Whenever we have visitors coming from another state, we usually take them to Max restaurant . This time, it was a total disappointment . The pancit we ordered tasted sour and smells spoiled. We, of course, told our waiter. It seems like the food that was served that day isn't newly cooked. It was embarrassing and disappointing. I hope they improve the quality of food they serve next time.

They need to remodel the place. The floor is slippery. The Max restaurant from Seattle or anywhere in California is better. The Sisig tasted awful, it's missing a lot of ingredients. The crispy pata is not so crispy. Palabok is okay. Halo halo is good, though. Buko pandan tasted weird.
Great food and portions are big. Great service, and the food comes pretty fast. Nice restaurant a lot of tables buy a lot of pace between tables. The price is good for the portions.
The Philippino food was decent. Sometimes they are great and sometimes the food is very salty. Likewise with the service. Prices are reasonable.

Love the max Manila brand and I love eating here. But this place always has long waits and the staff seems overworked. Does not have that friendly service as other max manilas. Maybe if they had proper staffing they would be a better restaurant.

Ordered Arrozcaldo, pancit canton, bicol express, kare-kare and tapsilog tonight. As soon as my husband opened the container you can smell the foul smells already. I don’t know if this is sitting in their kitchen all day and was given to us. I wouldn’t even feed it to my dogs. Bottom review is right, pancit canton is flavorless. ??

Ordered pancit and lechon on door dash this was terrible! The lechon was not cooked all the way. The pancit had no flavor unless you count the overwhelming lemon flavor from all the lemons in the container. Only thing edible was the white steamed rice. It was expensive and disgusting save your money.
First time going to this restaurant, not long after opening. Everything we ordered was delicious and the mango pudang was a great way to end a meal. We had a very attentive waiter and we will definitely be going back to try other things on the menu.

Avoid this Max’s until they replace their wait staff and chef. My family came here while visiting the island from the mainland and were excited to have real Filipino food. Most of the food was good but we faced two issues: a waiter (whose name we unfortunately never got) who had a terrible attitude and then we found mold in our gulaman drink (red jelly drink). We showed our host who agreed it was mold and he took it to the kitchen. The aforementioned waiter above then came out and insisted it was not mold. My mom told him that she has been making gulaman all her life and she has never had a blooming dark spot on it. And the she asked him, if it wasn’t mold, what was it? But he proceeded to argue with my mom that it just couldn’t possibly be mold. At this point I had to step in and demand he back off and I told the host we were done and would take our check. They took the gulaman off our check and due to the confrontation with the waiter, also asked them to take off the mandatory tip for a group (we were 7 adults). Have been to other Max’s before and had good experiences. Avoid this one until management gets its act together in front of house and the kitchen.

We came at 8:00pm and they won't take us because according to the front person, their dishwasher staff didn't show up. This place can't operate because 1 person didn't show. What a horrible, unreliable establishment!!! Do not come here. I'll give it ZERO stars if I can.
Good Filipino food.
