1. Surf and Turf at Dutch’s Daughter

If you live in Frederick, you have almost certainly either dined at, or heard of, Dutch’s Daughter.

Needless to say, from my personal experience, everything I’ve eaten there is so decadent and worthy of a special occasion!

2. Madrones Will Make It For You

Madrones is a relatively newer restaurant in Frederick, but it has definitely made a name for itself.

I noticed on their menu that they don’t have an official “surf and turf” entree, but I spoke with an employee at Madrones who informed me that they are happy to create a surf and turf option if requested.

3. Surf and Turf at The Main Cup

This Middletown restaurant is one of Pam’s and my faves for lunch dates with friends!

First, it has a great atmosphere.

Second, the service is great!

And third, the food is delicious!

One of our lunch date friends so happened to have eaten The Main Cup’s “Mini Surf and Turf” (2 mini cheesburgers paired with 2 mini crabcake sandwiches served with fries) and loved it!

4. Surf and Turf at Morgan’s American Grill

Located in New Market, this restaurant is a bit unassuming from the outside, but don’t let that fool you.

The food is great, and so is the ambiance!

5. The Red Horse Seafood and Steakhouse

Now THIS restaurant is a Frederick staple!

I remember, as a young child, taking “country drives” with my family from College Park, Maryland through Frederick.

My sister, brothers and I loved spotting the big red horse outside of this restaurant.

In addition, we had a few family special occasion dinners there.

Then, as an adult, once I moved to Frederick, dining at The Red Horse did not disappoint!

6. The Tasting Room

You can find this restaurant in the heart of downtown Frederick.

I have ONLY heard amazing things about this place, and the pictures on their website and Facebook page add more to the hype!

Frederick County is a big place, so if you have any recommendations for YOUR fave surf and turf that I haven’t mentioned, please let us know in the comments!
