“I had a large catering order for a construction meeting in DC. They asked for something new. Since I love Julep's, I brought some for my customers. Emily was great from start to finish and helped me make a good menu. I asked for the order to be ready by 1030am and they made it happen. Everyone loved the food. You don't win friends with salad. Highly recommend!“

“Great food and drink, with live music on weekends!“

“Great small plates and cocktails. Love the rooftop atmosphere“

“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.“

“This was my second time dining at The Lodge and the food was fantastic both times. I love the comfy booths and the quiet atmosphere there. Everyone from the host to the waiters are very friendly and efficient. My only complaint is that the waiters are very pushy about trying to get you to order extra things that you do not want. First I was offered 2 different kinds of water in fancy bottles, regular and sparking, which I'm sure were more expensive than the tap water that I requested. It was presented not as an option, but "which one do you choose?" I didn't fall for that one. Then we were told about a special drink that was available - no thanks. Next was a special crab appetizer that was described to us and then we were asked if we were "sold on it?" We were not interested. Then a wine was recommended before we even ordered. My friend already knew what kind of wine she planned to order and I don't drink! And then when we finished our meal our waiter told us that we could get some ribs to take home with us at a special price! He just would not give up trying to sell us extra food to try and make the bill higher! We didn't appreciate it and it put a damper on our dining experience! The food there is excellent, however it is very pricey. We love the ambiance there and the food, however the pushy wait staff has made us think twice about returning!“

“Best restaurant 5stars and clean“

“Excellent service, delicious menu and beautiful decor. We had our rehearsal dinner and anniversary dinner here and plan to make it a tradition ❤️“

“Unique food focused on local products and sustainability. The food is like nothing I’ve had before. Highly recommend the crispy kale appetizer. Love the homemade “sodas” especially the citrus soda and ginger soda.“

“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!!“

“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.“

“Great staff, great food, great hospitality“

“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.“

“Todo está muy rico 😋 lo recomiendo 💯“

“Maddie is an amazing waitress! So accommodating and kind.“

“Harvest Thyme Tavern is one of our most favorite restaurants in the DMV, yet a neighborhood gem. We probably eat here more than most go out to dinner in a month. I admire the family ownership and commitment to running the establishment on a daily basis. The food is sourced from our local farmers and that’s just another reason we love this place. The quality ingredients make all the difference in the food and the cocktails. Burgers, fish, salads, pasta and pizza no one else comes close to. Everything here tastes amazing. Pam has desserts to die for, always a select menu and then she has daily offerings that will have you questioning which one to go for. Have no doubt you will love everything! Hands down the best Spicy Cadillac Margarita and that alone speaks volumes. The atmosphere is warm and cozy. The staff is always accommodating, personal, professional and friendly. I promise you will not be disappointed!!!“

“Great staff & customer service,,, affordable eats / great milkshakes!!!“

“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!“

“Incredible food, great service, and a great atmosphere.“

“Deale needed this café desperately!! Since there is not much else like it close by this place is very great. Lovely breakfast and lunch options. Fresh baked pies lots of drinks indoor and outdoor seating. Only going 4/5 because the food can definitely be stepped up. Just using higher quality ingredients is really all they need. Otherwise, I love this place“

“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.“

“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.“

“Food was amazing. Very unique little spot. Cannot wait to return Our waitress Allie was sweet and attentive !!!“

“the food and staff are great. atmosphere is second to none“

“friendly service great food“

“It's good food. I like it.“

“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!“

“We love Happy Harbor Food is great staff is friendly“

“Wonderful establishment. Great wine selection and the pizza and bartending staff are awesome.“

“Everything about this place was great. Erin, the bartender was very personable and knowledgable about all aspects of the F and B service. Her attention to detail was inspiring. Her connection with her guests made each of us feel as though we were the only ones there. Rashaan , the Chef made some incredible good. It was clean and satisfying. When I asked Erin to give our compliments to the Chef he came out and personally thanked us. This was in the top 2 of hotel restaurants. Those two made it easy to love.“

“Service and food were very good. We are visiting the area and intend to head back for seconds or thirds before we leave.“

“Delish Lobsta roll!!!! I’m hooked….. young man that waited on us was 5 star!“

“Stopped in today and tried the Roast Beef Panini. Terrific!“

“Good food. Beer was cold. Perfect location. Nice people !“

“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.“

“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.“

“TGIF has been one of 2 go-to eating places any time I travel. Always love-me some whiskey glaze chicken strips!“

“Their food is very professionally prepared. It tastes great and I also like their health-conscious options.“

“While visiting family from Upstate NY, I had the opportunity to visit Chad’s. It was SUCH a great place!! Sheila the bartender is an ABSOLUTE angel, she’s very funny, and when you leave..she sends you off with the best wishes!! I also got to meet Chad himself, nice fella, and his dog sweet sweet Luna…OH yeah!! They are dog friendly in their outdoor dining area. I had the rosemary fries, and the Carolina pulled pork sandwich, and it was SO delicious!! I recommend Chad’s a 10/10, not only for the food, but for the excellent atmosphere..it’s like everyone is family there!!🤗🤗“

“Everything I've had has been delicious. It's like your mom is in the kitchen cooking up your food. Highly recommend.“

“We just got a snack and a drink, which were good, but the place seemed filled with a lot of regulars that were having a great time. The grassy area was perfect for my crawling baby too while we hung out so will def be back to spend some more time looking at the menu.“

“Great beer, good food, and always a good time! Forward never disappoints and is a great local spot!“

“First time there today. Atmosphere, food, and service were perfect!😊“

“DaHo's management and staff are special. They make you feel so welcome that you feel like you're visiting a friend's home.

Super casual and comfortable. Easy to mingle or find your private table. A zillion tv's for catching any game. Live music several nights a week.

I haven't tried everything because I got hooked on a few of the menu items. I love the Fish & Chips - perfectly crunchy on the outside and tender flakiness on the inside. The Caesar Salad and Fried Chicken Salad are delish. And their burger is exactly what you want when you get the craving. The portions are generous and the prices are just right.

Best of all, the owner and staff set a special, welcoming atmosphere. This carries over to the guests so you really experience a cheerful, happy vibe. It feels like going to a party. It explains why they have such a strong repeat audience. I'm a fan!“

“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.“

“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!“

“Fantastic staff and the owners are the best!“

“Anthony’s Bar and Grill is consistently fantastic! The food is always delicious, and the drinks are top-notch. What really sets this place apart is the amazing staff and owners. Charlene, Chrystal, Taylor, Reagan & Chrissy are all incredibly friendly and make you feel right at home. Todd’s Trivia & Karaoke nights are a blast! If you’re looking to support a great local spot with good food and drinks, Anthony’s is the place to be. Highly recommend!“
