Mon Amie Maxi in Frankfurt am Main

very beautiful interior, good and fast service, the waiters are very pleasant and all polite, especially the French waiter with glasses, he complements the atmosphere of the restaurant and treats all visitors very cordially, and I want to express my deep gratitude to the waitress, the girl, I don’t know her name, but she was very pleasant and served us excellently!!!! I recommend visiting this place!!!!!

Overall we found it ok to mediocre, rather disappointing in relation to the price level. But one thing is not possible: the only non-alcoholic cold drinks available are mineral water, cola or sweet lemonade. “Alcohol-free” beer or wine is also available upon request. Dear Maxi, you haven't recognized the signs of the times yet?

Food & ambience simply great! Timeless, always worth a visit. Wine is quite expensive, a fine drop is recommended here. The waiter was sometimes unfriendly but again suits the French shop.

Very good restaurant. Food and ambience first class.

We were there with the family on the occasion of our 40th wedding anniversary. It was a worthy setting. Seven of us were able to eat a la carte. All food and wine were top. The atmosphere is festive, cozy, the service is friendly and attentive. We would be happy to make the journey from the Ruhr area again for the next special opportunity.

Very chic shop where you quickly feel at home, bright and friendly service, great cuisine ... just a tip: please add a little more lobster 🦞 to the lobster soup ;) ... everything's good

No matter the dish, it is always excellent. Lobster Bisque, compared to many restaurants, by far the best. Excellent service, wonderful ambience.

An extraordinary experience at Monami Maxi! Special thanks go to Janik, who, despite the restaurant being fully booked on Valentine's Day, made sure that my wife and I still got a table. His commitment and friendly manner made our evening perfect. It was a wonderful Valentine's Day, and Janik definitely contributed to it. Employees like this are the heart of a great restaurant. Everything is best for you, Janik – keep it up!

Nice cozy place. I had lobster cocktail as starter but nothing special . In return, the lamb chops was tender and juicy with a huge portion. Dessert didn’t live up to my expectations..Will come back to try sth else.🥂

A wonderful restaurant. French bread and salted butter before the meal are amazing. Beef Goulash is very delicious and unforgettable..

Very nice atmosphere! However, we were only there for drinks. So we can't say anything about the food. The cocktail P⭐️ Martini was amazing! And we had one of the friendliest and most personable smiling waiters!

★ High-end service and distinguished treatment. We hope for more progress 🌹.. ★ A high-end service and excellent treatment and we hope for more progress 🌹.. ★ A high-quality service and an excellent treatment and our customers have the best progress 🌹.. ★ There is a great service and a home and a home with the Fort Schritte 🌹.. ★

Had a great table with direct view of the kitchen. Very kind and professional staff and the food was wonderful. Bone marrow is a MUST.

Fantastic ambience and excellent food!!

We had a fantastic evening. Service and food were at the highest level.

I recently went to this Mook Group restaurant for the first time and I have to say that the service did not live up to the otherwise courteous and attentive quality of the other restaurants. Too bad. The food was great though.

Excellent food in a beautiful atmosphere! The service was very accommodating and, since we didn't want to drink alcohol, we even got a non-alcoholic “wine” tasting 🫶🏼

Excellent food, very friendly service and wonderful ambience! Successful all around. I would love to come back!

Service and food in a class of its own! I've been looking for a restaurant that offers this quality for a long time. From the beginning with butter on bread to the excellent main course with lobster and beef fillet, everything tasted perfect here. The ingredients are super fresh and you can taste the quality. With a perfectly recommended wine pairing. Here you can only get your own taste! Great cinema!

Service and food were great, but the prices are a bit too high.

Coming from Kathmandu to Frankfurt few times am year and its must for me to have once dinner in Frankfurts best Restaurant.

