“The chocolate chip is a family fav love how they have different flavors monthly the tres leches was amazing only thing I’d recommend is if they would have forks or spoons. Sometimes their flavors are a bit too sweet and other times I’ve gotten their flavors and they’re amazing. Overpriced treats but they’re good”
“I wanted a good steak for my birthday and I immediately jumped on google.. I came across Lewnes Steakhouse and read the reviews. We dined there yesterday for my birthday. From the time we walked in until the time we left everything was great! The food was very delicious and our steaks were cooked to perfection as requested. The waiter was very attentive and checked on us multiple times. The complimentary brownie with fudge and Ice-cream was mouthwatering. We will be returning soon.”
“Wow! My tastebuds went into overload! I ordered a BLT sandwich recommendation from our server (who was great!) and it was the best I’ve ever had! So juicy and unique! The onion rings are definitely over the top as well! Everything coming out of the kitchen from their soups, salads and sandwiches looked amazing! One of my new favorite spots😊”
“I have enjoyed my meals at Galway Bay. The food and atmosphere is very good. I was conflicted over whether or not I should give four or five stars, but I could not overlook that on out most recent visit the server did not return to collect the check. After waiting for about 30 minutes, one of us went and delivered the check to our server. This does not overshadow the great food and generally positive experiences that we have had here, and I'm sure that we will be back again for more delicious meals on Maryland Avenue. (maybe when the restaurant is less busy)”

“From start to finish, it was awesome. Food, Wine, Dessert & Coffee perfection. The Hostess and our server Jennifer were very friendly and wonderful. First time here but definitely not our last. 10/10 complements to the Chef👍. Our meal started with the Chefs Selection Board, then the special of the day Mushroom Soup, my Husband had the Cast Iron Skirt Steak (flavor was Delish) I had the Chicory Salad with Bacon Bits (minus the pecan nuts) for Dessert I had the FIG & BRIOCHE BREAD PUDDING (heaven in a plate) with the yummy Coffee.”
“I had a rehearsal dinner for 97 people including 11 children and a welcome party after for about 100 people. The food was outstanding and the service was exceptional! The children loved the pizza! Taylor, the event coordinator, made this a five star event in every category including STRESS FREE for me being I live in New York! My son and now daughter in law said it couldn’t have been better! Their wedding was on Gibson Island the next day so it was a great start to the weekend!”
“La Sierra has been our favorite Mexican restaurant for several years now. We, including my children and grandchildren, all love their food, the family atmosphere and the friendly / professional staff. My favorite are the fajitas, ceviche and virgin margarita on the rocks.”
“Each time I go to the Maternal and Fetal doctor, I stop here. I’ve had wraps and sandwiches and and every time it has been amazing. The young gentleman who always takes our order is part owner and so sweet. Today I ordered a green chicken wrap and it was delish! The young man even brought my order out to me before I could make it back inside. Recommend trying it out based on taste, quality, timeliness, and friendliness.”
“I had the pleasure of visiting the bar at Graduate Annapolis and was thoroughly impressed. The ambiance is stylish yet relaxed, making it a perfect spot to unwind. Service was excellent across the board, but I’d like to give special thanks to Michael, who stood out for his warmth, professionalism, and attentiveness. He made sure everything was perfect from start to finish. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a great bar experience in Annapolis.”

“We stayed here for a week and came to Annapolis to watch someone graduate from the United States Naval Academy. The hotel is comprised of three different buildings that are not connected. The staff was very friendly and helpful, and answered questions that we had about staying in Annapolis. The valet service was very helpful about providing transportation for our luggage to our room, which was located in a different building, using a small shuttle. The hotel is very conveniently located within walking distance of shops and restaurants in Downtown Annapolis. The rooms were very clean, comfortable, and nice. Our first day arriving the temperature outside was in the low 90s, and the bedroom air conditioning functioned very well. We would stay here again if we come to visit the town, which is also charming.”
“Our first time in the area and it was a beautiful experience. Unfortunately I don't know how spell the wonderful young ladies name who was making our sandwiches but again absolutely wonderful and she did her magic with each sandwich. Was so torn when we finished them. Wish we didn't live 6 hours away.”
“This McDonald's location use to have a BIG problem with service when they had a certain night shift manager on staff who was very rude to customers. Well, they must've finally listened to all the complaints and got rid of her, or she quit. Now this location has improved immensely since then. This is my hometown McDonald's so it pleases me to finally be able to give it a 5 star. Don't skip this spot if you're on your way across the bay bridge.”

