“We had a birthday party of 30 here and they were amazing! Food & service ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“We used to frequent this restaurant often when we lived in Frederick. We returned for my 70th birthday dinner. As usual, Rich did an outstanding job, not only with our meals but also with meals designed for our vegan/vegetarian children. Trish, our server , was also excellent. Just sorry that we didn’t get to see Kelly. You must go to this restaurant!! Pam Keipper“

“Tuscarora Mill (Tuskies) Restaurant went above and beyond to make our son's High School Graduation lunch special (he is first-generation), even though i only booked a reservation the day before. They phoned me to check his name and printed out special menus as a keepsake and gave him a gift at the end. They were attentive and understanding that by the time he came to eat the stress and excitement of the day suddenly hit him and he was exhausted affecting his appetite. They happily got him a box to take it home without any judgement. The food was tasty and well cooked and staff helpful and kind (they even gave us a choice of table). The main dishes are on the pricier side, so it is why we chose it to mark his occasion. However, we will be back for drinks and appetisers in future.“

“Long post ahead, warning! I walked in around 9 pm and the hostess didn't bat an eye at my dining alone, and didn't say anything about it, which I appreciate. I was seated right away with no problems and immediately got a chance to look over the menu. I will admit, it took a little bit longer than expected for my waiter to come over, but as a lone diner I sort of expected that. I looked like I was waiting for someone, I'm sure. The look and feel of the place was very upscale, but they didn't have any problems with me walking in wearing a nerdy t-shirt. I was seated in this cute little booth for 2 with curtains on the side so, if I wanted a more private dinner, I could have it. It was a cute touch! The restaurant also offered patio dining and since it's by the creek, that would have been a downright charming experience were it not the usual Maryland summer. Despite having a bar, the restaurant was respectably quiet and low-key, making it an easy dining experience. I wasn't in the mood for something wild, and this place really hit the nail on the head. My first waiter Kevin, however, was the picture of polite helpfulness. He answered all of my questions, made some wonderful suggestions, and was incredibly pleasant to talk to. I was delighted to find out that this place takes part in DC restaurant week, so I was able to take part in that promotion. Under a suggestion from Kevin, I ordered a glass of their moscato (I wanted something light and sweet), and the wine was so good I brought home a whole bottle. Not really on them, but it does reflect their excellent selection. Dinner itself was delicious. The red pepper soup was refreshing and flavorful, without being too filling. The steak I ordered was cooked to perfection and was flavored in the perfect way to make the actual flavor of the meat shine. The potatoes were both light and fluffy, but also had the little chunks of potato that I prefer in my mashed. The best part was desert. About halfway through my appetizer, Kevin introduced my other waiter, Maddy, who took over after he went home. She was as much of a delight as he was, and made possibly the best recommendation of the night. Desert was this blackberry tart that I did not have room for but could not put down. Gooey and crumbly all at once, with a warm center that was almost caramel-y even though it was fruit based. Topped with a light cream to balance it all out, it was absolutely delicious. I will be thinking of that tart all day tomorrow. The prices on the menu were a little high, but I wouldn't go so far to say they were unreasonable. If I had wanted a cheaper option, I could have gone to any chain restaurant ever. In the grand scheme of downtown Frederick, with it's many small businesses and one of a kind dining experiences, I think this was reasonable. For reference, a lot of meals were between $20 and $30, but a good steak is almost always $30+. Despite the price, I had an exceptional dining experience, and would 100% recommend this place to anyone looking for upscale dining, without the upscale requirements.“

“had dinner last night for the first time. oh my why did we wit so long to visit. food was outstanding we will be back for sure. food and service were awesome!!“

“Enjoyed the Food here Staff was Attentive and Friendly had a wonderful Dining experience the Specials are Awesome“

“Burgers are pretty hefty/big for the price. Tried the Rodeo Blast. Would recommend.

Also want to shout out Claudia A, and the rest of the staff who were very hygienic! I saw a lot of gloves changes. So they weren't handling the food after touching different surfaces (register, beverage case etc).“

“Never disappoints! Great food, relaxing ambiance, and friendly bartenders.“

“we all loved our meals!! I had the Chinatown salad it was amazing!! 😋delicious“

“It's the hotels casual fare. If your expectations are fine dining you'll be disappointed, but as far as a calm and relaxing bar with Virginia theming then you'll have a good time.

