Maxwells is the only place I would pay that high of a price for a meal. It is worth the expense as they get so much flavor on a plate. It is where my wife and I always go to celebrate events in our life.

Wow, what a great experience while visiting town for a work trip. The bar tenders (the elses combo) was awesome. The food was incredible as both the Bison meatballs and the Ell Steak were great. My co worker has the sea bass and stated it was unbelievable. I couldn’t not have been more pleased with the food and the service. It’s pricey but well worth it.

My sea bass was excellent! Would go back and order that again. For being one of the more expensive items on the menu, I thought it was worth the price. Others in my party didn't enjoy their selections as much. The restaurant itself was almost uncomfortably cold,

Great drinks and main courses. Desserts were not as good as the mains. Service was good but there were gaps. That said, definitely recommend. We had the picatta, walleye, crème brûlée, and cheesecake.