“Great food and the service was amazing. They have an interesting mix between Venezuelan and Spanish tapas. I recomend the cheese arepa, pastelitos andinos , and the tostones they are full of flavor. If your looking for authentic and unique dishes this is the place!”

“Absolutely delicious! Yum yum yum!! Blue Crab creates the best cakes and cupcakes around. We requested a traditionally decorated two-tier wedding cake, and they completely knocked it out of the park — it was beautiful and tasted incredible! The mini cupcakes were a huge hit with our guests. The lemon blueberry flavor is a fan favorite! We couldn’t have been happier with how everything turned out and highly recommend them to anyone looking for amazing wedding desserts. 🍰✨”

“Absolutely stunning and delicious macaroons! Beautifully presented with a perfect mix of colors and flavors. The shells were delicate with just the right crunch, and the fillings were smooth, fresh, and not overly sweet. They made a gorgeous centerpiece and tasted as good as they looked. Truly a special treat!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We stopped by Curate Annapolis Café, Bakery & Wine Bar and were blown away by how delicious everything was! The pumpkin muffins were perfectly spiced and moist, and the specialty chai was absolutely amazing, cozy and full of flavor. 🍂☕ The service made the experience even better, thank you, Skye, for being so kind and attentive! Can’t wait to come back for more treats soon. 💛”
“I have been a patron at McGarvey's for years. I love your food and service. However, first time I have a complaint. I was anxious to try the crab balls, as pictured in your menu. Although they weren't horrible, they looked nothing like the picture on your menu, very disappointed. I expected pieces of white crab meat and we got very crusted, fried little round balls. I bragged to my grandson about the picture on your menu and it was certainly not what we got. I must say, it is the first thing I have been disappointed with. Either change the picture or take them off your menu.”

“The staff are very kind and the food is delicious. They have a sweet patio to enjoy on a beautiful day, the inside is warm historical vibe”

