"I hadn't visited this location in over twelve years, but I used to be a big fan of Max's Opera Cafe in San Francisco. The wait staff was exceptional, contributing to a wonderful birthday dinner for my mother, complete with a complimentary birthday sundae. The Turkey Club sandwich was tasty, and the salad was good as well. However, the shrimp in the shrimp cocktail lacked flavor and appeared off-color, and the cocktail sauce tasted like it came from a jar. But hey, nothing's perfect! The live jazz on a Monday evening was fantastic, and the atmosphere in the bar/restaurant was lively and enjoyable. I plan to return for a simple sandwich dinner with another alcohol-free beer and to enjoy the jazz again."
