Hello managers, please note that your service is very poor, we have been waiting for at least 25 minutes for an order. We ask you to monitor this situation.

We love Max & Benny's ♥️♥️
The mish mosh soup is so delish, best around. The challah French toast is sooo delicious, yum yum
I love the bread they give you with your mish mosh soup. I love the scrambled eggs with that delicious sausage.
Then we go to the other side and get some of the BEST desserts♥️♥️
The only thing I have to say is the cashier guy who wears the Fedora hat is so rude & crabby. Should be nicer to paying customers

It's my comfort food spot home away from home! And the best bakery too IMO.

Shame, Shame, Shame! The taste of presliced meats and jarred pickles, embarrassing.

So rude workers

Author night at Max and Benny's was a lot of fun.
An unusual and intimate space for hearing from an acclaimed writer.
The sandwiches are generous and tasty, the chicken broth could have been a bit more flavorful, but the matzos ball was well executed -- light and fluffy.

Had a fantastic dine-in experience at Max and Benny’s — easily one of the best Jewish delis I’ve been to.
The corned beef was top-tier: tender, flavorful, and piled high just the way it should be. The matzo ball soup was classic and comforting, with a rich broth and a perfectly fluffy matzo ball. Everything tasted fresh and authentic.
Service was excellent — friendly, efficient, and attentive without being overbearing. The staff really helped make the meal feel welcoming from start to finish.
If you're looking for traditional deli favorites done right, Max and Benny’s is the place. Highly recommend.

Unfortunately they don’t watch their online orders. Came to pick up an order drove 10 minutes to get here after the order was placed 15 minutes before I drove here - And they couldn’t even find the order. Looked at me like I was stupid - Then the manager was rude to me and said they don’t make it right away. So if you’re ordering or expecting to get your order when you arrive As all other pick up, restaurants do - Be prepared to wait for 20 more min and the manager be rude about their inability to watch their online orders.

Every time we order carry out, they forget an item. Even after the person on the phone there confirms our order, they still forget an item - EVERY time.

Terrible service from grumpy waitress. Sure hope everything in her life is ok. Owners, do you provide customer service training?
