We've been going to Max's for years, in fact we used to take all visitors to Hobee's and the Redwood City Max's because they have something for everyone. We decided to go back to the Burlingame one today since we hadn't gone in 6 years and were on the way. The server was really good. He really seemed busy but always got us what we asked for. The kids' meals looked great. Actually, one kid got the sliders and Max's has the best sliders (mini-burgers) because their rolls are good. I ordered a grilled chicken sandwich which was kind of overcooked (so were the fries, too) but healthy enough. I also love their bread -- they have a raisin/golden raisin bread that they bring to your table and it's really good! That's one of the main things I like about the place. They also have great desserts. We usually get cake or ice cream, but they had great looking brownie sundaes (my favorite) and their banana split looked amazing -- bananas; vanilla, chocolate and coffee ice cream, pieces of their bar cookies, nuts, whipped cream and toppings. I really wish I had gotten it! We ended up getting cake to go -- their cake is great and you can get a "half" slice, which isn't too big and is about $4. Great food and choices!
