Not sure what they were seasoned with, but they were ridiculously good, as well as addictive. Jimmy, our server, made sure that we wanted for nothing. He was outstanding. As was the entire staff.

I've been here 3-4 times now, and every single visit has been consistently amazing. That's hard to find! Everything we've tried has been delicious, and I love that they even have mocktail options for my daughter so she can enjoy the experience too. Yes, it is on the pricier side, but in my opinion, it's absolutely worth it. The staff is wonderful, the ambiance is beautiful, and the upscale décor makes the whole experience feel special. I honestly feel like this place is a hidden gem because of its location. I would definitely recommend checking this spot out before Coach's Tavern. Come hungry because the FOOD IS INCREDIBLE.

This is a review in two parts. First, lunch…read more Maxdons claims to have the best steaks in town. Pretty bold statement. However, the place has been around for a long time and the rumor is that it is pretty darn good so I figured I would try the lunch menu. I will be returning this weekend to try the dinner menu and report in on any differences that I may find because this lunch experience was somewhat unique and definitely worth writing about. Upon entering, I was washed over with a wave of nostalgia. It reminded me of all of those semi-fancy places I got to experience with my parents in the 1970s from the lighting to the ambience to the music to the general overall feel, which is very welcoming. And if you are as old as I am, will definitely take you back. And that is a great way to get an appetite started. However, that's when things got a little strange... On a Saturday afternoon, they had exactly one young lady tending bar, working the grill, and acting as a server for not only the interior but for the outside patio area. I'm not sure whether or not this is a gimmick or just a very inefficient way to save money, but let me tell you that that young lady worked herself crazy to take care of everybody and under the circumstances did a fine job of it. Unfortunately, the grill is out in the main dining area and an open fire grill unattended can create somewhat of a safety issue. In addition, an old gentleman well into his cups decided to go over and place his face 6 inches above the food that was currently being cooked, which I thought was a little unsettling. Based on all of this, I decided to order a cheeseburger in that I did not want to risk $50-$60 on a steak that was not going to be attended to consistently. That, dear reader, will come to pass this weekend when I go in for dinner this weekend. Now that we have a basic understanding of the layout, I want to mention a few awesome things: The cocktails were very well made. Generous pours, but they didn't overdo it and the result was delicious. I, myself, enjoyed a Mai Tai. The salad bar was modestly stocked, but did not have a bunch of unnecessary, ridiculous items that people seem to think makes a salad taste better. They also had a soup of the day. But, at 95° outside was not on my list of things to eat. Again, that will be Saturday. The cheeseburger was surprisingly delicious due to the fact that I don't think it was looked at more than twice and flipped more than once, but it was pretty darn good with a great char, and medium as ordered. Upon requesting the check, it was noticed that the dinner salad listed on the menu at $7.99 was charged at $25. After three different conversations, the overworked server / cook / bartender realized the error and immediately made things right. All in all this place is definitely worth a visit if you are in the area. The research I did shows that the locals just love it. You can go on a classy date or something casual with some friends, and you will still have that sophisticated, refined throwback to an earlier time when going out to dinner was truly an event. The only concern I have is for a staff member having to deal with several people and wear several hats with no backup whatsoever. The inability to stay on top of a grill that is consistently going in the main dining area is a safety concern, but not the fault of the server herself. This is a management decision and I would definitely recommend that a second person is always on whether it is lunch or dinner. She did mention that in the dinner time cycle, there is another person who comes in to assist and that is the reason I'm going back Saturday. I want to see how the dinner turn and burn works because the burger was really good and I imagine that the steaks are gonna be just as good as everybody says they are. It is definitely worth a visit. Until then....

