This place is worth the wait! Was scared when we saw a long line, but it moves fairly quickly especially if you're okay sitting outside. Everything on the menu looked so good so we got a bunch of things to share - recommend doing this! Our favorites were the deep fried French toast and the ramen. Highly recommend! Also if you have more than 2 people, definitely try the millionaires bacon sampler, we all had different favorites. The service was wonderful with quick food and then always filling our waters. Cute and homie feel. Very close to japantown! read more

Really good food for brunch and it does get busy if there's a party of 3 or more. Sunday of course is the busiest. The service was fast, easy and nice! There's no waitlist. You just go in line and they'll try to seat you as fast as they can. We luckily didn't feel rushed when seated and finally ate. Somewhat expensive but worth every penny read more

I forgot to take photos of each dish, but I wanna say it's really just average, not worth the hype. I have tried each dish. I would say that I like the Shin Ramen flavored fried rice was the most creative and tasty. All other typical American dishes are really just alight, and the special sweet bacons were not my cup of tea. People here are quick and nice. It's a busy place. I understand. Most importantly, they are so expensive. What we ordered on the table rounded up to $175 including tips. read more

OK, went to this restaurant that has ever changing moods. It was on the weekend and of course there was a line down the block. I've seen in previous reviews that the line goes pretty fast. I noticed that this line did not move very fast; I think because they were trying to lineup the exact amount of peeps to the table. I think this really slows them down. I viewed 4 sometimes 5 empty tables before I realize what they were doing. This bothered me. I felt this was very one-sided for the business and not for the customers which should be somewhere in between. Someone came out to manage the line and get the number of peeps in each group. They have a counter which was pretty wide open, but they require that you stand in line still. My friend and I are big fans of the millionaires bacon. She's richer than I am so she buys the whole platter. I got a millionaires egg sandwich that was just so good. I secretly think my friend was envious of my millionaires (1/2 the cost) sandwich. But it really didn't matter since we always split the bill in half. IDK; maybe we should go Dutch.~ JK . Of course we got our mimosas. They are the best here at this location; compared to Cupertino location, anyway. Such a great breakfast. The staff is friendly and top-notch. There is a manager that is so friendly & sometimes has time for a conversation about the diner. He runs a tight ship effortlessly; almost Zen-like. The owner is there to oversee. Great experience this time. This is our third time visiting Sweet Maple. Twice at this location and once in Cupertino; which was a huge disappointment. Since this is my neck of the woods, I think I might try the Palo Alto location. This may be a franchise and that's why there's so many differences in the locations as far as food, drink and ambience. For instance, they have the Belgian waffles with blueberries in Cupertino, but not in San Francisco, which was OK because that millionaire sandwich was heaven. read more

Sweet maple is serving up some delicious food. Expect a wait on the weekend after 10a. There was no line prior to that. They were kind enough to seat us even before our full party arrived, and we all really enjoyed our food. Service continued to be wonderful throughout the meal. Benedicts - each Benedict I've tried here is so tasty. Hollandaise is perfect and even the veggie (florentine) version has lots of flavor. For me the eggs could be cooked a minute longer (they serve their whites slightly runny) but overall it's great. House potatoes - need to give a shoutout here. They are doing some black magic with these potatoes. It's creamy to the point of mashed potatoes on the inside with a perfect soft crisp on the exterior. YUM. Soufflegg - a fun and unique menu item that we all appreciated. Nice fluffy egg reminiscent of Korean steamed eggs. One note - they have a limit of 2 credit cards when splitting the bill. read more

Hell yeah !!! We have never came here and not enjoyed the food and service! No this is not a place you go to everyday due to it being pricey ( but worth it). When you in the area and want to treat yourself or impress others, go to sweet maple !! Everything is fresh and seasoned well. Get that damn bacon!!!!! Honestly order anything and you will be happy!!!!! They coffee good as fuck too!!!!!!!! read more

