Best Comfort Food Restaurants in Gaithersburg

Our experience here was amazing. Shoutout to our great server Connor. If he isn’t a lead server make him one TODAY ! So cool, so understanding & honestly great energy. I came for Valentine’s Day with my girlfriend. He told us the specials & even gave some recommendations. We both had steak with mash & green beans. If you are thinking about getting the peartini definitely grab you one. It didn’t disappoint. We will be back !

My husband and I were celebrating both Valentine’s Day and we our 3-year anniversary. We started our evening with a bottle of red wine and the delicious spicy shrimp appetizer, per our server’s suggestion. Our fillets were cooked to perfection. To accompany our entree, we shared two side dishes, the loaded baked potato and the creamed spinach-yum. And ended our meal with the sinfully delicious cheesecake. The service was outstanding- thank you Henry we had a memorable evening. The long stem red rose was a nice touch!

This was our 2nd time visiting this restaurant. Hubby and I went for Valentine's Day. I know they're trying to fit a lot of two-person tables on that day, but it felt awkward to be in the middle of two other couples. It was lovely to be created by a red rose on the table that I can bring home. The service was kind and quick. We received our dishes within 10 minutes. Unfortunately my steak was undercooked. It was corrected immediately, but it just didn't have the wow factor that a $45 fillet should have. Hubby had a burger with fries and said that it tasted nice as well. Definitely better than the average restaurant but he also felt it was missing a wow factor to send it over the top in flavor. The food tasted nice. Definitely better than other restaurants. Like a 4 out of a 5 for taste. We did feel a little rushed to get out with the bill arriving as soon as our meal was over because we were not having dessert. Again, this is probably because it was Valentine's Day. The staff was kind and considerate and nice the entire time though. We would definitely return. But I probably wouldn't get the filet again, because it wasn't quite the quality that it should have been.

We have eaten in and ordered take out meals several times from FF and have enjoyed all of them. We made reservations for Valentine's Day dinner. There was a delay in getting our food because it was so busy, but our server, Douglas, acknowledged and apologized for the delay and kept informing us of the status of our meals (many restaurants do not do this, so it was much appreciated). My husband's meal was fine, but the pasta in my entree was not cooked properly. I ate less than half of my meal. We brought this to the attention of the manager. She agreed with our comments and said she would inform the kitchen. She offered to bring another entree, but we declined because it was so late. She stated she would remove the charge for the pasta meal from our bill and offered a free desert, which we accepted and took home with us. This incident will not deter us from eating at FF again because their meals have always been good before and the service was great. It was also refreshing to eat at a restaurant with so much integrity. The management promptly provided several options to remediate the issue. This attention to customer service is not always seen in restaurants, but we saw it at FF and we really appreciated it.

Wonderful. Service was great! Ancient grains bowl with grass fed beef was five stars. Well done.
