I have eaten here several times in the past two years. Every plate, every dish has been delicious and very well prepared. This is a kitchen that knows how to create a variety of dishes that are not simple or trivial. The sauces are very well done, the noodles are always done nicely, heck -- they now how to cook, and they execute really well on every dish. I have had seafood, beef, and all kinds of dishes here that have always come out and satisfied !!! This is a rural gem worthwhile getting to know. And the cocktails are professional. The wines list is pretty darn good. Specials are great. The 5 star rating is for location (accessible to me), quality of find and drink, and the absolutely decent price (punches above its weight). The service is what you are happy with in a 3 star restaurant, so it's a win budget wise ;-) read more

Brunch at Wilcom's Inn was a fun and impressive experience. For $45 per person, it's an all-you-can-eat brunch served tapas style, which I personally love because it lets you sample many different dishes without committing to just one big plate. The menu offers a nice variety of cuisines, so there's something for everyone. Some of my favorites were the shrimp tacos, spinach pesto linguine, and shrimp scampi. Everything was flavorful and nicely prepared. I was honestly so busy enjoying the food that I completely forgot to take pictures--haha. Service was great as well. The staff were friendly and welcoming, and the dishes kept coming out quickly so there was never much of a wait between plates. If you're looking for a fun brunch where you can try a variety of dishes in smaller portions, Wilcom's Inn is definitely worth checking out. Ample free parking is available. read more

First time dining at Wilcom's on a packed New Year's Eve evening and we loved the food, wine and service. What a great value as well and all courses were excellent. We met the new owner and her daughter, both charming and welcoming. We will definitely come back soon. read more

My family had a private event here recently. Carla and family were very accommodating in the planning so that everything went smoothly. The food and service were excellent and the price was reasonable. I have also had the weekend brunch which is a nice way to sample lots of different dishes and I look forward to going there for dinner soon. read more

This is a smallish restaurant so reservations are recommended. The staff was very friendly. I heard they just changed ownership so there have been some challenges there. The menu is intriguing and deliciously curated. The dining area is cozy but fancy at the same time. The food is really good and you can tell they use quality ingredients. Our table has the burrata caprese salad, wedge salad, stuffed shrimp, shrimp scampi, shrimp and grits, stuffed flounder and spinach pesto linguine. We all enjoyed our dishes and I was impressed. I can see why it is loved by the locals. read more

My wife and I came here for New Year's Eve and had such a wonderful time we came back for Valentine's Day AND came back the next day for brunch! Wilcom's Inn is a unique spot; plopped in the middle of Nowheresville where Rte. 80 hits Rte. 75 and is a cozy little building with a modest sized white table cloth dining room and an even "modester" bar area (which you walk through to get to the dining room!), giving a vibe as a haven to those close enough to regular the joint. Alas, new ownership is a delightful family affair with at least three in the family hosting or serving every shift, it seems. The result is very attentive and accountable service at every turn. I'm not one to go into the details of food items, but safe to say that with specialty menus for each meal we enjoyed, my wife and I sampled a whole lot of different flavors and were pleased with all of it, including dessert! In a nutshell, you'll have to try pretty hard to NOT have a good experience at Wilcom's with its welcoming feel, outstanding service and fairly-priced delicious choices. My wife and I look forward to making the short trek from downtown Frederick a more regular occurrence. read more

I've been wanting to try this place for years and last night we finally got the chance. We went for their Christmas Eve dinner and it was fantastic! Five courses for $55. We don't drink so didn't do the wine pairing but they had four mocktail options. The service was attentive but not intrusive. Even though the space was small, it wasn't overly loud and we could have a normal conversation. The food was outstanding! Really interesting flavor profiles, and we enjoyed every bite. Looking forward to going back soon! read more

Had a wonderful bottle of wine with dinner so b ought 2 bottles to go. When we got home and opened the bottles both had turned. A bottle was close to $70. I called to ask for a credit and they told me I couldn't get a credit or return because they were opened. I tried to explain that the only way I would know they were bad was to open them. The logic failed. We went back and forth. They wouldn't offer any credit even a restaurant credit. Needless to say that was our last visit. Too many nice restaurants around. They need to stand behind what they sell! read more

Had an impressive Reuben sandwich with fries. Comfy setting with lots of options. I am told that dinner is fantastic, as well.

