We were sat immediately, and the staff was genuinely friendly, warm, and clearly knew their stuff.

Leo has only gotten better since their opening a few years ago ... this was our second visit (we…read moredined previously the week of the opening). Really impressed with the elevated food at Leo - ambiance was elegant and service friendly. Though we sat at a table, we'd note that bar looked great! We ordered the (Snakehead) Fish & Grits .. excellent dish and great flavor profile - you'll love it! Also got the scallops at the recommendation of the server - very nice. These were complimented by a starters including oysters, a salad and a side of Brussel Sprouts. HITS: Fish & Grits, Oysters

We didn't have to wait long as a family with a baby was about to leave. I looked around and the space is modern and clean. There is a bar area that is well lit and inviting if I was dining by myself. The menu isn't your typical Italian menu. There was a chicken fried tofu appetizer, steak frites, smash burgers and snakehead. I don't know what snakehead is so ai went with the catfish carbonara, my friend had the steak frites and my other friend had the Brussel sprouts appetizer and pear salad. We also shared a bottle of red wine. Our dessert was a deconstructed sundae with cannoli bits and delicious. Our server was Brendan and he was fantastic. He answered our questions and checked in and chatted with us for a bit. Highly recommend this restaurant.

Trust me, it's worth it. They've got a small bar area that seats about 4-6 people, which is where I sat, and honestly that's the move if you like a lively vibe. Now let's talk about the pizza--amazing. Fresh, flavorful, and one of those meals where you catch yourself still thinking about it later. I enjoyed every bite and could've easily gone for another round. Overall, this place delivers: good energy, good food, good people. Definitely a spot you want to keep in your rotation.

I'm glad we narrowed down our group size because 2 and 4 top tables os the setup it has. We had many menu items. I thought after appetizers I'd be full after sharing 1 pizza. Nope, needed a second.

We settled into our table and were welcomed by Shannon, our server. (There was a little confusion about this, but it straightened out.) The restaurant is bright and separated from the well-stocked bar. I had a Sagamore rye neat, and B ordered a glass of the Rioja. If there are oysters on the menu, you know I'll order them. There was a pretty good selection, and I opted for a half dozen Rappahanock oysters. They were excellent, sweet and briny. We each ordered a Caesar salad, but Shannon advised us that it was large enough to be shareable. More than enough. B ordered the pasta with clams, and I choose the Seafood chowder. The chowder was delicious, but B found the pasta to be too peppery for her tastes. Worse, three of the clams were unopened. We brought this to Shannon's attention, and she offered to put in a new order, but B demured, as she was full. At this point, Owner John Hogan came over to the table to chat. He told us the clams would be taken off the bill, and gave us a gift card, hoping we'd return. He stayed at our table for nearly 30 minutes, and we had a wonderfully engaging conversation with him. We will definitely be going back.

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.

5/5 -- Incredible Halloween Ghost Tour with Kasey!…read more We had an amazing experience on the Annapolis Ghost Tour with Kasey on Halloween night! 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!