Unfortunately, we are very disappointed with our visit to Mon Amie Maxi. First of all, the evening itself was nice and we also enjoyed the food. Although I would still question the price-performance ratio. But that's not what this is about. Unfortunately, the overall experience was marred by symptoms of food poisoning after our visit. We had reported this, but unfortunately there was no interest in actually clarifying this. Here you were dismissed with standard phrases. For an evening where you spend several hundred euros and expect a certain level of reliability and customer service, it's simply disappointing. Unfortunately I cannot make a recommendation here. Incidentally, I have already discovered a similar comment here in the reviews - so this does not seem to be an isolated case.

I liked it very much, I will come again. The ambiance is very nice. Our sweet Turkish waiter hosted us very nicely.

We had a fantastic evening at Mon Amie Maxi. The food was wonderful and especially the service (thanks Abu) was perfect.

There is no other way to describe a perfect evening. Food, service and ambience were simply “par excellence” I was a bit skeptical in advance because of one or two negative reviews. Incomprehensible to me!!!!!

Fantastic restaurant with excellent cuisine and service ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Location: zentral in der City mit einer opulente Designereinrichtung die super harmonisch und sehr stilvoll ist. Herzlich und warm. Die Blumen im ganzen Restaurant sind frisch und runden das Ambiente ab. Service: sehr freundlich, zuvorkommend wie es sich in solch einem Restaurant gehört. Speisen: fantastisch Die feine Küche ist ein Gaumenschmaus und ein Geschmackserlebnis. Preis: sehr hoch, doch man bekommt für sein Geld entsprechende Service und ein qualitativ hochwertiges Essen. Passt also!

Absolutely recommended. In terms of price, it's not a restaurant for every day, but the breathtaking food and excellent service are simply worth it. Best Café de Paris sauce outside France.

Exceptionally beautiful restaurant and food is top class. Worth trying. A great experience

The food was very high quality. French cuisine that is certainly particularly appealing if you like seafood. The ambience also appears high-quality and cozy. Maybe the tables were a bit small for several dishes + bread. The service was nice and attentive. One dish was forgotten but was procured fairly quickly. The only criticism is the price. The food was very good but you can get it cheaper that way. It is still a perfect location for a high-quality business dinner

The “Mon Amie Maxi” by restaurateur Christian Mook is probably one of the most established luxury restaurants in Frankfurt. Bankers and consultants from the financial metropolis meet here, especially at lunchtime. The “fried salmon King Ora” (€39.90) with cream spinach and Béarnaise sauce tasted really good. The bread that came with it was also delicious.

The service was world class! We have never been welcomed so warmly and warmly.

REAL French brasserie at a high culinary level. Very professional and friendly team, fair prices!

What a great evening! We hadn't been here for too long and then we met old friends from the Mook group and immediately felt at home again. Food was bombastic. The 85 champagne is pure porn and the Rhone red wine afterwards is a poem. Celebrations have to be celebrated as they come: we did! Let's do it again: because it's just really fun here! Thank you all.

Great food, great service and great ambience

Delicious seafood and a beautiful restaurant.

False friendliness, simply added over €600 to the bill.

Attention ⚠️ Waiters write uneaten food/drinks on the bill!

Disappointing experience I had high expectations for this restaurant as it bills itself as Michelin worthy, but unfortunately our experience was anything but. The food was OK, but definitely not at the level you would expect from a restaurant with such pretensions would. The interior of the restaurant is beautifully designed, but unfortunately that is the only positive thing I can mention. The service was simply terrible. The lady who served us was unfriendly from the start and made it clear to us that we were not welcome. I had already mentioned when making the reservation that one person in our group was vegetarian. Nevertheless, the vegetarian order for the starter was met with visible displeasure. When I asked for recommendations, I was even advised to "go to another place" as there was nothing here suitable for vegetarians and vegans - an incredibly rude comment. The only positive exception was an older waiter who was very friendly and tried to make our evening more pleasant. Unfortunately, the rest of the staff were just as rude as our main server. Overall the service was so bad that I cannot recommend this restaurant. There are much better alternatives, especially for vegetarians and people who value friendly service.

