This food was fresh and very good. It's my first time here and I will return to try more menu items. The cornbread and greens were yummy and even had the same freshness the next morning.

Great food. Cooked and spiced to perfection. Probably the best takeout I have had. Definitely going to be visiting again when back in town.

We first had these oysters in Florida and loved them but Maxies blew thembout if the water! They were fantastic! Can't wait to have more!
