Soufflé egg
Joyce T.

sizzling stone pot rice is huge, can serves 2-3 people and flavorful with a crisp rice crust. The soufflé egg with bacon has a wonderful texture and comes with great sides like crispy Brussels sprouts and sweet potato fries. The restaurant has a great vibe with beautiful interior and outdoor seating. The staff let us in 15 minutes before closing at 3pm. The things I don't like about are the ube latte that was a bit too sweet even i ordered with less sugar, and the butter fried corn was just average.

Updating my review after trying them again. Delicious. I really enjoyed the bacon. It is on the sweeter side, but it paired well with our savory sizzling plate. It was a comfy, crunchy, flavorful sizzling beef dish. I really enjoyed the crispy rice. The mochi waffle was amazing ! Soft but crispy texture paired well with the whipped cream and blueberry jam. The ube latte very rich and flavorful. Nice service. Parking is tough but you can park across by the gas station or other surrounding lots. Still crowded on a Sunday morning even at 9 !!!

Loco Moco

Overall: 4.5/5 This place has been on my to-go list for awhile and I finally get to try it. Went during peak lunchtime, reservations are only in-person, and I waited about 40 minutes to be seated. They have a diverse menu with several options to choose from. Food came out quickly despite it being busy. They have seating indoors and outdoors. I wish the staff told us about the 20% gratuity fee in the beginning, so the check was very surprising. Food: - Loco Moco: juicy meat, sauce is similar to a sweet BBQ taste - Savory & Francis Souffle Egg: favorite (also because I love eggs), very fluffy and savory, bacon complements it well but it can be a bit salty, some of the potatoes are also salty - Vermont Cheese Burger: requested medium, meat is juicy, thick and filling, fries are well-seasoned and crispy

You would think a IG worthy breakfast spot would be overrated or not live up to the hype based on their presentation... let me tell you Sweet Maple nails their presentation and quality of food. I had an amazing time try Sweet Maple with my family. Starting off with parking, its going to be tough so you might need to go to neighborhood behind. Seating we waited about 20-30 minutes on a Sunday morning. Their menu has so many food options to try and we had such a hard time figuring out what to get. It took the whole wait time for us to decide, I got the Chicken Croffle and it was huge! Croffle was a great doughy texture to compliment the fried chicken. I tried my Uncle's French toast and it was outstanding, it was thick cut slice and crisp as well. We all split the matcha mochi waffle and it was okay, Im not big into matcha and it felt like a dessert. I wouldn't recommend for an actual meal. Lastly for their ambience, it was vibrant and sleek in their. The tableware felt fancy and modern. I don't know how to call the aesthetic but I would 100% go back and take more family and friends.

Espresso Shakerato
Mayra D.

Went on a Monday morning thinking it would not be packed, but I was wrong. The whole place was busy. We got seated right away since it was only two of us. Also, we found parking right away since they have plenty of parking around the building. The host did not seem happy to be working on a Monday. She asked for how many and that's it. She had this "ugh" face on. I got the matcha waffles and they were too crispy for my liking, but the matcha was good. It was enough matcha for the waffles. My husband got one of the Benedicts and the dish was good. For the drinks, I did not like how we got them after the food was served so I felt rushed drinking my cocktail. The espresso shakerato was delicious. The watermelon Fizz, my husband liked it and we liked how it had fresh watermelon on top. Definitely will come back to try other dishes and drinks.

Hemingway
Meghna S P.

It's been a while I have been meaning to try Sweet Maple and finally got the chance to go for it on a random Friday. The place was packed both indoor and outdoors and we put our name on the wait-list. The outdoors was a bit chilly so we opted for indoors. I have to say the service was top notch and very quick..this is not one of those places where the servers take their time to come over to take your order etc. Even though it was super busy, they attended to us promptly which I loved. Once we got the menus there were so many amazing options to pick from. I went with the Hemingway and my husband got the omurice. The omurice was diff from what I was expecting.. I was hoping for the egg to open up like the videos I have seen from Japan but this was a simple egg on top of rice. They also did sub the beef with mango chicken sausage which was great for us. The Hemingway benidict was good too. The colorful plate was great to look at.. almost too many potatoes for me but I could easily share that. I am very glad I discovered a nice brunch place with so many options. I am definitely coming back here with friends and family.

