    We had a somewhat awkward experience with a very loud table next to us and uneven timing and service from multiple servers. We’ll go back at a less busy time.

    My girls and their friend had their Prom dinner here while I went and had a dinner up at the bar. All of us loved our food...it was so good and got two thumbs up from all. I would say about the only down side at all is they were a little hemmed in and it was pretty loud but that was just because it was a friday night and they were absolutely packed but with food like that and great service, it's no wonder why.

    I’ve been to Monocacy Crossing several times and each has been excellent. The bar area is nice and inviting. They pour larger martinis than anyone. Service—from the front of the house, the bar, to the tables—is first rate. The menu is vast and well executed. Even for a weeknight the energy is buzzing. Comfy seating. Outdoor dining looks inviting. A top Frederick area eatery. We started with spicy pickled veggies, delicious. I had a grilled Caesar salad with grilled salmon. Very good. My mom had the hangar steak with a small side salad and mashed potatoes, which she enjoyed. Overall, a solid A.

    We were seated in a corner next to a group that was EXTREMELY loud. It made it very hard to hear our companions. Then around the corner, an infant was screaming. While all should be welcome, it seems people aren’t aware anymore of others around them 🤔

    I like the new spring '25 menu. There are a lot of little this's and that's that pair well with cocktails. I can't remember the last time I saw steak tartare on a menu. It's wonderful to have the patio open again.
