    Crab Cake Sandwich
    Christina M.

    We stopped in without a reservation on a Saturday afternoon. They were hosting a large LGBTQ event which looked like a great time. We were seated quickly upstairs. It was a beautiful day and the doors were open. Once the construction next door is complete it will be an amazing view of the new park and waterfront. We ordered orange crushes which were good, my husband had the crab cake sandwich and I had the lobster roll. My husband said the crab cake was ok. Not terrible but not the best he's had. My lobster roll was good, again not the best or memorable. Our waitress was friendly and attentive. It's somewhere we'd return when in the area.

    We decided to take a day trip up to Annapolis out the city. We saw a sign stating this place was open and decided to try it out. It's further down the harbor a bit further from the other restaurants and the door is hidden a bit behind the construction but it's worth the find. We got the crab cakes and crab dip. It had a lot of lump crab and barely any filler, which is always a plus. They also had key lime pie, which is one of our favorites and the size was massive! Highly recommend.

    Bar scene -- upstairs closed for private event

    I've known this location since it served as the temporary restaurant for the AYC (post-fire). The off-water location continues to make it less attractive than other downtown options. At the time of this review, there is also major construction at the front of the property (as Annapolis builds a new waterfront park) ... So, we visited for happy hour pricing, rather than waterfront views. Still, the restaurant fell short :-( Happy Hour menu has been whittled down to non-premium beers (no IPA) though there are rail drinks and limited wines (no Rose). The upside is it's not that busy! The food options are okay -- the Tuna Stack was excellent, but the large Oysters Rockefeller were (tasty, but) served like warm and the crab dip was more dip than crab. Happy Hour prices are good, but not enough to keep me coming back for more. Maybe we'll be back post construction to see Annapolis' new waterfront park.

    Seared Scallops with coconut mango rice and vegetables medley

    We went on a beautiful Friday night and were seated quickly in the area that has the open windows, it was really nice because you could see the water from our table. Our waiter Hayes was awesome, he checked on us frequently and gave good recommendations. The crispy calamari we ordered for an appetizer was very good. For our entrees, we ordered the scallops that come with coconut mango rice and vegetables. I wasn't sure about the rice from the description but it was so good! It complemented the dish well. It was a very nice evening.

    We originally had our sights set on a different restaurant, but the wait time was too long. We came across this place and figured, why not give it a try even though the Google rating was 3.8. Here's how it went: 1. Atmosphere: The interior felt more like a banquet hall or ballroom than a cozy dining spot. The restaurant is right on the water, which was nice, but the overall vibe didn't make up for the lackluster experience. 2. Service: * Our waitress seemed either very new or poorly trained she couldn't answer basic questions about the menu. * I ordered a blueberry lemon drop, and she came back saying the bartender was confused and thought I wanted two drinks. That was strange any experienced bartender should know what a blueberry lemon drop is. 3. Food: * Crab Dip: Fluffy texture, but tasted mostly like cream cheese with barely any crab flavor. * Fish Tacos: Underwhelming. The fish tasted undercooked and lacked seasoning. * Onion Rings: I received two completely different types of onion rings. When I asked about it, the waitress said, "They must've been cooked hard," which made no sense. * Fish and Chips: The fries were actually pretty good, but the fish itself was bland and flavorless. 4. Overall Experience: * Atmosphere needs improvement. * Service was slow and inconsistent. * Food quality didn't live up to expectations. If you're in the area and want to try it for yourself, go ahead but for me, it's a one-and-done visit.

    The food was good, I really enjoyed it. I feel like the service was really good. Especially for the gentlemen that had us, because we we had a larger group. We all ended up having to sit upstairs because it was a lot of us. The drinks were not my favorite part as I couldn't get andonal Palmer, because something was going on with the tea. So I ended up having to get something else. But he worked with me to find something that I would like. I had a caesar salad and some bang bang shrimp. I will say that they had a large variety as far as the menu. My sister's had crab dip and some other pasta. Everyone ordered something different. And all of the food looked,taste and smelled good! The service was excellent and the manager Even came up and talked with us. The restaurant is in a akward area. But I like the fact that it is near the harbor. I would definitely go back! Very clean and overall good explore!

    "Blackened" Chicken Alfredo-more like Cajun
    Auna C.

