TOP 3 MAX DOWNTOWN REVIEWS
We were very on the fence about booking this reservation as we did not want to risk having an expensive meal that was not worth it. Max Downtown was worth every penny. The service was top notch and more importantly all of the food was fantastic. We tried the lobster pierogi and crab tostada per our servers recommendations and both were fantastic. Don't skip the espresso martini, they are wonderfully dark and freshly made. It was refreshing to have a dining experience where the servers clearly cared about making your meal worth it. We will definitely be returning for our next special occasion.
Birthday celebration & we are happy we chose max to celebrate it , the server Amy c was great , the food was excellent,very effective and friendly valet service plus host . We went on a busy night which was very surprising on a Wednesday but the service was still top notch. Only problem was the seating were a bit too close . We will definitely come back.
From the food & drinks to the service, what a fantastic spot for after work. The bar is a very popular spot too. The crab cake was a 10 out of 10, and the rest of the food was incredibly fresh. I highly recommend THE OAXACAN LOVE AFFAIR if you like mezcal/tequila style drinks. Big shout out to Jason- great server.

TOP 3 BLUE PLATE KITCHEN REVIEWS
We had breakfast at BPK and we enjoyed ourselves! Our server was SUPER nice and accommodating. She was friendly and professional. She accommodated the changes I wanted for the wrap and it came out correct! The food itself was good. It was reasonably priced and the portion was appropriate. I ordered the egg white and turkey bacon wrap and my husband ordered the biscuits & gravy. My wrap was good if you like something standard. It was a little oily. The biscuit was good too. I think a fun take on the traditional biscuits and gravy. I'd definitely go back to try other items! It was a cute restaurant with great service so I'd love to give more items a try :)
Went here yesterday for breakfast. While I was drinking water I felt something in my mouth really odd I checked to see what it was and there was a piece of glass. I told the waitor and he told the manager right away she came and apologized and told us the breakfast was on her! I was extremely happy that they didn't take the situation minor because if I swallowed that I would've had really extreme problems. She was very kind and I left satisfied. This is how management should treat you! Great job! Breakfast was good too.
Omg the food was delightful! The eggs were well cooked, they actually listened and mixed the cheese in instead of on top. The bread was huge only ate half. But the fritz with cedar cheese was to die for.
