3 reviews for Max & Erma's Restaurants
I have been going to Max and Erma's most of my life. I figured the place out on my first trip. You get a basket of fries and a big beer and you order the giant garbage burger. It is an amazing experience. Skip all the tortilla strip soup, tex-mex enchilada beef tip guacamole eat-the-bowl salad stuff (okay I made that one up) and go with what made the place.
Their fries are excellent and are made to go with beer. Get the basket of fries. The garbage burger is amazing and cannot be replicated at home or anywhere else.
If you order this giant burger, fries and a beer you'll be happy. If you order anything else I don't know. The g-burger is so good I have never considered anything else. Don't listen to those garbage-shouldn't-be-in-the-name-of-food types. It's great. Memorable great.
We ate here last week, and were very impressed. I had a black bean veggie burger and their spicy tortilla soup with some peach tea, and it was excellent. My boyfriend ordered the herb halibut w/rice though, and it was also heavenly. Our waiter was friendly, and the atmosphere was casual with unique decor (think soapbox derby cars & old carnival signs to name a few examples).
Another really cool thing about this place is that you can order cookies for after your meal, and they'll bake them fresh for you while you're finishing up your food. You can take them to go or eat them there, and even order a glass of milk to with 'em. Very nice touch, and very very good food.
We don't live in OH, but I would definitely be a repeat customer if we did.
Avoid the tortilla soup - it is quite literally drinking a bowl of melted cheddar cheese. Perhaps thinned out the slightest bit with whole milk. Topped with a hearty fistfull of deep fried tortilla strips and barely a smidge of chicken to be found drowning under the bright orange gloop. Likely the most caloric soup I've ever consumed in my life.
Turkey club was standard at best. It wasn't bad, but it could have just as easily been made in 5 minutes at home. Decor was tacky and the sundae bar weirded me out. I doubt I'll be back. Unless it was, say, accompanied by a seven year old kid. I'm not in the habit of checking out children's menus, but the place definitely seemed family appropriate.
