“Food and service was excellent. Halibut with lump crab meat was outstanding and the drinks were excellent as well. Helping celebrate our 59th anniversary, the host provided an excellent dessert as well.”
“If you are in Annapolis be sure to visit Leo. Sit at the bar, order a old school cocktail from Sam, and be sure to ask Ben about bottles from local distilleries. Excellent food, great drinks, and outstanding people.”
“We drove from several counties away to spend our wedding anniversary at this fabulous restaurant. Everything was absolutely delicious. We had Oysters Rockefeller , sautéed spinach, baked potato, and filet mignon. Mine was Oscar style. Had a surprise brownie sundae too. Perfect!”
“Delicious! Portion sizes are very generous. We ordered biscuits and wings appetizers, very good. Biscuits were enormous and the pepper jelly paired well with the butter. I got the sampler plate, easily enough for two people. The brisket, pulled pork and sausage were my favorite parts. My date ordered a burger, he devoured it. We also got Cajun fries, brussel sprouts, and cole slaw for sides. The cole slaw was bland and boring, do not recommend. The brussel sprouts were over cooked in my opinion, but the goat cheese on top was good. The cajun fries did not have a lot of seasoning, but they were delicious lol, can't go wrong with a crowd favorite. Over all good place to eat. Service was excellent, our server was very attentive.”
“I hosted a board of directors meeting here and it was amazing. The second floor space was more than enough for our group of 25. The atmosphere was relaxing and food was delicious. We enjoyed getting to know the staff members and they did a great job taking care of us. If you are looking for a space to host a private event, I highly recommend.”

We always have really good meals here, but the dinner last evening was outstanding in every way. Thank you to the sommelier, chef, kitchen staff, and servers who made for such an enjoyable evening.”

“Wow, just wow! Our experience at Light House Bistro in Annapolis was nothing short of extraordinary! We stumbled upon this gem for breakfast and were blown away by what we found.From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warmth and hospitality that made us feel right at home. Our server went above and beyond to ensure we had a fantastic dining experience.And let's talk about the food—oh my goodness, it was out of this world! Each dish was a flavor explosion that left us craving more. But what really stole the show was the open kitchen concept! Watching the chefs work their magic right before our eyes added an extra layer of excitement to our meal.The ambiance was simply amazing, and the vibe was so chill—it was like being transported to a bluesy paradise. Light House Bistro has definitely earned a top spot on our list of favorite breakfast spots in Annapolis!”
“THIS PLACE... PANALO ? The food ? ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS ? Every dishes we tried was bursting with flavor and cooked to perfection. Each bite was a delight, and the presentation just blew us away. I can’t say enough good things about the service at this restaurant. The staff is incredibly accommodating for minor changes and goes the extra mile to ensure guests are happy. Our server (Charnita) was gracious and accommodating, attentive and polite ,ensuring every aspect of our dining experience was perfect.? The cozy atmosphere, soft lighting, and elegant decor create the perfect setting for any special occasion. The ambiance of this restaurant is simply fantastic!?❤️? ? Don’t miss out on trying their KARE-Kare mga Pare and Spicy Bicol Express mga Mare”
“Really outstanding food! Appetizer of mozzarella with pesto and a bit of eggplant hiding under it. We had the spotted hog pizza with various pork products on it. I'm not sure what exactly made it taste so good, but it did. Based on reviews, I made sure we had room for dessert and it did not disappoint. Mine was the bread pudding - which the reviews said we should get. It was a delicious comfort dessert. Some might find it too sweet. He had the fruit crumble. It was supposed to be apple, but it tasted more tart like rhubarb so we were glad he'd also got a scoop of ice cream.”
“A home of the $1 oyster. What more do you need to say? Well, I'll add that the beer is cold service is friendly. The location is unbeatable. Oyster Bar has a great airiness about it.”
“Our waitress was wonderful. I wasn't asked if we wanted a booth which we would have preferred, and was set in the middle of the floor. 5 people one small table doesn't add up”

“Kelsey was lovely and treated my dear Auntie with care and respect (it’s her birthday). Auntie says, “she was outstanding”. The rockfish special, crab cake sandwich and flounder sandwich were all superb.”
“Ordered 2 pounds of the most tender delicious pork pull As a contribution to a party, where everyone was bringing something… Rave reviews all around! It was easy to order and pleasant to deal with associate who took my order.”

“So happy that SOB is back and better than ever. The oysters are hands down the best in town. Lobster was great, but my favorites are still the octopus and smoked fish dip- waited 2 years and it was worth it. Best staff, great vibe, best restaurant in Annapolis.”

“Just did dessert and drinks. Portions sizes are huge! Perfect for sharing. Saw people's plates and their dinner sizes are huge as well. Great service as well. Will try again.”

“Great coffee and baristas, but sitting as a family is a challenge.Kid-friendliness: Not that it isn't kid friendly, not much sitting space to sit as a family.”

“I usually go to happy hour for the ahi tuna appetizer and fried green tomatoes. I've also been here for the live music which occurs around 8 pm. It's always fun and entertaining!If you're looking for a quiet place to have a conversation, this isn't it. Be prepared for hustle and bustle, great service and yummy food.Vegetarian options: Fried green tomatoes are usually my go-to choice. I also like the grilled romaine and the Caesar salad. The veggie flatbread I only ordered once. It wasn't terrible, and I might order it again sometime, but it doesn't come close to the fried green tomatoes.”
“A bit unique among the various OPHs I have visited. Sodas are bottled as opposed to fountain and the 2x4 (which I was really looking forward to) is not on the menu.”
“We held our daughter’s Welcome Party before her wedding. I can’t recommend a better place for a gathering. Anthony and staff knocked it out of the park with custom craft cocktails individually chosen for the bride and groom. Guests complimented that they were the best cocktails they have had- especially the Aviation. They also created a chocolate rimmed mint flavored martini. We started working with Anthony several months before the event and I knew that we were in extremely capable hands. He took ownership of the event and suggested appropriate appetizers and desserts for the crowd. His enthusiasm for crafting the perfect event was much appreciated.He also catered a brunch for the bride and bridesmaids the next morning that was so beautiful and appealing. It was such a great weekend.”
“Luna Blu never fails to provide a great meal! My husband and I eat there as often as we can because we always walk away with a full and happy belly. The saffron mussel's appetizer is, hands down, one of the best we have ever eaten. We ask for a spoon and extra bread, so no sauce is ever wasted. They have a great variety of items on their menu too. They will even substitute spinach for the pasta if you are watching your carbs. Check them out. You will not be disappointed.”

