    A lot of places can make great food, but Maple Street makes it an experience that I highly…read morereccomend doing. Everyone, from the community leader (imagine a revolving greeter and hospitality expert) to the person bussing but still making time to say how good your food looks, gives top-level service. it's as if they could enjoy living at work if they wanted to. There are also various options to supoort local other than just eating there with apparel and artwork. The options are great from breakfast/brunch to more lunch/brunch options. finally: the food. juicy, tender chicken. Fluffy and flavorful biscuits. creamy gravy and other mouth-watering sauce options. their biscuits are designed with flavor profile and balance in mind. Last, but not least, the coffee. you -must- get it with maple syrup in it. dont you dare knock it till you try it. literally thee best biscuit spot in all the tampa bay area and arguably one of the best brunch spots in DTSP.

There seemed to an ample seating indoors and they had tables outside as well. We ordered a bacon and egg biscuit and Chicken (strips) and waffles. The chicken strips had a nice flavor that blended well with the syrup and waffles. The waffles were perfectly cooked and fluffy. Both choices were filling and could easily be shared between two people. There was a gentleman walking the floor checking on patrons, cleaning and bussing tables. There was also a friendly chatter in the air. We will definitely dine here again.

The whole space is effortlessly beautiful without feeling intimidating. Warm lighting, open kitchen energy, gorgeous plating, and a crowd that somehow all look like they have excellent taste. Very elevated coastal Mediterranean dinner party energy. The menu changes often, which honestly makes the whole experience feel even more special. The house made pastas, seafood dishes, and anything involving fresh bread seem to have people fully obsessed. Also hearing consistently dangerous things about the whipped feta and crudo situation. What I love most is that nothing feels overdone or overly trendy. It's refined but still relaxed enough that you can actually enjoy yourself instead of feeling like you're at a performance. Definitely one of those places where dinner casually turns into a three hour event and nobody's mad about it.

He made sure the wine bucket was filled with ice. We started with perfectly shucked oysters and grated horseradish, not out of a jar! The crudo was also a good start. I love Cacio e Pepe but I didn't catch on the menu about have mushrooms. It was still good. My wife got the Tagine which was Monk fish, which is a flaky white fish from Florida, and vegetables. We sat outside which is perfect for watching the parade of people on Beach Drive.
