    Make a reservation, because this place is very small. You will not be disappointed. Servers and owners are extremely friendly. Try the cheese plate and don't forget the chocolate/peanut butter cake!

    Lobster omelette on special was amazing. Big chunks! Spicy chicken and waffles had really good flavor. Pineapple mimosa was better than a classic OJ mimosa. Cute outdoor seating in the shade.

    Maxine's is a fantastic evening out! Live entertainment, amazing food and one of a kind character make it a night to remeber. Curit (the owner) you've done Orlando proud!

    Sangria is really good! I liked that my fruit salad that accompanied my meal was tasty. "Toast" was more like a crostini and was way too hard. Service was awesome!

    Calamari (appetizer) is great! For the main course the Lasagna or the Bistecca (steak). Pair it with a glass of Pinot Noir... Local Italian kitchen... Good stuff.

    First & probably last time here. Wanted so much to love it! Extremely hot in here, & a very limited menu is making our date night a lil disappointing. More Vegetarian options, please!

    Amazing food, and super nice service! My food came out in 10 minutes after ordering so not sure why people are complaining about long waits.... Great date stop!

    Chicken & Waffles are great but it's not family friendly. No high chairs or booster seats. Make this a place when the kids are with Grandma.

    Jumbo size mimosas , away from the busier part of downtown, and great atmosphere with live music during brunch!

    Not sure where the slow service comments come from ... 3x and the service has been at a perfect pace! If your looking for quick might I suggest a local drive thru - you want fries with that?

    The most overrated place in Orlando. Food is basically straight off the Sysco truck, staff is indifferent, and I have yet to get a meal that matches what was ordered.

    Only eat here if you have absolutely nowhere to be for quite a while. SLOWEST service in Orlando.
