   I used to go to Max's Oyster Bar often in the late 90's when I lived and worked in the area. I have since moved to Boston and then Maine but was able to go to Max's for lunch while visiting family over Christmas 2024. My husband and I were blown away by the menu, the food, the service, the ambiance, and the prices. We got the seafood tower plus some extra oysters and it was fantastic and a much better value than those we have ordered in Maine! Everything else on the menu looked creative and delicious and the prices were very reasonable. Matt, our server, was excellent; very knowledgable and very friendly. What a fantastic lunch. We will be back ASAP.

   I ordered a Caesar salad and fried oyster platter. Everything was delicious. My companion ordered one of the many specials and was very pleased.

   I was surprised by how thin the bone-in ribeye was. The broccoli rabe was not seasoned well. Service was very slow with respect to refilling water, bringing the wine menu, taking my wine order, bringing the wine. The room was very loud. The tables were heavy and when they were pushed they would stick and then quickly gave way causing a glass to fall over and spill a glass of wine.
