Celebrating 20 Years of Timeless French Dining in Dublin

At Chez Max, we take pride in bringing a true taste of France to Dublin. We’re thrilled to share that the Irish Independent recently reviewed our bistro, with esteemed food critic Katy McGuinness highlighting the lasting quality and authentic experience that Chez Max has maintained over the years. It’s a high honour to be recognised for consistency, especially when the review comes from such a respected publication.

A Review 20 Years in the Making

In her recent review, Katy McGuinness of the Irish Independent highlighted a unique legacy: Chez Max was first reviewed by the renowned critic Paolo Tullio two decades ago. Katy’s review emphasizes how Chez Max has not only withstood the test of time but continues to deliver the authentic, high-quality French experience that Dubliners have cherished for years. Her praise is a testament to the hard work and passion that goes into keeping Chez Max a favorite on Dublin’s dining scene.

Consistency in Quality and Atmosphere

The Irish Independent review emphasized the quality that Chez Max continues to offer – from classic dishes like Boeuf Bourguignon to our cozy, Parisian-style ambiance. At Chez Max, we’ve worked hard to preserve the essence of a traditional French bistro, creating a warm, welcoming atmosphere that transports guests straight to France. Our chefs and team take pride in each dish, ensuring every detail remains true to the traditions that have made us a Dublin favorite.

Honoring Paolo Tullio’s Legacy and Katy McGuinness’s Praise
