Crush Kitchen &  Winehouse

Stopped by here with my dog on a quiet Sunday afternoon for a late lunch at one of the outdoor tables in the adjacent alley. Large wine selection and excellent food. I'll repeat, EXCELLENT FOOD. Waitress was prompt and courteous. The location is a few blocks from the harbor, so relatively quiet and not as "touristy." I don't know why some people on yelp complain about their prices. It's a restaurant in Annapolis. They have overhead. If you don't want to spend money, pick up a bottle of Merlot at Trader Joe's and drink at home.

Excellent appetizers.  Two make a nice lite supper.  Had scallops with cous cous. Distinct favors, scallops were moist, nicely sautéed.
Brie topped with honey, brown sugar, served with green apple slices, and sesame wafers...yum.  Wines a bit pricey, but good selection.

Arrived here right as the jazz band was warming up - great atmosphere with a friendly staff.  My wife and I weren't all that hungry and wanted to try a place with good atmosphere not overrun by midshipmen and their families on the eve of commissioning.

We arrived a little before 7pm on Thursday night and started off with a plate of alligator sausage ($12) with a carafe of viognier ($16-18?) between the two of us.  An excellent pairing, and the sausage was delicious.

For dinner, we split the Hawaiian Ribeye ($28) paired with a carafe of Cabernet Sauvignon ($18?).  We asked for the steak Medium Rare, but it arrived Medium Well.  While the waitress seemed happy to oblige us with another steak, it tasted good and was still juicy enough for our palates.  Another successful pairing with the wine and steak, and we enjoyed our entree while the jazz band began their evening.

Excellent music and atmosphere with a delicious meal.

Not enough wines by the glass or carafe (5 of each), and prices were just a little higher than seemed appropriate.  But, the 20% discount during the live jazz band was a pleasant surprise.

I did find it oddly humorous that the signs for the restrooms were printed up on a flat sheet of paper but had braille printed as well.  Not sure if that meets the ADA accessibility guidelines...