Food, drinks, ambience and above all service were perfect, a place to feel good! Eleven of us went to a family celebration at Mon Ami Maxi. The evening was incredibly beautiful!!

Casi una noche perfecta. La comida es deliciosa. Los mariscos y el escarol fueron cocinados a la perfección. Todo lo que comimos fue perfecto. Siempre llamo cuando los mariscos no han terminado, cocinados. El ambiente es elegante, cálido y lujoso. El servicio es experimentado e informado. Mi única queja, aunque pequeña, fue el vertido de vino. Mi marido no bebe mucho y yo no quiero beber una botella entera sola, así que pedimos por copa. El vertido era pequeño; más bien un vertido de maridaje. Iba a mencionarlo, cuando volviera a servir. Así que pensé que quizás era una diferencia regional en el servicio. Cuando llegó la factura, cobraron por cada pequeño vertido. No sé si esto es una política de la casa o si el camarero tomó esa decisión. No arruinó la velada, fue solo la única decepción. Tú decides si eso importa.

Service is great but Two times i have been lately there and i got Food poisoning. Once with austern and another with steak and truffle bacon sauce. Seriously guys?? Never again !

Super tasty food and great wine list. I just can’t wait to come back

“An absolutely outstanding culinary experience! The food at MON AMIE MAXI was not only delicious but also beautifully presented. The service was attentive and friendly, and the atmosphere was cozy and welcoming. I will definitely come back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for an unforgettable dining experience.”

This place lies to customers. I was charged more than the menu outside.

Great experience They were out of crème brulee :/

The best restaurant in Frankfurt. Everything is just right here! From service to food! ♥️

We were just passing by and noticed the beautiful chandeliers in the windows. It looked so romantic and chic that we decided to stop in for a cocktail. The place was so cozy and inviting that we ended up staying for dinner. The service was great, and the french music made the evening even more enjoyable and romantic 🥰 The food was absolutely delicious, I'll share some pictures of what we ordered!

Amazing atmosphere, excellent service and delicious food. One of the best food and service I had in Germany

The ambience is beautiful and with great attention to detail. The service was very attentive. Anyone who complains about prices has little idea about the logistics of fresh produce, especially seafood and shellfish. We had two “starters”: Gratiniere Bone Marrow and the Etagere Spectaculaire. It was really a taste experience. I found the grilled lobster particularly delicious with incredibly great flavors. There are a lot of specialties in this shop that I would like to try, foods that you would otherwise often look for in vain. For example: sweetbreads. I'm thrilled and would love to come back.

We were there with four people and really enjoyed the great atmosphere. The bread was excellent and the quality of the food on the cake stand was impressive. The fresh fish and oysters were of excellent quality. The sauces served with it were finely balanced. The dessert is particularly noteworthy. Overall, a very tasty experience in a stylish setting.

Alles war fein bis zur Vorspeise und der Öffnung der Weinflasche. Dann verschwand die Bedienung und wir sassen dumm rum. Miserabler Service. Wir zahlten nach langem Warten und nahmen das Hauptgericht in einem anderen Restaurant. Die Vorspeise im Mon Amie Maxi schmeckte hervorragend.

Sensational! Prices very high, but OK. I just find the side dishes at 7.99 euros each a bit too expensive.

In the beginning everything was actually good since we go there a lot. But since when has it been compulsory to tip in Germany, the most shameful thing was that the waiter himself typed more than 10% tip into the POS machine and demanded that we HAVE to tip at least 10%！！！At the end he joined in the discussion us and told us that if we also wanted good service, the service he gave us, this 10% tip was also included. I think it's such cheekiness！we always tip, no matter how much we give, it's up to us（we always give fairly and not a little）

Highly recommended if you like classic French cuisine! The service makes the difference here.

