I recently celebrated a friend's birthday at Chart House, and it was a wonderful experience overall. We had a party of eight, and our server, Jake, was phenomenal. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the menu, answered everyone's questions with patience, and was especially helpful navigating dietary restrictions. One of my favorite parts of the evening was the beverage cart, it made dinner feel like a show! We ordered the mojito flight, and every flavor was refreshing and delicious. For appetizers, I had the crab stack with mango and avocado, which was fresh, light, and full of flavor. For my entrée, I ordered the Eye of the Ribeye with the Pave Parmesan potatoes. Everything was cooked well, though I did think some of the dishes throughout the table could have used a little more seasoning. Once we added a bit of salt, though, the flavors really came to life. The highlight of the meal was dessert. The seasonal crème brûlée was absolutely to die for, and the blood orange flavor was easily my favorite part of the entire dinner. Between the attentive service, fun drink presentation, beautiful atmosphere, and delicious food, this was a great place to celebrate a special occasion. I'll definitely be back! read more

From the moment we arrived, the service was top-tier. The staff was attentive, professional, and genuinely welcoming throughout our entire visit. The food was equally impressive; the Kim Chee Calamari, Prime Rib Hash & Eggs, Cornmeal Buttermilk Johnny Cakes, and the Wagyu Bacon Burger were all absolutely delicious. It is clear they prioritize quality and attention to detail, as every dish was cooked perfectly. Between the exceptional food, hospitality, and the incredible view of the water, it was a fantastic experience. read more

We dropped in for Happy Hour (fyi you must sit in the bar area!) about 15 min before it ended, but we were still able to get our order in. The food was absolutely phenomenal. I LOVED the caviar potatoes & mini crab cakes. They came out so fast and were fresh. The margarita was also one of my favorite ones I've had. Unfortunately sitting at the bar meant our server was making drinks for the entire restaurant, so getting our check took longer than even getting our food. It was pretty loud inside the restaurant, partially due to music but also just sitting at the bar comes with its own noise of the hustle and bustle. I'd love to go back and sit somewhere with a view of the water/boats. read more

We came here to celebrate a birthday and the restaurant was even more beautiful in person! It was the week after the snow storm, so the streets around the restaurant and parking was difficult to get to. The boats sitting on the water were even frozen. Despite the freezing weather, the restaurant was still pretty filled and had a great vibe. When we got to our table the waiter checked my coat and gave me a ticket, to get it later. Our table was seated right next to a beautiful fire pit, which gave an amazing warm temperature. The views across the water were breath taking, through the tall glass windows. There were high ceilings and many details throughout the restaurant that were stunning! Started dinner with the Oysters, followed by the Shellfish Linguine with sautéed mushrooms as an entree. I got the Roasted Lamb Chops which came with the tri-color carrots, and parsnip purée. It all tasted great, however there wasn't enough for leftovers. The waiter brought out a tasty piece of red velvet cake that said "Happy Birthday," which was much appreciated. Service was attentive and kind from all of the staff. read more

I have been here twice & will say, the food was excellent. But the service was not great. Once with friends, we waited quite a bit to be served and just recently with our daughter for her 18th birthday. She wanted crab legs. They were impressive, but came with no utensils to open them. The food was brought out by different staff & had to wait for the waiter, who did not come back to check on us. I had to get his attention and finally received the cracker & small fork so she could enjoy her dinner. The place is beautiful & the food great, but when you have to wait & food gets cold, paying a premium price, I'll have to think again about going. read more

