We had an amazing time at Pasta Max Cafe. The food was incredible. Our waitress was very friendly and quick on the service. There was a bit of a wait to get a table but absolutely worth it!!

We went for dinner. I ordered the chicken breast with wine sauce, artichoke, capers, red peppers, mushrooms. It was very good.My friend ordered the spaghetti with bolognese sauce, it was a disappointment. It was very acidic and not much flavor. Had the ceaser salad really liked the dressing. Service was good and liked the coziness.

A gem in the town of McDonough! Came on a work trip and this was nearby where I had to go. Everyone raved about this spot and I ended up going right when it opened at 11am! Got seated immediately and placed an order for the Black Pepper Pappadelle. It came with two bread soaked in garlic and a minestrone soup. The portion of the pasta was big and it was fairly priced. I really enjoyed the minestrone soup. Definitely loved the chill vibe here too!

Pasta Max is a hidden gem within McDonough. If you're not from the area, then you probably wouldn't know about it. Located in the McDonough square (downtown McDonough) this small intimate spot is definitely a spot to try for all the Italian lovers. The service was warm and welcoming. The food was delicious and the rolls they serve are addicting! This place was established in 94' I believe and I can see why it is still in business.

Parked on the street ,no lot to park in, had been raining so floors were very slippery mixed with the wet. Holly was our waitress very friendly a great waitress., greeted us within 2 minutes .Decor was nice, cozy atmosphereI ordered a red wine which was good and hubby ordered sweet tea which he loved It wasn't too sweet. It was perfect for dinner I ordered angel hair pasta with a lemon butter sauce and hubby ordered scallops and shrimp. The portions were big portions, our waitress had brought up some garlic rolls which were amazing. They were so good We even asked for a second basket. I also ordered a Caesar salad which was good and My husband's came with the house salad which was very good and crispy like it should be. The prices were in line with most places and you end up with two meals. We would definitely return to this establishment in the future

Following a lovely day of strawberry picking at Southern Belle Farm we ventured to a small Italian place that only serves wine and some classic Italian dishes. My son and I enjoyed a dish of chicken parm, which was plentiful, well seasoned and the noodles were homemade. Service was quick which I can always appreciate with a hung 20 month old.

I cannot believe I grew up so close to Pasta Max Cafe and am just now trying it! I came here on a weekend night and the place was packed! I can't remember if they take reservations or not, but if they do, I highly recommend making them, because the place was packed! The dining area is small, yet charming and intimate. The restaurant is locally owned and has been up and running for over 30 years. It is definitely a staple in Henry county. I love the complimentary bread service they offered. The rolls were light & fluffy drizzled with olive oil and a touch of garlic. It was hard to eat just one, but I wanted to save room for my pasta entrée. There were several on the menu that I wanted to choose, but I selected Chicken Parmigiana dish. First of all, I was blown away by the portion sizes of their dishes. Their chefs are heavy-handed and you will definitely be leaving with leftovers. The piece of chicken I got was almost the size of my plate and the bowl was filled to the brim with pasta! Not to mention, the prices are very fair, especially in today's inflated market. The red sauce in my dish was unique to any red sauce I've tried before. I couldn't pinpoint what the special ingredient was, but it's definitely a standout taste in the sauce. I highly recommend any of the pastas that have red sauce. We also got the calamari appetizer that had the same yummy red sauce for dipping. The calamari was fresh, battered and fried well, and plenty was given for our table of three to share. We also ordered a large pepperoni pizza to see if their pies were as good as their pastas! Yep, they are, so I suggest ordering one of each for the table! Be sure to leave room for dessert because the tiramisu is to die for. Again, they give you a huge serving size of the cake and you can tell it's definitely homemade. This is some of the best tiramisu I've ever had, and I am very picky about my tiramisu. Last but not least, our service was outstanding. Even though the place was packed and only two servers working, they were on it! Our dishes came out quickly, food was hot, and drinks were refilled constantly. We were in and out at a reasonable time. I can't wait to go back and try some more of their food. If you are in the McDonough Square, make sure you choose this restaurant to dine at! You won't regret it, but only choose this place if you're hungry because you will be getting a lot of food!

This is a great local spot for pasta. I've been several times and have never had a bad experience. All of their pizzas are good. The pastas I've had are pretty good. All the soups are really good as well. The servers are always very nice and helpful. This is a probably not the best place if you want to bring a large group though. I wouldn't bring more than 4 people at a time because the restaurant is kind of small and they can only do so much. Overall I'm going to keep coming back.
