Max‘s Bar & Grill is a restaurant that was featured on a particularly dramatic episode of Kitchen Nightmares. Is it still open today, or did the chaos bring it crashing down?
If you’re curious to know whether or not Max’s Bar & Grill is still open after its Kitchen Nightmares episode, you’re not alone.
The restaurant (which is located in Long branch, New Jersey) welcomed a visit from Gordon Ramsay in June 2023. Not only did he uncover problems with the food, but there was also the Max’s Bar love triangle to untangle, too.
Here’s an update on how the Kitchen Nightmares restaurant is doing after getting some guidance and advice from Gordon himself.
Max’s Bar & Grill is still open
Max’s Bar & Grill is still open today. The beachside restaurant is worth visiting if you’re interested in trying out their food. Some of their menu items include chicken wings, Caesar salads, and decadent hotdogs.
You can also order crispy chicken sandwiches, hamburgers, grilled cheese sandwiches, truffle fries, and sweet treats.
Max’s Bar & Grill has been around for decades, which means it’s something of a historical landmark at this point.
Originally, it was known as Max’s Famous Hotdogs when it first opened its doors in 1928. Max Altman is the man who launched the business before he was bought out by his business partner.
