    At the Maples golf course. Need reservations for the dining area. Seated right away in the bar area at a half booth. Mike is waiting on us. Music is techno, not what I would expect for a golf course restaurant. Their burgers look good, two handed for sure. Ordered a chicken Alfredo eggrolls, spicy maple chicken wrap with a side Caesar, scallops, maple power green salad. $84.80 Our waiter asked if we wanted to order drinks. We told him someone else came by to get our drink order. He frowned and darted right away to his colleague to say something to her and grabbed the drink for us to bring it to the table. Seemed like some drama there. She was just trying to help him out. There is wood maple leaf to hold the citrus slices on the drinks, very fitting for the restaurant. Cute. Apps takes a bit, food too. Patience needed here. First apps out 20+ minutes or so. The chicken Alfredo is crispy, super greasy though,, it's just subpar. A lot of eggroll dough, some hollow spots at the ends, not filled. The Alfredo sauce and the tomato dipping sauce is quite bland and boring to me. Underwhelming. It looks better than it tastes. Main entree was out maybe another 10 minutes after the app. The kale maple power green salad was okay. The Caesar and the spicy chicken wrap were okay. One of the 4 scallops tasted and smelled like ammonia to me. Didn't taste so good at all. The waiter had the chef smell it. He came back to tell me the chef told him, it is fresh today and is perfectly fine. They have practically sold out of it. Not sure about that. My husband said his half scallop bite tasted funny to him. We set the plate aside, didn't even want to eat the mashed potatoes, mushrooms and artichoke, since it was all touching the scallops. We were told it was all fine, that it is our tastebuds and gut telling us it's bad that we were wrong. It's not sitting well with my stomach at all. Not good! The waiter finally smelled the ammonia on the scallop and took it back to the kitchen. They took away the unfinished plate of scallop, potatoes and veggies, but the waiter said they will not take it off the bill. We didn't even ask to take the scallop off the bill at all. Rather rash and swift denial. They clearly don't believe us. They gave us a dessert as compensation for the bad scallop. Not sufficient for $34 for bad scallops if you ask me. A cheesecake for bad scallops and a churning stomach. Absolutely unacceptable! My dinner tonight was a kale salad, greasy chicken Alfredo egg rolls, ammonia infused scallions and a meh cheesecake slice. The NY style cheesecake is a softer cake than I am used to, it's so-so. Not sure about the cinnamon and sugar all over it, seems like an after thought to make it taste like something special. It's not special at all. The cheesecake slice was listed as a Birthday dessert. Comical given it was a terrible birthday experience tonight, if it really was my birthday today, which it is not. Our waiter isn't friendly at all and not so attentive or on the ball. Customer service is lacking. The manager nor the chef never spoke to us at all. Waiting to pay our bill to get out of this place and as far away as possible too. It's taking a while to pay our bill and there aren't that many tables either. It's irritating watching our waiter at the bar chatting and taking his time to Coke to our table. My stomach is feeling off and he's keeping us longer than I want to be here. We took some active charcoal pills as soon as we got home. Don't want any further issues after the bad scallops. Service is non-existent in fact.

    Yeah this place is a BANGER! I wanted to try a new place for dinner & drinks and this place absolutely delivered. Upon walking in we were greeted by the hostess and the Lady was given a rose and we were seated immediately (made a reservation weeks in advance). Our server Michael was cool, walked us through the menu and was very attentive. The vibe was VERY adult and chill, with music in the background that wasn't loud with TV's placed around the rooms. The food was top tier we both ordered the spicey shrimp for an appetizer then the lamb chop dinner with whipped potatoes and broccoli. For dessert we shared the strawberry short cake. Their drinks were also smooth yet strong enough. Management came by to check on us and everyone else. This place is that deal coupled with the fact that another establishment we love is not far from here...... yup we'll be back.

    Wow!!! What a way to end birthday month! Maples was absolutely outstanding in service, food and atmosphere! That's the restaurant trifecta if you ask me. Located on a golf course, one would not expect a classy, chic, contemporary restaurant. It reminded me of a spot you'd find in Manhattan. The menu was well rounded and the prices for entrees were on point. I ordered the lamb chops which were very good and my bf ordered the chicken. He was in heaven! The most tender, juicy chicken.I think I've ever tasted. We ended the night with a shared blueberry cheesecake which was absolutely divine! It was so creamy and the crust....OMG! I woke up thinking about it. A huge shout out to Mike, our server.who went above and beyond to meet our expectations! I'm a huge fan of this place and can't wait to cone back!

    The place was practically empty for Wednesday lunch--not exactly a buzzing vibe...but that will never stop my show lol! The décor was charming and the space was very spacious. I started with the Chicken Alfredo Eggrolls, a dish the waitress couldn't stop raving about. Rave, where? Sadly, they were a major letdown--dry as dust!! Alfredo sauce? Nowhere to be found. Next up was the Strawberry Feta Salad with blackened chicken. The salad itself? Delicious and worth every bite, okay!! The chicken? Blah! Bland, forgettable, and definitely not worth the extra $6. For a drink, I went with the Cucumber Basil Gimlet. Refreshing, crisp, and absolutely a 10/10. On a less appetizing note, I did point out to the waitress that the floor near me was noticeably dirty--yes, including a chicken bone by my foot. She thanked me... and then went on her way. No cleanup crew in sight. Really? Overall, I'll give this place one more shot, but definitely not in a rush!

