Most beautiful setting next the famous Nordstrom fountain. Two spacious patois as well as nicely decorated dining area. Easy menu. Creative dishes. Very nice staff. Ultra clean restrooms. We liked the Parmesan Truffle Fries, and the Steak ???? Frites. The Creamy Mushroom Soup is good. It’s little bit thicker than usual. The Modern Caesar salad ???? is delicious. The only thing I didn’t like is the dogs ????. The patio was a noisy.
This is a great spot! We were looking for a brunch and this place was a pleasant surprise. Patio seating is better but great drink menu to compliment good food. Go early as it gets packed quick.
My Great Maple in Newport Beach offers a delightful dining experience that is perfectly complemented by the region's stunning weather. The restaurant's outdoor patio is a standout feature, providing a spacious and inviting setting to enjoy your meal while enjoying the cool ocean breeze. The ambiance is enhanced by the well-designed space, which creates a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere. The service at My Great Maple is exemplary. Service is friendly and quick. I ordered the Lemon Shrimp Pasta and it was delicious. Lots of shrimp in a buttery, cheesy, zesty sauce. Perfect!
The Great Maple is one of main go-to spots at the Island. They offer breakfast ans lunch type food so there won’t be any broken hearts if you sleep in. Just head out to Maple and get your fix. It’s always a great option for our family and they have always taken care of us when we visit.
The Cobb salad was substantial. I probably shouldn’t have ordered the chicken noodle soup, but it was great. The waitstaff were spread thin despite the restaurant being half empty on a weekday lunch.
Great breakfast! We enjoyed the French toast logs and the chicken and maple donuts. Everything was delicious. Service was so friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. Atmosphere was fun and not crowded on a Saturday morning. We loved the whole experience.
Excellent happy hour. Ends at 6:30pm. Menu will inspire you. Something for almost everyone. Cushy seats at bar. Heated patio. Great service. The bacon old fashion cocktail is a deal at $8.
Had the hot honey chicken sandwich. This thing was BIG and I'm a big guy. OK I'll get to the point - Delicious!!! Very flavorful and the chicken was moist. Enough chicken to have some on the side with my fries and plenty for the sandwich. Service was great and the ambiance outside was what I expected for a mid tier restaurant at an upscale mall. Others in our party had the burger and the ribeye melt. Both delicious, but the melt was more of just a sandwich than a traditional melt. Any of the three would not disappoint. Will definitely be back there again. Bring your stretchy pants.
Been wanting to try this place since I saw it few months ago, but was always too busy with a long wait. Got lucky today and was able to get a table right away even though it still looked busy. Definitely not a place if you are on a diet. I had to sacrifice my healthy eating for today just so I can try its famous Fried Chicken & Doughnuts, which was excellent. Kind of hard to go wrong with that combination, especially when this place specializes in maple. The maple bacon doughnuts were warm, fluffy and so damn tasty. It was much better than any maple doughnuts I had in the past. I could be wrong but thought there was a bit of spiciness on the maple glaze. To counter some of that unhealthy meal, I also got Maple Pecan Crusted Salmon, which was quite good, although not visually appealing. It came with riced cauliflower and some other chopped up green veggies. Cajun Shrimp Biscuit Benedict was just ok. I really didn't detect any cajun flavor, and the biscuit was somewhat pasty in texture. I think this dish would be much better if it used its maple doughnut instead of biscuit. Service was decent. Our waitress was friendly but the hostess looked nonchalant. Looked like she didn't want to be here today.
Service- 3 stars Hot honey chicken sandwich- 4 stars Ribeye melt- 3 stars, because it was delicious but it wasn't a melt at all. Steakhouse burger- 4 stars Fries- 4 stars We walked right in on a Saturday afternoon.
