    Delicious brunch! I had the lavender mimosa (amazing) and the smoked salmon toast. Everything tasted great. It was busy on Sunday morning for brunch, but we ever felt rushed. The only issue is parking, but I would definitely go back.

    Great Maple is one of our favorite brunch restaurants. The food is always delicious, there is a great variety of beverages and the service is outstanding. We split an order of the maple bacon doughnuts as an “appetizer” and they were phenomenal.

    Great brunch place. Parking is minimal, but we got lucky. Portions were good. We will be going back and hopefully find a spot.

    Skip it. Overrated, crowded, expensive. Unless that’s your jam.

    The food was delicious. This is the spot to “Go-To” on Friday nights for their Prime Rib. Best looking Prime Rib I have seen in a while. My wife and her friend absolutely loved it. Recommended with Au-Juis on the side. I had their Salted Carmel Ribs and they were outstanding. Josh and Leslie were terrific. The Key Lime Pie was also amazing.
