“ We came in for tea and a small bite to eat. The rustic eggs were absolutely amazing. The atmosphere was calm yet invigorating. Lily, our server was so attentive and nice! Definitely recommend ”
“ Wow wow wow, what a spectacular gem in Harlem! We had a great bday dinner, had chicken parm , fettuccine pesto shrimp pasta and chicken risotto. Outstanding service, food, desserts. Let me tell you, every single dessert is light, decadent, just enough sweet. We had chocolate moose cake, hazelnut cream cake and my favorite banana Nutella gelato with cafe lattes. You won't be disappointed, come and support. Thank you so much Nick ”
“ Haven't been here since early last year. This is my new regular now. After going to Via Carota yesterday and being extremely disappointed I wanted to come back to Max Soha and see if my first impression was blinded by not having tried many restaurants in NY at that time. With my wife we had 2 pasta specials, 1 bruschetta and 2 desserts and I have to say everything was extremely superior to the highly hyped Via Carota (not to mention price friendly). Pastas were extremely good and the desserts were impressive...would highly benefit from having more cocktails though! ”
“ Came here as a group of 5 people. We got a couple salads, pasta dishes and the salmon. It was very tasty and well cooked. ”
“ friendly staff, delicious food. great for breakfast and lunch. Highly recommended. I had their lunch spaghetti with vegetables (topped with shrimps). My friend had avocado solmon toast. All amazing. ”
“ We love Max Soha. Our trip to NY was made extra special by our exquisite breakfasts. Amazing French Toast and coffee. Looked after by our host and his staff. What a treat. Thank you! ”
“ I really hope no one finds this gem ever — great vibe, great homemade pasta specials, great daily fresh juice, lovely furnitures, staff and music. Woah. I will come every night if I can. But again, I really hope no one finds this place ever, so I can keep it to my heart. ”
“ Delicious food but above all some of the best service I’ve ever received at a restaurant, my party of 6 felt so comfortable and thoroughly enjoyed our brunch as if we were at home. Thanks Lily and Juan for your excellent attention! ”
