This place was pretty good. I had been meaning to try it for awhile and finally did. The interior is cute and clean, and the staff very friendly. The menu has a lot of interesting options and I'd like to try one of the apps or a stir fry. The only thing I can speak for is the soup (potato and leek) and the house salad with chicken salad as the protein. The soup was absolutely delicious - great flavor, not overly or under salty. Only thing I wished is that is had some chunks of vegetables rather than being 100% blended to make it a little heartier. Great flavor though. The house salad was good but was lacking in toppings - I enjoyed all the toppings it had, but the amount of each topping was very small. Especially the avocado I added, it wasn't even a quarter of an avocado for an extra $2. Most places will give you half an avocado when you add it. The chicken salad was not good on the other hand. The chicken pieces were cut WAY too large and extremely dry, the dressing basically tasted like just Mayo and sugar maybe? It was oddly sweet. It had exactly one piece of celery and a half of a grape. Also a very small portion of that on the salad. The creamy garlic dressing basically just tastes like ranch (it is yummy) and the tomato tamari dressing was pretty good as well, just a little sweet for me. Wish there were more sprouts, pickled onions, and tomatoes on there, only got 2 cherry tomatoes. The salad had mostly lettuce and carrots. For being an almost $14 salad you'd expect more toppings. I did like it but was disappointed in the quantity of topping and the flavor of my added protein. I also did not receive the homemade bread the menu stated my salad would come with, which I was exited to try! I would like to give this place another shot even after the underwhelming salad, but at $23 for a soup and a salad with not many toppings, I hope next visit is better! read more

The Orchard - House salad with Chicken Salad and added avocado. - Seafood Near Me - Frederick, Maryland

Shopping with my family in Frederick,MD we decided to eat at The Orchard. Busy little restaurant. Nicely decorated. Our waiter was informative on the specials of the day. No soda here. We all ordered unsweetened ice tea. The menu is very healthy and caters to vegan. Neither of which excites my taste buds or desires in a restaurant. I ordered the crispy chicken sandwich. Probably the least healthy menu item. Excellent flavor on fresh bread. Very small sandwich and it does not come with a side of anything for ten bucks. I've never been to a restaurant that did not have a side with sandwich. Needless to say I left very hungry. My Aunt and cousins enjoyed their stir fry. To me not one of their 3 meals looked appetizing. I won't go back but I would recommend it to my health conscious friends. read more

An eclectic and vegetarian-friendly restaurant in the heart of Frederick's downtown, this place offered a number of fascinating stir-fries, but also a fried tofu and hummus sandwich which I sampled, an odd combination but a successful one. The accompanying sprouts and fruit were welcome touches as well, and the price was right. The menu is clearly marked for dietary concerns, and likely offers something for just about anyone. There was a line to get in on a Saturday evening, and I would recommend getting there early. read more

Fresh food in Frederick. *now say it three times fast* No but seriously good food. And adorable atmosphere. Outdoor seating and pup friendly. I ordered a cold mug of apple cider and a hot cup of cauliflower corn chowder to start and they both hit the spot. They off beer and wine and kombucha ! Try the avo and Brie sandwich with the tomato tahini dressing it's sooooo good. Their menu is a good mix of stir fries, Sandwhiches and melts, salads and both carnivorous and vegan options. Centrally locatesd for strolling the shops afterwards as well. read more

Incredible food and service! The pasta with the zucchini parmesan was one of the best I've ever had. I left very full and happy!

Such great food! And safe for gluten free individuals. My brother in law has a severe gluten allergy and they were so accommodating and made delicious food that didn't comprise on quality or flavor. Their fusion is fun and fresh. Definitely a must try. read more

Food was bland and downright inedible. The people who work there are absolutely lovely but the food was a huge disappointment in both texture and taste :( read more

True hidden gem. Best, most delicious and fresh food put together in the most creative way, in a casual clean atmosphere and kind attentive staff for the most affordable price. I can't say enough positive things about this place. The menu has stir fry dishes inspired by places all over world - Peru, Thailand, Cuba, Mediterranean, etc. All the dishes use fresh ingredients and there's endless quality vegetarian options at a crazy affordable price!!! Place is apparently closed on Mondays so the kitchen can be restocked with fresh ingredients, locally produced. Staff was kind and comfortably attentive. Atmosphere is casual clean - good for small group of friends (4 or less), first or second date, eating by yourself. Wandered in here when I realized the restaraunt I intended to go to had a lame menu and was overpriced. read more

