    Espresso Martini
    Alisa H.

    We love the speakeasy room vibe. The bar tenders are very conversational if you want them to be. It's small but perfect and the outside seating is very cozy. The service is good the food is so perfect to go with cocktails, appetizer size small plates the flaming filet we loved and the oysters Rockefeller are worth ordering again.

    Love this conservative owned restaurant! Been here a few times and never disappointed! Drinks are great and we got the charcuterie board and sat outside!

    Bartender was very good and knowledgeable. Cocktails were creative and tasty. It has a cool vibe and nice location on state circle. Would go back for sure

    Hidden jem If you want a great drink this is the place to go in Annapolis. Came with a group of 6 and drinks were ordered both from the menu and custom And nothing disappointed. I had the penicillin and the old fashioned and both were excellent

    Great place! Vibes are immaculate! Great cocktail bar. They can make anything you could dream of. Ryan is the best bartender I've ever had. Must go

    Omar! My new best friend! We told you we'd be back and back we were. Stopped down to the Parley Room for my buddy's bday. I was a little uneasy on our way; I'm typically more of a beer and fries type of person. We had a fantastic time. The place looks fancy from all the drinks, but I definitely didn't feel like I needed to be dressed up or anything (I did wear a polo and jeans). It was great weather, we sat out on the patio. They had some good, upbeat music playing in the background, loud enough that you could catch the beat but low enough that it didn't interfere with conversation. Food was good, but I'm more of a simple guy when it comes to food so it was good. Drinks were awesome. Omar guilted me into ordering a cocktail and not just a "mule"; I can get that anywhere... :) The O.G. was really good. I actually stuck with that. Omar was awesome, great dude, great personality. He really made the afternoon a lot of fun. We left after a couple hours and walked around Annapolis; and got dinner (our waitress elsewhere left a lot to be desired compared to Omar). Towards the evening we were trying to figure out what to do next and decided we'd head back to see if Omar was indeed still working. We saw him as we walked up and decided to quick jump back to our same open table. The shock on his face when we yelled his name from "our" table was hilarious. We had a few more drinks and then ended with an expresso martini and a chocolate creme brulee. That was fantastic! Thanks for the great time! We'll make sure we check your schedule before we come back.

    I love a good speakeasy, and Parley Room is an excellent one. There are three important elements to a good speakeasy; craft cocktails, intimate atmosphere, and discreet location, and Parley Room hits all three. We tried the Fig Old Fashioned and the OG. I generally use the Old Fashioned or the Manhattan as my baseline measurement as a quality control for any bar, and they did not disappoint. Great mixology and attention to detail in the flavors. The place is small (as any proper speakeasy will be) but packed. In spite of that, the service staff was attentive and... just wow, really quick at turning out the orders without dropping quality.

    Swanky speakeasy with great mixologist and good vibes. I had an old fashioned which was really good. Tried a scallop trio and they all packed a different flavor. They close pretty early (9:30). Service was amazing btw!

    Loved the food at Parlay Room! We started with a couple beautiful craft cocktails, Angels & Demons and the Parley Crush (?), both were great. Then the cream brûlée goat cheese app, OMG this was amazing! We shared the scallops and filet, both very good. The portions are not large, this was fine for my friend and I. Had my hubs been with us he would have been disappointed. We however were not! Highly recommend! And the bar tender was adorable and not hard on the eyes

    We walked in and were greeted right away. It's self seating and since it was a Thursday night we had no issue getting a spot. They also have outdoor seating too. The ambiance is a modern look with a touch of art deco. We ordered cocktails before the food and they were made pretty fast. Nice presentation of the cocktails, they both tasted great. The penicillin was made just right. We order the octopus and the goat cheese brûlée. The Octopus was good, maybe a tad tough. Great sauces and a tasty olive tapenade. The goat cheese brûlée was amazing! Honestly it's a dessert but amazing! Overall this is a must visit when in Annapolis! Cheers!

    Cute and Simple front Entrance. It looks like a house

    Tonight was my second visit! Same waitress and same bartenders I am a huge fan. The prices are so fair! Less than 13 bucks gets you a strong cocktail! I have tried the toasted marshmallow espresso, the OG was my favorite! It's lime and sneaks up on ya....before I knew it was on my 3rd drink and feeling loose! My hubby and I also landed on some yummy appetizers, I did the Brie and pita breads triangles. It was great, and you can tell it was fresh. This place is in the heart of Annapolis and seems to be doing well. I do hope they can grow, the space is tight, but it's still managed to work in our favor. We just asked two ladies if we could join them, shout to cool ladies who let us sit with them. We offered to get them a drink or an app and they said no. Either way in the span of 2 days I have visited this place twice. The service and the drinks are fantastic! Keep it up Parley Room

    Great cocktails and small plates with an updated vibe in a historic building. The cocktail making is entertaining with fire!

