Lewnes' Steakhouse 401 Fourth St, Annapolis Fine Dining • $$$

“Do not get the cheesecake for dessert! They get it from an outside source and it arrives frozen. You can tell by how it crumbles. The Graham cracker crust is too thick. Another give away it is round like a Puck.Everything else was great. The creamed spinach and the mashed are plenty for two or three people. The seafood Bisque is excellent.Good pour on my scotch. My wife got a cab save by the glass and thought it was great. The coffee after dinner was strong but very good.”

Light House Bistro 202 West St, Annapolis Bistros • $

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.

J. Alexander's Restaurant 1906 Towne Centre Blvd Suite 155, Annapolis American • $$$

“I wanted to stay in Annapolis but wasn't quite sure what I wanted to eat. Did a quick search and found this delight of a place. I was able to make reservations on the same day (Saturday) My wife and I arrived and were quickly seated. The restaurant has a nice intimate feel however this place was jumping. Tons of people inside with everyone having a good time. Our waitress was sweet. Made good suggestions and was very attentive. For starters we ordered the Crispy Calamri while my wife had a lemon drop for a drink. The Clamari was in fact crispy. Very solid crunch. The marinara sauce was PIPING hot. Good start to our dinner. The lemon drop was a good mix of alcohol and juice. They provide you the cup along with the remainder on the side. BIG TIME PLUS. For Dinner, I was starving. I ordered the Steak N Fries, along with the Rockfish and Not your Ordinary Mac & Cheese. The steak was delicious! Nice and juicy. Cooks to perfection. Fries were crispy. The Fish was tasty and the mashed potatoes were GREAT!!! The Mac & Cheese is definitely not ordinary. There was a tangy taste that I could do without. It was missing something but the rest of my food was so good I could easily overcook it. My wife ordered the Steak Brazil with mashed Potatoes & Broccoli. She also enjoyed her food. Broccoli was fresh. Mashed Potatoes were delicious. She preferred the filet cooked a little more but still ate them. I'd happily come back and plan on returning to J. Alexander. It was a great time. Great service, Wonderful atmosphere, and good food. I enjoyed myself.”

“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.”

“Our family went here this evening (Easter) for dinner. We were a party of 11. In spite of it being a holiday, us having a large party and the restaurant being busy.......service was 100% on point! Rafael was our server and he was excellent the ENTIRE time. He consistently checked in on us throughout the entire time we were there and graciously accommodated us in every way. Not only was Rafael great....... the restaurant had several large parties and I could see that the management team was not just present. It was "all hands on deck" to ensure everyone had an amazing experience. I appreciate the attentiveness, the kindness and warmth we were given from the entire team. And I certainly don't want to leave out the food and chefs?The food was great. The calamari was cooked perfectly. The Lobster Ravioli wstile the show but, everyone was pleased with their selections.

“I received a coupon in the mail for a free appetizer, which got me really excited to try this place. When I walked or drove by it, I always loved the atmosphere and seeing people enjoying themselves outside during the summer. For my meal, I started with Italian Prosecco and grilled octopus as my appetizer. Then I had a veal entrée with gnocchi Mac n cheese, and for dessert, I enjoyed amaretto coffee with a delicious almond cake. Everything was freshly prepared, and the staff and service were incredible. While the veal wasn't my favorite, I think it's more about personal preference for that type of dish rather than the way the restaurant prepared it. Despite that, I definitely plan on going again because I had such a great experience.Wheelchair accessibility: The restaurant is wheelchair accessible”

“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.”

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!”

We were surprised at how quickly 5 orders (sandwiches, salad, and loaded potatoes) all came out boom boom boom .... but the woman at the counter said it best, "we've been doing this for 28 years, we have it down."

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!”

“Our family went here this evening (Easter) for dinner. We were a party of 11. In spite of it being a holiday, us having a large party and the restaurant being busy.......service was 100% on point! Rafael was our server and he was excellent the ENTIRE time. He consistently checked in on us throughout the entire time we were there and graciously accommodated us in every way. Not only was Rafael great....... the restaurant had several large parties and I could see that the management team was not just present. It was "all hands on deck" to ensure everyone had an amazing experience. I appreciate the attentiveness, the kindness and warmth we were given from the entire team. And I certainly don't want to leave out the food and chefs?The food was great. The calamari was cooked perfectly. The Lobster Ravioli wstile the show but, everyone was pleased with their selections. Everything came out warm and to our liking.You don't always get great experiences when dining out on holidays, but today was exceptionaland this team really shined.”

