    Solid brunch spot in the South Bay. I went here with my family on a Sunday afternoon. Expect a long wait. Very small parking lot, I recommend parking at the next plaza over if there isn't any parking avail. The restaurant is pretty small, but the ambiance is aesthetically cute and clean-looking. There is indoor and outdoor seating. The dishes we got were; - French Toast with a side of scrambled eggs - Millionare's Bacon Sampler - Francis Skillet - Hemingway Benedict - Blueberry Mochi Waffles The Millionare's bacon sampler was rlly good, I can see why Sweet Maple is famous for it. It was a good balance of the candied and savory taste. I would order this again to share. The other dishes were good too, but nothing special. I did enjoy the brussel potato medley on the side, which was unique compared to other brunch spots. Overall, good brunch spot, will be back again

    Overall: 4.5/5 This place has been on my to-go list for awhile and I finally get to try it. Went during peak lunchtime, reservations are only in-person, and I waited about 40 minutes to be seated. They have a diverse menu with several options to choose from. Food came out quickly despite it being busy. They have seating indoors and outdoors. I wish the staff told us about the 20% gratuity fee in the beginning, so the check was very surprising. Food: - Loco Moco: juicy meat, sauce is similar to a sweet BBQ taste - Savory & Francis Souffle Egg: favorite (also because I love eggs), very fluffy and savory, bacon complements it well but it can be a bit salty, some of the potatoes are also salty - Vermont Cheese Burger: requested medium, meat is juicy, thick and filling, fries are well-seasoned and crispy

    Went on a Monday morning thinking it would not be packed, but I was wrong. The whole place was busy. We got seated right away since it was only two of us. Also, we found parking right away since they have plenty of parking around the building. The host did not seem happy to be working on a Monday. She asked for how many and that's it. She had this "ugh" face on. I got the matcha waffles and they were too crispy for my liking, but the matcha was good. It was enough matcha for the waffles. My husband got one of the Benedicts and the dish was good. For the drinks, I did not like how we got them after the food was served so I felt rushed drinking my cocktail. The espresso shakerato was delicious. The watermelon Fizz, my husband liked it and we liked how it had fresh watermelon on top. Definitely will come back to try other dishes and drinks.

    You would think a IG worthy breakfast spot would be overrated or not live up to the hype based on their presentation... let me tell you Sweet Maple nails their presentation and quality of food. I had an amazing time try Sweet Maple with my family. Starting off with parking, its going to be tough so you might need to go to neighborhood behind. Seating we waited about 20-30 minutes on a Sunday morning. Their menu has so many food options to try and we had such a hard time figuring out what to get. It took the whole wait time for us to decide, I got the Chicken Croffle and it was huge! Croffle was a great doughy texture to compliment the fried chicken. I tried my Uncle's French toast and it was outstanding, it was thick cut slice and crisp as well. We all split the matcha mochi waffle and it was okay, Im not big into matcha and it felt like a dessert. I wouldn't recommend for an actual meal. Lastly for their ambience, it was vibrant and sleek in their. The tableware felt fancy and modern. I don't know how to call the aesthetic but I would 100% go back and take more family and friends.

    It's been a while I have been meaning to try Sweet Maple and finally got the chance to go for it on a random Friday. The place was packed both indoor and outdoors and we put our name on the wait-list. The outdoors was a bit chilly so we opted for indoors. I have to say the service was top notch and very quick..this is not one of those places where the servers take their time to come over to take your order etc. Even though it was super busy, they attended to us promptly which I loved. Once we got the menus there were so many amazing options to pick from. I went with the Hemingway and my husband got the omurice. The omurice was diff from what I was expecting.. I was hoping for the egg to open up like the videos I have seen from Japan but this was a simple egg on top of rice. They also did sub the beef with mango chicken sausage which was great for us. The Hemingway benidict was good too. The colorful plate was great to look at.. almost too many potatoes for me but I could easily share that. I am very glad I discovered a nice brunch place with so many options. I am definitely coming back here with friends and family.

    Great experience here at sweet maples. Food was so delicious and fresh and still came out at a decent time. Service was excellent! Very accommodating for gluten free accommodation for those with celiac disease/ severe gluten restriction.

    Very fast and kind service at Sweet Maple that gets very busy during peak times on the weekend! This became one of my favorite places to have brunch in SF for their Asian flavor cuisine and wide options. I also must highlight the aesthetic of both the restaurant and meal items. 5/5 - Tornado Galbi Omurice - Savory and filling! The galbi is well-portioned with the rice provided, and the tornado egg on top of the rice made the whole dish look super put together and aesthetic. Great to share with plenty of sauce and perfect seasoning. If you want a hearty, savory dish for brunch, definitely check this one out! 5/5 Matcha Moffle - Not too sweet and perfectly cooked to be chewy and crunchy at the same time. The matcha flavor is present without being too overpowering, and the cream on the side makes each bite super satisfying. This dish is also great to share, and I can only wish we had 3 waffles for this meal!

    dirty ube latte
    Claudia L.

