    Great Maple is exceptional. The menu is amazing; the food is superb; the service is outstanding. It is a popular busy place, so please do make reservations. The parking lot is small, and street parking is challenging. Consider taking a ride share to and from. Highly recommend!

    I had the basic two egg breakfast with chicken sausage and found everything cooked to perfection and delicious. We had a 12:30 p.m. reservation on a Sunday, the place was packed, yet we were seated right on time. Service was perfect, with food delivered hot. Highly recommended, but be sure to plan well by making your reservation a couple of days in advance to get the time slot you desire.

    It’s just a great place. Can get noisy when crowded. Food is stellar and our server was great. She really took care of us.
