The tasting room was delightful. We came here to celebrate my husband's birthday. Our two appetizers were delectable - beef tartar and octopus. My dinner choice of scallops was perfectly cooked, my husband's shrimp gumbo was pretty good. The dessert of blueberry Pavlova was a perfect combination of sweet and crunchy and a little sour and creamy. Definitely recommend! Our server was perfect. She brought my husband a little birthday candle on a platter with little treats! Great experience.

Really enjoyed my meal here. On the pricey side but everything was very good. The carpaccio app was crazy good. This is for sure one of the top restaurants in Fredrick.

Must try! My fiance & I went on my birthday for dinner & so glad we did. Located conveniently in downtown Frederick. It was a busy weekday evening & we did not make reservations, so we waited for about 15 minutes. The hostess was great & we opted to sit inside, although they did have patio seating available. Our servers, Marco & Jessica, delivered excellent customer service & were very friendly & attentive. We ordered the Lily Pad & Blueberry Lenonade cocktails, which were delicious & well balanced. We ordered the mussels, crab cakes & house salad...everything was amazing!! They even brought out a dessert sampler with a candle for my birthday, which was a lovely touch. Excellent experience & looking forward to returning soon!

The Tasting Room is one of my favorite fine dining spots in Frederick. The service, presentation, and the food/drinks are always immaculate! Something I like about The Tasting Room, they have a seasonal menu but the staples don't change! So you always have the classics to fall back on if you don't want to try something new. You want to dress at least business casual. TR is a little pricey but totally worth it! I would NOT recommend bringing children here.

I met a friend here for dinner and drinks and I love this restaurant. It’s crazy I can’t believe that I’ve never been to this restaurant before. I love how Frederick has so many gems to choose from for great food. If you’ve never been to The Tasting Room it’s perfect for date night, girls night out (which is what I did), or for cool place to chill and relax at the bar solo. Let me begin by saying that our waitress, Jessica, was so helpful and knowledgeable of the menu to make suggestions on food and drink options. She was so polite and welcoming, and I immediately I felt like this restaurant was on point with the service. The cocktails were amazing. I had the Blueberry Lemonade & Summer Sangria, and my friend had a Aperol Spritz with Gin. We also had wine with our entree’s Our food was delicious! We started with the crab dip, and it was good. I ordered the NY Strip and it was so good, but my only issue is that I ordered it to be cooked medium. The first one was overcooked, and Jessica and the Manager offered for it to be sent back and replaced with a new one. I have to give it to them because, they were so nice about it and quickly brought out a new one. The second was cooked the way I liked it, but because they put it on a “hot plate” it continued to cook. So by the time I got to the end of the steak it was well done, and I lost interest in finishing it. Even though I really wanted to finish it and the steak was such a great cut, seasoned to perfection, and delicious otherwise. The side dishes were really good as well. Finally, I usually don’t have any room for dessert, but because the food was the perfect portions and not “heavy,” I was able to have dessert. So, my friend and split the Creme Brûlée. OMGOODNESS! So good! The strawberry compote made it even better for me! I loved it! It was perfect! If you’re thinking about checking out The Tasting Room, I definitely recommend it and I will be returning