“This was my first time timing despite living in Annapolis for years. We never went because of negative reviews we had heard from a family member. I am glad we gave it a try because it was an amazing dinner date night. The ambiance / decor is beautiful, tables aren’t too close together, we were very comfortable sitting by a window. Our server was incredibly attentive and I even complimented him at the end of the night for his great service! As for the food we literally ate ever single bite - we started with bread service then apps we ordered the buffalo fried oyster - they were amazing. Dinner I ordered crabcakes and my husband ordered a lobster special. See my pictures for how beautiful the presentation was and it was delicious!!! Overall A+ date night and I would return!!”
“Food was very tasteful (breakfast quesadilla) Drinks were delicious (Bacon Bloody Mary & sunrise mimosa) Speedy service with great customer service!Parking: Parking garage is best option.Kid-friendliness: Bar seating as well as a separate dinning areaOut side seating available”
“Preserve is a great spot and they focus on local and responsible whenever possible !people who are vegetarian or vegan. They have an amazing salad called the harvest salad that u got and can do vegan and vegetarian on some dishes. Fresh and awesome!??Christina out server was so friendly and had great recommendation for me being vegan. ?”
“Hard to not rate 5 stars but I had one huge issue with one meal that has me torn.Came with a party of 10 for a birthday dinner. This place is simply gorgeous. Loved everything about the decor and set up.For the most part the food was very good. Everyone liked their food.The cream of crab soup was outstanding.The house vinaigrette was also a hit.I ordered the gnocchi and cheese with crabmeatand it was not flavorful enough and a bit salty. It also wasn’t a really big portion unlike other dishes.The chicken Chesapeake and chicken Parmesan was delicious according to others in my party. The spaghetti came with a huge meatball that my daughter really enjoyed.The birthday desert was so cute and amazing to see. It came with a variety of sundaes and treats. Large enough for our party to share.Our service was outstanding and we all really loved our waitress. We appreciate her attentiveness to our large party.My biggest complaint is the tomahawk steak. My husband loves to order these at times when we go out and he was very disappointed in this one. They claimed to offer a 34oz steak but when it came out it clearly was not even close to that. We inquired and were told the weight included the BONE! The bone alone was about 16-20oz. For the cost of this steak they need to do better ($109). You also only get a side of some cooked bell peppers. (See attached picture). If the policy is that the weight includes the bone then it should be written on the menu or when ordered advise the customer. I definitely would not suggest ordering this steak if you are expecting to get your money worth.”
“I made reservations for Mother's Day & sister bday lunch. They staff did an excellent job with accommodations. Waitress was great and attentive even with my party size of 6 and the holiday crowd. I will def continue to patronage this location. I normally sit at the bar for lunch after errands :)”
“Absolutely fantastic everytime I come here. Paninis, philly cheese steaks, even baklava and rice pudding (if you're lucky). All of it top tier, there's a reason they're always busy. I'd come here every day if I could!”
“At 1st we thought the menu was rather limited, but everything was very good. I had the chopped salad with fish(rockfish on that day), another had the mahi mahi, and another halibut. We shared a flourless chocolate cake.”
“This is one of my favorite spots in Annapolis. The pizza is my favorite in town. Yes, the pizza. Great location not directly in the middle of the crowd of Annapolis. Parking isn’t great especially now that you have to pay for everything in the area. Very cute inside.”
“If you have a meal at this Maggianos, please ask if Ian is working. He is an absolute top notch server. He is professional, patient and accommodating, anticipating your needs before you ask! Ian is a jewel...oh, and the food there was outstanding!! Get the chicken with capers and lemon-butter sauce. Delish!”
“If the line at the time we were leaving is any indication, Acqua al 2 is no longer a hidden gem! We've been twice, and both times have been outstanding. Always order the burrata starter. Entrees are everything from sauced preparations to understated and herb-rubbed. You cannot go wrong!”
“Place is my favorite in all of Annapolis. Great food, great pizzas, great drinks, wide selection of beers. Best yet, the vibe is low key and awesome. Nothing pretentious here. Just awesome food and people.”
“Outstanding !!! Fresh, and Taste Absolutely Wonderful !!! Very professional Staff The Staff is Fantastic Fantastic Customer Service Great Ambiance Clean and neat Location Thank you We will return”

“My husband and I had a lovely one night stay at the Maryland Inn. We checked in at the Calvert House and the staff was very welcoming and helpful with all our questions. We decided to have our car valeted and Carson was so accommodating and friendly. He took care of our bags while we went to dinner and after returning to check in then gave us a ride on the trolley to our hotel. Our room was very comfortable especially the bed. We had a corner room and it was spacious with several windows. We love the old colonial details which makes the experience special. As with any older buildings, the bathroom is small with limited space for things. The shower was nice with shampoo and soap. The water stayed warm but the pressure was weak. Our room had a small refrigerator and coffee maker. Large tv. Nice size closet with iron. Another big plus is the location. Walking distance to shopping, restaurants, and sightseeing. We definitely recommend this hotel. Just realize that with older buildings there are some limitations.”
“This McDonald's is consistent on quality and they keep the line moving fast in the morning during rush hour. My only issue is the ice coffee is often not made to specifications. For example, I like light sugar and it's often anything but light. Other than that though, it's good.”
“Very clean McDonald's with exceptional service! The manager there in the evening was incredible! We had some issues with an online order that he helped us with! Wonderful!! Thank you, we'll be back!Kid-friendliness: Very clean and spacious. Lots of areas for kids to sit and walk around”
“This one used to be better looking. It's got that look like it's a grown adult.. stuff used to be better. It used to have pictures of dolphins and everything. Not anymore. We loved to stop here on our way to the beach because it looked beachy.”
“It was my grandmother and I’s first time here and we let the staff know. They were so incredibly welcoming and even added a bonus welcome dessert… the peach cobbler! Thank you to Gina the host and the rest of the staff who assisted in making our first time a great one. Not to mention the food was great. I normally have trouble finishing BBQ food but ate everything all up.”

“I had the pleasure of visiting a family-owned restaurant in Annapolis yesterday and I must say, it exceeded all my expectations. The customer service was impeccable and the staff, including a young boy who is also learning, were incredibly kind and welcoming. I was thoroughly impressed with the authenticity and quality of the Vietnamese cuisine - it was simply delicious. Even though they recently opened their doors, I have no doubt that they will thrive in the future. If you're looking for a wonderful dining experience, I highly recommend giving this place a try. I know I'll be back!”
“Blue Crab Cupcakes doesn’t only make amazing cupcakes, they do beautiful wedding cakes! Our wedding cake was the most beautiful and delicious cake we’ve ever had. The service was amazing, they let you taste the various flavors and we were able to have 2 flavors in our cake (chocolate fudge and funfetti). They delivered our cake straight to our venue in Annapolis. I can’t recommend them enough!”
“A home of the $1 oyster. What more do you need to say? Well, I'll add that the beer is cold service is friendly. The location is unbeatable. Oyster Bar has a great airiness about it.”
“I asked the Maestro for an Italian sub so good that it would restore my faith in humanity. He tried. Would have been great on a hard roll. Thankfully there's still DiPasquale's, Mangilardo's and Litteri's to get my fix if I feel like driving...”
“Delicious Ice Cream and fantastic service. Really everything you want in an ice cream company. We had: Penguin Tracks, Heath Bar, Mint Oreo, and lemon Strawberry. All were super flavorful! Yum!!!”
“Excellent Cafe with honest staff with integrity. I was over charged for a Chai latte which I did not know. Came back in the next day and was given my order for free as the lady told me she accidentally over charged me yesterday. Lovely lovely place, staff and excellent coffee.”
“We walked in late last night because I noticed they had gluten free (GF) and vegan pizza. The owner greeted us when we walked in and was very excited to make my pizza when he found out I was vegan/GF. He was proud of the level of care and compliance they adhere to when making allergy friendly options. He told us TropQ stands for “Ty’s Recipes Zero (0) Preservatives Quality.” The vegan cheese was outstanding - melted like a real cheese pizza! I will say that the thin GF crust was charred on the outside but soft on the inside, so each slice was a bit “floppy” when you picked it up. But it tasted very good. We will definitely be back!”
“My chicken tacos were little bit dry , but appreciate added onion and fresh radish. Beautiful food presentation for tacos. My husband burrito was delicious. It was one of the best I ever tried. Service is good. Like the drinks . Clean place . If you have a dog - there is a grooming next door .”

