Ruben was a great waiter and the food was outstanding. Recommend you try the crab balls. So good.

You gotta hear me out.. If you are from this area- you are familiar with this place as a cool fun bar in the middle of downtown Annapolis- can get wild on DJ night. BUT THEY HAVE AN UPSTAIRS Private Banquet area that is UNBELIEVABLE. We had a rehearsal dinner here and it was AMAZING- the facility had private bar area, beautiful fireplace dining room- looked like something from Europe or Colonial Williamsburg. The catering staff was outstanding- from the general manager, Salomon- to all the bartenders and waitstaff- they helped us plan and then pull off an amazing event. Could not recommend more highly- so grateful to O'Brien's for providing a perfect venue and memorable event to our family.

Excellent food. We had the Shrimp pasta, mussels, seared tuna and crab soup. Tasty and very delicious! Sad I forgot our server's name but she was wonderful. My wife and I will certainly return.

What a great little place. The food was really good, the drinks were strong, and they have a large bar in the front and back with outdoor seating behind the reataurant too. It is a great place to hang out.

We had great service by Crista! Old Bay chicken wings were a great start and of course crab cakes rounded it out. I am sure it is hopping during the warmer months. Good music playing in the background.

1 server - under staffed. Super slow. The food was just so so. Oysters had zero flavor.

I had the crab balls and they were great! Service was spectacular also.
Waited in front of 5 or 6 staff members to be acknowledged. One commented with profanity after another left. Only then were we seen. Hostess rolled her eyes, brought us halfway through the restaurant before deciding there was no table, and then approached a waitress and laughed.Pathetic customer service. Left to find a better atmosphere.

Wow been working in Annapolis for about 7yrs first time stopping in and WOW. The RAW Bar oysters are outstanding, so good and the drinks are great too. Happy hour starts at 2pm-6pm.

The food was outstanding, and the portion size was acceptable. We didn't get stuffed but left comfortable. Nice decor, and the tables weren't cramped. The service was good, but a little slow, given that the restaurant was only half full at the time.

We went for restaurant week. They were out of one of the 2 choices of dessert & did not offer a replacement. Since we did not care for the only option, the meal was overpriced for what it was. The cup of cream of crab soup was a bit too salty for my taste, but the crab cake was good & the Brussel sprouts were wonderful.

Place is terrible. Made a reservation for my wife and I, hostess said when we got here that their dinning room was only for parties of 6 or more. She was quite rude and lying for some reason. We had to sit in the bar by the exit door on a wobbly table. The old fashioned cocktail was simply not good (and I've had my share of old fashioneds in my day). Server was nice but forgot about us for a while after our main was served. Cream of crab soup was essentially a cup of old bay seasoned milk. Steak was just ok, nothing special at all. Even the desserts were not good and I'm not sure how you mess those up. We ate quickly and left to go somewhere else to get drinks. With all the great food in Annapolis, this place is a waste of time and money. I've had better service and food from a taco truck. Lastly, someone from there called my wife an hour and half after our reservation and rudely asked if we were still coming.
