Best Farm To Table Restaurants in Rancho San Diego

Our dinner at Great Maple in Hillcrest was an absolutely wonderful experience from start to finish. The food was delicious, with every dish bursting with flavor. We particularly enjoyed the truffle fries and the rich, tender maple bacon doughnuts—both of which were perfect starters. For the main course, the fried chicken sandwich was cooked to perfection, juicy and flavorful, and the French toast was ENORMOUS and delicious. What truly made the evening special was the service. Our waitress was terrific—attentive, friendly, and incredibly kind to our children. She took the time to engage with them, making sure they felt comfortable and taken care of throughout the meal. It’s not often you experience such genuine warmth from a server, and it truly added to the overall positive vibe of the evening. The atmosphere of Great Maple is cozy and welcoming, with a modern yet comfortable vibe that made us feel at home. We left feeling satisfied and already looking forward to our next visit. Highly recommend for both families and anyone looking for a great dining experience in San Diego!

We were there mid afternoon Christmas Day. It wasn’t to crouched and the service was good. Food was great. They have a nice patio dining area and an open air bar that were fairly quiet, but I did notice inside was kind of noisy due to all hard surfaces. Overall very nice experience.

What a wonderful place to be on Christmas day( Fantastic fixed menu, fantastic drinks and what a very attentive staff from front desk to service. I want to thank Bill, my server for the evening and all the wonderful team members who worked on Christmas day to make someone else s day special. The view from any point of view is breathtaking. The chef and team should take a bow for the menu and the bartender for a wonderful mango Durango cocktail. What a gem of a restaurant, so classy, so chic so special. Keep up the great 5 Star service. I also appreciate the many times the manager and staff checked on a single woman. I felt so special.

The food was amazingly fresh. Overall a great experience.
