Regularly, the staff can make or break a restaurant, and in this case, our server, Shannon, was great. She was easy to speak with, knew her menu, and gave us great recommendations. We decided to try Maxim's for a late lunch and found it busy all day. We had a hard time deciding because the menu is widely varied. We learned that there is a basement bakery where all pasta and bakery goods are made fresh in-house. The food flavors prove this to be true, and all the food is very tasty. We had the patty melt and were served a large and very well-done dish. The fries are delish! We also ordered the Turkey Avocado BLT on Foccacia, which was huge and also very tasty. There was no room for dessert, but I imagine it would be wonderful too. The pricing is appropriate for the large servings. It is a good place for small or large groups. read more

The food is OK, with quite an extensive menu. The customer service can definitely improve. It lacks attentiveness. Even though I've been taking my senior friend to her favorite restaurant Maxims on regular basis, it's not always welcoming. Staff like Pablo always make a difference, he is great at greeting us and serve a good cup of coffee. read more

Maxims Restaurant - The best Chicken Dumpling Soup - New American Near Me - Brookfield, Wisconsin

Stopped by with some family on a Sunday morning and we are so glad we did! This is the perfect diner vibe place with such friendly and helpful staff. We came at around 11 so some of our group got lunch and some breakfast. Everything was absolutely incredible! The pancakes were fluffy. The eggs were flavorful and seasoned/cooked perfectly with great quality ingredients. The portions are huge and can definitely be multiple meals or shared. We didn't come with a reservation and the place is big enough that even when they were busy we didn't need one! Love this place and we will definitely be back! read more

Took by dad to lunch at a place he likes. He warned me that the crowd here is pretty old and he was right. I thought I was in the dining room of a senior living complex. Despite the atmosphere the service and the food were very good. My dad got the 1/2 sandwich and soup special which he really liked. I opted for their gyro which was huge and quite good. It actually could have used a few more onions but that is a minor quibble. The prices were reasonable. A great place for lunch - just don't expect a hot spot for the Gen Z crowd. read more

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! read more

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. read more

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. read more

I had breakfast here yesterday and it was wonderful. Two eggs over easy with cheesy crispy hash browns and three sausage links. Serve was perfect and coffee was hot and tasty. Never had to wait and would come back in a heat beat. read more

My wife and I love coming here when we're waiting for our dog to be groomed down the road. The chicken dumpling soup is awesome and I had a patty melt today. That was as good as I've had in many years. What I liked most is the service we received from Debbie. She was amazing. Debbie anticipated our needs constantly, even though they were very busy. Extremely impressed! read more

Used to take my dad here a few years ago, and still come here with family on occasion for midday meals. Great portion sizes and very tasty options with an extensive menu. The Reuben is enormous and I love that it gives me leftovers for later. Don't be discouraged by the crowded parking lot -- they have tons of seating inside and I've never had to wait for a table even when the parking lot's packed. read more

Our party of 8 ate here on a Friday night before going to another event. Service was okay and a little slow, but the food made up for it! Generous portions and everyone enjoyed their order. I had a gyro plate with a Greek salad. Both were fresh and delicious! Would eat here again when I'm in the area. read more

I stopped by this weekend to try the breakfast. I picked out the steak omelet, and my girlfriend got the biscuits and gravy, it was soooo good. The service was really good and the place was very clean. We will definitely be back again! read more

Delicious breakfast. Environment was clean and neat. Was there this morning with group of deaf people and one waitress, MacKenzie knows sign language and she took care of 20 people with positive attitude. We appreciate her very much. read more

The food was very delicious and the service was a little slow but then again we did go on a Sunday morning and the ambiance was very welcoming and cozy and I loved reading the quotes on the walls over all very nice breakfast read more

We've gone to Maxim's for years now. The first thing we notice is how the prices have jumped. We used to be able to eat there for $40 w/o tip. Now it is over $60 w/o tip for the same food that we've always had. The other thing is that we don't recognize the staff there anymore. With that, the new waitstaff do need more training. We've sat there in the booth without even being noticed for a long time. We've had to ask for rolls a couple times before they actually brought them. This last visit, we had an omelette & the side we ordered was the honey vinaigrette salad. Well, when the food came, there were hash browns as the side (which we didn't want). On top of that, we were charged an extra $5 for the salad (which was the side that it should have come with). We didn't want to make a fuss so we paid the $63. That is quite pricey considering we only had water to drink & the other dishes were shrimp scampi & liver. This last visit makes us not want to come back. read more

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! read more

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! read more

Maxims does a really great breakfast! I don't know if it's because it's by a church or what, but Sunday mornings this place is always swamped even though the restaurant itself is huge. I've come here many times with my family and I really appreciate the full bar they have here. I usually go with an omelette(generous portions) On our most recent visit I ordered a build your own omelette with corn beef and broccoli, it comes with a side of hash browns and huge slices of sourdough. read more

This is not only a great place for breakfast lunch and dinner but also to order fresh bakery! The favorite is the chocolate Diablo cake with layers of chocolate cake with a chocolate fudge ganache and real whipped cream and chocolate shavings! Next are their cream pies TDF! They do need 48 hours lead time since they are special order btw but definitely worth the wait! read more

