Loved the food - but didn't like that even when you dine in, all the food still comes out in containers. The server was kind and attentive. We ordered catfish, chicken wings, sweet potatoes, corn, macaroni and cheese, cornbread and greens. Would definitely return, but would probably not dine in.

PERIOD! $23 wasted on a drum stick and small baby thigh with no seasoning on it and dropped in honey water. Dressing is stove top (no lie thats exactly what it is). Mac n cheese is boxed Kraft (no lie) and greens were cooked in 25min with minimal seasoning. The leaves look partially cooked. Even the cornbread aint right with the water honey on it. How this place is in business is beyond me.

We stopped at Maple Tree Inn for a pre-concert dinner, and I found myself asking: why did I wait so…read morelong to come back? My last visit was when they were still on Old Western Ave in Blue Island--way overdue for a return. Let's start with the food--absolutely delicious. The three of us kicked things off with the Cast Iron Cornbread, and trust me, don't skip it. Perfectly done and a great start to the meal. For mains, we went with the Pitmaster's N'awlins Gumbo, Hickory Buttered BBQ Shrimp, and Burnt Ends. Every dish was spot on--flavorful, well-executed, and clearly made with care. The restaurant itself is pristine--clean, polished, and classy without feeling stuffy. Service was just as strong. Our server, Nick, was attentive, knowledgeable, and made the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. Safe to say, it will NOT be another 30 years before my next visit. Highly recommend.

The original location of Maple Tree Inn was located in Blue Island. This location was unfortunately…read moredestroyed in 2018 by a fire. My coworkers and I would go to the old location from time to time. Their new location opened in 2019, but this is the first time that I got to check it out. The restaurant is gorgeous! One thing that I noticed was all staff that I encountered generally looked happy. The host was super friendly and offered vegan or gluten free menus if we needed. The person that seated us also was running food and ensuring tables were kept clean. Since it had been so long since I dined here, the menu appeared smaller. I appreciated that our server Adam explained some of his favorites. The cocktail that I got was excellent. The cornbread appetizer was huge. I went with the gumbo and it was full of meat pieces. It was really flavorful. Adam was super friendly and made us feel welcome. Parking lot is tight, but they also offer valet. I highly recommend this spot if you are looking for some Louisiana style cusine.

As usual, I enjoy searching for Black-owned restaurants and bars to frequent and this was a great…read moreaddition to my list. I visited during a Saturday afternoon and was surprised with how empty it was. It was one other family that were in the middle of their meal so I was a little nervous. Luckily, the emptiness wasn't related to the quality of the food because it was good. The crawfish etouffee was well seasoned and had a bit of a kick to it if you enjoy spice. They do have a full service bar with cocktails; I ordered a mixed drink and while it tasted fine, I could hardly taste any alcohol in it. The service was also a bit slower than I'd imagine considering that it was empty when I dined. Despite those minor shortcomings, I enjoyed my dining and would keep it on my list of places to consider in the future.

We ordered lunch for pickup at Hidden Manna Cafe 3 of 4 in my party had catfish poboys with greens…read moreand beans and rice. They enjoyed the poboys and thought the fried green tomato on it was an interesting touch. I ordered the vegetarian jambalaya, fried green tomatoes, and fried buffalo mushroom. Overall, I feel like everything, I ordered, was lacking in seasoning. The fried green tomatoes were good with dipping sauce. The batter on the mushrooms were on the soggy side; they might do better to cut the mushrooms instead of serving them whole. The jambalaya was too soupy. Traditional jambalaya doesn't have a liquid/soup to it. The jambalaya was more like a veggie étouffée. I would visit again to try the vegetarian jambalaya and, maybe, have the fried green tomatoes again.

First time here and we're excited! We saw them on IG so we had a GNO!…read more It said event was from 6-9pm but we didn't start till almost 7. Great HH options till 6 or 7 I believe. We got margaritas which were nice! Great balanced drink! We ordered a turkey burger with tots and loaded tots. The burger came with no tots, kitchen messed up and arrived after I ate the burger. Loaded tots were good and the tots that were with the burger were good. The host of "Drink Bingo" and the DJ were amazing. Solid energy, lots of fun and we were entertained! You gotta pay attention though! lol! Although fun, we felt a bit uncomfortable because it was kiddos there and we were promoting shots and calling out the "favorite number" of "69" so as educators, we felt a bit uncomfortable and awkward. I think we were thinking it was 21 and over since it was "Drunk Bingo". I hope the kiddos didn't go to school and say, "what's my favorite number? 69!" Yikes! :( I would just recommend it be 21 and over for that reason and the fact that it's "Drunk Bingo", let's keep the kiddos at home on Thursday nights :)

I mentioned I was cold but they never closed it. We went for Saturday Brunch, it's filled with grit and something or waffles and something options. I wish the menu had more options but I went with girts and lamb chops w/shrimp added on. We order a shared plate of Henny wings and French toast they forgot about and it came out super late. I started with the margarita flight which first came out filled with juice and no liquor. I talked to the waitress about it, she tasted the pre-made batch and agreed it wasn't right. She came back to tell me this and that she would make me a new flight fresh. I was happy this would be a quick resolve but it took 45 min to get the replacement after mentioning it 2x. The replacement came and was good, just wish it came before we were ready to go. The food was delicious, the grits were amazing. Lamb cooked and seasoned just right. My only complaint is the bowl it was served in is an appetizer bowl, super small. I'm not looking for more food just wish it wasn't piled into the small bowl and I was given a small appetizer fork to eat it with. The Henny glazed wings were super sweet, like an orange chicken sauce or orange marmalade. It was too sweet and ruined that dish. French toast was decent and tasted better without the syrup. Service is very slow, but the food comes quickly if they remember what you ordered. I had to remind them about my shrimp and the Henny wings. Because of the service doesn't match the high price tag and the lack of follow through, I wouldn't return on my own. If a friend was hosting something there I would go but it wouldn't be my first choice.
