How Our Improved Guide Works           Submit Your Own Review

A New Look for the Readers' Restaurant Guide! Starting with our September 2004 issue, What's Up? Annapolis has revamped its Readers' Restaurant Guide to give you more information on dining choices. We've kept the "real-life" comments and ratings, but re-arranged the listings by location to make them easier to find. Within each location, restaurants are grouped by price range, from expensive ($$$$) to inexpensive ($). Please let us know what you think of the redesign in terms of visual aesthetics and usability. Email us at events@whatsupmag.com

Ratings for food, atmosphere and service range from 1 to 20. Average price refers to the cost of a typical dinner entrée. And comments quoted are selected to be representative of all those we've received. Add your own review by sending in a review form and you could win our monthly drawing for a $50 gift certificate to a local restaurant. This month's winner is "Feasty Jon" Mayer of Arnold.
