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.

    It was a slower Tuesday evening, made a reservation but certainly didn't need one. They had several nice beers on tap and a full bar too, Tried the pilsner, it was decent. I tried one of the wood fired pizzas...it was slightly better than decent. The barkeep was very friendly and helpful. My dining companion tried several of the beers and enjoyed them all. all in all a nice place to watch the game and grab some grub.

    Arrived at restaurant, barely anyone inside for 5pm Sunday dining, but admit that's early for dinner; I'm sure it's more lively during the week or Saturday at later time. The server took order and delivered food to table, then never came back. Drinks were not refilled, waited like 20 minutes after being done then just asked another server to call ours. It was not known where she was, and she was less than enthusiastic or not feeling well or upset about something. Manager eventually brought us the bill and said our server was in the restroom- I dunno about that answer. Anyway, the food was okay, not exciting. Menu and hype made place seem more enjoyable than our experience. If walking with family from museum area nearby, keep family close. There's a large homeless population just outside the restaurant and at the nearby park/arch. Felt bill was overpriced the food we had. Great for an airport location where these prices can be charged and food not requiring high expectations. We will not be returning to this location or any of their other locations.

    Booking the reservation ahead of time helped a lot during the crowded time at Dragoncon. It was great knowing I had a table to eat with a friend from out of town. One less thing to worry about.

    It took over an hour for our food to come out. The fried foods tasted nearly burnt. Our server tried to make it better. We knew she was running all over and obviously they were severely short staffed. The restaurant was only 60% full inside and somehow our server got two large groups within a short time. But the kitchen was taking way too long to get food out. All in all we were there nearly 2 hours... for a so-so meal. I'm crossing it off the list of places I go during the convention.

    I went here for a nicer dinner on a convention trip, but the meal was essentially the level of a chili's or TGI Fridays at triple the price. I ordered a rare steak, and it came completely grey and well-done. I ordered a Manhattan and it was watered down before it reached the table, poured over lots of small Ice. They also tried to upcharge me 3 dollars for using the bourbon that was in the drink description. It just seems like another place that doesn't really need to be all that good because they are near conventions.

    Food and drinks took longer than normal. Waitress wasn’t attentive so we’d wait long periods for small things. Ultimately I wish we were elsewhere.

    We were traveling through Atlanta and decided to give Max Lager's Grill a try. What a treat! The historic building in downtown Atlanta wowed us before we even found a place to park. Everyone was welcoming and helpful, and our food came quickly. We shared a house salad and a veggie pizza (plus pepperoni) and it was all fresh and delicious. Prices are reasonable. Look for an open parking meter, because there is no dedicated parking in this urban location.

    Been there many times. It’s usually very good. This must have been a very bad “off night”, for them. The food was all over cooked and the drinks were all sub par. Hope they get back to where they were!

    Nice dinner. Our server took time to explain items. Had a very nice shrimp appetizer and the three of us all had different types of entrees (steak, a sandwich and a brick oven pizza) and all three were good. Had the fried cheesecake for dessert. Would definitely have that again. Very good.
