    Had a fantastic birthday dinner at Maxwell’s. This is our go to restaurant in Covent Garden and 3 times in 4 weeks. The food is fabulous, although we always have the same as it’s soooo good (fajitas and a burger) But what makes this place stand out is the service. The staff are always happy and willing to help. They go far above and beyond. We’ll be back again soon. Thank you Max and your team.

    Fab all round. Quick lunch before theatre, full gluten free menu. Manager coeliac so fully understood cross contamination. Fab meal, service and atmosphere. We were in and out in under an hour which is just what we needed.

    Superb food and excellent service. The perfect start to the evening before going to a show. The best American diner food we’ve ever had. Super quick very friendly service, can’t wait to go back again. Great value for money too.