Food is generic but consistent (bar foods with occasionally new fare). Staff is attentive since it's usually calm.

Nice spot to swing by and have lunch. We've been coming for 7 years“

“The food is delicious, and everything is fresh. It is the perfect place to stop after visiting the C & O Trail, or any other excuse you can find. I highly recommend Big Belly’s.“

“Fun clean good food kid friendly“

“Great cocktails, food and friendly bartenders.“

“Walked in and seated at the bar. I look up and see all of this allocated bourbon. I see they have chicken fried steak (my favorite). I of course order that and it surpassed all my expectations. The biscuit was nice and fluffy, the chicken fried steak was made to perfection, throw on top of that the sausage gravy and I was in literal heaven. The service is some of the best I have ever had. If you have not tried Buford’s biscuits you need to!!! I can almost guarantee everything on the menu is amazing!!“

“Love Tarbender’s! Such a unique spot. Live music on Fri/ Sat, brunch on Sunday. What’s not to love!“

“We were visiting from out of state decided to drop in for lunch, Twisted Cat DID NOT DISAPPOINT!!! Great atmosphere and the burgers were AMAZING! It has become our favorite place to eat and we can’t wait to go back!!!!“

“This is a casual, sports bar type restaurant so we weren't expecting fine dining. However, we were pleasantly surprised with the good quality of the food. I rated the food 4 stars in comparison with other casual restaurants. From chicken wings, to nachos, to salads, everyone was pleased with a meal that was better than we expected. The only mis-step food-wise was somewhat rubbery chicken on the sheet pan nachos. I ended up picking those off. The service staff was busy but good. A manager was walking around making sure everyone was satisfied and that their orders were correct. I appreciated this as he seemed genuinely interested in making sure customers were happy. Shout-out to the bartender on 10/26—making some flavorful, balanced cocktails that didn't make me feel like I wasted my money. Fun atmosphere—I would eat here again!“

“Carlos, our waiter is awesome!!!!“

“First timers, was excellent food & service. Will definately return on our next visit to Leesburg.“

“I come for the wings with honey bourbon bbq sauce. Fun sports bar atmosphere with plenty of TV’s.“

“I had an event for St Patrick’s Day catered by Spanky’s Shenanigans. If 5 star is the top, this was 10 star. The food was absolutely delicious and more than plentiful. People raved about the Corner Beef and Cabbage and Fish and Chips. The food arrived in a timely fashion and was hot. Kolt the manager could not have been pleasanter or easier to work with. I look forward to future catered events with this restaurant. Cathleen“

“My favorite restaurant in Leesburg!“

“We’re staying at the Bar Harbor KOA right down the road from the restaurant. We tried it out for lunch today, and everything was delicious! We had the cheese curds as an appetizer and the blackened haddock sandwiches for our main courses. We loved everything! Very fresh food and great service as well!“

“The best fried chicken in Frederick County, MD!! Also lots of other great food!!“

“Best bacon cheeseburger I’ve ever had! Highly recommended!!“

“Best deep fried mushroom and chicken wings in downtown Leesburg.“

“Great Friday open mic, cool spot with friendly staff! Chicken tenders are hand-cut and breaded, too!“

“I’m torn. This has been a staple of ours for quite a while. Food is still excellent. Service has taken a hit.“

“Our waiter John was awesome! We stopped in at 1am, that young man was jumping through hoops to make everyone’s experience great! The food was too notch! We will definitely stop here again!“

“My wife and I had a fantastic experience at Piedmont's! The soup of the day (a cream of potato with bacon and cheese) and the Steak Frites were both highlights, and having some chocolate Gelato at the end of the meal really filled us up. We wished we could have eaten more of the plentiful portions, but our stomachs were full. While it can be on the pricier side, there are some less expensive menu options available.“

“Great food, great service, & a great selection of bourbon“

“Today service was not the best i have had in padt visits. No refills of water and coffee offered. I had to call on someone other than my server. No follow up check to see if I needed anything else. Disappointing.“
