From soup to nuts, the meal was awful. The "Maryland" crabcake was loaded with filler and drowning…read morein mayonnaise. As someone who knows what a real Maryland crabcake should taste like, this was embarrassing. My hamburger arrived RAW, and my daughter's wings were greasy, tasteless, and barely edible. The bill? $144. What made things even worse was the complete lack of customer service afterward. I submitted SIX messages through their website contact form over several weeks and never received a single response. I also reached out directly to management and was ignored. When I finally called them myself after nearly a month of trying to communicate, the manager simply said, "We didn't see anything wrong with the evening," and refused to refund even part of the meal. So not only was the food terrible, but management clearly could not care less about customer satisfaction or even basic courtesy. There are far too many good restaurants in Maryland to waste your money here. I will never return.

Good food, friendly ambiance and prompt service make this German fare a winner…read more We went here for a late lunch early dinner on a Thursday. The hostess was friendly, bubbly and helpful with our menu choices. We started with the Pretzel bites with a cheese sauce and a mustard sauce for dipping. Little pillows with plenty of salt, a winner. No entree, we shared Onion Rings, Boneless chicken wings (Bbq sauce and garlic Parmesan sauce) and two sausages, bratwurst and knockwurst. Along with my wife ordering Kolsch on tap, we were in heaven. It brought us back to a trip we took to Germany. All delicious. I'm grateful that they put the sauerkraut on the side, it would make me sick. There are a lot of beers and ales on tap and many are authentic from Germany. I had ginger ale, shame on me. We'll be back for their weekend brunch! Recommended!

No decent craft beer to be had here, but I did enjoy some decent schnitzel…read more A friend suggested we grab a bite here and told me the food and ambiance was good despite the place being a dive and he was right. A cursory glance at the menu informed me that I could order schnitzel but there was no beer I found desirable. Luckily the bartender scrounged up a High Noon for me. The food, when it arrived was really good and I ate all of it. The bartended was friendly and attentive, so I had a pretty enjoyable experience overall.

Needed a snack before going to the movies and decided upon Mamá Tana's. It's a quiet, small place…read more The young lady working the counter was nice. I asked her a few questions, as this was my first time there. The jalapeño pretzel looked tasty, so I settled on that, a hotdog pretzel, and a cheese dip. I paid about ten bucks, which was a pretty good deal. The hotdog pretzel was good! Next time, I'll grab some mustard for that one. The jalapeño pretzel was delicious. I did wish I bought it as soon as it came from the oven. It gave my jaw a bit of a workout, but I still enjoyed it! I was disappointed in the cheese cup, though. The cheese was absolutely, COMPLETELY COLD! Not room temperature, but straight from a refrigerator. I wasn't expecting that and it was a bit off putting, to be honest. In the end, the pretzels were delicious and the price was decent. I'll return again, but with my own cheese next time! Lol...

Walk up to the bar get a beer. Not walk up and be asked if have a seat somewhere before they hand you a beer. Hi Parice! I'm so sorry about this experience. The City of Annapolis requires us to have a seat for every person, even if they're just having a beer, so we have to seat everyone. We've had a host working weekends since we've been open to ensure this happens. Every table has a number on it now, and we should have done a better job about pointing you to that number before (or while) you ordered. I do hope you'll come by another time. Saturdays in June are some of our busiest days, but there are lots of other slower days when you can come in and easily get a table. Again, we're sorry for this experience and hope to see you again!

I love a good hot dog, I don't care why they're made of, you can never make me hate hot dogs. And when I want a good hot dog that I know is gonna be amazing every time, I'm gonna get the pretzel dog. So here I was on a Saturday night and I smell that delicious pretzel dough, I hadn't eaten like all day so I got 3 pretzel dogs. I was full after 2 and just stashed the 3rd in my coat pocket because it was wrapped in foil and who's gonna know ?? Right, right. So I probably went to like 3 more bars after that. Got home, crashed. Woke up and was like "why is there a hot dog in my pocket?" And did I eat it? Yes I did and it was still delicious. Truly an ode to yet another fun night in fells. Not to mention the service is always friendly and fast. It's so convenient and it's right in the heart of the little square area. So it's always there if you need a little pick me up while hitting the bars or checking out some of the local shops, or even just sitting by the water and enjoying the weather. It's simple and it's yummy.