Uncle Julio's Annapolis 181 Jennifer Rd, Annapolis Mexican • $$

“We stopped in for dinner on a beautiful Sunday evening after a busy day watching our daughter compete athletically. We had a short 15 minute wait (for a booth inside) as was discussed with the polite young man at the host stand. The restaurant seemed to have a steady flow of guests with most tables occupied. Though there were also several tables unoccupied, they were in need of immediate attention being cleared. I noticed several staff meandering around but ignoring the unkept tables. Once we got sat, we were greeted by our server after maybe 5 minutes or so. He was very efficient in the beginning, quickly bringing our drinks and taking a food order for our hungry daughter. Her food came out fast which was fantastic. Once we placed the remaining food order, we basically never saw our server again. We asked other staff for a minor food correction, more chips & salsa, and other necessary things during our meal. THE FOOD WAS OUTSTANDING!! Came out within a timely manner. Our server came back to check on us as we were finishing up. He did bring me some containers for our unfinished food but no bag to place the different size containers in (which I couldn’t comfortably carry). Our table had zero dishes or glasses removed which made it challenging for me to pack up our food with all the clutter. I will say he was very kind in bringing me a bag of fresh chips to take home. When it was time for me to pay our bill, our server presented an electronic handheld device to process my credit card payment. Once payment was processed, and it was time for the gratuity to be added (mind you he’s still holding the small device but has it positioned where it’s partially visible to me) without hesitation, he starts to automatically press the 20% gratuity button as he says to me, “20% right?” I found this to be so brazen and incredibly rude. I told him I’d tip him accordingly which ended up being more than the 20% (after I had to walk up to the host stand to ask for a bag and ask why the handheld timed out before completing my payment with added gratuity). I’ve worked in this industry for longer than dirt and appreciate that he came to work so that my family and I could have a nice dinner out. I don’t know if this is standard procedure for your service staff to feel entitled to a certain tip percentage regardless of their effort or urgency, or if he just felt that he deserved that but he overstepped boundaries. I didn’t see any management or else I would’ve addressed it during our visit. I’d like to reiterate that our food was truly delicious and I’m thankful for those that showed up for their shift. We’ve always had lovely visits to your establishment without incident.”

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.

Potbelly 2002 Annapolis Mall Rd, Annapolis Sandwich Shop • $

“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?”

Then I had a veal entrée with gnocchi Mac n cheese, and for dessert, I enjoyed amaretto coffee with a delicious almond cake. Everything was freshly prepared, and the staff and service were incredible. While the veal wasn't my favorite, I think it's more about personal preference for that type of dish rather than the way the restaurant prepared it.

“Wed 4/24/24. Stopped in on the way from Richmond to Dover. Parked right up front. Greeters were on the ball and had 2 menus ready to seat us immediately. Mora was our server, came right away for our order, and took great care of us during our visit. Food order was correct and piping hot. Definitely recommended. ? ? ? ? ?Carl in DoverParking: Plenty of free parking”

The Lodge Annapolis 177 Jennifer Rd, Annapolis American • $$

“So went here to celebrate. This is a new establishment. We went on Tuesday after Christmas. It was so crowded. We made reservations. I believe our server did move a little slow. We kept asking for the check after we was served. It did take a long time we waited. Everything needed a little salt & pepper to wake up the flavors. The crab dip was basic and small. The appetizer are definitely small plates. You can’t share lol. I got the burger for my meal it was good but need salt. The fries were really good and those rolls was everything and worth the wait.”

Starbucks 2122 Generals Hwy, Annapolis Coffee Shops

“FINALLY! I have visited this location roughly 6 times since they opened and they get my drink correct! It's been so many times that I get a "mystery" drink because it was made incorrectly and having the drink remade by the same folks at the same location is just not it. Thanks 2122 Generals Hwy team!”
