The staff at Descanso Gardens Restaurant are attentive and kind, but the management definitely needs improvement. This review is based on my visit on April 14, 2019, when I celebrated my birthday, though I've encountered similar problems on other visits. Despite having a reservation for two on a Sunday, we waited 30 minutes for our table. When I reserve, I expect the table to be ready, but we waited just as long as walk-ins. To make things worse, it took over 20 minutes to get our check. Our server, Jamie, was incredibly sweet but was overwhelmed by a rude and demanding group, doing her best to keep up. These issues seem to lie with management rather than the staff. The food was decent, mayb...
Maple's staff is thoughtful and attentive, but the management could use a LOT of work. This review is about my visit 4/14/19 to celebrate my birthday, but I've had multiple similar experiences fwiw. We had a reservation for 2 on Sunday but still had towait 30 minutes for a table. When I make reservations, I expect the restaurant to *reserve* seats for me; instead, we waitedjust as long as walk-ins. To make matters worse, it took 20+ minutes for us to get the check. My server, Jamie, was so sweet,but she was dealing with a terribly rude and picky party by herself and she was running (literally) all over the place. Again,these are clearly management problems. The food was fine, maybe even good...
Terrible service at this restaurant. I suggest they make it reservation only instead of telling guests it will only be a 30 minute wait, and then extending that wait to 35... then 40... and then finally 55 minutes later. The hostess was just pickingnames, not paying attention to who arrived first and reservations. After being seated after almost an hour wait time, I washoping the food would at least redeem the restaurant for such awful service, but no. Cold food. The service was unacceptable andI am embarrassed for the restaurant. For a weekend brunch place, you would think they would know how to handle this muchtraffic, but it seemed like they were very unorganized. sorry to say I won’t be...
The service at Descanso Gardens Restaurant was very disappointing. They should consider switching to a reservation-only system instead of promising a 30-minute wait that kept increasing to 35, then 40, and finally 55 minutes. The hostess seemed to call names randomly, disregarding the order of arrival and reservations. After waiting nearly an hour to be seated, I hoped the menu would redeem the experience, but the food arrived cold. The overall service was unacceptable, and I feel embarrassed for the restaurant. For a weekend brunch spot, better crowd management is expected, but they seemed quite disorganized. Unfortunately, I won’t be returning or recommending Descanso Gardens Restaurant to...

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our first time visit at this resturant. He had the French Toast, which was thick and rich, served with fresh orange slices and I had the Maple Delta, the equivalent of a decadent BLT spilling over thick slices ofciabetta bread. Our server, Rozette, was friendly helpful and attentive. We made reservations online, which was super helpfuland easy, we had only a few minutes wait time on a very busy day. Overall we were very pleased with the entire experience.
My husband and I had a wonderful first visit to Descanso Gardens Restaurant. He ordered the French Toast, which was thick and flavorful, accompanied by fresh orange slices, while I enjoyed the Maple Delta—a decadent BLT overflowing with hearty ciabatta bread. Our server, Rozette, was friendly, attentive, and very helpful. Making reservations online was easy and convenient, and we only waited a few minutes despite the busy day. Overall, we were very satisfied with the entire experience.
I'm looking forward to returning here soon! I can't wait to check out the new menu. I visited with my sister for a stroll through Descanso Gardens followed by brunch. Everything we ordered was delicious, well-prepared, and fresh. I truly enjoyed all the dishes we tried. Although it’s a cozy space, I believe it can still accommodate moderately sized groups comfortably.
Update: Excited to be heading back here soon! Can't wait to see what's on the menu. I went here with my sister for a walk around Descanso Gardens and brunch. Everything we ordered was tasty, made well, and fresh. I enjoyed everything we had. It's asmaller space but I think it would still work for moderately sized groups.
