| - Maxi's knows how to do happy hour! And for once, I'm not talking about the drinks/drink specials that are featured, I'm talking about the food/food deals! Maxi's food is spot on any time of the day, but during happy hour, it's not only delicious, but it's perfectly priced! You certainly can't go wrong with some skillfully sautéed and sauced calamari (best in town) and an artichoke pizza with an ice cold Stella. Seriously. Fabulous. And when you're saving dollars, it's even better! (Happy hour alleviates my previous price complaint.)
Refer to my previous review for the calamari. Now, the pizza. This pizza was exactly what I expected and wanted! Soft, warm crust. Cheesy, artichokey. Great! Definitely recommended. Also, it reheats well!
There can be some seating hiccups, especially if you come on a Wednesday (I think?) night and want to sit at the bar for the happy hour deals. We staked out some seats for quite awhile just for some calamari and a beer, but it was totally worth it. I'm not sure if it really depends on the night you come here, or if it's just a random crowd, but it can get hairy in this tiny joint if you don't plan ahead.
Sometimes the service can be iffy, but that's with any place. You just have to snag a bartender when you need one and make sure you place your order quick!
