Sweet Maple in Palo Alto

For sure worth a try if you a brunch fan.I’ve been here a few times, definitely huge plus for nice interior and atmosphere. There not too many places that could offer similar experience, perhaps only Son&Garden.Unfortunately food here definitely isn’t amazing, I would say it’s decent. Scrambled eggs are usually having too much butter in and their potatoes kind of heavy too. Basically anything that I tried here was not a spot on dish, but was okay.The only thing I’m a fan of their millionaire’s bacon, that’s definitely something that you’d want to get,especially if you love savory breakfast/brunch or bacon in general.

Hello viewers,I believe this is the same one as the one is San Francisco, they are serving the very famous millionaire bacon. However I feel this one has serve a bit differently than Asian fusion and a bit more of Korean style into it.I like SF sweet maple a lotI was super excited about ordering the foods that I never try before such a loco moco, Asians style fried rice, quesadillas and most importantly million bacons. From the beginning, I made a reservation to go the restaurant, and we get seated fairly quickly. I would say the waiter are very un attentive, and I had asked several times to get a water. The foods are served quickly, the plates are big and table are uncomfortable to sit in when you order more than 3 plates.My overall experience is so so consider this is a higher $$$ restaurant, maybe it’s a new norm after Covid.Paul

This is my second time visiting the restaurant but first time eating here. I gave up my first time after the wait time exceeded 1 hour 😬The restaurant was well decorated and had a nice ambience atmosphere to dine in. We visited during dinner time so it was pretty vacant. Not many customers as this place was more popular as a brunch restaurant.The staff was friendly and fast. I changed my mind after ordering. Thankfully, the staff was quick to change it before the kitchen prepared my food.We ordered one Loco Moco, one Tornado Galbi Omurice and one cocktail named Spicy Melon Margarita.The cocktail was pretty good, not spicy at all. The melon was sweet, while the pink salt emphasized the flavors of the drinks.My Omurice was good. I liked the beef, but the black sauce was very salty. The egg was quite overcooked for an Omurice, but it still tasted good so I overlooked that. My husband’s Loco Moco was also good, but he said the beef not as tasty as mine.Overall, we had a good time here. If we have time in the future, we’d love to try their famous brunch menu, but we have kids, and the wait time during lunch in the weekends is ridiculous.

Highly recommended for breakfast and brunch. Their claim of fame is the Millionaire’s bacon which is amazing. In addition, there are many unique items such as Soufflegg (Soufflé style puffy eggs) and Moffles (mochi+waffle)., and their interpretation of old time favorites such as Benedict.We tried Millionaire’s Bacon Sampler platter with 4 different varieties of bacons. Thick, non greasy, and flavorful. They are good sized, and perfect to share between the 4 of us.We also shared Blueberry Moffles, it was excellent with the mochi texture. 2 pieces was just right as shared sweet dessert for us.I had the Blackstone Benedict, it was pretty cool to replace the Canadian bacon by their signature bacon.Others in the party had Soufflégg, omelette and they were all excellent.Good sized portions. Excellent coffee. Good services and comfortable indoor and outdoor seating.

Expensive af but you will not regret eating here. this is some religious experience type food. the stuff youd leave as an offering to the grandma that left you a paid off house in the bay area in her will. matcha is thick and creamy, pancakes are light and fluffy, bacon is just something you have to experience for yourself, everything has immaculate and complex flavor and is plated so nicely. the atmosphere is great too.

We ordered Spinach Scramble and Frisco Scramble. Both were awesome. They coming with roasted potatoes which was the best roasted potatoes I ever had.The environment was very nice and good for dogs. They also had indoor dog friendly table that was very cozy.

I always see people packed in there on the weekends for breakfast. So we gave dinner on a weeknight a shot. Seated right away. Great presentation of dishes. Very tasty food full of flavor. A little pricey but that goes without saying. Rent is high on University Avenue. Started with Millionaire Bacon. I should have ordered 4 of those! Delicious!Entrées were the Locomoco Korean rice dish and Pacifica seafood salad. We had to try the Beignets for dessert. Highly recommended.

Was so excited to try this place for lunch/brunch and unfortunately was not very impressed with the food. My mom and I arrived on a Friday just before 1pm and were seated right away indoors. I ordered the Francis soufflegg with no bacon and an ube latte and my mom ordered the sizzling stonepot with chicken mango sausage. The chicken mango sausage was very dry and had the consistency of ground beef, which I was not expecting. There was also supposed to be a potato brussel sprouts medley, however, the brussel sprout pieces were burnt to a crisp and completely inedible. The ube latte though was quite good. My mom also liked her stonepot, so maybe just dont get the soufflegg and try a different dish on their menu.

One of the best French toasts (big hip) I’ve tried. Well prepared! Crunchy on the edges and soft on the inside. Presentation was great as well!

This place is super mid. Came here for brunch. The first few bites were good, but after that, it didnt taste like much. The loco moco tasted more like oil. And the kimchi tasted like it was only seasoned with paprika. For the claypot, if you want it to taste super sweet, use the sauce they give you, but i poured the sauce, thinking itd be more savory and ended up severely disappointed. Ube latte and oatmilk latte my fiance got were delicious though and the workers were super nice. Was going to order the millionaire bacon and another menu item but decided to hold off and wait after i tried the first few bites. Glad i did. Maybe Ill give it another chance but they got to fix their kimchi for sure.
