    Large portions, good service (thanks Shawn - sp?). The burger and Mexican caipirinha were great, but I’m sure other stuff is too.

    We've dined at Max's Restaurants for decades. We've probably enjoyed 500+/- meals. Burlingame was a huge disappointment yesterday. It's not the same food. Be careful.

    Meatloaf was terrible. Very strong unidentifable taste. Potatoes and brocolli came out cold. Chicken Pot Pie was excellent.

    They cut back on their menu. Classics like the cheesy garlic bread is off the menu. Asked why via email to manager, said low sales. Honestly, the quality has gone down the drain.
