Bentztown

Great spot for late night date or enjoying the music. The place has a great bar setup, Happy Hour deals, and friendly staffs. The food is great as well as drinks. Try smoked old fashioned!

Bentztown is a charming restaurant in Frederick that features Southern food, delicious drinks and live music. The restaurant is decorated in warm, rich tones, with tables placed close together in the cozy space. The waitstaff is incredibly friendly, accommodating and willing to answer any questions patrons may have.There's something different about that food that was really interesting. Many dishes had a sweet tinge to them that I enjoyed. The french fries have a sweet and salty flavor, and the greens have an outstanding balance of savory, sweet and heat. I ordered a non-alcoholic cocktail, a strawberry mint sipper, and I absolutely LOVED it!If you're interested in something a little different while hanging out in downtown Frederick, give Bentztown a try.

I visited randomly to see an old friend who lives in Frederick for lunch and it was pretty empty. This is a huge restaurant in downtown Frederick. The interior looks really new and modern. The waitress was really kind and it was a cold day so she gave us a warm glass of water with lemon in it to start. Honestly, the entire restaurant is pretty average at like a 3.5 but because the burger was so spectacular I'm giving it four stars. The menu is pretty southern, but everything reads really sweet and we got an order of hush puppies and they were definitely not. They were too big and no corn and it was drizzled in this weird maple syrup. The manager was kind and took it off her bill, but then told us to read the menu, but upon looking at the menu, there's nothing that would suggest that it's not a traditional hush puppy. The drinks here are pretty well priced and honestly worth coming just to get the burger. If you see a lot, that does not belong to them there is Paid Street parking, and I found out a couple blocks up the road free street parking.

We arrived on Saturday evening with a table reservation near stage. Love music was great, sense was great, and food was yummy. I order the hot chicken sandwich, it was good , a little extra crispy. I've had Nashville hot chicken before and assumed it was drenched in flavor but instead had hot sauce drizzled on it so that was different for me. We had a hard time finding parking and had to walk almost two blocks. Wish they could allow customer to park in lot on side of restaurant that's empty during dinner time. Great night with great friends!

Came here for an after work happy hour with some coworkers and we had a great time! We parked at the nearby garage and walked - it wasn't a bad walk. The place is super well decorated with different types of seating from standard tables with chairs to high tops to bar seating to comfortable couches and chairs for a more relaxed vibe. The smoked Parmesan fries were very good but the garlic aioli is very garlicky so be aware! The bartender was super cool and friendly with our group. We felt welcomed for sure! The Violet Empress and Georgia on My Mind martinis were very good and a $9 special on Thursdays!

I came here to support a friends of a friends or a friends band that was playing in a Saturday night. Parking is a bit indirect, but not that bad. One option is the west parking garage but that costs money to park. The walk is about 6-7 mins, but you do get a glimpse of the canal. It was packed on a Saturday night, which is a good sign. The bar area was packed! It was a bit hard to get drinks and/or water: they were working hard and there were 5-6 behind the bar. The drinks were okay. I didn't think too much about it. It was just something nice to have in hand while I was watching the band play. The live music has their own section which is sectioned off from the restaurant portion which is nice. Usually restaurants just have a corner available for bands by moving a table. Here, it's a whole stage set up just for bands. For diners, if you're close to this area, the music may be too loud. The live music was loud and it can be hard to hear any conversation without shouting. So it's a give or take. If you want both live music and food, the experience of one portion has to give. If you're here just for the live music, it's basically a mini concert at floor level. If you're here for the food during a live event, you're eating at a place with the volume set at max. At all other times, I can see this place being a cool place to hang and drink and talk. It has the vibe of a regular bar - wood, browns, and soft lighting.

Great spot to grab drinks and food with a group. Weather was great so and we snagged the table right next to the open garage door. Chris was our server and was excellent with our group of 11. Espresso martinis were on point and the food was delish. Would go back again!

Met up with a friend and we chose this place to check out! Our first time and we loved it! It was during brunch and they had plenty of options we weren't as hungry so we shared two apps and were extremely satisfied with it. The salmon toast was HUGE and filling! The deviled eggs were a bit more elevated than your typical and done right! Our hostess was so sweet and recommended the peach bellini which had peach crown royal and it was divine! Had to get another round! We chatted with one of the managers there and had an all around great vibe to the place.

My husband and I have been here a few times and we are enjoying this restaurant. The food is unique, southern comfort food with plenty of flavor and spice. They have a really nice whiskey selection and fun cocktails to try at brunch. The service has been great each time, and I really love it when they have the doors wide open for a nice breeze. The last time we went, they had live music and it was great! We like this place and recommend you give it a try. Parking kind of stinks though since they don't have a lot and it's just street parking so plan ahead for that.

Great food and service! We went for happy hour and their happy hour margarita was huge and delicious! The staff were friendly and very attentive, the food was delicious! For appetizers, we got the hush puppies and the wings, the wings were pretty small for the price but still good! We got the smash burger and the pig roll, both were amazing! A great atmosphere, definitely will be coming back!
