I ordered the Sharing Fondue for 4 people. The quantity was sufficient and the desserts were really tasty except for the crepe which were average. They give you a fire grill to heat marshmallows and it's a nice presentation overall. Two things that I did not like about the food were the crepes and the quantity of liquid milk chocolate in the fondue. Another point that should be highlighted is that I did not see an option to tip lesser/greater than the recommended amount. This seemed unfair. Overall, it's a nice and moderately priced place good for a cozy vibe

Hot chocolate some of the best ive ever had on par with mine! Onion rings were really good and the chocolate range was really just chipolte ranch which was probably good. The burger and mac and cheese were just fine probably best to just get sweets here. Waffle was amazing

We stopped in on Black Friday right when they opened and were greeted warmly by the staff. The Tiramisu hot chocolate was delightful! My husband had the cinnamon roll hot Chocolate and it was better than the tiramisu (in my opinion). We also had the churros fondue- yummy!

My husband and I visited Max Brenner today on Christmas Day and we had a great time. I had his Chocolate Martini and the Oreo Crepe and he had the Cheesecake and White Russian Vodka. Everything was delicious. Our waitress Angela was very patient and courteous. The place was full, but the atmosphere was good. I recommend that you make your reservation, to ensure your stay.

Made reservation but still needed to wait a good half hour on Dec 16th. December doesn't seem to be the best month for a visit. Ordered a lot since we don't go to Max Brenner often. Maybe once every 5 years? Loved it every time 😌 such a fun place to eat if you love desserts. Got two milkshakes - cookieshake and 80's milkshake. I don't think they finished it. It was good but it's just a lot and heavy with everything else. Food was great 🤪 the tacos ripped but tasted good. Dipping for fondue was the best part 🙂‍↕️ will go again in maybe another 5 years 😁

Wow the quinoa farm salad was legit one of the best salads I’ve ever had. The citrusy dressing wasn’t overpowering and super smooth. Dark hot chocolate was epic as well. Very grateful for the service from Mansoor and the vibes here. She helped ensure that we knew what the best things to order on the menu were. Appreciated the positive energy very much! Def a super solid warm pick me up after the blizzard. Def worth a stop in here while ur in union square! Namaste! 🙏🏼

I love this place! We traveled a distance to get there. When we got there the host said 40 mins because we had no reservations but a waitress came and said she could sit us in 3 mins and we were so appreciative of that! It’s clean, our waiter was amazing, he was busy but he did his best to check on us and accommodate what we needed. The food was delicious especially the Alfredo pasta my friend got and the fruit smoothie was delicious (a little too sweet though) The crepe was crunchy, sweet but good! This was my 2nd time coming so you know I’ll be back!

Great dessert spot, and it does get crowded. Luckily, they take reservations which is a good idea to get. Also, it's a pretty extensive menu from regular entrees to an array of desserts.\n\nAfter…

What a chocolate fix pre theater this is the place! Great hot chocolate! Try the praline and milk chocolate squares. The broadway location.

I’m not usually a hot chocolate drinker, but I was so cold and had heard good things about Max Brenner chocolate, so I gave it a try. And it was sooooo good! Most hot chocolates are cloyingly sweet…

Loved everything about the place- right from the amazing food/drinks to the friendly service staff. Highly recommend the hot chocolate and churros with white chocolate dip.

I recently visited Max Brenner in New York and had a mixed experience. Food: The chocolate creations are definitely a highlight! I tried the signature chocolate pizza, which was delicious and loaded with toppings. However, some of the savory dishes fell a bit short and lacked seasoning. Service: The service was okay. While the staff was friendly, it took a while for our food to arrive, and our server seemed a bit overwhelmed. Atmosphere: The atmosphere is fun and vibrant, with a quirky decor that makes it a unique place to dine. However, it was quite crowded, making it hard to have a comfortable conversation. Overall, while the chocolate desserts are worth a visit, I think there’s room for improvement in the savory options and service. I might return for the sweets, but I would hope for a better overall experience next time.

Came to represent the home country. The food was great but the service wasn’t. We waited long until they came to take our order, then when it arrived (pizza + hot cocoa + pumpkin espresso martini) we asked for chili for the pizza and a little spoon for the hot cocoa. The spoon never arrived, although we asked for it multiple times, and we had to ask for the chili 3 times. The waiters don’t come to you even if you try to call them, so until the chili arrived the pizza wasn’t hot anymore…The food was a little expensive. Probably won’t be coming back. Service in TLV is better

This is sweet tooth’s paradise because damn lol, service here is decent and our server did the best he could but yall need to hire more servers, the cheese steak was ok and the chicken salad was good but the desserts were ok.

