Ask to be seated in Lindsay's , MJ's, or Austin's section. And Victor is always there to make sure you always have everything you need. The food at brunch always great. My favorite? Too many to list!
This champagne & fried chicken joint 's Summer menu matches highbrow tastes with gluttonous, comfort-style prep. Recommended: The Roasted Lockhart Quail with Peach Butter and house Bacon Marmalade . Read more
Order the southern fried chicken . You can have them split your dish in case you want to share for $2. The fried egg sandwich is also delicious. Complete this scrumptious brunch with bubbles!
Best damn truffle Mac n cheese I've ever had. They let me get a half order too, which, with the awesome arugula pear salad I had, was the perfect amount!
One might question their definition of “dive,” but here’s what this ATX outpost indisputably offers up: an urban/industrial/aggressively "hip " space, legit fried chicken , and a superior brunch option. Read more
Max’s has to be the only place in town where you can get amazing wine and tasty fried chicken . The restaurant and wine bar offers an expansive food menu and they’re open for lunch ! Read more
Go with no more than two other people, sit at the bar , and do tastings and learn with Matt. He is fantastic. Then buy bottles of the wine you loved at retail .
$5 wine list available during happy hour . Servers are happy to help you find a glass of wine that matches both your taste and price range at any time.
Order the chicken and waffles but honestly you don't need the waffles because the chicken is good. The waffle has orange zest so be careful if you are allergic.
Can't beat the grilled cheese and tomato soup combo after a great night out. This place is great for late nights .
Get the fried chicken , if only a piece on the side! So freakin' delicious. And the fried egg sandwich for brunch is a must!
The jar of hummus with pita triangles was amazing! I also had the burger which was good, but a little over-charred on the outside. Overall I would definitely go back.
The famous southern fried chicken and waffles is the best southern food in Austin, which is why it’s on our list of The Tastes That Make the City : Austin. Read more
Competitively priced wines , mouth-wateringly good fried foods & a motto that reads: "Fried Chicken & Champagne After Midnight-Why the Hell Not?" Get Pan Borracho, Fried Chicken and Alligator Beignets .
Awesome restaurant with an eclectic menu ! Try the Pork Stuffed Piquillo Peppers , Bone Marrow Popcorn , Max n' Cheese and Green Chili Hummus !
The gluten free fried chicken is so good you should book a flight to Austin just to eat it.
Nothing like hanging with great long time friends for Sunday Brunch ! And get the poppy seed pancakes with lavender maple syrup , or the smoked salmon and cream cheese omelet !
The vegan Max 'n Cheese is unbelievably amazing. They use cashews to make the cheese flavor. Order it and thank me later.
Great service and friendly staff . Sit at the bar and watch the food come out.
Great post-session atmosphere. Awesome wine selection and some great beers too. Not a wino? Get a Fireman's No. 4
Pulled pork stuffed pequillo peppers . Soooo good! Great wine list too.
LEGIT! Don't let the name or the decor fool you. This place has some of the best food around. If you crave comfort food , Max's is the place to be.
Chicken and Waffles is weird and tasty! Jalapeño Grits w Pulled Pork topped with a fried egg is damn excellent too
They give you a wine tasting option till you find the one you actually like! I love the antelope , too!
Ask about the brunch specials . Chicken fried pork chop with jalapeño gravy and grits and a fried egg is excellent.
Their Famous Fried Shicken...it's not bad. Personally, I like a kick in the mouth when it comes to flavor. Good vibes, good wine , good beer . ^.^
Try the grapefruit mimosa ! Delicious alternative to orange juice ! AND chef Erica is an expert at her craft! Beautiful!
Ben at the bar is a wonderful server! Thanks Ben! Food was great. The underground was a fantastic venue for our event .
Get the Fried Egg sandwich - but share it with a friend. It's HUGE & Oh-Soooo-Delicious!!!
I don't do bones in my chicken and they hooked me up!! Staff was incredible!! Server recommended several great wines , prices were very pleasant !!!
Ask for Lindsey! She's fantastic. Great service. Food was slow but it's so gooooood you forget about the wait. Also mamosas!
Mac with the fried chicken topper gets you the best of both of their dishes in one bowl!
THE spot for late night wining & dining..especially if you are in the mood for gourmet comfort food & divine wines ...even Texas Monthly crowned them with a Best Burger vote! Read more
Pretty decent mashed potatoes , and good chicken , but the wait was absurd.
Though max's is a far cry from what I'd call a dive, it has a nice atmosphere. Great lunch menu ! Nice beer selection & great wine .
Great place for champagne & waffles ! Also have a great seasonal summer menu .
The fired chicken Benedict was delicious. A bit pricier than expected
Any one of their 100-plus bottles is available by the glass, and be sure to check in later at night for their "reverse happy hour ." Read more
The fried chicken , greens and mashed potatoes is to die for!!
Sunday Brunch is awesome! Make sure you make a reservation !
Always a must for me during SXSW, or for any trip to Austin.
Lamb Burger or Kobe Burger . Bison Sliders . Fried Green Tomatoes . Chips . Love this place @rynomite
Honey-Butter Benedict is AMAZING. Just come hungry!
Try the Blue Corn Pancakes - Delicious! Side of crispy bacon rounds out the meal!
The fried chicken is amazing. Best in Austin!!
Best wings and waffles I've tried in Austin
Awesome happy hour menu with great wines and beers for less dough ! Pitchers of MWD sangria , anyone?
Fried egg Sammy is awesome. But don't get it for just yourself
Burger is top notch and the fries are wonderfully crispy
Antelope was a good choice. Best and first antelope I've ever had!
Anything with tuna is fantastic. Also, love the appetizers. - Laura Mathieu
They have a separate vegetarian menu, if you let them know you need it and are very accommodating on making items vegan. Excellent service, great you by name. You do need a reservation on weekends. - Kat Mandelstein
