Best Restaurants for Anniversaries in Gaithersburg

Oh my! I’ve been going to Clyde’s restaurants for decades. They’ve been special in their own ways: very good, mid-priced food, nice decors, and excellent service. This was my first time at Tower Oaks and, as soon as I walked in, I wanted to spend the week! Though that’s not possible, I do think their setting and ‘lodge’ decor are like the most exquisite National Park or luxury lodge I’ve been in. In the same Clyde’s fashion, no detail is spared and the tables are spacious and not at all crowded! Dawn was our server and she was top-notch; including when we wanted mussels but couldn’t eat the spicy preparation on the menu, she volunteered to speak with the kitchen about using the lemon butter on the cod and throwing in some garlic. It was divine! And we complemented it by a market salad with greens, apples, and pears and a white Balsamic dressing. We were seated in a large booth overlooking the forest. As we walked out, I saw a formal dining room with large round tables. I’ll be sure to bring our family group of 6-8 to enjoy what a round table offers. Could not have been happier! Since covid, we’re still not eating out a lot; this was a rare and perfect treat! Kudos!

Another great experience at the Brasserie. We had a great meal, served by a great team -- Danny the host welcomed us, Jose made us drinks and Sondra served us. We shared the smoked salmon plate, medaliions of beef and a chocolate soufle. We can't wait to come back.

Great, friendly service and delicious food. There are so many options on the menu depending on what you’re in the mood for. The desserts are great too.

We’ve been going here for years and it is always excellent! Service is exemplary, food is first class. Atmosphere is magical . Hoping that we can spend many more happy times there.

The restaurant was very busy, with a lot of people taking advantage of the free 4-course for veterans on Veterans Day. Despite that, they achieved their usual level of awesomeness. They handled our special requests easily, were attentive and friendly, and got everything to the table in a timely manner.
