The best Chicken Dumpling Soup

The best service and best food! Chicken dumpling soup was amazing!!! I haven't been here in years and will definitely be back!

Marian Q.

I freaking LOVE Maxim's, their food is great and the service has always been excellent. I have no notes except that you should order their corned beef hash. They will make sure your coffee cups are full and that you have everything you need. Local place that I will keep going back to!

Crunch Wrap

This is the beef crunch wrap. We had the ancho chili mayo on the side. This is unbelievably delicious!!! It's not spicy, not greasy, just 100% yumminess! It's huge. We each took 1/2 home. Definitely worth trying.

I ate at Maxims on a Saturday afternoon with a group of around 12. This place is perfect for that. We got there a bit before the reservation and the table was ready. Everything went smoothly from ordering, to paying. I really appreciated that as sometimes it can be a hassle to get separate checks or to eat with a group. I ordered a skillet off of the breakfast menu and found the portions to be great and it was tasty too. No one complained about their food so that's a good sign also. This place is large and is great to bring groups, or to stop in for a casual meal.

Perfection

Maxim's is so consistent with their high quality of food and service. Year after year, they deliver. Every time I come home to Wisconsin I stop here and folks don't know how luck they are to have such a place. In LA, if they bring your food, that's half the size and twice the price, without messing up your order they're expecting a 30% tip on top of a 10% state and local sales tax. Cherish what you have!

We went here on a very busy Sunday morning, but we got seated very quickly! Our waitress was great and come back very often never leaving our coffee or water empty! Our food come out super quick after ordering. All of the food tasted super fresh, and we even got some complementary coffee cake! The inside of this restaurant isn't very esthetic but the food is very good. I would come here again!

A friend of mine recently moved to Wauwatosa, and I wanted to take her out to lunch on a Thursday…read moresomeplace a little nicer than the normal lunch spot, since we were celebrating her move to her new place. I searched on Yelp and came across Parkside 23. It sounded perfect. When we pulled into the parking lot, it was very crowded. I called in to the restaurant to make sure they'd have room for us, and was told that yes, they had just had a cancellation for a table for two, so come on in. We did, and we were seated almost immediately. From the minute we walked in the restaurant, everything was perfect. Hostess Heidi was lovely, our server Sara was amazing, and the food was incredible. My friend had the meatloaf, and crème brûlée for dessert. She said both were great. She's not a drinker, but did have a couple Shirley Temples, which were perfect. I have the pretzel crusted veal with spaetzel. I asked for them to hold the asparagus, which is usually cut up in the spaetzel along with mushrooms and onions, and they did it perfectly. The veal was especially amazing, and the spaetzel was very good, too. I tried the Mr Manhattan, and had another one as my dessert. I'm always delighted when my usual craft cocktail is one of their classics on the menu. It was well-made, if a bit small for the price point. We've already decided that this will be our go-to place for lunch whenever I travel up from Chicago to visit my friend. I'm also making plans to bring my husband up there sometime, because I think he will love it, too. A great find!

I wanted to try Parkside 23 for quite some time. I finally booked a reservation for my birthday…read more This restaurant had been recommended to me by several people. And all of them raved about it. And now I understand why. The atmosphere is fantastic in the main dining room, which is where we were seated. It wasn't overly loud. The cocktail list is extensive, and they were delicious. The jambalaya was spicy and fantastic. I had the pasta with vegetables and it was fantastic as well. The cream corn appetizer was out of this world. I didn't know cream corn could be so amazing. Service was wonderful. As was the brownie they brought me for my birthday with candles. Top-notch service amazing food. We will definitely be back again. And I can't wait. Thank you to Parkside 23 for making my birthday dinner Wonderful.

Came here for lunch with a friend on a Monday afternoon. Got there about 11:30 and it was pretty…read moreslow, one table currently seated. It took about 5 minutes for someone to show up to seat us but after that I would say the service was pretty quick. Since it was slow it was pretty quiet in the restaurant which allowed for normal conversations. We both ordered burgers and overall enjoyed what we ordered. I ordered the Bacon Bleu burger which has good flavor but the bottom bun got soggy and I had to flip the burger when putting it down. I noticed my friend also did the same things so assuming his bottom bun was also soggy. The fries were pretty standard. I had ordered a side of ranch which came half way through the meal, so good thing I still had some fries available. I wouldn't shy away from coming back here, especially for lunch.

