“Top notch customer service. The older lady at the front is so sweet. We had the pleasure of having Jennifer and Rachel wait on us, and they were very nice. They, along with other staff, checked on us, which I appreciated. The food was so good, the cinnamon bread was nice and warm. It's so nice inside. We sat near the door so it was a little chilly. The good food made up for it.“
“I had the excellent Buddha Bowl. (as shown)Large portion, variety of ingredients, fresh, beautiful. Enough to share. I'll get that again.My tablemates loved the (HH half-priced, I believe) burger as well as pronouncing the shrimp tacos to be "the best" ever eaten.My tablemate quite enjoyed the cream of crab soup. Plentiful portion, ample crab meat. (A step or two below The Narrows Restaurant on Kent Island, IMO. Plus, it was tepid.)And we all, ahem, enjoyed the Happy Hour 2-for-1 drinks which were quite generous.I look forward to returning.“

“My daughter and I went to Blue Coast Bethany as part of a girls weekend trip. It’s was absolutely FANTASTIC. The oysters were delicious and some of the freshest we’ve ever had. I had the seafood stew which had such a rich, and savory broth which highlighted the fish. My daughter had the crab cakes which were easily the best we’ve ever had. They had no fillers, all crab. Last, I cannot remember the last time we had a dinner in which the staff was not subtly nudging us to leave to turn the table over. It was a great experience, which we will not forget.“
“Fast and courteous service, I saw some reviews about the Fish and Chips, the server recommended the other items first but then said that was a good choice too. I went with that and it was good. Except one thing, the fish was left in the fryer a tad longer than needed, both ends of the piece were overdone, as it is thinner. The middle was great but I would rather the whole piece be good. Plenty of fries, cole slaw was good too.“
“Good food. Very attentive & friendly staff! Lots of windows & tv'Is. I was sad when they dropped the hummus from the menu. Limited options for folks who can't eat dairy (cheese) or ultra processed foods like beyond burgers. Please bring back the hummus or remove from the menu. A few mezza plates would be nice too. ?“
“After stumbling out of a nearby establishment leaving because of bad service. We looked up places for an afternoon beer and food. Found this amazing establishment, walked up the stairs and into the bar and instantly felt at home. Whole staff was topnotch instantly made you feel welcome. If I'm ever staying nearby again in OC, will definitely comeback!“
“True Score: 4.25 Stars Might be the best bar in Ocean City Harbor Inn is the very picture of a "hole-in-the-wall" bar. Located on the bayside of Somerset Street, it's easy to miss if passed by on a night when jukebox tunes aren't emanating from the inside, although that isn't very often. This is a must stop if you're in Ocean City if you're a bar person like myself. Thanks“
“I played saxophone at their open mic night. Great crowd! The place really rocks! Taco Tuesday tasty food. Service with a smile. Only slow because it was so packed. Local folks warm and accepting ?Parking: Rural place way out past Assawoman BayKid-friendliness: The regular crowd loves kids“
“My absolute favorite breakfast in Ocean City! I typically get the one egg breakfast with a side of scrapple. I love that they give you two slices of scrapple instead of one. The breakfast potatoes are perfectly seasoned. When the weather allows we love sitting out along the boardwalk, but sitting inside is totally fine too. The kid's meals come with a small pail and shovel and some raisins. The prices are really reasonable for what you get, especially the kids meals. We visit at least once every time we come to town. Don't sleep on this place - give it a try!“
“This has to be one of the BEST Happy Hours in Ocean City. Multiple food options and great discounts for alcohol. We recommend going here. There is a quiet and relaxing environment on the main level. Upstairs is the open bar and lively area. The nachos were a great surprise and done differently than most places. Great caesar salad as well.“
“The food was okay. The atmosphere was great. They definitely need to Get organized. We walked into the place. 3 couples walked in in front of us, and it took us 15 minutes to put our names in and it was not that busy. What are the most important parts of a busy restaurant?Is greeting the customer and getting them on the list and moving them to the bar. Much of the staff seemed to be wandering around with no direction or half hazardly doing their jobs. One of the people at our table had dropped a fork, and we literally tried to catch the bus boy several times and he just walked right by us to the point where we had to go get our own. Walking back from the bathroom. A waiter placed a tray stand directly in front of me and placed a tray on it, cutting off the path to the point that I had to walk around half the restaurant to get back to my table.For the record, I have about 30 years front of house experience In an extremely high volume restaurant.“
