I discovered this restaurant from Instagram. An influencer recommended as a hot new spot in MD. From the moment you walk in the door, I appreciated the vibe, the design of the restaurant, and the welcoming staff. I ordered an omelet w/ seafood - delicious (9/10). Our dining host (Telfie) was so nice! 😊 We had an opportunity to chat with him about the restaurant and some of the top dishes chosen by other customers. He was wonderful (10/10). I will definitely be back in to try out other items on the menu and maybe a drink :)

My friends and I recently dined at 1123 Restaurant and was thoroughly impressed with both the food and the service. From the moment I walked in, the staff was warm, welcoming, and attentive. The menu offered a nice variety of options, and every dish we tried was absolutely delicious. Special mention goes to the Chesapeake Seafood and Grits, Chicken Fried Devil Eggs and the Chicken Fried Bacon—everything was perfectly cooked and bursting with flavor. The staff was also knowledgeable and made excellent recommendations for both food and drinks. The ambiance added to the experience, creating a cozy yet refined setting that made the meal even more enjoyable. Thank you, 1123 Restaurant, for an exceptional dining experience. We'll definitely be returning soon and recommending you to others!

I had a delightful experience at this restaurant. Brunch was delicious, I recommend the catfish and grits, and the Chesapeake. Service was excellent! The only complaint is the music was too loud for brunch!

We had a 7pm reservation and by this time they were out of lots of things on the menu. Ultimately this affected our experience, however our server was amazing. She was extremely apologetic for the limited menu and was very attentive. Unfortunately, I don’t know that I will return or recommend this establishment, especially for the price point of the restaurant.

Food quality and service has been top-notch. They’re are still new and testing certain dishes out. With that said, there were a couple items I’ve had that didn’t hit the spot, and hopefully they’ll make adjustments. Nonetheless, MOST of the items were excellent and warrant return visits. They accept feedback and seem to be poised to find the perfect balance between such an unorthodox menu and the diverse palettes of their guests’. So far, it appears that Chef Tobias is on to something special, and I’m here for the journey.
