   what are the like to find such a beautiful restaurant in an equally lovely hotel. We had the best seat in the house upstairs. The servers were charming and polite. The cocktails were creative and inventive. All of our food was delicious.

   Very obnoxious server. Started service off by letting us know he didn’t have “time for [us] right now.” It was our anniversary and I specifically asked the manager if my wife could at least go down to the kitchen and take a picture with Bryan Voltaggio. The manager said “yes, I think we can make that happen. Let me go and see if he’s available.” The manager never returned. The food was not as expected. The only truly delicious dish was the beef tartare. The portions are small(ish). We had the 45-day aged ribeye and swordfish. The ribeye was not trimmed properly. The swordfish was a small portion and was not fresh, it was frozen. The whole service, including two starters, two entrees, and three sides took two and a half hours.

   Highly recommend this for a special occasion. Pricey but entirely worth it. Great service and exceptional food. We had the whipped ricotta cheese cake appetizer it was savory and delicious. The filets were possibly the best we have ever had. Fork tender and great taste with it without the sauce provided.

   Very different setting, an old chapel? Great service. A bit noisy, very crowded around the bar. My wife ordered the Beet Salad (very tasty) I ordered the Baby Romaine which was huge, suitable for splitting. My wife ordered the Soft Shell Crab special. It was one of the largest soft shells I have ever seen. I ordered the melt in your mouth, perfectly cooked Prime Rib. So tender, you dont need teeth to eat it:). Apple Dumpling for dessert. Yummmm.

   Lovely experience. Food outstanding, ordered the short rib pot roast. Staff very accommodating helping us gain access to the accessible entrance. Elevator straight into dining area. Bar not accessible, but bar table area is. Valets were friendly and very accommodating since we had a wheelchair. On property All parking is valet. Spaces on the street are an option if you can find one. Must park and enter from Church St side of property.

   This was the best meal I’ve ever had. The steak was cooked to perfection. The French fries were amazing. The ambience made the meal even better. Our service was great. Worth every cent.

   Service was friendly and very attentive. Food was wonderful - coddies, shrimp and grits, pot roast and the best was rockfish. Oustanding experience. Noise level was out of control.

    WYE tavern is led by renowned chefs, Bryan and Michael Voltaggio. The only thing I can say is WOW! The food is top notch, and some of the best food I have had. I have lived all over the world and WYE was recommended by a colleague and it did not disappoint. It is a little on the pricey side, but well worth it. Anyone visiting the Frederick MD area should absolutely check out this restaurant, which sits off the street in the Visitation Hotel. The restaurant sits inside an old church that has been renovated, and the ambience is stunning along with the preservation of original paintings and 30’ stained glass windows. Excellent service, excellent ambience, and some of the best food I’ve ever had in a while. Highly recommend!
