  • They've been here FOREVER. I feel ancient just thinking about it. Once upon a time over 15 years ago their blueberry meringue cake was famous and to-die-for because quantity and quality were generous and they did not skimp on size, cream, butter, sugar, fruit, portion balance, etc. But now, just like most mom-and-pop restaurant businesses and lesser-known fastfood franchises in the GTA that serve/sit 30-50 people, something's gotta give in a less-than-stellar economy topped with a high cost of living. Their meringue cake, black forest, white chocolate, cheesecake, etc are now sub par in quality and quantity, and prices can only grow larger while slices only shrink smaller. Maxim's tries to survive in other creative ways such as offering weekend oldies music lounge performances which is pretty nice if you want to take your momma out somewhere for "After Eight" fun and entertainment. But beyond that, you can pick up better meringue, cakes, and pastries in other cafes and high end grocery stores. How they survive is reliance on middle class old Bayview neighbourhood regulars and their next of kin to stop by. The retired doctors, lawyers, ex-pats, entrepreneurs and private school-educated folks who've lived in the area since before the 90s. Some advice: If you are going to continue and charge a fine dining price, you should update your melamine plates and serve your desserts on finer tableware (i.e., the breakable kind).
