Two elements of eating at a restaurant Food (which is source, preparation and plating) and Service are so closely related that a deficit in one area affects the other. For example: Good food but poor service, you might go back, hoping for a different server. Poor food but great service, you won't be back.
Likewise, when food and service are in tune, there is a synergy that raises to 'event' level. Such is the case at The Restaurant at Patowmack Farm. Both the quality of the dishes and the manner in which they are served at Five Star and is certainly, Michlin Star quality, in my opinion (and I've eaten at some of the best).
It is nearly impossible to select one or two courses that stand out: All were individual delights! As I review the menu (provided by the restaurant as you leave), each item brings back a picture to my mind and an assortment of flavors that I don't remember ever having before.
The menu is seasonal so, as it is Autumn, there were tree fruits, root vegetables, amazing pumpkin ravioli, smoked Cobia, Quail, mushrooms, and squash, among others. All delicious and served with personal care.
There is a wine pairing option as well as a 'mocktail' pairing to go with your meal.
A very nice selection of wines is available from a list that, fortunately, is not pages and pages long. Our server, John, was quite knowledgeable, as I feel all the staff are. I opted to bring my own wine, which the restaurant allows, at a reasonable corkage fee. Although I brought it, it was opened and served as if it was the finest gem from the restaurant's own cellar.
So stop reading and make a reservation. If you really enjoy what happens when wonderful food and service come together, you will not be sorry!
