Vin 909

My favorite restaurant in Annapolis! I have been multiple times in the last year and the food and service remain stellar! So happy to have a great farm to table restaurant in the area!They don't take reservations so make sure to get there early to add your name to the waitlist. You are able to enjoy a glass of wine in the indoor bar area (or outside when the weather is nice) while you wait for a table. 100% worth the wait!

I've been to Vin909 many times and my experience is never the same and I'm unsure why I haven't written a review yet. I always come back for the butterscotch pudding. Even if the bartender just puts it on the counter with the lonely carmelita points on top and no spoon, napkin, or bag for a to go order, after leaving a 85% cash tip. When I learn or feel like making both items at home, I won't return.

This is a farm to table experience and definitely recommend it! There are no reservations so expect a waitt. It's family styles but definitely recommend a salad, and their mashed potatoes, and black bean hummus as dstarters. They are also known for their steak and their pizzas! You can't go wrong with either. Me and the wife had two pizzas and a salad and mashed potatoes and it was a lot of food. Great service and a great date night dinner.

This is probably my new favorite restaurant! The food was phenomenal, the skirt steak, the arugula and prosciutto salad, the knickerbocker and the peppa pig pizza are incredible. We've been twice now and can't wait to go back and try more off the menu. Loved sitting out on the heated patio! Service was great, however, expect a long wait if you don't get there right when they open. The wait is long , but worth it in my opinion, especially when you can grab a drink around the corner while you wait.

It's undeniable that this place has "it".Walking up to 909 you are welcomed but a lovely natural garden that screams pollinator goals - I mean how does a restaurant maintain such lovely foilage? Apparently by trade, some other passerby was bewitched by their pizza and offered their superb gardening skills up as trade. This is an abridge to Alex's version of the story but I really feel they must have loved the 909 so much it was a fair trade.This place feels like home. The restaurant was full of acquaintances, and individuals that looked as if they had a semi permanent fixture at the bar. They - the patrons, and the staff welcomed me kindly as I sat at the bar. You know it's a good place to be when the customers are as much part of the service as the staff is. I ordered two glasses of a lovely varietal I had never heard of thanks to their expansive and highly cultured wine menu - to enjoy with a cheese plate because my analysis paralysis kicked in with their perfect menu (everything here looks delicious). I met a lovely stranger or two and one even so kind to share his perfect piece of margherita pie with me (an absolutely euphoric experience please trust me on this one) and Alex, the owner, happened to plop down at the countertop next to me and entertained my love and affection for his beautiful restaurant for far too long.Guys, it's good. It's a fall in love, bring a first date, your beloved family, or connect with a stranger because you both happen to exist in the same space kind of place. This restaurant is a moment in time and I couldn't recommend it more. For the non poets aside - it's got a huge wine menu broken down by price per glass (genius), vegan and vegetarian options, and a rotating locally focused menu. Enjoy.

Great atmosphere! Great service! Amazing food! Located in the Eastport neighborhood of Annapolis, this cozy pizza and small plates restaurant is the perfect spot for date night or a night out with a group of friends. Be aware, they do not take reservations. Show up at 430-445 if you want to get seated at 5 when they open. They have an extensive wine collection and cocktail menu that is offered right when you sit down. Our waiter read off a list of daily specials and we put in our small plate orders. The food came out so quick! We started with a Caesar salad, meatballs, and the burrata. Everything was delicious and d beautifully prepared. For our mains we had the Porchetta and the Chef Moore pizza. The porchetta melted in our mouths and the pizza was thin, crispy, and packed with flavor. It was a great experience all around at Vin 909. You may even get to see a really famous Orioles player like we did!

I really like the location but it is small and crowded. Food is good and service is great!

My experience at Vin 909 was okay. It was super busy and our wait was almost 50 minutes long. Ordered the margarita pizza, brussel sprouts, and speck-wrapped shrimp. Brussel sprouts came out first and were over-charred and burnt. It was still delicious, but I wish it wasn't so overcooked. The speck-wrapped shrimp was too salty and the cheese was overpowering. Could not taste too much of the shrimp at all. The margarita pizza was solid and the only real saving grace of the meal. Service was meh. I think our waitress was too busy/forgot about us for the check and refill for water. My mouth was so dry from the saltiness of the shrimp dish. Not sure what the hype is about Vin 909, but it was just an ok experience for me.

Always one of our favorite places! Love how the staff all helps each other. The food is the some of the best in Annapolis. Such an adorable little restaurant

Bottom Line: Excellent pizza and great service in an intimate atmosphere with limited parking.Finally, I made it to Vin 909 which is one of the most highly rated restaurants in Annapolis. My husband and I arrived at 5:45pm on a chilly Saturday evening and we waited about 75 minutes before our party of four was seated. We started with wines by the glass before moving on to a charcuterie board which consisted of a few cheeses, some typed of cured meat, nuts, olive tapenade and apples. Then it was time for pizza! We debated ordering two pizzas but decided to "over order" to take some leftover home. Every pizza we ordered was so good that there wasn't much to take home but I am glad that we got to enjoy the variety of pizzas. For pizzas we had the meaty "The Spotted Pig," the seafood forward "Man from Nantucket" and and the veggie intense "Fall Harvest." All three pizzas were really good but I think the Spotted Pig was probably my favorite with three different cheeses (Mozzarella, Provolone and Parmesan) and two different meats (wild boar meatballs and Soppressata salume) over a read sauce and topped with basil. Yeah, if I could only eat one pizza for the rest of my life I think it might just be The Spotted Pig. After overindulging on dinner we skipped dessert. As far as ambience goes, its intimate and cozy. And by that, I mean it can feel a little cramped at times. We were fortunate to score a booth in an alcove but I can definitely see where other tables might feel close to the adjacent tables. There is a small bar with a handful of seats that I am willing to guess is fully occupied more often then its not. Vin 909 doesn't take reservations and there is not really anywhere to wait inside so be prepared to stand out in the elements whatever they are at the time. If its nice weather then you can take a seat at some benches and sip on some wine. Vin 909 has a handful or so of parking spots but the lot was full when we arrived so we ended up parking at the Eastport Shopping Center (not sure if that is what its called) on Bay Ridge Ave and staying toasty while we waited for our table to be ready. There is also street parking in the area.
