    Excellent service, waiter (James) was great. Drinks were great, but the food wasn't anything special except for the bacon donut, which were delicious.

    Really enjoyed the Grilled Salmon Bowl & Swordfish (Catch of the Day). Everyone was friendly and helpful which made our meal wonderful. Also enjoyed the Powered Sugar Beignets. The outside seating area was well shaded and enough room between each table to feel comfortable.

    Food is good. Drinks are good. Received my ice coffee in a cute bear cup. Service by our waiter could of been better. He was not very attentive and didn't come back to check on us once the food was dropped. Parking plentiful and available underground. My only complaint is with the reservation system and hostess stand. We checked in for our reservation 20 min before and waited past our time. I went to hostess stand to ask and suddenly they had a table ready for us. I hate to call it a race issue, but that's exactly what if felt like. What's the point of a reservation if hostess is going to pick and choose who and when folks get sat. Also, older manager lady is kinda rude and dismissive. Didn't appreciate her not doing a table touch on our table but made it a point to table touch all other tables around us who were white. My Fiancé in the restaurant industry. Been a manager and GM at many restaurants, I know how it works. Shame on her.

    The menu is unique and the food is good. This time, our service was mediocre. We had to repeatedly ask to have our water and beverages refilled. The server was very anxious to get our order, but once he did, we were pretty much ignored. I've been there before and the service was better, so maybe this was a fluke. Their breakfast and pastry menu items are the highlights. Ribs were excellent the last time I was there.

    We had a reservation and had to wait 30 minutes to get seated which was disappointing. The food was only okay. We got our fries that were appetizers and got them after we received our main dishes and they were cold. Our waitress never stopped by to see how we were doing after we received our food. The manager came by and said hello but didn’t ask how everything was. It’s a cute vibe and the inside is really pretty but overall not worth it even with a reservation.

    It was a Mother's Day meal. They gave a rose to mom! Service was very good given the crowd size. Food was good overall as well. If you, as the name says, like maple (and bacon - including the bar drinks), this is a place for you. The venue does get quite noisy when it is full. For those sensitive to sound and/or with hearing impairment, consider going at less busy times.

    Solid food. Ordered the claim to fame chicken and donuts. A novelty I wouldn’t do again but it was tasty. Wife had the bolognese which she raved about. We arrived on Mother’s Day and were seated immediately. Our waitress was attentive and accommodating. Not much else in the mall at this point.

    Waitress was excellent. Didn’t miss a step. Everyone in my party liked their food. The check in process at the front was so chaotic. Prepare to scream at the person next to you when having a conversation.

    We had a wonderful lunch at Great Maple. Our server Cameron was very nice and attentive. My son had the lemon shrimp pasta, my husband the steak sandwich and I had the cobb wedge. All were really good and we would order them same things again. One issue was that it was very busy, as it was Sunday. You must make a reservation for Sundays, and be prepared to wait a few minutes. We had a 1:15 reservation and we were seated by 1:30. For a Sunday, we did not mind. We also did request to be outside, which is the best but you might have to wait a bit for a table to clear. It is worth the wait so bring your patience!

    The manager was AMAZING! She took such good care of us- we told her it was our first time there and she got us a great table outdoors. The lunch was leisurely and no one pressured us when 2 of the party were late. We enjoyed coffee, doughnuts, the shrimp biscuit benedict was to die for. Great bacon. Great brunch spot! Thanks for a fun morning!