Should have known something would be bad when you walk in and another table offers you the menus. Sat down in the bar waited close to 25 minutes and no one ever came over. Watched other tables being waited on. Watched 4 girls by a register in the corner just standing around. This place was very unorganized with little management directing whatever was happening. After seeing another couple get someone to help them after we had been there well before we walked out. Will not return r recommend. Zero stars. read more

This quaint restaurant is located at the old 75 and 80 drag strip. The restaurant has been reimagined from the no frills roadhouse it used to be for several decades. With limited seating, reservations are highly recommended. The menu has a range of options but a nice focus on Peruvian. The wine, beer, and cocktail selection offer plenty of options. The service was attentive but not pushy. We started with the Boom-Boom shrimp. The order comes with 12 small shrimp with a light breading that fell off easily. The pink Peruvian sauce lacked the bold flavors I expected. The seafood stir fry was surprisingly tasty and a generous serving. Shrimp, calamari, scallops with vegetables, in a Peruvian red sauce with jasmine rice. The basque cheesecake was light with fresh berries and a drizzle of strawberry sauce, a perfect ending. read more

OMG! You hit it out of the park again! The ribeye melted in my mouth. My mom and husband loved the cream of clam soup. The shrimp appetizer was gone thanks to my mom (I'm allergic) but that pink sauce was amazing on the onion rings. The shrimp tacos for hubby disappeared before I even had a chance to look at them. read more

Had another lovely dinner with friends. The restaurant is lovely without being pretentious. I had the twin filets (took half home), husband had the shrimp scampi, friends had salmon and a steak stir fry. Pumpkin cheesecake and bread pudding desserts. Everyone enjoyed their meal, ate it all or took it home, and the service was attentive but gave us the space for a leisurely dinner visit. read more

We do not like Wilcom's Inn... the food is not in our wheelhouse. The service was very good but the tables are too close together. This was our second try but it's trying to be an International restaurant and for us not excelling at any read more

We have been going there for years, this last visit will be our last. The quality and customer service has gone downhill while prices rise. We waited over 90 minutes for our food with not a single acknowledgment of the delay until we received the bill then there was an apology for the delay. We were told they upgraded their meat to prime but it was the worst meal we have ever had there. So incredibly disappointing for a place we frequented often. This would have never happened under the previous owners, maybe a delay but an honest reason why and an attempt to make it right but that no longer exists. read more

So, the location used to be a biker bar many years ago. The new owners renovated it and it is now a great restaurant. 1. They have Allagash Beer on tap (Allagash White, to be exact) my personal favorite Belgium White in the US (made in Maine) 2. we had scallops and grits as an appetizer. Wow. 3. We each had different entrees. I went with the filet, covered in blue cheese butter with mashed potatoes. My wife had the chicken pasta. 4. we both had a salad I had a wedge and she had the garden greens. Overall the food was beyond amazing. Parking was a pain, but the food was so good I wouldn't take a star for horrible parking. Their take on the wedge salad was amazing. The steak was perfectly prepared to medium rare. Desert, sadly was too good to talk about. read more

This unassuming location houses an intimate restaurant and bar. The food is top notch with excellent flavors. For the first time in many years, I had cream of crab soup which was gluten free -- that's not something regularly available at restaurants. The only thing I would "critique" is that it could have had more crabmeat but the overall flavor was delicious. The shrimp tacos had a combination of flavors that I couldn't get enough of! My husband had the Peruvian shrimp and raved about it too. The service is great and all the staff were extremely friendly. We will definitely return. read more

Food and service are excellent. This is our favorite go to restaurant. Don't let the location or outside fool you. Well worth the visit.

