37 Best American Restaurants near Woodsboro

“Stopped in f a late breakfast and arrived about 1:15. We knew they closed at 2:00 so did not plan on staying too long. Omelette was very good, potatoes very good and waffle and eggs also very good (amazing how many places can screw up a waffle and eggs). Even though we got there late wait staff was very friendly and made sure everything was good with us. Looking forward to our next visit. If we lived in the area would certainly be a regular!! Nothing fancy, just good food and friendly staff.“

“Food was great. Atmosphere was cozy. We were a party of 8. Our waiter Barry was very attentive. He added greatly to the whole experience with his jokes and demeanor.“

“Amazing food and drinks! Great service especially from our server Frankie! Fabulous in every way“

“The crab cakes lacked seasoning. Same for the cream of crab soup. The French onion soup was too salty, while not unusual, it wasn't expected for this level of restaurant. Our wait staff was excellent. And the atmosphere is also excellent. It was our first time for dinner. We'd been numerous times for lunch and will limit ourselves to lunch in the future.“

“THE SOUP IS SO GOOD OMG. I am a big soup lover, and I am chronically disappointed in soups all across different restaurants because they're never as rich, full flavored, or filling as you want them to be, unless it's French onion soup (and at that point it's just bread and cheese, c'mon).
We went for lunch and I had their Chicken Poblano soup, ready to like it alright, and I cleaned my bowl. The soup was so perfectly seasoned, hearty, and exactly what you want out of a bowl of soup. My companion had the chicken salad sandwich, ALSO AMAZING.
They are a typical small business so it's a small operation in a small space, charmingly decorated and very clean and classic.

Their menu is small, and that's because everything they make is made to perfection. If you want the soup that you'll be trying to recreate for years to come (or that you'll pick up once a week because if you're like me you can't recreate a recipe to save your life), this is the place to go.“

“Great service, quality food and European atmosphere! We love it here!“

“Our expectations for a culinary arts program were medium to high; however, given that it was a learning experience for the kitchen and front-of-house staff, there would probably be some room for improvement. The menu offered a variety of entree choices, including pork chop, pasta primavera, chicken, and salmon. We were instructed by the hostess that each person at our table should order a different entree to make it easier for the kitchen staff. The server provided little explanation about the menu choices and preparation. When the entrees were delivered, however, confusion ensued when the servers presented the dishes to each diner incorrectly. Wine was ordered, and the pours were not consistent in each glass, probably about 4 oz. or less each. The entrees were expertly prepared with flavorful sauces and seasonings; however, the table received little attention during the meal. We all agreed that the food quality and tastiness of the food were excellent, but the dining experience would have been outstanding if the service had been at a higher level.“

“Mike L was our server and we had an absolute 10/10 experience. Mike was so attentive to our table, and was so personable. Our food was fantastic as well, from apps to entrees, to desert. I cannot wait to go back, and Mike needs a raise!!“

“Our first time coming here and won’t be our last! They have the best burgers and shakes!“

“The service and food were very good and the price point was definitely worth it. I enjoyed my visit. I will point out that the atmosphere is that of a local pool spot so if you are in to the local dive bar feel then this is your spot. Our server was well versed on menu and drink items and the music selection is whatever everybody is feeling on the jukebox. I would go back and eat again.“

“Just ordered a late breakfast for carry out and it was my first time ever eating from El Rancho. My food was ready when they said and it was and still hot when I got it home and very delicious. I LOVE that they serve breakfast all day and my steak was perfect! I’d recommend this place to anyone!“

“Visiting the area for the zoo ! From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with warm smiles and the comforting aroma of fresh spices. I had the Thai salmon over veggies (spicy) with rice — perfectly cooked, flaky, and bursting with flavor. The crab wagons were crispy and addictive, the shrimp tempura light and golden, and the Neptune Feast, with its lightly sauced veggies and crab meat, shrimp, and scallops was absolute perfection. Every bite was fresh, vibrant, and beautifully balanced. Service was quick and friendly, and the cozy atmosphere made the whole experience even better. A must-visit for anyone who loves exceptional Asian cuisine!“

Without question, Cellar Door is the best in downtown Frederick.“

“We've had dinner at the Smokehouse Restaurant several times for our anniversary over the years. The service has always been top notch and the food absolutely fabulous.“

“We have gone a few times and always the food was amazing. My son always ask to go here. We went yesterday and the food was amazing as always except for one of the desserts that was very watery. The only thing we didn’t like was the service this time. The lady seems upset and didn’t seem to want to serve us. I even asked for which pie flavor was the best and her response was I don’t eat pie. Very sad this happened because its an amazing place. They just loss a customer.“

“excellent food, grilled chicken is tender juicy and flavorful...Great 1st time will be back.“

“As four guests visiting for the first time, we all thought the food was great. Service was slow to order a beer and desert was almost cancelled because of time and the glazing did not arrive with one of the deserts and getting a side cup never arrived. The waitress was new and very helpful and will get better with experience. The only disappointment was their Military Discount? They only allow 10% for "active" Military making one feel that veterans just don't qualify? And the 10% you receive is only on the members main meal. So for a $60.61 meal the discount was $1.49? I give the discount I receive back to the wait staff and left a $15.00 tip.“

“We just had the best burgers ever! What a wonderful treat!“

“Great crowd, drinks, and food!“

“We had a great experience here - there was an issue with one of the steaks and the manager Francisco was incredible. He was super courteous and professional, and even got on the grill and remade it himself. We’ll absolutely be coming back.“

“Place to go after you eat at Avery’s. Great DJ and dancing.“

“My husband & I had lunch here today. He had cream of crab & said it was delicious . I had the sub club , best club sandwich ever. Meat was fresh & bread was warm. No more expensive than any where else.“

There is also entertainment in checking out all of the flight memorabilia surrounding each room. You might even be able to check out the landings and takeoffs from your table. Well worth the trip.“