Hands down the best chill restaurant in downtown Frederick. There are great options for vegetarians/vegans, but they have options for everyone. Love the coconut shrimp and the Southwest chicken sandwich. The homemade bread on their sandwiches is ridiculously good!! Every time family comes to visit, we always make a stop here. Helps that the service is always quick and friendly, too. read more

We've eaten twice and have really enjoyed it. Food is tasty and made in-house with local products. They have several tasty gluten-free options and servers are willing to answer questions about ingredients in the dishes, which is helpful for diners with dietary restrictions. read more

Love this restaurant! The food is fabulous and staff is polite and attentive. Many vegetarian and Healthy choices!

We ordered take out. I got the Chinese Stir Fry... it tasted bland. Glad there was a lot of veggies though. But I really expected to taste ginger since it's listed as the sauce. You know that feeling when you're starving and think you can eat anything... that's how I was feeling but could not finish eating my meal. You can taste watermelon more than this stir fry. My toddler was disappointed with the smokey flavored grilled cheese. My husbands salmon sandwich was good. The bread was soft and had that freshly baked appeal. We appreciate the orange slice and half strawberry. The coconut shrimp was good, but the dipping sauce looked like watered down translucent sweet and sour. Honestly, Costco does a better coconut shrimp. All in all, $80 later and still hungry. We will not return here because it's too much of a crapshoot. read more

Lucked out with scoring an outdoor table (a total of about 5) on the patio. I had the ahi tuna salad, it wa s decent for $13, the salad was basic but tasteful. Tables were not really 6 feet away, but I think they are trying to keep everyone safe. read more

We had a gift certificate for The Orchard for awhile and now I'm kicking myself for not using it sooner because we really enjoyed our dinner there last night. The ambiance was really nice; very peaceful and welcoming. Kind of feels like a friend's home rather than a restaurant. The menu was right up my alley, too. All kinds of sandwiches and salads and a whole arsenal of stir-fried dishes and other entrees. I had the Japanese stir-fry with shrimp. It had a ton of vegetables and the sauce was perfect. My husband had a southwest chicken sandwich and we got onion and mushroom tempura to share. All was very fresh, tasty and nicely done. We are definitely fans of this cozy spot. read more

The Orchard - Good mushrooms. Served with a creamy garlic sauce. - Seafood Near Me - Frederick, Maryland

3.5 stars. No parking - It took time to find a parking spot and the meter ripped us off but there was no wait at the restaurant. The menu is easy to follow. The service is noticeably good. The place is noticeably clean. Each stir fry is made with a different mix of vegetables. We ordered two Japanese stir fry dishes, one with tofu and one shrimp. The food is fresh, had a nice aroma and tastes good. The tofu version has considerably more oil. They tell us it absorbs it during cooking but it was a pond on the bottom of her plate. We drove an hour to get here and would eat here again if we are in the area but wouldn't make a special trip. read more

My husband and I have been sleeping on The Orchard for two decades! Flabbergasted that somehow we'd failed to check it out and as Frederick folks we are so glad we finally did. Everything we ordered was superb-the best part was the thoughtful addition of finishing details. The coconut shrimp has a nice light dipping sauce. The salad had pickled onion and sprouts to die for, the stir fries...COVID practices made us feel extremely safe. Staff was friendly and accommodating of our low carb requests! read more

What a great place for lighter fare! However don't worry, if you want some deep fried tempura goodies, take your pick from the orchard. The ambiance reminds me of my non-Asian friend's grandparents place. It's quaint and charming. Don't expect sleek and modern but a place where you can find a nice rocking chair tucked away somewhere... There were a couple of tables outside and young tatted up staff which was was cool. Hipster but you knew who was in the kitchen was churning out some good eats! Ask for all the sauces because they were so delicious! (Hot sauce was like a spicy BBQ, horseradish was a bit chunky and oh so good). Got the perfectly battered and fried zucchini tempura with horseradish dip. Came out piping hot! I liked how the batter stuck to the zucchini. Portobello pita wth the perfect amount of tomato, onion, and cheese. Don't know what the light red sauce was but I didn't even need it and I usually love the sauces! Not to discount it's tangy creamy counterpart but the mushroom was just seasoned so perfectly. Got the raspberry orange rice pudding special of the day and the raspberry cobbler... Amazing. I usually don't like desserts but for the first time in a long time, I wanted more. Would def. go back if I'm in the area! Wish there was better parking but how can you complain? The place is probably packed bc the food is so good! read more

