It's a super sized deli and restaurant with an expansive menu of all the delicious food your grandmother used to serve you. Loud and busy, but everyone is happy and the waiters never stop.

“This place is excellent.”

This place is excellent! If you need your corned beef or pastrami fix this is the spot! Mom got the Reuben at potato pancake, Dad got the half corned beef half pastrami! Both were excellent!! Check this place out!

Exactly what you are most likely looking for if you searched for a “deli” or a “Jewish Deli” 🙂🙂🙂 From the Matzo Ball soup to the many excellent desserts in the bakery section, and so much in between!!! I’m going to go again! I have been three times, so far 👍🏼💜

“Just love this Bakery, Deli, and Restaurant.”

Just love this Bakery, Deli, and Restaurant. The food is more than plentiful for the fair price. Toni was a sweetheart to us and our daughter....patient as we worked through the menu to make selections, and attentive when we needed something. Our party enjoyed the Chicken Noodle Soup, Honey Turkey Sandwich, Door County Chicken Salad, and Chicken Gyro Wrap. The half soup and sandwich is more than enough for a meal with some to take home. We also enjoyed the fries (Regular, Sweet Potato, and Curley). All three were unique and you cannot go wrong with either selection. The Coleslaw is outstanding! Looking forward to our next visit.

“Stopped in for breakfast and so glad I did.”

Stopped in for breakfast and so glad I did! The omelet was perfect and the potatoes as well! Next time I'm in town I will definitely be back to do some shopping on the deli/bakery side.

“Never have we enjoyed blintzes so much.”

Never have we enjoyed blintzes so much. All of the breakfast items were delicious. Afterwards we loaded up on Jewish deli items and breads. Prices were reasonable and the quality of food was excellent.

“MAX AND BENNY'S is an excellent American deli with an East Coast bent.”

MAX AND BENNY'S is an excellent American deli with an East Coast bent. Noisy and joyful, this is a respectful tribute to New York City's Jewish gastronomic traditions. Service, except at the busiest times, is quick and efficient. The expansive menu offers a comprehensive selection of Jewish delicatessen, The excellent bakery's selection is both unique and delicious. The waiters are old school. They know the menu and willingly offer helpful suggestions. When stepping from the cafe into the "Take-A-way" deli, take a few moments to view the clever and unique cookie jar collection. Note: We find our way to Max and Benny's each time we visit Chicago's northwest suburbs. Our family loves the place. Being a vegan, I observe their joy as they devour bowls of chicken soup (with matzo balls) and corned beef sandwiches. My fresh-baked rye bread, vegetable sandwich is large and delicious. 0f course, carry-outs are offered. (How can you stop at a deli and not bring something home?) Lots of free parking. Everything is ADA compatible.

“Great food and obviously well loved by many.”

Great food and obviously well loved by many. I was there at lunch mid-week and the place was packed with a wait. Was it worth it! I had the Max and Benny's Ruben. It was piled high with tender, fall apart corned beef and came with coleslaw and pickle on the side. I took a beef brisket dinner to to go and it was so much food I had dinner for 2 nights. Tender beef, latkes, rolls and veggies. Theres also a separate deli where you can get deli meats, sandwiches, salads and baked goods.

A great deli and restaurant. The Rueben is my favorite sandwich, the soups are all incredible—just depends on your mood. This trip I picked up bagels to go. #deli #matzahballsoup
