Went to Max's Grille in Mizner Park this afternoon for a family birthday brunch. They have amazing salads, and appetizers, and the entre I ordered was their Salmon Burger from the specials menu. I switched out the side of fries for salad and I ended up eating the sandwich without the buns. That's just me, but overall it was really good. Alyssa our waitress was AMAZING! She was so on top of serving us our drinks, getting the food out early, giving us new cutlery. I can't thank her enough. Overall they have great ambiance, great food, and great service. I would come here again. read more

Stopped by Max's for lunch. As it's been around for a long time with a location smack in the heart of Mizner Park. So,I figured it would be top notch, but it was not. It was OK, but just your ordinary everyday restaurant with ordinary everyday food. One thing I really liked is that the valet station is located right next to the restaurant. So you can leave your car with the valet and merely walk a matter of feet to their sidewalk patio dinning area. We got a good seat on the outdoor patio with a perfect view of the park. I immediately began reviewing the menu which was rather simple as there wasn't isn't much to it. There's grilled salmon, grilled swordfish, bacon meatloaf, a New York strip and others but nothing unique, unusual or what one might term gourmet. I had the Char Grilled Trout, which was supposed to come with capers and a remoulade sauce, but didn't. The sauce,instead, was merely mayonnaise; I think Hellmann's, for Lord's sake. LOL My partner had a Mahi sandwich which again was good but nothing special. read more

Before leaving town, wanted to stop and get a good lunch. Saw the reviews for Max's Grill and decided that this was a good spot. It's located in a shopping area. They don't have their own parking lot so you'll have to find one of the garages or pay to park on the street. Came in on a Monday at 11:30 when they first opened up. It was not crowded at all, so it was easy to have our choice of seating. I was a little disheartened when they did not have the draft beer that I wanted so I had to go with a secondary option of a shock top. The waitress was very nice. Apparently they have been around for 35 years from the 35th anniversary specials menu that they had on the table. I ordered a salmon burger with sweet potato fries. Food was delicious. The fries were slightly sweet and very crispy. The salmon burger was flavorful in the bread tasted fresh. Pretty good Dani experience and I would definitely return if I have the opportunity. read more

Meet our friends for late lunch in Mizner park. Decided on Max's Grille. It was a wonderful winter day in Florida and ended up dining outside on their patio. Seated quickly in a nice shaded spot. Service was great. The waiter was very friendly and offered to answer any questions if needed. Food came out quickly. I ordered the chopped chicken salad. Very fresh and a nice size. Also ordered was the flat bread which was tasty and our friends ordered a chicken sandwich. They really enjoyed their meal as well. Looking forward to trying other items on the menu. read more

It was definitely time for an updated review of Max's Grille, because this place has quietly been leveling up. Max's has been a family staple for us for over 6 years. It's always been reliable, comfortable, and easy to say yes to. Lately though, the specials have been on fire and the menu feels refreshed without losing what makes Max's feel like Max's. The crème brûlée French toast is one of those dishes you keep thinking about after you leave. Rich, indulgent, but also fresh with all the fruit. On the lighter side, the burrata wedge salad is a standout. Fresh, balanced, and a great twist on a classic (also YUGE). And if you're doing brunch, don't skip the mimosa party bag. It's a great value, perfect for sharing, and exactly the kind of thing that makes a weekend meal feel like a mini celebration. Add in the iconic patio at Mizner Park and that relaxed Boca vibe, and it just works. There's something about sitting outside at Max's that feels very Boca in the best way. You really can't go wrong with Max's of Mizner Park. Familiar, consistent, but still evolving. That's why it keeps earning its spot in the rotation. My only critique bring back the rock sugar sticks for the Cappuccinos read more

Food was good and the salad was huge! Great spot for lunch post-shopping. Service was quick, we sat outside which was hot in the afternoon but the covered area gets a nice breeze - we also didn't want to wait for inside seating (maybe more shade umbrellas?) but overall, good dining experience. read more

I've been here a few times and haven't had a bad meal ! Ambiance is nice but the service depends on the night. The pineapple refresher was nicely strong and delicious! For dinner I got the Sausage Rigatoni. I thought it was good but my mom said it was okay. The guys enjoyed their loaded chicken parm. I'd go back for the drink and pasta! read more

