Does this look like 3 family orders? No it doesn't looks more like 1 order or two. We're very disappointed and already made our 30 minute drive back home. They claimed this would feed 5-6 hence why we ordered THREE FAMILY SIZE MEALS. 90$ THIS LOOKS MORE LIKE 40$ worth from panda. read more

Maxi's Chinese Restaurant - Food - Chinese Near Me - Marysville, Washington

Got food to go, 2 different dinner combinations. I got home and discovered they forgot to put the sauce on my almond chicken, literally just dry chicken with almonds on top. Called them and they offered to give me a new order of Almond Chicken, so I said I'd head back over to get it. When I got there a drunken screaming fight was spilling out of the bar onto the sidewalk. Not necessarily their fault, just added to the vibe. Also they had forgot to make my food that we spoke about on the phone and the dude tried pretty hard to give me soup instead of the chicken he promised, I already had soup anyways, it came with the meal. Had to wait an extra 15 minutes for food to be made and when I got back home and opened it up the new food was old, tiny, dry, fried chicken scraps like popcorn chicken, as if they scraped it out of the fryer. It was inedible and gross. Overall the Food smelled great, but taste was a letdown. My family all ended up with upset stomachs and eating TUMS for desert. read more

When these new owners tookover this place it was pretty good. Iv been going here for 10 years. Unfortunately I will not be going back to this place untill new owners take over someday, witch my be sooner than later at the rate there going. Today took my mom and daughter there for lunch. Me and my daughter orderd the same thing sweet and sour chicken and Mongolian beef what we normally get but instead of beef we get chicken because there beef is just full of fat. This time there were no noddles in the Mongolian beef like Normal and way to many onions and the plate was drenched in sauce and the chicken tasted off like it was frezzer burn or something just had a weird tast to it. Sence the Mongolian beef didn't have any noodles like normal I ordered a side of crunchy noodles also to soak up some of the sause witch was way to much. She acually charged me $2.50 for a little had full. I ate a few pices of the chicken and couldn't eat any more because of the wierd tast. I put the rest of the chicken on a separate plate and told the watress withch I belive is the owners wife. She took the plate and took it to the kitchin and came back out and told me the chicken was fine. WTF I could belive she said that to me who is she to tell the customer whats good or not. Sence she probably from china maby they do things differently there but in America the customer is always right. When we were paying I told her can I at least have the noodles for free cuz the chicken was crapy she said no we dont give things away for free. I told her Im never coming back here. She seemed not to care at the least. She was a real Chinese bitch! I definitely wont be going back there. If you ask me there going broke because there serving up very shity customer service and there food is just a bunch a crap. All she would of had to do to make me a happy customer is give me the side of noodles for free which probably only cost them .50 cents. Its obvious thay could care less about there costomers. After left I had that shity after tast in my mouth for at least an hour from the crapy chicken. If you want a good place for Chinese food skip maxies slop and got to Pho Basile by Lowes there customer service is way better and there food will put maxies to shame. read more

Me and my Mom love going to Maxis friday or Saturday night 8 to 11 pm to sing, they have karaoke hosted by Clay and Bob and they are some great guys.

The staff is kind and u can get food untill 10 pm. Its good food also :) they also have some amazing regulars that get up and sing and one guy who plays the while people sing. I love this place. Best karaoke spot in town and when u get up to sing people cheer you on. Super positive vibes :) Good food and good people. . If u wanna have a karaoke themed bday party that will be so much fun this is the place to go read more

I think two stars is being generous. The food wasn't good. I ordered the #2 combination. I got a baby scoop of fried rice, a decent amount of sweet & sour pork. A very small portion of almond fried chicken. The chow mein had a lot of unidentifiable chunks of chicken, tons of water chestnuts and a lot of very strong flavored onions. I felt the onions permeated the dish. The meal was extremely disappointing overall. I won't be back. read more

Food is good...and if you dont mind your husband/boyfriend being grabbed on by sleazy overly friendly unprofessional young bartender...bar is fine to sit at, but restaurant section might be better choice. And if you do sit in the bar, if you are an attractive female and that certain bartender is there, she will flirt with your date and create a scene where she will get female kicked out so bartender can continue working on the male...shes after the big tips..power and control freak read more

Food was well below average and service was also lacking. When I was there, a Door Dasher was picking up an order and told me the food wasn't very good. I wish I had listened. My stomach is still upset from what I ate. Not recommended. read more

