    The food was amazing, the service was excellent and the outdoor ambiance was great. We were on a trip visiting our daughter.

    I have always walked by but never actually have gone in until I decided to have my early birthday dinner here. I was so taken back by how cute the inside is. The staff were really friendly and the food came out hot and fresh. I started off with their soup of the day and it was very filling and a nice size portion. As well as their roasted chicken entree for $16 which was so large i had it for two more meals. I highly recommend.

    I was looking a nice place to eat with two children after 9 pm on the first NFL game night of the season. I was a little tired and honestly typed in another restaurant, drove there, parked and saw this spot thinking it was said restaurant. We walked in, was pleasantly greeted, and were seated upstairs. The decor is fresh and airy. It fits the aesthetic of Annapolis's boating history but modern. The menu offered plenty of options but as I am a vegetarian and the children were...children, we ordered simple dishes. Kale salad (can't remember the full name), loaded potato (minus bacon), Mac and cheese, sweet potato casserole, and wings. Everything came out together and was hot. The salad was flavorful and I'm shocked at how good the Mac and cheese and casserole was. We really enjoyed our food. My 8 year old wanted to speak with boss and the waitress brought Jake over. He shook hands with my 8 year old and they spoke. It was really nice of him to do that! I think this will be one of our spots since I have to venture into Annapolis for the foreseeable future.

    Orange crush

    I don't know why this isn't rated higher. The vibe is modern and open with loads of natural light streaming through the windows. It's also exceptionally clean (and yes, I went to the bathroom, and it was very clean and light). We both got the orange crush, which was so delightful and refreshing on this warm day. We split the 2 crab cake entree and the brisket tacos, had 3 sides. This is the real deal, the GOLD STANDARD for jumbo lump crab cakes. They were lightly seasoned, not overly, so the crab flavor stands out, not the seasoning. And that's how it should be. The brisket tacos were excellent, full of delicious smoked brisket that had zero grizzle/fat and 100% flavor with a bourbon sauce that perfectly accented the meat and with slaw that also perfectly joined to make a mouthful of happiness. Now for the sides: Mac and cheese, cheese grits, and sweet potato casserole. All sooooo delicious! M&C: macaroni was bathed in cheese and very tasty but not one bit greasy, don't know how they did that. Grits: I know that grits are typically coarsely ground corn, but these grits were smooth, oh so cheesy, again without feeling like I just had a barrel of greasy butter, they were OMG great. SP casserole: creamy and light, topped with beautiful burnt brown sugar. We had the bartender wait on us and he was delightful, funny, knowledgeable and professional all at once. Looking forward to returning to Adams on Fourth for another great dining experience!

    We checked this place out because I overheard some people talking about it! When we walked in, almost no one was here, but it seems like we beat the lunch crowd because suddenly the entire place filled up. The service was great and the food was delicious! Everything came out promptly and obviously the decor and overall vibe is very nice! Will return

    Hard avocado and a bite taken out of my key lime pie?? We've been meaning to check this place out for a while, and despite the headline I'm glad we did. The vibe is cool (although loud AF), but we did get used to the noise. The food is good, as we expected as frequent Adams Eastport customers, but there were a few missteps. I ordered the shrimp tacos, and they were good, but the avocado was VERY HARD. The entire top of the taco is covered in a nice helping of AVO, and we all know when an avocado is NOT ready to eat. Nonetheless, they served it up on my shrimp taco dish. I tried to cut it with my knife and spread over the tacos, but it really didn't help. After a few really good drinks, thanks to a great bartender, we decided to take a couple of desserts home. My key lime pie looked as if a small human had taken a bite out of it. I'm sure that's not the case (I hope), but why send a dessert home that looks as if there's an actual bite taken out of it. Overall, a decent experience, but I won't forget the rock hard avo, and the "bite" taken out of the key lime pie. These aren't difficult things to mange. I'm not spending $200 on a dinner for this level of half-way hospitality. The pie was excellent the

    The shrimp on the po' boy were huge!

    Ok ya'll their food was soooo good! I could eat a meal of just the sides alone! And probably will order that to go for lunch one day since it's right around the corner from my office. Quick service and looks super cool inside I was in lunch break so we are going back when I can try some cocktails. Highly recommend

    Average meal in Annapolis. Nothing of a wow factor. Service and ambience were good, attentive. Drinks and beer selection were typical bar menu nothing special. Server mentioned some items were same as other Adams restaurants but others were new. I had fish tacos with rockfish. Very messy, fish was luke warm, too much dressing. Others had pork sandwich and brisket sandwich which I was told were good flavorful sandwiches. Fries were cold and unsalted. Did not taste as hand cut in kitchen. May come back but there are other options. Inside is restaurant is very nice.

    We were here yesterday and loved it. The soft shell crab was cooked to perfection, and the white wine was an amazing accompaniment. We had the crab cakes with fried green tomato and it was so flavorful with roast corn plated on the bottom. The interior of the restaurant is light, spacious with lots of details in the art, wood work and light fixtures. A great place to have a drink, meet friends or have a Great meal. It is also very friendly! I will be back

Unfortunately, my most recent visit was a pretty big disappointment. From what I understand, they recently let go of their head chef and are currently running things with sous chefs, and based on this experience... it shows. On Saturday, I ordered the oyster BLT. I was told ahead of time it came with four oysters, which is fine -- if those oysters actually feel like the main event. On a sourdough sandwich, you expect something substantial -- big, meaty oysters that can hold their own. Instead, what showed up were four tiny oysters that were basically lost in the sandwich. I'm not exaggerating when I say you had to go searching for them. And for $28? That's where it really lost me. I have no problem paying Annapolis prices when the food backs it up, but this felt completely out of sync. The portion, the quality, the overall execution -- none of it justified the price. It honestly felt like something that should have been half the cost... at best. Beyond that, the sandwich just felt underwhelming overall. Nothing about it stood out, nothing felt intentional, and it definitely didn't live up to what this place used to deliver. It's frustrating because this used to be a spot I'd recommend without hesitation. Right now, though, it feels like they're charging premium prices while the kitchen is still trying to figure itself out. I really hope they get things back on track, because Annapolis needs places like this to be good. But as it stands, I'd think twice before ordering anything from their specials.

For food, I ordered the City Dock Pizza and my friend ordered the Beef Bolognese. The City Dock Pizza was good - thinner crust but plenty of flavor. The Beef Bolognese was a lighter colored sauce than I anticipated. The pasta was good and the sauce was also good but not what I would consider a traditional Bolognese. We did order the Cheesecake and a couple glasses of prosecco and they were sweet enough to put in a candle for my friend's birthday. The cheesecake is DEFINITELY recommended, it was very good and came as a suggestion. It did not disappoint. Overall, had a great time and would definitely come back and everyone was really friendly.

That restlessness works in its favor. The space is compact, almost disarming at first. Then it settles around you. There is a quiet intimacy to the room, the kind that feels less designed and more lived in. It leans closer to a welcoming home than a polished dining room, without losing its sense of purpose. The food carries that same balance. Thoughtful, seasonal, and just unpredictable enough to keep you paying attention. Cocktails follow suit, measured and deliberate, never an afterthought. For Annapolis, where good options are not exactly rare, this place still manages to separate itself. It belongs firmly in the top tier of the city's dining scene, and it earns that position every time it changes the menu and starts over again.
