I had my heart set on Great Maple, so my mother and I snuck away from the rest of the family to brunch. When we arrived to the restaurant, it was bustling and busy—with a line out the door.
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.
