Service was fantastic and the restaurant is adorable. We visited on Thursday when they had an all day happy hour so well drinks were only $5 - great deal! We started with the baked Asiago crab dip and man, was it filling! We barely had room for actual dinner. Fun appetizer but not the best I've ever had. The hot lobster roll was alright, bread was light and pillowy and lobster was just fine. However, the french fries were perfectly crunchy. The fish tacos had a nice (possibly tempera) breading and were tasty. The asparagus side was pretty pathetic. Side of mac & cheese was large for the price and quite good! I'll be back during happy hour or a football game to order some other things on the menu and enjoy their TVs.

One of, if not, the best Cioppinos I've ever had! I wish I lived closer to Max's, I would go often.

One of my favorite seafood places around Denver. Oysters are good. Drinks are great. The waiter we always have is always really nice too. Truffle fries and fish are so fresh and tasty. Great mix drinks and makes for a cute date day.

My date took me to Max's for my birthday celebration last week and it did not disappoint. We had a cozy corner booth. We started off with crab cakes followed by the scallops. Everything was cooked to perfection including the key lime pie for dessert!

me and my future hubby went here for our second oyster experience in Denver! The vibe was very homie like a kitchen/grill on the shore type of vibe. service was great! we had 2 dozen oysters for their oyster happy hour, cold, refreshing, mignotte and cocktail sauce was great! I do wish they didn't use wooden picks for the oysters to shuck them, I'd rather small utensils (just environmentally friendlier:) future hubby wouldn't share his lobster roll so all I can say it looked delish! we had crab cakes as an app - yum! hubby got clam chowder (he filled up on it so quickly he didn't save room for the lobster roll - LOL!) i had the shrimp app during happy hour and it was so yummy I forgot to save a piece for him haha and I even duplicated this app for Thanksgiving! great experience overall! might even have our wedding dinner here

Max's continues to be one of my favorite HH places. They have a great menu of HH bites along with their regular menu. This time we tried the lobster flatbread.... wow! Delish! I always have to have a few half price oysters (my dinner companion was squeamish....lol) and a painkiller cocktail. This time my dinner companion wanted a sandwich so we had a french dip.... the kitchen kindly split it for us (always nice). My daughter-in-law thinks that Max's has one of the best hamburgers in town! I'll be back, bringing more friends. Maybe even some that like raw oysters....

I went with a friend for happy hour and was delighted by the experience! The atmosphere is warm and beachy, creating a great vibe for a relaxed outing. Our server, Savannah, was fantastic--she made excellent recommendations and was on top of everything! Their happy hour menu is solid, offering a wide range of food and drinks at reasonable prices, with $2 off all apps, specialty cocktails, and $2 oysters. I ordered a Painkiller, which was perfectly balanced--refreshing with just the right mix of juices and rum. My friend and I shared the French Dip sandwich, Lobster Flatbread, and a few happy hour oysters. The oysters were a bit small but very fresh. The sandwich and flatbread were both delicious, and the kitchen even split the sandwich for us without needing to ask, which we appreciated. They also have great specials throughout the week, like Beer and Burger Mondays, Tiki Tuesdays, Wine Brine and Beer Wednesdays, Thirsty Thursdays, and Hangover Happy Hour on Saturdays and Sundays. The menu is well-rounded and reasonably priced, with options for both seafood and non-seafood lovers. Oh, and happy hour lasts all day on Thursdays!

This place has been on our "to go" list for a long time, however it wasn't actually until getting a discount through Offline we decided to go. Ambience is great, really a fun quirky place inside! Service was also good and very fast, however, our entrees came out WAY too fast as we were only partly through our appetizer. I got the key lime martini which was really tasty and my fiancé got a traditional margarita which was very strong! We then shared the mussels as our appetizer, and it's a really good amount! They were good, a few overly fishy ones but that was definitely the minority. We then got the shrimp po boy which was massive with old bay fries, and the green chile lobster Mac and cheese, which was all really yummy! I would return again and am definitely interested in sitting in another room because they all look so fun and unique!

This place has never disappointed me in any way. Its casual atmosphere is inviting for any size party with your family or friends or even your date. Seafood that tastes good at affordable prices is what people can go for here. I appreciate the generous Happy Hour menu. Everyday from 3pm to 6pm. With $2 off ALL appetizers, you can share some plates with others as most of them are a good portion. House wines are $5 during HH; if you like white wines go for the refreshing Sauvignon Blanc that is of great quality. Our waiter, Laurent F was so easygoing with us. Attentive, prompt are words I use to describe him as an efficient waiter with very little effort. It was a quick early dinner for us at 4:30pm and we lacked nothing during the time we were there. Shrimp Ceviche was good. I don't necessarily say that it was the best kind I've ever had and yet it surely didn't disappoint us. Max Mussels are a must order item from the menu as it's a good portion. Make sure to eat the soup at the bottom of the bowl once you're done with the mussels; you may have to order more bread to soak it in it!