Had the pleasure of dining here on my birthday. It's weird, because I haven't been to Annapolis to eat in like forever... lately it's been Baltimore, Columbia... but Annapolis wasnt on my radar. The person who took me out lives in Eastern Shore so this was our middle ground. At first glance you'll think the parking situation is horrible, but they actually have a parking lot next to the restaurant. When you walk in you see the semi open Kitchen concept and the nice bar. In the dining room they have it situated where you have a nice view from almost every point. They have a great cocktail menu and offer a service where they make drinks table side. I tried the Old Fashioned.. it had a truffle in it . For appetizers I had the Crispy Escargot and my friend had the Ahi Poke, that was a pretty large portion that can be shared or even eaten as an entree. For the mains, my friend had the Seabass, and I had the Shellfish Linguine. The Linguine was good, the server removed my plate before I was done so I didn't finish. And for dessert BIRTHDAY CAKE! I feel like this is the perfect date night spot or Holiday Office party place. read more

We received the best service ever from our waiter Terry. He was enthusiastic and personable.

I never got to dine here and never ever would want to in the future. Evelyn and her manager on 2/21/26 treated me and my guest terribly. We had a reservation time that they would not honor. WE WERE WITHIN THE GRACE PERIOD. The manager was extremely rude and condescending. Evelyn took no accountability at all, they did not try to accommodate in any fashion. It was my 50th birthday dinner and with my long sequin gown and crown it was apparent. Evelyn and the manager completely ruined my Birthday experience. I dined at my favorite place and left them a stellar review as I do for good service and atmosphere. I hope this establishment would realize how one experience can impact your business overall. Choose wisely when deciding where to spend your money & time. read more

Service was excellent but food hit or miss, especially for the price. Avoid the desserts at all costs - our cake was burnt and a very small portion for a large price - they don't have a pastry chef. Prime Rib was tough - tasted like meat had been frozen. Sea bass was also not from fresh. The only good things on the menu were anything made from crab - the crab cakes, the crab tower. read more

Came to Chart House Prime expecting prime... Yelp really needs to add a 3.75 star option . This place was better than 3.5 stars but wasn't quite a full 4 for me. We started with the crab dip and that was good! The valentine couple's surf & turf special, shareable ribeye and tomahawk were all sold out! This was very disappointing. The entree - we ordered the prime rib and eye of the ribeye. Both were cooked great. The creamed spinach was flavorful and creamy. The truffle fries? No complaints, crispy and tasty. Now let's talk about the lobster risotto... because what happened there? Risotto is supposed to be creamy, rich, and comforting. This was dry, like it had been sitting under a heat lamp and lobster was dried out. Service was excellent and ambiance is luxury rustic. Overall, some items were good, but that lobster risotto was a major letdown, especially for the price point. I would revisit but will stay away from the lobster risotto. read more

So the atmosphere was very nice very intimate which I assume is what they were going for. The service was great the server was friendly accommodating and personable. I got the wok friend fish and it was good. I do wish the fish had maybe a sweet and sour sauce to go on it or maybe fajitas vegetables to make it pop. But as is the fish was still good. The vegetables were fresh, crisp, and seasoned well. The sticky rice was just sticky rice. We also got the seafood tower which great the poke tuna was fresh and melted in your mouth good. All and all a great meal with a great view of the water. If you have a date and want to impress them or want an intimate restaurant to celebrate an anniversary or valentine's day this is a good spot. read more

Chart House Prime - Wok Fried Chilean Seabass with mixed vegetables and sticky rice - Seafood Near Me - Annapolis, Maryland

I absolutely love this place for happy hour, meeting friends, special occasions and date night. The ambiance on the water is alluring. I will say everytime I come here, I must get the grilled and chilled shrimp, my favorite Most recently I visited for my birthday. The service is always top tier. We of course had the grilled and chilled shrimp, the lamb chops and the whole bronzino. Everything was absolutely delicious. I will say in the fall/winter on the water sitting close to the windows can be quite brisk. I definitely recommend a reservation as this place is pretty popular. Parking is free, but can be difficult at times. read more

We just finished dinner and had a mixed experience. I started with happy hour, which was great. However, the steak was overcooked by far. The manager claimed it was "slightly" overcooked, but that was a lie. He then offered us dessert, which was so bad that I wouldn't feed it to a wild animal. I'll insert a picture below. If you want to compensate me, please offer a drink or the bone marrow butter instead of insulting me with this terrible dessert. Needless to say, we left extremely disappointed. read more