Very fast and kind service at Sweet Maple that gets very busy during peak times on the weekend! This became one of my favorite places to have brunch in SF for their Asian flavor cuisine and wide options. I also must highlight the aesthetic of both the restaurant and meal items. 5/5 - Tornado Galbi Omurice - Savory and filling! The galbi is well-portioned with the rice provided, and the tornado egg on top of the rice made the whole dish look super put together and aesthetic. Great to share with plenty of sauce and perfect seasoning. If you want a hearty, savory dish for brunch, definitely check this one out! 5/5 Matcha Moffle - Not too sweet and perfectly cooked to be chewy and crunchy at the same time. The matcha flavor is present without being too overpowering, and the cream on the side makes each bite super satisfying. This dish is also great to share, and I can only wish we had 3 waffles for this meal!

dirty ube latte
Claudia L.

One of my go-to brunch spots! Sweet Maple is extremely popular and can get crowded, so be wary. Parking by this location is decently limited, so if it's a crowded day, you might have to park nearby on the street. Inside is bright and beautifully decorated, with sunlight coming in through the windows. We were luckily seated right by them, so we got to bathe in the sunlight. I ordered the dirty ube latte, french toast, and scrambled eggs. The french toast was delicious with the perfect crisp and softness to it and the bacon was perfectly cooked for me. I probably wouldn't order the dirty ube latte again, solely for the price point, but other than that, all the food was a win in my book.

Shelly S.

Great experience here at sweet maples. Food was so delicious and fresh and still came out at a decent time. Service was excellent! Very accommodating for gluten free accommodation for those with celiac disease/ severe gluten restriction.

Matcha Moffles (2 pieces) with strawberries on top
Linh N.

Final Thoughts: 4.00/5 This place technically should have been on my to-go list a while ago, but my friends had a really poor experience with this place, so I just never wanted to go. My friends did want to go here for brunch and so this opportunity for me to try it just came up. There was a little wait when we got there on a Saturday afternoon. I typically find that these places do get somewhat more crowded during these times because of the hype and optimal brunch times. Will vary depending on the day and time and perhaps by luck. Overall, I seemed to have a better experience than my other friends did. The food and drinks we got today were quite good. Our service was great and overall experience will be a 4 star today. Food: Tornado Galbi Omurice: 4.0/5 This was my choice today. It came with a galbi and vegetable fried rice base, scrambled eggs tornadoed on top, cherry peppers, galbi for protein, and the demi-glaze all around. The bulgogi is very tender and has a lot of flavor to it. While the vegetable rice does add another component to it, I personally would have preferred white rice with the vegetables on the side or something similar. This is just a personal preference. I just like the simplicity of an omurice dish with white rice though. The egg was nicely done. It's a very thin layer of egg, which I personally really like. It incorporates well into each bite. Demi-glaze was also quite umami, there's a nice balance of sweetness to it, which I enjoyed. Loco Moco: 4.0/5 This was my friend's dish and I was able try it today. The dish has a wagyu beef cutlet, sauted kimchi, bell peppers, mushrooms, onions, egg, and rice with gravy. The beef was juicy and the flavor was overall good. This was also something I contemplated to get. Very umami, some sweetness and a bit of a kick and acidity from the kimchi. Side of Fries: 4.2/5 We ordered a side of fries and these are really good. Their fried potatoes in general are really good because it's a nice crunch on the outside with some potato and body on the inside. This paired so well with their dipping sauce. Appears to be an aioli of sorts, but no one quote me on that. Matcha Moffle: 4.2/5 This is their matcha mochi waffle. The plate comes with two waffles and strawberries on top for some freshness. The texture of a mochi waffle is always my favorite because it's slightly chewy on the inside and crispy on the outside. The matcha flavor does come through and the matcha cream on the side gives it that additional kick of matcha. It doesn't need syrup or anything, but you can ask for it if you have a sweet tooth. My one minute note is the garnish. We could take this off, but the mint leaf just looked wilted on the hot waffle and was unappealing to have on that pretty plate of waffles. Drink: Matcha Paradise: 4.0/5 This drink is essentially a coconut water base with matcha cream on top. The sweetness was nice and it was really refreshing. The cream is thick, but incorporates well into the drink. My one note is that the matcha isn't too strong and I would have loved a deeper flavor for it. Otherwise, this drink is really refreshing. Sweetness was actually also quite good. --------- Quality: Their food seems alright. The dishes came out hot and crispy, so they appear to be made to order. The sweet potatoes were especially crispy and very delightful to bite into. The color of the matcha appears lighter and somewhat more oxidized to me, so I'm not sure what kind of matcha is used for this drink. My preference is a rich ceremonial grade matcha, which has a different color that is more bright and vibrant than this. Price: $$ -- $$$ The prices are definitely on the higher end. Price ranges will be between $15 to $25 with some outliers. Their portion sizes do appear of optimal size. I wasn't able to finish my food (as I never do), but it was a large enough portion. Given the food item though, some of these items can be considered more expensive than your average brunch spot. Service: Delightful Our servers were actually quite nice. There is one main person that helps you, but another waiter did come to serve us while we were trying to flag them down. This seems to be the expectation, but it's not usually the case sometimes. Food comes out within ample time and they do check on you. Ambiance: Cozy Brunch Vibes They have an indoors and outdoors seating area with tents for shade. The interior does look quite packed with tables. Very simple and modern interior though. Nothing fancy, but it does give café and brunch vibes. Location/Parking: Could be better. This place is located right at the corner of S. Blaney Avenue and Stevens Creek Blvd. It is located in it's own corner, which is nice. The parking is interesting though. You could literally just drive right in from the street to one of it's parking spots though, which is not ideal because getting out can be a little harder. They have spots all around, but very limited. Will say that this comes down to luck.