Unfortunately, tonight's service was the final act for Maxdons. First, a bit of background…read more We have been visiting and recommending Maxdons for many years. We have enjoyed the service provided by several of the wait staff, with notably great service from Taylor and Shannon. The drinks and food have also been wonderful. Why else would we visit almost weekly with a per visit average spend of more than $120.00? Sadly, there have also been visits with disappointing service. The most recent being 9/2/26 wherein we sat mostly unattended for 26 minutes. We were served a glass of water and one apple Martini after a long wait. My wife took a sip or two of the Martini and found it lacking. We waited and felt we were not going to be served. So we left. We abandoned the drink on the table. And then there was tonight. We sat at the rearmost table since the booths were all occupied (with the exception of the two large booths). We waited a bit longer than what would be normal. The server came to our table and brought us menus, leaving immediately while stating she would be back shortly. She returned to take our drink order, and when my wife ordered an iced tea, she asked if we had ordered two Martinis a couple of weeks ago but left without paying for them. Initially I was taken back by the question as we have been traveling for over two weeks and I thought she might be mistaken. But she pressed the case and then I remembered our last visit (a month prior). I let the server know that yes, I did recall that we left, abandoning one unfinished Martini, not paying because service was lacking. That didn't seem to matter but she said she'd ask the manager about it. We let her know that we'd pay for that one Martini, but she walked away to the back. When she returned, she reported that the manager said while they appreciate our business we need to pay for the drinks. I was shocked since there was zero acknowledgement of the poor service that led to our leaving the drink behind. I asked the server if this is the hill that the manager wanted to die on, to which she just nodded. So we paid the $13.00 for the one Martini and left. Man, what a bummer this whole experience was. I always tip well. I'm loyal to a place I like. I will overlook the occasional bad times we might have. Sometimes a place is just having a tough night. But wow. This was just crazy. Sorry to say guys, I just feel this was the death blow to our years of loyalty. Thanks for the many good, and even great times. But the bad experiences, capped by this, outweigh them and may just be the Universe saying it's time to move on. I know the cash we've brought you guys over the years is no big deal (a $250-400/month drop in the bucket), so you won't even notice we're gone. But we'll miss the good times.

Unfortunately, I have to update my review…read more I attempted to celebrate my 19th anniversary at the Lancaster location on 09/11/26. I was sat in Rachel M.'s section. I have had Rachel twice in the past and each time we had bad experiences. Though, I wanted to change servers, it was an hour before closing and noticed there was not a lot of employees present. Rachel has always had an unpleasant attitude while serving us, she appears passive aggressive, our orders come out wrong, we have to ask various times for items such as extra ranch. The first time she served us which was in 2025, she missed my whole entree and blamed it on being new and the restaurant being busy. I canceled the entree. I haven't been here in about 3 months and I noticed a lot of has changed such as the bread, we received a white rolls and they now charge 3% to use a credit/debit card. Every time I asked Rachel a question, she would walk away while answering the question and did not answer the question fully. She appeared as if she was bothered by us. I had a free entree and I told her I wanted to apply it my husband's steak entree. She came back with the bill and she took off my salad. I told her again, I wanted it to be taken off for the steak entree and her response was "the system does it automatically" and walked away without letting my respond. I do not believe this to be true because I am a frequent guest and I know I can use my free entree on whatever I want. Unless this also has changed. Rachel never came back to our table after waiting ten minutes thus we went to the front desk. The girl working the front desk on 09/11/2026 around 9:45pm was very pleasant and helpful. Rachel saw us talking and came up. When the girl told Rachel what I was requesting, Rachel stormed past her and stated, "you need to call Brian for that" and walked away. Brian, who I assume is the manager, arrived to front desk to help me and he made the adjustment. However, he didn't apologize for the inconvenience nor did he ask me how my night/meal was. Our anniversary was only acknowledge by the front desk girl. Rachel never said anything about it. Rachel M. has a very bad attitude. I do not like to believe this is racial but at this time it could be. As I have now had three bad experiences with Rachel M. since 2025 at the Lancaster location. If things do not begin to improve at this location, Lancaster may forced to shut down as Texas Roadhouse is being built across the street. Servers like Rachel M. will make it easier for us loyal customers to transition over. The food quality went downhill. The filet mignon was rough. I ordered a chopped steak cobb salad but nothing was chopped. I got old pieces of bacon ripped in half, a whole boiled egg, and overdone steak on top. I had this same salad over a year ago and it was excellent. Not sure what is going on but it is terrible.

I'm a sucker for "Buffalo" burgers which are actually Bison. The Tombstone sliders are meaty, moist, lean with gooey, melted, apple wood smoked cheddar cheese, soft, caramelized, sweet onion, slice of roasted tomato & Dijon mustard Aïoli (ah ee oh lee). Arrugula leaves mentioned in the menu was missing in action. Very tasty and 2 for $15 in our inflationary times of 2025. Got a glass of house red wine that went well with the Bison sliders. Couldn't eat more than that since I ate the humongous Jackfruit Burrito at Modern Tearoom earlier for late lunch.
