Three of us went there to get a bite to eat and a drink or two. The place looked like a cool place to go, since we were from out of town. When we entered the wait staff and hostess completely ignored us for an extended period of time. The place wasn't too busy and we saw people eating and yelling at each other, because the music was way too loud for any reasonable conversation. We decided to leave after the apathetic staff seemed more interested in each other than welcoming customers. I hope the management doesn't allow this to be a constant practice. Too bad we didn't get to try the food or beverages.

1st time, great on everything, two weeks later, 2nd time, I will never be back. All the best, it's a tough game to be in, consistency will make or break any buisness.

Food is lackluster, even for a bar. Staff is uninterested unless you are a regular. It is a fine spot for a late night cocktail if you are confined to the Wolf Road corridor and in need.

Awesome place! Awesome service!

Honestly... been here a couple times and I just can't get good service. The food is Gordon's food service quality. Definitely has more of a dive bar vibe than a place to grab

I received an order of wings from this place. I guess the cook was drunk or so accustom to feeding drunks that he or she did not realize that dry, tasteless wings are not for everyone. They have the strangest door policy. Everyone is to be carded 18 and up, unless you know someone that works there, or look over 50. Let me play advocate for a moment. My friend James, bad day at work. Known him 20 years but he is on edge. Security stops him to check ID, but he is your friend you say no just let James in. 2 drinks later James flips out and starts shooting up the place. Security is now working backwards to stop James from firing the 5th bullet. When the policy on the door says "everyone 18 and over must show ID". As a policy maker the reason for policies is to prevent issues from happening, not to make people uncomfortable or make your friend or acquaintances feel important when they don't have to follow the policy it is for protection of the establishment being run. Changing policies to suit a whim makes for an unstable environment. The reason for security and checks is to make the place safe to enjoy. Everyone in the establishment from the patrons, to the managing staff should be held to the policy set by the sign on the door that J T Maxie's has put in place as a policy. Things are volatile everywhere, people are under tremendous pressures, be careful about switching policies just because they have always been okay. Blessings and Peace
