2/17/2024Maxine's Deli is a great place to stop and enjoy breakfast or lunch all day. The atmosphere is well seasoned, but that could be why their prices and their food plated quantities are still at pre-covid prices. This delicatessen had volumes of choices for breakfast, food like omelets, pancakes, and several breakfast specials. The lunch menu also has quite a selection of sandwiches and wraps with a few choices for soup. We enjoyed the mazzaball soup, a meat knish, and a two meat deli sandwich on marbled rye. Today's find was such a nice surprise. We really enjoyed our food.

Absolutely delicious! I had wanted to come here for a while now and it always seemed I came on a Tuesday when they are closed. Well not only was service friendly, but my Reuben was the best I ever had. I could taste the quality ingredients in my sandwich and my soup. The pickle was perfect in taste and crunch. I can’t wait to return to try breakfast items.

Stopped by this past weekend for some take out deli....bought what little they had of tongue and some corned beef. Neither was particularly fresh and the corned beef was awful....very chewy and not very "corned". The tongue was OK, but not great.Overall, very disappointing experience.

A great townie diner, homey and pleasant with odds and ends for decor. I loved the suit of arms and cat statue in the entrance. The server was pleasant and we were told what area we could sit in and we got our beverages right away. Something was going on with the kitchen. We waited quite some time for our food. They are hiring though - so hopefully it will improve. I got "Steve's special Benedict" which has Romanian pastrami. That was delicious! I have no idea what differentiates this pastrami from others but it was good. My husband got a standard egg and toast breakfast and we split a Belgium waffle with blueberries. He was super pleased with the waffle. They had the deli standards too. Latkes, blintzes, matzoh - we just didn't try them today. They also had pancake wraps (literally food wrapped into a pancake) which I'm pretty intrigued by. All in all, given the other reviews don't go here if you are in a hurry, starving or alone. Go expecting to wait and have a nice chat with your companions over coffee.

It’s not a bad place to eat, however not providing utensils or napkins is really inconvenient.

Went for breakfast. Pancake wrapped breakfast burrito with peanut butter - tried it becausevit sounded so bizarre, but it was awesome.

Love this place, there food is amazing!!! Staff and owner are the best!!!!
Last went to Maxie's 10 years ago and recently a good friend said ... go back. I did and for the exact same reason I stopped going happened again. If you are not a regular you might as well wait on yourself. The wait staff is slow and clearly caters to regulars. The food once again was ok. Not bad. Not great. It's a warm Sunday and it would have been nice to have some air conditioning on! I tried it and I will not return

The three of us had a marvelous lunch. Kelly, our server was fantastic! She took our order and brought our food promptly. Continually she checked to see if we needed anything. Our lunch was delicious. One of us had the Nova lux platter which was so plentiful that he has another meal. Two of us had the senior luncheon specials which were absolutely delicious. How they keep their prices so low is amazing.

Was a bit disappointed they didn't have the tongue or chopped liver on the day we visited. Was greatly impressed with the Romanian Pastrami sandwich, the simplicity of it, and the meat was perfectly sliced, a little warmed, and simply melted in your mouth. The half sour and potato salad that came with it were great too. The stuffed cabbage was tasty, the bottom part that is browned is nice and caramelized and a nice flavor addition to the dish.

Overall not the best experience. The service was extremely slow, about 45 minutes from when we ordered to food service. The restaurant was only about 25% filled so not sure what was going on with staff. Seating is pretty open, minimal issues moving around and the atmosphere is comfortable... very much a local place. We had to send a search party for water and coffee refills. The server was slamming doors when moving around and short with our party. She tried being friendly occasionally but it was short lived when it happened.The food was pretty good. The eggs Benedict were actually done very nicely, potatoes cooked to near perfection. The food is consistently good here, just don't come looking for a warm welcome.

Senior specials are very good value. Service was good.
