“As someone who has vacationed to OC three times. We have never been to a higher end restaurant before and had no idea what to expect. The added 20 percent was a bit confusing but the food was delicious, the staff was amazing and it was a great experience for sure. I definitely didn't expect to spend what we did but it was a once in a lifetime experience for us and it was worth it for sure!”

“We dined at One Coastal over the weekend. We had four people in our party and everyone ordered a different item on the menu. Food was fantastic! I enjoyed a simple pasta dish that was the most delish meal I’ve had in years. I shared with everyone at the table and everyone loved it. My husband had the pork chop and reported that it was delicious. My daughter had the scallops and said they were perfect. Her boyfriend had the flank steak and it looked terrific. But my pasta was PERFECTION!”

“The Tide Room at The Shore Beach Club: A Delightful Dining Experience Last evening, we had the pleasure of dining at The Tide Room at The Shore Beach Club in Ocean City, Maryland. Our reservation was for 8:15 PM, and despite potential parking challenges, we found it surprisingly easy to find a spot. The restaurant’s recent remodel is evident as you walk up the stairs into the inviting dining area. Upon arrival, we were promptly greeted at the hostess stand and seated immediately. We appreciated the choice between indoor and outdoor seating, and the variety of seating options available, from semi-circle couches to large arrangements for bigger parties. Our server was attentive from the start, quickly providing us with water, drinks, and menus. After a brief look at the menu, we received a thorough rundown of the evening’s specials. The noise level was perfect, allowing for a pleasant conversation, and the open-air setting provided a comfortable breeze. For appetizers, we chose the crab dip and crab deviled eggs. While both were enjoyable, the crab deviled eggs stood out as the better of the two. I also tried a drink called “Lost in the South,” a refreshing blend of lemon and bourbon that became my favorite part of the evening. For the main course, I opted for the boardwalk fries with a crabcake, a dish labeled as an Eastern Shore Maryland specialty. It was served with tartar sauce and met my expectations with its classic flavors. To finish off the meal, we each selected different desserts. The restaurant’s take on the Maryland Smith Island cake, a cookies and cream version, was a delightful surprise and possibly even better than the traditional version. I highly recommend trying it if it’s available. Overall, The Tide Room offers a wonderful dining experience with excellent service, a comfortable atmosphere, and delicious food. It’s definitely worth a visit if you’re in Ocean City.”

“Super good experience… Great service! Great food! A great variety of taste that I have not had it other similar venues. Yesterday I was my first time But will certainly not be my last”

“Amazing service and delicious food. It is a must visit every year during our family beach vacation. I highly recommend the hot crab roll and the crab cake! Don’t pass on the chocolate chip cookies either!”

“I had a great Italian hoagie, and I can’t wait to come back next year, and try more items! It’s modest from the outside, but the inside is so cute! Huge menu, and extra snacks and treats available, and there’s a tiny bar and tables, along with a full selection of beer and wine. Even some groceries. Really cool place!”

“Highly recommend. Picked up our boil for two and added extra shrimp to our order. One of the best boils we’ve had. Will definitely order again when coming back to ocean city!!”

“Dog friendly and great food. Friendly and fun atmosphere. Owner personally greeted us with biscuits for our dog Skillet.”

“10/10 period. Great sushi, great server and great people. All around a satisfying experience. Call ahead for reservations because it's a small eatery and tables/bar seating go fast!”

“Sorry I waited so long. I got their cheeseburger and it’s awesome! Fries are included and they are crisp, tasty and a properly sized order as a side. I highly recommend Grilliez!”

“It's always a challenge going out for a bite to eat in OC in the off season as you never know what you are going to get. After reading reviews and looking at menus, I decided to check out Liquid Assets and what a great decision that turned out to be. Walking in alone, I was quickly greeted by Kyle and Joe at the bar and directed to an open seat at the bar. After a brief run down of the drink offerings, I asked for a beer and they recommended a local brew that did not disappoint. Before I had a chance to look at the menu, Kyle brought over a specials menu which was both amazing and overwhelming, and this was just the special menu, as the regular menu pretty much covered every palette imaginable. Interested in the 2 fish options, I asked Kyle for his recommendation and without hesitation, he suggested the Pan Seared Monkfish with which I went and He was not wrong. It came out beautifully presented and was probably the best fish dish I've experienced. Alrhough the fish was cooked perfectly, the star of the dish was how it was presented and everything else it was served with. I went out with an open mind and I was wowed by the experience. Rare do you find stellar staff and 5 star meals but on April 7th, 2025, I did in a town full of less than stellar options. Thanks to locals who care about what they do and who they work for and to Liquid Assets for making OC MD better. cheers.”