2 stars is being generous. Place was packed with a line outside so people like it. My eggs soufflé breakfast was bland with a capital B. I ate half after drenching it in ketchup to add a taste. Brutal. Service was great. Food was that bad. I just won't be going back. 45 bucks to boot with coffee. Had to write the review it was that disappointing. read more

Love Love Love the breakfast and the service Went here for a taste of both their millionaire bacon and the French Toast. This place did not disappoint. I was pleased with the tasty drinks that obviously cared about presentation and taste. I loved the mocha and my daughter enjoyed the tasty ube with a cute butterfly design on top. The hip french toast and marnier french toast were amazing SO GOOD . The place is clean and spacey with great decor and ambiance. I will be making sure to come back often when I am in SF. Putting this on my faves for breakfast. read more

The staff was nice, Wait is very long, vibe is nice, food "ok" price - WAY TOO MUCH. A lot going on and a bit loud for my taste.

Really great brunch spot I love going to with friends to catch up. The line is usually long, but it's totally worth it once you get in. The French toast is a must try and the food is consistently delicious. It's a perfect place for a relaxed, lively weekend vibe read more

Be prepared for: -the wait. Stand outside and know that the many parties with two people will be seated before you. Suck it up and try not to look so bitter (you'll fail). -the exorbitant bill. The millionaire bacon costs almost as much, and you'll order one plate and wish you had ordered two. -the very pretty ube latte which amazingly tastes very ube, more so than other alleged ube lattes at other places. -the large portions. And you'll devour every bite. -the wait. I know. I'm repeating myself. We got there at 9:45 and were seated at 10:30. If you come back at 1:30 like we did, you'll score a table instantly. read more

Came here for a Sunday brunch around 10:30am and only waited 10ish minutes for a table outside! The service was so quick, our food was out within 10 minutes. I got the Frisco Hash, which was soo delicious. It hearty and cheese on top was melted perfectly. I also loved the potato medley because it had a variety of potatoes which added great flavor. Overall, we had a wonderful meal here! read more

What an amazing place! We made reservations for 12 (recommended) and we were seated promptly. We ordered and received our food in less than 10 minutes (the server said they had a staff or 20 in the kitchen). The food was absolutely amazing! I ordered the original eggs Benedict. The hollandaise sauce was creamy and had a subtle hint of lemon. The potatoes were cooked perfectly. Probably the best eggs Benedict I've had. I also tasted the deep fried French Toast and banana which was great. It wasn't very sweet and the banana complimented the French toast the Fried rice and millionaires bacon was our is this world. The bacon was cooked perfectly and was sweet and salty. What a great place. There was plenty of seating but make sure you have time to find parking. We found parking about block away (metered). The place had a vibe and the staff were friendly. 100% recommend this place. read more

I can't believe I really spent close to $60 just for a deep fried French toast, hot chocolate, and a bunch of add-ons. My fault because the price is clearly listed on the menu, but when everything is nickel and dimed, it just isn't worth it. In my opinion, if I'm paying $16 for a piece of french toast, it might as well come with the fruits, potatoes, and egg instead of making it a $5 add-on for each item. The French toast wasn't even that good. An additional $16 for the millionaires bacon is absurd. Trust me, it's not that hard to make. I can't bring myself to come back to support such a place, although I'm sure the other items taste fine. read more

Don't be intimidated by the line around the corner. Service is fast and you get seated quickly. The food is definitely deserving of their high Yelp rating. We stopped by for brunch and tried their Morning Tacos, which were delicious. Their Coffees are rich and flavorful. The Strawberry Nutella Crêpes had the perfect ratio of flavor. But the star of the day was their specialty cocktail the Tequila in Bloom definitely one of the best drinks I've had. The location is small, but they have a ton of staff that are friendly and attentive. Our glasses were never empty, and our food came out quickly. They are located on the corner and have inside and outside seating available. Definitely this place to stop if you're looking for a great meal. read more