Located on a busy road near a small village called Monrovia, they went above and beyond to see the beautiful landscape. Service was provided by the local community.. read more

I've been here twice--and both times, the food was great! The all-you-can-eat brunch (that I tried before Covid) was fantastic. I haven't had it recently, so I'd like to try it again. I recently went to lunch with some ladies. Once again, the food was great. The place is unassuming. (I remembered it from its former days as a biker bar.) The only thing that could be improved in the dining room was that there was a speaker playing music right above our table. Once we requested the music to be turned down by the waiter--the problem was solved. I would call this a hidden gem in Monrovia! read more

Excellent food and great staff. We had the buffet on Saturday and the choices were numerous.

First time here, tried the brunch. It's tapas style, all you can eat for $40 (with tax). I had: Empanadas * Eggs (sunny side) * Deviled eggs * Bacon * Coconut shrimp Boom boom shrimp Crab cake * Waffles with chicken Waffles with berries Tres leches The ones with stars were the only things I liked. When you're ordering, they are small servings (except the bacon), so get a few. Empanadas are filled with beef, olives and raisins. Crab cakes are small balls fried. The waffles on both dishes were over cooked, so the waffle was too dry/crunchy and scrapped the roof of my mouth. The chicken is just very small nuggets that were overcooked and fried. Coconut shrimp was okay, came two shrimps to an order. The boom boom shrimp I've never had, but was deep fried and had a sauce on it. It didn't look good (again, overfried). For the price, it could at least come with coffee. The food wasn't that great. Also, didn't like seeing all the greasy fingerprints on the sides of the plates. It was nice to try, but wouldn't return. read more

This one didn't make the cut for me. I order the green beans, & shrimp scampi. For starters, this was a takeout order. The green beans come topped with red onions and what looked like garlic. I think the onions really took over the flavor of the juices. The string beans were very potent with a sour taste every time I went back for more. The shrimp scampi is a butter and garlic based pasta, but every bite was a tad bitter. I've had these same dishes with similar ingredients applied but unfortunately, this one didn't make the mark for me. read more

Sunday brunch done right in the middle of a cute country road! This quaint little place offers a tasting menu of several options. We tried a lot of seafood dishes today and were not disappointed. The boom boom shrimp and maple sriracha shrimp were chef's kiss. The French toast was too oily, the waffle was excellent, yuca fries were crispy, the guac/salsa with chips can be skipped and the fish taco was fresh. Their service was very friendly and homely. Go give them a try, you will love it! read more

Wilcoms is one of the only "holy grail" restaurants still around in this area. The servers are wonderful, the food is great and always fresh high quality control here. We love the bartender and appreciate the local people and banter. This restaurant was an old biker bar that turned into semi- fine dining. They did a great job remodeling it and putting together a wonderful menu. My fav food is the wedge salad with salmon. And the yuca fries! Oh my! 10 out of 10! read more

Jessica and David are awesome! Always great service! Never disappointed! Brunch is amazing!

Good food,only one option Malbec,service is awful.not welcoming at all,food came late or never came,servers dont know about wine recommendations very unprofessional,manager make customers feel like they are doing people a favor for give a table,even when calling for a reservation rude when answer the phone. use to be a really good place with great servers but not anymore. read more

I drove by this spot several times and finally decided to go because I heard great things about their food! My first thought was why didn't I go sooner! Not only was the service great, the food is great! It's all you can eat Sunday brunch which is great because the selection is amazing and you get to taste everything! I left sooo full and satisfied I took a nap as soon as I got home. The waiters were also so friendly and helpful even helped me bring some stuff to my car! I will definitely be returning. read more