“Kilwins Annapolis helped me pull off a great last minute birthday surprise for my boyfriend. I called on Thursday and spoke with Kaileigh who could not have been more wonderful and accommodating. She was the real MVP of this last minute birthday surprise and I am forever grateful. The Buckeyes were delicious, the Peanut Butter cups need to be cut in quarters they are so big and rich, and the peanut butter and chocolate covered Oreos were heavenly. Thank you Kilwins Annapolis and Kaileigh for making my boyfriends birthday his best birthday ever.”
“Best Mexican Food and Pupuseria in the Annapolis Area. Maybe we’re biased being on this peninsula but everything we’ve had there is so dang good. You gotta be early to get pupusas though!”
“Really good. Only thing is I’ve noticed that there are often chunks of fruit (particularly bananas) in my smoothies, which means it not being blended thoroughly. I prefer to sip my smoothies instead of chewing them.”
“Such a great selection of macarons. The standout flavor award has to go to the passion fruit macarons. An absolute 10, with passion a fruit flavor that does a wild dance over your tastebuds.The macarons, the short breads the delicate pastries and almond croissants all delicious and baked to perfection.The staff are helpful and enthusiastic making a visit to the pastry shop a peak experience.Unfortunately the macarons were eaten Iong before I thought to take a photo.If you need a sweet ending or beginning to your day, be sure to make a stop at Sweet Hearts!The photos don't do justice to the array of delights on display.”
“Was introduced to this place a few years ago by a coworker. The food and atmosphere is always good. To me I think they have one of the best vegetable crab soups around. Prices are really good compared to other places.”
“I made reservations for Mother's Day & sister bday lunch. They staff did an excellent job with accommodations. Waitress was great and attentive even with my party size of 6 and the holiday crowd. I will def continue to patronage this location. I normally sit at the bar for lunch after errands :)”
“Great riverside view. Very nicely seasoned blue crabs. I would say we expected better of the Lump Crabcake Platter. The crabcakes were a bit small for the $50 price, especially when compared to the size at Chick and Ruth's Deli, and the sides were just okay. However, I did like how the crab cakes had the orange roe from the crabs, and the taste was excellent.Other than that, good service even though it's a very busy place. We were given a 30 min wait at around 3pm on a Sunday. However, we were seated within 15 min and were very pleased. It took us a bit for someone to come to our table initially, but after that, we were tended to frequently.”
“So happy that SOB is back and better than ever. The oysters are hands down the best in town. Lobster was great, but my favorites are still the octopus and smoked fish dip- waited 2 years and it was worth it. Best staff, great vibe, best restaurant in Annapolis.”

“Rutabaga is such a great spot for fresh and healthy food, smoothies, and snacks. You can't go wrong with a smoothie bowl, and the service is always fantastic!”
“The food is the best Mexican I've ever had down to the chips and salsa, margaritas, and steak fajitas/quesadillas. The steak is so tender and flavorful. I'm not a big chain restaurant fan, but this one exceeds my expectations! Go there!”
“Let me start off by saying that Riley is amazing! I admittedly went to Dunkin' 10 minutes prior to them closing and halfheartedly expected that they would not have any donuts left. I arrived and the floor was mopped, everything was sparkling and there were no donuts on the shelves. I was greeted by Riley and she asked me what she could help me with and I proceeded to tell her that I was hoping to get a donut for my son's birthday. Out of nowhere, she pulls out his favorite donut...a pink frosted donut with sprinkles. Her customer service was amazing and tomorrow she will have made my son very happy as he starts his first day as a four-year-old! ?”
“Its a Burger King. Sometimes I've had issues ordering through the app. A few times they have posters showing specials that they do not have. I've been treated with respect at the counter every time I've ordered.”
“Awesome place. Terrific wine selection. Wine expert is awesome. Ambiance is spacious, clean with cool statues. I really felt like I was in a little Italy restaurant or actually in Italy. Their pastas are fantastic as is their pizza's. I have really been trying to find an authentic New York style pizza because the places I live near in Crofton are missing mark. Italian Market fell off my radar a few years back after we had some less than great experiences. But, they are first class, being able to enjoy a Chianti while you wait in a great atmosphere is worth the wait. Take the time and visit you will not be disappointed”
“We love eating at Chick-fil-A. Food and service are always fantastic. We were there during a bit of a lunch rush, and the food came out quick and with no problems. Always recommend stopping at Chick-fil-A for a quick quality meal.”
“Or as my husband says, that is why you go to Popeyes. Always, reliably the same. Even though he is not a meat eater, he enjoys their sides, and continues to return.”
“I’m very disappointed that they don’t participate with any delivery service and their hours are only 10-3. However, the food is very good and the cost is reasonable.”
“I’m giving you a five star because everyone that works there is absolutely amazing but I really think you need to reassess your online ordering as well as your Uber and your DoorDash. You cannot accept 40 orders at opening and expect your employees and your customers and your delivery drivers to be happy I understand you want the business but having to wait 19 minutes today while seven people wait and eight people are in line and nobody is on the register. I was a chef for 22 years. Give your employees the opportunity to turn off online orders and let them get caught up have someone at the register and also have a manager overseeing them. You have five people that don’t know what they’re doing today not one person on register and nobody’s checking the online orders.I would like to add that after waiting 18 minutes I canceled my order and walked out. I watched three other people do the same thing I had a customer that came in for a pick up time at 11:33 leave at 11:48. I know you got the management staff. Where were they today?”
“This restaurant was recommended by a friend. There are several locations in and near Annapolis. I have visited both locations in Annapolis and have only good things to say...he food was delicious, atmosphere was authentic and friendly....filled with locals. Take out and dine in are available.”
“Best employee??? ANGEL! Anytime I've gotten a coffee and it's not right he is quick to fix it. Angel is very professional, highly motivated, and goes above and beyond the other employees. I've been meaning to write a review about him for the past year. Needless to say, yesterday I had a lady who just seemed irritated and wouldn't even say good morning, nothing. Today, Angel was at the drive thru and all was good. Regardless of where life takes him I know he will succeed! Thanks for making my coffee perfect every time and starting my day off right. :)”
“This Dunkin’ was willing to correct my order that was made incorrectly at another location I had stopped at on my way to work (didn’t realize until I had pulled back into the road to continue my commute). They were helpful and accommodating and now I drive out of my way to stop here instead of Edgewater. Thanks for making my day!”
“I'm so glad Chick-fil-A is here. The preparation of the food and the service represents staff trained highly which equals them skilled and professional. HERE Food is the answer to any and all need or desire to curve hungerParking: Available Completely And Assessable”
“Ordered two takeout lobster rolls for a day on the water in Annapolis. Ordered online an hour ahead and the process was seamless, feom order placement to pickup from 2 extremely friendly and efficient associates. Beyond happy. Thank you.”

