Maxie's opened its doors on May 5th, 2007, serving Southern Inspired “from-scratch” cooking. Maxie’s is located in the old Gerry O’Brien’s Meat Market at the corner of 68th Street and Fairview Avenue, immediately north of Interstate 94 and the 68thStreet off-Ramp. Maxie’s offers full-service bars and dining on two levels.

Maxie’s southern inspiration includes the “Low Country” cooking of the Carolinas, Creole and Cajun cooking of Louisiana, traditional slow-smoked southern barbeque, and southern comfort cooking of all kinds. We feature a raw bar serving fresh oysters, clams and shrimp flown in 5 days a week from the some of the best fish purveyors on the east coast. Our bar offers a hand picked selection of quality wines, micro-brewed and imported beers, and top-shelf liquors. Maxie’s opens 7 days a week at 4pm featuring Milwaukee’s best Happy Hour and only Oyster Happy Hour!

Take-out food and drink are available at all times with reserved to-go parking immediately adjacent to the building. Maxie’s has a second parking lot directly across 68th Street to accommodate our guests. Additional on-street parking is available in our surrounding neighborhood.

Dinner is served late with the kitchen staying open until 10 p.m. Monday through Thursday, until 11 p.m. Friday and Saturday, and until 9 p.m. on Sun. Because of our dedication to great food, beverages, and a comfortable atmosphere for all, Maxie’s is a smoke free restaurant.

Maxie’s is the second generation of a restaurant concept that has flourished in Ithaca, New York since 1999; Maxie’s Supper Club and Oyster Bar. We are neither a franchise nor any kind of corporate operation. We are independently owned and operated with love. Our goal is to provide hospitality, vision and a slice of community everyday. We look forward to serving you and getting to know you in the months and years to come. Cheers!
