The Choptank

I visited this restaurant with my homegirl and we had a great time. I don't really eat fish a lot, but when I tell you, the Bronzino change my entire thought process on fish. I tried the Bronzino and it was by far the best fish I've ever had it was so tender and juicy not dry at all. Our waiter was super great with suggestions being that I'm not a big fish eater. They were super helpful and recommending the butter sauce, which I have been thinking about ever since we left. This restaurant is so cute and a great place for a date night family gathering we went during the evening and it is so beautiful to see on the roof rooftop overlooking the water, beautiful atmosphere 10 out of 10.

This restaurant was recommended to us from a Air BNB we rented. We were very disappointed with the food we ordered. There were 9 of us and we went on for lunch. The fish and chips were burned on one part and sooo oily. My daughter barely ate any of it. I ordered the Choptank steamed platter to share with my granddaughter and while the amount of food in the platter was generous it was extremely overloaded with old bay seasoning to the point you couldn't enjoy the taste of the seafood. Seasonings are meant to enhance the flavor of food not drown it. I had to use the lemon to clean off the seasoning from the corn on the cob. I brought most of the platter home so I could clean it and then eat it. My granddaughter who loves seafood didn't eat any of it. The crab cake on the sandwich tasted like it had been seasoned with vinegar or at least something similar when my husband asked me what I thought. He didn't care for it. The lobster roll & mac and cheese was enjoyed. Overall it was a ehhh experience that didn't justify the cost of the meal to me. The restaurant was very clean, and the staff were nice and pleasant. Because this place was highly recommended I hope they were just having a bad day. We went on the Tuesday that just passed I didn't take any pictures of the food because I wasn't planning on leaving a review.

Went here with my family on Christmas Eve around 6pm. We sat upstairs which to me doesn't have the vibrant energy of the downstairs area.Our server was great and very accommodating!We enjoyed the blue point oysters on the half shelf shell and the peel and eat shrimp for starters. I got the seafood cioppino for my entree and found it filling without making you go into a rem cycle after! It was a great holiday meal!

This is my first time going here. I got the fish and chips. The fish was amazing and it melted in your mouth. The waitress Nija was one of the nicest servers I've ever had. The decorations were great. The lights looked very nice. If I could give this place 6 stars I would be mad that I couldn't 7.

I'm chuckling writing this review. My significant other always introduces new places to me. I lied and said I never had been to Choptank, only to be reminded once we arrived that I've been a couple of times. Yelp reminded me too with the check in feature.For date night on Saturday, we ventured to Annapolis. We scored a parking right in front. Lucky! We didn't even have to valet. (They do offer valet on the main entrance side.) We were late for our reservation but the host had no issue and even sat us outside like we requested. My view is always beautiful sitting across my Beau but Saturday was extra special with the view of the yachts and water. For starters we had to have oysters, Oysters Rockefeller to be exact. I always know when my Beau likes them because he doesn't hesitate to eat mine if I leave them alone too long on the plate. Safe to say these were a hit! I wasn't particularly hungry so my lobster roll got a new home. My Beau loved it. To be honest it was one of the BEST lobster rolls in the DMV area that I've had. The lobster was so soft! My Beau got the 8oz Black Angus Flatiron. He paired it with Brussel sprouts. He liked it but packed it since he had to eat my meal. I'm a BIG on desserts. My Beau said he'd share with me so we picked his choice, cheesecake. It was delicious! I didn't eat my food but I sure did eat the cheesecake. (Shrugs) After dinner we stopped by the bar to continue the fun. The bartender was nice. Drinks were made with generous pours. Thanks bartender! Attire, for the summer months you can definitely dress down, for winter months you can dress to impress. I love dressing up but was glad my Beau told me not to dress fancy. lol I would have been out of place this particular evening. Sun dresses, body parts showing, it is definitely giving beach vibes! My past experiences were equally great. Love love love water front restaurants so we will definitely be back.

I had previously visited the Westin hotel in Annapolis on business in 2016, but not this Harbor boat yard or this restaurant. I visited here for the first time to visit the Annual Annapolis Powerboat Show, at the Annapolis Harbor Boat Yard, which was great. We arrived at the harbor boatyard around noon. We reserved our 12 noon lunch at the Choptank restaurant on OpenTable. Choptank is a river located in Maryland, which feeds into the Chesapeake Bay. My party of four arrived at 12 noon. We requested an outside table upstairs overlooking the Annual Annapolis Powerboat Show, which was a nice table under great weather. I started with and enjoyed my two Minehunter martinis with four roses bourbon, averna, pomegranate, cacao, and cardamom for $16. I ended my lunch with a draft Guinness for $8. I also enjoyed my Mahi sandwich with spicy Korean rub, house made asian veggie slaw, hoisin mayo and a side Caesar salad for $28. Teagan P. served us very well although bar service here was very slow. Only one bartender was working downstairs, who could not keep up with the bar service. My total bill was $284 including 20% gratuity. After paying our bill I realized this restaurant is part of the Atlas Restaurant Group Rewards program, which I will investigate. More about the Annual Annapolis Powerboat Show after our lunch.

Actually ı would want to give 5 star! But 3 things made me down !First thing who try to give us bed place after 1 hour wait! (The blonde lady with pony tail) she took us after we said that we want something nicer place!Second thing is; creme brûlée one of my favorite dessert! The top crispy part most enjoyable part. And it must me warm when it arrive! But unfortunately no it wasn't .Third thing: we finished the brulee but there is no coffeee. We canceled it and I was upset having dessert without coffee:(Rest of the food and view was really good! I think we have to come weekdays not weekends!By the way we had couple of drinks while we wait for our place!Anyway we will come again weekdays!:)

NADIA 5 STARS. Please ask for her when you come here. Nadia alone made our experience from a 3 to 4 star. She was amazing, had a great personality and was honest when It came to food options. My wife and I decided to just get drinks and fries since we couldn't decided on what to order. My drink the fortuna was light and very gingery drink The fries were nice and crispy but I enjoyed all the sauces you can tell It was homemade. The crème brûlée was more fruity than vanilla but It had a yogurt consistency Once again thank you Nadia for such an amazing experience

The staff and the views make this place so great. I went on a very busy Friday lunch and they seated me on the rooftop with "no guarantee of full shade," but the staff made all the umbrellas work so that everyone was comfortable and shaded.The food was pretty good. I had the citrus and goat cheese platter and a half dozen oysters. All good options. For a day trip to Annapolis, definitely add this to your itinerary.

It's Saturday, I get it. I've worked in the restaurant industry. A manager just "cut me off" even though I am 110% more sober than all of the clientele present. Bull. Don't come here. I've been here for more lunches thanI care to count and more lunches / dinners than I should've been present for. This establishment is trash. Absolutely no good service. Don't come here.