    A very historical bar with great ambiance and character. The specials on alcohol and food is well worth the visit!

    Girls' day turned girl evening and rightfully so. Netflix and chill with a house full of ladies…read more When the stomach started to growl it was easy for the token private chef friend to make the easiest and best recommendation. Full On Craft Eats. The Toast online ordering system was easy to navigate and adorned with pictures of every menu item. I could not get past the onion rings on the starter menu hoping they would taste as good as they looked. My friend offered to split the Slammin Salmon sandwich and onion rings since she has had it before and never finished the entire thing. I took her up on it and the order was placed. A quick ask for mom to grab it on the way home and the food made its way back quickly. WOW is all I can say. When you order food to go there is a level of expectation that it will not be as good as it is at the restaurant, especially fries and onion rings. But in this instance WOW. Talk about food that travels well. Fourteen minutes away and the food was still warm, the onion rings were so crisp, and the garlic and dill aioli and onion ring sauce were just right. The Slammin Salmon was served on ciabatta bread that was not too soft not too hard, with salmon cooked perfectly. The lemon dill aioli was a game changer so much that my friend's advice to order extra was well received and committed to memory. The onion rings lived up to the hype, cooked perfectly with a crust I cannot even explain. The kind you bite into without losing the entire onion from the breading. Dip it into the sauce and you have a match made in heaven. Half the sandwich was more than enough but the next day I would have loved some leftovers. Now for the extra razzle dazzle. I left to visit a friend in DC and sent him the menu, shared my experience and he was locked in to try. Online ordering was closed since they were closing at 10pm so I called as a last-ditch effort since the anticipation was already there. The nicest most warm individual answered ten minutes before closing and was more than happy to take my order. She even made sandwich recommendations. I quickly arrived at a shopping center that was easy to get in and out of. Walking in you immediately arrive at the counter and takeout area to your left with a nice bar area a short walk past on the right. The cooks and wait staff were having the best time using the 6/7 saying that was all over social media late last year. They were considerate when they noticed I was in the restaurant, but I assured them I loved their energy. I see why the food is so good because the energy shows it was made with great vibes and laughter all around. As I grabbed the bag to leave the hostess stopped me to add another fork and extra napkins since I would need them to add the pickled veggies on my sandwich. Such a nice touch. Thirty plus minutes to DC and the food still did not need to be reheated. The Mai Thai sandwich was a hit with flavors that married well and the onion rings delivered again. The Spicy Thai wings were good for wings but typical. They had a lot to compete with. Full On Craft Eats Annapolis, not to be confused with Rockville, is an experience you will want to repeat again and again. Good food fast that travels well (yes that is a thing). A great addition to any table worth gathering at. I did it twice in one day!!

    I can't even begin to describe what a great experience this was!…read more Service was amazing, got sat next to a cool couple that eats here regularly so they gave us the scoop on good eats, & the onion rings were literally trip best thing I've ever put in my mouth. 10/10 WILL BE COMING BACK!!!

    Relaxed and friendly oyster bar in the heart of Annapolis with such a welcoming vibe and nautical…read moredecor (old photos of sailors). Waitstaff is very friendly and accommodating. 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.

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.

    GameOn is a chain that has four locations: one in DC, Downtown Annapolis, Baltimore City (Fed…read moreHill), and Columbia. This location is pretty solid. It has a little outdoor area with some seating which is good since this location is small and doesn't have a ton of indoor seating beyond the bartop. The arcade game selection of these three locations is in my opinion the weakest of the four locations. But the options are decent and provides a few hours of fun. There's also only one bar in this location as some of the others like Columbia and DC have two bars. However this location does offer a private karaoke option which is great since a private karaoke room is uncommon in that area. Which makes this location stand out. And with the other locations the drink menu is incredible though each location varies slightly. Like the shot o'clock wheel at Annapolis allows you to spin the wheel instead of the bartender spins it.

    Game On is a cool spot in Annapolis, but I wouldn't go out of my way to come here…read more While the drink menu looks expansive, it was very limited for me- as I don't like very sweet drinks- same with food, there weren't many options. They have a nice selection of video games and pin ball machines, but typical of a barcade a lot of machines either had a long wait- & the others ate my quarters- it didn't feel easy to get a machine or replace quarters. The save of the night was actually a group there before us over bought tokens & didn't want to use them so we got about $13 in free games, which was why we stayed longer, otherwise we were ready to pivot after a few games & one drink.
