We had an absolutely amazing meal last night. The beet appetizer will be ordered every time. The rockfish and the salmon were sublime and I refuse to pick a favorite. The Brussel sprouts were crispy and creamy. To finish we had the lemon meringue and wye oak cake- both whimsical and delicious. The service was friendly and very helpful with wine and food choices. Absolutely a fantastic addition to Frederick!

Loved Wye Oak Tavern! The building is beautiful and the interior is gorgeous. We ordered the Tavern rolls with ham to start. They were delicious. The guys had the burgers and we all shared the macaroni and the Brussels sprouts. Everything was top notch! The martini was served on a silver tray. It was in a nice rocks glass with a square block of ice. Beside it was an extra mini-carafe of the excess martini in it sitting on ice to keep it cold! Can’t wait to go back!

For a restaurant only being open a few days I was impressed on how well the service ran and the food was excellent. Very excited to have a new Voltaggio restaurant in the area. Only bummer is no open kitchen, but the space is beautiful.

Congratulations to Chef Michael Voltaggio and Chef Bryan Voltaggio on the Grand Opening of their restaurant at the Wye Oak Tavern. It was a pleasure to share in the experience and to enjoy their extraordinary culinary creations! We particularly savored the Cold Fried Chicken Pate, the Cheese Ravioli (Bryan’s signature dish), and the Rigatoni. All the dishes were elevated by the brilliant wine pairings suggested by their remarkable sommelier, Steven Zmuda.
