Great Maple (a “Modern American Eatery,” as it informs us), fits so nicely on the ground floor of the newly branded The Paseo (formerly The Paseo Colorado) — giving the ground floor a point, a direction, a central vector — that it’s hard to believe it hasn’t always been there.
Bacon plays a big role at Great Maple. So does maple. The pecan wood-smoked bacon in the salad is scrumptious, but it’s their maple chile bacon that graces things like mac & cheese.
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.
