Our first time to Max. Excellent experience. Service was good. Hostess aria was very welcoming and nice. We had apps and dessert. We chose fondue for dessert. It came with marshmallow burner. It was fun and something different.

The Ho Ho Kus Inn is a neighborhood gem -- food is very good, it's got a nice atmosphere, and the service is professional, but friendly. It's nice to have a restaurant like this -- with a liquor license -- in the center of town. The manager was on site and working hard to make sure things went smoothly on the busy night we ate there.

Ordered the spinach dip with the cheesy lavosh (always our favorite) Scallops and french dip sandwich. Both were great. We went for the holidays and ordered some of the seasonal drinks which were not as great as the food but overall was a good time!
