The BYO scene is extremely vibrant now in the Montgomery County, MD. Some of my favorites are Blacks, Melina, Julii, and Q by Peter Chiang. All are extremely accommodating and let us do our own wine service. The typical fee is $25 per bottle.
Does anyone else have recommendations for this area? I’d love to hear them.
I think Laperaux in Germantown allows BYO. I asked him if he’d let me host my wine group there and it was an enthusiastic yes. I know Il Pizzico doesn’t as don’t many of the Italian restaurants. I will ask at Grilled Oyster next time I’m there. I think they might.
And we went to The Grilled Oyster Company tonight and they do allow BYO and charge $25 per bottle
This is excellent news; thank you! MoCo’s liquor laws are so arcane that I did not even consider that there were spots that offer corkage.