Blackstone
Aaron C.

Highlights: Good service - accommodating of stroller Good portion size Food: Blackstone Loco moco Blackstone Bacon was amazing! Portions were generous. Loco moco - as advertised, it had a kick, not a lot but more than the average loco moco. The gravy had a deep and maybe a slight tang which kept it lighter. Complemented the hearty sized beef patty. Portions were generous -- not just the rice but the meat. Ambiance/service: Wednesday around 8:30am, it wasn't very crowded but there were more ppl than I was expecting. I had called ahead to make sure it was fine to bring a stroller for the indoor seating. It was and they were okay with us sitting near the kitchen door though I asked for a table where the stroller was less in the way. They were fine with the table move since all we had were the waters at that point.

Chicken croffle, Bacon and chicken egg soufflé
Debbie N.

I love the atmosphere here. Very chill and calm place for a slow morning. Love their little table decor also. Service can feel a bit rushed since they try to take your plate away as soon as you finish. My friend plate was touched before she even finish her. Now about the food. I think the food are great but can be a bit more flavorful. I ended up adding a bunch of chalula onto my dish to get some flavor. However I still thing they are worth a try, everyone taste are different.

Bacon & scrambled egg
Sherilyn R.

Delicious Millionaire's Bacon! I love this with their salad! Came around Friday 1:15PM. Still quite busy. It wasn't too busy that every single table was taken and luckily we got parking. Servers are quick, polite and we got our drinks right away. I preferred the Milionaire's Bacon over the Millionaire's Candy. Felt like it had more substance and depth in flavor. I wasn't too impressed with the Holy Cow Salad. Rating 3/5. The sliced galbi did not taste good, tasted weirdly overcooked and under flavored. Everything else taste great! What saved it was the Millionaire's Bacon with the salad which made it taste wayyy better. And the additional scramble egg was a solid too. Matcha Latte was just right, it isn't the best I ever tasted but it fulfilled my cravings for the time being. Plenty of space inside for various side groups. Great for singles, couples and families! Parking? Yes; parking lot, it might get too full at peak time so there is probably some other street parking nearby. Restroom? Yes; wheelchair & handicap may need some assistance depending on stall availability.