Very nice lunch spot. I ordered the cup of tomato bisque and tofu vegetable salad. Both tasted a bit salty, but overall very good. The salad had nicely cooked sesame tofu and very yummy hummus. I tried the garlic dressing which I enjoyed. It had a unique taste. My boyfriend ordered the avocado sandwich with chicken. He liked it very much. read more

This place is great! Tons of "hippie" food - natural stuff, organic stuff, vegan stuff. Lots of meat dishes, too! Very eclectic menu - lots of different tastes are represented in pasta or sandwich or salad dishes. Very friendly staff! Very clean restaurant! Decent prices abound! This was the perfect pick-me-up when we got a flat tire and decided to just stop off in Frederick for the day instead of continuing to our original destination. read more

The service was good, we ordered for pickup by phone and they were helpful and polite. However when we got home, we found the food to be of poor quality. The spicy tenders were obviously low quality and the first bite was cartilage, and they were somewhat soggy. The Indonesian stir fry noodles were horrible - some soggy, others stiff. Overall the food was average at best. Unfortunately I would not recommend this restaurant even though the staff was polite and helpful read more

Got 2 different Asian bowls and so disappointed. The sauces felt watered down. Sigh, at least it was healthy.

What a cute trendy place! The atmosphere is laid back but has a really cool vibe inside. All the ingredients seemed fresh and tastes pretty good. I got the portabella sandwich with Brie cheese which was tasty and juicy. We also ordered the fruit and cheese plate. Delish! I really like the combination of cheese and fruit. They complimented each other well. This place was just a really nice place to eat and hang out. Nothing completely stood out to me. But their food is good and seemed fresh when we ate there. So go ahead and give it a try! :) read more

We were visiting Frederick for a night with our pup and were looking for a place with outdoor seating and vegan options. The orchard was a great choice! I had the crispy sesame tofu and fried rice. It was good, but the tofu was not very crispy which I found disappointing since it said crispy in the menu item title description. The fried rice was similarly not very crispy, but it all had good flavor. It was a little expensive for what you got. Other dishes we had were the special eggplant parm and another crispy tofu dish. Both were good. Overall, I would definitely go back but try something different. read more

Where to start here, they singled me out as a Hispanic With a table of three other white people said that our table was loud so they could serve the white people at the table but not me. For reference there were only white people around us but they said it was because my voice "carried" other people complained so we are supposed to take it. That's fine we can take it in the chin we obviously are not important read more

This review is for vegetarian items only..which actually were quite a lot on the item. The service was quick and friendly. We got the vege tempura, the mushroom and pita dip thing which were very very good. For main i got the moroccan chickpea soup, the zuccini parmesan with a side of penne in cream sauce. It was a lot of food..but everything was really good. The soup was flavorfull too. The picky eating toddler got the tofu with salad and fruit and he ate it all. read more

Menu has a variety of selections for lunch and dinner. Everything is fresh and healthy. The Waitstaff is friendly and thorough.

This is a trendy place with pricing to match. The amount of food you get doesn't seem like much compared to the price you pay. Without drinks, dinner will set you back about $100 for 4 people with only one appetizer shared. Let's talk food, I had the Polynesian Stir Fry with tofu. Tasted excellent. Came with brown rice and veggies. Hubby had the Szechuan Stir Fry with tofu. It needed less sweet and more heat. Third guest had non vegan Tomato Bisque with Grilled Cheese and loved it. Fourth guest had non vegan Breaded Fish Special and loved it. The shared appetizer was Tempura Zucchini. Tasted great. The restaurant was very clean and as I said trendy. The server did a great job. Overall I am glad this place had vegan options just wish the price point was better. read more
