From what I heard, Jug Bridge had gone out of business and reopened
under a new management. However, I'm not sure if it's still open. I had
crabs once there. Wasn't impressed too much.

Many Fredericktonian seem to believe that crabcake of Dutch's Daughter
is the best in town. However, I wasn't impressed there, either. Maybe, it's
just that I'm not so much into crabs... 8-)
The restaurants in/around Frederick where I occasionally go include:
Hana -- A family-run Korean restaurant on Patrick Street (in the complex
behind the court house).
La Paz -- Mexican. OK quality for a reasonable price. Behind the parking
desk on Church Street, but easier to get there from North Market
Street.
DiFrancesco's -- Italian. A nice atmosphere. Lunch time antipasto bar
(weekday only) is pretty good. Lobster on Friday is popular,
too. On North Market Street.
Tauraso's -- Seems to be regarded as a "Yuppie" Italian place. Food is
OK, but maybe a little too pretentious for the actual quality.
Mealy's -- On the main street of New Market (10 min to the east from
Frederick). Very cozy atmosphere. Sunday brunch is a good deal.
Little Far East -- Chinese. No MSG. Tofu and vegetable soup is pretty good.
Cafe Kyoko -- Japanese. Popular among non-Japanese in Frederick (whatever
it means ... 8-)). BTW, I know that there is another Japanese
restaurant called House of Kobe in Hagerstown although I haven't
tried that, yet.
Honestly, I prefer to drive down to Rockville or further to enjoy dinner.
