The Maryland House

"I look forward to having my birthday party tomorrow in the Gallery with 50 people. I have been communicating with the Maryland House to reserve the Gallery and the hors d'oeuvres for a month now. I am excited to see how my guests will like the Gallery. I am still waiting for the Maryland House to answer some questions, but I hope they will get back to me before my event. I will update you on how my experience was! I am giving three starts as a neutral rating for now! After the event: The lady staff made me feel special - I give a 10/10 to the lady staff! I reserved the Gallery for my birthday party and was expected between 33 and 55 people (I know, big range).Jacq was very helpful and we had our own bar for the event. My guests liked the food and the drinks. I brought my own cake and the waiters helped us. We had a lot of fun. I have to contact the Maryland House because some of my guest were charged more than we expected. Overall, I had a pleasing experience."

"(visited August 2023) A friend recommended this spot, and we visited without a reservation on Friday evening. Maryland House is a new expansion of Brennan's down the street. As many have mentioned, the entrance is nondescript. Once you walk into the alley where the outdoors Italian restaurant is, look to your left, and there's an office-looking room. That's the entrance to the elevator for the bar. The space is huge and lively. It was definitely rowdy (not surprising for Friday evening), and we were able to snatch 4 bar seats. I unfortunately have to give the bar lower stars because my drink, which had a nori (seaweed) component, had a piece of nori that was inedible. I was not sure if it was an edible piece, so I took a bite, and had to immediately run to the bathroom to spit it out. It ruined my appetite after--which was a shame, because in my recollection, the drink itself was pretty good. Everyone's drinks were good, and I would not be opposed to coming back. But I hope they will update their nori drink."

"ANDREW IS AMAZINg! I can’t say it enough. Drinks, service, and all in between. I’m so glad we stumbled here and will absolutely be back! Love it all and most definitely awesome bar staff. Ask for him."

"Private club in nondescript location. The lobby looks like an office but there is a sign that says "This is NOT an office. Up to the 3rd floor that opens into a bar. There's indoor (tables, bar and couches) and outdoor seating. The outdoor seating is a beautiful view of the CWE. I enjoyed the Black Garlic &balsamic Pizza. I remember the name of my cocktail but it contained butterfly pea, lavender, honey and gin. Both items were delicious!"

"Great experience! We met the owner, Kevin, at his Brennan’s location by chance. The bar was closed for an event and he escorted us to the Maryland house bar. We had ‘all carrot, no stick’ and ‘Back to Kyoto’ cocktails. They were amazing. The bartender, John, was friendly and professional. ‘All carrot, no stick was my favorite drink of the night. The Maryland house bar is a hidden gem tucked between Edera Italian restaurant and suitsupply. The entrance is between the buildings leading to a beautiful artsy open area. There’s a green door to a business with an elevator to the 3rd floor. It is reservation only. We set our reservations so we can come back and have the full dine in experience. The venue is stunning but more importantly the cocktails are quality. 10/10."
