Maxine's on Shine: Is the passionate vision of the eclectic couple, Kirt & Maxine Earhart. Led by the heart, the entire Maxine's family exudes an effort to enthusiastically elevate the experience of engaging others in a enlightening & entertaining epicurean environment. A safe sexy comfortable and delicious vibe is offered to all. While we love children, our restaurant is not recommended for infants and children under 10. Savoring the flavor of date night or quality time with adults is best suited for enjoying our restaurant. Maxine's on Shine is a place "where good attitudes are welcomed, great attitudes are rewarded, and bad attitudes are changed." American Neighborhood Cuisine w/ Full Bar: The culinary team is led by Chef Fabiano Olmo. Our menu is small, diverse, and created in house. Pasta, Seafood, Steak, Seasonal Selections, and Desserts are the core. The beverage program is guided by Kirt "The Juice Pimp" Earhart. "JP" is a member of The Guild of Master Sommeliers and Bar Smarts. Over 20 worldwide wines by the glass, a Florida and USA based beer list, and classic cocktail program are it's essence. Location: Part of the Historic Colonialtown South neighborhood just east of Lake Eola in Downtown Orlando. We are truly nestled in amongst homes in this 1940's area. The décor reflects a blending of that era w/ today and the styles of New York, Paris, Milan & Orlando, while often hearing New Orleans comparisons. A world travelers parlor from a romantics point of view awaits when visiting your epicurean friend's home. "Happy Hour & a Half": Mon - Fri, 5p to 6:30. $20 includes a Wine Lovers Board and a bottle of Pinot Grigio, Cabernet Sauvignon, or Sparkling Wine. An excellent beginning to your meal or as a fun respite from your days work. "Rejuicination Brunch" Fri Sat Sun, 10a - 3p. Just voted "Best Brunch in Orlando" Orlando Magazine and Orlando Weekly for 2020. Made to order a la carte menu and award winning bloody mary's, mimosas, and sangria. Live entertainment, Sat & Sun. One of Orlando's favorite local brunch hangouts. RSVPS for 10 or less can be made online at www.maxinesonshine.com We are available for large parties, special events (rehearsal dinners, receptions, showers, birthdays, & corporate events), etc. Please Note: We do not have children's menus, room for strollers, or seating for children. We used to be kids! And kind of still are. But our space is small. And from our music to sometimes the artwork we have displayed, to the experience our fans expect at dinner, we aren't the best choice for dinner with the kids. Children under 7 after 7 are not allowed on Friday and Saturday to help provide the environment our patrons are looking for on date nights, anniversaries, and all of the occasions where Orlando has chosen Maxine's for their sexy, comfortable, delicious night out. Thank you!

One of Maxine‘s favorite appetizers on the restaurant’s Magical Dining Menu, 3 courses for $40, is the smoked salmon that is lightly drizzled with maple syrup and spices with avocado cream, on soft non-bread. So yummy!
