Our server Maurice was TOP notch!! Made the experience lovely! Even joked around and had fun with the kiddos and we all enjoyed his company. It was a bit of a complex order, and also order of things. But nonetheless he handled everything perfectly and the whole lunch went off without a hitch! Great lunch portions. I ordered the Apple and Bacon Grilled Cheese. So good on that delicious buttered and fried bread. The apples were cut thinly and accented the sandwich fantastically. The Aoli sauce (i ordered o the side) ended up being a lovely compliment to rhe flavors of the sandwich! You rock kitchen too! All the wings and all the kids nugs/fries and my family's lunch reg. Quesadilla were all perfectly cooked and well prepared, served hot! Thank you for a nice dining experience together, and the patio seating was a great choice on this gorgeous day. About the only "negative" thing, if you could call it that, was that when more diners arrived and more tables filled up out on the patio they (likely just due to the way they do the server's individual sections and the hostess wanting to ensure every server got their appropriate diners) the patio ended up feeling crowded and a bit packed together. In all honesty, our little corner was fine. But once the smaller groups started filing in, so too wishing to enjoy the sun's rays, it had a feel of a sardine can on the end. I thought it was a bit different filing every group.all to the same end of the patio. But I don't know how they do their sections to ensure servers have their tables, I'm not sure if that was why, or if the host just ended up cramming folks all in that back end. But it really wasn't "negative," simply for lack of a better word. Were I managing the floor here, I would think about creating the sections a bit differently, or even spacing out the tables a little more, removing simply just one of the 4-tops, and spreading the remaining tables out a touch, would ensure that the patio felt open even if all the tables were full! Or speaking with the host of spacing tables out and cramming folks in the middle tables after others have been filled first. The best bet would be to take one 4-top out and then rearrange. There'd still be plenty of heads for the servers to evenly...
Read moreThank you JAY and the rest of your staff for the awesome service! A group of us from work decided to go out last minute to celebrate a colleague - we arrived at 5:30 on a Friday night needing a table for at least 12 people. Of course they had a ton of reservations because it was a Friday night. The host got Jay and right away was willing to accommodate us. He brought me around the bar trying to find the perfect spot. We were able to get seated for about 12 people but our party quickly grew to about 16 people! They were amazing at helping us get more seats so that we could all be together. The waiter was fantastic as well (sorry that I can't remember his name). He was very attentive - always asking if we needed anything. We all ordered food and surprisingly it all came out together. The food was incredible - especially the nachos 😉 We frequent John Max regularly & with great reason... The food is great - the atmosphere is great & the staff is amazing! See...
Read moreExcellent service and management. I didn't know they used garlic butter when they use a dry rub. I thought the wings were greasy... So they replaced them, explained to me about the use of garlic butter and bought us a round for the trouble. Excellent service. Top notch. Thanks!!
3 years ago. Now... garbage... service staff is still great. Food is garbage. Sauces are just ridiculous. Nashville hot is hot sauce with diced pickle on top... lmfao. It's like a rich toddler bought the place. Good thing your staff is cool. Because your food Quality is toddler lever. The sauce experiments are worthy of people on drugs. People come for $4 pints and get so drunk they don't know your food is garbage. Congratulations. You're disgracefully ripping people off with food unacceptable for a $5 strip club and fooling people with your buy 1 get one for the price of 2. You are a criminal and should never sleep at night. 1 star food with...
