We enjoyed our dinner at Maie Day. The food was very good. The Ribeye, the Redfish, and the green beans were absolutely delicious. We would go back again for those items. The collard greens were not cooked enough and were a bit bitter. The staff was very friendly. They encourage 'family style' dining which we did and it was fine except for the fact that they sat the 4 of us at a very small table for 4. There was very little room for all of the things we ordered plus our plates. It was a Thursday night and the place was not crowded so I felt like they should have seated us at a larger table. Next time we will remember to ask for that. The food and drinks are a bit pricey for what you get but it was a special occasion for us so we splurged. I would recommend this restaurant for a night out or a special occasion.

Our first time to dine here and we really enjoyed it! We all ate the Prime Rib special with Mash Potatoes and split a Caesar salad. It was very good. We each had some PR leftover. It was a huge portion! We will definitely come back to try other menu items! We were seated close to the musicians and thought it was a little loud. Enjoyed the music and the atmosphere other than it was a little loud.

**Awesome Spot – Worth the Wait!** Just had an amazing meal here, and wow, the food was so good! The wait for my ribeye was totally worth it—it was juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. Big shoutout to **Andrea** for the excellent service! She was super attentive and made the experience even better. The vibe here is really nice too—chill, welcoming, and just a great place to enjoy a meal. Highly recommend this spot! Can’t wait to come back. 👌🍽️

I took my man here to celebrate Father's Day and I am so glad that I chose this place. He loved it from the time we walked through the door. It was an amazing experience, from the customer service to the food. He couldn't decided what he wanted to to eat. Everything was delightful. We even had music. I highly recommend this venue.

I recently dined at Maie Day, and while the food had its highlights, the service left a bit to be desired. We ordered the burger, steak and frites, and the mahi mahi. Unfortunately, we were told they had run out of potatoes, which meant the steak and frites became more of a steak and hamburger combo with a baked potato on the side. Not ideal, but we rolled with it. The burger itself was decent, and the steak looked appetizing—something I’d consider ordering on a return visit. That said, the service really impacted the experience. Our food took longer than expected to arrive, and drink service was notably slow. I waited several minutes to order a second drink before finally getting up and walking over to our server, who was leaning on the bar. I had asked for a side of mayo with my burger but was given sour cream instead. When I requested mayo again, it didn’t arrive until I was nearly finished eating. To their credit, the staff seemed aware of the issues and brought out a complimentary dessert, which we appreciated. I was referred to this place with high expectations, so I left feeling a bit let down. However, I do see potential—especially in the kitchen—and I’d be willing to give it another shot, particularly to try that steak that looked so good on its way to another table.

We went around 6:25 and it wasn’t busy at all! Started getting busy the later it got. The location is great - right on South Congress. After you get done, you can walk around, shop, get ice cream! I got the fried Mahi Mahi and it was SO GOOD. My partner got the burger and she said it was the best burger ever. We got the blooming onion and potato rolls for appetizers and oh my goodness… definitely get the potato rolls. SO YUMMY! I also got a mocktail and it was so yummy. Honestly, everything was really yummy. Definitely recommend!!!!
