    SALMON BLT
    Brianna J.

    Came to this establishment on a Sunday for their bottomless mimosa brunch with my family. When we walked in, it took about 1 to 3 minutes for anybody to approach us. The person who did approach us was not the friendliest and informed us that there were no small tables, and that there was an event going on and that we could not have brunch at the restaurant. We left, and as we were looking for a new restaurant to go to a woman walked out of the restaurant and came up to us and told us that we could come and have brunch at the restaurant and allowed us to join in their Christmas themed event that they had going on. The event was very nice all of the people who were running the event were very sweet and the food and ambience were great.

    Amazing brunch I know some people said it went downhill but I think the food quality hasn't changed and thoroughly enjoyed my food

    So irritating to make a reservation here. I made one for 4 and wanted to change to 5 and they "couldn't" because they "didn't have space." What a joke. We showed up and there were three empty tables that remained empty next to us during the duration of our visit. I had asked over the phone while making the reservation if we could just pull up an extra chair. "Absolutely not because they wouldn't be able to provide us good service. Okay.. so we came for my birthday brunch. I wanted to try something new and give this place a chance. Mistake. The only good thing was the drink I had. The food was crap LOL my friends' meals literally looked like a high school cafeteria meal like literal dog food. They were really upset. On top of that there was a large and extremely annoying and loud party of about 15 girls in the same room as us. They kept screaming and halfway through our time here, I watched an employee take a chair and give them the ability to add to their table but I had to tell my friend she couldn't come because they couldn't accommodate even one more person at our table (even though there was space). This place is a joke and we all couldn't wait to leave. Save your time and money and go to Eggspectation or First Watch.

    Ive been for brunch a few times and each time it was pretty good. Service isnt always the quickest but the drinks are strong so I appreciate the extra time to sober up lol. I know they still do bottomless but after one or two im done so ive never taken part. Food wise i also have no complaint. I typically stick to the brunch options but everything ive put in my mouth here is good. There is a good amount of parking around back that i dont think people realize but its so easy to get a paid spot and to come in through the back door, I would like to try the patio out once the weather breaks but I will for sure be back.

    Nice quiet setting. They have 2 sides and 2 bars to enjoy yourself. One side with bigger bar has more dining room sitting. Other side has smaller bar with smaller dining area that can be arranged to fit a large group if needed. Started with a nice portion sized Caesar salad. Entree was the steak frites. Steak was cooked to the perfect medium well temp. Parmesan truffle fries were pretty good. The house made steak sauce had a nice tangy taste to it but it went well with the steak. Not pictured was the Charm city lemonade.

    We chose this spot as it is open until 2 AM. Live music, good drinks and the kitchen closed at 10. We sat at a table and realized there would be no service. We transitioned to the bar to 8nteract with the bartender, be greeted by new people and enjoy the libations. Excellent venue in a college town for alumni/family visitors.

    Noah is a rock star. He gave the point an extra star just because of him. Noah worked his butt off al night and still was extremely helpful and attentive. He tried hard to make the right choice and I should have listened. The steak frites were not very good. The fries that it was on were soggy and had a weird taste. Noah told me to try the burger. My daughter did. So I had some of hers. It was better than he described. My friend had the crab cakes which he loved and my daughter sorority sister had the salmon sandwich. The apps were great. Live music. Stick with everything but the steak and you will love it here. Ask for Noah too. He's the man.

    CHICKEN & WAFFLES Southern Fried Chicken | Brown Sugar Waffles | Maple Syrup | Eggs Your Way

    I came here for brunch. I ordered the Chicken and Waffles which includes Southern Fried Chicken, Brown Sugar Waffles, Maple Syrup, and Eggs Your Way. I added breakfast potatoes and had my eggs to be scrambled with the egg whites only. The food was very good. The waffles are not the traditional large size, but it was more than enough for me. I appreciated the non-traditional size because I am lowering my carbs. I'd like to highlight the orange juice. I was disappointed that they put ice in the juice; that's super weird to me. Who wants to deal with watered down orange juice. But friend...I took a sip and realized that this was not Tropicana. Lol. This was fresh fresh fresh orange juice. The quality was so good, I didnt complain about the juice being on ice. It is to your benefit to order the orange juice. The overall experience was okay. I would have given three stars, but towards the end my friend began choking. Someone from the kitchen heard him and ran from the kitchen to our table. He came to his side and was ready to perform the Heimlich. My friend stopped choking before the Heimlich was needed, but my heart was overwhelmed by his genuine concern for a stranger. Because of the staff member's humanity, I gave my experience 4 stars.

