Best Restaurants with a Happy Hour in Chesapeake Beach

Excellent service e and environment Food very good

We went all in for the chef's tasting menu with wine pairing. It was excellent. Our waiter was charming and available. It is a loud, vibrant space. I wish it was a little less loud and a little more intimate but that is of course prefernce. The support staff is everywhere, dropping off and picking up plates, filling water, replenishing bread. Only once did they mistime pick-up to remove a plate before we were done. Particular favourites included the cretan dakos salad, hommus, garides saganaki, saffron pilaf, steak mishwi, and lemony potatoes. Tapas can be tough if you're not sure what to get. The tasting menu was great. After a full day of being very thoughtful and on our feet at a couple museums, we only had to be mindful when enjoying each plate, not choosing it.

The service was quick. The vanilla bean french toast and the quarter-pounder chocolate chip cookie were very good. The complimentary brunch cocktail or juice was a nice touch.

Jambalaya was excellent. Pretzel bread is yummy. Other entrees also were good. It was very busy and kitchen was working hard. Louder than usual but most tables were filled and thus to be expected.

Good local spot for great italian. Nice pizza and seasonal specials