“Place looks brand new, service was great, to-go food was well-prepared but for kids' grilled cheese sandwiches, they used rye bread instead of white. I laughed, kids did not.”

“Friendly staff, largest latte —24 oz. — available anywhere in Annapolis, easy parking, and nice breakfast sandwich choices. When my friend asked for a beverage not on the menu, they were happy to make one, and then in their own time worked to make it better for the next time my friend asked for it.”
“Really enjoyed our coffee and the welcoming and friendly atmosphere. I would strongly recommend Bitty and Beau’s coffee if you are in Annapolis. Great job and thanks for the excellent coffee and service.”
“I recently discovered this bakery via Instagram a few weeks ago. I originally visited the Edgewater location but decided to visit the Annapolis Port location this morning. I was not disappointed. While small this place is very efficiently run. Staff was all very friendly and pleasant, the pastries are absolutely amazing, the coffee was delicious, the breakfast sandwich was delicious and this was an overall Top 10 bakery experience. I highly recommend checking this bakery out. It’s a little hidden gem in the port of Annapolis right on the water in a marina. There’s a few tables inside more tables and benches outside. It’s a perfect treat.”
“Awesome place to grab an ice cream. Quiet neighborhood, plenty of parking and excellent service. You can sample flavors then pick your favorite. “Always” a favorite.”
“I love the outdoors section here. The chandelier and the garden ornaments creates such a magical atmosphere to just relax and bird watch. I got the Jasmine "pearl" green tea but the leaves were not pearled.”
“Due to some unforseen health issues, I have to drastically change my diet. Nothing spicy, no fried foods, no dairy, no citrus, no caffeine, no chocolate. This has been really difficult.This place was AMAZING. I got the quinoa bowl, a side of Brussel sprouts, multi grain toast and 2 sides of ham. The person who took my order consulted with the chef for each item. I did initially have a pork patty with the ham but it was a little spicy. However, I didn't tell the cashier (totally my fault). The cashier came over and checked on me and was able to swap the patty for more ham.I literally but the Brussel sprouts and tore the ham up in the bowl. DELICIOUS. And best of all, everything was safe to eat.I've been having a difficult time going out because most places can't accommodate, and I get it. But it's such a joy, to find good food within these accommodations.Will definitely be back!”
“You might drive right by this small shop without realizing that a foodie treasure lies within. FYI they also do Thai food which I have not triedI have been eating donuts for over 50 years and no I don't look like I swallowed a balloon. Carlson's donuts are the best.Texture, taste and toppings are perfect.Don't buy too many because they will give you free donut holes as a lagniappe (bonus for anyone not from New Orleans) and you will be tempted to eat them. Better to share them with friends or strangers so you can live long enough to return to Carlson's and enjoy these sumptuous donuts year after year.”
“We are early risers, so it’s great to have a spot that opens at 6:00 am! We were pleasantly surprised at how amazing the breakfast sandwich tasted. A bonus perk that it’s not overly expensive. I also got the iced peach matcha latte, which had a nice flavor.”
“Very cool little hole in the wall. The bartender was attentive and professional and made an excellent dirty martini. She took the extra step to chill the glass with ice before pouring. The atmosphere is perfect. Highly recommended.”
“Awesome hidden gem, great food with varied menu of Latin dishes, some common ones like ropa vieja but then some rare ones like Honduran baleados. Super friendly service.”
“I went yesterday and had a medium nitro brew and a rise up burrito. The nitro was probably the best I've had. The Burrito was good but I would not say great. The salsas were good too.”
“One of the best crepe places I have ever had. Highly recommend the bacon, egg, cheese and add avocado if you are looking for a savory breakfast crepe. Mozz crepe also was amazing.”
“I enjoyed my meal, staff accepting this bunch of old men getting together to talk.Took home crab cake sandwich for my wife, I got 5 thank yous from her cause it was so good and large.Parking: In plaza in front of plaza”
“We went on a Saturday afternoon and there was plenty of paid street parking. The arcade was pretty small. It was busy and crowded but not overly crowded. We didn't have to wait long to play any games. It was fun playing all the old games like mortal combat. They had some other games like basketball. There was a bar and I can see folks spending a few hours there drinking but without drinking, we were ready to go in about a hour. Overall it was a fun and different experience.”
“We loved it so much we went twice while we were in town! Both times the service was wonderful l. They were so welcoming and friendly. We had a variety of drinks for our group and everyone enjoyed their selections.”
“These are fantastically yummy burgers. I wasn't super hungry and got sliders for my meal and they weren't overcooked!! It was cooked the way a burger should be, perfectly done with lots of juiciness still in the burger. Highly recommend!!! The fries were also amazing. Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside.”
“This was my first time timing despite living in Annapolis for years. We never went because of negative reviews we had heard from a family member. I am glad we gave it a try because it was an amazing dinner date night. The ambiance / decor is beautiful, tables aren’t too close together, we were very comfortable sitting by a window. Our server was incredibly attentive and I even complimented him at the end of the night for his great service! As for the food we literally ate ever single bite - we started with bread service then apps we ordered the buffalo fried oyster - they were amazing. Dinner I ordered crabcakes and my husband ordered a lobster special. See my pictures for how beautiful the presentation was and it was delicious!!! Overall A+ date night and I would return!!”
“Preserve is a great spot and they focus on local and responsible whenever possible !people who are vegetarian or vegan. They have an amazing salad called the harvest salad that u got and can do vegan and vegetarian on some dishes. Fresh and awesome!??Christina out server was so friendly and had great recommendation for me being vegan. ?”
“If you have a meal at this Maggianos, please ask if Ian is working. He is an absolute top notch server. He is professional, patient and accommodating, anticipating your needs before you ask! Ian is a jewel...oh, and the food there was outstanding!! Get the chicken with capers and lemon-butter sauce. Delish!”
“It was really great. My Family & I had a great time celebrating our Son/Brother/ Nephew/Cousin Birthday.. Happy Birthday To A Special Young Man ( Jeremiah. Enjoy ???????”
“Friendly and generous. Great local vibe and good authentic fare. Still fabulous.My safe bet when dining solo or in a group.Features: Busy Saturday night, good to see a family owned and run business still going strong”
“If the line at the time we were leaving is any indication, Acqua al 2 is no longer a hidden gem! We've been twice, and both times have been outstanding. Always order the burrata starter. Entrees are everything from sauced preparations to understated and herb-rubbed. You cannot go wrong!”
“We had a lot of fun here. The whole family came with our 3 dogs and had a blast. The selection of beers is particularly interesting and delicious. So was the food!The like for the bathroom got a bit much at times but it makes for a great way to converse with strangers haha.”
“Review Update:We have seen a major improvement in the service and food since my last review and they are back to being the best sushi spot in Annapolis. Highly recommend!We’ve been going here for years and have told all of our neighbors it’s the best sushi in Annapolis. Unfortunately, the last 2 times we ordered we’ve been really disappointed with the quality of the fish. The yellow tail has been chewy and overly fishy, the tuna was such a deep red it looked like it had been dyed and had no flavor, and the scallop was just a mess of mush and again overly fishy. I shared out disappointment with a mgr who said she was going to call me back and never did. Not sure we’ll be back, such a bummer.”
