    My first time to this area and Maxwells didn’t disappoint. I ate at the bar since I was out here by myself on business. Every aspect of their food and the friendliness of the two bartenders was exceptional. Highly, highly recommend this restaurant for locals or for those just passing through.

    First time there! Great food and super large/diverse wine list. Very helpful server "Jen" suggested a surprise wine pairing with both our salmon and elk choices. Would definitely return when in the area.