We visited Chart House Prime in Annapolis to celebrate a birthday, and it was my second time dining there. My first visit was for happy hour with my boyfriend--though good luck catching it, because people literally line up for it. Knowing that, we opted for dinner this time, and it was absolutely the right choice. We had a wonderful evening and another great experience at CHP. The nautical‑rustic ambiance paired with the beautiful waterfront views made it feel special, and our server was excellent. The entire staff delivered great customer service. read more

We arrived at approximately 8:15 PM for a birthday celebration and were immediately met by the manager on duty, who did not introduce himself and was discourteous throughout the interaction. Rather than welcoming us, he immediately informed us that some members of our party were not in compliance with the dress code due to wearing joggers and shorts. Although we understood the restaurant's dress code policy, our family members made an effort to comply by returning to their vehicle to change clothes. Despite their attempt to address the concern, the manager still refused to accommodate them. What was particularly disappointing was the lack of professionalism and hospitality shown during the situation. At no point did he offer alternatives, such as allowing the affected guests to sit in the bar area, where we later learned the dress code requirements were different. The situation became even more uncomfortable when another Black couple entered the restaurant and the manager accused them of smelling like marijuana. He appeared to associate them with our party, despite them having no connection to us whatsoever. Later, he acknowledged that they were not part of our group and specifically stated that our party did not smell like marijuana, but the other couple did. Regardless, the fact that this assumption was made and communicated in front of us was inappropriate, embarrassing, and unprofessional. As a result of the entire experience, we chose to leave the restaurant. What should have been a special birthday celebration for my sister-in-law turned into an embarrassing and upsetting experience for our family. I felt disrespected, singled out, and disappointed by the manner in which we were treated. I understand that restaurants have policies and standards that must be enforced. However, those policies should be communicated with courtesy, professionalism, and respect. Unfortunately, that was not our experience. read more

This was our second anniversary at Chart House. They made the experience special for us in a very authentic way. The food is great of course, but our server made the entire experience very special. Alex was not only very informed on the various dishes, her recommendations were very helpful. The best part was how real she was as a person and connected with us in a way that showed she cared. It was a very real and personal experience. read more

Hi guys. TLDR: Avoid this place. More details to come. We were sat down and waited a long time for our food.. around 30ish mins to get bread.. yes, I said bread. Our food took longer. While we were waiting on our food, the flame on our "fireplace?" went out..it started blowing cold air, it was Valentine's day this year so we're talking like the 27 degree air outside..not cool (well..I guess overly cool..get it? ahah.. anyways) The manager told us he'd start it up again..spoiler, that never happened. It was cold the whole meal. Moving on, our meal did arrive. I had Lobster, Steak, and mashed potatoes, they were good. My wife got the Risotto, and scallops..they were solidly okay. B+ on the food because of risotto and lobster..the steak was really good though. I highly reccomend it if you ignore this review and go anyways. The Ambiance was pretty loud..and I can't stress this enough, it was COLD. I just wanted to be reseated at one of the empty tables around me with a flame or farther away from windows or doors, but this was too big an ask apparently..I honestly think this place was okay..but not $220 okay. I would probably not even be writing this review if it was just $200 or so. I don't really write these reviews often but I go to places like this pretty regularly so I really hope you take this seriously and AVOID this place and not feel robbed like I did. Cheers Yelp family add: I wish I read the Yelp reviews before I came to this place ugh. lol read more

I came here with a small party, and it was lovely. The views, the restaurant, the food, and staff were great. The oysters were especially lovely, and we had a few of the sushi rolls. I went when it was late, but would love to come earlier in the day to enjoy more views of the water. read more

