The greens were fresh as well and didnt find any chewy hard parts (stalk). Minus 1 star because the amount of protein is so little, like 4 tiny pieces of chicken shawarma.

This was Tulip Grill before so I don't know what it looks like now since the hubby picked up our order. Parking is not too bad but be aware that it can get busy due to DD, Lantern Sushi & Roy's are nearby. They notified my hubby that they needed 5 more minutes to get all our order cooked, and put together. Minor comment- though I like the flavor both green and tamarind sauces were a little thin. I like a thicker sauce for dipping. Also the fries though well-seasoned could be crunchier. Still highly recommend trying them out. I have two more meals from my platter.

Everything on the menu is packing a fairly hefty punch of flavor, and the servings are generous. There was a short line when I arrived, but the counter-style service moved pretty quickly and the staff are very friendly and helpful. Sometimes counter-style is surly and brusque; not here. The staff go out of their way to make sure that you get all the toppings you might enjoy. As a first-time customer, I appreciated that. The shop itself is small with some seating but nobody was dining in; this was not because it's not popular (see the aforementioned line), I think they're just primarily geared towards takeout. I'll definitely be back, especially if I'm in the neighborhood anyway.

I had the Indonesian Stir-Fry with added grilled chicken. The sauce was peanut-based, with lime. I chose a bed of Soba (buckwheat) noodles. I enjoyed the umami flavor of the sauce with the tangy and full flavor profile that makes the dish a joy to eat. I plan to return to The Orchard on my next trip to Frederick.

I wanted to enjoy my experience at The Orchard, and overall the salad was good. I initially asked…read morefor kombucha, but I was told they were completely out. Thankfully, my server did allow me to substitute the sesame chicken into my Cobb salad, and that was actually a great addition. The frustrating part was that after we had already finished our meals and were ready to leave, my server came back and told me she had been mistaken and that they did, in fact, have kombucha available. At that point it was too late, and unfortunately there wasn't any offer made to make up for the inconvenience. Another disappointment was learning that The Orchard does not offer any type of military appreciation or support. In a community with many veterans and military families, that was something I noticed and found disappointing. Many other local businesses make an effort to show appreciation, and that kind of support goes a long way for those who have served and for those who have made the ultimate sacrifice. The food was good, but with so many other options in Frederick that offer great food while also making customers and the community feel valued, I don't think I'll be returning. A business's connection to its community matters, and supporting those who have served is something I personally look for when deciding where to spend my money.

Does the Panera Bread's Balsamic Greens with Grains salad contain an uninvited ingredient…read more I love the Balsamic Greens with Grains salad. However, as I was eating it, I noticed that as I got to the bottom of the salad, the type of greens changed from mixed greens to iceberg lettuce. Is this iceberg lettuce? It looked like and tasted like iceberg lettuce? Where is the romaine lettuce? On the Panera Bread's website, the list of ingredients included mixed greens and romaine lettuce (see images of mixed greens and romaine lettuce). The list did not include iceberg lettuce. I paid for mixed greens and romaine lettuce in my salad. The romaine lettuce was absent from my salads and the iceberg lettuce appeared to have been used to replace it in my salad. Looking at the bottom of my salad, it appears be a deceitful action to put the iceberg lettuce at the bottom of the salad. It appears that the action was to insult my intelligence. If this was iceberg lettuce, it was an uninvited ingredient in my salad. If this was iceberg lettuce, why was it added to my salad without my knowledge? Panera Bread, I hope that I am not being taken advantage of by the omission of the ingredients that I paid for in my salad.

Did local boy Joey Madrones open his own joint? I know there is beer involved so I grab my co workers and we head on over to Madrones. We're here during the week and the place is jumpin'! I did not make a reservation and was able to snag a table with no wait. The beer selection is quite substantial with 24 beers on tap. I ordered a Hefeweizen to get the dinner party started. I started with the Fried Chesapeake Oysters. I mean, we're in Maryland so seafood is a must. The fried oysters were plump and quite tasty. Madrones is known for their Prime Rib so I ordered a small cut to start. The Au Jus along with the steak was a perfect cut for me. Served with the right cook on the steak, I recommend Madrones when you're in the mood for Prime Rib. I finished with Madrones Peanut Butter Pie, Mmm mm! Madrones, great meal!

We wanted a memorable place to mark the occasion and chose Showroom. I even noted both celebrations when making our reservation a week in advance. The hostess was friendly and kind, although clearer direction on where to wait would have helped. The front entrance was congested, and we felt like we were in everyone's way. Unfortunately, the service never matched the occasion. Our server never introduced themselves or acknowledged either celebration. They began taking orders without any engagement, and throughout the meal we were repeatedly unable to get their attention. I understand Sunday brunch is busy, but I work in a concierge-driven environment and was genuinely disappointed by the lack of hospitality. The food was mixed. The chicken and waffles and the omelet were good. My husband's steak was cold and the portion was very small. He ordered French fries but received unseasoned potatoes that lacked any flavor. My fish and chips were fine but also lacked seasoning, lemon, or any attention to detail. I specifically requested fries without Old Bay but received fries heavily coated in it. We also ordered a steak and eggs meal to go, which took about 30 minutes. When it was opened later, it contained only three small slices of steak. My brother-in-law genuinely thought he had been given someone's leftovers because the portion was so disappointing. My husband quietly paid the $300 bill while I still hoped someone might acknowledge the birthday or retirement with a simple mention, smile, or thank you. It never happened. We were never even offered a desert menu. We left without a goodbye or any acknowledgment from the staff. Disappointed doesn't begin to describe how we felt. We had many options in Frederick but chose Showroom because we expected a special experience. I could tell my family didn't want to complain because I had spoken so highly of the restaurant, but they were equally underwhelmed. Please do better.