Ich wollte Mitte Juli für September reservieren und wurde sehr unfreundlich auf diese Maßnahme hingewiesen. „ das machen wir ohne Ausnahme nicht „ Selbst als ich sagte das meine Gäste von Außerhalb anreisen war das der hochnäsigen weiblichen Stimme egal…. Dieser Möchtegern Franzose sieht mich nie wieder…..

Today I was alone on a Saturday evening at mom ami Maxi, nice ambience, great service, fantastically delicious food. Background music very authentic it reminds me of Paris. If I could I would also give it 10 stars 🌟. I will gladly come again. Thank you 🙏

Good atmosphere, but expensive for the quality of the food.

Lunch in a perfect atmosphere. Clear line, quick but not too quick lunch break. In addition, experienced and friendly service with good puns and nice wine recommendations.

Me and my family ordered the french onion soup, lamb shank and étagère spectaculaire seafood platter. The french onion soup was perfect and was one of the best onion soups I have had. The seafood platter was also very fresh and very flavourful. All the food was superb except for the lamb shank which was a bit too salty, but generally the food was fresh, perfectly cooked and delicious. The staff service was also excellent and they were very friendly.

Best day of my life started here.

EVERYTHING was right, beautiful table, charming, professional service... the food was perfect... A wonderful evening. Great hosts, it's a shame that I don't live in Frankfurt, I'll be happy to come back the next time I visit Frankfurt. THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

Good food, great champagne, very friendly service people. Stay away from the desserts! After ordering the Ile Flottante which was really sub-par, we went for the creme brûlée. You imagine you can’t go wrong with that but actually you can… too dry to be worth the calories. And I’m sure anybody can have a bad moment but with a bill of 250 euro, you would at least think they wouldn’t charge the failed dessert(s)… Stick with the terrace and the great artichoke for starter and steer clear of the steak tartare and the dessert!

Wir hatten das Restaurant informiert, dass wir ca. eine halbe Stunde später als zur Reservierung kommen, was kein Problem darstellte. Leider hat es etwas länger gedauert bis wir nach unserem Aperitif die Bestellung für das Abendessen aufgeben konnten. 2 Vorspeisen und 1 Hauptgang waren nicht mehr verfügbar. Dies alles sollte sich aber noch als das geringste Übel des Abends herausstellen. Die Vorspeise wurde serviert. Bis zu diesem Zeitpunkt wurde noch kein Brot gereicht. Erst nach 3x Aufforderung bekamen wir Brot serviert, nachdem wir mit der Vorspeise schon fast fertig waren. Der Aperitif war in der Zwischenzeit getrunken. Keine Bedienung kümmerte sich um uns und fragte, ob wir noch etwas drinken wollten. Nach einigen unmissverständlichen Handzeichen und Hilferufen kam dann eine Kellnerin, die allerdings unsicher war, welche 2 Gläser Rotwein zu empfehlen sind. Sie wollte die Sommeliere schicken. Dies kam allerdings nie und wir saßen im Trockenen. Wiederum bemühte ich mich um eine Bedienung. Nachdem meine ersten beiden Rufe und Handzeichen nicht erhört wurden hob ich meine Stimme etwas an. Tatsächlich kam dann eine Bedienung, die sich darüber beschwerte, dass ich geschrien hätte und mich dafür entschuldigen solle. So eine groteske und peinliche Entgleisung und Fehlverhalten einer Bedienung habe ich noch nie erlebt und war dementsprechend perplex. Die beiden Gläser Rotwein wurden dann von jemand anderem gebracht. Diesen Vorfall berichtete auch dem Restaurantleiter, der sich weder entschuldigte, noch irgendeine Kompensation für diesen Vorfall anbot, sondern lediglich meinte, dass er dies im nächsten Meeting besprechen werden. Zusammenfassend kann ich sagen, dass die Bedienung es schaffte aus einem anfangs schönen Abend einen Alptraum zu machen.

İ guess i expected a lot more, really overhyped and was dissapointing in so many ways. İ havent even eaten 1/4 of my food, the ambient is way to dark and a bit too loud for my taste. The food and service doesnt justify the pricing.

