The Maple

I had brunch with a friend on 1 Sunday 11/12. The main seating area was full, so we chose to sit on the patio which was very nice as it was quieter, and the heaters kept us warm. While the food was delicious, the one BIG downfall was... coffee, namely refills and the lack of. I'm a big fan of coffee, and it was very disappointing to empty the first cup in about 10 minutes &not having anyone come by to refill it the rest of the time we were there. Also, the service on the patio should be the same as inside. I had to get a glass of water, silverware, and napkins myself... then after making me order with my phone they ask for a tip (starting with a suggested 20%). For what? For those of you that don't know, TIPS is an acronym for To Insure Prompt Service, and people write l would tip when being seated. To ask for a tip when everything except having your food and drink brought to the table is ridiculous.

Very nice neighborhood restaurant and bar with several interesting drink selections made with in-house fused liquor. Outdoor seating is popular, so we had to wait a bit to get an outdoor table. Ordering is done online via a QR code. You are responsible for getting your own water, flatware, and napkins. Also they ask you to bus your own table. I know it's difficult to get staff nowadays, but for a sit-down restaurant that's not fast food, this feels like a little too much to ask the customers. Just my opinion. The food was good and the staff we did interact with was very nice.

A cute little restaurant you might miss walking by, as it looks like a standard neighborhood house. Inside is a bit dark, but I like the mood, and the outdoor patio is super cute. This gem is a great spot for a summer date, dinner with friends, or for a casual drink. You order from the QR codes so not a traditional serving set up, but I don't mind. Just don't expect the server to come back. Water is self service, as are condiments.

This place is awesome!!! Definitely a more expensive spot, but worth it for the food! The eggs benedict was wonderful. Eggs cooked perfectly, bacon crispy, the crab cakes were super flavorful and soft. Came with a nice helping of potatoes and a little salad. Our server was super nice and we were able to do a brunch order even though we arrived at the end of brunch time. There was a little confusion with ordering but not a big deal and everything turned out great! Lovely building, fancy but still cozy at the same time, beautiful outdoor seating options. the few negative reviews I'm seeing are people who were upset that the food was too intricate or that its not the same as it used to be, but i think that's just up to your preference. We ended up staying after brunch to get an order of fried oysters. They were so good, you could tell they were fresh and they were so soft and juicy. They took longer cause of a kitchen mishap and they were so sweet and comped them for us. 10/10 would recommend.