    So my sister and I decided to check out the point for happy hour since we love the one downtown so much. Parking wasn't ideal but that's not the restaurants fault of course. We parked and walked about a block which wasn't terrible, it was just cold. Finding the restaurant was a little difficult but once we got close, the signage was great. We walked in and we're greeted fairly quickly. The bartender brought us menus and was very nice. Thankfully the place wasn't crowded because the bartender was our server as well. The happy hour menu had plenty of options which was great because we ordered them all to try. The specials for drinks were pretty good too. They had 2 for 1 drinks and their rail options weren't awful. I also liked that they had multiple options for all different types of alcohol. My drink wasn't that great. I ordered a Jameson with seltzer water and lime juice. I said a little seltzer and they brought me a cup full which was quite disgusting. I think If it was ginger ale, it would have been fine, but it was way too much seltzer. My sister was able to get hers down but said it was nothing to write home about. The food starting arriving and it was all correct. It was nice and hot and looked pretty tasty. None of it was nasty per se but it wasn't great. The service was awesome and the place itself was your typical bar set up, however I think I'll stick to the one downtown.

    Nice place for drink. We checked their menu online before coming in. The online menu seems pretty cool and promise such as the happy hours. But the happy hour drinks are not as in the menu. The bartender told us that it's regular drink and cocktails does not belong to the happy hours list. It's pretty quiet place. The bartender did not care much about us. I always had to call him over even though he was not busy. Food are okay, a little expensive.

    Clandestino has grown up, literally. What began as a small operation in Frederick has moved into a…read morelarger space, and the expansion suits them well. This is Puerto Rican pitorro, also known as ron cañita, made with care and intention rather than gimmickry. Many local liquor stores now carry the brand, and it is well worth picking up a bottle, but visiting the distillery is an experience in itself. The founder is a fellow Puerto Rican born retired military member, a background I share, and like me, he has put down roots in Maryland. That story is reflected clearly in the brand's own framing, "Puerto Rican born, Maryland made." The space feels grounded and unpretentious, and that sensibility carries through to the hospitality. We arrived late on a Saturday and were still welcomed warmly, never rushed. We were taken care of by the founder's daughter, who was exceptionally kind, attentive, and knowledgeable. She guided us through a flight that included the traditional pitorro, almond, pineapple, coffee, coconut chai, and several seasonal offerings. The flavors were thoughtful and well balanced; even the infused expressions retained a clear rum backbone rather than drifting into novelty. We enjoyed them enough to leave with several bottles. This is artisanal pitorro done right, rooted in Puerto Rican tradition and confidently made in Maryland. Buying it locally is convenient, but going to the distillery is where the people, the story, and the spirit fully come together.

That is a very nice seating option; however, there was a private event occurring so I couldnt be seated at such. They also have a front patio seating option as well. I opted to be seated at the bar for this visit as well. The bartender was not as pleasant as my entrance experience and previous visit; however he was attentive. We ordered drinks and then proceeded witj our food ordering once we received our drinks. We ordered Expresso Martini and Reposado Old Fashioned. The drinks are amazing and 5*. We ordered our food Oversized burger and Pan Seared scallops over brussel sprouts. Our food came out hot and within reasonable time. The burger is NOT an oversized burger. Regular sized and the descriptive name is deceiving. The burger option was not anything to speak on as it was not to satisfaction but quelled the hunger moment. It was over cooked. The pan seared scallops came out with a strong "fishy" smell. They however were tasty and spicy. This was a small plate as it was only 3 scallops in total. Other then the strong "fishy"smell, they were tasty. We then ordered a limoncello and was of course satisfied as it was another great tasting drink.

    What a fabulous find! This place is a must try. It is connected to a comedy club (Magooby's Joke…read moreHouse). There's plenty of parking. If you park on the upper side there are extremely steep steps. Park on the same side as the post office/entrance to the comedy club and there are no steps. There is an outside seating area as well. The inside has moody vibes and says speakeasy but out in the open. The inside isn't large, but comfortable with seating at the bar and several high tops. There are a gazillion bourbons and they even have flights. There's also a fully stocked bar for any drink you want. They have 2 beers on tap and tons of bottle/can options. However, I strongly encourage you to try the cocktails. These are elevated cocktails in the sense that the combination of liquors and mixers really make great pairings. The side car was great. We also tried the Naughty and Nice (perfect blend of spice and sweet), Port of Manhattan (the addition of the port takes this classic to the next level), and the Corpse Reviver #2 which was our absolute surprisingly favorite. The glass is washed with absinthe (see photo). Not only was it super cool to see, but the after taste after each sip was amazing with this addition to the drink. We are not gin drinkers but this was delicious! Venture off of your normal order and explore these incredible crafty and well thought out cocktails that you will thoroughly enjoy and appreciate for the art that they are. The menu was very good as well. The chorizo queso was delicious and the German Sausage Platter was tasty. The portions were good. People around us ordered burgers that were generously portioned with all the fixings. They have lots of specials like burger of the month, Wednesdays are burger night (half price) and the drinks are so reasonably priced! The service was immediate and constant throughout our entire visit. Very friendly and eager to make your experience enjoyable. Seriously, venture out to this place and have some terrific drinks and food. You will want to tell everyone about it! Such a great vibe and atmosphere, as well as a great value!!
