Love this place. Very cozy with warm service and excellent food. I always feel like I'm sitting in my home dining room being served far better food than I could ever prepare.

This place was recommended to me by one of the guests at my own bar and happens to be very close to my house; however I am beyond disappointed. I feel bad writing my first negative review but this is the worst old fashioned I’ve ever been served. If you’re gonna advertise your drinks as non-refundable I would expect more care to go into their construction. Instead I was met with a shaken old fashioned which I paid for per their menu despite it being terrible . I’ll give this place another chance sometime for the food, which I assume was good given that the bar was busy, but I almost assuredly won’t drink anything beyond beer or wine as I do not intend to be charged for another disappointing cocktail. To end on a brighter note the staff was very friendly and I was very happy to tip them for their hard work despite my own bad experience.

This place has become our favorite restaurant when we visit Bethany Beach. Went last month for our anniversary and really enjoyed ourselves. Fabulous food, great staff and good atmosphere. The only downside is that parking can be a challenging.

Skip this place food was bland and unseasoned. Chicken was a frozen piece of chicken rubbery. Salmon was very unfavorful. Only good note was steak.. Save you money better places to eat. Think this is frozen fish and chicken not fresh.

We were disappointed by our meal here because the reviews were, on the whole, very good. We arrived on time and were seated right away. I ordered a drink which was not very tasty but was heavy on the alcohol. We ordered an appetizer and two entrees. Unfortunately, they seemed to be out of several things (it was Sunday evening).After about an hour of waiting for any food (and the restaurant was not particularly crowded), they brought our entrees. Apparently, they forgot about our appetizer. They were very apologetic. When we tasted the food, it was a solid B. It was also very confusing that the paella had a BBQ chicken breast on it to the point where I thought maybe it was an apology for forgetting the appetizer, but from others' photos it seems like that's how they do it. The crabcakes were fine but nothing to write home about.

On the whole, it was an expensive meal for not great food. Looking over others' reviews, it does seem like many have eaten well there so maybe this was an off night. We did enjoy the ambience and kind servers.

Overall excellent quality food. The onion soup is the best I've ever had. I order onion soup in a restaurant any time there is the opportunity. I've had the salmon and cashew encrusted entrees. Both were top quality. The crab cakes are superb. Full of meat with no fillers with a flavoring that make them amazingly delicious. It's a small setting. Dining room seats about 40 with an outdoor seating area of several more tables. Excellent service staff.

Nice place and really pretty good food but for an expensive and small boutique restaurant (by Bethany Beach area standards) they really screwed up by bringing our main course right after our appetizer arrived. This should not have happened and the waitress (Mary) was so nice I didn’t want to hurt her feelings or make a scene. It really adversely impacted our experience and makes us question whether we will go back or recommend it to our friends and neighbors.

Hidden gem! We have dined here several times and the food is consistently excellent and the service is delightful — everyone is lovely. The halibut is one of the best dishes I’ve ever had in my life so much so that I begged the chef* to give me the recipe for the sauce but it’s a secret (I dream of it in between visits). *if you’re reading this I bow to you

Cedar Land & Sea Kitchen is the best kept secret in the Eastern Shore. The bar is also fantastic.

Small place but the food and service were very good. Friendly staff.

We had a big famjly&friends (12 people) dinner at Cedar to celebrate my son’s college graduation & first apartment. It was the absolute best! Really why go anywhere else? We always choose Cedar because of the food, service & friendly atmosphere. We are always made to feel at home! We ordered paella, duck, pork tenderloin,& various seafood dishes. They make the best salmon at Cedar. We had a nice variety of appetizers & we all had desserts. We had 2 servers who didn’t miss a beat in making sure
everyone got what they wanted & they waited on other diners at the same time. They were very efficient, knowledgable& friendly. Everyone enjoyed their meals & we all agreed it was a really wonderful evening. As far as cocktails go, people wait in line for the bar to open & the seats fill up quickly. The chef& head bartender are the owners & they have the experience to make everything magical. Clearly, I cant say enough good things about this hidden gem in Ocean View
