“This restaurant is my happy place! My favorite restaurant in Maryland. I have never had a bad experience here. The food is always delicious, the service is wonderful, and the location can’t be beat.“

“Tonight I dined with my friend and our server was Ryan. We have nothing but great things to say about him! He was very attentive and knew the menu very well and gave us great recommendations. We had the crab dip and then the mahi tacos and pasta for dinner. My friend didn't like the pasta but they had no issues with getting her a substitute. Overall amazing experience. The managers also checked on us multiple times. Great job Ryan and team!!“

“On our first visit we all enjoyed what we ordered and the staff couldn't have been nicer. We will all return. Thank you, Eastport Kitchen!!“

“There was a line but it was worth it. Service was great. The bloody Mary is something to experience. Spicy with deep flavor and the shrimp was so delicious. Monkey bread makes Cinnabon jealous. Pancakes were addicting and the omlettes were fluffy and packed with shrimp and sausage.
You feel like you are in the far south with the flavors and kindness other patrons showed us with our toddler asleep. They gladly scooted over so we could put her on the bench to sleep. Felt like we were in Charleston not Annapolis.“

“Love coming here! Always a great meal and fantastic service!!“

“I came in for a quick breakfast sandwich and found it to be a cozy grab and go vibe. There were no frills. It was a prefect, simple bacon, egg and cheese sandwich for a reasonable price. The 2 people there were super friendly and quick. A great local vibe.“

“I was there yesterday with my bestie after seeing her latest exhibit; just two older women who create. Lo a behold we found Nirvana. Perfect salads (amazingly fresh)., the best crab dip ever, with both baguette and sliced cukes to accommodate by wheat allergic friend. all followed by a terrific cappuccino and exquisite cheese cake. Such a cosy cafe atmosphere - the kind of place where you feel instantly at home yet with a dash of euro sophistication. Our server was totally, utterly lovely; friendly not overbearing, and super professional. In short - my new happy place!“

“Great Cocktails, Great Food, Great Atmosphere. If you’re only in Annapolis one night, go to Level and you won’t regret it.“

“Excellent meal with friendly and quick service. The Club, as expected, has nautical theme. Visit their website to view a menu and find the times the Club is opened for members only and available to the general public. If you are visiting the Academy, visit the Club for a meal or a drink at the bar.“

“Great bar atmosphere and good!“

“Bringing the magic of RAR Cambridge much closer to home, Chessie’s Wharf is my new favorite spot! Attentive service and the best selection of sour beers at any tap house! The jerk wings are delicious! Don’t forget to grab some “out of order” to go! And make sure to be there at the top of the hour for a performance from the choir of wall mounted Big Mouth Billy Bass!“

“The Alley restaurant at the Naval Academy provided a wonderful lunch in the middle of our self-guided tour, and it exceeded our expectations tremendously. Our waitress was so kind and caring for our family, and the crab cake was one of the best I've ever had. Don't miss it!“

“Found this fun breakfast spot on Trip Advisor; visiting from WV on 10/06/24. Three of us ordered breakfast burritos with bacon and chorizo. Delicious food and we ate outdoors, plenty of tables and enjoyed live music while taking in the view of the water and a small marina. Just perfect on a Sunday morning!“

“The food tasted amazing! But sometimes the chicken is too hard and too over-cooked, though sometimes it taste amazing! I mostly like eating the Shrimp Cerole I recomend it for people who don't like the chicken! :DYea sure U have some tummy aches here and there but this is a fast food place, even I have some tummy aches. Also, you need to understand that it is really hard to make perfect chicken, so don't blame them, It's hard work staying there doing the best they can because I see them working hard everyday...when I stay late I see them get out Weary and tired...I hope u all understand how much work they put into it and some of the new recruits making the chicken that you eat, they try yall, they try their best so I hope u understand because looking to what the veiwers acually think of the place is making me really sad :/“

“stopped here twice during our stay in Annapolis. fantastic food and service“

“So yummy. The French fries are simply amazing and so is the pizza. Actually everything was delicious“

“Was recommended this by a local co-worker. We drove 45 minutes to come to this place and boy did it not disappoint! We ordered the crab wontons, oysters rockafeller, clams casino and the crab dip. I also had the Maryland cream of crab soup. Everything was super good. The soup had good flavor but I didn't like the fact it was thick like pudding. To each their own though. My co-worker has the crab cake which he said was the best hed ever had. We also ordered 5 dozen oysters, because for 1$ each, why the heck not. They were so fresh and delicious. We had keylime pie and the something island cake which were both very good. Our server was awesome and ambiance was just like an old school bar type with tons of neat things to look at for decorations.“

“I enjoyed my dinner here with my family. The waiter was nice and the environment was clean. I ate inside and quite liked what I ordered. I would love to come back someday

“Great food, please get the BLT. EVERYTHING IS DELICIOUS!!! It's a bar, but it's family friendly!! This place has more TVs than bestbuy. And the service is impeccable. The service is above all reproach. Super Bice and the service is lightening fast.A must to go to. It a quaint spot, but expect big things here“

“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!“

“They produce incredible food from a tiny kitchen. The pork belly sliders with kimchi in particular were amazeballs. I also like a lot of their beers.“

“Great food, especially for breakfast!“

“The food is delicious and affordable, the portions large, staff friendly and attentive. We had several chef specials including : bbq bacon wrapped shrimp, street corn soup and the spaghetti squash bowl. Everything we ate was yummy! I highly recommend you visit.“

“I’ve been coming here since they’ve opened and I haven’t been disappointed. Yeah, there are times just like any restaurant where things might not be perfect or what you’d expect. But since I am a chef and I’ve worked in several restaurants, the difference between how something is cooked one day can be a difference between who’s working that day. They do make some of the best pizzas around! They have a bar, game nights, special pizza nights, buy one get one on Tuesday and even Social nights where you can cook things in the kitchen. What I recommend about Neo Pizza? Everything! It’s a good restaurant, not too overpriced. A great place to hang, socialize, have a beer and enjoy good times with friends or family.“

“We love the steaks, pancakes and milkshakes and everything else. Comfort foods“

“Wow, what a great find. The BBQ brisket was delicious. Also had the Honey Old Bay wings. These were cooked and sauced perfectly! Bonus, they are
dog friendly. We ate outside, and our fury kids were treated very nicely with their own bowl of water and some chicken. They also give 5 sauces from sweet to heat. As a dipper, this was great!“

“Had another great experience at the Annapolis First Watch, this time it was due to the generosity of an employee in addition to good service and good food. I’m happy to patron a business that takes good care of its customers.“