My wife had been to Max's Grill many many years ago and this was my first visit and I could tell you it will be our last visit. I won't take away that it is a beautiful atmosphere in Meisner Park and the server was good . But we came to the restaurant to enjoy a meal, and the food was atrocious . My wife ordered the crème brûlée French toast. It was horrible to say the least. Dense bread with sugar that was not melted on top. If it's crème brûlée it should've had a melted sugar crust. Instead, it was raw sugar that wasn't even melted, which was horrible. My wife took a few bites and left the rest. I tasted one bite, and it was lousy. I had their homemade Gyro plate. A tasteless version of a Gyro with overcooked Gyro meat covered in feta cheese and their homemade tahini sauce. The only thing that was good on my plate were the french fries and that's because they didn't make them. They just put them in oil and cooked them. When we were done, the manager came over and asked how my meal was and I was honest and said to him what I was disappointed. Even he looked at my wife's plate and said it should not be like that . As usual, we didn't make a complaint to get a free meal and I paid my check. However, the manager did provide me with a $30 VIP card and asked us to please return and try again. I'm thinking that one of the people I don't like is gonna get a $30 VIP card for Christmas . LOL read more

I ate this evening for the happy hour. The staff at the bar were friendly but I was disappointed with the all American cheese burger. The texture of the burger seemed like it was originally a frozen patty and there was no seasoning on it. I do not recommend ordering the burger. read more

Definitely an institution since it is one of the only original businesses in Mizner Park, almost 30 years. Our kids and grandson came to visit so there 13 of us. Luckily, they gave a private room with a round table. Started with an assortment of hors d'oeuvres, Hummus & Breadsticks, Calamari & Zucchini, Margherita Pizzette, and Chicken Lettuce Wraps. Al very good and fortunately they were placed on a lazy Susan. For mains, I tried the Jumbo Lump Crab Cake with Asparagus, Avocado Mousse, and Corn Salsa. It was just ok, I have had much better many times. My wife chose the pistachio crusted grouper with mashed sweet potato and broccoli. She also felt it was just fair. Lots of outside seating. read more

One of my good friends and I went to Max's Grille today for an early lunch, and it was such a solid choice! We sat outside at the bar in beautiful Mizner Park, the weather was nice and cool! We started with waters and the spinach dip, which I have to say was some of the best I've had in a long time. It wasn't overly creamy and had just the right thickness and flavor, definitely a must-have appetizer. My friend ordered the salad with chicken tenders and said it was fantastic. I had the Caprese mozzarella chicken sandwich, which was pretty darn good as well. The portions were generous, and we both ended up taking some home. The fries were decent, not the best I've ever had, but still enjoyable and paired nicely with the sandwich. Overall, we both left happy and satisfied. I'd come back again, especially for that spinach dip! read more

Happy to snag a table at lunchtime under the fans in the shade enjoying the breeze outside. I enjoyed people & beautiful doodle watching as Mizner Park passed us by. Ashley took good care of us. I ordered a Thai tuna salad & my husband a southwest chicken Cobb. Our salads were huge, fresh, tasty & perfectly dressed. However, when we got our Bill, I realize that there was a lunch special that would've been significantly nicer for less money, I wish I knew in advance. read more

Came for the Mizner park atmosphere and stayed for the food! The spinach dip was creamy, cheesy perfection and set the tone for a great meal. I got the salad with chicken which was super fresh, generous portion, and full of flavor. My friend ordered the caprese chicken sandwich and couldn't stop raving about it. The patio seating made the whole experience even better. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a solid spot in the heart of Mizner! read more

Went for lunch with a group of friends. The waiter was great and helpful, the drinks were excellent, the food was delicious. I had the trout and was not disappointed. Others in our party had the fish tacos, shrimp, and one of our friends had asked the waiter to substitute the mahimahi for swordfish, which they did, and he was very pleased. We sat outside and didn't feel rushed even though we were there for a long time read more

