Swank to the max

Max-blog.jpg The owner's name is Wellington, so you know steakhouse Max Stein's has to be good. Opening in the former Hartwell House in Lexington a few months ago, this plush wine bar is a great place to get your power lunch on. Start w/ some grilled apple brie, shrimp scampi or a new york sirloin, all under $20 and you won't break the bank. At night, the lobster thermidor — a 3 lber, stuffed w/ scallops and doused in brandy cream sauce — should settle your hash. Sounds rich, decadent and outrageously old-school. This supper club w/ a seedy twist is on my list for a great Thursday night nosh. www.maxsteins.com.

I went there for lunch once. Too pretentious for my liking. Maybe I'd like it more for dinner.
