Pearl Restaurant and Ponche Tiki Bar

My boyfriend and I stopped in here for a late lunch on a whim and we had a truly excellent meal! Really cute place with fun decor. The service was fantastic and our waiter was very friendly and personable. The drinks were large and very tasty. The food came out fast and it was really delicious! We ordered the broccoli pasta and crispy brussel sprouts. Our only regret was that we didn’t have room for dessert!

In town for the holiday market and was able to get a table with as busy as every place was. We had the catfish sliders, the fried chicken sliders, the truffle fries and mushroom risotto. The food was spectacular.

The place is amazing, the food, the people, all of it blows other places out of the water. The prosciutto burrata, the crispy Brussels, the tartar, the soups, are all amazing. I have absolutely gotten the prosciutto burrata multiple times and the freshness always make me feel better. I can never remember to take a picture before digging in! All of it is so comforting and good. The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. Jake was kind and understanding of health restrictions I have on drinks and Grace and Kyle made me feel welcome. I can't wait to go back!

A stunning renovation and beautiful concept! Came in for cocktails and snacks with friends and had a wonderful experience! Outstanding service from the moment we walked in and across the board (from host, server, bartender, and manager) until we left! Compliments to the chef as well! The buratta mozzarella & prosciutto plate was delicious, and the cheese was as big as my fist!! Oddball and Garden Party cocktails were outstanding as well! Looking forward to going back again soon!!

Pearl is a uniquely fun addition to the Annapolis waterfront. A fusion style menu that one must attend with a large group to try the many great items on the menu. Start with the Steak Tartar with caramelized bourbon fat, truffle capers and egg yolk crostini. Someone must order the amazing Prosciutto & Burrata with the green Goddess sauce. We were hard pressed not to order seconds on both. for the entrees I loved the richness of the pan seared Bavette steak cooked with a Moroccan spiced pepper sauce and served with caramelized carrot puree. Another spectacular creation is the Bahn Mi Tostada a slow roasted pork butt, chicken liver and Thai ginger slaw. Your taste buds as well as your eyes with love it. We also got two orders of green beans and almonds, they were spectacular, and I was not going to deny myself like on the first course when I didn’t get a second Steak Tartar… Restaurants can have great food however it is the job of the people working there to make one feel special. The people are even better than the food! Shannon will find you the best table available and if you are lucky, you will have Elena as your server who knows everything about every creation on the menu and will not steer you wrong. When finished eating be sure to take a walk upstairs to the Tiki Bar where you will be greeted by Neiko who is both security and knowledgeable host and he will find you a suitable place to feel comfortable. Once you find your spot stop over at the bar and have Chad mix you up one of his specialties that are as great as the food is downstairs. We all had a great time at the Pearl and I believe that you will too.

We stopped in for drinks at the bar and were blown away by their bar program. Hand crafted drinks by amazing bartenders (Jake & Claire)! I wanted a refreshing drink and Jake created a custom drink that surpassed my expectations. The atmosphere is also chic and nicely decorated with relaxing lighting. I would recommend!

The appetizers were good, we had Prosciutto and Burrata, Brussels sprouts and baked oysters. For main course we had Maryland crab cakes and fried chicken sliders. Please avoid these at all cost. The crab cake was fried and very little crab if you can call it that. The slider was burnt. They did replace the slider which was a little better. They did comp us on the 2 orders of crab cakes. Drinks and service were wonderful despite the main meal being a disappointment.

Had a great meal at Pearl. Wonderful atmosphere with fun energy. They have a vibrant bar. We had an espresso martini because several of the to the patrons had them and it was great. They have Prosecco on tap which was also fun and a nice selection of beers by tap and bottle. While the menu is “small plates” they are well portioned large “small plates”. We had tuna tartare, baked oysters, pear arugula salad and Brussels sprouts. All were excellent! Our server, Kyle, was superb and added to the fun of our meal! We will be back as I want to try the bavette steak and crab cakes. They looked excellent as well.

Amazing cocktails and great vibe/ service for downtown compared to other cocktail bars

The food and service was excellent! I tried the pizza and will be back. Great ambiance and fun people!

Jake was AMAZING! A must try for people who enjoy quality crafted cocktails and great service.

Sat outside late one evening and had a fresh, fabulous cocktail and cheese board. Our server Kyle was knowledgeable and super friendly! I will be back!

Fun new restaurant in Annapolis. I have been twice and both times food was excellent. Kyle, our server, was super friendly, knowledgeable, and very attentive.

So excited about the addition of The Pearl to Annapolis! Had a fabulous time last Saturday evening. Really good staff from the front door and on. Which was not the case at the establishment we had just left (which is why we left). Had a drink and ordered pizza (really good pizza!). We will go back to try the rest of the menu. Welcome to Annapolis! Happy to have you!

I LOVE pearl! Every time I come, I get the Red Room drink and the fried chicken sliders! Also, prosecco on tap???!
