Among the new array of eats coming to Westfield UTC is a fresh location of Great Maple, the modern American eatery that debuted in Hillcrest in 2013 but was first founded at Fashion Island in Newport Beach in 2011.
Not just a common compliment among syrup makers, Great Maple’s a fancied-up ’60s diner with a bit of European flair, coming at you from the guys who brought you Hash House a-Go-Go and The Tractor Room.
San Diego restauranteur Johnny Rivera, of Fifth Avenue’s Hash House A Go Go and The Tractor Room, is weeks away from opening the doors of his latest venture, Great Maple.
“Wow. Wow. Wow.” Those were the first three words that came out of my mouth after just one bite of the new Salmon Wellington entrée just added to the menu at Great Maple in Fashion Island.
