Max's Opera Cafe offers good service and live music in a clean setting. The restaurant is wheelchair accessible and conveniently located. A small Caesar Salad was crisp and fresh, setting the scene for a full meal experience. While service can sometimes be slow, the variety of food options, including an all-day breakfast menu, helps keep customers satisfied. The old-style charm, especially during piano events, adds to the ambiance with a grand piano enhancing the atmosphere. Many guests enjoy the friendly staff and the beautiful building. The food receives positive comments, like the Caesar Salad and the large crème brûlée, which is a great deal at $11 despite being very sweet. Some customers have experienced slow service, but overall, the restaurant remains a popular spot for live music and a cozy dining environment. The Russian Cabbage soup, with brisket and a sweet-sour flavor, is a favorite that keeps guests coming back.
