Food was delicious ! Great atmosphere. Huge space.
For apps we got the parm fries and gumbo
Gumbo was only okay (no spice) the fries were DELICIOUS.
For dinner my husband got the burger and I got the grilled cheese brisket. SO GOOD! I would not recommend the chips though.
Very filling. Very quick. We will be coming back!

Went here for the first time with two other couples, age ranges from 29-60 and loved it. We were seated right away on a Friday night around 6 and were fortunate to get Dillon as our server. He helped us get Happy Hour prices before it ended at 6. Ordered a slider trio and a Nashy Hot Chicken, with a house Cab and a Potomac Cider. Dillon was super efficient, got our orders correct and we never were in need of anything that he did not take care of almost right away.
Atmosphere was fun, noise level was not too bad for a Friday night. The band was just setting up as we were leaving so we did not get to hear them. Loved it and we will be back!

Bentztown is a true gem! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted warmly by the kind and welcoming receptionists who immediately set a friendly tone for the afternoon. The menu is as fun as it is flavorful—creative dishes bursting with bold tastes and thoughtful pairings. Whether you’re craving comfort food or something with a fresh twist, you’ll find plenty to love here.
Service was impressively fast without feeling rushed. Our meals came out perfectly timed and piping hot, and the staff was attentive throughout without hovering. We especially loved the outdoor seating—comfortable, well-spaced, and ideal for enjoying the fresh air while dining. The ambiance is relaxed and stylish, making it perfect for everything from date night to dinner with friends.
And we can’t forget the drinks! Their handcrafted margaritas are a must-try. Each one is balanced and refreshing, but the peach margarita stole the show for me—light, fruity, and dangerously delicious.
Highly recommend Bentztown for anyone looking for great food, great vibes, and top-notch service. We’ll definitely be back!

We came here on a Friday night at 5:00. We were seated immediately. My wife had a 0 alcohol beer and said it was good. We had the deviled eggs for our appetizer, they were good! The presentation was really nice. We both had the pork and grits. It was a unique dish and very tasty. We both took half the dish home! This place is hopping and lively! It can be quite loud but it is very fun!

Me and my buddy went here for lunch. I wasn’t very crowded but the service was great and the atmosphere was nice. They had a big selection of drinks. We both decided to get their watermelon pomegranate beer. I got some gumbo alongside the double smashburger they have adding a sunny side up egg on top. Would highly recommend their menu is small but good. Their drink menu is fantastic as well. 10 out of 10 would recommend. They also offer kids menus there too.

I’m so excited this spot is in downtown Frederick! I’m a line dancer from NJ so very excited to see line dancing here and will have to come back for the line dancing at some point! Great atmosphere and vibe! Service was very good! We started with the hush puppies which were delicious! They were actually super sweet and reminded me more of like a beignet or dessert item. My favorite item I ordered! I also got the red sangria. It was a little heavy on the soda or mixer that was used and I’m not a fan of bubbles. It was not my favorite sangria as I personally look for super sweet and no carbonation. I ordered the pulled pork sandwich. It was good but did not blow me away. I also felt it was a little on the dry side. My favorite pulled pork is from the Angry Chourico food truck in NJ which is my standard of comparison. We also ordered the gumbo. I more so wanted to try gumbo because I’ve never had it. The gumbo was very spicy! But this is coming from someone who can’t handle any level of spiciness. I do think I would have enjoyed it if it were more bland and the spice cut back. Overall, lovely date night with my husband, good food, and great service!

Awesome little find just a block from MET and the Weinberg. Stopped in for brunch on Saturday and the place was just delightful. Staff was friendly and attentive, food came out promptly, and everything was delicious. They carry unique versions of classic dishes that are well worth checking out. Hubby and I both had a fried chicken sandwich – I got the Brunch Bird and he had the Nashy Hot. He got fries and I had the breakfast potatoes. You really can’t go wrong with either! We also had a starter of deviled eggs. Definitely putting them on my list to revisit. The Farm Bowl sounds amazing. Consider browsing the menu online before you go – it’s hard to choose because everything sounds so good!

Came here after the first place we wanted to go to had already closed the kitchen for the night. I ordered the autumn harvest salad + a strawberry mint spritzer (idr the exact name but it was one of their nonalcoholic), my bf ordered their old fashioned and their brisket dish (came with Mac n cheese and collard greens). Vibes were immaculate, our waiter was an absolute delight, and the hostess had us sat quickly. It’s a kind of a small place but you’re not right on top of the other tables so that was nice. Definitely recommend if you’re in the area looking for a dinner/late night bite after a local event!!

My daughter and I had the most beautiful experience at Bentztown in Frederick, MD last night!
From the moment we walked in, the energy was welcoming and family-oriented. Everyone greeted us with kindness, and that warmth continued throughout our entire visit. The atmosphere was peaceful, joyful, and full of positive vibes — they even had dancing, which made it feel so lively and fun!
Let’s talk about the food — absolutely amazing.
I ordered the brisket grilled cheese with homemade chips and OMG… those chips deserve their own spotlight. So fresh and flavorful! For our appetizer, we had the crab dip with garlic bread and the cutest wooden square crackers — such a nice presentation and so delicious. My daughter ordered the kids mac & cheese with french fries and hers was just as amazing.
I also ordered tea, and I loved that they offer organic options. The teacup presentation was classy and adorable — those small details make a big difference.
Now let me highlight our waitress, Presley. She was beyond wonderful. So attentive, kind, and engaging. She checked on us often, interacted warmly, and truly made us feel valued. She represents the brand beautifully — honestly, she deserves a promotion! You can tell the staff is very well trained and takes pride in what they do.
Even the uniforms stood out — the all-black t-shirts with names paired with denim were stylish and cohesive. The interior design is phenomenal and adds to the high-end yet comfortable experience.
Bentztown delivered exceptional service, delicious food, and an unforgettable atmosphere. We will absolutely be back to explore more of the menu — everything sounded incredible.
Thank you for such a wonderful experience!
