Service was immaculate, the atmosphere was great as well. Staff were super friendly. The challah and the butter were the highlight, the rest of the food was fine.

Really wanted to love it here, unfortunately everything fell flat. It was good not great and none of the dishes were remarkable. The dinner felt quite rushed, we weren’t offered any additional drinks. Dessert was well below average, it tasted like burnt olive oil (chocolate mousse).
Wouldn’t return but was glad I tried it.

Surprised that the reviews (4.9!!! at time of writing) were so high, so came in with big expectations. It was reasonably priced, in fairness.
Food. Was a little disappointed, everything was ‘okay’ except the chicken schnitzel which was very good. Menu is set out as small plates, when in reality most were side dishes and cannot be eaten on their own. If we’d known this up front, we’d have ordered differently. Instead we ordered 5 dishes, three came out together and we were done it 45 minutes. Not much of a night out.
Dessert was a bit of a problem. Only two options, a non-bake cheesecake and mousse which implies there isn’t really a pastry chef. Mousse was very average, sorry.
Atmosphere, is fine but a bit meh. It’s fine but no real vibe. Old music playlist of classic songs etc on a Friday night. Nothing original or distinctive.
Service. Really nice staff and pretty attentive but we felt rushed and once we’d finished a drink we had to flag someone down.
Has potential to be good, but having been to Libby’s recently, this place isn’t close to that level yet.

Excellent restaurant. The food was amazing and service attentive to details. Highly recommend the Challah buns with chicken liver mousse, and the Chicken schnitzel, simply delicious.

Maven did not disappoint. We went for our anniversary and the food, staff and ambience couldn't be better. The schnitzel was stellar, challa buns exceptional and the entire experience wonderful. The owner visited each table and was kind enough to share her Bubbie's coleslaw recipe. You can tell that the staff are well treated as they are happy, work together as a team and seem to like what they are doing. My only criticism would be to improve the drink options . Five star rating!

Really nice spot with some terrific attention to detail
What a find. Casual restaurant with incredible food. The service was top notch with a waiter always available when you needed one. The challah was fluffy and we had the chicken liver mousse spread with sour cherry which complemented the mousse perfectly. We both had the schnitzel which was the best we have ever had. The poatoes were nice and crispy with a lot of flavour. We will definitely come back.

Just had our second meal at Maven and it was fantastic! We sat on the patio and felt like we were in Brooklyn. Surrounded by trees and elegant Annex homes, we sipped delicious cocktails (the “Oy Vey” is lemony citrus heaven), munched on the everything seedy cashews (soooooooo yum) and then dove into all the sharables . The shishito peppers, spinach and cheese blintzes, cauliflower and the now famous coleslaw were to die for! We finished it all off with the chocolate mousse, which was divine!!!The whole team at Maven is dedicated to warm, attentive service. They care and they show it. We will be back soon. The menu changes with the seasons so can’t wait to experience what’s in store next! Thank you Shauna and the team. What a wonderful evening!!!!

Great if you're bringing a picky eater out. My duck cholent was just duck on top of cholent, but both components were very well cooked.

Delicious food, excellent service. Green beans, tomato salad, trout, challa with live pate all incredible and our server was a total pro. Will definitely go back.
