Cafe Max - Brooklyn

I had a quite pleasant experience that exceeded my expectations. Overall, the food was good. Some of the prices felt a bit high, but the quality was generally consistent. The dishes were fresh, and the staff was friendly, though I wished they were a bit more knowledgeable and helpful regarding the menu. When I inquired about what a particular dish included, I was told to refer to the picture, which didn’t quite match reality. However, it did come with rice, which was a bit over-fried and oddly contained onions—a surprising detail for someone with an onion allergy.

The owner takes a cut of the staff's tips! Can you believe how cheap and unprofessional that is? It's outrageous! I can only imagine someone working there out of sheer desperation. My husband ordered tea and received it in a nice glass, while I ordered coffee and it came in a large paper cup. I understand it’s not the waitress's fault, as that's the standard, but the coffee tasted overwhelmingly of milk with barely any coffee flavor. When I mentioned I didn't want it, she couldn’t take it off the bill because her intimidating "boss" said we had to pay for it anyway. However, he later changed his mind and told the waitress to remove it from the bill, but with the catch that it would come out of her paycheck. As a result, we ended up tipping her out of sympathy for her terrible boss.

I visited this restaurant for lunch with my parents, and we loved everything—the food was delicious, the atmosphere was wonderful, and the service was exceptional! Thank you very much!

A German beers are awesome! Kebab is pretty cool and the falafel dish.

Amazing place with wide choice of quality food and drinks, very attentive personnel, clean and child friendly. Highly recommend!
