Description

Recent visits to the restaurant have raised concerns about potential cost-cutting measures, as some dishes seemed lower in quality and higher in price. Some guests were disappointed by overly onion-filled dishes and watery sauces, while others found the duck dish to be dry and salty. Despite these negative experiences, many diners still praise the authenticity and value of the food, with some returning multiple times for the great ambience and friendly service. However, a few guests were put off by what they perceived as unwelcoming treatment from staff. Overall, opinions on the restaurant are mixed, with some raving about delicious food and fantastic service, while others were left feeling disappointed and unwelcome.

My daughter booked this for my wife,s birthday as she loves dim Sum, there were 11 of us. The service was excellent, friendly and very good with the young children efficient and helpful. The food was outstanding as good as in top London restaurant or Hong Kong, we really enjoyed it and a little surprised at how good it was. The decor was also very detailed and nicely done. Definitely a must go to place.

Another 5 Star review for Maxis … celebrated my Mam’s 90th Birthday there in August and had a great day, returned again today for a Christmas Family get together, and found the same caring and friendly service and fantastic food. Many thanks, as always to the hard working and talented staff at Maxis. Regards Tony

Tasteless, low quality food. Most dishes were bulked up by huge amounts of chopped onion. The satay sauce had never seen a peanut. The only discernable flavour was from chilli powder in the Szechuan chicken. The prices for this awful food are outrageous. Will never return and I don't recommend it to anyone. And what's going on in this business? On a Tuesday night there must have been more than 15 staff just hanging around. Weird, and made us feel uncomfortable.

The servers were nice enough, food came pretty quickly. The food was not great, chicken boiled and unappetising, cost a lot

(Take Away) Not good at all. Chips tasted reheated and cardboard-like and looked grey. The chicken was tough and over-cooked. It was the first time I had tried the food here off the back of a recommendation and I can honestly say there are much much better places at half the cost. The food here just isn't worth the money. A real disappointment.