“Everything was fantastic! The food was tasty and delicious, with very generous portions. Every side dish was excellent, and the chocolate mousse was a real highlight.
Cream of crab soup is a must try.
The restaurant was clean, and the staff were friendly and welcoming.”
“We love the Drummer’s Lot Pub, and stopped by several times after dinners during our 4 days stay. Gave the food a five star, but honestly didn’t eat there. The rating didn’t allow us to skip it.
The atmosphere is very cool. Blues music playing, and decor remind you of a speakeasy. The hostess, Julia, is our favorite. Patrons are nice and “behave”, not loud. Somehow, I don’t think Julia would tolerate it! Highly recommend.”
“12/10 you must eat at Grapes Wine Bar in Annapolis! The food was phenomenal, but more importantly the service was impeccable. Stephen was so nice and fun and let us try a few different wines to see what we liked. We have lived here a couple years and this is our new favorite! Can’t wait to come back.”
Cheap Eats
“Pizza was great and service was quick and attentive. It was a bit unique in that after we were seated, and got menus, we the. went to the counter to order. They have us a number and then brought the food to our table. The space was also a little cramped and if much busier could have been tough to sit down together. It was myself, my wife and our two kids. But there was a table and the host had great energy and made the experience even better.
The wood fired pizza was amazing and I would highly recommend Timber Pizza.
The pricing was a little steeper than fast food pizza, but it was MUCH better. We had empanadas and three different pies. One of them customized for our youngest.”
“I’d give it 6 stars if I could. Looks like a bookstore from the outside, but guess what?! Well. It kind of is a bookstore. Because it’s IN a bookstore. But that’s part of its charm. The coffee is great, obviously. And they have tea. Just don’t you dare ask for chamomile. Or if you’re feeling playful, you can always get some hot choccy. They’re always playing great music too. A fantastic atmosphere. I go in every single day with my laptop to do some work and I swear, I accomplish more in one hour than a college kid on Adderall cramming at 4am for an 8am final. The real absolute rockstar of the show, though, is Madison. I think she might actually be superhuman. Once I ordered something and she told me no, I don’t want that, and then made me something else. And you know what? She was absolutely right. It’s like she was able to take her hand and reach it into the deep, dark recesses of my soul and somehow know more about me and what I want than I’ve ever known about myself my whole life. I will never question her on anything again. If you’re in Annapolis for even just one day, this place is a must stop. Just don’t come when I’m there, I’m trying to get some work done.”
“This place was great! We stayed in the rooms above which were really comfortable and we dined in the restaurant for lunch and had breakfast there. Highly recommend! It was also neat that they do the Pledge of Allegiance daily! The staff was also very friendly. Again, highly recommend!”
“This place gets super busy but totally worth the wait. The line moves relatively quickly, and the wait for food can be upwards of 30 mins during the rush. The parking lot is small, pull around the back for more parking. Service is prompt and friendly and they have seasonal specialty lattes on a board to the left of the registers, definitely don't miss them! I ordered a honey lavender latte that was perfectly balanced and so tasty. I also ordered a breakfast biscuit sandwich. The biscuit was buttery and delicious and there was a bit too much cheese for me, but that might be your kind of thing. There's both outdoor and indoor seating and turnover is quick! You can order online ahead of time and head to the back of the store for pick up if you're in a rush.”
“My wife and I lost power & heat before Christmas so we had to spend the holidays out of the house with our 5 week old daughter. We ate Christmas lunch/dinner at SHIKA sushi &ramen and it was awesome! They really saved the day for us. We are usually 4-6 rolls feasters so thought we’d just start with 3 and go from there. 3 was plenty! The rolls were massive and delicious. The service was great. Poor lady had to fill my water like 10 times. And they sealed the deal with a free piece of cheesecake! Entire meal came in about $50! Highly recommend you go check them out! Cheers!”
“Since checking this place out, I have become a regular customer, and now come in 1-2x a week for a grocery restock. I have had no time to cook since the new year and had been eating out almost every meal.... but there are so few places around with healthy options. I am so picky about what fruits and veggies, organic items, etc. that I eat, and thankfully sprouts has provided great options for that! The baristas/cashiers are always so helpful and kind to us. Some of my favorites are-- ALL of the soups (seriously that chicken and rice is perfection, especially if you are under the weather), turkey chili, thai wrap, veggie wrap, egg roll in a bowl, drunken noodles, bbq chicken and succotash, the vitality ginger drink (that spice burns but feels good!), the challah and sourdough bread, eskimo bites for a treat, and the strawberry blondie brownies! I am trying new things as the menu changes, but these have been on my constant restock when available of what I have had so far!! I recently learned they can heat the items for you, so you can eat a hot meal there (I have not done this yet myself, as this is like grocery shopping for me so i take it home... but i have seen lots of people in there enjoying their meals!) I have seen some complain about the prices, but if you know the quality of what you are getting (local, organic), then you would realize these are very fair prices! If I have ever wanted to request something or had a slight issue, Sprouts has always been more than happy to accommodate. Thank you Sprouts for providing great service and food options to the community! You will see me again soon! Gluten free, Dairy free, or Flexitarian, check them out!”
“Great atmosphere. Delicious food. Fresh ingredients every single time we were eating there. The last place we wanted to visit while moving out of state. Thanks a lot for great memories. The place where kids fell in love with healthy food and do not choose junk food on the future. The minus is you have difficulty finding equivalent in other cities or states. We will miss you a lot!”
“I would highly recommend going and when you go ask for a woman named Cory to be your server. She greeted my family and I right at the entrance and made us feel right at home. I’d say she was close to a kind reader as it comes because she basically knew what we needed before we ever said anything. Our drinks stayed filled and any questions about the menu we had she had the answers. The food came out quickly and was delicious. We will be showing our faces again and will be making Cory our regular server.”
“A truly special place to eat with a wide selection of food and wines.”
“Some of the best pizza we’ve had! Tried the Marissa and Traditional White and both were amazing. Cool atmosphere, but loud, so be prepared. Staff was very friendly.”
“Heroes Pub is my new favorite spot! Had lunch there yesterday and Kristi was great! Can't wait to go back!”
“La Sierra has been our favorite Mexican restaurant for several years now. We, including my children and grandchildren, all love their food, the family atmosphere and the friendly / professional staff. My favorite are the fajitas, ceviche and virgin margarita on the rocks.”
“Always a great experience whether I am eating there or taking it home.”

