This brunch restaurant is known for their bacon. It was a great spot to enjoy a brunch with friends with high prices but big portions and good food. There was a bit of a wait when we came here on a Saturday at noon, but the line moved quickly. Service was quite good as they kept filling our waters extremely fast. I got the SM Omurice, and it was really tasty. Big portion that left me feeling very full with a really good sauce. I loved the rice and the egg. My friend got the Big Hip, and we shared her deep fried French toast which tasted like a funnel cake. I also tried the bacon, and it was very tasty. This is coming from someone who doesn't really like bacon. I loved the maple flavour. A small amount of bacon was very expensive though. read more

My family and I came here a few times before and each time we come we are never disappointed. The restaurant is always very busy, but even though it is busy we are always seated in a timely manner. The restaurant is clean and well kept. Great for breakfast, brunch, and lunch. Food always taste spectacular and delicious. One thing that has changed is the Big Hip dish, I remember years ago it was slightly bigger. Besides that we always loved how they always cooked their poached egg to perfection. The hollandaise sauce is always delicious and yummy. Come give this place a try if you are ever in or around the area. read more

Can't go wrong with brunch here! It's an SF staple and you may need to wait a bit in line on a weekend, but the overall ambiance and food definitely will not disappoint! Millionaire's Bacon (3/5): This was the most underwhelming thing that we got. I know that it's really popular and what they're known for, but to me it's just really thick bacon. Oscar Benedict (4/5): I'm only giving it a 4 because of how expensive it is, but it's a very good and solid Benedict and the crab tasted very fresh. The potatoes on the side were crisp as well, all-in-all and very good and complete entree to get. If you're looking for a vibey spot for a good and solid brunch, then I really don't think you can go wrong here! But then again, brunch is pretty hard to mess up imo. read more

* Service: Asked for ice water and got a very obvious look of annoyance from the server. It made a completely normal request feel like I was negotiating the entire menu. * Food: For a $20+ egg dish, tomatoes were pale, watery and flavorless. Premium brunch prices should come with produce that tastes like produce. read more

My go-to bottomless brunch spot in SF!! The wait is not too long (maybe 20-30 minutes maximum) even on nice weekend mornings. You can also sit outside, which is so enjoyable during the summer. The service is extremely quick, and we never had to wait long before our server was back asking for our next round, which is exactly how bottomless is supposed to work!! The food is pretty good Korean fusion brunch, my personal favorite is the bulgogi omelette but the french toast is delicious too! I really like how they don't enforce a separate food order per person policy, so you can share the food amongst your group and leave space for the bottomless mimosas! read more

Busy breakfast spot known for their brown-sugar-glazed "millionaire's bacon." located near Japantown in San Francisco. Street parking only and no reservation accepted. We came here on a Sunday morning and of course the line is wrapped around the building. It's not as bad as it looks and moved quicker than I expected. It was 4 of us and we wanted to sit inside so that might have added some extra wait time. Once we are seated, I feel like I got wrapped in a tornado! Waiter is very attentive, food comes out fast, and empty plates are cleared right away. If you're looking for a lazy slow Sunday morning, this is NOT the place. Of course, we had to order the "Millionaire's Bacon Sample Platter" to share. It comes with 4 pieces (Original, Citron, Cinnamon and Rosemary). I mean it's thick bacon - they are all delicious. The Citron stood out to me. I like that hint of orange and sea salt goodness. This is a must try! I couldn't help it and got the "Big Hip" - HAHAHA. It's their famous deep-fried French toast. OMG, it's too good and it went straight to my hips. It's crunchy outside and fluffy inside. The service is good and definitely quick. I do feel a bit rush and I don't want to be that person/group to hold up the table. Keep that in mind if you are looking for a slower pace dining experience. read more

Overall great brunch place! Morning tacos were loaded and delicious as I loved the combo of avocado, egg, bacon, and chicken mango sausage. However, I couldn't quite taste the mango flavor. The Asparagus omelette was also tasty and heavier in flavor with a creamy sauce. The sweet maple bacon paired well with the asparagus. The orange juice was sweet and slightly tangy. I came here for a late Monday brunch and there was no wait for a party of 2. The restaurant had a clean design with marble tables. Good atmosphere for catching up with friends over a meal! read more

