“My husband and I had the pleasure of dining here as we were a Veteran family invited to Bethany Beach with Operation SEAS the Day. Words can’t express our gratitude of the wonderful dinner that we had. The outdoor patio is beautiful and romantic. We both ordered the ribeyes and they were delicious, juicy, and tender. The crab dip was the best I have ever eaten. We loved the cream of crab and French onion soups. The servers were friendly and took very great care of us. This restaurant is must if you are in town, we will definitely come back when we return to Bethany Beach.“

“My husband and I had a great breakfast experience, just a few minutes ago!! Great food - not a bunch of hoity-toity “foodie” fare - just simple dishes, sides, and combos that are prepared perfectly. Sahara Cafe is, now, on our “must visit” list! Staff is very friendly and super efficient. The cafe is homey and traditional, reminiscent of restaurants from my youth - that great diner feeling. Let’s talk about that giant cup o’ Joe… delicious, hot, and the size of a “FRIENDS” cup!! What?! Not having to wait for multiple refills?! That’s right. Not that you’d have to wait because their servers are very attentive and accommodating. Five stars, for sure! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“their French Dip. that is all. do not go on living your life without trying this unless you're vegan or something. just off Rt 611 in the teal marsh plaza a few hundred yards after the corner of 50 and 611 in West OCMD/Berlin/Assateague area. Must enter off Marjan lane. now stop reading this and go get yourself a French dip.... or if you prefer .. they got true blue crab BROILED MD crab cakes AND soft shells. now go...go get their French dip and thank me later“

“Our go-to when in town!! seated quickly. Coffee came quickly and we were not rushed to order. We had a cheese Danish ($3.99) to start. Then "eye opener" w/ meat (2 eggs over, home fries, and a ton of bacon!) $14.99. I had the creamed chip beef w/ home fries $14.99. Both servings of home fries and of bacon were very generous!! Dryden, our server, checked on us regularly and kept our coffee hot and full. Food came fast, hot and well presented. Out total bill, before tax and tip was $40.94 for to full tummies!!!! We took a carry-out box with a muffin, home fries and bacon home!“

“Been there several times this past year since “new people” took over. Let me tell you…what an improvement! I undersatnd why there is no draft beer (going back a few years) but theres always cold cans and bottles at a good price. Food is much more upscale in appearance and taste! Reasonable priced too. Very good breakfast as well. Staff is attentive as well. Restrooms now always have toilet paper and proper hand drying facilities. And now even Trivia as well. Keep it up!!“

“As a local, I can tell you that Polock Johnny’s is a must-visit for anyone coming to the boardwalk, but it’s also a spot I’m proud to return to time and time again. It’s one of those places that never disappoints, whether you’re a tourist or a year-round resident like me.

The Polish Sausage? Hands down the best on the boardwalk. They’re always hot, delicious, perfectly seasoned and piled high with all the toppings you would want. I’m a big fan of the funnel cakes but honestly, you can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. The mozzarella sticks are fantastic too—crispy and golden on the outside, juicy and cheesy on the inside. It’s the perfect mix of comfort food with that classic Ocean City vibe.

What I really love about Polock Johnny’s is the consistency. Whether it’s the middle of summer or a chilly fall afternoon, the quality never wavers. The staff is always friendly, and the service is fast, which is great when you’re trying to enjoy the boardwalk without waiting in a long line. It’s the kind of place that makes you feel like a local, even if it’s your first visit.

If you’re walking the boardwalk, don’t skip Polock Johnny’s. It’s a piece of Ocean City I can always count on, and I can’t wait to grab my next order!“

“We saw the 4 and a half stars and had to come. We give it a 5! BBQ wings are delicious! 18” Chicken bacon ranch pizza had lots of cheese and was wonderful. Out of the 8 pieces, we took 4 home. We will be back!“

“amazing pizza! 10/10 def recommend this place!“

“Absolutely delicious. I had the vegan tacos and the vegan dessert. I'm in love“

“Great local establishment.
Big, clean, and bright. Can get a little noisy, depending on when you go. Vibe is kinda farm-like.

Went for 1st time on a weekday for lunch. Not very crowded at all.
Excited to try beer and food.
Service was initially meh...server brought us past all empty tables and booths to far back corner next to bathrooms/kitchen door?
She then seemed annoyed when we asked to have a different table.
New table, new server who was very upbeat and friendly.
Everything was great. Food was outstanding! Beer flight good to very good. They mixed up the beers I asked for, but made it right.
Definitely looking forward to returning! Heard desserts are amazing, too!“

“Great atmosphere. Amazing crushes. We did not have the usual great service our last visit, but I chalk that up to “new summer help.” The blackened scallops w/ crab imperial is delicious.“

“Went here two nights in a row on our recent trip. Hostess was amazing and got us a seat inside the restaurant due to the heat from the sun. Peyton was so fantastic as a server the first night we decided to go back the next night and specifically ask to be sat in her section. Would definitely recommend if you like good wings, cold beer and great service.“

“We enjoyed an excellent dinner last evening and had great service by Lisa. We had the crab cake platter and the Big chicken, both were perfect! We will return soon and definitely request Lisa, who added to our experience.“

“Had our first visit to Lobster Shanty yesterday. Definitely WILL NOT be our last ! Food,staff and atmosphere were outstanding. Portions and price very reasonable. Highly recommend !“

“We live down the street and, although we wouldn’t consider ourselves “regulars”, we’ve made Riverside our go-to spot for good food, good times, and friendly faces.“

“We went 3/31/2025 had great food and drinks and a superb service would recommend to go their“

“We had a wonderful time with Maddie S as our server. Maddie provided wonderful service and was very helpful. During our meal, I took a walk around the dock when suddenly I slipped and fell into the bay!!! Maddie rushed to my rescue and attempted to pull me out when a shark appeared!! Maddie bravely defended me against the raging shark, striking it in the nose warding off the beast!!! 5 stars would come again!“

“We heard our favorite bartender Jen Lowe was back on Wednesdays night so we booked and extra night to be able to stop by the Shark to say Hello. Happy hour at the Shark is our favorite place to go while visiting the Ocean. This was night number 3 for us this trip and as always the food was delicious maybe better than in years past. Always fresh served hot and always with a warn friendly smile. It’s always good to go the a place that’s has a feel like “Cheer’s “ atmosphere. Where they greet you like family and make sure you leave happy and looking forward to your next visit. So visit the Shark the best food in all of Ocean City.“

“The pizza and sausage were absolutely amazing! Fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. The sausage had great seasoning and the pizza was crispy with plenty of toppings. Definitely one of the best meals I’ve had in a while. Highly recommend! And one of the best customer service 🙏🙏🙏🙏“

“Just ate here tonight for dinner. Great food as always. Good portions & decent prices. Very friendly, attentive & punctual staff.“

“What a great show on NYE! Fuzz Box Piranha nailed it!! The female bar tender was amazing and made me a mocktail based off of one of the available cocktails. Being alcohol free has its drawbacks in taste when going to bars with friends. Thank you for a great evening.“

“We happened upon this place while checking out reviews of breakfast spots. We've been by there numerous times during the OC cruises, but never tried it. We really enjoyed our breakfast there Sunday morning! I had the "goin' bananas french toast" (really good, and lots of it) and my wife had the "avocado toast", which she loved. Met the owner and had a nice chat. Good food and made fresh. Will definitely return next cruise we attend. Highly recommend.“

“Barrett was our server. She is the best .we had crab cake and ahi tuna food was delicious. The corn on the cob was fantastic“

“First time here and I can’t say enough about the food and service! Everything was great! Will definitely be going back! FYI the kids menu was also great!“