Food and drinks where overpriced and low quality. We went for breakfast and where not impressed at all. The food was bland, hash browns undercooked, toast was burned. They charged $4.50 for a cup of orange juice. I don't mind paying a good breakfast but this was not it. Staff was friendly and quick so there is that. read more

Though we haven't ventured out much during the Covid-19 pandemic, we have joined about 30 family members for a couple of post funeral meals at some local establishments over the last few months. The first one, some place in Wauwatosa, was eminently forgettable--a one star Yelp review from me--at best. At Maxims I ordered essentially the same meal--a pork chop dinner. On a sliding scale, Maxims' pork chop dinner was "ten stars to one star" better than the other establishment. That said, Maxims' food is not "haute cuisine." It's basic, family style restaurant food. But the meat was tender and moist with a nicely fried crunchy breading. The sauce and seasoning were decently seasoned. The sides made sense and complimented the protein. I was well satisfied with the food and service. I've eaten at Maxims several times before this dinner -- usually breakfasts. The place is big and usually very busy. The kitchen cranks out a ton of food at a good pace. And so far, everything I've had was fine, though not spectacular. Most people will be satisfied with the food and service. I'll be happy to dine here again if circumstances bring me back -- but it wouldn't be a place I choose to dine at. read more

I come here like 3 times a week if I can, because it has immediate seating, and there is a variety of foods that are not bad. All day breakfast. read more

Had the Greek skillet! Absolutely loved all the vegetables, red potatoes spinach and Gyros meat along with gyros fixins! Lots of good Feta cheese too. Our waitress was very friendly and did a great job! Definitely will be back for more, read more

Super friendly and helpful staff. The restaurant is much bigger than I first thought it would be. This made it excellent for the large group we had. They also took reservations for a large group which was also great. The food was good. I had the French toast combo. It's a good amount of food. Some seasoning on the eggs would have helped. Same thing for the eggs that came on the house skillet. The rest of the dish was great. We'll be going back. read more

After being greeted and seated with friendly efficiency, I had a delicious House Omelette with great hash browns and excellent coffee. Others in my group had the gyros and said the tzatziki sauce was fabulous! Youngest at the table had Nutella crepes with strawberries and bananas and commented that the cream cheese filling was what made it an excellent taste. Our server kept our drinks full with a genuine smile! Across the parking lot there was a carnival underway, to add to the fun. read more

Greek family restaurants are always a safe place to get an affordable filling meal when in the Milwaukee area. One of the best is Maxim's on Capitol in Brookfield. I ordered the Greek skillet with a side of corned beef hash. For about $17, I had enough food for 2 scrumptious meals. The has was crisped just right, and the greek skillet had all the right stuff (potatoes, spinach, onions, mushrooms, feta, and large cubes of gyro meat). Tzatziki sauce on the side and 2 cooked to order eggs topped the perfect meal. Other orders at my table were only ok, and the restaurant was pretty loud, plus the server, while polite was going thru the motions (thereby losing 1 star). read more

This place is a five star rate and the current rating is only a place holder as I was here for a group breakfast small business owners meeting. Although we had a reservation for 10, only 7 attendees could attend and Maxims accommodated our reservation and placed in the back of the restaurant as it was a touch quieter for the group to conduct business. Although no one ordered breakfast during the meeting, the staff was very attentive and should patience with the group as we only required coffee and water. However after the group broke I ordered to go - two eggs anyway with cheese which came with really well cooked hashbrowns and toast. The eggs where done nicely and not over hard and the cheese was expertly mixed in. I will be back in the near future to give them a personal visit and up the review to 5 stars. Worth the wait as this place does become busy. read more

Maxims has the best made-from-scratch desserts you could dream up. They have chefs that work overnight to make fresh pies, turnovers, cookies, and cakes. They can make any personalized cake you want. A few years ago, they made shark cupcakes with graduation hats per my request when I finished graduate school. Too bad I don't have a current picture of those but I was very surprised I got exactly what I requested. The menu is massive and everything is created to be unique. Service is always very good. They will cater to any dietary restriction as long as you can easily describe what your dietary limits are. I really enjoy this place. read more

We've driven past a hundred times, always marveling at the packed parking lot. We finally stopped for dinner and can now understand why Maxim's is so popular. The staff is friendly and appropriately attentive. The food is good, hot and fresh with large portions. My mother had the liver and onions and thought it was perfect. I historically have hated liver but I gave it a try. I still won't be ordering liver but I had to admit Maxim's wasn't bad. The portion was so large my mother was able to get three meals out of it. I had the gyro - delicious. My husband had the meatloaf and thought it was quite good as well. It's hard to beat a Greek restaurant for value for the money. We'll definitely be back! read more

It's been a while that I couldn't finish the amount of food that I had served to me. Literally blew my mind, breakfast. Service was great, considering how busy it was at 10am., on a Saturday morning. And the couple that I treated to a breakfast that day had the same problem. Good problem to have. read more

Food was hot, tasty and plentiful. Desserts looked amazing, but didn't have room left in my stomach to try.

I had broiled walleye special. it was so good I would definitely order it agai. the chocol ale was amazing as well.
