    I had an absolutely amazing experience at Great Maple! From the moment I checked in on my phone, I was immediately invited to my table—such a smooth and welcoming start. The service was exceptional, with staff being attentive and professional throughout. The food was delicious, and I highly recommend this spot for a brunch.

    This place just gets better. My late husband discovered it when we first moved to San Diego 8 years ago. I just can't say enough good things about the food -- it's noisy for sure but hey -- I can put up with that!! What a gem!!! Success has only made it better.

    Great Maple never disappoints. There is something on their menu everyone can enjoy. We ordered the Pistachio Brie, Tuileries Turkey Burger and the Street tacos. Everything was delicious, but had to take a box home because you really get your moneys worth in portion size here. We were lucky enough to get our same server, who we both enjoyed both times. Thank you Sabria, thanks for remembering the onions!! This place is always right on time with seating people with reservations!

    We were greeted by a polite gentleman and were seated quickly. Our waiter, George, was polite and very informative with the menu. Started with fried calamari. The best I’ve had by far. I had the Friday prime rib special. The meal was spectacular. Meat was cooked to order. Mashed potatoes were buttery smooth. The asparagus was crunchy and seasoned well. My husband had the braised ribs with mashed potatoes. Ribs were tender off the bone. Bbq sauce was slightly sweet and savory. He topped his meal off with a lemon drop cocktail, an old fashion whiskey, and an Irish mule. All were excellent drinks. We ended the night with a delicious slice of key lime pie. This was a dessert pleaser. Smooth and silky filling with whip cream and perfectly baked crust. I was pleasantly surprised by our waiter when he gave me a little berry and granola crumble for my bday celebration. The restaurant was clean and inviting. Our first time there and definitely won’t be our last. This restaurant left a great impression for us.

    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!
