We report temperature dependent ac susceptibility ($\chi$) measurements on a high quality single crystal of Tb$_2$PdSi$_3$, crystallizing in a AlB$_2$-derived hexagonal structure. This compound is found to exhibit features attributable to quasi-low-dimensional magnetism at high temperatures and {\it anisotropic} spin-glass-like behavior at low temperatures ($<$ 10 K) with an unusually large frequency dependence of peak temperature in ac $\chi$(T). This compound thus presents a novel situation in {\it metallic magnetism}, considering that the former phenomenon is normally encountered only among insulators, whereas the anisotropic spin-glass-like behavior, to our knowledge, has not been known in stoichiometric intermetallic compounds.
