Ordered salmon and I think they gave me some other fish that was filled with BONES. Could hardly chew it....vegetables weren't seasoned and sauces were...questionable. But I have no complaints about the service as the hostess was really nice and knowledgeable about the menu read more

If I could leave no stars I would but I guess I could leave 1 star since my kids food was decent. My family and I came in from out of town and my husband was wanting some seafood so we ended up here based off reviews from a different app and we ended up regretting every bit of it. We walked in and were seated almost immediately which I give them that but our waitress seemed like she was inconvenienced when asked to refill my sons water which was empty for a while, he literally had already finished his food by the time she even came around and it wasn't even to check on us it was after I finally saw her after being gone for a while. I got the shrimp tacos and it wasn't anything to brag about, they weren't even seasoned. My husband got the grilled salmon and it wasn't good, it was grilled so much that it looked dry and pathetic. Definitely not worth ever coming back! I would recommend finding another place to eat at. read more

On a seafood whim, headed home from airport, and came across this little gem online! We almost second guessed ourselves when we arrived as the location has "hole in the wall" kinda vibe and the interior is clearly Latin origin which had us thinking "Mexican food with a few seafood items" but we were pleasantly surprised when we opened the menu! My son's fried shrimp and fish platter was clearly fresh (not frozen) and the mariscada was Amazing! So full of seafood - almost a whole crab, several shrimp, mussels, fish and calamari! The rice served with both our meals was delicious! Service was prompt and attentive - drinks filled and checked on us often enough without being annoying. Don't be put off by location, go inside and enjoy! **Did I mention the Mariachi band that played throughout and the bar in the back! read more

I found out about maxis seafood when a relative told me about it, and I've past this place thousands of times going north and south on hwy 59 but not anymore I will pass up if I'm in the mood for seafood. This probably my favorite seafood place to eat at. They have very good lunch specials till 4pm. And have gone a few times for lunch and the portion size is really good and filling. On thenDinner portion is big and you can eat for two on one plate but the prices for the dinner menu is price well enough for everyone at the table to get their own meal. Some of my favorite menu items are the seafood soup which is really good portion of fish, shrimp, crab with vegetables and it's a bit spicy but everything blends well. I also like the fried shrimp and garlic shrimp and the shrimp are large so that's a plus. I've also tried the octopus and they cook it to perfection very delicious... besides the seafood you have to have their fried rice is to die for there is something about the rice that is you can't stop eating it and you keep wanting to go back for more, the rice is like a Peruvian style type of fried it's a must try. Very nice waitresses and sometimes they have live music being played and I believe they have karaoke on some nights. Maxis is my seafood spot at moment check them out! read more

Mid as far as taste felt like a Golden seafood knock off in my opinion... the michelada was average the shrimp was small..

You can't go wrong if you like seafood coming this place. I like sitting at the bar. It's like a discotheque. They have good service I always have a cold beer. read more

Bfs parents took me out to this place. The place was packed for good reason. There was a bit of a line but it shortened very quickly. I appreciated the authenticity of the culture and food. read more

AVOID THIS PLACE. My family and I have been coming here since this place opened. We haven't been to restaurants since COVID, but do order takeout from time to time. We were initially disappointed when we called in to place an order, and couldn't get through to anyone. Still, we decided to make the drive and order to-go. However, that was a HUGE mistake. I ordered 2 LBS of crawfish, and received only half of my order. The crawfish was terrible, tasted old and was unacceptable they threw in raw corn/potatoes to up the weight of the order. No way to call in and speak to anyone as their phone line does not work. Terrible service, and we will never be back. I can't stand a restaurant that thinks it's OK to steal from their customers. Do better Maxis. read more

I have driven past by this establishment multiple times and today I wanted to give it a try. Ordered "Beef Lomein " And it Rung up as Beef pasta with Sparagus And I asked is this the same lomein? Lady at the front who took my order confirmed. The lunch menus said $7.99 11am-3pm It's 1:04 and it was a total of $14.02 The total wasn't the bad part. The plate it's self is a complete disappointment To-Go wait time was 10 min totally good for a walk in but my lunch was horrible it has about 10 pieces of weird meat and 10lbs of pasta. And it came with squished garlic bread ... would not recommend. read more

Bad service, waitress mixed up our order twice in a row. Chicarrón Catan tastes like Chinese food (no offense). Michelada was horrible. Sorry but this place is a no go. read more

The food was good for the price. The waitress was extremely polite, though she was taking a long time towards the end. Despite that I would go back with my family. read more

Maxis Seafood and Oyster Bar - Shrimp Wrapped bacon with veggies rice and tartar sauce - Bars Near Me - Houston, Texas

Their cocktail sauce is runny like if they water it down (and this is a seafood place)! Apparently there is only one guy who knows how to make salsa verde and he wasn't there. So they don't serve green sauce when he's not there. This is Inconsistent, teach your waiters and cooks how to prepare it properly. That's no excuse for a Latin seafood grill. People go to eat seafood with Latin flavor. You've got to Learn to Have your cocktail sauce and salsa verde on point and present if you going to be a Latin seafood restaurant. It's the least you can do! read more

This service sucks it's super slow and they act like some Rookie ass waitress they need better management to run the place food is ok and can be pretty good at atienda but they kill the vibe with the service they have to offer read more

Showed up a hour before closing time and the waitress said they where close ... guess this business is just there for decoration purposes because apparently the employees don't want to work. read more

The waitress refused to put a mask on while serving people when we asked about her mask she said she didn't need it . Very unprofessional and a health risk to others we asked for another waitress and she had a mask on everyone one of the staff had a mask except her . Food was amazing and service from the other waitress was above and beyond only complaint is the waitress refusing to wear a mask read more