“Perfection.This place is an easy recommendation.The quality of food for the price is very reasonable.The service is top tier. Never had to wait long for our waiter.The space could be a little tight depending on which table you are placed at.This does not change the fact that this is easily one of my new top restaurants to go to.”
“My wife and I are Sushi lovers! As we were looking for a place to eat and not having reservations at our first stop, which was full, we walked on and came across Joss Sushi Bar. WHAT a GREAT find! From the street you see the main bar and not the full sushi bar or rest of restaurant, which is towards the back. Nice layout! We ordered edamame and 5 Shrimp tempura and not only were they large, they were cooked to perfection. We then ordered two rolls, a Tuna Avocado and a Spicy Tuna. Both rolls were EXCELLENT! All our food was VERY fresh and tasted great. We also ordered a nice hot Sake, recommended by our waitress, who was excellent and explained everything thoroughly. The Price, Food and Service was outstanding. Would highly recommend!”
“Fun spot. Food and drinks were great. The pictures of the interior on open table do not do it justice. We almost did not pick this place due to the sparse interior. FOR YOUR SAKE PLEASE CHANGE YOUR INTERIOR PICTURES! We had a great time in a cool spot. Noise level was a bit high, could put up a few acoustic panels to go help.”
“At 1st we thought the menu was rather limited, but everything was very good. I had the chopped salad with fish(rockfish on that day), another had the mahi mahi, and another halibut. We shared a flourless chocolate cake.”
“Hello, everything was excellent. Our waiter, Brian, was very professional, as well as humorous, and polite. The gentleman that made our hibachi did a terrific job preparing our food and entertaining us at the same time! The food and drinks were delicious, especially my lemonade, and chicken with shrimp hibachi, cooked right at are seats. We have been to this beautiful restaurant before, and God willing, we will be happy to go there again, thank you.Parking: I didn’t do the driving, but the parking lot was not crowded, or difficult to maneuver.Wheelchair accessibility: I sometimes use a Cain, wheelchair, or walker. The restaurant is reached either by climbing the stairs, or using a elevator, which I really appreciated.”
“This is one of my favorite spots in Annapolis. The pizza is my favorite in town. Yes, the pizza. Great location not directly in the middle of the crowd of Annapolis. Parking isn’t great especially now that you have to pay for everything in the area. Very cute inside.”
“I had a great experience and can't wait to come back to try more of the menu. The hibiscus mule was delicious, and the guac was clearly fresh made and really good. I sat at the bar for a while with some time to kill, so unfortunately I wasn't eating a full meal. It was mid-afternoon so I got to watch the bartender, who was lovely, juicing a bunch of fruits to use in the drinks. Love to see that! Service was fantastic, and the vibe is fun and cool. It's the perfect spot for a date, hang out at the bar for cocktails, or a meal with girlfriends. It's small and elevated fare, so no it's not the place for a huge group or giant portions.”
“Went for late lunch service is great , food tastes fresh , atmosphere is very pleasantVegetarian options: My partner is a vegetarian, lots of food options, he found out recently that he loves plantains,Kid-friendliness: Lots of space in dining room, staff very accommodatingWheelchair accessibility: No steps to enter building”
“A consistent treat.The only place in Annapolis I’ll get oysters anymore- always shucked to perfection.The tuna is basic in the best way- allows the quality of the fish to shine.The whipped goat cheese is what I would choose for my last meal’s dessert.Staff is always willing to let you try a few wines if youre in between selections.”
“Oh what a great time. Understand that discounts are given for members. Join. If you're a drinker, it's a good time. If you eat food, they won't disappoint.”
“Today, we dined at Chart House Prime in Annapolis, and the culinary experience was a delight. The food never disappoints, particularly the scallop and shrimp dish, which was impeccably prepared and truly enjoyable. A highlight of the meal was the chef's dessert—a cheesecake with cherries that might just be the best I've tasted in a very long time. However, the service was a letdown during this visit. It was painfully slow, which was unexpected and inconvenient, especially since it was Mother's Day. Even settling the bill became a hassle, and we had to approach the register ourselves after waiting too long for our waitress. Despite the service issues, the quality of the food keeps Chart House on my list of recommended dining spots.”
“Fantastic hot chicken joint. Order in person or on the app. Great customer service and some nice little sitting areas. Not too busy. A lot of people just come in to pick up and then take home. Caution-hot is actually really spicy”
“Food delicious. The waitress was friendly and helpful. This was my first visit and I was extremely impressed with the entire experience. I hope to return during the Summer.”
“I came with my parents and all three of us loved everything we ate! Appetizer was calamari that was seasoned and cooked to perfection (severed with marinara and aioli). The dip that came with the complimentary bread basket was one of the best I’ve ever had! For our mains, I had the Linguine Vongole, my mom had the Salmon Picata, and my dad had the Mediterranean Seafood Pasta with Rosè sauce (can also get Alfredo).My mom also had a vodka martini with blue cheese stuffed olives.Our waiter, Matt, was super friendly and helpful with the menu! We will absolutely be back!”
“Fabulous place!!! So so much fun! We were the first ones through the door and we had amazing time! The server was attentive, the restaurant was clean! So much fun!”
“I had the breakfast platter eggs, bacon, potatoes and hotcakes my husband had chipped beef gravy. Huge portions and delicious. Will definitely be back when in the area again”
“Went in on a recent Sunday at 3 pm when the restaurant wasn't busy. Tried 3 tacos, beef and chicken. Taco shells were soft and did not break except where you bite them. Generously stuffed with ingredients. Server was pleasantly not making lots of visits. Food was seasoned, but not super hot.”
“My husband and I had a lovely one night stay at the Maryland Inn. We checked in at the Calvert House and the staff was very welcoming and helpful with all our questions. We decided to have our car valeted and Carson was so accommodating and friendly. He took care of our bags while we went to dinner and after returning to check in then gave us a ride on the trolley to our hotel. Our room was very comfortable especially the bed. We had a corner room and it was spacious with several windows. We love the old colonial details which makes the experience special. As with any older buildings, the bathroom is small with limited space for things. The shower was nice with shampoo and soap. The water stayed warm but the pressure was weak. Our room had a small refrigerator and coffee maker. Large tv. Nice size closet with iron. Another big plus is the location. Walking distance to shopping, restaurants, and sightseeing. We definitely recommend this hotel. Just realize that with older buildings there are some limitations.”
“Have frequented this establishment for years and have never been disappointed! Food is fabulous - have tried the ribs, crab cake sandwich, pulled pork sandwich, crab pretzel, shrimp quesadillas, salads and desserts. All great! Staff & service are always top notch as well. If you haven’t tried them, hurry on over - you won’t regret it!Parking: The restaurant is in a shopping center with a very large parking lot.”
“Lunch was amazing. Server was on point, her name was Jenn. We had the steak and lobster special and the thunder from down under. Good service. Good food. Highly recommend.”
“Thanks, I had an awesome time. Pre birthday ? ?. Great food rib great, but the honey butter and cornbread is to die for and least not forget the collar greens. Nice place and the owners are great..”
