Burt & Max's | Our Story

About Burt & Max's — A Delray Marketplace Favorite Since 2013

Burt & Max's opened at Delray Marketplace in February 2013 with one goal: to be the restaurant Delray Beach actually needed. More than a decade later, locals continue to come back for fresh food, a welcoming atmosphere, and a place where everyone has a seat.

Quality Starts Here

Quality Starts Here

Led by Executive Chef Luis Ortiz, our kitchen is all about fresh ingredients and making things the right way. We source locally whenever possible, use premium meats, seafood, and produce, and do the work right here in our kitchen, from filleting fresh fish and preparing beef in-house to making our sauces, dressings, and more from scratch.
The People Who Keep It Running

Managing Partner Steve “Buddha” Mann started on the floor and worked his way up through South Florida’s restaurant world. That ground-up perspective continues to shape how our team treats every guest and creates the welcoming experience Burt & Max’s is known for.