Arrived around 11:30 am on a Saturday and the line was about 20 people deep. The wait was only 15 minutes but we were seated outside in the direct sunlight. Next time I'm sitting inside where the vibe is more relaxed and comfortable. We The servers were friendly and we were served pretty quickly - considering it was pretty busy. The French toast was deep fried and crispy on the outside and savory on the inside. The bacon and eggs were prepared perfectly as ordered and the toast was nicely buttered. Surprisingly the coffee was exceptionally good too! Was a good overall experience but little pricey for a simple breakfast in the direct sunlight! read more

One of my favorite brunch spots and a Bay Area staple! What I Ordered: * Ube Martini (New!) * Omurice * Millionaire's Bacon They have a seasonal martini collection for the summer, which we ordered the refreshingly sweet Ube Martini! If you are craving savory short rib-eye with a breakfast spin like potatoes and eggs, then order the Omurice. Finally, the Millionaire's Bacon comes with 4 different types of Bacon: Sea Salt Citron, the Original, Cinnamon (the best one) and Rosemary. The service was super fast and multiple servers checked in on us through out the meal with water refills and clean up. Definitely check out their bottomless mimosas on the weekend for brunch with friends! read more

Sweet Maple has been recommended to me a few times, so we finally decided to give it a try. My first impression was a little confusing. When we arrived, there wasn't anyone waiting in the designated queue area, so we walked in and checked in with the host. He then asked us to go back outside and get behind a group that had arrived after us. Although I was slightly frustrated the experience turned around. Our server was friendly, attentive, and had some great recommendations that helped us navigate the menu. We started with the Millionaire's Bacon sampler, which let us try all four versions: Citron (orange and sea salt), Original, Cinnamon (chipotle and sweet cinnamon), and Rosemary (rosemary and pepper). The bacon is thick-cut, sweet, smoky, and packed with flavor. While they were all good, the Cinnamon was my favorite. I literally couldn't stop eating any of the flavors! We shared The Francis Soufflegg Skillet, loaded with chicken mango sausage, bacon, and scallions, and served with toast and tri-colored potatoes. The eggs were light and fluffy, and the combination of the sweet-savory chicken mango sausage with the smoky bacon worked really well. The tri colored potatoes were light, crispy, perfectly seasoned, and some of the better breakfast potatoes I've had in a while. We shared a side of the fried French toast. It was good, but a little on the dry side. After seeing the regular French toast come out to other tables, we'd probably order that instead. Fun spot with great food. We will be back especially when friends and family are in town. read more

It's a beautiful restaurant. That's a very appealing feature if you're just coming in off the street The staff are really nice. The food is good. Portions dainty.Pancakes aren't bad. The millionaires bacon is outrageously expensive but tasty. I recommend getting it at least once in your life, but I have to say the last time I was there sitting in front of this sign really did not do much for my appetite. I hope they will remove it... there must be a better way to get this message across to the people going crazy with the mimosas. read more

Don't let the line discourage you. I only waited about 20ish minutes to get a table on a Saturday even though the line looked pretty long; they have plenty of seating, inside and outdoor. The best part of this place for me is the atmosphere and their nice menu selection. I think the food is good, but not anything superior to other popular brunch spots. It's a good place for people to gather and grab a bite to eat. :) read more

Tried the ribeye omurice at Kitchen Story and it's definitely one of the more unique brunch dishes I've had. The omurice itself was super soft and creamy, with that perfectly runny egg on top that makes the dish. The ribeye added a nice savory touch and was fairly tender, though a few bites were a little chewier than expected. Flavor-wise, it leans on the richer side, so it can get a bit heavy toward the end, but overall still really satisfying. Portion size is solid--definitely something you could share if you're not super hungry. Service was friendly and the place has a lively brunch vibe, though it can get busy and a little loud. read more

Last minute labor day brunch plans, and I couldn't have picked a better place. There was a non stop line at the door but the service is so quick and attentive at the same time. I ordered the Fried French Toast as a meal that came with two eggs and sausage, it was a lot more than I had expected. There are lots of indoor tables and bar seatings available inside. I couldn't keep my eyes off of everyone else's plates as everything looked great as my plate definitely matched the presentation, look forward to going back and trying more on the menu. read more

