Over priced dry pizza. Ordered a pizza expecting the dough to be freshly baked when topped with the over priced toppings. Beyond words to explain how disappointed we were with this pizza. This was for a special occasion and wow what a mistake. They barely put any cheese and saying that is more generous than I would like to be. It was so pathetic, it is pizza and to literally have no cheese on several of the slices is ridiculous and what is there does not cover the entire slice. They take a pre baked dough slab and sauce it and “top” it and back in the oven to get that extra dry experience. Being baked and then baked again makes it so dry and over crispy it cuts your mouth to shreds and essentially chokes you. This is the most disappointing pizza I have ever had. We put our trust and confidence in this place and it was not deserved. Always treated nice but sorry for thinking of getting a whole pizza from here. Nope I won’t make that pricey mistake again.

Get family owned restaurant. Good eats and treats you can’t go wrong. If you love authentic old world Italian cuisine. Then you have to give these folks a try!

First time ordering pizza. Dough was terrible!
Dry and lifeless. Flat and hard, definitely no yeast used. So sad . Was expecting finally a decent pizza place , as a go to, only disappointment.
Due to their rating, must be pasta (hard to ruin) that may warrant a high rating. The sauce was decent, but if u want to pick up a pizza, save your money, buy frozen.

Very, very disappointed… tried it for the first time today 11-24-2025. Dry, overcooked pizza. This pizza shop was highly recommended to me. I have had better frozen pizza. They have been in business for many years, not sure why my pizza was so horrible… I’ll try anything once, just did not think it was going to be that bad. P

My favorite pizza on the East side!!! I remember the store in Euclid on E155th. We used to go in there as kids and pay for the slices that were In the window! Mmmmmm! I remember the smell of the little shop! Great memories! I came to your new location In Mentor and the pizza was still so delicious! Great deserts, too!

My husband and I stopped at Maxim’s for the first time and we had a wonderful lunch. The customer service was excellent. They were all so friendly. Food was very good. We each started with one slice of pizza which was very delicious. Then I had their Italian Sausage sub and my husband got their Italian sub. They were so big that we couldn’t finish them and we both took half home. There were so many other items on their menu that we want to try and we can’t wait to go back.
Highly recommend Maxim!
