Our award winning menu celebrates the bounty of the Chesapeake region by using locally sourced seafood, meat, and produce to create exquisite dishes that evolve with the seasons. Chef Mills has been featured extensively for his use of invasive seafood species, a very delicious way to help the Chesapeake Bay. Don't forget to order the Blue Crab and Bone Marrow dip or handmade pasta. We have an expertly curated wine list, beer selection, and cocktails - both classic and creative.

    I made a reservation for my birthday and, the cutest touch was the signed birthday card on my table. I tried three small plates, the oyster shooter and rhe oyster on the half shell and all of them were amazingly yummy. I loved that the menu was so oyster focused with the oyster aoli in the steak tartar and oyster croutons in the Ceasar salad. We ended the evening with bourbon maple ice-cream and a pineapple rum. The icecream reminded me of homemade ice-cream.

    Dutch Courage is a new favorite. Three of us got a handful of dishes and shared them all. Drinks were terrific, inventive and beautiful to look at. The sea—nicely seasoned rock fish with fingerling tomatoes—was delicious, spiced just right. Crab dip, cheese, pickled items and dessert were great, too. One disappointment: we had made reservations weeks in advance to celebrate a special event. We were offered a low couch with a table for seating, but my husband’s injured back needed a regular chair. So we were seated out back. It was cold and raining…I’d like to say it was ok but it really wasn’t.
