“Tried Branded Chophouse this evening and, WOW! The measure of a business is not best taken when everything runs smoothly but rather in how they handle a “hiccup “. We made a reservation online through a 3rd party site. When we arrived there was some confusion as it was 6 on a Saturday night and they couldn’t locate our reservation. The general manager, Emily, went above and beyond seating our party at the bar to wait for our table. Offering recommendations for appetizers, wine etc. We were seated. Food, drinks, service…all outstanding! We will be back!“

“Went there for a birthday party. It was fabulous. Huge,delicious plates of food. Our server was personable and on point. Justin, the bartender, made great drinks and Heather the General Manager made sure everything ran smoothly. I will definitely be back!“

“OUTSTANDING on all counts. This is now our favorite seafood place. Chics has been around forever. I've previously purchased raw product to being home and prepare but had not eaten in the restaurant until just recently. What a mistake to wait!! 4 adults, 1 child. Server was terrific. We had crab dip with Naan bread for appetizer and the crab pretzel. Holy cow the pretzel was huge!! 2 ordered NY strip with crabcakes. The steak (mine was medium well) was terrific. Very tender and juicy. The crabcakes are phenomenal! Huge lumps of crab. Not a lot of filter. Seasoned and fried perfectly!. Stuffed founder was another entrée. Tender flaky buttery fish with a delicious filling of crab. The big order at the table went to my 89 yr old momma who got a captains plate!! It was ginormous! And she loved every single bite. Oh and let me mention the fried scallops... divine!! Take a fat wallet bc your going to want to try everything!!“

“What crab cake? It is more like a generous portion of seasoned lump crab, no breading to be found, and it is incredible. (We skipped the sandwich fixins too since we were ordering so much food) The soup! Most spots either do a creamy style or a tomato style - they do both so well, and they sell a half and half mix which I highly recommend. It was so decadent and warming after a chilly hike on part of the AT nearby. The crab dip was amazing, and the texture of the chips they serve it with is out of this world. The hush puppies are a must too imo. Cannot wait to return to this little gem. Makenzie gave us recommendations and took our order at the register, brought our food and anything else we needed, bussed the tables, swept the floors! Its rare to see someone run the front of the house on their own like that, it was cool to sit and eat in Makenzie’s hospitality :) 10/10“

“I can't say THANKS enough! My family moved from Maryland in 2004 to Michigan (no fresh seafood other than whitefish). My family was in Hagerstown for a wedding. My daughter and I decided it was the perfect time to have crabs. I went to Potomac Seafood Market because of their reviews! I am so glad I did. I got 2 dozen of males #1 (hot from the pot) and 1 dozen of females for my daughter to try (cold). She also wanted some clams. We sat out on the porch of our brother-in-laws house and chowed down. It was so good! It was the first time in a long time having fresh cooked crabs. I have done mail order in the past.I want to thank everyone at Potomac Seafood Market for a wonderful meal and excellent service! It was incredible. When I am in Hagerstown, I will be stopping by! I promise! (I may have my brother-in-law pick me up some when he comes in the summer from you!)“

“Updated experience 3/14/24- eat at the bar if going for lunch. the main dining server makes the experience odd and uncomfortable. she forgets to offer bread, salt and pepper and you will not get a drink refill. She may be experiencing burnout.OVERALLL... I STAND BY MY 2023 REVIEW! ITS....A solid experience!“

“This is one of the best hole in the wall spots to be out here. And I hope this place thrives. Best fucking catfish I ever had other then my mama's deep fried catfish . The sides were so complimenting to the main part of the dish. Seasoned to perfection. . Way better then any place in Hagerstown tbh I've ate everywhere so I know. And the guy had great service and gave me extra food the more he saw me come back. Loyalty baby“

“Delicious and great prices!!! Don't be fooled by the small appearance from the outside. Come inside to find a spacious, nicely decorated restaurant with lots of seating. Definitely not cramped. The menu is amazing. Lots to choose from for the whole family. The food tasted delicious and fresh. The food came out in decent amount of time and the service was great. The waitress was great at explaining the menu options. Great place for a date, family night out or a meet up with friends. Highly recommend this place for the food and ambiance.“

“We moved away from the area back to Frederick but still continue to get our crabs here. They can’t be BEAT for price and quality. Got some nice, sweet, heavy Mother’s Day females here. The seasoning is perfect, the prices are more than fair and the service is friendly and helpful. The crabs are steamed just right, you can easily get meat even out of the tiny legs. They are never overdone! These guys know how to run a great crab truck operation and get Kudos all the way around! Thank you guys, we’ll definitely be back for more this summer! ?“

“This restaurant is Amazing! If you haven't been then you should definitely get the experience of the very classy but vibrant atmosphere! ..oh when you do go tho MAKE SURE YOU ASK FOR BRIANNA OR ERIN THEY ARE AWSOME AND VERY MUCH GREAT SERVERS AND WILL ALWAYS MAKE SURE YOUR NEEDS ARE MET! ....AND I WANT TO PREFER THE LAME CHOPS ?!!!!!!!!!!!! .. THE BEST FOOD AND EXPERIENCE I'VE HAD IN A LONG TIME! ILL BE BACK EVERY WEEKEND!“

“Myself, and my housemate have been attending for over a year, 1-3 times a week (at the minimum). Each and every time, they greet us, remember our consistent orders, and the atmosphere they create is amazing. From the cleanliness to the staff always checking in and up on us and everyone around us, this is a 5 star establishment. No one I know, nor myself, have ever had a complaint about the food or quality of dish cleanliness, rude staff, etc.I could not recommend this restaurant any more highly to anyone who wants good cuisine or a consistent experience. IF by chance, you ever had an issue, you can expect it to be resolved immediately and with a smile on the employees faces.5 stars all around.“

“The Lobster Tail was tenders and very Juicy. Taste was exceptional, even the biscuits were great. Seems like they just came out of the oven. The only suggestion I have is that the pilaf rice was undercooked, just a little more time needed to make it perfect. Everything else was awesome!“

“I am so mad that this is my first time trying this place BUT I am so happy that I did! The food is fresh, flavor packed and absolutely delicious! Everything I ordered was AMAZING! The owner is super nice and attentive, very caring spirit and I love it! I will definitely be back to try more of the menu.“
