Menu focuses on both Chesapeake and west coast oysters. They also have a variety of salads, seafood and libations. We ordered a dozen oysters (4 different Chesapeake ones, 3 of each). They came with a vinaigrette and a spicy cocktail sauce. Server explained each one to us. They were fresh, clean tasting and delicious! We also got the smoked whitefish dip. It was creamy and smoky, topped with caviar and came with flatbread style sesame crackers. It was light and savory. My companion ordered the tuna sashimi special. It had melt in your mouth toro marinated in yuzu and sesame sauce. It was topped with seaweed and came with a side of kimchi aioli. It was definitely the star dish. Will need to come back to try other seafood dishes and drinks.

Uhmmmmmm... We…read moreordered some oyster, and they were out of one type, replacing to something else without asking us. Maryland oyster was pretty good but clam was very oceany and sandy. Whitefish Dip was fine but way too much mayo than the fish. Bread & Butter was disappointing. It shouldn't be something they charge. 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. Hamachi probably was the best thing. Happy hour drinks was the best thing.

These were complimented by a starters including oysters, a salad and a side of Brussel Sprouts. HITS: Fish & Grits, Oysters

Catfish Sandwich - not bad at least fish was moist. Steak - it was fine, overly dressed with sauce feel like they are covering something. Snakehead Corn Risotto - the fish was very dry. Not sure why this place is popular..

The hostess was helpful and explained that you can get the tiki drinks from both the Pearl and Ponche menus at the tiki bar upstairs, so that is what we did. It was 6pm and still pretty quiet. My partner ordered the caipirinha and I got the Baja blast. We both agreed that they were solid but not amazing. He also ordered a pour from their decently long rum list, which he enjoyed. I would come back if in the neighborhood to try more of their drinks.

Unless you get there super-early at 4, before the 5pm dinner opening, and then wait in the shorter line. Unless you are having lunch there, and in that case I am guessing it may be the same, ie getting in the cue at 11ish before 12pm. I have had the Spotted Pig pizza and whatever enticing pie specialities they have rotated seasonally. I usually opt for the truffle oil or balsamic glaze on our pizza. I have never needed to tweak their delightful presented ingredients combinations. Their pizzas are that outstanding. Take for instance, a recent summer pizza from the Chef's own garden: "The Cuba Libra pizza ...This white pizza features mozzarella and parmesan cheeses, complemented by pork confit, chile-roasted jicama, pickled red onions, cilantro, and fresh mint." I'd never crave mint on a pizza but if Eastport's Vin 909 is serving it, I'm probably going to enjoy it. If you are the more traditional type, another seasonal pizza featured is the Yankee Pie: "family recipe crust with tomato sauce, mozzarella, ricotta cheese, summer sausage, marinated red peppers and oregano." And yes, please, to another summer, perfect-in-Annapolis feature: "Vaquero Clams: Steamed local little neck clams, English ale, bacon, grilled poblano peppers, garlic guajillo butter, fresh oregano, epazote and cilantro." I love the gigantic Vin 909 featured arugula salad. I also miss their divine french press coffees and Butterscotch Pudding with caramelita points. A little known fact: when I was there, you could purchase extra caramelita points for $2 or $3. Vin 909 is truly the best dining in Annapolis -- or Naptown -- as folks like me say.

We went to Seasalt for a date night and really enjoyed it…read more We started with six oysters, fried oysters, and ceviche. For dinner, we had the clam pasta, scallops, and mushrooms, and everything we ordered was excellent. We finished with the bread pudding for dessert. We also tried the Seasalt Daiquiri, Barrel Aged Manhattan, and Old Maryland Fashioned and enjoyed all three. The atmosphere was great for a date night. It is nice without feeling too formal, and the service was great throughout the evening. This was an easy 5-star experience for us. The food, drinks, service, and atmosphere were all great, and we'll definitely be back.

Everything tasted great for the most part. Service was great as well. The outdoor buffet cookout was $20 tickets were purchased on eventbrite.

We really enjoyed this event. We would like to go back and check out the other drinks on the menu as well as the food. Definitely bookmarked this spot for a return visit. There is a parking garage about three blocks away. We paid $12.00 for about three hours. Not bad at all.

All housed in the historic Capital Hotel, newly renovated in November of 2022. The atmosphere here is immaculate. It is a must see when enjoying the sights of Annapolis. My girlfriend and I stopped in on a Thursday afternoon after touring the State House. We each ordered the Monkey Smoke (Penicillin), and she ordered a small plate with avocado and lump crabmeat, which we ordered just in time as the kitchen closed between 3 and 4. The standout of the day for me was the old fashioned, made with plum bitters. One of the best old fashioneds I've ever had. The servers were all very friendly and quick. We will definitely come back the next time we're in town, and definitely recommend this to others.

Her storytelling was absolutely captivating -- she brought every tale to life with incredible detail, fun facts, and just the right touch of spooky flair. You could tell she really loves what she does, and that made the whole evening so engaging. We also loved that our tour included stops at three fantastic bars, each with its own private room where we could relax, enjoy a drink, and listen to more stories -- it made the night feel extra special and intimate. The highlight for us was the basement of the Maryland Inn -- that space was simply picture-perfect and full of atmosphere! If you're looking for a fun, fascinating, and slightly spooky night out in Annapolis, we can't recommend Kasey enough. She made our Halloween unforgettable!
