We really enjoyed our dinner on April 28, 2026, after a brisk walk from our downtown hotel. The…read morewait when we checked in was considerable, unless we wanted to eat "at the counter". It turned out to be the highlight, sitting at the "Chef's Counter" by the pizza station on the covered porch. (We are foodies, and always appreciate an opportunity to sit at a chef's table.) It was a fun spot with a great view of the action and personal interaction with two very hard working pizza chefs. We shared the beet salad, which was a nice start, followed by the skirt steak, the fungi pizza, and grilled asparagus. Everything was flavorful and well prepared. We also enjoyed a very nice Tempranillo with dinner. Our server, Stephanie, was excellent--friendly, attentive, and a pleasure to have taking care of us. Overall, a very enjoyable meal in a great setting. We'd be happy to return.

My wife and I went in tonight for the first time with high expectations based on the glowing…read morereviews. I left honestly stunned at how bad the food was. To be fair, the service was excellent. Our server was attentive and friendly, and that's the only reason this isn't one star. We ordered the barbecue chicken pizza and the pepperoni pizza, and they were easily the worst pizzas I've ever had. The crust tasted like cardboard: dry, crunchy with no snap or chew, and completely flavorless. The pepperoni tasted like nothing. There was barely any sauce, and both pies were flat and bland from edge to center. I have never left a restaurant without finishing my meal, and tonight I didn't even try. The potato pancake appetizer was no better. It had a sour aftertaste that made us push it aside after a bite or two. I genuinely don't understand the hype. The staff deserve a kitchen that matches their effort, but based on this visit I can't recommend the food, and I won't be back for pizza.

Their wine selection is phenomenal and perfectly complements the meal. The restaurant is consistently busy, so I highly recommend making a reservation.

The wait staff are always friendly, attentive, and happy to offer recommendations. If you're ever in the Annapolis, MD area and appreciate delicious food paired with an outstanding wine selection, this is definitely a restaurant worth visiting.

It's made in small batches and runs out quickly. I wasn't able to get a refill on this because they sold out! Definitely worth a try if you're a kombucha lover For appetizers we tried the crispy kale, preserve pickles, and pickled green tomato salad. The kale was the favorite, hands down. It was so perfectly crispy with the most delicious cumin yogurt dollops. I could have eaten 3 more bowls of this! You have to try it The pickles and tomato salad were about equally good. Pickles were fresh and crunchy. Not too sour. Salad was also fresh and paired well with the goat cheese crumbles. For mains I can only speak to what I ordered which was the brunch burger. It was delicious! Ingredients were high quality, egg was perfectly runny, and overall everything about this burger was very well balanced. My friends also enjoyed their entrees and there were no complaints!

We went for Sunday brunch, a party of 5. We had reservations and were seated immediately. The…read morerestaurant is a small, cozy space with open windows. It was very pleasant. None of us had ever been there, so we were in the dark about the food and everything else. Our waiter was efficient and competent, but we all found him aloof. It would have been nice to have a smile and a willingness to describe the dishes. We ordered a variety of dishes, and we all agreed that the crispy kale was a big hit. I wish I had taken pictures of the food. It was all good, including the Bloody Mary and the cold brew. Deducted a star for the waiter's attitude, not having more specific egg dishes, avocado toast (I was so craving it), or espresso drinks. Overall, we loved it, and we all look forward to going back, especially knowing what to expect-and what not to.

The bar was loud and lively around happy hour, while the patio was much quieter and gave us a more relaxed place to enjoy dinner. I wasn't very familiar with the Italian wines, so I asked our waiter for a recommendation. He brought me a sample before I ordered a full glass, which was a thoughtful touch. His recommendation was excellent. My partner ordered the Pineapple Tiki Old Fashioned and she loved it. The filet mignon sliders were delicious. My Black Linguine Arrabbiata had a little spicy kick and was very good, with calamari, clams, mussels, crab meat, and spicy marinara. The one disappointment was the tiramisu, which neither of us cared for. Our waiter was helpful and attentive throughout the meal without making us feel rushed. Between the food, thoughtful service, and comfortable outdoor seating, we had a very enjoyable evening. The lively interior is a good option if you want more energy, but the patio was perfect for a quieter meal in the beautiful weather. We'd happily return, but we'd probably choose a different dessert next time.

Meatball MediterraneanThree juicy, tender meatballs that were well executed. The olive-oil-soaked…read morecrostini was the perfect complement--crusty on the outside, soft on the inside, and ideal for soaking up every bit of sauce. The feta chunks neither added nor detracted from the dish. A dollop of mascarpone or ricotta would have given it an even richer, meltier finish. Heck even a whipped feta would've added more depth. The blend of meats was outstanding with a pleasant kick of spice, while the mellow, flavorful marinara had a thinner consistency that made it perfect for crostini dipping. Lobster RavioliThe sauce was unquestionably the star of the show. The pasta tasted homemade with a wonderful texture. Unfortunately, the lobster seemed either overcooked or not at its freshest, as it had a noticeable fishy flavor and a chewy texture. The fresh lump crab, however, made for an excellent garnish and added a bright, sweet contrast. Smoked Pineapple Rum Old FashionedThe pineapple-infused rum came through nicely, giving the cocktail great flavor. The smoke, however, was much more subtle than I expected. I knew it had been smoked because the bartender presented it with a plastic smoking device over the glass. I was anticipating the more dramatic wood-smoke presentation under a glass dome that I'm accustomed to. It was also missing the classic Luxardo or maraschino cherry garnish, and without any garnish at all, it felt like it was missing that final finishing touch. OverallWhile it didn't quite reach Feed My Soul status, everything was genuinely good. An added bonus is that it's within walking distance of Maryland Hall, making it a perfect stop before or after a show. ServiceFriendly staff and impressively fast service. The food arrived much quicker than expected.

The bread probably was from supermarket and it wasn't chive butter but green onion. OG Caesar was basically wedge salad with heavy pesto oil, overall oily and salty. Lomi Lomi Salmon... Not good.