“A group of 6 of us had dinner here this weekend and very much enjoyed it. We ordered the garlic shrimp appetizer, steak skewers, the Star salad, crab cakes, the scallop bacon corn soup, and cream of crab soup. Everything was excellent. Our server was very attentive as well. We were told this was a fairly new chef so if you've been before, the menu has changed, they have specials, and it's really good food for a good price too. Also, they have a fireplace, lots of windows, vaulted ceilings, water and a pretty view. It's a small place so I recommend reservations.“
“I saw the Eagles barely beat the Commanders here on 10/01/2023 during Ocean's Calling. The place was packed with Bills fans but they were great. Food was good, service was great, the staff was getting hammered but they held up just fine. We will definitely stop by again next time we're in town. To the owner, I tried to bring the Eagles energy up as best I could.“
“We got hooked on this place when we bought our vacation home in West OC and were doing renovations...we got Uber Eats to deliver from here repeatedly while working on our house and everything was to die for. We finally decided to go check the place out and dine in, and what a surprise! I wouldn't say Chinese restaurants are typically beautiful but this one is! Very clean with tasteful decor, their staff is always so kind and helpful. Everything we've ever gotten here is amazing. The plates look like a work of art when delivered to your table, the extra touches are sweet! Highly recommended visiting here, definitely dine in for the lovely atmosphere.“
“A nice local event, restaurant and bar. The staff were friendly. The food was delicious. The views were absolutely amazing. Fager’s Island is located one street over from the Marriott Residence Inn, and is a very easy walk. We went for lunch and drinks and sat at the bar. Even though we were there in March (way before the start of their tourist season) they were very accommodating. I would recommend you give them a shot.“
“We stopped by because we were thirsty and will come again. Super friendly and efficient bartender. Good selection of draft beers and each time we were given a new frosty mug. Didn't try food but saw kitchen making hand formed beef burgers and what was coming out of kitchen looked good. It was nice that the volume wasn't too loud so we could have a conversation.“
“me and my partner had the crab cake egg rolls and wings for appetizers and for our entrees he had the steamed shrimp and I had the deadliest steam pot. the food was great just a bit pricey and the service was a bit slow the restaurant wasn’t too busy either but we waited awhile for even our waters. would come back for the tasty food though!“
“Great local people, great live music, bartenders are fabulous.... many pool tables and alot of locals are fantastic at pool. Every time we go here we meet new people and have a great time. Drinks are reasonably priced as well. I love it here, can't wait to go back. They do not serve or have food however, but you can order out and take food in.“
“This place is pretty awesome. Just off the south end of the boardwalk and definitely a solid dive bar. Every time I'm in OC, it's a must stop location. No food and a decent draft beer selection, but seems they have gone cash only during busy times - not my favorite but works. Definitely worth a stop if you're around!“
“Wanted to try Anthony's hoagies and finally got a chance to. We ate at the bar and had a beer on tap. Great selection. For lunch I had the Nautilus . Excellent hoagie fresh baked rolls , similar to Philly and South Jersey. Friendly staff and our bartender she was great. I highly recommend to get the OCMD experience.“
“Great place for food and drink on a Saturday afternoon in December. Brandi makes superb Makers Mark old fashions. Bonus Saturday, the oyster guy was there and we enjoyed fresh caught oysters for a reasonable price! We'll be coming back for sure - thank you.“
“A shining gem on 54. Enjoyable atmosphere and food. We have never been disappointed whether it be a large party with family or a quick happy hour bar stop. Relaxing and enjoyable. Grab a vino and happy hour item and you won't be disappointed. Cheers Mio's !!“
