The Fries were very good. The deviled egg appetizers were OK. The double cheese burger was pitiful. Saying it was like McDonald's would be derogatory towards McDonald's. My guest had to send his back to be cooked. The menu's obvious intentions are to serve drinks and not food. The food selection was very limited. I won't be back. Very Sadly disappointing.

We spent a week in Frederick and this is now my hands down favorite place to eat. We went for breakfast and dinner, both were amazing. Everything is homemade, so much attention to detail in flavor combinations and presentation. Service was so attentive. I cannot say enough wonderful things. I will come back whenever I am in town again.

Went for breakfast thinking it was a place called Family Meal that we found online at this address. When we asked if there was a name change the waiter did not seem to know. The coffee was really weak and the French toast was okay. My husband liked his eggs and bacon. I think it was overpriced but it was nice to sit outside and the wait staff was very nice and attentive.

My sister and I had been looking forward to this lunch for months and it lived up to the hype. We sampled a ton of dishes - all were great! Our server Sam was a delight. Excellent food and service. Highly recommend!

Went in last Friday about 7pm to meet my family. Ordered an appetizer. It took about 20 minutes to get out. When arrived, looked like things were just thrown on the plate, pimento cheese. Ordered a beer the same time. After the appetizer arrived, had to remind the server about it. She came back a few minutes later and said they were out.vout if a menu beer at the start of the weekend? A big let down...

For breakfast, I'd say this is an average choice. The food was good but not amazing. Ordered the "eggs any way" and asked for poached eggs (which lets be real, you can get at literally any diner) and they couldn't do it. Kinda disappointing that a restaurant with a CIA trained chef can't poach an egg.

Me and my boyfriend went there last Sunday. We arrived around 7 and I was a little worried because it was almost closing time. But the staff were very friendly and the food was great. We ordered onion rings, spicy shrimp, burgers, fried potatoes and beet salad. All was so delicious. I'll definitely come again!

My wife and I met my daughter and her boyfriend here for lunch. We sat out on the heated patio which was nice for a January day. The menu had plenty of variety to it and the food was delicious. The waiter was slow getting our drinks and other requests to us, but we were in no hurry so it didn't bother us much.

Oops! Not Born and Raised, but Showroom! Annoying Yelp won't let me edit. Showroom gets 5 stars; Yelp, not so much. :-)

We went for brunch and had a great experience. Our temperatures were taken upon arrival and we were seated on the covered patio spaced out from the other tables. Reservations can be made on their website. For an appetizer, we ordered the chicken wings; they had a tasty sauce that was a little tangier than buffalo sauce and the ranch dipping sauce was really creamy. For the main dish, we ordered the Nashville Chicken sandwich and fried potatoes tossed in duck fat. It was the perfect combo. The sandwich was crunchy and seasoned very well. The fried potatoes were really good as well and the portion was great to share. They had an array of specialty cocktails to choose from. The Potomac Passion was very refreshing! If I'm ever in the Frederick area again I'll definitely return.

During the pandemic, Family Meal closing the doors for good hurt my heart. Showroom is the identical twin, renamed. Wasn't too surprised when I checked the menu and many of my favorites were alive and well. We went for a quick bite and each had the Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich- same great fried chicken they're known for. Paired with the side of wilted spinach and a glass of red wine. Servers were great and social distancing was present and well achieved! Voltaggio does it again, another great success!

And DANG those home fries were still rocking and that sausage gravy was to die for... We will be back.

Delicious food and drinks. Everything from onion rings, kale salad, pork schnitzel and chicken was spot on. Great beer list. The blood orange meringue was yummy Our first dine in since covid and felt so safe! They took all the precautions. Highly recommend!

It's unpretentious and cozy. They converted a former car dealership into a hip restaurant with a long counter, indoor and outdoor dining tables, and since it is COVID, a tent. The place is cool with lots of natural light, high ceilings, and an open kitchen. I had the Spiced Shrimp and Pot Pie Fritters. Both were fantastic. Showroom is definitely my favorite place to eat in Frederick.