“Incredible atmosphere, incredible beer, incredible burger.All these folks who left bad reviews are extremely ignorant and rude. Leaving a review within the first month or two of a highly anticipated second Rar location, because it’s “loud” or you had to wait 15 minutes to be seated, is ridiculous. Also even more ridiculous to judge their food when they just got things going and are working to get their footing with the menu and a new kitchen staff.”
“I can’t say enough good things about this location! Parking, same amazing food, and passionate staff.My husband loves Huevos Rancheros, best in town!Table side fresh guac is always a hit!Lastly, skinny girl margarita is worth the drive ??.”
“I have tried several of their juices from various popup events and they are delicious! The Bliss Out + Euna Youth Tonic are OUSTANDING. The owner is incredibly friendly + helpful. I can't wait to visit the shop in DTA!”
“Absolutely amazing food and service ! We came here by accident but we are extremely glad we did !!! The corn bread casserole and the fish tacos were amazing !!! Alec was amazing!! Thank you”
“Our first visit to CN even though we've visited Annapolis numerous times. It was a Saturday night and there were not any empty tables. Scallops and Lamb were the main courses- cooked to perfection. Service was great & we'll be certain to return.”
“My partner and I loved the ambiance and cocktails at dry 85. We were in town for a conference and so happy our server from Luna Blu sent us over here afterwards! The lavender fields, and guac it like it's hot were delightful! We wish we lived here in Annapolis to try all of the cocktails!”
“Artaviap2022, stop it with the black thing and stop using your race as a crutch for everything that goes wrong in your life, as I'm sure you do! Just like the majority of your race. Im sick of it. Everything is a black thing with blacks! I'm white, and I have had the same bad experiences that you've mentioned in many restaurants! I guess it's all the fault of people of color! Sounds ridiculous doesn't it? So does what you've written! You are what's wrong with the racial problems in this country! People like you, who refuse to let go of history that happened when neither one of us was alive, yet, you're constantly looking for reparations for something that no one alive is responsible for. Just list your complaint, and leave the race out of it! People like you make me sick! It's people like you that make me dislike blacks, as that word was mentioned in your post! People of color don't typically drag the fact that they are people of color into a conversation! However, blacks make sure to say they are black when complaining about the perceived injustices that have happened to them! Just say what you have to say, and leave the fact that you're black out of the conversation! If you didn't like Buddy's, then just list your complaints and leave your race out of it! You should contact Black Lives Matter about your issue! Oooooops, I forgot, they ran off with your money and are nowhere to be found now!”
“I had a great meal and even better wine.Vegetarian options: Several choices, & menu changes.Parking: Downtown Annapolis, sometimes you get lucky, if not parking garage is an option.Kid-friendliness: NoIt's a wine BarWheelchair accessibility: Yes”
“THIS PLACE... PANALO ? The food ? ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS ? Every dishes we tried was bursting with flavor and cooked to perfection. Each bite was a delight, and the presentation just blew us away. I can’t say enough good things about the service at this restaurant. The staff is incredibly accommodating for minor changes and goes the extra mile to ensure guests are happy. Our server (Charnita) was gracious and accommodating, attentive and polite ,ensuring every aspect of our dining experience was perfect.? The cozy atmosphere, soft lighting, and elegant decor create the perfect setting for any special occasion. The ambiance of this restaurant is simply fantastic!?❤️? ? Don’t miss out on trying their KARE-Kare mga Pare and Spicy Bicol Express mga Mare”
“Delicious dinner. We got there early so there was no line and the food came.out quickly. I got the drunken noodles and my wife got the pad Thai. She had a glass.of wine and me a beer and the bill was $60 with tip.”
“Great service and good food at a fair price...just got the newest menu items, deviled eggs...they are very good with a dash of old bay...Savannah is a competent, and professional server...the fish po' was very good and tasty...good value for the money...oct 04, cant miss with a cheeseburger smothered in mushrooms and onions...and Nats baseball...Paige is a very patient server...Dec.14...another perfectly cooked angus burger with onions,mushrooms, cheese and sweet potato fries...served by Taylor, who is competent, patient, and kind...thank you for a nice dinner...April 22, great food, served hot and quick and professionally by Faye...sports on TV, nice clean restaurant, friendly staff and customers...”
“Always a tasty and a fun meal from Joy Luck 4. Staff is nice and the kitchen is super fast and efficient. Never waiting more than a few mins to pick up my food order.”
“As a Director operations in one of the luxury hotels in Washington DC I am extremely focused on customer service and I genuinely believe that Caroline is an asset to your restaurant, please give her a good raise and take care of her because she is extremely Custemor focused, very smiley and proactive who was absolutely making sure that me and my friends were all taken care, because of Caroline’s hospitality I am going to recommend this restaurant to all my network in DC, also the food is also extremely delicious, the best thing about this restaurant is that they don’t play loud music so you can sit and chit chat, great atmosphere overall and surely a must visit.”
“First time. Ate some delicious biscuits and gravy. Biscuits were homemade and about as big as a small child. The missus had pineapple upside down cake pancakes. Three pancakes the size of hubcaps with homemade cinnamon butter. Yes, they had syrup packets that are probably going to take a few minutes off my life at some point but they tasted good with the pancakes and fit the breakfast diner vibe of the place.”
“The new owner has done wonderful things here. The food is excellent. The building is steeped in American History. It's easily my favorite place in all of Annapolis.Wheelchair accessibility: Many old buildings are not wheel chair friendly in the historic district. Obriens, however, has an easily accessible ramp at the side door.”
“The elotes locos are amazing. The torta milanesa took me right back to Mexico! Birria tacos were amazing. I ran out of room for the Alambre but I know it's going to be great. These guys are master chefs!”
“Needed a place for a breakfast meeting with co-worker. We met at Kitchen on West street in downtown Annapolis. We had yogurt parfait and crab cake eggs benedict. Both were very good- the crab cake was delicious - mostly lump crab not a lot of filler. Great way to start the day! Our server was Jada - delightful. Quick service - we'll be back.”
“Great spot in Annapolis that is just a little different. Drinks were top notch. Jake the bartender knows his spirits and makes great recommendations as well as drinks. Definitely try the Mai tai (it’s not your sugary punch version) and the NY sour. Cheeseburger was good. Staff was very friendly, and we will return!”
“The first time we went there was on Thursday late lunch, and everything was great. This time we went on a Monday evening... not so great. Hopefully, it was just the time of the week.”
“I had a 60th birthday brunch here for my husband and we absolutely loved it!!!! We had a party of about 30 persons and everyone had nothing but great things to say about the restaurant and food!!! The manager Ricky and his staff were the BEST, we will be going back again!!!!Kid-friendliness: I didn’t see many kids however we had a couple of kids in our party and the restaurant was very accommodating!!!!”
“Went early on Sunday. Only one other group was there. Had the meats and salad bar that included brunch items. Everything was good. Servers were quick in bringing the meats out. Salad bar items were fresh. We will return.”