Great for take out. One of those places that you can try everything on the menu. The Maxis Special Rice has octopus! and I just love it. The Fish Soup was delicious, especially if you add some rice and give it time to cool. read more

If you like seafood soup you would love their Mariscada loaded with seafood & veggies and the soup itself is so delicious you wouldn't have it any other way or anywhere else The Best Seafood soup in Houston trust me I've tried seafood soup all over this is by far the best!! Don't take my word for it go try it for yourself. The Maxi's special rice is awesome too!! The restaurant scene is Beautifully decorated,clean and friendly atmosphere with perfect lighting for a nice dinner night out! I would give them a five star but I haven't tried the bar yet!! read more

been patronizing this establishment for 5 months. It has a awesome set up. Food is descent. but waitresses in the bar area seem to have a lot to talk about.. and get upset when customers ask for service. and when you talk to manager he sides with the poor service. they have selected customer tolerancw. managemen needs to be tuned up on customer service. read more

Aperently they don't split checks period. So if your coming here and don't have just 1 person paying for it all do not come because they will not split any checks. Not coming back because of that. read more

Price gouging at its finest. 9.95 for one shot of segrams7. Charged me 14.95 for seveche when it clearly says 10.95 on the menu. No help when called. Zero stars. We spent 150.00$ read more

Very good crawfish! I recommend this place! Drinks are cheap and very strong. I recommend this place

I've never been to a place that sells expired beer! Yes, it was best before 2019! I've been plenty of times before and have never had issues. I love their caldo and boiled shrimp. Not sure what happened last night to their service or food. read more

Mediocre seafood and service. Who burns crab legs and serves them like that ? Seafood doesn't look fresh or clean yuck! Stuffed crabs and fried shrimp literally tasted like freezer burn and old oil, soup was pretty bland. Most of the food was left untouched and we didn't care to take it to go. Side of fries and plain rice were ok. If you know about good seafood/Mexican seafood go somewhere else. read more

Ordered a marisco caldo and I was horrified when I saw the shrimp. They do not clean their food and it's not like it was just 1 oohhh no it was all of them. Never eating at this place again. read more

Had lunch with my husband here yesterday for Father's Day. The food is really good and the ambiance is clean and comfortable but unfortunately the service we had by the bartender was simply unacceptable..she seemed bothered by our presence like if we had done something to annoy her.. she wasn't checking on us even though we sat at the bar to eat our food. We asked for water & tarter sauce she brought us napkins even tho I was speaking Spanish. We asked for to go boxes she brought us one to go box. We asked for the tab she turned around and left and didn't come back we had to ask the other bartender or bar back to give us our check. Ultimately we walked to the hostess and asked her for a bag to place our plates in and she looked bothered as well but she did provide what was needed I'm not sure if it's because they hate their job or what's the problem.. I've never been there and I don't plan on returning for awhile til maybe they change staff.. the next time i want mariscos I'll just order to go.. Even though that was a bad experience I will give it a 3 stars because the food is EXCELLENT.!!!! read more

Their crawfish is great but when you order to go they RIP you off on the pounds be careful!! They would get a 5 star if they would give you what you pay for.. again their Crawfish is great. read more

Will never go back!!! Food was not horrible but was not great either. Or maybe it was just that I could not enjoy my food because of how horrible my husband and I were treated by bartender. We asked if we could get a patio table. We were told no by girl at the bar, she turned her head, would not acknowledge us and pretended as if she didn't understand english. So I asked to speak to manager. Manager was nice and ended up being our waiter for the afternoon. We definitely appreciated his service but I will never ever return. read more

Went here after a coworker told us how good the shrimp is- so I ordered the fried fish, shrimp, oyster plate with fries and fried rice. All the fried food was overlooked. Oysters very small and mostly breading, which is a thick breading... shrimp seemed to be smashed inside thick breading to make them appear larger. The fish was okay- only because it was thick so not as dried out as shrimp and oysters. Fried rice ok- best part of meal was the French fries , which were better than most. Won't go back. read more

They have good Seafood but they play the music too loud you cannot carry a conversation and they need to higher English-speaking waitresses.

My husband and I gave this place a try because we was in the area and wanted seafood. Its more of a Mexican restaurant that sells seafood. Not really a seafood place. We ordered 2 dinners and the maxis grilled oysters. The dinners was ok not good or great. The oysters started out amazing until we found a bug in one. CAN YOU BELIEVE THEY DIDNT WANT TO TAKE OFF THE CHARGE!!! Because we found a bug in them. THEY SAID WELL WE WILL CHARGE FOR THE THREE YOU ATE... Are you kidding me. We was disgusted. Packed up the 2 dinners, paid and left. No manager was on site and the lady at the register said the cook told her she couldn't take off the charge. We will not be back. I gave 1 star because the lady at the register seemed pleasant and also baffled we had a bug in our food that three employees saw and we was charged. read more

This seafood place is amazing and I love going there with my family whenever we get the chance. The service can be slow when packed but the prices are great and affordable. The food is also amazing and the menu is clean and easy to read. The owners are so nice too! They once let me and my brother go see the kitchen! I would recommend "pasta marinera". Its an amazing plate with pasta, and it has crab, shrimp, oyster, octopus and veggies! It's a little spicy but AMAZING. Also did I mention it was affordable ? (I know I did) I always come whenever I have the chance. read more

Michelada's are great! Also had the shrimp soup I would recommend along with the fried tilapia.
