Monocacy Crossing

We went to this restaurant hoping for a nice family outdoor lunch on a Friday at noon. Unfortunately, when we arrived, the hostess informed us that they were not accepting walk-ins, despite there being two open tables outside and several available inside. She was rather rude in brushing us off. It was our fault for not making a reservation, but we decided to check OpenTable on our phone and saw that reservations were available in 20 minutes and throughout the afternoon. It would have been helpful if the hostess had mentioned this option or informed us of the wait time. The poor customer service left a bad taste in our mouths, so we didn't bother making a reservation and left instead. Overall, a disappointing experience.

The dining experience was incredible. The food was exceptional and the staff were outstanding.

We arrived earlier than our reservation, were seated right away and Mackenzie was our lovely waiter. Garlic Pretzel knots were delicious, dinner entrees (Hanger steak and bacon wrapped beef medallions) were amazing! We definitely will be back!

All six diners enjoyed their main courses. The apps were delicious and the presentation was beautiful. Our server, Josie, was attentive without being overbearing. She was knowledgeable regarding the food as well as the wine and cocktails. We enjoyed her pleasant bantering and hope to return soon.

This is a place to be enjoyed outdoor on the deck or patio. It is very serene. Our server was lovely and attentive. The food we ate was outstanding, including the hangar steak and the pork tenderloin. Try one of the flavored iced coffees for dessert.