Friday Night: We reserved a high top table in the bar area…read moreas I like a bit of commotion and enjoy the busyness of a restaurant. That was a mistake. A rather large party came in and had to wait for their table and the overflow was close to our table. One woman's hood from her jacket was close to one of our plates.. The very nice a capable waitress, Meghan, tried to push them closer to the bar and did apologize for the inconvenience . The food: - Cup of Clam Chowder which had plenty of clam, tasted good, and was a bit starchy but would certainly have it again - Almond Coated Whitefish: I am not much of a fish fan and prefer firm fish when I do order it, but thought I would give it a try. It was very tasty and well prepared with an imaginative garnish - Perch Fish Fry. My wife said it was very good with a serving of 5 filets and the usual sides. - Wine was a couple of glasses of Duckhorn Sauvignon Blanc which was very good. It did not have the crispness of a New Zealand or Australian SB and was more like a very awake Chardonnay. this was our second time there in a week as we are looking for a "go-to" restaurant on Fridays. The limited menu may not allow that to happen.

From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by a warm, inviting ambiance that perfectly blends modern elegance with cozy charm. The tasteful decor and soft lighting create an ideal backdrop for a relaxed dinner, whether you're out with friends or enjoying a romantic evening. The staff was genuinely friendly, attentive without being intrusive, making the entire dining experience feel special. The menu is a delightful mix of unique and innovative dishes that truly stand out. Each item is expertly prepared, showcasing a range of flavors that are both exciting and comforting. It's rare to find a place where every bite leaves you wanting more. I can't wait to return and explore more of their offerings. Overall, this restaurant is a gem that deserves a visit for its exceptional service and memorable culinary experience.

We visited this restaurant before when the hotel first opened, so we were excited to try it again…read morevisiting family over the holiday. Overall, I would give this experience 3.5 / 5 stars . The vegan options were pretty limited compared to last time, but I was able to try the hummus. Unfortunately, I found what appeared to be bacon mixed in with the Brussel sprouts, so I wasn't able to eat that. I didn't see that listed on the menu. Otherwise, I would've chose something else. Loved the smokiness in the hummus and the other roasted veggies. To drink, I had the Eldr Rummer. It was good and I appreciated the presentation of the flame on top. It was exactly the tropical drink you would expect. Ambiance - I like that they kept with modern wood feel with the plants. Very nice mixed in with leather and wooden seating. Service - our server was wonderful! She was holding it down for the entire restaurant.

What's not to like at the Sunday brunch! I hadn't been here in decades and my family asked me to…read moremeet them there and I'm so glad I did! It was incredible! So much to choose from but you need to make sure you are hungry and then some! From a prime rib carving station, fish, chicken, mac and cheese, all the breakfast items you can imagine including made to order omelette, many pastries and sizable salad bar!

We came here for Easter Brunch and did not leave disappointed. The brunch was scheduled from 9-4,…read moreand we could only get a 3:30 seating. I was concerned, thinking we would just get the tail ends of the buffet but not to worry as they were still filling the steam tables with fresh items until way after 4. When we got there around 3:15, it was totally packed and a lot of large groups waiting to be seated. The hostess was very friendly and seated us right away. This brunch consisted of breakfast items, made to order omelets, bacon, sausage, scrambled eggs, french toast, biscuits and gravy and for the lunch/dinner items they had a large salad bar complete with shrimps and cocktail sauce, smoked salmon, spring mix ,chopped romaine lettuce, all your favorite salad toppings, potato and macaroni salad, cottage cheese, and fruit salad. At the carving station they had prime rib and glazed ham. There was also bbq ribs, fried chicken, beef burgundy, mashed potatoes, baked mac and cheese, a vegetable medley, and best of all, a champagne fountain. The dessert table had some mini pastries, muffins and macaroons. I did see some people with large chocolate chip cookies on their plates but they were all gone by the time I got there . Note about the photos, there is no photo on round 2, which consisted of the carved ham, mashed potatoes, mac and cheese, and vegetables because I had eaten most of it by the time I remembered. What did this all cost, you ask? A mere $38 pp. for adults. I just wish I could have gotten more photos, but like I said, it was extremely crowded and I did not want to annoy the other customers. I give this brunch buffet an easy 5 star review
