Max's Opera Cafe Redwood City, Redwood City

Like all of Max's locations, Max's Opera Cafe Redwood City can satisfy practically any craving with a menu boasting dishes from all around the world. That means Thai soba noodle salads share menu space with Russian cabbage soups, chicken tostadas, and crispy calamari. There are also a mixture of casual dishes, such as Max's popular corned-beef rueben, and fancier dishes, such as new york strips and red snapper in a butter sauce.

And naturally, the drinks are varied, too, ranging from wine and specialty cocktails to table-brewed ice teas and Dr. Brown's cream sodas.
