My wife and I have been meaning to try this spot ever since the summer our daughter entered the Naval Academy, and we finally made it happen. From the very first bite, we couldn’t help but wonder why we waited so long. The portions are generous, beautifully plated, and every dish bursts with flavor. The seasoning is perfectly balanced—bold without being overpowering—and the sauces are nothing short of decadent, adding layers of richness that elevate each bite.
We only managed to sample a handful of dishes this time, but it was enough to know we’ll be back on every trip to downtown Annapolis. The menu is full of tempting options, and I already have my eye on several dishes that sound even better than the last. This place is a must for anyone who loves food done right.

Our service was great! Drinks good too. Loved the nacho appetizer. Very cheesy! Had the chicken tostadas. Chicken tastes good but greens were too dry . They need a little oil or dressing to improve this dish! Cute little place.

Out of their main food items. Received burnt rice and wilted spinach with our food. Service outright rude to our table and tables nearby. Don’t be tempted by the pretty photos online - this place is NOT it

The tequila menu is fantastic! The service is always friendly and thoughtful, and we've yet to order something we didn't enjoy. Both the indoor and outdoor seating options create a great atmosphere. This place never disappoints!

We had very nice waitstaff. It's a very cute place but tiny. So when a singer playing the guitar started, I could not hear my friend speaking across the table from me. I asked to move as far as possible and the waitstaff happily obliged. Service was excellent. The food however was a disappointment. I ordered chips with salsa, queso, and guacamole. The chips were thick, stale, and cardboard like, and the queso had little taste. My friend was not impressed with her meal either. Very cute place and friendly staff. They need to work on the food.
Waited 1 hour and 10 minutes to get our food. Literally the slowest service I have ever seen. Food finally came out and order was wrong. Unacceptable. Food looked like it was prepped by kitchen staff with 0 experience and definitely not worth the price. Will not be coming back.

Great cocktails!! These bartenders really know what they’re doing. It really adds to the casual chic vibe. Haven’t tried the food (yet!) but my friends say it’s BOMB 💣 I love the vicinity to the Naval Academy, so post walk of the Yard, you can have yourself a capirinha. The vibe is super chill—can be a great spot for a date or a an experience with friends 💃🏽

Unfortunately I have to change my review since they laid off their staff without any notice, lying to them telling them that they were closing only to let the current staff go and hire new people. We haven’t been back since this happened :(
It’s a shame because the previous chef had great offerings but I just can’t support a place that does that to its employees

The food is rather good: queso is great, guac is solid, even the fries are pretty good, and the entrees are quite tasty. It’s a real shame, then, that the service is so poor. I ordered a burrito and asked to sub shrimp instead of chicken/steak and then asked for fries instead of the side salad and it ended up costing $16 more (total of $35 which is obscene). Our waiter never once mentioned any sort of upcharge and when we inquired about the price we were met with “is what it is.” Disappointing. That coupled with the fact that the service was very slow and inattentive made it a subpar meal. And the food really was delicious, probably some of the best Mexican food in Annapolis, which makes it all the worse that it wasn’t an enjoyable experience. We’ve been twice and might give it a third shot - hopefully it’ll be better then.

We enjoyed an early dinner at The Goat. We really enjoyed the food. I had the smothered chicken burrito and a very well made margarita. My friend enjoyed the blackened mahi sandwich with a glass of wine. The side salads were fresh with a light dressing. The service was on point with plenty of checking in and refills of our water glasses. It was fun to watch all of the Navy Midshipmen walk by during dinner. We did have to ask for the music to be turned down since we were seated near the speaker and had a hard time having a conversation. They were very amenable and turned it down some. I would definitely return for another fresh well prepared meal with solid service.