Very popular place but the good to me was not good enough to drive the 20 miles I drove. The Szechuan Beef was very hard to chew, so I didn't eat it. I will add that my friends love it so it's a matter of taste like everything is read more

Four stars for the vibe of the restaurant and the friendliness of the staff. Staff is welcoming and they engage with the customers. Fun restaurant to hang out with friends and have a few drinks or sing karaoke. I'm used to authentic Chinese food so the food is honestly too Americanized to me. The quality and authenticity of food could use some improvement. Regardless, there really aren't many options in Marysville for Chinese food. This restaurant has been around for a long time so it's always nice to support a local business. read more

So last year we done a large take out order. We noticed the food tasted different and we actually called the restaurant and they claimed nothing changed! Today I went there for lunch and once again I asked the waitress if they changed the oil and or has new owner? She stated both. Unfortunately I will not be returning there or referring there. It is very disappointing that the owners changed the oil as that is what gave it the great flavor RIP Maxi's. read more

Sometimes you just need to find that perfect little dive bar. Sarah the bartender was awesome! The restaurant is definitely older and an acquired taste as far as decor, but aren't most dives. Plenty of parking out front. Located in a strip mall. We sat in the lounge area, so not sure how the restaurant is. Food was fresh and hot, drinks were spot on. Everyone was very friendly. I'll be back. read more

I've been an occasional patron for over 30 years. The menu hasn't changed much but in the last year or two they've started using too much ginger which leaves an awful aftertaste. I'm sure some like it, but not me. read more

Always amazing, been coming here since I was a kid. Their new big noodle dish is really good. Had it for lunch two days in a row afterwards with the portion size. Service is always great and fast too. Owner is nice and has been working there for over forty years. I like how he visits with customers.​ read more

The food is very good, especially for the price very large portion comes with soup, then 3 different types of meat I got the almond chicken and the Szechuan chicken, and it came with fried prawns The sweet-and-sour sauce goes really well with the fried prawns. Also comes with fried rice. I would definitely come back. Service is great. Food was great and they have a nice bar with great ambiance. It's a great local restaurant where alot of the locals go. read more

Came in for dinner, ordered, about 5 minutes later a group of 5 came in and ordered, then I was asked again about my order. The group of 5 got 3 rounds of food when I asked where mine was, was told out was on the rail....5 minutes later I asked again and out why they got served before me, was told, " they are family, I don't know what to tell you". I'm a paying customer and a simple order, not 4 or 5 plates of food ... really??? Service SUCKS...jon!!! If there was less than one star.... that is what they would get!!! read more

This is one of the worst restaurants I have ever tried. Wanted something new and this was NOT the place to go. We ordered chicken chow mein, pork chow mein, orange chicken, cashew chicken and egg drop soup with a side of white rice. Let's start with the chow meins. They both are flavorless, the meat in both looks the EXACT SAME! Poor quality of food and flavor. Orange chicken was actually okay which is why this got one star. Flavor was okay, little gritty on the meat. Cashew chicken had the same issue that chow mein had, flavorless and bland. It's like the chicken was not seasoned or marinated, just boiled and served. Horrid. The last meal item we got was the egg drop soup and rice. Egg drop soup is one of my favorite things at restaurants but here it was anything but. Absolutely a terrible color of yellow and had weird additions in it that I couldn't tell what they are. The white rice was mushy and tasted like it was instant rice. And the fortune cookies tasted like corn flakes, with very bad "fortunes" half of them didn't make sense. I was not pleased, nor will I be coming back. read more

took over two hours just to get our food when and took over 30mins just for drinks would NOT RECOMMEND

My friends and I stopped in here for dinner and drinks before heading to the theater. Free parking can be found in the parking lot. Discover is an accepted form of payment. The lounge offers a few TVs to watch. Happy Hour consists of deep-fried American food. Disappointing. If I wanted American food I would have chosen an American restaurant. Be aware that Maxi's charges a split-plate charge of $1. Order wisely to avoid this foolish charge. My bestie and I shared a full carafe of Merlot for $15. The full carafe equals one bottle of wine, making it cheaper than actually ordering a bottle of wine. Our table ordered some Barbecued Pork (14 pieces) for $9.50. The pork was dry and flavorless to me. We also ordered Potstickers (qty 8) for $9: fried dumplings filled with ground pork and vegetables. Tasty. My bestie and I shared a cup of Egg Flower Soup for $2. The soup was served with crackers (odd) and tasted like Chicken Noodle soup. Unsatisfying. My bestie and I also shared the Szechuan Chicken for $13: fried chicken breast in a szechuan glaze, garnished with broccoli. Our dish was served with a side of white rice. We requested a 5* spice level and received a 1* spice level. Frustrating. This dish was flavorful but would have been better had we received the spice level we requested. Overall, the wait staff and the food are not impressive. Maxi's will not come to mind when I am craving Chinese in the future. read more