“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.”
“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!!”

“I was in Annapolis, Maryland this past weekend for a wedding. I was on the search for a coffee shop and come across Seoul Blues Coffee. I ordered a pistachio latte, hot and it was the best pistachio latte i have ever had. The best! Get you one if you are ever in the area.”
“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”
“I made a stop at the new urban Mexican restaurant and I want to share my amazing experience. I ordered a dish from Chef Corner, Halibut al Pastor. I highly recommend it. It's a 10 out of 10, just like the Sprinter Margaritas. They are delicious and very refreshing. I 100% recommend this place.”

“Went on a Sunday afternoon. Not busy at all. Wife and I decided to do an early Valentine’s Day date. The food was phenomenal. We decided to do the whole experience. The open buffet was great. A lot of options and all tasted great. The plantains and one of the pastas they had was very good. Great service from all the people going around with the meats. One that stood out was Robert he was very friendly and very attentive to the guest and what we wanted. We told him how we wanted the meat cooked and which one and he was on it! The server was awesome too always coming around the check on us. The desserts was very delicious. We are definitely coming back”
“My wife and I chose Cafe Normandie to celebrate our 54th anniversary, and we are so glad we did! We feasted on the fabulous Chateau Briand expertly prepared and elegantly served by our wonderful waitress Giselle. This was not just a meal, but a culinary event for us. The food, the French decor, the background music and excellent service combined to make this a very, special experience! We will definitely be back!”
“This place was great! We stayed in the rooms above which were really comfortable and we dined in the restaurant for lunch and had breakfast there. Highly recommend! It was also neat that they do the Pledge of Allegiance daily! The staff was also very friendly. Again, highly recommend!”
“Level is our favorite spot in Annapolis! It’s perfect for a romantic date night or for a casual dinner, you can truly dress up or down and fit in here. The food is always amazing, even our family (who can be tough critics) were very happy with their food choices. The menu rotates a little seasonally and it’s always fun to try the new items and revisit the permanent items. The cocktails are super creative and you can’t really go wrong with any of them! Some of our current favorites: Harvest Mule, Agave Please for drinks and for food… house fries, tuna poke, ribs, brussel sprouts, and the oysters! Crab Mac and cheese is a must if it’s on the menu! Oh and don’t forget to leave room for dessert, we love all the choices but banana bread pudding is our favorite! 11/10 love coming here.”

I will be going back tomorrow night for dinner again so I CAN TRY THE MEATS!!! 10/10 EMPLOYEES DID AN OUTSTANDING JOB! Will be back tomorrow!!”
“Dear Tatte, I just wanted to say happy holidays and to thank you for opening a location in Crystal City (Arlington, VA). The staff and managers are exceptional. I enjoy having a local bakery/coffee shop I can walk to and loose myself in a book or anything really. It's a roomy location, well-designed and welcoming. It has become my home away from home.”
“Been coming to this location for a couple months now, and have felt compelled to write a review after what I witnessed during a lunch rush today.
The staff here has been consistently kind and polite, despite the heavy lunch rushes and floods of online orders, the store as well, stays clean and well kept.
Today I walked in during a rush, was greeted with the same politeness as always, and was given my sandwich in a timely manner, with it looking and tasting as good as it usually does. Might I add I watched the employees very tactfully deal with some customers who were being quite rude, whilst still dealing with the large amount of orders.
This location has yet to disappoint me, and the employees here deserve kudos for their patience and service. (Pictured below is the banger sandwich I ordered)”
“I had a good experience at this Pollo Campero location. All staff were kind, patient and helpful. The food was nice and hot, and the chicken was so juicy unlike any other chicken restaurant. Not to mention I had a pretty good portion of everything compared to other Pollo Campero locations.”