    Given that I am from Baltimore, home of the Atlas Restaurant Group, I was expecting so much more from this Annapolis Atlas Restaurant Group establishment. I feel that in Baltimore the Atlas restaurants are held to an extremely high caliber, but Latitude 38 missed the mark and was nowhere near the level of its Baltimore sister restaurants. The first place the establishment fell short, was no AC on a 90° plus day. Therefore, only one portion of the huge restaurant was open and that was the main dining room area. The hallways HOT, the bathroom HOT, it was a scorcher in there. The place wasn't packed at all and there were a lot of staff just standing around. Our server was inattentive, he only took our order and then came back to check on us but by that time we needed the check. He spent a lot of time having casual conversation with a neighboring table-unprofessional. He also forgot about a drink we ordered and the food runner actually ended up serving us the drink. I ordered the blackened chicken Alfredo which was more of a Cajun chicken Alfredo. You'll be able to tell by my pic that the chicken definitely wasn't blackened. I'd suggest updating the description to Cajun not blackened. There was also way more chicken in the dish than pasta and only about 4 broccoli florets in the dish. The garlic bread which accompanied the dish was tasty. All in all, based on this experience, I don't see myself going back. Cheers to a great time!

    Bang Shrimp

    My wife and I came here on a Saturday for brunch. We both ordered the bottomless mimosas to drink. $12 for bottomless mimosas is an absolute steal! We ordered the Bang Shrimp as a starter and it was absolutely delicious! It was also the perfect size to share for 2 people. For entrees I ordered the crab and lobster omelette and my wife ordered the Maryland Benedict. Both of our entrees were absolutely amazing! The food was very good. Our waiter was very attentive at the beginning, but as more people came in we saw her less and less. It was not necessarily her fault though because it seemed like she was the only waiter. We also sat next to a window with a view of a huge construction site so that was a bit of an eye sore, especially when its advertised as being on the water. Our brunch experience was great and we would definitely come back.

    Double chocolate cake

    We wanted a really nice night out and this seamed like the place, right on the water, great menu, nice ambience. What really made it stand out was the staff. I asked if we could have a birthday desert for my best friend and he said that they didn't do them anymore like they used to. But then he asked his manager and she said she would do it! It made her so happy!!! And I really appreciate that they both went above and beyond just to make our night special. The host also made our party size work last minute which was great of him. I will say, I was not blown away by the food. Not the best place on the square food wise BUT the best vibe wise. Everything I ate here was good just nothing that BLEW me away like other places in the area. The crab cream soup was AMAZING and the painkiller was great. Just the crab cake was a bit lacking. Just a little nitpick.

    Strawberry Mojito
    Rae M.

    We had a little day date at Latitude 38 Waterfront and had a really nice time! Not only was the food great, the music playlist had me groovin' in my seat the entire time! I made reservations for an early Sunday dinner on Memorial Day weekend and since it was a holiday weekend, it was a task trying to find parking in the restaurant parking lot. Luckily after several circles around, we landed a spot. We were promptly seated as we approached the hostess stand. To be honest, the ambiance is less than desired. Pretty glum, if you ask me. We must be missing a floor, because the website had pictures of tables with white table cloths and looked pretty fancy, this was nothing like that. While sitting, I noticed the servers constantly dragged chairs and tables around the floor to accommodate the various parties to be seated (which was highly annoying). No one ever thought to actually pick up the chairs and tables, but whatever. The restaurant has a open and airy flow, so we were seated inside, but it was almost like we were outside. We were also overlooking the parking lot. Kind of a weird view. We ordered the crab balls for an appetizer and I ordered the seafood pasta. Both were phenomenal! I'd order both in a heartbeat! My pasta had giant shrimp, crab, and lobster in it. I also ordered mojitos, a strawberry and lime one. They were also pretty darn good. Luckily, it was an overcast day and not hot, nor humid. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to sit where we were seated, since it was such an open area. Service was solid and the price point was pretty standard for this area. I felt a bit overly dressed for this particular restaurant, since it's extremely casual, but the food was excellent. I'm certain we'll be back in the near future.

It's made in small batches and runs out quickly. I wasn't able to get a refill on this because they sold out!

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.

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.

Looking through the menu I really thought I had found a gem. However, not so much. The armadillo eggs were supposed to be fried brisket and cheese stuff jalapenos. which sounds amazing, but the filling was more like a puree of brisket and cheese, weird texture definitely no tender bits of brisket which was a shock. I would've like some chopped brisket in the filler, but the texture was way off. I went on to have the smokehouse sampler with Chicken, Brisket, and Pulled pork. I got Brussel sprouts and mac & cheese for sides. The brisket was dry and felt reheated. The chicken was tough and the breast was over cooked, and the pulled pork was dry and bland. The only thing saving this food was the sauces. For a smokehouse, the food doesn't have the flavor profile of smoked meat. My wife got the eastportorican, which is a cuban, but it was dry. There was only 1 server for all the tables, so I'm not sure if they were just under staffed and having a hard time, but you only get one chance at a first impression and this was not a good one. I actually had no complaints about our server either, she was doing better than most people would in her situation, and the customers were pretty patient.
