Excellent place for delicious American food. I love this place, excellent food & service. I'll return with my coworkers. It has a nice interior.

Greatest place in town for a little Accordion music on a Sunday afternoon and great food.

This restaurant/café is not only great in food and service, but they do so much for the local community as well! Their commitment to giving back to the community, especially to those less fortunate, is something I deeply admire and I hope they can get more support. The staff greets you as soon as you enter and their service is friendly and exceptional. The food is tasty and theres so much to choose from. I will be coming back for more!

A worthy cause for the community. The food is always excellent and usually never a wait to be seated. More people should dine there and help support their mission.

Went today for my daughter's 16th birthday. She goes every year and we love Max's! The staff are wonderful amd always make you feel more than welcome. Live guitar music today added to the awesome environment!

I have been trying to like this place for years, but the food consistently disappoints. The concept of training people with disabilities for restaurant jobs is great, but the food is consistently mediocre. We go for the music and order food so that our stay is worth it for the staff, but I just can't do that anymore. The shrimp and grits were bland and lacking salt; at other times food has been over salted. I've had bland over-cooked fish, under cooked sauces. I recently tried the gluten free cauliflower wings appetizer and it was surprisingly good, but tried it again and it was so awful I had to send it back (which I never do). Everyone seems pleased with the drinks, though. I will eat first, then go for the music and the drinks from now on. The staff is great.

Disorganized from get go- waitresses are volunteers but should have some semblance of what to do - she or they were in a daze, she didn’t know about menu, never took our order, appetizer cold poorly prepared - this was second time here and first time was just as negative, gave up trying to order dinner and left - I had a reservation which was never recorded / just lots of missteps

This place is full of excellent food, and awesome employees. Not 100% vegetarian, but they do get it, if you have special concerns.

Service was Great. Bison burger was Delicious it taste better then any other place I've eaten it. I'm definitely going again
I made my first visit today for lunch and was immediately impressed with the comfortable atmosphere in the room. All of the employees were welcoming and actually seemed to care about their jobs—becoming a rarity in many restaurants in this price range!

I visited Max's Positive Vibe Cafe last night with a friend and had a wonderful dinner. We ordered a glass of wine to start off and were told it was half price because it was "Happy Hour." So, we were off to a good start. We shared an appetizer of cauliflower wings which was tangy and very tasty. I ordered the Louisiana Shrimp and Grits and it was absolutely delicious! Just the right amount of spice and the grits were amazing. The combination of shrimp and sausage in the dish really hit the spot. Our waitress came to the table to ask us if we wanted another glass of wine before Happy Hour ended, which I thought was very thoughtful. The service was great and the food was delicious. It was a thoroughly enjoyable evening!

The food is great, fun live music acts, and best of all it is supporting a great program.