“This has great deals, great food. A diner and bar is awesome. Tacos, awesome nachos with fresh ingredients, an awesome fish sandwich, fried clams, crab cakes to name a few.Visited again in December 2023 got a burger and fries, & a Boston Sidecar. Our waiter seemed like he was one of the all ones there but he did a great job. Bar and restaurant.Parking: There's a free lot it's like in a gas station parking lot and there's few other stores there like a mini mall.Kid-friendliness: It's a bar and restaurant.Wheelchair accessibility: It's on the ground floor so easy access to get in.“
“Running errands 2 hrs from home. Did an internet search for somewhere to stop for lunch and this was the 2nd place that popped up. What a find!!! Asked for recommendations and the Bahn Mi sandwich did not disappoint! Service was great and the food even better!!! Glass of wine didn't hurt either and it was delicious! I'd drive the 2 hours from home to revisit this place for lunch again!“
“Seacrets is always so much fun!We ended up going here on the Orioles opening day. The food is good and the staff are friendly and helpful. Live music is good too.Parking: There is a small parking lot but it fills up fast when it gets crowded.“
“I had an amazing time at this restaurant. The food was amazing and didn’t take long to get the table after order somewhere around 10-15 minutes. I ordered the Hungry Monkey and did a small upcharge (I believe it was around $1) to change the pancakes to Cinnamonkey. The server was quick and attentive and made sure we didn’t need and more refills. The atmosphere was a little on the noisy side (you hear the murmurs from other conversations). Overall worth the go!“
“Went to watch the final four games and we were not disappointed. Plenty of parking and we were seated by one of the tvs as requested. Our server Isabella was pleasant and made suggestion. We ended up ordering some old bay wings and drinks. The wings were crunchy and delicious. Will be back before going back north.“
“Great food and great service. We had the steam pot and some blue crabs and everything was near perfect! The crabs were fat and tasty! Highly recommended if you're looking for a laid back not on the board walk place to have crabs in Ocean City!“
“Another wonderful meal at Parkway! This is far and away our favorite Resteraunt in Bethany. We usually sit at the bar with a lot other locals where Todor and Vic always provide us with great service and drinks. Last night I had the lamb chops which were perfect and my wife fell back to her favorite, the squid appetizer as her dinner. Never a disappointment! I hesitate to tell how good this place is because I don't want to ruin it for us regulars. Stay away!“
“I saw the band Pop Stereo at the saloon and had the most fun I’ve ever had at the saloon. Wes was the absolute best bartender accompanied with a great live band. I wasn’t expecting a winter performer to be so great. The lead singer blew it out of the park and the band sounded great. I would return every weekend with this band and this amazing bartender. Thank you Purple Moose for a great winter get away (better than the summer bands, seriously!!)“
“Had a great meal and awesome service by Brittney. The Scottish Salmon was excellent and Brittney was extremely attentive to our table. Will definitely ask for Brittney the next time we visit the Big Fish Grill in Ocean View. We also met Tiffany the General Manager who checked in on us to make sure we were satisfied with our service and meal. Tiffany was very kind, polite and welcoming! Definitely BFG is our go to restaurant in Ocean View!“
“What a fantastic place. A Bethany institution, no less. I don’t even know where to begin celebrating this place. It’s unpretentious, honest, authentic, genuine, well-priced. It’s the only of maybe two places in Bethany that you will find with regular locals. The owner, John, is the Man! One of the nicest guys on the shore. The portions are huge and the price has changed maybe once in the past few years. You won’t find a heartier, more honest place in the area.“
“Kirby's Pub in Ocean City is a haven for those seeking a relaxed atmosphere paired with outstanding food. The steamed shrimp and wings are a definite highlight--flavorful and addictive! Jill and Mark are the heart of this place, effortlessly juggling customer care and entertainment, making every visit memorable. This is THE spot to unwind by the beach, indulge in fantastic food, and soak in the vibrant yet laid-back vibes. A must-visit for anyone in search of a perfect hangout spot!“
