    Outstanding, top to bottom. Impressive menu, and talented kitchen to do it justice. Intelligent and nuanced service. We never felt interrupted by our server, yet she always appeared at the right moment. Attractive decor, and comfortable space. 10/10.

    Crispy chicken, cheeseburger and fries, and mussel tartine were very good. Wish cheeseburger wasn’t as soggy. Taste was good though. Cherry Gin Sour and gin and tonic were good. Wish there was a few other items on food menu. Impressed with restaurant atmosphere and service. Very difficult to find street parking as many areas are permit, no parking, loading and passenger zone. Wish there was more parking around the restaurant.

    Excellent service and tasty food. We were celebrating my friend’s birthday and were surprised to see a birthday card at the table for him, and a complementary desert drink at the end of our meal. We had a great experience and will definitely be back. Thank you Maxine’s!

    Overall, we had a very nice evening. Cocktails were very good and we really enjoyed the dinner special which was the pork shank for 2 - impressively large but quite delicious, though a bit messy to cut!
