. The restaurant was short-staffed during one visit, but the servers were still pleasant and hardworking. Customers note the high prices, but believe the quality of the made-to-order dishes makes up for it, compared to dishes at turo turo (Filipino buffet-style) restaurants. The service, cleanliness, and authentic Filipino flavors keep customers coming back.
