“One of my favorite and have to go places when I’m in ocean city. Best service, amazing food and the absolute best waffles! I would wait all day for a seat. That’s how good the food is.“

“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.“

“Never a bad time at this place. Friendly people and friendly help. May not look like much and has a dive bar feel. Would recommend you stop, have a drink, put a dollar up on the ceiling, and buy a sticker that says you were there. You can't go wrong with the oldest bar in OC.“

Our server was Madison J and she was great! Always checking to see if there was anything else we needed, very friendly and always smiling.“

“Such a chill, cool place to hang out when looking over the beach. Alex was so great in his recommendations. So enjoyed his rum punch today. Came with our pitbull, Lily, today. He gave her a treat and even gave us hope he made the drink we wanted so we could go back to our hotel and imbibe. Right now we are having it on our balcony, listening to beach vibe music. Thanks Alex! We will be back. : )“

“We had dinner on the top deck of the restaurant and the view was spectacular of the Bay. My husband ordered the biggest soft shell crab sandwich that we've ever seen and I ordered the crab imperial which was huge and all crab meat, no filler. Both meals were excellent. Our waiter, Dallas, was super nice and very attentive. We would recommend this restaurant highly“

“Right on the bay where we had a hotel wonderful little 50-yard walk maybe always kept clean the services very friendly laid-back outdoor seating they have music like Thursday Friday Saturday. We did have a sandwich there. It was good at average prices we've gone there almost every evening just to sit back and relax play some cards and listen to music.“

She was absolutely fabulous to work with, friendly and professional. I highly recommend if you get here to ask for her.“

“We love stopping here. Great staff, fun atmosphere & tasty food. Our favorite location is on the boardwalk so you can still enjoy the beach weather while dinning. The staff really makes this place in my opinion. Its a must stop bar/restaurant when we are in town. Monster margarita is just that and the burritos are HUGE. Thanks Guidos Burritos !“

“On Monday, August 4th, we had a party of 18 for light fare dining and drinks. Our server, Nikki, was exceptional. Professional, accommodating, super nice and was so efficient. Our food was delivered timely and everyone was pleased with the quality and temperature of the menu items ordered. Not an easy task for such a large party and on a very busy night. Drinks orders were also served timely and were delicious. Thank you Thomas, Nikki and staff for a wonderful evening.“

“Lovely place. Would go again“

“It was a great experience at OC chopsticks, Asian Bristo“

“This place is a hidden gem, a little hard to find, but once we were here we enjoyed sitting outside on the sandbar, live music, and a beautiful view of the bay. The service and food was amazing. We tried the shrimp quesadilla, fish tacos, crab cake tacos, crab dip fries, and a noodle bowl with shrimp. Everything was so delicious!!! Ignore old reviews, that was not our experience at all! Give this place a try!“

“We ordered the flounder fish sandwiches and fries. Best fish sandwich at the Ocean. Found this hidden gem on our way to Assateague. Will be back every year can't wait to try the onion soup. Great atmosphere even when we came in not packed, ppl laughing, and music was playing. The staff was great! Next time we will dine in!“

“Our third time there - always great! Our server Monica was terrific. Friendly and attentive staff. Food was a bit expensive but was great! I had two oyster shooters, my wife had a cherry lime aid crush - excellent. I had the scallops and my wife had braised short ribs. All cooked perfectly. We were given a nice choice of tables on the bay. Wife had the mud slide cake for dessert. Very yummy. Hard to find solid places to eat in OC. This one has held up quite well. Will be back again!“

“The food and service were great!“

“Olena is amazing!!! Busy as she was she still took care of everyone in a very timely fashion. ❤️“

“We spent 5 hours here Wednesday. What a cool atmosphere. Our servers were great. I can't remember our first servers name but she was great. Juan was our 2 nd server during happy hour. He was great too. The food and drinks were delicious. The music was awesome. Love that they have music all day.“

“great place great staff . Chicken cheese steak best in ocmd“

“We stopped at Reel Inn on a whim because the weather was too beautiful not to sit outside, and it ended up being our favorite meal of the trip! Tucked bayside in the Harbour Island Association complex, the vibe was lowkey with a gorgeous view. Our server Natalie was super friendly, and everything we ordered was excellent, the mozzarella sticks were classic but perfectly cooked, the Assawoman combo (scallops, shrimp, and tuna bites) was outstanding, the chicken sandwich had amazing sauce, the fries were hot, the coleslaw was delicious, and the drinks were great. Truly a wonderful night, and we’d absolutely go back.“

“So we were on vacation and actually went here an hour before they closed. The food was hot and fresh, good portions. I got the fish tacos and they were so good with a little spice. I also got the mermaid Mojito and that was amazing. We were able to sit outside and enjoy the night air while we ate. Definitely will go back next time we are in Maryland.“

“A true staple for the beautiful ocean city. I like when I’m here. The vibes are always great and there’s a little something for every one in this magical place. If you’re looking for a good meal the ribs are a real treat! The beer is served cold and their house made drinks are worth a shot if you’re feeling adventurous! The only snafu I had was using a walkie talkie while I was there and I disrupted maintenance’s station, and for that I apologize and hope they can forgive me. But when you come to ocean city make sure you stop by at this location for the opportunity to make memories that will last a lifetime.“

“I was coming off the beach and wasn’t feeling well a young lady on vacation with her family stopped to help me. We got to the steps of Lennys and asked them to get me some water. The sweetest waitress helped me to the bathroom and offered to wait for me. Your guest waited at the foot of the steps and watched my belongings. I didn’t catch either of their names and other staff could have been involved I was pretty dizzy and not feeling well at all. I just want you to know how awesome your staff is and will always be thankful. I live in NC and visit my mother here every summer and will continue to visit Lennys yearly. This happened today Aug 23, 2022 3-4 pm. Thank you again to the sweetest, kindest waitress!“

“Mother's has an amazing happy hour and perfect atmosphere. The soft shell tacos rock. I'll always come here when I visit ocmd. Kelly is an awesome bartender, and I appreciate all the staff here for being so friendly and attentive.“

“I recommend coming to their happy hour. Smaller menu but great food and drink prices are very reasonable!“
