I remember coming to Founding Farmers in MoCo (our favorite location) when it just opened years ago. The wait was long despite having reservations, the restaurant was crowded, the conversations in the restaurant were loud and lively. And despite the wait, the crowd, the noise, we always had a great experience! The food is consistently good - perhaps less in quantity/volume than in previous years (only one small piece of chicken in chicken and waffles when they used to give two, or a bigger one piece), but still good! The beignets are still a delicious treat! And the eggs benedict with crab cake was so yummy! But enough about all this! Id like to talk about Cam, our server. She was attentive, anticipating what we might need or want and offering suggestions! We appreciate that quality! She came by our table frequently making sure we were happy. I even invited her to pull a seat so she could join us! Friendly, knowledgeable, professional, neat, attentive. Thank you for making our visit special, Cam!
Been wanting to try this plaza for a while but today was the day! It was a very good experience, the food was good service was efficient, clean! The men's bathroom was darker than I'd liked. While taking my 7 year old daughter to use the bathroom the only one stall they had was so dark I needed to turn my phone flashlight on in order to see
Dined in for breakfast this morning. Great service by our server Maria G. Very attentive and friendly. She made sure to always check up and asked if we needed anything else. Food was delicious as always. Highly recommend Founding farmers great quality service and food.
A manager by the name of Alex at the Potomac, MD location did a great at understanding the importance of a life threatening anaphylactic allergy. He certainly put customer service as a top priority and I appreciated it.
The Thanksgiving meal was good, but I do prefer their regular menu.
I can’t say enough good about our experience at Founder’s. The service, atmosphere, food were a collective collaborative 10/10 with our server Tavis. I don’t often write reviews but I was truly taken aback and honestly wish I could live closer to experience this more often. Highly recommend.
Ohh my former stomping ground! Been coming here for years! Love the brunch selection and stick with the chicken salad, chicken and waffles, steak and pasta. Will be back when I’m in town and enjoy the entertainment from the bar. 👊👊👊
A popular place for breakfast based solely on the number of customers at the restaurant on a Friday morning.
Our breakfast was filling and full of flavor.
Coffee was frequently refilled - complete with a question "Do you want any coffee to go ?"
Truly enjoyed our dining experience at MoCo's Founding Farmers restaurant.
Having lunch with a friend from Michigan and we had a great time...food, friendship and fun! I might also add that I had my grandson and nephew with me too and the had fun as well. My nephew loved his pancakes and my grandson loved the fried green tomatoes...who knew!
Fabulous experience! The food was delicious and our waiter, Isaac was superb! His service was above and beyond. We had the dates-some of the best we’ve ever eaten. The short ribs and the NY strip were excellently seasoned and prepared. My husband, who loves loves peanut butter, said the peanut butter mousse pie was the best he’s ever had. The beverages were just as good-wonderful cocktails and after dinner drinks. Dinner was so good, we can’t wait to try the brunch!
We enjoyed our experience, I am pleased. We were serviced quickly- there was so excessive wait to be seated nor was there an excessive wait after ordering to get our food. The servers were super nice and attentive. I liked my dish, everything was cooked well. We had to try their beignets which we didn’t really enjoy but this was already expressed to the restaurant. Everything we had was delish.
Oh, please try their Mac and cheese - it wasn’t apart of my order but one of us ordered it and it was really tasty.
I loved the drinks and apps. The food was delicious but could have used a little more seasoning. Mario our waiter was very attentive and made great recommendations
Our server Isaac was great! He recommended the specials and they were absolutely delicious! The guava Rickey was refreshing and the peach and burrata farmbread was especially tasty! I also really enjoyed the Prosecco Farmstand Peach Salad. Those along with the classic grilled cheese and tomato soup made for an excellent meatless meal!
This was my second visit and this time I knew to make reservations in advance because Sunday brunch can be pretty busy. My girlfriends were happy to enjoy some mimosas and bacon wrapped dates to start.
My Bleu cheese and bacon burger was pretty decent. I definitely prefer a thin patty like they had, so that was great. But both my friend and I agree that they could’ve been a bit more generous with those toppings as the edges were quite naked. However, their fries were great!
I also took home two take and bake chocolate chip cookies. I thought it was odd they didn’t put instructions in the bag. So I just set my oven to 350 and kept and eye on them. In the end they took maybe 18 minutes?? They weren’t the best cookies I’ve had in this area, but I can’t say no to a fresh out of the oven cookie.
Our server was great. Very helpful answering all my crazy menu questions.

Interesting menu, and lots of yummy choices. We started with fried green tomatoes which were yummy (be careful, dairy in coating and sauces). I had the lentil and pork stew which was delicious and presented nicely. The stew was topped with egg and avocado which complimented the flavors well. It was served with a crisp thick slice of toast and a great side salad that had grapes, dates, avocado, almond slices, grape tomatoes, and a fabulous champagne vinaigrette that was garlicky and delicious. I would have been happy just with that fab side salad! My husband and daughter had the fried chicken which they really liked which was served with an awesome buttermilk biscuit, yummy mashed potatoes, and unfortunately very mediocre and bland collard greens. Her friend had chicken bucatini which had a delicious creamy sauce and thick homemade pasta. I had a bourbon smash which was done well and my husband had a bourbon mule which he liked. The wait service was attentive and the manager came over to check on us even on a busy night. The atmosphere is inviting with interesting architecture/ interior design, warm colors, and lovely light fixtures. We sat on the balcony which was warm and inviting. I appreciated the acrylic dividers between the booths. I'd definitely go back to try other items on the menu.
I have enjoyed coming here for many months since we moved closer. I have some go-to drinks and food options, but enjoy exploring when they change the menu- there’s always something delicious!
I recently got their help catering a birthday party at the last minute. They were super helpful and made everything so easy.
Their atmosphere only gets four stars because the outdoor seating can get noisy from cars for those seats close to the front door. They’ve done well with the outdoor area generally and the interior is a welcoming and classy space.
Isaac was a great host! He was very knowledgeable and had great recommendations. He had great enthusiasm for his job!
We arrived mid day to pass the time waiting for relatives having a medical appointment across the street. We started with hot tea and chicken noodle soup on a cold day. Both were excellent, the soup home made. We needed to wait longer so we then ordered hot crab and artichoke appetizer with hot bread, and I had a bloody Mary. By the time I finished the drink our relatives came across to join us. Now the 4 of us ordered fish and chips, Caesar salad and chicken salad. All were excellent. It's a beautiful place and the staff are all very friendly. They offer 3 different ways of having Thanksgiving dinner‐ eating in or ordering pickup. We will definitely go back to this place and recommend it to others.