The Peruvian fish and Yucca fries were outstanding. The cowboy ribeye was ok. The cut did not seem to live up to the price (over $30). You were afforded a choice of three sauces for your steak and the mushroom sauce I expected to be on the steak when it arrived and not brought later in a little bowl. The Peruvian spicy fried rice tasted like a chicken fried rice you would find at a Chinese restaurant. We had bruschetta as appetizers and they were very good. The service was absolutely the worst I have ever had from a waiter. Not being very familiar with Peruvian food, I asked what spices make up Peruvian food and he said just the spices. I guess any food that has spices can be identified as Peruvian per the waiter. Unfortunately we were not quite ready to order at that point and asked for more time and about 30 minutes later after pleading with the busboy a couple of times that we were ready to order, our waiter decided to take our order. Would I come back for the food - definitely. However, why would I come back here to be treated rudely by a waiter. There are other restaurants with good food that treat me far better. This easily could have been 4 stars if we had a decent waiter. read more

RUN don't walk, directly to Wilcom's Inn and get yourself a piece of the Brunch action!! What an incredibly amazing selection and all served small plate style so you can actually taste it all! I just wish i would have snagged more pics, but damn i was just too mesmerized by the incredible presentation and the flavor bombs just blew me away! For $9.95 add the bottomless mimosas or Bloody Mary's or even the sangria. Although not truly bottomless, it's an additional $2 for each one after the $9.95, but totally worth it because these aren't tiny versions. If you are looking for Brunch, this IS the place! read more

the food was fantastic! great service. great atmosphere. Ive eaten here periodically and it's always been excellent! Carlos was our server. great job. unfortunately the table next to us ran up a 400 dollar dinner, took doggy bags, laughed and chatted happily, and left no tip!!! they complained that a side vegetable on an entree, asparagus, had run out. made me sick. disgusting people exist everywhere. read more

Four of us had dinner here a few nights ago. It was delicious. We had pasta and shrimp, a filet, a ribeye, and a hamburger. The steaks were excellent! The hamburger and the pasta were good. The side dishes were very good as well. Their wine choices were good and the cost of their liquor was very reasonable. The service was good, but we had to wait too long between courses. The ambiance is nice also. It is a small place so don't expect a lot of table privacy. Overall a very good Restuarant! We will be back! read more

Such a sweet spot in town. They serve up great Peruvian cuisine. It's a bit of a hole in the wall. But yummy eats. We ordered ceviche, but was surprised not to receive any chips to eat it with. read more

I drive by this place when ever I am heading back home from work. The outside gave me an uneasy feeling based in its location. However, I was proven wrong today when I was invited out to brunch by my wonderful colleagues. The inside is small but lively. The service is superb! Our waiter David kept our food and drinks coming back to back and he kept the table laughing. There was four of us at the table, I ordered the mussels, purevian rice and seafood saute, chips with guac, old bay steamed shrimp, mac and cheese and ended it off with some waffles with sweetened fruits. Every dish I order was cooked well! I honestly wanted to continued to order, but I had a feeling my table wouldn't have gotten restless. The inn has two entrances one for the bar and one for the dinning room. When I walked in I was greeted automatically, no searching for a hostess, one was already there. I found my table and thanked her. It was crowded but I didn't feel it, but it was loud. Pros: the food and the service Cons: just the noise level but that is not the restaurants problem just us the customers. read more

Nice staff. Ok food. Good drinks. Kinda random but I came here for my friends bday brunch LOL. This is an Inn and we ate at the attached restaurant. There is also a bar! -- Steak and Eggs : Do not recommend. The steak is very tough. However it was cooked to the right temperature at least! I got scrambled eggs which were good! -- Greek Omelet: very good actually!! Would recommend if Greek food is your thing. -- Mimosa: V good, for cheap, and you get a good amount of drink! Overall food is okay but it's also in the middle of nowhere LOL. Also I only tried the restaurant and not the hospitality! But the servers were still very nice! read more
