Although the interior of Maxi's may feel like it hasn't been updated since the 70s, this is the perfect lunch or dinner spot for a delicious pizza and people watching!
I was pleasantly surprised at how fresh the mozzarella was here in both the meatball pizza and the fried mozzarella. The pizza was perfect: not too doughy, not too thin, with the right amount of sauce.
I heard the couple behind us saying their calamari wasn't good, so perhaps this isn't a good place for any seafood dish. Stick to pizza (and why wouldn't you in Little Italy?)!
I don't think the food and atmosphere matches the price, unfortunately. What we got were safe dishes, all things considered. I've eaten here before and was disappointed in the pasta, so I knew better this time around.