“Stopped here briefly for a drink and to check the place out. It is part of a hotel so the pool is for those guests only. The bar sits up high for great views and the stairs may be a little tricky for those who may become a little tipsy. It is a cool little place with easy Boardwalk access and a fun vibe. I'm sorry I didn't get to try any of the food.“
“Had a great time here this past weekend. Despite seemingly only two people working and the place being very busy, they did a great job and we hardly had to wait long for food or drinks. It’s a great place to watch sports too. We will be back.“
“Realize what this place is - a small bar located in the atrium of the Quality Inn. You're within earshot of the tropical birds they have on display, as well as anyone enjoying the indoor pool. The food selection isn't huge, the food is pretty standard bar fare, and the seating area is small.But if you're staying at this hotel and are exhausted after a day at the beach or touring the boardwalk, this place is a lifesaver. You don't need to worry about finding a restaurant or cooking your own food - just make your way down to the atrium, have a seat at the bar, and let the friendly bar staff take care of you. The burgers are juicy (they were out of fried shrimp during my visit unfortunately), the fries are pretty good too, and the drink selection was decent. Reasonable prices, too. Next time I stay at the Quality Inn, you can be sure I'll be paying their in-house bar a visit.“
“My husband and I went out for a date while at the beach and we stumbled on this gem! It had a great atmosphere! Richelle was our server and she was great. Friendly and attentive. She had many tables and juggled them all well! The bacon cheese fries were some of the best I’ve ever had! I had the salmon and my husband had the fried oysters… both were delicious! The bread pudding for dessert was a great ending!!“
“Me and my husband visited this location while passing through. We were met with wonderful service and great food. We had a wonderful view of the water while we ate some fresh steak blue crab. I will say it was a little cold in the building, but other than that, wonderful experience!“
“Our first time at Mio's and it was Great! Jeannie was our bartender and made us feel welcome immediately. The food was perfect and the other guests were fantastic. What a wonderful place for a long afternoon lunch! We will be back often!“
“It was really good. Had live music and a great atmosphere. I personally had the plain Jain burger and fries and it was amazing. Best fries I have had in a very long time, nice and seasoned. I tried some fish from my aunt, and it was really good as well. Would def go again.“
“Been here an hour, have had no less than 5 employees ask me how I'm doing. So much appreciate that. Great beer selection (ok I'm an ipa guy) for a small place. Has that neighborhood bar feeling, and cool even though I'm from 20 miles out. Thumbs “
“My husband and I go here twice a week on average. What keeps us coming back? Everything. The service is consistently good. We are always sat promptly and every server here has been kind and attentive. We love Chelsea and Meghan! Then, there's the food. I love the specials this chef puts together each week. There are always new apps and new sandwiches and entrees to choose from, along with the regular menu items. This menu has something for everyone, too. There's steak, fresh fish, burgers, beautiful huge salads and delicious desserts. We especially love their steak tacos and fresh fish bites. The drink specials are great too. $3 Guinness and $4 house wines for happy hour. And one more thing - the chicken and waffles for brunch is awesome. We love this place and literally have never had a bad meal there.“
“If you are in the area of Fenwick, De. check this place out, you won't be disappointed. My colleague had the battery rockfish, which he said was amazing and perfectly cooked.I had the cowboy burger and it was one of the best I've had in a long time. Perfectly cooked to order, fresh and french fries were so delectable.The service was from our bartender was great, she was doing so much with taking care of tables and tending bar, but I never felt like I was overlooked.“
“This place is a great place to visit for a good drink, especially frozen drinks. Their special shot called Love Juice is so good, they make it with all natural ingredients and fresh fruits. They also have bucket drinks that are a great addition. I’ve never had the food here, despite visiting here a couple times in the past few years but I’d trust it’d be decent bar/snack food to hold you over. Staff has always been very nice and accommodating.“
