Max Lager's was one of the first restaurants to bring the fresh and natural wood-fired menu concept to Atlanta. The art of cooking with wood enhances the Max Lager's experience with bold flavors simply not found with alternative cooking methods. We feel that the investment made in the wood-fired grill is an investment that pays great dividends to our guests.

All Max Lager's menu items are prepared daily from scratch. Wood-fired steaks, burgers, seafood, ribs, and pizza are Max Lager's signature items. An inspired selection of entrée salads and pastas add variety to the American menu.

    Expensive glass of wine $14.00 a glass. My husband loved his meal -Salmon, whipped potatoes and Asparagus. My filet was great. Cost over all with tip $200.00 too much for this restaurant. I spent that much the night before and had (2) appetizers, wine , meal and (2) desserts for the day price at a fancier restaurant.

    Getting seated was a mess, had reservations but still a decent wait while other larger parties were seated. Said we couldn’t sit in the bar as there was no server, then proceeded to seat people in the bar. Once seated the waiter was great, super friendly and attentive. Food was good - we had pizzas, ribs and chicken.

    Food and drinks were good but service was not. We had to speak to the host again after no waiter came to our table and he only came back after we ordered once. As an out of town diner, we probably will not be back.

    Table was not ready at the time of our reservation. After waiting 30 minutes, spots opened at the bar so we decided to take them. Never heard back from the hostess. House beer is mediocre at best. It is served in a warm, dirty glass that spoils any remaining glimmer of hope. Suggest sticking with canned beer and avoiding the glassware. Service nonexistent. Food is ok, but it is a moot point after 2 hours waiting.

    Cowboy steak good quality. But way too much salt. They are gonna kill someone. Fish grouper over cooked, just okay dish for price. Okay value. Definitely not a high end place.

    It was a very busy night so not too surprised but I ordered a medium rare steak and it came very rare. Too bad it looked great. Other than that excellent service but because of the crowd and a very big group our server never came back to check on our meals.

    One bartender at a brewery so couldn’t get a flight and the upstairs bar was closed. Our server was amazing but the food was alright. We waited an hour before we found an open table reservation and got seated in 15 minutes.

    Love max lagers ribs and collards but , this night was not a good experience. Had been craven ribs and collards for a month. They were tough and not falling off the bone like usual. Chef was not happy with my complaint and took offense.

    Every time we’re in Atlanta, this is our last night of market dinner! It never disappoints. The pork chop are my favorite, the salmon is delicious and love the appetizers. We we so sad in July that they had discontinued the fried cheesecake- so we just happened to tell the waitress this time and to our delight- it’s back. The fried cheesecake it a must! It’s always loud in here but that’s part of the charm.

    Knowledge of gluten free options is limited. Ribs were dry and cooked to death. “Cole slaw” was just a pile of shredded carrots with no dressing. My companions seemed to enjoy their fish, however. Restaurant is very loud, not good for conversation. One of my companions got locked in the bathroom stall and had to crawl under the door. Won’t be back.

    Our server, Bernard (aka Bernie, Bern, Nard and more) was fantastic. He was attentive and very accommodating to our indecisive party of four. He made our outing a pleasure. Three of us enjoyed flat breads and one had the fried chicken. We sampled several of the beers and were pleased with everything. We were also very happy to enjoy their seasoned collard greens as we visited on New Years Day. This place will be a repeat for us next time we’re in town.

    Terrible terrible terrible. We had a reservation but it seemed they couldn’t decide where to put us. Finally we’re seated, near the kitchen and near the end if the bar where the wait staff picks up the drinks. There was quite the congregation of wait staff but no one came to our table. We got lots of looks but no service. We waited a while and then left. The manager looked surprised. We found a wonderful place near our hotel, spent lots of money there and tipped our very attentive wait staff lots of money. Too bad for Max Lagers. Don’t go there!!!!

    Great spot for quality food and local brew! Reservation was honored right on time. Wish they had more TVs. Don't expect much from the cocktail bar, and service was slow and clunky. But we were in no hurry and enjoyed our time there. Will be back.

    What a surprise! I wasn't sure what to expect at Max Lagers since a friend had recommended it to me but I was so pleased with the experience. The food was so good! I would recommend the creole bbq shrimp, collard greens and the red velvet cake. The cheesecake is a different spin on the traditional cheesecake and we really enjoyed that too. Bernard, our server, was phenomenal and he even sang happy birthday to me. He's got some talent! Overall, get out of the burbs and head to downtown to Max Lagers. I'll be back soon!
