    We arrived early and were able to take advantage of happy hour specials. The Choptank oysters were great and the mussels were excellent. Happy hour wine by the glass were a nice accompaniment. Service was attentive and professional. This was a really great value! Highly recommended.

    We were in Annapolis for a family wedding. We did some research and decided to go to O’Brien’s for the first time. It was wonderful! The atmosphere was nice and the food was reasonable and delicious!

    We had the crab pretzel, highly recommend! Service was paced well. We sat outside on the patio, it was nice to be away from the bar and crowds.

    Great food and martinis. The back patio is a very nice atmosphere and quiet if you like to be able to talk. Oysters are fantastic

    Had a great meal at Obrien's last night. We're were pleased with the menu selections. Our server, Meaco, was fabulous. Super polite, very helpful as we made our meal choices and he kept on top of us, ensuring everything was perfect. I would definitely recommend Obrien's in Annapolis as a worthwhile dining choice !
