Love! We rarely go to nice steak places, and we were very impressed with Max. The portion sizes were impressive, and the prices were on point. The service was really quick, once you order it comes out pretty quickly. The filet mignon was the special of the night and it was delectable. Go here!

Were invited to RPO at the Max, a wonderful exploration of music held in the very intimate Atrium at the Max setting. Decided to treat ourselves with a 3-course dinner at Max of Eastman Place. Called in advance and were told the dinner was in the $28-32 range. Were seated to learn that the prix fixe was, in fact, $37. Considered a la carte items from the menu, but the prix fixe actually seemed the better "deal," so decided to splurge on the nearly $40 dinner. First course: choice between two fairly pedestrian salads - caesar and a house option. Caesar was fine, but certainly wasn't exciting. (The beet salad from the regular menu was honestly a lot more inviting.) Second course: choice between tagine chicken, salmon and pasta with veggies. I'm not normally a chicken person, but the tagine preparation and accompanying Moroccan elements intrigued me, so I went that route. Chicken was very moist, so no complaints there (except maybe price, in that chicken on a menu is rarely as expensive as fish, and I'd passed up salmon, which honestly sounded boring). Third and final course: choice between apple crisp (or was it described as a crumble?) and an olive oil cake with raspberry sorbet. Even though the cake sounded more unusual, I caved to the crisp/crumble, as I'm a sucker for apples. Dessert came out. It was swimming in oil, and nowhere was evident the crisp/crumble aspect. I sent it back. The waiter (attentive as all the wait staff, who worked well as a team) apologized, and, while I expected he might offer the other dessert in its place, said the apple dish hadn't looked quite right (then why did he serve it in the first place?) and sent it back for a replacement of the same. Only problem is that the second was really no better. I'm not picky - particularly not about desserts - but I didn't get passed having just a couple bites. So all in all, I paid $37 plus tax and tip for chicken and some Romaine lettuce. I didn't think the atmosphere (decor was kinda "eh") or the food warranted what we spent on dinner. Good thing the experience didn't diminish the high we were on from an awesome concert and Q&A!

Wheelchair accesible . Tables with enough room. restrooms (separate men'sand women's) with enough room in the stalls outside the resturant but in the same building (just down the hall - nearby). Max is in the Miller Building, first floor just accross Gibbs Street from the Eastman Theater. There is valet parking on the street in front and a nearby parking lot (pay). The food is very good. This is a great place to go for dinner before the RPO and other concerts at the Eastman. There are also occassional programs in the building's atrium in front of the restaurant.