“The food is the best Mexican I've ever had down to the chips and salsa, margaritas, and steak fajitas/quesadillas. The steak is so tender and flavorful. I'm not a big chain restaurant fan, but this one exceeds my expectations! Go there!”
“This evening could not have been any more enjoyable! The staff have done an incredible job! Lily and Jordan have made us feel very welcome! This will definitely be a forever spot for Us!!!Their Lobster rolls were fantastic!”
“Best sandwich shop & Deli in Annapolis. The sandwiches and creative combinations created by Bob are simply delicious. For years I have served my sailing guests sandwiches and treats from The Big Cheese. My guests always rave about the food and I have never been disappointed.”
“I was looking for a good Japanese/ sushi restaurant and this restaurant came up. I placed an order through Grubhub for chicken teriyaki and the sushi sampler. The chicken teriyaki was supposed to include white rice, but I got home, I noticed the rice was missing. After I called the restaurant back, they immediately apologized and offered to cover the price of the meal in the future. Three weeks later, I called the restaurant back to ask if I could order the meal and if it was still complimentary. The manager stated it was no problem and put my order in for pickup. I'm truly appreciative of everyone's generosity, and they now have a new customer with me.”
“Food was good, but when I ordered the fried avocado BLT... I didnt expect it to be spicy. After asking our waitress and then a manager, found out it was guacamole with jalapeño... NO Bueno!! I'm allergic”
“My girlfriend and I went for dinner on a whim and couldn't of been happier. After a bit of a mix up we had Kylee as our server and I genuinely couldn't recommend anyone better! Great personality, perfect service, and all in all a phenomenal person. If you ever have the pleasure of them as your waitress you are in for a fantastic evening! Will most definitely be going back hopefully having them as our server!Dietary restrictions: Melting Pot had a plethora of GF options on the menu.”
“The staff at breakfast make this a good place. The new menu is good. You just need to keep in mind this is a hotel so prices are what they are. If you have Marriott status you can’t beat the price. Special shout out to Rony Combs.”
“Love CPK when I'm in Annapolis. Went last Wednesday night and it was VERY Disappointing. I usually get the Waldorf chicken salad with Shrimp on top. I explained to the waitress , who must of been new, what I wanted. My sister and I get the Full Waldorf salad and split it. Two dishes come with the salad, one for each of us. This girl brought the salad and 2 very small plates. Never offered us any cracked pepper and never asked us if we wanted refills for our drinks, we had to ask. The salad had too much dressing so that it was drenched, the salad was wilting. Also they used the wrong dressing and the ingredients were few. We saw that she was shorthanded because she seemed rattled. Not very good all around. Hope this doesn't happen again. I sometimes take 3-4 people their at a time and don't want a repeat of this.”
“What a great evening! Had tickets to a show next door and, like many of the show-goers, we decided to make an evening of it by having dinner there, too. Flat rate fee for easy parking at a garage that couldn't be closer. Also discount on on drinks at the show, the meal, and the food was AMAZING! Bourbonzola is my new favorite word...the brussel sprouts, fried brie, prime rib, and salted caramel cake were spectacular. Our server was great - so friendly and helped us make great dinner choices. Definitely looking forward to my next visit!”
“Great historic restaurant in downtown Annapolis, in an amazing location right by the water. The menu has a good combo of seafood and non seafood options all reasonably priced. The food was delicious and the service was very good. The only caveat is that the restaurant closes earlier than what is posted based on demand of how crowded the streets are at the time, and because the restaurant is so old that there was a roach on our table. Otherwise the atmosphere inside is very cozy with a fireplace and bar making it perfect for date or group outings. Very solid choice especially for its location right at the Annapolis waterfrontWheelchair accessibility: Half the upstairs tavern appears accessible only by stairs”
“Simply outstanding food and service!!! Best experience in Annapolis..yes all of Annapolis. From the minute we set down Markia was the sweetest who went above and beyond to make sure my dad and step-mom whom were visiting had the best experience in Annapolis and at Obriens. The drinks and food were superb...the Chilean sea bass...wow... incredible. Must visit and see Markia! Such a gem! Thank you for the best customer experience. Such a great model for other restaurants.”
“The food was Great!! Albeit, very expensive. The staff was amazing and seemed to enjoy their job. My granddaughter had a grand time at her birthday party. I would highly recommend it. But bring plenty of money.”
“I had the most incredible pizza here, it was truly surprising as to how fresh and delicious everything was. I had a slice of Caprese Pizza and Grandma's pizza and they were amazing! The side Greek salad was also fresh and delicious. The pizza crust was crisp, the toppings were fresh, and nothing was too greasy. Perfection ?”
“Great vibe and food was great. Menu is small and pricey. Service was excellent. Steak tacos and steak and Bleu quesadilla were great. Margaritas were also good. The pitcher is huge.”
“I went 3 times during my stay in MD. The food was inconsistent. The people that work there are great. I sat at the bar and the service was fast and entertaining!”
“The employees are not trained on how to close a sub, all my vegetables where on the outside of the roll, being a former sandwich artist it is not that hard to close a sub with the ingredients inside (that is how subs work)but also subway manages did not care about training there employees too so ... but like the tomato's on the second half I ate today where wrapped around the outside of the bun. I was the only customer there no rush or nothing.They are also minimum wage for their food prices.”
“Good food, Service was good.Visit when it is slow because it is loud, loud, loud when it's busy. The noise from the bar area reverberates through the whole dining area.On the plus side the views from the waterside seating are great.”
“Good food, cooked right...great service by Amanda...Sept 16, I got my cod fish and it is good...cooked right and served by Valerie, professional, courteous, and attentive server.. she even saved me a piece of Meyer lemon cake...very, very good cake...Nov. 18, all you can eat shrimp( 5 varieties from which to choose) cooked well, served on time and courteously...the crispy brussel sprouts with a vinegarette reductuon are so good...Valerie is very kind, knowledgeable, and attentive...May05...Valerie is still professionally serving the best food...(Ultimate Feast)lobster tail, crab legs, shrimp scampi, and skewered shrimp...baked potato, crispy brussell sprouts, rice...and of course garlic cheese biscuits...topped off with brownie overboard...whats not to like...Aug 11...crableg feast with brussel sprouts is a very good choice, served professionally by Valerie...November 03, 2023...brussel sprouts were not crispy, fish( cod) was hard cooked in some parts, rice was bland until I added scampi butter, good and tasty cole slaw and flavorful lobster bisque (but no lobster) were not delivered with dinner( had to ask for them)...biscuits and tea saved the night...I understand the restaurant was crowded( manager had to deliver some of our food) but overall this was not one of my better dining experiences at this Red Lobster...server Susanna was professional and courteous, but overwhelmed with customers...I shall return...to be continued...January 20, 2024...crab legs ( very good and tasty) but nothing to crack them open...very disappointed...Mark is a kind,gracious, and professional server. Sweet potatoes were cooked to order and calm chowder is very good. Biscuits saved the day...”
“We went with a party of 12 for a birthday dinner. Everyone was pleased with what they ordered. Drinks, app, soup and entres were all very good, seasoned and cooked to prefection. Our waiter Wick did a great job. Definitely would recommend.”