The florentine eggs benedict was the best I've ever had, and that's coming from an eggs benny enthusiast!!!! Same with the mocha, which is also my go-to latte!!! My friend had me try some of his Millionaire's bacon and it was sooo good! We bought some to-go to give our other friend, and even a day later, he really liked it too! I would recommend the candy bacon just because my friend said it's crispier, but if you prefer slightly softer on your teeth, get the Millionaire's bacon :) Service was very pleasant! Our waitress recommended the mocha latte, it was a lovely choice! I had asked between that or the matcha (which my friend ended up getting), and the barista brought out two matcha lattes. We weren't sure if we misheard her rec, so we didn't say anything, plus the matcha was my other choice anyways, but our waitress noticed and brought over a mocha latte. She gave us the other matcha latte for free, saying the barista made a mistake (though we hadn't minded) There was also no wait at peak breakfast/brunch, but that could be because we came on a Thursday. It was still very busy though read more

A classic sf brunch experience. I heard about this place around 2015(?) ishhh because of their bacon and have been a few times. But.... I wanted to post these aesthetic pictures and food since I don't think I ever did before. There's always a line out the door but the wait was relatively short for a weekend. There were so many options but I chose what my eyes saw and everyone had this dish. It was going to be a long day so why not start it with a drink. Their drinks were amazing and the food was devoured. The place was full but it was still easy to yap and people watch. Lowkey though, the prices of brunch has gotten so expensive but it's relatively in the ballpark in comparison. That's just a small vent. read more

This morning I visited Sweet Maple for brunch with high expectations. I ordered the New York steak medium rare, but unfortunately it was served medium. The presentation was good, but when it comes to steak, temperature is everything, and I specifically did not order medium. When the server came to remove the plate, my dog barked unexpectedly, which startled him and caused coffee to spill onto the table. It was an awkward moment, but the staff handled it professionally and remained attentive throughout. The overall service was good and friendly, and the waiting time was pretty standard for a brunch spot. The décor is simple and basic, nothing particularly memorable, but comfortable enough. I also ordered a Nutella crepe, and here's where I was truly disappointed. It wasn't Nutella.. it tasted like regular chocolate spread. And as someone who considers herself a Nutella connoisseur, I can tell the difference immediately. If you advertise Nutella, it should be Nutella. Overall, it was a decent experience with some details that could definitely be improved. I would give it another chance, hoping next time the steak temperature and the "Nutella" live up to expectations. read more

One of my favorite brunch spots in the city because of the variety of options you always have on the menu, and I love seeing what specialty items they'll have each time I go! The ube latte tasted so yummy, and of course the pancakes were just so light and fluffy. We came around 1pm on a Friday and were seated right away. Service was very quick from there. I've come for bottomless before too and can highly recommend! The Saturday energy on their outdoor patio is so nice, and they have a variety of fun mimosa flavors to choose from. read more

Went for breakfast last Friday morning... There were 3 of us for breakfast. We arrived at the restaurant around 9:00 and there was already a line. We waited for 20 - 30 minutes and got a table! I ordered the scrambled eggs with shrimp, capers and spinach, potatoes and sourdough toast. coffee too. the eggs were great, really creamy. The shrimp were nicely cooked with just the right amount of capers and spinach. My issue was with the potatoes. I really like crispy hashbrowns. Must be a Midwest thing because nobody in California has them. What I found to be most common are cubed potatoes, probably boiled first and then deep fried. I really don't like potatoes with the skins still on them. I worked in many restaurants, and I know that nobody cleans the potato skins as well as one would in their own home. Kind of a turn off for me. Anyway, the coffee was pretty good. My dining partners had bacon and eggs and the other had pancakes (I think). 2 coffees and 1 iced tea. The bill came to something like $120.00. The food was really good (except for the potatoes), but the price??? I'd go back, but wow! read more

Last day in SF well spent. We got to Sweet Maple for Sunday brunch around 10:30 and were seated within 15-20 minutes. So if you want to beat the rush we saw as we left, earlier is better. The food here is an absolutely amazing traditional breakfast/Asian food fusion you would never expect. We tried a number of dishes and everyone LOVED their dishes. The ube martini is a must try. My only note, is that this is a fairly large and busy restroom serving copious amounts of mimosas with only two toilets... The lines can get quite long and we had a table right near the bathroom so we consistently had people kind of just awkwardly standing near us. read more