    Since the dinning out group is always like to try new places along with favorites, I saw this on Open Table and decided to try. Everyone there was so happy we did. While during the day in the warm weather, it might be harder to find a parking spot, there was plenty by 6:30 pm. The dinning room also has plenty of room. Comfortable seating in a warmly welcoming room. From the beginning to the end, the service was friendly, knowledgeable, and there before needed. Our server's recommendations was spot on. The food was good and more than fairly priced. The calamari appetizer was the best all of us ever had. I enjoyed the smash burger and the half I took home was just as good as the first time. The Caesar salad was the creamy one not the oily one. The berry sorbet was perfect way to end the meal. While it was a smaller than other times, everyone agreed we need to come back and try the fall menu.

    The decor and ambiance was super cute. Love the colors and set up. The service was good. Nothing special. The food also was just okay. The zucchini flowers were my favorite. The chicken eggrolls were just okay. They were dry. We also ordered a wedge and a grilled ceaser add chicken. Wasn't really impressed at all. Basic food with basic flavor. Flavors need to be elevated. Cocktail options are slim. I did love my expresso martini. My girl loved her now to too. No plan to return.

    Nice restaurant located on a golf course and pool. Waitstaff were attentive and food was good. We came relatively early on a Sunday; 1pm and had a reservation but really didn't need one. We were 1 of two tables seated at that time.

    Grilled Barramundi
    Averianna R.

    Ambiance was beautiful. I sat at the bar & I ordered the grilled barramundi & substituted roasted potato's for the the mashed potato's. Mashed potatoes were freezing cold & the bartender said "well it'll be 15 minutes for new ones." I said okay never mind & she said "well I wish I had something else to say but I don't !" Which I found snarky & unprofessional but all she could focus on was talking about her upcoming birthday trip to Miami. For the entree price everything should have been hot. The lemon sauce on the artichokes & grilled tomatoes was also extremely overpowering, sour & ruined it. The fish however was tasty but I doubt I'll go back unless it's for the egg rolls as a carry out another customer told me they were really good. You guys should really work on your customer service well the Caucasian bartender with the black glasses & dark hair everyone else was friendly.

    Came to dinner on a Friday night we were four people and didn't have to wait. The restaurant was decently full, the bar area had more people than the dining room. We started with some apps the chicken Alfredo egg rolls being the best at the table. We decided to share a few meals and we all agreed the smash burger was the best. Definitely try it out if you haven't!

    This was a signature brick chicken that I had with a bottle of Quilt...was phenomenal!

    Food and service was excellent. Very pleasant environment. Just went through a huge renovation and new menu roll out from what I've been told will happen in about a week..amazing experience!

    My side Caesar salad in place of fries..no extra charge..so good! Side Caesar

    First time at this restaurant where I came as part of a financial presentation that included a…read moredinner. I arrived early to sample their Happy Hour where I got a Tommy Margarita which was one of four cocktail choices on the Happy Hour menu where the other choices are an Old Fashion, Lemon Drop Martini and a Black Manhattan. All of which I personally am a fan of. Relative to my Margarita, it was very well made with 2 full ounces of Blanco Tequila as the base and quite tasty. Definately a drink with a kick and not a watered down version you get at most other bars in the area. At $8 it's a pretty good deal in my opinion especially for a drink of this quality. Relative to Dinner my wife got the White Fish dinner and I got the Milanese Chicken. Both dishes were excellent where they were cooked to perfection and were delicious. Prices on the menu were a tad high in my opinion but the old adage that you get what you pay for applies here and is definately worth the cost in my opinion. Appetizer was the Calamari which was well made and quite tasty in its own right. Relative to staff and facility, the facility is very classy with a nice contemporary flair to it, Definately an upscale feel to it where both the bar and the dining area offer an elevated dining/drinking experience. Staff was super friendly with great follow up where the bar can be a tad slower as only one bartender was working while I was there but he did a fairly good job of keeping up with the orders and high marks for his efficiency. Overall a great classy restaurant with a nice Happy Hour makes this a destination restaurant worth the trip if you live outside this area. For discerning customers who prize Quality in what they eat and drink this is a business not to be missed!

This is one of our favorites.

    Why haven't I tried here sooner?…read more Toasted oaks is located inside of the renaissance hotel located by 12 oaks mall parking lot. There is an entrance for just the restaurant which makes it easier to enter. There is also close parking next to it. I had no wait on a Friday evening, which I'm sure isn't common, but I was also there about1 hour 30 minute - 2 hours to closing so it could be why. I was still given great service and a wonderful cooked dish. I ordered a mocktail (virgin spring in wing) that had was supposed to have smashed strawberries. I barely tasted the strawberry (I did not have some in the drink) as the soda water overpowered everything thing else. I probably should have said something, but I didn't. If I order next time I will. There were many great things on the menu, but I opted for the bone in pork chop. While I waited I did ask if they had bread service and they have corn bread. First I was like "hmmmm idk". Once it came to the table I loved it. I usually don't butter my corn bread, but I tried their butter with it and I enjoyed the pairing. It was perfectly cooked well enough how pork should be, but still tender so it wasn't dry. It had this whiskey sweet fruity glaze over it which was delicious. I would have preferred it on the side, but that's just a personal preference. The green beans weren't soggy, they had a slight crisp to them. A great flavor. I opted out of the loaded baked potato and just got a plain with butter , sour cream and chives. Overall for what I ordered I didn't think the price to be too unreasonable. However, this place can get pricy with other things on the menu. Their menu might also change because I seen photos of this place and those items weren't on the menu. I would come here again for a dinner alone, with my spouse and even with friends.
