About This Spot
Stepping into Reuben's Restaurant feels like slipping into a little corner of Annapolis where time slows down just enough to savor a simple, comforting meal. Nestled on West Street, this unpretentious spot exudes the warm, unhurried rhythm of a classic neighborhood diner, where familiarity and genuine hospitality set the tone from the moment you walk in.
The space is cozy, with a casual charm that invites you to linger over a plate of hearty fare made to order. Behind the counter, an older couple quietly run the show, bringing a sense of homegrown care to plates featuring everything from perfectly toasted sandwiches on rye to cheeseburgers paired with crispy fries. The menu feels like a gentle nod to old-school American comfort food, the kind that strikes a nostalgic chord yet remains satisfying in its straightforwardness.
There’s a comforting ease here—whether you’re grabbing a breakfast combo before heading out or settling in for a quietly satisfying lunch.

At Reuben’s, the atmosphere is relaxed but alive with the subtle hum of a shared neighborhood rhythm. Its no-frills seating and modest interior don’t detract from the genuine warmth that’s evident in every bite and every friendly smile. It’s the kind of place you might pass by easily without a second thought—until you take that chance and find a hidden gem where classic flavors, kind service, and an unassuming setting come together naturally.

Cute little hole in the wall. Older couple own it and cook and everything and they are very nice. Prices are reasonable and cook to order. It taste like old school diner food which is hard to find these days. Easy walk as well

10/10. I've never had a Reuben with such perfectly toasted rye, the fries were perfect, the cheesesteak was just the right balance between dry and soggy, and the prices are very reasonable. Nothing bad to say about the place at all—I actually like the cozy seating and 90s menu board. Definitely coming back next time I'm around.

Hidden Gem, have lived in Annapolis my whole life and always drive by this place. Was craving a turkey club and did not disappoint. Couple who runs it are very nice!

More here than meets the eye! I regret not trying sooner. Great food, great service, and all while not breaking the bank. What more could you ask for?!

Came here on business, stayed at the local Westin. Cute place, hole in the wall, did not disappoint. Ordered a chicken cheesesteak and it was fantastic.

This place is great, a real blast from the past. Food made to order in a classic lunch-counter type setting. I got a reuben, bag of chips, and a can of pop for $10. It's definitely a throwback to earlier times. I would mostly recommend it as a good place to get a quick unfussy bite to eat. There are restrooms available at the back and they were clean. Note: the payphone outside, while cool, is disconnected.