    One of my go-to brunch spots! Sweet Maple is extremely popular and can get crowded, so be wary. Parking by this location is decently limited, so if it's a crowded day, you might have to park nearby on the street. Inside is bright and beautifully decorated, with sunlight coming in through the windows. We were luckily seated right by them, so we got to bathe in the sunlight. I ordered the dirty ube latte, french toast, and scrambled eggs. The french toast was delicious with the perfect crisp and softness to it and the bacon was perfectly cooked for me. I probably wouldn't order the dirty ube latte again, solely for the price point, but other than that, all the food was a win in my book.

    Matcha Moffles (2 pieces) with strawberries on top

    Final Thoughts: 4.00/5 This place technically should have been on my to-go list a while ago, but my friends had a really poor experience with this place, so I just never wanted to go. My friends did want to go here for brunch and so this opportunity for me to try it just came up. There was a little wait when we got there on a Saturday afternoon. I typically find that these places do get somewhat more crowded during these times because of the hype and optimal brunch times. Will vary depending on the day and time and perhaps by luck. Overall, I seemed to have a better experience than my other friends did. The food and drinks we got today were quite good. Our service was great and overall experience will be a 4 star today. Food: Tornado Galbi Omurice: 4.0/5 This was my choice today. It came with a galbi and vegetable fried rice base, scrambled eggs tornadoed on top, cherry peppers, galbi for protein, and the demi-glaze all around. The bulgogi is very tender and has a lot of flavor to it. While the vegetable rice does add another component to it, I personally would have preferred white rice with the vegetables on the side or something similar. This is just a personal preference. I just like the simplicity of an omurice dish with white rice though. The egg was nicely done. It's a very thin layer of egg, which I personally really like. It incorporates well into each bite. Demi-glaze was also quite umami, there's a nice balance of sweetness to it, which I enjoyed. Loco Moco: 4.0/5 This was my friend's dish and I was able try it today. The dish has a wagyu beef cutlet, sauted kimchi, bell peppers, mushrooms, onions, egg, and rice with gravy. The beef was juicy and the flavor was overall good. This was also something I contemplated to get. Very umami, some sweetness and a bit of a kick and acidity from the kimchi. Side of Fries: 4.2/5 We ordered a side of fries and these are really good. Their fried potatoes in general are really good because it's a nice crunch on the outside with some potato and body on the inside. This paired so well with their dipping sauce. Appears to be an aioli of sorts, but no one quote me on that. Matcha Moffle: 4.2/5 This is their matcha mochi waffle. The plate comes with two waffles and strawberries on top for some freshness. The texture of a mochi waffle is always my favorite because it's slightly chewy on the inside and crispy on the outside. The matcha flavor does come through and the matcha cream on the side gives it that additional kick of matcha. It doesn't need syrup or anything, but you can ask for it if you have a sweet tooth. My one minute note is the garnish. We could take this off, but the mint leaf just looked wilted on the hot waffle and was unappealing to have on that pretty plate of waffles. Drink: Matcha Paradise: 4.0/5 This drink is essentially a coconut water base with matcha cream on top. The sweetness was nice and it was really refreshing. The cream is thick, but incorporates well into the drink. My one note is that the matcha isn't too strong and I would have loved a deeper flavor for it. Otherwise, this drink is really refreshing. Sweetness was actually also quite good. --------- Quality: Their food seems alright. The dishes came out hot and crispy, so they appear to be made to order. The sweet potatoes were especially crispy and very delightful to bite into. The color of the matcha appears lighter and somewhat more oxidized to me, so I'm not sure what kind of matcha is used for this drink. My preference is a rich ceremonial grade matcha, which has a different color that is more bright and vibrant than this. Price: $$ -- $$$ The prices are definitely on the higher end. Price ranges will be between $15 to $25 with some outliers. Their portion sizes do appear of optimal size. I wasn't able to finish my food (as I never do), but it was a large enough portion. Given the food item though, some of these items can be considered more expensive than your average brunch spot. Service: Delightful Our servers were actually quite nice. There is one main person that helps you, but another waiter did come to serve us while we were trying to flag them down. This seems to be the expectation, but it's not usually the case sometimes. Food comes out within ample time and they do check on you. Ambiance: Cozy Brunch Vibes They have an indoors and outdoors seating area with tents for shade. The interior does look quite packed with tables. Very simple and modern interior though. Nothing fancy, but it does give café and brunch vibes. Location/Parking: Could be better. This place is located right at the corner of S. Blaney Avenue and Stevens Creek Blvd. It is located in it's own corner, which is nice. The parking is interesting though. You could literally just drive right in from the street to one of it's parking spots though, which is not ideal because getting out can be a little harder. They have spots all around, but very limited. Will say that this comes down to luck.

    Highlights: Good service - accommodating of stroller Good portion size Food: Blackstone Loco moco Blackstone Bacon was amazing! Portions were generous. Loco moco - as advertised, it had a kick, not a lot but more than the average loco moco. The gravy had a deep and maybe a slight tang which kept it lighter. Complemented the hearty sized beef patty. Portions were generous -- not just the rice but the meat. Ambiance/service: Wednesday around 8:30am, it wasn't very crowded but there were more ppl than I was expecting. I had called ahead to make sure it was fine to bring a stroller for the indoor seating. It was and they were okay with us sitting near the kitchen door though I asked for a table where the stroller was less in the way. They were fine with the table move since all we had were the waters at that point.