I got a the South of the Border Scramble, def great for those who like the spice, it was seasoned so well and had some jalapeños throughout & the potatoes were so yummy! I got a side of bacon which was good, just a bit simple. There was a delicious matcha cocktail, made with tequila which surprisingly went well with the earthly matcha flavor. The service was quick and it seems like they are used to the weekend crowd flow. Overall cute neighborhood & cute modern vibe inside. read more

I tried the strawberry Nutella crepe. For $22 I definitely expected more. There was only one thin crepe with a little bit of Nutella, and barely any strawberries. All the sides costed an exorbitant amount of additional money, so I passed on them. My friends like what they picked! We walked so can't speak towards parking. There was a long line for brunch on a Saturday morning, but it was holiday season. read more

The food is good but the wait is stupid long (there's usually a line spilling into the sidewalk at most hours of the weekend, it's not unusual to wait an hour). I've been twice and my more memorable dish was the frisco scramble (big chunks of avocado, nice and cheesy, well-toasted bread, good potatoes). My friend also got an omurice which was tasty. They do some of that asian fusion for dishes while maintaining classics. I wouldn't go out of my way to get Sweet Maple (it's also very similar to Kitchen Story and some other brunch spots in city) but since I live in the neighborhood it's okay. The inside is pretty bright and lively. Once you actually get seated, service is pretty fast. read more

A delicious place to have breakfast. We came here while visiting San Francisco and saw their purple Ube latte and wanted to try it. When we sat down, it took us a long time to decide what we wanted because there were so many amazing choices. I asked the waiter for his opinion and he was able to tell us some best sellers. I ended up getting the beef bulgogi scramble and it was so good. The ube latte we were able to get a shot of espresso in it to make it "dirty". I love how the restaurant had a diner feel but definitely a great spot for brunch. read more

When in the city you must try this brunch spot. Though the lines can get long and parking can be tough, this is the perfect place to yap and drink bottomless mimosas with friends. They were extremely accommodating with their policy that everyone had to get bottomless or you can't get it by allowing two of our drivers to opt out of the requirement. They were extremely kind and the service was superb and kept a brave face after being berated by another customer. Our party enjoyed the food paired with the mimosas. If you want something strong get the AMF mimosa. Food prices are a little bit higher than most places but I personally think it's worth it. They have indoor and outdoor seating and if the weathers perfect, outdoor is the way to go. read more

Sweet Maple don't offer reservations on the weekends, but luckily the wait wasn't too long for a party of two on a Sunday. Even though there was a line out the door when we arrived around 10:00am, the wait wasn't bad (~15 minutes). Once we ordered, our food came out ~10 minutes. Our order: Savory Souflegg Skillet ($27.00): +Huge portion +Eggs were soft and fluffy. +Shrimp were plump. +Bacon was nicely rendered and crispy. +Potato medley included a variety of regular and sweet potatoes. +Ciabatta au levain toast wasn't hard. -As some reviews mentioned, the closer you got to the edges of the skillet, the smokier the dish tasted. It tasted like charcoal. -Monotonous after a while: It would be nice if there were some mix-ins. -Salty Hass Omelette ($25.00), substitute mixed fruit ($5.00) for potato medley: -Not my order, but dining companion thought the omelette was salty. The variety in the mixed fruit was appreciated. *Verdict: 3.5 stars rounded down to 3. Even though we still had food on our plates, different employees kept asking if we were done and tried to clear our plates. In addition, our waitress brought us the check before we were done eating. It was also hard to have a conversation even though we sat next to each other at the bar. Considering all the brunch places in SF, not worth a return visit. read more

Sweet Maple - Savory Souflegg Skillet - American Near Me - San Francisco, California

