This brunch spot is a must-visit for its flavorful, elevated pimped up ramyun and crispy yet non-greasy fried chicken. The buttery corn, freshly squeezed orange juice, and blueberry moffle perfectly round out the meal. If you’re looking for unique and delicious brunch fare, this place is a standout!
We've been trying to visit Sweet Maple for almost 2 years now and as luck would have it, something or the other would always happen and we'd just not end up there. A couple of weeks ago, we decided that this needs to happen and we were resolute. No fights, no plans, no distractions and a toddler that was well fed and did the deed at home. We were on a mission to dine at Sweet Maple on account of all the great reviews and myself being a connosieur of Chicken & Waffles. The day had come, we were ready! We planned to have a late (I mean very late) brunch at 1:30 PM thinking the place wouldn't be busy but we were wrong. Luckily people move in and out fast so we could find parking in the lot itself. Yelp On-site Wait List is open there, you cannot reserve a table or add yourself to the list online (trust me, we tried). After about 25 min wait, it was our turn and I'll start the actual review with the Service & Ambiance, Food comes last else this review will never end! Service: It wasn't fast but its understandable because of the jam packed nature of their business. The staff was great mostly but the Front Desk lady can have a better attitude. Providing good service v/s good hospitability are two different things. She could be havin a bad day but it happened twice now. Ambiance: It looked beautiful, the furniture, the decor and the overall presentation was lovely. It could be a nice place for a date as well but its a bit crowded so you will lack intimacy there! Food: The juicy part of this review, I've been there twice in 2 weeks and if that doesn't tell you how good the food is, there's nothing I can say that will convince you otherwise. Both the times we ordered the exact same thing from the menu. 1. Chicken Croffle - No words to describe this beautiful creation. Its a flaky waffle that's also a croissant. I love them individually but this form is better than both. Its so flaky and tasty, I will never go back to regular waffles again. They have it in veggie form as well, Avocado Croffle. I forgot about the chicken, how did they make it so tender? The outer crispy layer is just spicy enough to satisfy the Indian taste buds. The maple syrup gets a special shoutout, not sure how but it does feel spicy as well. 2. Florentine Eggs Benedict - Its so tasty, so smooth and just a delight to enjoy on a relaxing afternoon. The hollandaise sauce is just perfect, the eggs are cooked nicely and the muffin base is so buttery and soft yet firm at the same time. 3. Dirty Ube Lattle - Never thought I'd drink something like this, let alone enjoy it. They've created another masterpiece with this one, I thought the croffle was a crazy combination but this thing replicates the magic on the drinks side. Smooth coffee and the taste of that Ube jam just hits the right notes. All in all, I might go again in the next couple of weeks.
The smoked salmon eggs Benedict’s was tasty with the special wasabi hollandaise. We also ordered the millionaire’s bacon platter. It was worth a try but very sweet and greasy. Wait time on a Sunday morning was 30 minutes so not bad at all! Would love to come back and try the other dishes next time.
I was invited for a brunch. Excited, heard so much about this place. Parking is a little annoyance but manageable. The food are exquisite to look at and mouthwatering. It didn't disappoint. Love the presentation and the food is very tastefull. Coffee is great had 2 to 3 cups. Never happened before. Will come back again for sure. BTW I tried the loco moco
There can be a long wait on weekends if you want a preferred location (outdoor vs indoor). Tables turn over quickly. Great service. Food is delicious and presentation was fabulous.
Delicious! We got the holy cow salad and the hemmingway benedict (salmon) and both were very good. The holy cow sauce was acidic and cut the fat of the meat and complemented the sweetness well. A perfect salad in my opinion, and might be my new go to here. Parking can get difficult later in the morning, but there was no wait when we got here at 8:20. The ube latte was sweet and creamy too.
Me and my girlfriend enjoyed a delicious brunch. Our only mistake was deciding to come here on our late day. I had their famous deep fried French toast and it was tasty and plentiful. But what i enjoyed more was my partners Croffle and Chicken! A croissant waffle and juicy boneless thigh meat fried chicken. It was so good i barely used syrup! I could have that everyday i think. The bacon sampler is something to definitely try once for sure.
The place is cute and cozy, with an eclectic ambiance that made our brunch feel extra special. We ordered the Soufflegg Gardena Skillet and the French Toast Marnier — both were outstanding. The soufflegg was fluffy, flavorful, and packed with fresh veggies, while the French toast was rich and indulgent, with just the right amount of sweetness.