Stopped here on a whim. It was a Saturday night in the middle of season and I really never thought we could get a table without a reservation. Definitely not outside, but there were tables inside and at the bar. My last experience here was not great but for years this was THE place in Boca, and now under new ownership I think it's back. Our food, dinner, service was good. Grilled Bronzino- perfectly marinated and served with a chilled orzo, pasta, salad, beets, tomatoes, and a lemon herb vinaigrette. This was special! Radiatore Pasta- OK this is where they confuse me ...Radiatore pasta is a short squiggly pasta and that's actually what I was expecting. But the description says fusili pasta, grilled chicken, balsamic broth, sun-dried tomatoes, broccoli, and goat cheese. No offense, but there is a difference between radiatore and fusilli. It was good, but clarify your menu because I would've preferred the radiatori. Owned by Kaluz , now everything will be back to the way it should be. We had a great evening and we will definitely be back. read more

For a massive restaurant, Max's Grille has a nice, comfortable feel. The patio is well laid out too. The menu is fairly broad and the portions are generous. The Chicken Milanese was excellent - as was the Tuna Tartare, nicely mixed with avocado and scallions. Save room for the Butter Cake dessert. Our server, Sean was terrific - friendly and engaging. He made great suggestions and was attentive (but not hovering). Overall a great meal. read more

This restaurant is situated in the center of Mizner Park and oddly one of the few I have not tried yet. The dramatic exterior boasted a full bar with plenty of covered patio seating with an unobstructed view of the park. The interior bar was impressive with the hanging crystal wine glasses and the bright led white lighting reflecting off the mirror backdrop. The kitchen permitted a semi-open view to the hungry patrons which provided an inviting warmth. Our charasmatic server, Cesar, was an absolute delight and provided a hint of comedy and attentive professionalism which contributed greatly to our dining experience. My Prime Steak Grille Burger with Sweet Potato Fries was cleanly plated and halted my hunger as it was devoured quickly. The Korean BBQ Chicken Lettuce Wraps were also a tasty treat. The manager introduced herself and was informed of our absolute wonderful dining adventure directly due to Cesar's service. The bathroom was modern but didn't quite match the high standards of the rest of the restaurant, which is a bit of a letdown. A clean, well-maintained bathroom is a key part of the overall experience, therefore, a painfully slight drop to a 4.7 star rating is imperative - maybe establish a 30 minute clean checklist for the staff to ensure a better result. read more

Breakfast for lunch at Max's Grille in Mizner Park. Sat by the window next to the bar to eat while watching the art show. I ordered the cheese omelette with crispy hash browns and a big side of well done bacon for an extra $5.50 which was high. The server was pleasant and quick taking the order and great with refilling my drink and supplying me with extra napkins. read more

So disappointed, they changed the ingredients for the Mongolian salmon salad. It used to be my favorite now it's completely different. Also disappointing that they changed the salad but kept the same name so I didn't realize it wasn't the same anymore. read more

We walked in without a reservation and were promptly offered an outdoor table to our preference. Marcos warmly greeted us and had such an amiable and genuine demeanor. Our dishes were perfection. We dined the night before at the Seafood Bar at the Breakers and to our surprise, we were more impressed at Max's Grille's. The chef today delivered entrees that were on point! I ordered the shrimp scampi. The shrimp was crispy and fresh having the perfect balance of seasoning while the pasta was al dente and tastily drenched with light cream sauce. The dishes were reminiscent of the food we had in local hotspots of Italy and Greece. The grilled trout was also flaky, tender and flavorful. Tomato bisque was one of the best we've had - not salty which is a rarity these day and hearty with chunks of fresh tomatoes. Key lime pie, cheesecake and cappuccinos were generous in size and tasted great. Marcos and his manager checked on us throughout our lunch and both delivered quintessential service. We were dumbfounded by the combination of excellence, professionalism and kindness. We were just visiting Boca Raton for a day but now we really want to come back again especially with the intention to visit Max's Grille again. read more

I haven't been here for a long time and I read in the Boca magazine that they have changed ownership and I'm happy to report. It was from kaluz restaurant group, which was always one of my favorites. !!!We went there tonight. The waiter was very good.alastair F knowledgeable, helpful we had the chicken milanese. , which was good, but that was an old dish that they've had at the other owners, and always liked and still do I had the veggie burger, which was delicious with a baked potato just like they do at Kaluz which made me very happy. We had the crabcakes which were good and a salad with chicken. It was a very nice evening I will be going back again. I'm sure once it catches on with the new ownership although this restaurant has been in existence for a very long time with older new menu options, any new options good location, constantly good food. read more