I noticed other tables had a carafe of water, so while we waited for our food, I asked someone to bring us some too. It would be cool if it was standard to bring it by so I didn't flag someone down to ask for it. I got the tofu lettuce wraps with a side of fries and a passionfruit lemonade. The lettuce that came with my order was dirty, you could see the actual dirt on it. It's good that it's fresh, but I'd prefer washed lettuce. I mentioned it to a server, and she happily took it away to replace it with fresh lettuce. The new lettuce was wet, so at least I know it was washed. The sauce with the tofu was really tasty, but I wish they marinated the tofu overnight so it could soak up more flavor. The fries were crispy, and the lemonade was refreshing, though I think it could use more passionfruit flavor. My friend got the spicy fried chicken sandwich. She said the chicken was very moist, the coleslaw was good, and she really liked the sauce. The only thing she didn't like was the bun, she said it tasted like low-quality bread and was too crumbly. We had to wait a while for someone to come by so we could ask for the check. My friend pointed out that they didn't check on us much after we got our food. I think the servers are very kind when you can flag someone down, but they could probably benefit from QR code ordering or checkout, since it seemed like only two people were serving the entire restaurant (inside and out).

There is ample parking, as this restaurant is hotel-adjacent (Treehouse Hotel Silicon Valley,) but don't let that fool you or you'll truly be missing out.

Tried Hero Ranch Kitchen for my husband's birthday last Tuesday night. We found street parking…read moreabout a block away and reported to the outside stand for our 7 pm reservation. The hostess was very friendly and showed us to our table. We had a table inside, which was an intimate upscale casual area with a bar. We ordered the stuffed mushrooms for a starter. It was so hard to pick one because everything on the menu sounds so good. Alas, I have a small appetite. The mushrooms were very tasty and a nice start to our meal. For entrees, we had the halibut and prime filet with a side of broccolini. Everything was cooked perfectly and was delicious. Drinks are on the pricey side- I had a Hero Old Fashioned and the Taylor Made, $20 each. They were nicely crafted, so worth the price. They brought out a Carmel Popcorn Sundae for my husband's birthday and even gave him a birthday card which I thought was a nice touch. Service was slow and steady. We had ample time to enjoy our food without feeling rushed, but never felt like our server forgot about us. We spent about 2 hours for dinner. Probably not a place to go if you're in a hurry. I'm eager to return and try some more of the starters. It's the kind of place I'd love to take out of town guests - high quality fine dining in a casual and relaxed environment.

I took my partner out for our anniversary to Hero Ranch Kitchen and made reservations with…read moreOpenTable with a note about it being our special day. The restaurant had a nice visual ambience, but also felt casual as there was a lot of chatter, which isn't a bad thing depending on what you're looking for. Our waiter was especially friendly and helped us decide what to order. I really wish I could remember his name, as I'm posting this a bit late, but he was a huge reason why we had a great experience! Here's a quick rating on the food itself: Stuffed mushrooms (3.5/5): This was recommended by the waiter as a favorite among patrons. The mushrooms weren't bad or anything, but for some reason, it gave me combination pizza vibes that I wasn't expecting. It was good, but I wouldn't go out of my way to order it again personally. Bone-in ribeye (5/5): an amazing cut that was cooked perfectly. Exactly what you would expect from a good steakhouse. The compound butter was fantastic! Bone-in apricot glazed pork chop (3.5/5): this one may hit different for different folks. The pork was perfectly cooked and juicy, but the apricot glaze was definitely a little too sweet for our palettes. If you're looking for something more savory, I might try something else. But hey, sweet might be your thing too! Caramel popcorn sundae (4.5/5): we got this one complimentary for being our special day, which was a really nice surprise! And it was a full serving! This one was obviously sweet, but surprisingly more subdued than it sounds, which was really nice! Overall, it was truly a memorable night with great food. And though some things didn't quite work for our palettes, I can totally see that it may for others--so that didn't impact my ratings because they were still good--just not for us. That said, the care that we received on our anniversary was what truly made me land on a 5/5 rating. Definitely coming back for future special occasions!