This review is probably long long overdue but like they say better late than never. Having just read a bunch of recent reviews from the past couple years and seeing the poor quality service and food that this restaurant is still dishing out I'm just amazed that they've managed to stay in business for the past 20+ years or so. I personally wrote this place off at least 15 years ago I think tried them a few times couple date nights a take out order or two and every time was just terrible food dirty restaurant and complete failure. Sadly what I remember most about this place besides the crappy food and terrible wait staff, was the stench of cigarettes that was inside the dining room because back then patrons could smoke in the lounge bar area that is inside this particular restaurant. I'm pretty sure state law has no more smoking allowed inside any bars anywhere so at least that problem is fixed. But 15 years later they're still dishing out terrible food and have far below average servers. Chinese food is so easy and simple to prepare properly given fresh ingredients and a knowledgeable chef/cook. Obviously this place has neither hence all the terrible reviews it gets on its nasty food. Add in the fact that it's a less desirable restaurant to work at so it doesn't draw the top tier servers because they know they're gonna make terrible tips working here because of the crappy food being served. It's a perpetual cycle and the customers are the big losers. It's a hard pass - Chinese takeout from the deli at your local grocery store is better than what this place dishes out. read more

We ordered take out and everything we ordered looked exactly the same and tasted extremely bland. The only edible item were the potstickers and they were average at best. We were so excited and then so so disappointed. read more

Against my better judgement I patronized this Sh** hole bc only place open. Owner came to our table & took our order. Never received our Soup. Order brought to the table totally wrong. Bbq Pork appetizer was dry & fishy, he brought another one out & it was the same so I asked for Prawn appetizer and they bring a plate of Swt & Sour Pork to the table and argued with us that its what we ordered Pork / Prawns hmm obvious difference. Entrees come to table and my Broccoli was raw, fried rice was clumpy & crispy from sitting under heat lamp. Never received our Soup. Then they brought someone else's order to our table. When all this was brought to their attention they insist we pay full price even though we only had 2 bites, No Soup and they offered to give us our Soup to go We left complete meal on the table and when I told them i would be leaving a Very Bad Review the response was " We been here long timeee and you Never come backkk. To prevent being arrested in response to their Very Poor relations i walked out and said I WILL NEVER RETURN HERE FOR I HAVE A BETTER KNOWLEDGE OF QUALITY FOOD AND GUEST SERVICE !!! I WILL NEVER RETURN NOR SUGGEST THIS DISGUSTING ESTABLISHMENT AND DISGRACEFUL OWNERS. Someone Please explain to me WHY THEIR STILL IN BUSINESS Long-time Hole in the wall that survives off patrons looking for a cheap disgusting meal, its obvious No One with any Class or knowledge of what good food is are the ONLY ONES TO GO HERE. I could've had a BEtter Meal from a Dumpster. DO NOT PATRONIZE THIS HOLE IN THE WALL !! ZERO STAR read more

Love the services and the food is amazing . I am so glad I found this place. Its prices are okay . You get a lot of food for you money

Fried rice was dry to the point I choked on it. Chicken tasted rancid (old grease?). Too salty and oily, the bag looked like it was in deep fryer along with food. Vomited within 30 minutes of eating, likely food poisoning. Stay clear or plan for painful night. read more

I ordered Mongolian beef and bbq pork. The beef was tough Af and pork came with sweet and sour sauceThe server was nice

This is a location located in a little strip mall. I was the only one who ordered from the full menu, party of five, and I had the best meal by far! The others all ordered the lunch specials and they were all passable creations of typical Chinese fast food. I ordered the walnut prawns. They were delicate as perfectly cooked. They tasted so fresh and delicious. To be perfect I'd use a tad less sugar but I wasn't complaining! read more

