“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.“

“Happy Jacks is absolutely the best breakfast restaurant anywhere and they have the most amazing staff and food. We never go anywhere else and it's even better now that we live here. My son, Woody has Down Syndrome, and as parents you always worry how he will be treated, well I can tell you from the very first time we walked into Happy Jacks he was treated with respect and true affection. He now knows all the staff, for his birthday then brought him his pancakes with a candle and they sang to him. And one of the waitresses is his Bff and they spend time together outside of her work. It truly is a family affair.“

“Great food and great customer service“

“This is my favorite restaurant in the entire United States. I’m a career bodyguard who has been in the security sector for 13 years. I’ve been to close to all 50 US states and this restaurant tops the list! Kurt the Manager is one of the best humans you could ever encounter in your lifetime!

“The food was great as well as the service from beginning to end. Martin was our server and he was so kind and patient. His mannerisms and service was impeccable. We definitely more people like him. Will definitely be back!! Me and my family enjoyed everything.“

“Claire and Hannah, baristas, are AWESOME!! We were in town and had breakfast for four mornings here!! We asked Claire if we could take Rise Up Coffee home with us. She gave such a beautiful smile. This is a busy shop which serves great breakfast and super coffee. If you enjoy vanilla yogurt, we suggest the Banana Splat Bowl. And if you like skillet potatoes, give them a try. YUM!!! This is gem and an extraordinary shop. We loved coming here early every morning!!! They open at 6:00 am everyday.“

“We ate there today. Food was delicious as always and our server was Claudia who was awesome and very attentive. I don't think you can go wrong with anything on the menu. We will definitely be back.“

“Say it with me “ah-sign-ee” Pablo’s is a MUST when in OC.“

“I have been going to Malias quite literally…. every single visit I’ve taken to ocean city….Since 2013. Which is a lot of visits….. We come down at minimum for every Cruisin car show in spring and fall, and used to often visit 1-2 separate other times through out the summer season. Several of the waitresses always remember us, as did our waitress this past weekend. They are hands down my favorite breakfast place in the area. Never had a bad meal here, and anyone I’ve ever brought has always wanted to go back again during our trip.“

“We just love the food and service at Rice! Food is excellent.“

“bagels are good, however waiting at the register for 6 minutes while the employees are chatting about their lives is annoying & there's 5 peoole behind me also waiting. This happens frequently.“

“Hands down the BEST Italian meal we’ve ever had. We had Mozzarella in Carrozza, so delicious. My husband is a self-proclaimed veal snob and he said the veal Marsala was absolutely the best he’s had (and he’s had a lot fro over!) I had the Tagliatelle alla Bolognese. The pasta was clearly made fresh and cooked perfectly. The bolognese was so flavorful but not heavy. Portions are refreshingly sized appropriately and so completely satisfying. Generally we’re not dessert eaters, mostly due to being overfilled by oversized portions. Ordering dessert from Ristorante Antipasti was a forgone conclusion. I don’t know which was better, the Chocolate Lover’s cake or the Vanilla Butter Cake. Been coming to Ocean City for years and this was our first visit to this restaurant and now tops the list of favorites. Loved everything about it, atmosphere was relaxed but elegant, met the owner who was delightful and appreciative. Highly recommend!!“

“The Maryland crab soup is the best I have ever had ! The Sunday night crab cake special was delicious - crab cakes - all limp and fries - yum !“

“Where I dive into Ocean City’s finest Cioppino.“

“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 açaí bowls! My husband had the regular one this morning and I got the Pineapple Express. Amazing!!! Quick friendly service. Very nice young man. Love the stickers they sell, too. I bought the awesome creative one in the attached pic with our açaí bowls! We’ll be back! Highly recommend!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I cannot say enough amazing things about Fishtails! My son and his father recently ate here while visiting Ocean City, and after he came back home to St. Mary’s County, we realized his phone had been left behind. When I called the restaurant, not only did they confirm they had it, but the manager, Johnny, immediately offered to send it back to us. He asked for my address and shipped it straight to our home — no charge, no hassle, no questions asked. In a world where good customer service is hard to find, this went above and beyond anything I could have expected. This level of kindness, honesty, and genuine care for customers is rare, and it speaks volumes about the type of people who run this restaurant. Even though we live hours away, they treated us like locals and family. Thank you so much, Johnny and the team at Fishtails, for going the extra mile — you’ve earned a lifelong fan in me, and we’ll be sure to visit every time we’re back in Ocean City. 🌊🐟💙 From my son: “I really enjoyed my time at fish tales,the food is great,service is also great,and I even left my phone there 4 hours away and they shipped it without any trouble. This is a really a good place, I would 100% recommend!! ““