I had the pleasure of eating here a few times and every time it was great! 👍🏾

Delicious, fun, a must for true gourmets. Unfortunately, the 3-piece starter plate is no longer available. Otherwise, just good cuisine. The foie heas could be even more schlonzigerv.

Today everything was excellent again as usual

First of all i felt a bit under pressure of ordering wine or generally more from the waitress, the glasses smelled and i asked him to change and he was kinda pissed off, the food was good but the feeling that waitress gave to me ruined the taste of food !

If you want to experience a relaxing and great evening you should have been here. Food and everything about it is great, even if the price is a little higher. It was a great, delicious experience.

The restaurant experience started poorly with a hostile greeting and continued with subpar service. The waitress assumed we were sharing a dish without asking, resulting in overcharging and wasted food due to undisclosed ingredients. The oysters unexpectedly got unavailable. The lack of a wine menu and the waitress's inability to provide information about the wines were disappointing. Service was unfriendly and unprofessional, contrary to expectations for an upscale establishment. Despite the appealing design and decent food, the overall experience was marred by poor management and declining service quality. Unless improvements are made, the restaurant's future looks uncertain.

For the price range we expected so much more quality and more service. Overall the whole place felt like an over clichéd version of a simple brasserie in suburban Paris coupled with untrained old waiters and high prices. The food was mediocre at best, the waiter wasn’t capable of making food recommendations, was pouring wine over our plates into our glasses and openly asked us for a higher tip at the end. Either I have been living in France for too long to find this place remotely acceptable or I have not been living in Frankfurt for long enough to develop the necessary sense of open-mindedness to just accept anything. Long story short: take a train / book a flight to Paris and go to the cheapest brasserie, you’ll have better value for money.

Cuisine: 5/5 At Mon Amie Maxi you can experience culinary highlights. Every bite is a culinary delight, thanks to the outstanding quality and creativity in the preparation. Service: 5/5 The service is not only professional, but also warm and attentive. The staff ensures that you feel at home and that no wishes are left unfulfilled. Ambience: 5/5 The ambience is inviting and stylish without being stuffy. You can not only eat here, but also relax and enjoy the evening. Overall impression: 5/5 A visit to Mon Amie Maxi is always a special experience. Everything is just right here, from the cuisine to the service to the ambience. An absolutely recommended restaurant!

Great food, very friendly staff and nice atmosphere.

A perfect place for a romantic date.

It has a nice atmosphere and can be used for dinner parties. The appetizers such as onion soup and escargot were of a high standard and I was very satisfied.

This is how gastronomy should be. High feel-good factor. Perfect service. Calm. Best products and excellent food.

We had a fantastic evening, in a chilled Sunday evening atmosphere. We felt very comfortable at our comfortable table at the counter and the service served us attentively and with a lot of humor and charm. The food was excellent and we made the most of the short waiting time with a bottle of Aligoté. Thank you for the lovely evening! What would Frankfurt be without the Mook stores?

Finally we were back at Mon Amie Maxi! As an aperitif we had a Vesper Martini and a glass of champagne. The starter was the Grand Bleu salad - perfect Roquefort dressing! Not too much of the intense cheese! The crayfish salad with wonderful crabs and in a nice combination with avocado and beans. The skin course as always with the best sole around! Now available at the current price! That was 79 euros for us… The beef tartare with pepper sauce and matchstick potatoes was perfect. Add a nice bottle of Chablis and the evening was perfect!

Very loud at lunchtime. Armchairs too big for no tables.

Very nice, sophisticated ambience with a sophisticated menu. We really enjoyed the evening.

A very good restaurant in an old villa. Definitely should try the foie gras 👍🏻 good service and a nice, intimate atmosphere.

This can easily be my favorite restaurant in Frankfurt. Great food selection, superb wine and champagne selection. The service is class and attentive. The atmosphere is just amazing and can be a spot for either a date, a meeting or just a normal gathering.

