Maxwell's is another restaurant that dosen't look like much on the outside, but is a very nice place. We had to wait a while to get a table, but it ended up being well worth it. The menu is extensive, with fine seafood dishes like oysters Rockefeller or Beinville and fresh-caught fish, tender veal, thick cut steaks, prime rib, and a variety of chicken entrees. I chose the Veal Oscar, which was wonderful. The veal medallions were fork-tender, topped with fresh asparagus, generous chunks of crab, and a light Bernaise sauce. Rice, steamed vegetables, and fresh baked rolls came with the meal, nicely rounding it out. There was a soup and salad bar with loads of options, but I opted for the Caesar salad instead. The service was good, but the restaurant was busy and so it seemed like they could have used a little more help.
Maxwell's proved to have wonderful fine dining at a price that was much easier to swallow than the restaurants at the Vicksburg area casinos.
We just were through Vicksburg on July 3,2008 and this restaurant has been torn down. What a shame!
