Best Comfort Food Restaurants in Gaithersburg

I booked the restaurant for a company team holiday get together. The hostess was very accommodating allowing me to get seated while waiting for the team to arrive. Out waitress Michelle was very sweet and attentive. Food was good and all had a great time. A couple took some of the famous donuts home as well!

Met a friend for lunch on a holiday. Reservation was easy to make, though venue did change seating from outside to inside (it was freezing outside, so no worries!). Food menu had plenty of variety and creative dishes, including a hot drinks menu. Entrees all looked intriguing and dessert menu would have sold itself if I hadn't been so full! Food was cooked perfectly (I had the Steak Frites with fall vegetable side) and I really enjoyed the range of texture and flavor. Seating was sufficiently apart so that the noise level was not bad at all. Prices were reasonable for the food provided. Lastly, service was informed, efficient and polite/friendly. Plenty of parking, even on a day where a lot of snow was still on the ground. Definitely no complaints and I will be back again! I recommend this restaurant (Montgomery County venue) without reservation!

Our server, Natalie did a great job of delivering really delicious food to us. She recommended the spatchcock chicken and it was fantastic, I might not have ordered that myself, but her encouragement of how good it was prompted me to do so, and she was spot on! The music may have been a little louder than I like last night Sometimes it’s difficult to hear my guest.

I've been here for a Bachelorette Party and Brunch. I highly recommend this place for any celebration. Its a little pricey but worth it.

Our recent visit to Founding Farmers was exceptional, offering a delightful culinary journey that pleased the entire family. We began by sharing the Buttermilk Biscuits and a medley of autumn vegetables. The biscuits were impressively large, featuring a crunchy exterior that gave way to a soft, fluffy center—truly a perfect start to our meal. For the main courses: •Youngest Son: Opted for the Sirloin Chili, which he thoroughly enjoyed. The chili boasted a balanced spiciness, making it both flavorful and approachable. •Mom: Chose the Goat Cheese Ravioli & Chicken Cutlet, a dish accompanied by butternut squash purée and pecan praline butter. The combination was exquisite, earning a solid 9.7/10 for its harmonious flavors and presentation.  •Dad: Selected the Farmhouse Platter, which included fried chicken, BBQ pork ribs, baby cheeseburgers, street corn, and coleslaw. He cleared his plate, a testament to the meal’s excellence.  •Teenager: Enjoyed the Meatloaf & Gravy, served with mashed potatoes and green beans. He expressed high praise for the dish, noting its rich flavor and satisfying portion.  Even the house-made sodas were delightful, adding a refreshing touch to our dining experience. Our waiter, Anthony, provided outstanding service, enhancing our meal with his attentive and friendly demeanor. The food was so impressive that we decided to purchase the restaurant’s cookbook to recreate some of the dishes at home. Founding Farmers offers a warm atmosphere, exceptional service, and delectable farm-to-table cuisine. It’s a dining experience we highly recommend and look forward to repeating.