“Great small coffee shop! Plus the added bonus of the other shops to walk around in! Iced caramel latte is very good! One of the best i have had! Highly recommend going here if you love coffee!”

“My flounder with a crabcake was ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS. Highly recommend this little gem in OC.”

“This place reminds me of my mom’s cooking! 🎉🥰 loveeee”

“Sedona is a gem in the heart of Bethany. We loved it so much that we returned for a second night! Prime rib is out of this world! Thank you Kevin and Vincent for taking such good care of us! We will definitely be back!”

“I just had the best chicken sandwich with cheese I’ve ever eaten and my wife really enjoyed the pork sandwich with cheese. I’m very picky about my food and almost never write reviews. I highly recommend eating the food at Lili’s Place. Incredible Lunch. Thanks!”

“Had a mom-daughter date tonight and we loved everything right down to the fantastic service (thank you, Juliana!). I have been coming here for many years and it honestly never disappoints, but I had to take the time to post a recommendation- particularly since Juliana provided such good service.”

“Best breakfast in fenwick island!!!!!!!”

“I have been missing some good seafood from my country and I say let’s try this place. No regrets. The food was great, pretty laid back ambiance. Customer service was A1. Keep doing you Rusty Jimmy.”

“It’s a nice diner but they have one dumb rule. All over the country no one has to sign up for a solo seat at the counter. You walk in and you grab a seat. Not at this place. I just watched Owner kicked out a local & told him he had to wait even though there was no one waiting for the counter. Seat sat empty for 8 min. Everyone at the counter thought this was a dumb rule even the staff. Counter seats fill up you don’t need a sign in sheet for those. Such bad business. #1 because it’s a dumb rule #2 because now the local that eats there 4 times a week is now done with the diner which they will need in the off season months. “Dumb””

“We loved the atmosphere and the view. The bar was great with an upscale vibe.”

“So glad we decided to try Munchies Grill. We will definitely be back and spreading the word. Delicious food! Classic Cheesesteak was the best Philly Steak down this way...with that Cheese Whiz! Fair prices and fast, friendly delivery!”

“We stopped in at PopCe’s on a whim while visiting the area - thank goodness it popped up on our search when the mood for ice cream struck. We are big fans of local businesses and homemade ice cream, and this was absolutely some of the best ice cream we’ve ever eaten!! The flavors run from traditional to seasonally unique. We tried the cookie dough, coconut, lemon Oreo (not to be missed!), blueberry dairy free, and butter pecan. Each one was a hit. We also had a chance to talk with the owner — he couldn’t have been any more welcoming and pleasant. You will definitely enjoy this gem.”

“Cool vibe, people, great service and food! Really enjoyed the experience and meal. 100% you must try the Duck Wontons appetizer. It’s is incredibly delicious.”

“The food is amazing the staff is one if a kind amd I highly recommend this place.”

“Disappointing Experience Unfortunately, this place did not meet expectations. The portions were very small for the high price, and to make matters worse, no sauces are included—you have to pay $2.50 for each one! I won’t be returning. The value just isn’t there. On top of that, when I shared my feedback, the owner was confrontational and dismissive instead of listening and taking my concerns seriously. To make things worse, other employees appeared to be laughing at me or the situation, which is just plain disrespectful and disgusting. As for the food—it was bland and just not good. The rice was the first thing I tried, and it was bad right away. I followed that with a small bite of chicken, hoping it might be better, but it was also completely lacking in flavor. I couldn’t eat any more after that. Overall, not a good experience. It’s genuinely baffling how this place has a 4.7-star rating on Google Reviews. There’s only one other supposed kabob restaurant in Ocean City, so maybe that’s the only reason this place is rated so highly—but it certainly isn’t because of the quality or service.”

“We always go to Catch 54 when at the beach. The food is amazing every single time, the service is great, and it’s just a wonderful atmosphere. I could not recommend Catch 54 enough! If there was only one restaurant that I was eating at while at the beach, it would be Catch 54!”

“I had my first delicious experience this past weekend, and ohhhhh my goodness, your chicken kabobs are FABULOUS!!! Tender, juicy and full of flavor!! 😋🫶”

“Amazing place with great workers! Highly recommended”