I’ve been coming here for 10+ years. Good dessert, got the European fondue. It was a bit chocolate overload, but good overall.

Went here for desserts and was left a bit disappointed. Quality has gone down over the years but still giving 4 stars because staff was pretty helpful and accommodating. As usual, street parking is very difficult to find unless you pay expensive parking garages.

We came here for the Italian hot chocolate, and I really liked it! It was so thick and decadent. The Italian pasta with added chicken was surprisingly tasty for a place known for their chocolate. I was not a fan of the spicy rigatoni vodka, the vodka flavour was extremely overpowering. Their food presentation left something to be desired - the smears of sauce on the edges of the plate did not look appetizing.

The thick hot chocolate is not as thick as it seems in videos online but the flavor is a solid 8/10! We got the thick hit chocolate and it was good. The hazelnut strawberry crepe was 10/10 and I recommend it! Giving a low service review because they forgot to give us a fork with the crepe then I asked 2 other employees for a spoon who walked past us multiple times and forgot. Our server was great once I asked him he immediately brought it but this was 10 mins after I first asked for one…

A coworker & I decided to go back to Max Brenner’s for lunch today. Though we almost walked past it. The building is getting a bit of a facelift & is covered by green wooden panels. We split the Mac & cheese as an appetizer & instead of getting our usual burgers we opted to try something new. I went with the waffle cheese steak with waffle fries which was delicious. My coworker went with the chicken schnitzel which unfortunately he ended up not eating more than three bites. He said it was as dry as the desert. When our waiter asked if he needed a box to go he declined & said he didn’t like the dish. The restaurant kindly removed it from our bill even though he said he would pay for it. I had a crème brûlée martini which was amazing. Unfortunately I was too full for dessert. Perhaps next time I’ll skip the appetizer or simply go for dessert one day. If you like chocolate this place is for you.

The atmosphere has not change and the service is still great but the food was not edible. I order the lemon herb chicken and the meal was overpower by the lemon flavor. It did not feel fresh and I was not able to enjoy it. My wife ate a spicy rigatoni and it was good flavor but felt a bit dried. Overall we were a big fan of max brenner but it has become hard to enjoy certain dishes.

Walk in Friday night ~9:45p for only dessert, practically no one there (~4-5 tables filled). Time to water ~4 minutes. Ordered Baked Oreo Cookie and Banana Hazelnut Crepe. Sweet, would not recommend solo devouring, must share between 2-4 people/plate imo. Quiet ambiance, easy to talk to. Very very dim, I can appreciate the decour and vibes, more fitting for date than group hangout, could just be me tho 🤷‍♂️ Staff is nice.

This place feels a little outdated, like it was probably a big hit 10+ years ago. But, they do have a rather large menu, to my surprise anyway, that features a lot more than chocolate. Someone nearby…

Years ago this used to be my favorite place but recently quality went down. The area is not as clean, especially the bathrooms. We came here for their dessert which is what they are known for but the crepe was not fresh, it tasted like one of those premade crepes you heat up and was a bit burnt. The chocolate syrup became hard right away, and was way too much of it, maybe to try to cover up the burnt crepe but it was wayyyy to sweet could not even eat it without chugging 3 glasses of water. money wasted, go somewhere else

Visiting Max Brenner is a holiday ritual and we were so excited to be here. Food was not the usual.. sub par and did not feel the best after dinner. Service was terrible. Waited really long for our food and water to be served. Worst ambience and place looks so messy. Ordered water refills and since we paid our check no one cared to refill our water. Also the bathrooms were so untidy and unhygienic. For the price customers pay atleast maintain good quality. This is just unethical, not the service anyone deserves and we are so disappointed :(

If I could give them 0 stars I would. It was a complete waste of money, extremely disappointing. We had a reservation for 7pm and we still had to make a line to check in with the hostess. Once we make it to the front of the line, the hostess was very rude and accused us of skipping the line. We got seated 1 hour after our reservation time! The food was one of the worst I’ve ever had, McDonald’s dinner would have been better and cheaper! This restaurant used to be good but not anymore. We thought the best part would be the dessert but it was completely disappointing. We ordered the chocolate fondue for $40 and they barely gave us any chocolate, the strawberries were spoiled and mushy, the waffle was not toasted either. And the dessert took 45 mins to get there. Overall it was a terrible experience.