“Great Italian dishes with superior service we have been going here for 6 years. Delivery tonight was 5 stars!“

“I love tea boss!! I wish I had it where I live, I’d be getting it 24/7! The only place that I will get sushi from!! And the tea's…AMAZING!! If you are in Ocean City I highly recommend that you come here and try out the food and drinks!!“

“The outdoor dining area was great! Our service was great, Emma was attentive and so nice. The blackened ahi tuna tacos were amazing!! Would definitely recommend 💯 our whole table was pleased with their food“

“Wonderful!!! Always good and hot!!!! Our family loves this place!!!!“

“Oyster Rockefeller and bacon wrapped scallops were the best! The swordfish mashed potatoes and green beans was a banger too. So glad we stopped here on our last night. Everything was so delicious!“

“Started with the tour of the distillery. It was worth every penny (only 15 pet person). The tour guide was great, they really committ to the prohibition theme. The tastings are delicious and I even bought a bottle to take home.
Had dinner afterwards. Food was really good. Got the pushcart trio, the sausage and beef are the absolute best and the plantains were cooked well. Went in early May so it was still off season. Definitely recommend the tour and dinner here. Beautiful water front seating. Love the sand and tropical theme throughout the place.“

“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.“

“I have been going to Pho-Char for about 2 years on a regular basis. The owners do a phenomenal job staying on top of everything. The place is always clean, organized, and well kept.

The food is amazing. I have yet to have even a mediocre meal here. I typically always get the pho, but the fried rice is excellent, appetizers are great, and everything is always supurb.

Highly recommend this place for pho lovers. I love supporting mom and pop shops and what seems to be a husband and wife are always there working extremely hard.“

“I am local and eat here at least once a week during season. I try to get something different every time and haven't been disappointed yet“

“So many options to pick from on the menu. Kayla our waitress was one of the best we had all week. All the food came out quick, and drinks never went empty. Added this to our list of must stops when we are in town.“

“An excellent seafood restaurant!! First time there and we’re blown away!!! Great job, Blu!!“

“Went for the first time lamb biryani was delicious 😋“

“As a non-drinker, my review is based solely on my love of the Greene Turtle. Honestly, I just enjoy the menu which has been pretty consistent for years. I love the buffalo chicken sandwich, crab pretzel, and on my last visit I had the cheese steak egg rolls. All in all, delicious. I have friends who go for sports and just to sit at the bar, they really enjoy the atmosphere for that reason. The Original really gives college bar vibes.“

“We always love our pizza but tonight called for a review! As the only server, Taylor was working really hard keeping up with an off season crowd. We really appreciate being able to get our favorite pizza with amazing service. We appreciate the staff and hard work. Taylor was the name I got but the whole crew was bustin butt together tonight. Thank you!!“

“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.“

“First time there, ever, even to any 'local' Pinera Bread. We don't have any near by. Over an hour away! This area is definitely in need of a local Pinera bread!! loved it.“

“02/'26 Went here for Valentine's Day dinner. Service was excellent along with food choices. Price is reasonable when you consider all that's offered. Prime rib and shrimp= surf & turf at other places is in the $40 range, so $45 for AYCE plus drink & dessert is reasonable. Desserts were endless and they were even making fresh donuts! They offer all kinds of fried seafood and chicken, barBQ ribs & pulled pork, steamed shrimp & oysters on half shell. If you're a vegetarian, their are some options, but this is really for the seafood/meat lovers. Can't wait to go back.“

“Obviously not getting a NY bagel, but it was fine as bagels go. The 3 stars is for how do you not cut bagels with cream cheese in half?? So strange. Good coffee though.“