We arrived 10 minutes early for our 6:45pm reservation. Felt odd that they had us wait until 6:45 passed to get seated. Oh well. After a brief 10 minute wait we were seated at a table adjacent to the open fire pit. It was definitely warm. I used the large wine menu to deflect the heat from me. Our waitress Alex was superb. She was on top of every detail and didn't miss a beat. We didn't need to remind her of anything. Onto the food. I had the 10pz filet and creamed spinach. Both were very good. Wifee had the Lobstertail and rated it 9 out of 10. She said although it was slightly overcooked it was very flavorful. Mixed veggies were phenomenal and perfectly seasoned. And again, did I say Alex was superb?! Top notch restaurant in Annapolis IMHO. read more

First time at Chart House in Annapolis. We had a gift certificate from a friend, which is the main reason we went. My wife and I both had the 10oz prime rib - medium rare. Both came out grayish-brown and bland. There was nothing special or enjoyable about it. The dish comes with garlic potatoes which had way too much garlic and was inedible. We also ordered the crispy brussel sprouts which were overly sweet and crushed - not handled very well. Even the bread was boring. The only item that was ok was the Ceasar salad. On the other hand, the service was very good. We liked our waitress. However, we won't be back. Yes, the view was nice, but not even close to being worth the $165 for two (includes tip). read more

Well, I'll make it quick and not so sweet. The service was horrible. Waited 1/2 hr for drinks and menus. Another hr for appetizers and another 45 minutes for our meals. Arrived 1:15 left at 4:45.

We've been eating here for years but the last few visits have been less than stellar. Will probably be our last visit here. read more

Chart House was the perfect place for us to have our last dinner of 2024! The ambiance was jammin with great tunes and lots of people out. I ordered an old fashioned to get things started and wow was it a generous pour! We decided to start with the cream of crab soup and butternut squash salad. The soup had lots of lump crab and was a great start. We then had the eye of eye the ribeye and Chilean sea bass. Wow!!! The sea bass was cooked and seared to perfection with perfect flakiness and the lobster risotto was amazing. And the ribeye was cooked and seared with a nice char on outside and perfectly medium rare on the inside. The mashed potatoes was delicious and nice and garlicky. And to finish was had the key like pie and mini lava cake. There were even fireworks over the water at 9pm right as we were starting our main course. Amazing night!!! read more

My wife and I recently brought my parents here to celebrate my dad's retirement, and I still think about how incredible the experience was. We were served by Gio, and from the moment we sat down, everything felt unhurried and thoughtful. We never once felt rushed or overlooked--in fact, he made us feel like the only table in the restaurant. Gio has that rare mix of attentiveness, warmth, and genuine presence that instantly puts you at ease. He took the time to talk with us, celebrate this milestone with my dad, and made the entire evening feel personal. As we were leaving, Gio realized it was drizzling outside and offered to walk my dad to the car with an umbrella. We initially declined, but he insisted in the kindest way--and sure enough, he walked alongside my dad, making sure he stayed completely dry. It was a gesture we'll never forget. It really showed how much care goes into the experience here. The assistant manager, Akeem, also stopped by our table to acknowledge my dad's retirement and made him feel like the coolest person in the room. You could tell how much that meant to my parents, and how genuine the care was from the entire team. This wasn't our first time here--my wife and I usually come for our anniversaries--and it's exactly why we chose this restaurant for such an important family moment. We'll absolutely be back and can't wait to return. If you're looking for a place where the food is excellent but the service is truly next level, this is it. P.S. Sorry to have taken so long to write the review. read more

Food, top quality from the starters to the main course. Teaa (waiters) explained everything making this an unforgettable experience. Orderded the Infused and Fogged drink and let's say more like an experience. The drink was properly made, flavored, and just as described, smoothed the gyn to the point of enjoyment. Ambiance, area and plenty space between parties, allowed for a great time, lighting and the view was just as expected, seaworthy. Will return for sure, that Clam Chowder was something especial. read more
