The food is amazing, and don't let the $30-$50 on Google steer you away. Most of the dishes are under 30 except the ones that are normally pricier.

Super delicious food. Friendly staff and great service. It is a bit pricey but definitely worth the price. The location seems like it's a hole in the wall place but the inside looks very nice. Well decorated setup inside.

Rosa was our server. She was very nice and attentive. The menu has many different and interesting options for the Sunday brunch. The food came quickly. The room we were in was close together with other tables, I don't particularly mind that, but you can hear everyone talking. The food was very good. Collectively we had the salmon, pork, scallops and egg salad sandwich. The French fries were great. The scallops were excellent as was everything else. All plates were empty. My only suggestion is have more vegetarian options. The quiche had bacon, the omelet had bacon, all salads have meat. We will definitely go back.

I had heard amazing reviews and maybe the chef just had an off night but the food wasn't good and I wasn't impressed with my Smokey margarita either. The caesar salad essentially had no dressing on it. When they brought out extra, it had no flavor (which I didn't know was possible with caesar dressing). The French onion soup was really good but non traditional with a more creamy broth (no complaints there). My chicken dish with warm potato salad and braised greens was disappointing to say the least. That wasn't pan gravy with the chicken - it was clearly thickened too much with cornstarch. The warm potato salad was with almost like a bang bang shrimp sauce (more Asian inspired and spicy) and was the weirdest flavor pairing with the chicken and greens. They just didn't go together and the gravy getting mixed in with that bang bang sauce was just odd. The greens were slimey and had no flavor whatsoever... not even salt. Many of the elements of our meals lacked seasoning, particularly salt. We're a family that frequents chains and isn't overly picky with food but the meal was from start to finish pretty disappointing. I don't normally leave negative reviews but I think their chef just honestly isn't up to par.

Out with friends we all enjoyed our meals and the selection was wide ranging and very good. I was disappointed in one thing and that was my Manhattan (cocktail) with Woodford reserve. A price for the Manhattan, a $4 up charge and a separate $1.50 for the Luxardo cherry..that was very disappointing.

Great meal, had the seared ahi tuna with wasabi whipped potatoes and sugar snap peas. Everything was delicious. Like the vibe in the bar area especially. Will return soon.

Spent a delightful afternoon enjoying lunch and chatting with Ashley. Her recommendations were spot on!
We adore Monocacy Crossing! Each time we go it is always pleasant! The staff is wonderful and the food is just so so good! I wish they served other vegetables, but green beans are good with me!

This is easily the most mid restaurant food I've had in awhile. It was basically home-cooked but at very expensive restaurant prices. We had 2 entrees and an appetizer and it cost $80. Wife got the herb chicken, which had very little flavor and was pretty dry in places. It came with “warm potato salad” which appeared to be fried potatoes in some kind of mayonnaise based sauce. Interesting, but definitely wasn't expected. I got bacon-wrapped beef medallions that came with mashed potatoes that were mashed very much and everything had pretty mild flavor. None of the food was bad, but it was all fairly basic and not what the quality expected for ~$25 entrees. Thatcher and Rye was about the same price for stuff and the flavor of their food was much impressive and in line with prices like these. In addition, the location and building don't give warm, fuzzy feelings. The parking lot entrance has serious potholes and the building is old and sagging everywhere. The overall feel of the experience was disappointing at this price point.

Table ready when we arrived having made reservations on line very easy Good menu selection . Food tasty-could have been hotter. Maybe need more servers. Those there working very hard. Value extremely good. Will be returning!!
