Joss has pretty good sushi—some say the best in the area; I can’t think of anything that would be better. If you have a car, go to Sputnik Cafe on General’s Highway. Really, really adventurous fusion cooking;...

I’d highly recommend Sputnik Cafe is you’re willing to drive about ten minutes outside of Annapolis to Crownsville on General’s Highway. The food is very imaginative and can be called a true Asian...

Oh, my God! I will have to get over there right away. I haven’t had a good satsivi or khachapuri since I left Moscow. Georgian food is the best thing to come out of the (former) Soviet Union since they launched Sputnik....

Also Joss for sushi. However, I think the most interesting restaurant in the area is in Crownsville: Sputnik Restaurant on General’s Highway. They do incredibly interesting asian fusion. Their noodle dishes are especially...

, pierogi, etc.), and a post-Sputnik decor that has to be seen to be believed.

The Boatyard has a very good burger. Lures in Crownsville (where the old Sputnik was located) has an excellent kobe burger. I’ve eaten it several times and recommend it.
