Burt and max has a new owner. The manager was fired. Menu has changed. Choices for lunch very limited. All the great choices from the past are gone.
My hamburger was very greasy
Pizza just adequate salad for $18 was just some lettuce and carrots.
On the plus side our server was excellent
I will not return to this restaurant until the new owner can go back to when the old ways when food was better and choices were delicious.
Very disappointed.
I’ve lived in Delray for 18 years. Burt and Max was a constant.
I hope the new owner pays attention and sees the need for change.

We have been a regular customer at Burt& Max's Restaurant in the Delray Marketplace for over 8 years. We have dinner there every 2 or 3 weeks, and we are not snowbirds, we live here year round. We love the restaurant, the food used to be really good, really consistent. Our favorite is the Rainbow Trout. The way it is prepared changes from time to time, and we always love it. We were there last night, and were very sad to see it has been removed from the menu and replaced with the "catch of the day". So we tried it, and were very disapponted. The fish was undercooked and tasteless, and the portion was very small. It is our understanding from speaking with the staff that the restaurant has new owners. The staff also said the Rainbow Trout has always been a big favorite. My advice to the new owners is "IF IT AIN'T BROKE DON'T FIX IT!" Why, oh why would you remove a best-selling dish from the menu??? I don't know if we will continue to dine there, we didn't see anything else on the menu that appeals to us.
Take out order and everything was great and delicious! Friends of mine gave me a gift card and i celebrated my 77th birthday in July!
Always an enjoyable and high-quality service while seated at the bar with Michael and Katlyn at the helm! Our thanks to them both for exceptional service and personalized care that keeps my wife and I as frequent patrons. Excellent experience and bar tending. We thank you both. Our best regards, Jason and Lidia

Ate Lunch today with a girlfriend. She ordered grilled cheese with bacon & tomato. Clearly, it appeared there was only ONE slice of American cheese on the sandwich, hardly visible when it was served. However, it appeared to be mostly a tomato sandwich! She mentioned this to the waitress, who said she’d bring it up to the manager. No manager came to our table to anologize. Also, in the past, there was a choice of what type of bread. She was not asked - the grilled cheese sandwich came with multi grain, not her choice. My order of chicken wrap was quite small, compared to the past! The tomato soup was not hot enough. to make matters worse, the waitress reversed the receipts and put her tip on my bill and my tip on my friend’s. Happy today …..no!!
