We ended up at the CD Cafe on Friday night when the owner was out all over Solomons, and I’m so glad! The staff did a fantastic job dealing with their unexpected rush of customers, and the food was fantastic! I had the Popeye burger with fries. It was so good!

The new renovations and decor look amazing. CD Cafe is one of our favorite restaurants in Solomons. The food is always amazing and I highly recommend their creme brulees!

This place is amazing! The corn and crab hush puppies were so unusually unique and delicious! The goat cheese cheesecake with roasted red peppers was yummy! I had shrimp fettuccine and the flavors were outstanding. I can’t wait to come back to visit with my family and stop here again! Thank you for the delicious meal!!! Side note...the cosmopolitan was equally wonderful! Also last but certainly not least...the service was perfect. Oh dessert! We enjoyed 3 offerings and left so full that I could barely move. Definitely worth the prices and trip!

Stopped in for lunch with my friend yesterday. We were seated right away, even though they were quite busy. We both ordered their curry chicken salad sandwich. I had the potato salad side. Both were delicious, and the service was great. I didn't get dessert but I have had some of their Creme Brulee in the past, and it's fantastic. Highly recommend!

Really good food (the soup of the day was amazing) and friendly staff. They have a decently good gluten free selection (better selection for dinner than lunch). The mixed drinks are always good. Small and intimate setting. I've never had a bad experience there!

CD cafe is notorious for their amazing food and incredible staff. There is a pleasant atmosphere with small tables for two up to tables for 6, and accommodations can be made for larger parties. I recommend a smaller group to make sure you have the best experience. The food is fresh and delicious!

Oh my goodness, I don't even know where to begin. Love the atmosphere small and comfortable. The service was perfect always kept our drinks full, removed the dirty dishes immediately and was very helpful. Now to get to the food... Trying to put the pictures in order with what it was but it doesn't want to work out. So here you go this is the list of food that we had. Napoleon,Savory Walnut Crust Cheesecake,Jumbo Lump Crab Risotto,Chopped Salad,CD Chicken,Flourless Chocolate Lava Cake. So as you can see we had quite a bit. It was a perfect way to sample so many items. Three of them were appetizers then got a salad so we could have the amazing lava cake. It's really hard to pick a favorite. My suggestion is try a little bit of it all You can't go wrong. I cannot brag about this place enough. Definitely one of the best restaurants I've been to.

On Tuesday when Ben Connelly sings the locals all know and pack the place so go early or you may not have a seat. Food is first class and the menu changes from week to week. The walls are decorated with beautiful artwork. The waitress remembers what you drink and brings you one.This place is a model of how a classy restaurant should operate and the locals are friendly and charming.