Service: there was a bit of a line when we came at ~12pm on a Saturday but the line moves relatively fast. Waitstaff/hosts were all very nice/polite. Food: Francis Souflegg: 4/5. The eggs are just as light and fluffy as you'd expect. Just wish there was a bit more seasoning/flavor. The side potatoes were great though! Hass Omelet: 4:5. Solid omelet. No complaints but no wow factor either. The accompanying pico de gallo was delicious Chicken Panini: 4.5/5. The bread was toasted to perfection! They really nailed the crispiness. The chicken was nice and juicy, which countered the crispy bread well. Could be a little bit saltier but that's a personal preference. The side salad was also pretty good; it had a dressing that was slightly sweet. TL;DR: parking is tough around here but not imposible. Would recommend the chicken panini. And don't let the line scare you! read more

We came here on Easter Sunday before heading to the Cherry Blossom festivities in Japan town. The line was long but moved quickly. We sat outside since it was a beautiful day in the city. We decided to get the bottomless mimosas for the table. They do have a time limit which I believe was an hour. We got the millionaires bacon sampler for the table, the rosemary was our favorite but the others were good too. The food was very fresh, service was friendly and quick, and the mimosas were delicious. Definitely recommend this place and don't be frightened by the line, it's worth the wait. read more

Visited Sunday morning brunch with friends. They don't take reservations. We arrived at 9:30 and there was a line out the door, roughly an hour wait. We ordered a variety of dishes: - Francis Skillet: very hearty and filling dish with potatoes, eggs, and veggie mix. Would definitely recommend. - Blackstone Benedict: classic eggs benedict with poached eggs and a rich hollandaise sauce. - Big Hip: very fluffy pancakes, not mushy, with a side of fresh fruit. A much sweeter and lighter breakfast - Snowed Spinach Veggie Omelette: a great option for my vegetarian friend! Very savory Service was quick despite how busy it was, and servers were very friendly and attentive. There were tons of groups with bottomless mimosas, will definitely try next time I visit. read more

The Millionaire's bacon taster flight is pure breakfast heaven - thick, crispy strips with that perfect sweet-smoky-candied glaze that makes you want to order a second round before you've even finished the first. Paired with their fluffy eggs Benedict and a shared plate of that decadent French toast dripping in maple, it was one of the best brunches I've had in the city. The vibe is bright and welcoming, staff is genuinely friendly and quick, and even though there's usually a wait, it's worth it. Came on a sunny morning, sat inside, no issues at all. Sweet Maple definitely lives up to the hype for me - I'll be back soon! read more

I heard how delicious the food was at Sweet Maple in San Francisco, so I tried it today. I was not impressed, I ordered a Coconut Latte and the Bulgogi Scramble. Although the Coconut Latte was good, it had not coffee in it at all ($8) and the Bulgogi ($27) was under seasoned and the meat tasted like ground beef not ribeye. Not sure if it was what I ordered or not, but I had better My waiter nice, not overly attentive. Just not what I expected for the cost read more

Very long lines, very popular, be ready if you are hungry. The restaurant is known for their millionaire bacon. It is on the sweeter side, I think dipped with maple syrup? It's thick cut, and everyone orders it. So of course I had to order it. It was okay. I love thick cut, but I am also more of a savory person. My fave is their French toast. It was delicious. The rest of the food had very pretty presentation and food was pretty good. Services was pretty good. They tended to us when needed, even with how busy it is. I've been here a few times and I can't complain about anything, besides some of the seating being pretty squished inside. read more

Dining area pleasant, bright. Coffee, regular. Tasteless. "Cream" should be called "Milk." Bacon nicely cooked, but served in a dish of undrained fat. Pancakes beautiful to look at. NEEDED a knife to cut them. A little chewy. Strawberry garnish. Should they be crunchy? Service OK. If I had seen fresh juice on the menu, I would. have ordered some. Return trip? Don't think so. read more

so nice and easy the food is always delicious! could use some more seasoning for my personal taste but its still delicious always and everything I get from here is a banger! the service is good, waiters are attentive, check up often and they get your food to you pretty quick which is nice. tons of seating and plenty of nice booths but this place does get packed sometimes and there's no reservations and they won't seat you of your party is missing anyone, which is lame. the food, while yummy, is certainly over priced (something about a 8$ pancake, just 1, doesnt sit right with me. its supposed to be a poor mans food) read more

