About Chez Max Restaurant
Chez Max Restaurant is a sensible Henrico pick for a quieter dinner or small celebration when the goal is a composed room rather than a high-profile reservation. Because public menu, price, chef, awards details are thin, it is better for flexible diners than groups that need firm cost or cuisine certainty in advance.
Chez Max Restaurant in Henrico is an evening option to consider when the schedule and dress code fit the plan. The verified hours are Wednesday and Thursday from 5–9 PM, Friday and Saturday from 5–10 PM, Sunday from 5–9 PM; it is closed Monday and Tuesday. The listed dress code is smart casual.
A restrained choice for a celebration that does not need spectacle
The safest read is practical: use Chez Max Restaurant when an evening in Henrico and a smart-casual setting are the important facts. There are no verified awards, chef details, signature dishes, cuisine category, or price tier in the available venue data, so the page should not frame it as a trophy reservation or build expectations around a specific menu.
First-timers should avoid planning around an unverified dish, format, or budget. Confirm current menu and visit details directly before going, especially if the occasion depends on a particular style of meal. If you are comparing dinner options, Tazza Kitchen, Tarrant's West, Casa Italiana, Buckheads's Restaurant & Chop House, Portico Restaurant are natural names to cross-shop.
Who should book it, who should cross-shop
Choose Chez Max Restaurant when the confirmed basics work for you: Henrico, evening service Wednesday through Sunday, smart-casual dress. It makes less sense for diners who need a verified cuisine, a clearly published price tier, lunch service, or detailed menu information before choosing a venue.
The read: choose Chez Max Restaurant when the known facts match the plan, verify the rest directly with the restaurant. For comparison shopping, consider Tazza Kitchen, Tarrant's West, Casa Italiana, Buckheads's Restaurant & Chop House, or Portico Restaurant depending on availability and the kind of evening you want.

Where to go if this is not the right fit
