We loved our dinner here. Oysters were perfection. I ordered the special and feel they should put it on the main menu. Incredibly delicious. Pulled pork sandwich was Ok but fell apart. Pie was great. Service was friendly and attentive.

Just had an absolutely fantastic meal here! The oysters were so fresh and some of the best I’ve had. I got a special Cajun ruby red trout dish that was cooked to perfection with an amazing meld of flavors. My partner got the tried and true shrimp po boy and grits which was also delicious. Service was fantastic and atmosphere always great. Looking forward to going back.. kudos to the chef!!

One of the restaurants in Ithaca that has actually improved quality since the pandemic. The dining areas are still too loud, so coming during less busy times is highly recommended.

One of the best restaurants in Ithaca. Maxie’s truly brings an authentic and delicious southern seafood experience to Upstate NY. The quality of the food I had was exceptional, with a nice cozy atmosphere to go along with it. If you’re in the area, this is a must-try.I started with a dozen oysters; they were big and fresh and just delicious. I had the ahi tuna for my main course which served a perfectly-seared rare piece of delectable tuna paired perfectly with a maple butter. One of the best dishes I’ve had in a long time.

Very crowded during the Ithaca College family weekend. Reservations recommended. Great food, and wait staff were very attentive despite the rush. We enjoyed our meals at reasonable prices. Recommended to us by a former student employee, and did not disappoint.
Chicken fried chicken, yum!