    Chicken croffle, Bacon and chicken egg soufflé
    Debbie N.

    I love the atmosphere here. Very chill and calm place for a slow morning. Love their little table decor also. Service can feel a bit rushed since they try to take your plate away as soon as you finish. My friend plate was touched before she even finish her. Now about the food. I think the food are great but can be a bit more flavorful. I ended up adding a bunch of chalula onto my dish to get some flavor. However I still thing they are worth a try, everyone taste are different.

    Bacon & scrambled egg
    Sherilyn R.

    Delicious Millionaire's Bacon! I love this with their salad! Came around Friday 1:15PM. Still quite busy. It wasn't too busy that every single table was taken and luckily we got parking. Servers are quick, polite and we got our drinks right away. I preferred the Milionaire's Bacon over the Millionaire's Candy. Felt like it had more substance and depth in flavor. I wasn't too impressed with the Holy Cow Salad. Rating 3/5. The sliced galbi did not taste good, tasted weirdly overcooked and under flavored. Everything else taste great! What saved it was the Millionaire's Bacon with the salad which made it taste wayyy better. And the additional scramble egg was a solid too. Matcha Latte was just right, it isn't the best I ever tasted but it fulfilled my cravings for the time being. Plenty of space inside for various side groups. Great for singles, couples and families! Parking? Yes; parking lot, it might get too full at peak time so there is probably some other street parking nearby. Restroom? Yes; wheelchair & handicap may need some assistance depending on stall availability.

    Chicken croffle
    Hannah C.

    A delicious brunch spot with such unique dishes. I visited on a Saturday morning and waited around 30 minutes. If you're visiting on a weekend for brunch, be prepared for a bit of a wait. Because it was so busy, there wasn't any parking in the nearby parking lot available. However, there's a fair amount of neighborhood parking around. The interior of the store is decorated beautifully, and there's also a lot of outdoor seating. The menu looked fantastic. There were some really unique options, like a matcha moffle, morning Thai cioppino, and their famous millionaire's bacon. I tried the chicken croffle, which was genuinely superb. The croffle was perfectly sweet and flaky. It paired well with a spicy honey maple syrup and fresh fruit. The chicken was fried to perfection, still piping hot when served. The sweet and savory combination made for the ideal brunch! This place isn't the cheapest, but the tasty dishes are well worth the price. I'm excited to visit again and try more dishes!

The hostess was very friendly and showed us to our table. We had a table inside, which was an intimate upscale casual area with a bar. We ordered the stuffed mushrooms for a starter. It was so hard to pick one because everything on the menu sounds so good. Alas, I have a small appetite. The mushrooms were very tasty and a nice start to our meal. For entrees, we had the halibut and prime filet with a side of broccolini. Everything was cooked perfectly and was delicious. Drinks are on the pricey side- I had a Hero Old Fashioned and the Taylor Made, $20 each. They were nicely crafted, so worth the price. They brought out a Carmel Popcorn Sundae for my husband's birthday and even gave him a birthday card which I thought was a nice touch. Service was slow and steady. We had ample time to enjoy our food without feeling rushed, but never felt like our server forgot about us. We spent about 2 hours for dinner. Probably not a place to go if you're in a hurry. I'm eager to return and try some more of the starters. It's the kind of place I'd love to take out of town guests - high quality fine dining in a casual and relaxed environment.

The restaurant had a nice visual ambience, but also felt casual as there was a lot of chatter, which isn't a bad thing depending on what you're looking for. Our waiter was especially friendly and helped us decide what to order. I really wish I could remember his name, as I'm posting this a bit late, but he was a huge reason why we had a great experience! Here's a quick rating on the food itself: Stuffed mushrooms (3.5/5): This was recommended by the waiter as a favorite among patrons. The mushrooms weren't bad or anything, but for some reason, it gave me combination pizza vibes that I wasn't expecting. It was good, but I wouldn't go out of my way to order it again personally. Bone-in ribeye (5/5): an amazing cut that was cooked perfectly. Exactly what you would expect from a good steakhouse. The compound butter was fantastic! Bone-in apricot glazed pork chop (3.5/5): this one may hit different for different folks. The pork was perfectly cooked and juicy, but the apricot glaze was definitely a little too sweet for our palettes. If you're looking for something more savory, I might try something else. But hey, sweet might be your thing too! Caramel popcorn sundae (4.5/5): we got this one complimentary for being our special day, which was a really nice surprise! And it was a full serving! This one was obviously sweet, but surprisingly more subdued than it sounds, which was really nice! Overall, it was truly a memorable night with great food. And though some things didn't quite work for our palettes, I can totally see that it may for others--so that didn't impact my ratings because they were still good--just not for us. That said, the care that we received on our anniversary was what truly made me land on a 5/5 rating. Definitely coming back for future special occasions!
