What We Do

Maple Ave is a small, chef-owned modern European restaurant in Vienna, Virginia, serving seasonal prix-fixe dinner and brunch.

Some call us quirky, some call us adorable. One thing is definite, you won’t find another place quite like it around here. It’s a tiny, no-frills European bistro, with warm service, original cooking, and a little bit of whimsy. Our surroundings are simple and casual. We put our energy into the food and the people who come through our door.

Two People, One Restaurant

Maple Ave is truly a two-person operation. Chef Justė runs the kitchen and GM Ricardo takes care of the dining room. We are partners in life and in business and together we handle just about everything else in the restaurant.

When handled by one chef, high-quality seasonal ingredients and thoughtful preparation yield food that is original, thoughtful, and constantly changing. Our four-course dinner prix-fixe menu evolves with the natural seasons and when we get inspired by new ingredients or experiences. The weekend brunch is also prix fixe, and the menu is refreshed throughout the year.

Keeping the restaurant small allows us to be hands-on with both the cooking and the hospitality. There are just 10 tables and 26 seats in our roughly 200-square-foot dining room. It’s not fancy or formal and we’d rather provide warm, personal service and carefully prepared food in a simple setting.

A Little History

Maple Ave opened in 2009 in the original Anita’s building on Maple Avenue in Vienna.

Over the years, we’ve been lucky enough to be featured on FOX 5 DC and in The New York Times, Northern Virginia Magazine, The Washington Post, Eater DC, Washingtonian, and other publications. Northern Virginia Magazine has named us to its 50 Best Restaurants list, ranking #3 in 2018 and #9 in 2022.

We’re grateful for the recognition, but our goal has always been simple: to provide good food, genuine hospitality, quality, value, and a dose of character to your dining experience.
