She took our order and we had our food within a short time. I ordered the Eggs-celent breakfast with scrambled eggs, bacon, extra crispy hashbrowns and a biscuit. My husband ordered the eggs-celent breakfast with scrambled eggs, smoked sausage (which we specifically asked if it was spicy), home fries and a pancake. Then things took a turn. Our orders were mixed up...The order came out with the sausage on the hash-browns and the "bacon" and biscuit on the home fries. Not a big deal except the "bacon" was beyond burnt and was inedible. If I were a server I could not have served that to anyone. We swapped out ingredients so we each had what we ordered. The hashbrowns were extra crispy which was appreciated. Eggs were scrambled. The sausage looked great-but was spicy. Perhaps he got the chorizo instead of the smoked sausage. But who knows since the server did not return to the table. The pancake was good and the eggs were ok. The home fries and the hashbrowns both had some sort of funky seasoning on them but were cooked to our liking. We like to support local but we will think twice before returning here.

For my dinner, I ordered the Lobster & Crawfish Pot Pie. Talk about heavenly. The lobster veloute' tasted sweet and savory. The pot pie came with chopped potatoes, crawfish, pieces of fish, sweet corn, carrots and celery. The pot pie came with an arugula side salad with some cheese. I felt so honored to have eaten this pot pie. The creole buttery puff tasted terrific. Joseph ordered the rib eye. The ribs came with a side of risotto and molasses baked beans. He said he liked the food. Andrew our server did a fantastic job of making us feel welcomed. He got an A+ for service and communicated to us about the status of our order. Talk about being serviceable, near the back, customers could go to the bar. While in Ithaca, come to Creola Southern Steakhouse. Bring friends, family, or a date.

Good authentic Cajun!…read more With so much to choose from in Ithaca NY, why would visitors look into a Cajun restaurant? Because we've found that this town is a foodie paradise, we love catfish, and we love love blackened catfish. We had Maxie's blackened catfish in a flavorful spicy deep-pink Creole sauce, with maple-braised (!) collard greens, black beans and rice. They were not fooling around. They know their true Cajun seasoning. The oysters at the next table looked great, too, but we had missed the happy hour special. Of course we added an appetizer of fried green tomatoes with a bright somewhat-spicy New Orleans version of remoulade. Any they didn't shortcut the sazerac either: they rinsed the glass with Pernod, and finished it with authentic Peychaud's bitters. Wonderful.

My husband and I had dinner at Maxie's Supper Club & Oyster Bar last week, and we had a great time…read more Maxie's in a little bit of New Orleans in Ithaca, and it really excels at that. From the building and decor, to the drinks and decor, NOLA is everywhere on the menu and in the restaurant. We started with a State Street Hurricane (dark and light rum, passionfruit, and lime) and a Spicy Margarita, which were both great. We had a half dozen of both of their oyster selections (Malpeque from PEI and Spindrift from MA), which they serve with freshly shaved horseradish (a nice touch). Then we shared a Caesar salad, their fish fry, and their special of the night - pan-seared arctic char (with a creamy tomato sauce with capers, cheesy grits, and garlicy spinach). Everything was great. As usual, our eyes were bigger than our stomachs, and we couldn't eat everything we ordered. But the food was so good we ate most of our leftovers the next day for breakfast. The service was very good, and the vibes are great - it's comfortable, casual, and fun. We had a fun meal and some great food. I'd happily return.
