Great food and service. Well deserving if the overall 4.8 stars. Mussels and grilled oysters are on new menu starters. The Squid Ink pasta and blue crab was soooooooo good as was the class and spaghetti dish. Sauvignon Blanc wine paired nicely

The food was 10/10! We got their new app, the risotto balls, the vodka pizza, and the gnocchi! Our server was so sweet and the holiday cocktails were delish! Highly recommend. We do prefer the bar seating, such a fun vibe with a beautiful view!

Consistently the best restaurant in Calvert County, hands down. Been several times and it never disappoints. They do play the music too loud, though. Way. Too. Loud.

A great new addition to the area, with better food and service than most. The mushroom and truffle bisque was spectacular, and the main courses we had were both very good. The place had a nice, upscale ambiance and was very comfortable. The waiter was mostly attentive and friendly. There were some small issues. The bread we ordered (to sop up the sauce of a pasta) arrived pretty burnt, and the waiter recognized that but didn't seem much bothered (and didn't comp it or replace it). In addition, the waiter merely assumed I wanted the 8 oz pour for my wine rather than the 5 oz, and I would rather have been asked. A dessert on the menu wasn't actually available, and its replacement was okay but a bit dense and lacking in flavor. In addition, it's a pretty tough place for a vegetarian. Though the menu is well-labeled for vegetarians and the gluten-free, there wasn't a single vegetarian pasta among the seven offered, for example. Though these sound like a lot of criticisms, it was only because the place is so clearly aiming high and offering such good food that the shortcomings are worth pointing out. We weren't disappointed and hope to see it get even better.
