Stopped in on a whim and ordered the spaghetti and meatballs 10/10. The sauce and bread were really good, everything tasted amazing.

Had lunch there yesterday. I hate to say it but the experience was ‘meh.’ And $105 for one app, a salad and two entrees with no alcohol seems pretty pricey for the product that was delivered.
Food was pretty bland for both of us. Rolls that were brought out were frozen in the middle and then took longer than they should have to be re-served. Bruschetta tasted only like raw red onion. Meatballs could have been plopped out of a frozen bag from GFS.
Really disappointed as I would just hope for better from one of the city’s premier food neighborhoods. Also when we walked in there was a slight waft of sewage odor which wasn’t the best way to start the meal …. Unlikely to return - ever

My wife and I were in Saturday night after a long trip out east to Vermont. Our server, Terry? (He's married to the owner's daughter!) was exceptional, as was the food, as was the atmosphere. We will most definitely be back! THANX!!! gk

We were warmly greeted at Maxi's Bistro. Our server was very attentive bringing our drink order promptly. The bread and oil were wonderful. I ordered the chicken piccata which had a wonderful sauce. My husband ordered the mussels which he found wonderful. We were seated at a window which was a fun place to look outside in little Italy. I would highly recommend Maxi's Bistro for a great Italian meal.

I cannot add any stars as we were never served. The hostess was rude and lacked customer service. We go every year to this restaurant on Columbus day. I asked my nephew to reserve a table for four when it should have been five. we went in and they seated us at a table of four and I did not realize I goofed so my wife took a chair from an empty table. I asked the hostess if that was ok. He said know because he needed 4 at that table. I asked can you accommodate us somewhere. He said no. I said to him maybe we should as to not create confusion. I expected him to say no give me a few to figure it out. Instead he said yes that would be fine if you left. So we left and I can say we will never go there again. Not welcoming or inviting. Maxi, Maybe you need to work harder at customer service traing before you loose your reputation.

We have come here 4 or 5 times. Have been greeted and waited on promptly and with courtesy. The food and drinks are wonderful. My wife compares all coffee to Rome and she loves it here. We will come back here every year when we are in Cleveland.

Repeatedly used this restaurant for both casual and semi-formal occasions. Good foods, good service, and reasonable pricing.