Thought we'd give this place a go. Horrible service and after an hour of waiting for our food we gave up. They had the audacity to charge us 15.00 dollars for 2 cokes and a cup of watered down hot and soup. I will not willingly go back there. It would have been nice if they at least apologized for the wait and brought appetizers or something.. do better folks. read more

Nice place to take your girlfriend after 9pm they have karaoke, and a real menu with fair prices, the lights are to dim to read the menu. P.S bring a flashlight so you will be able to read the menus. Country music with retired folks in the House after 9pm singing country lullabies atmosphere. Awesome mix Chinese food, fish and chips and country music. read more

This place should be at a 0 star. Terrible service, the server had dropped our appetizer. Then after putting our appetizer on the table we were starting to eat when there it was! GROSS as F#$% a LONG HAIR cooked into the food. F'n nasty! The waitresses comes back to the table I showed her and she says oh did you need a new order? WHAT!?REALLY!? She says I'll make sure your order won't have hair in it... looking at me like I was the one that did somthing wrong. She isn't say sorry l, or nothing.....Will not be going back. read more

Passionate owners, Rod and Frances, aim to please by providing an exceptional customer experience. They know your name, they know your dish, and they know your drink - highly recommended! read more

I like to support the local restaurants in my area, but I will never use this restaurant again. The chef's idea of bbq pork fried rice turned out to be some over cooked rice with a scrambled egg and a very little pork. Hello you just lost another customer, for every 1 customer you loose there will be 10 customers that won't trust you Good luck trying to stay in business in this economy read more

Service great, Food Great. Went on a wednesday around 5pm and all of the food we had was really good. Szechuan Chicken was so good, also the Honey walnut prawns...two of my favourites. Still the same as the old owners, new owners haven't changed anything...cooks and wait staff are still there and great. read more

New Owner. The old owner amazing. Not anymore. Twice been here after new ownership and after 45 minutes wait food questionable. The staff is amazing and someone needs to tell this new owner to get it together ! read more

Absolutely the best fried rice and Szechuan chicken north of Seattle! Fast friendly and open on mondays! read more

Garbage food. Rice was hard, General chicken was decent but would never eat there again.

On Friday July 16,2021 my wife and I tried this place because Good Taste where we always go are closed for summer vacation. We would have been better off going to panda express. We ordered sweet and sour chicken and the chicken was so soaked with oil, which tasted like old oil. Pork fried rice had no flavor.and veg .chow main which tasted disgusting. The egg rolls are excellent. My wife said that this was the worst Birthday dinner she has ever had. If you want good Chinese food go to GOOD TASTE formerly SIAGION GARDEN. read more

Not going to lie when I first moved to the area in Dec of 2020 we were putting in large orders because we have a big family... everything was good the food was all there. EVERYTIME. The one time I go in person they miss my plate. But the backstory to this is that the young lady at the register helped me choose my plate she suggested it.. so I get home hungry as hell only to see my plate is not there.. I call and the girl puts me on hold and I hear the damn owner telling her just tell her you forgot to write it down. side note I saw little mama write my plate on the ticket. When she suggested it. Nonetheless the owner is telling her verbatim what to say to me which is "tell her you forgot to write it and you didn't charge her and if she wants we can make it and charge her when she gets here" first of all F**k you for trying to scam money out of me a second time and secondly I wasn't driving 20 mins back there when I was originally on that side. Now you might ask why didn't I check before I left, welp being that I've purchase from them several times (5) before I didn't think I would have to worry. I know next time not to trust any facility and check my shi*. I'm super mad because of how the owner decided to handle this and for the young lady not being honest because she even remembered exactly who I was when I called. All in all I was out a plate of food and money. Needless to say I was beyond HANGRY.... Save yourself the time and money. FYI the quality of the food went down anyway since We last ate there in December anyway my husband no longer likes the orange chicken which he use to love read more

It's my first time there and their orange chicken better than Panda Express!!! Good service and I really like the bacon fried rice too:)

I really wanted to give Maxi's another chance, but the second time around was still a "bust". I ordered Egg Foo Young, Friend Rice and Salt and Pepper Pork. Fried rice was overcooked (tasted burnt) and the egg foo young was dry, again overcooked and the sauce was like paste. I added hot water to dilute the sauce, but it was just had the consistency of pudding. The pork was also dry with no sauce. It was battered like sweet and sour pork, but no sauce. I gave this review 2 stars for the hostess/server. In the two times I have ordered food to-go, she was always friendly. read more
