Created on the South Side of Chicago around what used to be the Stockyards, the classic Chicago Italian Beef Sandwich is a unique variation on the French Dip. It is available in hundreds of local spots around the city and rarely found beyond its vicinity…. until now with the arrival of Maxies Grill in Royal Palm Place, right in the heart of downtown Boca Raton!
So... you're a hot dog lover? Fear not ! Maxies has special for you! A Chicago Style Hot Dog is more than just a regular Hot Dog. It’s an incrdible taste sensation with the perfect blend of toppings. It's a steamed, all beef hot dog topped with yellow mustard, delicious green relish, onions, tomato wedges, pickle spear or slice, sport peppers and a dash of celery salt served in the all-important steamed poppy seed bun. It is never boiled, but slowly simmered using steam heat. Some people love to have these dogs grilled (at Maxies they call it “char”) before they are placed in the bun.
Vienna® Beef Hot Dogs are the best tasting dogs you will ever experience. Over 80% of hot dog vendors in Chicago proudly serve Vienna® Beef Hot Dogs, and Maxies follows in that same tradition. They come in regular and jumbo sizes…we recommend the jumbo and you won’t be disappointed as it has a hearty “snap” when you bite into it. Not into having your dog with “the works?” Don’t worry – there are many other great topping choices: chili, cheddar, and even chili cheese.
For the salad lovers out there... you will never find a better place to create your own salad! This is no ordinary salad offering, as you will see from the list of toppings available: Artichoke Hearts, Bacon, Bean Sprouts, Beets, Black Beans, Blue Cheese, Broccoli, Carrots, Cauliflower, Celery, Cheddar Cheese, Corn, Cranberries, Croutons, Edamame, Eggs, Egg Whites, Feta Cheese, Fried Onions, Garbanzo Beans, Green Peppers, Hearts of Palm, Jicama, Mushrooms, Mozzarella Cheese, Olives, Onions (Red), Peas, Raisins, Roasted Red Peppers, Sunflower Seeds, Sun Dried Tomatoes, Tofu, Tomatoes, Wasabi Peas, Water Chestnuts, and Zucchini. And get ready for this… their “Take It To The Max” salad lets you have any number of toppings for only $ 7.50 and it is more than enough for two!
For those of you with young kids, Maxies offers a kid’s menu called “Mini Maxi’s” that offers everything from chicken fingers and burgers to grilled cheese sandwiches and macaroni and cheese.
