"Elkins Parkers get their fill of 'terrific' kosher Med and Eastern Euro fare and 'friendly' service at this 'gourmet' spot (where you can BYO as long as it’s Kashrut-compliant); while some find the decor 'cheesy', fromage and other dairy are strictly treif here, and remember it’s closed for Sabbath; N.B. open for lunch Mondays–Fridays." - Zagat Review
"With a menu that ranges fromfive-spice roasted duck to Indian-curried chicken and ice 'creams' made with coconut and almond milk, [Max & David's] is a coming-out party for the possibilities of kosher cookery." – Craig LeBan, Inquirer Food Critic
"Max & David’s in Elkins Park…offers the best of both words: A great restaurant in which to host a party and a top catering service to help you at home. Either way, you’ll walk away full and happy." – Life in Montgomery East, November 2009
"[Max & David’s] is a place where 95 percent of the food served is homemade and 100 percent is geshmak (delicious)." – Montgomery Town & Country Living, Summer 2009
"Welcoming interior, professional staff...impressive table settings and, of course, the food, [Steven] Katz’s expressed wish of creating a “great restaurant that just happens to be kosher” seems to have come true."–Inside Winter 2008

Testimonals
Restaurant: "Kosher cuisine redefined. This is not your Aunt Ethel's stuffed cabbage. Great food for a reasonable fare whether you keep Kosher or not. If you keep Kosher, you'll think you've gone to Heaven. If you don't keep Kosher, you'll think you've gone to Walnut Street. Worth the trip to Elkins Park." - Elliot
"I just wanted to say that I was pleasantly surprised...I did not grow up keeping kosher and have resigned myself to generally indifferent food and indifferent service at high prices. This was the best meal I've had in 10 years...I was overwhelmed by the fantastic service and the wonderful food. My friend and I had a great time...I just wanted to say thanks again for a wonderful experience. I look forward to eating at your restaurant again." -Tasha
