Frederick Eats Local, Urbana, MD (2026)

🇮🇹 🌋 A cozy corner, next-level pasta, and a little taste of modern Italy… what do they have in common? One word: .

We finally made it to Vesuvius in Urbana, and let’s just say… consider us officially obsessed. This spot is a refreshing addition to the Frederick food scene — upscale but approachable, stylish without trying too hard, and the kind of place you immediately start planning your next visit before dessert even hits the table.

We kicked things off with the grilled octopus and polenta antipasti (tender, flavorful, chef’s kiss). Then came the lobster ravioli and the seafood zafferano, both packed with bold, beautifully balanced flavors.

Dessert? A deconstructed cannoli and a chocolate lava cake that disappeared way too fast. No regrets.

And the cocktails? Two of the best we’ve had all year. The Somma Smash and Carina’s Fig were bright, balanced, and dangerously sippable.

✨ Have you been to Andaz Frederick yet? It's located on Mill Pond Road in Frederick, and we're obsessed. This place is a much-needed addition to the area. From the ambiance to the creative menu, it's worth stopping by.

The food is beautifully presented and packed with flavor. They offer a modern fusion twist and include fusion dishes you may not see at other Indian restaurants, which makes the menu even more inviting.

🎣🐔 We tried the Kulam Branzino and the Chicken Tikka, 🔥 also: the naan stuffed with goat cheese. Yes, you read that right.

🍮 For dessert, the gulab jamun churros stole the show — the kind of unexpected combo that totally works. And the rasmalai cake was delicious as well.

Check them out.

Sweethaus Treats had been on the list forever — and it finally happened. Frederick finally has a dessert spot that feels straight out of the DC scene, and yes, it’s worth the hype.

The space is full of charm: flower-covered ceiling, swing by the wall, and a super modern digital ordering setup. It’s part dessert bar, part daydream.

They’re known for bubble waffles and over-the-top milkshakes, and everything looks as good as it tastes.

Pro tip: try the Dolce Cinnamon bubble waffle — we swapped the coffee ice cream for vanilla (because not everyone loves coffee in dessert) and it totally worked. Caramel drizzle and a wafer stick for the win.

Ironically located right next to a dentist, but hey — balance, right?

If you’re just looking for tacos and margaritas, you’ll find all the essentials, including steak, fish, and birria tacos, served with cilantro, onion, rice, and black beans.

🇰🇷🍖🍲 KPOT Korean BBQ & Hot Pot Frederick is the place to be if you're a fan of Korean food. Or, if you've never tried it and want your first time to be an experience, not just another plate put in from of you.

The interactive, all-you-can-eat element of this dining experience is what makes it special. Think hibachi, except you make it on your own - either on a grill ($30) or in a pot, or both ($35). Going for lunch will save you $10pp, and you want to get there early or get on the waitlist.

They have a wide range of broth soups to select from as the base for your hot pot, sides, vegetables, and for the all types of meat for the bbq, some marinated, from seafood and chicken, to cuts of beef and pork.

The Frederick location has been open since October 2024, and they have several in Maryland.

📸🍽:
- Beef bulgogi (my favorite)
-Finger ribs
-Hanger steak
-Spicy salmon
-Pork belly
-Cumin Lamb

- Passion fruit cold tea (also included in the experience. A couple of flavours, not too sweet, plus they have a full bar)

We also got some kimchi, edamame, mushrooms, and onion, in additonal a bunch of sauces, fresh cilantro, green onion, and seasoning, and several other meats.

🍨🐄 The best kind of ice cream is when you know the source, have a general idea of the ingredients (simple and fresh), have a lot of options to select from, and when the home base is one of your local creameries!

🍕🍝🇮🇹🥗If you are looking for a different environment from fine dining white table clothes but still crave some authentic-Italian inspired food, definitely try Ricci Italian Restaurant. They were a great addition to the Worman's Mill neighborhood when they first arrived, and going there in the summertime when the live music is going on is the best. However, anytime works!

They have everything from wood-fire grilled fish, steaks, and pizza to a variety of pastas, salads, and decadent desserts. There is a beautiful patio accessible to the bar and offer some great service. The plates come out appealing, and the cocktails are well made.

Happy dining!

🍗✨️ Showroom will hopefully remain in Frederick for a very long time! The menu offers a modern take on comfort food and has a little something for everyone. If you are looking for some of the best fried chicken in the area, you have to try theirs. It's perfectly succulent, crispy on the outside, and flavourful. Better yet, the chicken is served with some pickled veggies and buttermilk biscuits you will want to horde.

Showroom is also known for their brunch (7 days a week), so you won't go wrong there either. They also offer specials throughout the year, for example, around Mardi Gras season.

💡Fun fact: The space was inspired by a former car dealership located on the industrial east side of Frederick.

Check them out!

-Watermelon Gazpacho
-Fried 1/2 Chicken
