• Food is good; Stillwater is a beautiful town in the summer & fall.
• Rude treatment by hostess and told to leave to make room for next group.

“If you have 6 or more in your party, Marx will allow you to make reservations. It is an extremely busy place so I would not recommend this restaurant if you'd like a relaxing dining experience. In fact, we went for my birthday and we were shocked to be asked to leave immediately after paying our bill because according to the hostess "we were there long enough and others were waiting." Our group of 40-somethings was shocked to be treated like loitering teenagers especially after spending over $375 for our meal and drinks. We wouldn't have cared that the service was so slow (it took 15 minutes before our server even acknowledged our table and it was a 20 minute wait for our bill after we were done eating) if we didn't have to suffer the indignity of being told (not asked) to leave. This was not the way I thought I'd be treated on my birthday dinner and we weren't even offered dessert. If it weren't for the fact that they are very obvious about their goal of turning tables fast, the food is good, the atmosphere is lively and Stillwater is a beautiful town.”
