AcaciaGreat food and serviceExcellent dinner the other night at Acacia. The service was prompt and friendly and the food was terrific. I also felt the check was very fair. The only drawbacks were (1) We shared a cheese sampler and I felt the size of the samples was a little weak for $16 (2) The other problem was that on their website (which cleary states that it is a sample menu) indicated that almost all of their entrees were available as small plates for a reduced price, yet when we got there there was only one entree that could be ordered as a small plate - although their list of appetizers was quite lengthy.5/14/2013 12:00:00 AMAcacia great for special occasion!We combined my son's birthday and Mother's Day and Acacia lived up to two special occasions. Delicious from start to finish, interesting flavor and food combinations. Travelled over 100 miles to eat there and would go back.5/11/2013 12:00:00 AMAcacia Pre Mothers day lunchI having grown up in Frederick always love going down to Market st to see all the evolution and revitalization. Acacia is right at the heart of Church and Market and is a great little place. Fresh high quality food with Mediterranean roots. This place is not for the corporate trough feeders who look for quantity to determine value, so If you like Olive Garden for its "authentic" Italian you'll feel this place is very expensive. Having been a chef for 20 years and knowing what it takes to prepare high quality food with simple simple quality ingredients this place has real value for quality. Acacia is excellent for a real high quality meal in a non pretentious overhyped and really comfortable environment.5/11/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat food and serviceThe food and service at Acacia is excellent. I dined with three others and we all enjoyed our food, from the appeitizers/snacks to our entrees and desserts (order the homemade ice cream...it's fantastic). The dishes are a bit small (compared with normal American portion sizes), but were just enough for a great, filling meal. I ordered the scallops and was not disappointed. The tables are situated closely together, making it a bit noisy, but it was still a nice experience. Our server was fantastic...very attentive, but not too attentive.5/11/2013 12:00:00 AMAcacia diningWe had a 5:30 Friday reservation to ensure that we could get to the Weinberg at 6:30 or so. There was almost no one in the dining area at that time although there were plenty in the bar area. We were seated promptly and our waitress appeared immediately. We both ordered crabcakes and the Acacia Chardonnay. Both were excellent. The cheesecake for desert was quite good also. And we had plenty of time to make the concert after a leisurely meal thanks to the prompt service. We will definitely return.5/10/2013 12:00:00 AMOut Of Towners enjoy this placeWe live about an hour north of Frederick & have friends who live about an hour east. We meet at Acacia a couple of times a year for dinner and always have a delightful time. The food is fabulous, service is very good, and the prices are reasonable. if the weather's nice we like to eat on the back patio .... very quiet and private. We've tried several of the restaurants in Frederick and found them all very good but Acacia is the best combination of ambience, food, service and price & has become our favorite. A Plus - it's right across the street from the parking garage.5/4/2013 12:00:00 AMThis was our 3rd or 4th timeThis was our 3rd or 4th time driving up to Acacia, and it was well worth the trip. Food is excellent, and it is just a joy.
Only wish they were closer.4/27/2013 12:00:00 AMNice ambience, attentive serviceNice ambience, attentive service and delicious menu! I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Upscale and mature; yet comfortable and relaxed. The surprised free warm chocolate doughnut rolls covered with powdered sugar and chocolate drip appetizers were tantalizing! A definite 'must go back'.4/21/2013 12:00:00 AMExcellent service! Best ever!! ThaExcellent service! Best ever!!

We partook of the small size and ordered two different entrees instead of one large one. I had a surf and turf selection of the bronzino and jargerschnitzel for my land pertion. Both were very good. It was a unique experience by all.4/6/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat for BrunchWe went for Easter Sunday brunch with our 5 month old infant. Not only was the entire staff friendly in a place where babies don't generally go, but many made a point to stop by and say hello to her. Our server Alid was, as always, amazing and fantastic and I can't say enough good things about her! Her service always exceeds excellence and this time was no different. Always ask for Alix when making a reservation!!!3/31/2013 12:00:00 AMHad a wonderful dinner thereHad a wonderful dinner there with my wife and a dear old friend, celebrating my 60th birthday! Food was great and service was great! Highly recommend it!3/30/2013 12:00:00 AMIt was an exceptionally lovelyIt was an exceptionally lovely dining experience. The food was excellent, the service would have been as well but for some reason our waitress forgot to mention the specials for the evening...for which she was most apologetic.
Spacious dining area overlooking a terrace which I assume is open for dining in warmer months as it was, it afforded a pleasantly landscaped view.
We will return to Acacia and are already talking about when! We will recommend it to our friends..it is a gem.3/17/2013 12:00:00 AM