“People are confusing the new CHINA WOK in Annapolis Mall's food court with the same named take-out place in Eastport Shopping Center (the address at the top of this page). THEY'RE NOT THE SAME!!! The one in the mall is terrible, but the one in Eastport is excellent. I don't believe they are connected in any way, just have the same name.”
“I ate here for lunch. What a wonderful place. The food was great and the staff was awesome. I haven't had pizza this good since I was in Italy.”
“They have the best pizza around and the best price.”
“Ms. Elsa and the rest of the team there are amazing and the food is great! I truly appreciate them all... When I began work at social services I had many trials and tribulations and their friendly faces and genuineness along with great food is always a wonderful warm feeling that can never be forgotten! Thank you Ms. Elsa and everyone else I will say you all are truly a staple here in the Community!!”

“Since your purchase of the shop and ot offering thr military discount, you neglected the fact that the discount supported the military, meant we'd sourrott you. Without it yiu are now like all the other businesses on main Street. Horrible miscalculation.”

“I would like to share how lovely last night's private chef meal experience was with The Bell House Catering on 03/16/24. A dear friend arranged a small gathering of some of my closest friends & family for a going away dinner. My husband & I are moving out of state after living in Maryland for 40 years. This dear friend Nancy arranged for a "My Favorite Things" dinner to wish us farewell. We had the best beef tenderloin & salmon, accompanied by roasted mushrooms & various colored peppers & onions w/ Bearnaise sauce; served with a beet salad & goat cheese; green salad with avocado, walnuts, cucumber & Violet petals. We finished the meal with an amazing chocolate cake with espresso buttercream frosting. There were other accompaniments with the dessert ~ 2 different wafer cookies and a Petit fours. Each dish was announced & served on gold plates by Chef Kelly herself, along with chef Michael. I felt like I was in heaven. Thank you to the Brien Family for such a gesture of love, and for my friends that made time to be there. It was a beautiful evening. We love you and are grateful for you. With all our gratitude and love, Jay & Mary Bachar”

“Great experience here. The crab cake in the crab cake sandwich was huge and it was so worth it. Our server Jeanette was one of the best we have had in a while. Very friendly, efficient and informative. We wanted to try one of the milkshakes where you get to keep the glass, but after seeing the portions of the food had to decide against it. Very busy but for good reason. The wait was about 15 min at around 11am on a Sunday.”
“Ordered 2 pounds of the most tender delicious pork pull As a contribution to a party, where everyone was bringing something… Rave reviews all around! It was easy to order and pleasant to deal with associate who took my order.”
“Basmati is the real deal when it comes to Indian/Punjabi grub! As soon as you walk in, you're hit with that amazing mix of spices that just screams 'flavor town.' The place has such a cozy vibe, with all these cool Indian vibes.Now, let's talk about the food – it's something else! From their butter chicken that's like a hug in a bowl to the tandoori chicken that's juicy and charred to perfection, every dish is packed with flavor and authenticity. And don't even get me started on their malai kofta – those creamy, dreamy dumplings are a game-changer!And the service? Top-notch! The staff is super friendly and always ready to hook you up with the best recommendations. They are sooooo sweet!!!!If you're into Indian/Punjabi food or just craving something seriously delicious, Basmati is where it's at.”
“Mike has been our server for the past 3 time we’ve gone. In each occasion, he has given us amazing service & his attention to detail gives you the welcoming atmosphere. He remembers that I don’t eat cheese & when I placed my order he made sure to remind me it had cheese so we removed it. The food is great as well! But the service from Mike makes it worth coming to this location!”
“A bit unique among the various OPHs I have visited. Sodas are bottled as opposed to fountain and the 2x4 (which I was really looking forward to) is not on the menu.”

“Wow, just wow! Our experience at Light House Bistro in Annapolis was nothing short of extraordinary! We stumbled upon this gem for breakfast and were blown away by what we found.From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warmth and hospitality that made us feel right at home. Our server went above and beyond to ensure we had a fantastic dining experience.And let's talk about the food—oh my goodness, it was out of this world! Each dish was a flavor explosion that left us craving more. But what really stole the show was the open kitchen concept! Watching the chefs work their magic right before our eyes added an extra layer of excitement to our meal.The ambiance was simply amazing, and the vibe was so chill—it was like being transported to a bluesy paradise. Light House Bistro has definitely earned a top spot on our list of favorite breakfast spots in Annapolis!”
“I had the pleasure of visiting a family-owned restaurant in Annapolis yesterday and I must say, it exceeded all my expectations. The customer service was impeccable and the staff, including a young boy who is also learning, were incredibly kind and welcoming. I was thoroughly impressed with the authenticity and quality of the Vietnamese cuisine - it was simply delicious. Even though they recently opened their doors, I have no doubt that they will thrive in the future. If you're looking for a wonderful dining experience, I highly recommend giving this place a try. I know I'll be back!”
“Really enjoy visits to Friday's - come to spend time with friends! We always arrange our visits to have Steve McCray as our server... Just love him and his great service!! Since we come to visit it is a bit disconcerting that the music is just a bit loud to allow for a nice visit with friends...”
“I came in to order a personal pizza to go. I didnt have to wait to place an order and the young woman who took my order was very kind and courteous. Added bonus, I happened to show up on the day they had a two for one deal, so I came to get one pizza and left with two.I highly recommend this establishment for it awesome staff, great food, and convenient location.Parking: The parking garage is right across the street from the restaraunt.Wheelchair accessibility: The door is at street level, but the doors are not automatic.”

“Everyone here was nice and the food was really good. The fish and chips tasted really fresh and they bread it themselves so the seasoning was really on point. The fries tasted seasoned as well and were good with the tartar sauceHubby had the po'boy sandwich which was also really good. I wasn't the biggest fan of the bread on the sandwich but everything else was really good.Very busy during lunch but we were able to get a seat. We'll definitely be back when we're in the area.Parking was a whole thing, but there's a garage near by if you don't mind walking a little”

“Incredible atmosphere, incredible beer, incredible burger.All these folks who left bad reviews are extremely ignorant and rude. Leaving a review within the first month or two of a highly anticipated second Rar location, because it’s “loud” or you had to wait 15 minutes to be seated, is ridiculous. Also even more ridiculous to judge their food when they just got things going and are working to get their footing with the menu and a new kitchen staff.”
“Absolutely amazing food and service ! We came here by accident but we are extremely glad we did !!! The corn bread casserole and the fish tacos were amazing !!! Alec was amazing!! Thank you”

“Had a hankering for healthy food so tried out this new entry to the Annapolis health food scene. Ordered the jerk Caesar salmon salad. Quality salmon.. quality greens .. tasty salad. Highly recommend!”
“In terms of quality they, are accurate with their orders and one of the few Starbucks that knows how to make drinks correctly. However closing at 5 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays is a bit harsh. Even being open until 7 p.m. those days would make a huge difference. Some of us like getting our caffeine fix at night.”
“Kelsey was lovely and treated my dear Auntie with care and respect (it’s her birthday). Auntie says, “she was outstanding”. The rockfish special, crab cake sandwich and flounder sandwich were all superb.”