One of the best dining experience I had in a long time. There's a wonderful outdoor patio dining area and a very pleasant well organized inside dining space with cool a/c airflow throughout. With record high temperatures, we decided to dine inside. The hostess was friendly, very helpful, and she led us to a great table. The service was amazing. Everyone was friendly, attentive to our needs and very resourceful. We had the meatloaf and the blackened mahi-mahi sandwich. The meatloaf was perfectly done, soft and not overcooked with bacon wrapped around the edges, and was served with mashed potato's and green beans side. It was the top most delicious meatloafs I've had. The mahi-mahi was equally delicious, blackened just right so you can enjoy the light spiciness. The cocktails were also made to perfection. We had a paloma with tajin rim and a pistachio martini. Everything was deliciously perfect. I'll definitely be back soon! read more

This was our 3rd Thanksgiving with Max's Grill. I don't cook anymore to enjoy a restful holiday with the family.

We've been there other times as well & always enjoy the food, service, ambiance & staff. This place now feels like home read more

I was in Boca for some much-needed warm weather and sun. My buddy and I came to Max's Grille for dinner and met up with his cousins, aunt, and uncle. I absolutely loved the outdoor patio--such a great vibe with the ceiling fans keeping things cool. I went with a burger and fries, and both were excellent. The burger was juicy and packed with flavor, and the fries were hot, crispy, and just right. I also had a Ketel One on the rocks with lime, which was made perfectly. The atmosphere here is top-notch, and our server was on point, always keeping our water refilled without us even asking. Overall, an awesome dining experience! read more

Delicious! Our server was Jill. She was fun, friendly, and knowledgeable. She came to our table immediately and got us a bourbon and Moscow mule. We ordered the truffle fries, Mac n cheese, Southwest Cobb, spicy tuna roll, and tuna roll. My favorite was the Mac n cheese and the blackened chicken on my salad.

After quite some time, my friend and I headed over for lunch today. We were seated and noticed that the menu had changed, the prices had gone up *a lot*, and there were no longer lunch specials. We asked our waiter and he told us that the restaurant had been sold and was now under new ownership so it had changed. We maybe should have trusted our instincts and just left. But why not give it a chance? The food came out and ... my veggie burger was not very good. It had an unusual flavor (I assume from one of the spices) and was impossible to eat as a sandwich; I wound up eating it with a knife and fork. My friend ordered the mahi sandwich, and she took one bite and said it tasted "off" - a little too fishy. She told the waiter and he tried to say that's how mahi tastes. Even so, he was nice enough about it. He took it back and asked what else she might want. She got the chicken sandwich which she said was just okay. And it took what seemed like a fair amount of time to come out. The oddity was in how it was generally handled. The waiter simply took it back. No "I'll let the kitchen know." No manager came by to ask questions. And we both commented later that while we didn't expect any sort of compensation, it was weird that from a customer service POV they never even said sorry or asked anything about it. It would have been nice if they did literally anything at all. After we left, my friend reviewed the bill and noticed that while the terminal offered up tip amounts, it did something strange (perhaps applying the tip to the whole amount, rather than the base before tax) and she wound up tipping more than she had intended to. It was an experience that was memorable, but not in a good way. We both agreed that we will never go back. Nothing about it was worth returning for. read more

It's a good bistro. Not fine dining per se, but a very good locale from which to sit and see the world go by! We sat at an outdoor hi top and enjoyed the crowds as well as the vibe here! Our server was a bit distracted and disinterested . I'm sure he may have better days, but we both agreed that he seemed very off. Anyhow, great location, and I'd give them another try, but hopefully we'd get a better server. read more

I visited the area around Max's Grille in Boca Raton recently and was genuinely disturbed by what appeared to be happening right next to the restaurant's service area. Large buckets of ice were sitting uncovered and exposed to the elements, with insects and debris around them. A staff member later used that same ice for table service. I chose not to dine after witnessing this, as it raised serious hygiene and food-safety concerns that any restaurant should take seriously. read more