Finally found a Sweet Maple location where we didn't have to strategize like we were trying to get concert tickets! We arrived around 1 pm on a Saturday and got seated right away -- a rarity compared to the hour-plus wait times in Cupertino and Palo Alto. We went a bit wild with the mimosas and tried four different flavors. The Pomegranate, Mango Tajin, and Tiffany's were top picks, but steer clear of the Bitter Mimosa -- it tasted like a mix of regret and childhood vitamins. My Hemingway Benedict was spot on; salmon and eggs are always a winning combo, and the crispy potatoes were a bonus. My friend's Pimped Shin Cupbop came out looking like something straight out of a food blogger's dreem. Only downside? We visited during a heat wave, and sitting by the window without A/C felt more like brunching in a sauna. But the service was attentative, keeping our glasses full and our spirits high. Despite the heat, it's a solid spot worth checking out -- just maybe on a cooler day! read more

The outdoor and indoor area are great, and the service is super fast. Food was definitely pricey but it was a 10 out of 10. Bacon was also the thickest bacon that I have ever had. It was classic and Asian inspired. Sort of fusion breakfast. I love the variety and how it wasn't just your classic brunch. read more

AITA for hating their bacon? I came here with friends for brunch on a busy Sunday and, fortunately, didn't have to wait TOO long to be seated, that was a great start! CHICKEN RANCHEROS: This was decent and straight forward. I always get huevos rancheros at breakfast/brunch joints and while it didn't really encapsulate any Mexican flavors as I expected from them, it did have a well sized portion of succulent chicken breast with a nice poached egg on top, sprinkled with goat feta. The salsa was tomato-ey and went well. Not spicy at all. MILLIONAIRE's BACON: This was the thicker cut, two slice order and it was honestly really overrated. Very expensive for too much hype. It was dry, too spicy, and tasted like a piece of jerky at the gas station for $26. I would be willing to pay $30 for some quality bacon! Sadly, this wasn't it and apparently it's their whole personality. No offense to sweet maple. Despite this, I would love to come back and try other dishes! This seems like a very quality breakfast restaurant in the area and the food was delicious aside from the expensive jerky bacon. Our server was very sweet and the food came out quickly. Everything was really fresh, the chicken was moist, and the orange juice was perfect! read more

Every item on Sweet Maple's menu is so thoughtfully crafted and amazingly delivered. I came here with a friend on a Friday morning and was immediately seated by a friendly host. The waiters were very kind and attentive, checking in when we were prepared to order and ready for the check.

Sweet Maple is a great breakfast/brunch place to visit. Service is very nice, they make sure you are taken care of with a smile! We went when it was pretty busy, but they made sure we were seated and needs were met. Our server was very sweet, asking for drink orders before meals. Our orders all came at the same time, in such a fast and timely manner. All the options on the menu sounded delightful so it was hard to choose. The SM Omurice, a specialty on the menu, is a great pick if you gravitate towards Asian cuisine. The rice is full of flavor, especially from the marinated bulgogi. There is a decent amount of meat. The egg was well cooked, not too runny. The sauce on top was light and was a nice addition. The ciabatta was melt in your mouth soft, very nice. The potato was my side of choice, the other option being salad. They were soft, flavorful, and pillowy. The Deep Fried French Toast was super tasty. The maple syrup pairs well and you can adjust how sweet each bite is. For a dessert, it's a lot, so it's great to share with others! The portion sizes are all pretty big, well worth your money and time. Had a great visit today, will definitely come again to try more of their delicious meals! read more