Good French food in Frankfurt. Excellent service. The atmosphere is perfect for a weekend evening with family or friends.

The best restaurant in Frankfurt! Love it…..sole with daily price overpriced for my taste…..annoyance disappears with enjoyment :-) Service fast, sometimes too fast! (You should mention if you want a break between courses) Wine recommendation is always 12/10! Whether it's a date or a business meeting, you've come to the right place. Price/performance balance!

Good as always. Service was rather slow, and a waiter forgot one coctail, but by German standards still rather good place. Duck confit and lobster casserole are strong recommendations.

The garlic snails are delicious but a little salty. They go well with bread, the lobster and shrimp are of good quality, and the mashed potatoes are full of milky flavor! Delicious recommendation

This is such a lovely interior it almost makes up for not so good food. First, there are no vegetarian options, none. Asking if a vegetarian dish was possible there was no option that the kitchen would prepare something, the only offer was a starter with Rochefort cheese that could be made vegetarian. Since at least 10% of the population eat vegetarian these days, it is a bit from the stone age but also offensive that a restaurant in this class doesn't offer any vegetarian food. What if you are with a group and one of them is vegetarian, they can't order! Anyway we had the duck with lentils and boeuf bourguignon instead. The brown duck was on a brown bed of lentils and it didn't do much for the eye, it actually looked like something less appealing. There were absolutely no vegetables, just a very tasteless duck and brown lentils. The boeuf bourguignon was a little better but too salty for our taste and there was actually a carrot on the plate. The wine was very good but 18 euro per glass. This restaurant has a very nice atmosphere, good service but definitely needs to up there game in the kitchen with these prices because the food was really not good. Maybe if you want oysters this is the place to be but the other options not so much. The 18 euro for the wine was also way over prized. Sorry, not a repeat visit for us.

Definitely excellent luxury restaurant. He belongs to the “MOOK” group. Nothing to say just perfect

One of the worst dining experiences I've had in the West End. Mediocre service, ridiculous prices, and the food took forever. Perhaps if this had been a busy night, but my wife and I were here on a Tuesday. Just awful. Definitely not worth it.

Our experience can be summed up in one word: mediocrity. For the price you pay, you expect unusual combinations of flavors, an author's vision. In reality you get uninteresting and very averagely prepared dishes. In my case it was an Omar „ragout“, which is essentially overcooked slices of Omar on mashed potatoes. A dish that would be more suitable for a kids menu due to its unpretentiousness. The selection of open wines is a shame for an establishment of this level. The service is an absolute disappointment. The waiter was polite until the time of payment, where he was clearly and demonstrably saddened by the amount of tip left. I do not consider it necessary to leave a tip when the price/quality obviously does not meet expectations, but I am always polite and expect common courtesy from service. A little more about the service: this time our bread was dropped on the floor, collected and put back on the table, as if it was necessary xd. Overall a very mediocre and overrated place, although the Frankfurt public is obviously hungry for quality places.

Always my pleasure. Food is very good, service is friendly and relaxed and the atmosphere is very nice. Of course the whole thing has its price, but it's worth it.

Spectacular restaurant in Frankfurt. Being able to enjoy good company and savor those dishes in such a cozy place is worth knowing.

Everything was perfect, every time a pleasure and a very nice evening spent. For the mother, as a native of Bordeaux and the Sud-Ouest, huge praise for the complete package. It couldn't be more authentic.

On the 3rd visit the service was not correct. A pity. Otherwise everything was fine.

Really excellent place to have lunch or dinner. Try the mussels and fries a traditional brasserie dish. The service is super friendly and accommodating. You wouldn’t expect this in such a business focused neighborhood. We will be back.

Sehr leckeres Essen, stilvolles Ambiente.

Great French cuisine, very friendly team... Love the place and will always come back. Not cheap, but definitely worth it!
