A little off the beaten path but that allowed us to find on the street free parking. Service was elite but food was good not outstanding. The ricotta app was absolutely delicious and a fav for me

It started with a warm and welcoming server who genuinely seemed excited that it was our first visit. I loved the ambiance, just energetic and cool but in an approachable way. The menu is global (Asian, Italian, a little Latin) and interesting, I fe
What an incredible standout dinner.
There were a group of six of us girls so we got to try a lot of the menu. You can't go wrong with the French onion dip and everyone loved the chicken entrée. We had really great service and I would love to come back again.
The food is absolutely amazing.
We enjoyed each of our orders and the flavors are wonderful. We will definitely go back. The only complain I have is that you have to put in your full order at the onset and the food comes out incredibly fast. In 20 minutes we had all our food. For

I don't know why I was expecting a basic American fare when my friends invited me to maxwells trading, but wow I was wrong!! Their food could be better described as more of a cool, creative, Asian inspired spot. You can't skip the dips (mai
Wow, what a gem of a place.
They were closed for a private event but had the safe and a small bakery pop up open. The staff was so nice and kind. And the cafe menu had plenty of options for everyone. I would love to come back when their greenhouse and inside seating area is ope
Industrial vibes farrr out in West Loop.
Slow service but very good food. French onion dip: the bread was sooooo good. Something was a bit off on the dip imo but the bread slapped. Pear tortellini: YESSSS pasta was perfect and the sauce was insane. Japanese sweet potato: meh, didn'
Every dish is unique, small plates, easy to share.
Restaurant has great energy and ambiance is great. I love that the menu doesn't change to keep it consistent but couple of the dishes change based on the season and keep it exciting. The Japanese sweet potato is my favorite and I love that the T

Wow! Everything here was amazing! I came with a group of 8 people for a birthday dinner and it seemed like the perfect venue. The menu was family style with a large lazy Susan on the table to easily share dishes. We tried a variety of items but
The cocktails and food were great.
The portions were barely visible and the prices sky high.
Wonderful evening at Maxwells - beautiful space, great vibe
Wonderful evening at Maxwells - beautiful space, great vibe and excellent service. Dined with a large group so we were able to try a lot! cucumbers - nice dish great flavour but I didn't love the pairing with the silken tofu, french onion and wh
Busy vibrant place.
Food is meant to be shared and we ordered one or two dishes from each category. For drinks, recommend the Vesper. A mix of gin, vodka and lemon. Server fave us some great food recommendations. Give this place a try as you won't regret it.
Had a great meal at Maxwells.
Huge restaurant in the west loop, diverse menu, lots of good stuff. Service was friendly, drinks were good. Highlights of the night - suzuki tartare (great flavors, but seriously small portion), the chicory caesar (perfectly dressed, and a huge port

from the moment you walk into Maxwell's, whether it's a Wednesday or Saturday night, you're greeted with every seat filled in the restaurant and likely a line out the door of people patiently hoping to get a seat-- and that's for
Won’t be back!
The food was decent but we won’t be back. We made a 9:15 reservation and arrived on time. We thought we were in store for a pleasant evening. Apps were good. We ordered a few pricey bottles of wine. And then ate our meal. We were offered dessert (a
Overhyped
This place was recently featured amongst the country’s best new restaurants but I’m of the opinion that it isn’t deserved. Service was annoying food was bland & it isn’t cheap. We opted for the ricotta, salmon, basque cake & sweet pot
We love the food
I’ve dined at Maxwell’s Trading twice and absolutely love their Asian-inspired cuisine. The flavors are fresh, inventive, and consistently delightful. A must-visit for anyone looking to experience a unique culinary journey in Chicago!
Good food and vibe
We loved the Grilled Mushroom & Lettuce Wrap, Chicory Caesar, Loaf Lounge Marbled Rye, and the standout dessert: Basque Butter Cake. The Japanese Sweet Potato and the Hay & Straw were bland. The Negroni and Sazerac were OK but not strong en
Definitely go here!
AMAZING!! Food was original and really good. It is shared dishes. Service was really good and attentive. Everyone was friendly. Highly recommend if you want an awesome meal and great environment
Hits and misses
I was really looking forward to dinner here, given the buzz the restaurant has generated on Chicago's restaurant scene. I'd return, but the meal was full of hits and misses. Misses: --We were seated wwwwaaaaaayyyyy after our reservation t
Great new restaurant. Great service and vibe…food is great too.
We loved this place. Needed a place near the United Center for an early dinner and read about it in Eater Chicago. We went on the day of its 11th service, so everything was quite new. There isn’t even a sign out yet. But what a winner it is. B

AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with Maxwells Trading Chicago. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience
the user has and how many percent of their transactions resulted in them issuing a refund.
If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Maxwells Trading Chicago at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Maxwells Trading Chicago page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* FluffyStar64, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* FluffyStar64 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to FluffyStar64 for any questions Peter may have as FluffyStar64 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* FluffyStar64 now uses their connections at Maxwells Trading Chicago to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If FluffyStar64 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, FluffyStar64 receives the $200 reward which is credited to FluffyStar64's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Maxwells Trading Chicago!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