Sweet Maple is an SF brunch staple for me. There is always a line outside, and there is absolutely a reason for it. The team keeps everything moving so smoothly that the wait never feels stressful, even during peak hours. Once you sit down, the food comes out quickly and everything tastes incredibly fresh. I always look forward to the potato medley because it is crispy, flavorful, and honestly one of my favorite sides in the city. Their espresso martinis are another must for me. They are balanced, smooth, and pair perfectly with a big brunch spread. Every dish I have tried so far has been consistently delicious, and you can tell they take a lot of pride in the quality of the ingredients. The service is warm, the space is lively without feeling chaotic, and it just has that reliable comfort that makes you want to return again and again. Sweet Maple never disappoints, and every time I go it reminds me why the line outside is always worth it. read more

Wow! I am so glad we found this gem. We went there for brunch and we were second in line. We were so lucky to be able to get in so quickly because outside was so cold. During the meal, the line gotten so long. They have so many food selection!! But the shin ramen fried rice caught my eye!! That tasted so good! The seasoning was perfect balance with the spiciness. They added their signature maple bacon and an egg! That's a must! I would say it's better for lunch or dinner than breakfast!! But so worth it! It's such a big portion I couldn't finish it tho sadly. My husband got a sandwich it's pretty good too. I got an ube latte and it tasted rich ube flavor but the bottom has some sandy texture made me coughed a bit. Overall, I will come back when we visit again! read more

The Millionaire's Bacon was the clear standout, with that sweet-spicy glaze and a thicker cut than regular breakfast bacon.

Food was tasty, hot, and portions exceptable. I ordered the pancakes, scrambled eggs, bacon and sourdough toast. Couldn't stop eating. However, the sourdough toast was too thin and dry. It would have been better to separated with parchment paper, rather than wrapped in foil. Probably would not have been too noticeable if the other items weren't so exceptional. read more

Their millionaires bacon is what I come here for! So good. 4 pieces of different flavored bacon, and may not seem like a big deal or enough to feed a few of you, but those 4 pieces were enough for me and two other adults.

If you're looking for something different to try, this would be a great spot to come to. read more

I wouldn't go here all the time because of the long line and prices, but it's worth a try. I had the pimped ramen cup fried rice and thankfully it's not too spicy. The egg yolk, fried rice and bits of ramen and bacon actually went together really well. Their millionaire's bacon is the thickest slice of bacon I've ever had--thick, tender, and hint of smokey and sweet. I recommend getting a dish that includes a slice of bacon so you can try it! Might be the more affordable option instead of getting the sample platter. A fun brunch place and despite it being super busy, the service was excellent, attentive, and fast. read more

My friends and I came to Sweet Maple and had a pretty uncomfortable experience. We were there for about two hours, and throughout our meal, the employees kept staring at us, which made us feel like they thought we were going to leave without paying. When we finished eating, my friend offered to pay for all of us. Before she tapped her card, she told the waitress that she didn't have enough money to cover the full amount. The waitress still had her tap the card, and the payment ended up taking the money she had even though she had already explained the situation. Overall, we felt uncomfortable and disappointed with how we were treated. I hope management can look into what happened and make sure customers are treated with more respect. read more

Very bustling and busy brunch spot! There is indoor and outdoor seating available. Their bottomless mimosas are available before 2:00pm, which means as long as you get seated before that time it is applicable. They have different flavors of mimosas and will bring out a small pitcher for a refill of each flavor. I got the mushroom melt sandwich. I personally got tired of eating straight mushroom so I did not end of finishing it, and wish I picked a different sandwich. However, the bread is very good and the salad on the side has a nice dressing. read more

Here's the thing, I don't mind a 20-30$ meal but if i'm paying 27$ for eggs it better be darn good. In my opinion, this place is overpriced. Maybe I ordered the wrong thing idk but I thought my souflay was bland, and to add walnuts and bananas to my french toast I was charged extra 5$. Aside from that they have in very small font an automatic gratuity if it is 5 or more people. Respectfully 5 people is not a large party. Our table was 5 ppl and actually ordered 3 dishes because people were sharing one entree and one didn't eat. We were automatically charged 20% gratuity. I believe charging 20% automatic gratuity for that is a scam. I will not be coming back. I mistook this place for the location in palo alto just know they are different owners! read more
