About the restaurant

Max's Café was built in 1890 as a shoe store. In 1912, 34 North Burlington Street reopened as Leisinger's Saloon for the next 25 years even through prohibition (as a "soft drink establishment"). In 1937, Leisinger's Saloon passed through the family & was renamed Max's Cafe; it’s name for the next 65 years. In 1977, a new simply prepared fresh seafood menu transformed Max's Cafe into Max’s Seafood Café. The neighboring building was acquired to seat the growing number of patrons from both sides of the Delaware River, often forming lines around the corner, waiting to enjoy fresh flounder, shrimp, clams, & most of all, Steamed Mussels! Max's reputation grew for the next 22 years before age & neglect left it in a state of disrepair. The bar restaurant closed in July of 1998 & remained dormant for 2 ½ years. Refurbished in late 2000, Max's Seafood Cafe reopened on June 2, 2001 to continue its tradition of hospitality, impeccably fresh seafood, & most of all Steamed mussels.

A retro cafe with classic and trendy food we had a mix off the menu and specials. The mussels were plump and flavorful calamari crispy but not over cooked. The scallops special was incredible please put on new menu also blackened mahi was flavorful. Tried chocolate mousse which is not overly sweet as dark chicolate; blueberry-lemon cheesecake perfect for summer and cappuccino creme brulee which might have kept me up late lol. We will be back as a new menu is in works.

Connor, our server, was very professional explaining the menu and making recommendations. He was also very engaging. He was fun but still professional. Katie, the hostess was very sweet and showed us to a lovely table. The decor was beautiful without being over decorated. The location of the restaurant was lovely.

Very good food and we had a great server. We sat outside because of a big party that had booked the entire restaurant. The music was a bit too loud and slightly inappropriate for dinner music. Overall good experience.
