    I ordered a Reuben Sandwich. The corned beef which should be pink was brown. That and a drink & tip was $30. I would never go back to this restaurant.

    It's always fun to dine at Max's in Burlingame. Food is good. Food presentation could be improved. For example no garnishes on the plate. You used to give out pickles with your patty melt sandwich. But apparently no more. We love the pickles in the past. Also wish you have paper dinner napkins. I think

    I visit Max’s every time I visit the Burlingame area. I was surprised to see how shabby it now looks. Whoever the host was, he didn’t seem too interested in seating people. He seemed bothered by the intrusion. There were three parties waiting to be seated. The servers walked right by us while we were waiting to be seated and didn’t say a word and didn’t look for anyone to seat us. When we were finally seated our server was fantastic. The food was great and plentiful well worth the price. Max’s just needs a “facelift” inside and out and someone interested in seating guests and it will be a great place to go once again.

    This is a great place to get all your yummy comfort foods and then more. Good value for the portions you get and the food comes the way you ordered it. Everyone was able to choose what they wanted to eat.
