    My wife and I decided to try Maxie's as it is a long time restaurant in the Des Moines area. This was a Thursday evening and it was not especially busy. The wait staff was attentive and personable. We had a bottle of wine and split a steak. I would say if you live in the neighborhood it would be fine to go to. The food was passing, but not exceptional and it felt a little run down.

    Had not been to Maxie's since ownership changed. Dined with a total party of six on a Saturday night the place was full. We had made reservations a week out and were seated promptly upon arriving. Started with onion rings which were ok but felt like missing salt. Main entrees ordered included - spaghetti, salmon, fettuccine Alfredo, and filet deburgo (pictured) and very fairly priced. All entrees were fantastic! Our waitress was extremely nice with great attitude and prompt. only bad thing about the experience was trying to find parking. Ate at Tom Arthur's a few weeks back and the food here is much better. Will definitely put this in rotation of places on the westside.

    Maxie's was a staple in my family growing up. So excited they were able to find new owners. Maxie's brings back many memories of Jimmy and my father. My sister and her family and my boyfriend and I went went for dinner on a Friday night. We made a reservation. The place was mostly full when we got there. The menu contains a few classic "maxie" dishes. We all ended up ordering the prime rib. Everything was great. The meat was cooked to each of our requests. The asparagus was cooked perfectly. I'm so happy to know this "Des Moines" classic is still around.

    Maxie's has become a staple in my family for any get together or celebrations. It has a supper club feeling to it and the service has always been quick yet not rushed. I haven't found the steak to be that special but I enjoy the prime rib and hamburger. We love to get their onion rings for the table - huge servings!

    We've always wanted to try this place & with family in town, it was the best time! We called ahead of time, got a reservation & looked at the options. The menu is different than whats listed online, but we were all still able to find something. Arriving, parking was limited, but a nice quaint building. Inside was a little darker than excepted but very clean & nice. Many reviews of onion rings being the best, so we had to try them. I love shoestring onions & these were good! Not greasy or salty! Side mushrooms are always a must & these did not disappoint. The flavor was amazing & for only getting 3, they were a good size. Everyone in the group got something different & we all enjoyed the meal. Drinks were also good & pricing was reasonable. Our waitress was fun & I only take away a star as separate tickets was a complete mess. I wouldn't mind going back & trying more.

    Picking someplace "between home and the airport" is always a challenge for us. We had a little extra time so Maxie's it was, and we love "supper clubs". Although now, after our great experience, I want to try about 8 more items so we'll be returning soon! On the way there, and looking at the menu online, I was saying that I wished more places had a steak salad, rounding out my red meat and vegetable cravings. Unfortunately, we ordered before I saw the specials menu on the table that had a delicious sounding steak salad. Server said it's been so popular they may put it on their regular menu. So I'll have to go back for this and other items. Ribeye w/ baked potato, salad (with the GOOD ranch) and a side of onion rings (all included with the ribeye). Can't comment on the potato, I didn't eat it. Onion rings are popular here but I like thicker ones, so I didn't really eat most of mine; tried one and liked the batter though. Steak was grilled perfectly med-rare, seasoning delicious. French Dip was also delicious, loved the salty au jus and, of course, we had more onion rings. Plentiful on the meat, roll was perfect for dipping, loved this French Dip! Boursin Mushrooms were added to our meal last minute because we saw them on the specialty menu after placing our order. They were delicious. Different than other places, this had a layer of melted cheese but it was still good. I like Club Car's better but I'm still glad we got these. ‍Server Jeanie was prompt and helpful. Knowing we were in a little bit of a hurry, she brought out our food altogether w/ our check, which was greatly appreciated. About the only complaint we had was that our iced tea was watered down. Nothing major and not really important, and was forgotten about because everything else was so outstanding. Pricing is very reasonable (receipt and menu pics for those that like to see prices). Can't wait to go back with a larger group, soon!!

    Grilled Chicken Salad

    Service 4 and Food 2 = Rating of 3 I had not been here in many years. I suspect the loyal crowd is great with some things that don't work well for me and if I ran it, I'd probably do the same. Our server, Hannah was great...checked in frequently and brought refills as soon as we needed them without prompting. The food was just OK. My dining companion got a burger and subbed out veggies for the fries/rings as he is on a diet. He said the burger had a good taste, and the veggies were OK, but nothing special - simply steamed. I got the grilled chicken salad. All iceberg lettuce and somewhat dry chicken with egg, tomato, and raw baby carrots. I would have preferred a more interesting mix of greens, but I get that I may be in the minority of the regular guests of this establishment. The dressing was good, and baby carrots were an interesting choice vs. shredded or diced. It is an iconic restaurant that has weathered the years...probably just not my kind of grub, but I'm sure it works well for many!

    Side Salad with creamy Parmesan- so good!

    I've been going here since I was young, and I've seen the stages Maxies has had. When they closed I felt sad because of all the memories and many family dinners I've had here. My boyfriend and I went back to try the famous Maxie burgers again, and they did not disappoint!! Delicious as I remember and service was great!! Will be returning.

    Medium rare 8 oz. Maxie burger with mushroom and Swiss.

    Food was very good, came out fast. Server was very nice. Definitely a local place to go to the decor here gives an old vibe.

Our primary reason for stopping back tonight was for 'research and development' for my happyhourdesmoines.com website. This meant a smaller total check, as we only sampled a couple of Happy Hour specials - and they were quite tasty. We shared an order of Chicken Wings (see picture) and I ordered a House Margarita (see picture). The chicken wings were very good and I'll say that I enjoyed the House Margarita as much as the better ones in Mexican restaurants. We have enjoyed all of our stops at Bix & Co. and tonight was no different.

Wow, amazing flavor that just smacks your taste buds awake. What a fantastic start. The Burger & Tots were good which we split. The burger is chuck, brisket, and short rib ground to perfection on a South Union Bakery Bun. The tots were nice and crispy. The pizza was fantastic! We choose Tony's combo no olives or shrooms, add onion with the Cup & Char Pepperoni and Graziano Sausage. Cracker this crust and the Bix's pizza sauce. What a fantastic pizza, so delicious and perfect. The service was great and we will be back.

We've driven by this place and talked about stopping for food before and my wife had been there with co-workers after work one day, but this was our first stop for food. A clean, modern storefront greets you (see picture) and with plenty of televisions and a nice patio, it looks to be a hopping place once the temperatures warm up a little. While our server was a little hard to find at times, we both found our food to be quite good. My wife ordered the Nacho Burrito Meal (see picture) and I opted for the Honey Citrus salad (see picture). As is our custom, we shared samples of each of our meals and both of us found both choices to be worthy of ordering again. I really liked the clean, crisp and fresh salad with a delicious tangy dressing and the Burrito was tasty inside and out (loved the creamy, cheesy sauce). If you are looking for a great stop for Sunday morning brunch (possibly after some shopping at Sam's Club just across the interstate to the North), you won't go wrong here!

Both times I have been so happy with my burgers but especially the last time because I added a garlic aioli to it and it was divine. The sweet potato fries are so good as well. My burger has been perfectly made each time too just how I ask for it to be cooked. I can't iterate enough how happy it makes me when I find a place who offers gf options because of my allergy. The service is fast and the ambiance seems good too. I'd like to try going here for brunch because I've heard good things about it as well. Their patio seems perfect for spring/summer time. I'll keep you all updated if I dine in here anytime soon.
