Best American Restaurants in Farmington

Fantastic brunch experience! Service was a little slow but our waitress was lovely so we didn’t mind. And the food was outstanding.

Excellent friendly staff. They bend over backwards to make sure your needs are met. We had a birthday celebration at our table. We arrived to find it tastefully decorated with a birthday card. At dessert time, a generous plated cheesecake was brought out with a candle and birthday wishes etched in chocolate on the rectangular plate and two complimentary glasses of prosecco. The menu has a wide variety of food selections and sides, portions are generous and beautifully presented, and waitstaff is always there checking on your water glasses, satisfaction with the food, and if the steak is done cooked correctly to your liking, there will do it again and get it just as you wish. You cannot ask for a better overall experience dining out.

the amount of food for the price is excellent, the bowles look a little small but are super filling which makes it worth it. Everyone seems to have a good time, it is a little louder because of so many people plus the music but overall an amazing place. 10/10 recommend, especially for anniversary dates!

I used to go to Max's Oyster Bar often in the late 90's when I lived and worked in the area. I have since moved to Boston and then Maine but was able to go to Max's for lunch while visiting family over Christmas 2024. My husband and I were blown away by the menu, the food, the service, the ambiance, and the prices. We got the seafood tower plus some extra oysters and it was fantastic and a much better value than those we have ordered in Maine! Everything else on the menu looked creative and delicious and the prices were very reasonable. Matt, our server, was excellent; very knowledgable and very friendly. What a fantastic lunch. We will be back ASAP.

We love going there. It seems every time we go they have new staff though not cooks or servers but the table servers. They could be a little more assertive.
