Max & Louie's brings a New York diner format to San Antonio, with a second location in Cibolo. The menu covers breakfast, lunch and dinner, kids' plates, and dessert, alongside a bar and beverage program that includes egg creams and boozy shakes, plus dedicated gluten-free and vegan options.
Reviewers point to french toast, challah bread, home fries, and pancakes on the breakfast side, with grilled cheese, meatloaf, and cabbage rolls among the lunch and dinner staples. The Reuben and Rachel are served as a sibling sandwich pairing, and house-made bagels are part of the bread program.
The restaurant operates under what it calls "Fanatical Hospitality," a stated commitment to top-shelf ingredients across its breads, cheeses, meats, and pickles, and to holding portion sizes steady as costs rise — a line owner Drew and the team repeat directly to customers. San Antonio Current named Max & Louie's among the city's best in 2025.
