“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 were outside at the gazebo bar. The female bartender (sorry I forgot her name) was very friendly and fun! We had chicken nachos which were the best I ever had. We had the special crusher of the day and that was so good. If I lived here I would be here all the time.

“absolutely one of the best bars on the boardwalk with the best bartenders!!“

“Best Grapefruit Crush...Ever! Food was great too! First time visiting and will definitely 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.“

“We stayed at the Plim Plaza and ordered from the servers walking around the pool. We had a couple of drinks, a cheeseburger, a chicken Caesar wrap, and cheese fries. All of this was delicious. 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.“

“Great food and a fantastic atmosphere.“

“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.“

“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 !“

“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!“

“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!“

“One of our regular go-to’s. A home-cooked meal when you don’t want to stay home or cook a meal! Laric was our server last night. Wonderful personality, sense of humor and attentiveness. He gets 5 stars, too!“

“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“

“Great atmosphere. Staff was very friendly and food was great .“

“👍We just moved to Maryland and heard about Mio Fratello. It is such a nice place. The food was awesome and shareable. The prices were also very good. It's not a complaint at all but it would be nice if they had Cappuchino, Espresso and baked clams on the menu. Aside from that, it was an excellent experience and we will definitely be returning. This is a must go to place.“

“I had the seared tuna & my better half had the Maryland crab soup with a half pound of gulf shrimp. My tuna came with mashed tators & green beans. Everything was excellent. The cream of crab soup was fantastic. Great visit & reasonable.“

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

“I highly recommend Yellowfins!!! The crab cakes are out of this world good!!“

We have two little ones and they loved looking at the Christmas decorations and fish tank while they ate! It was a great night out for us, thank you!“

“First time at Ocean City, Maryland and I had to check out this place. I wanted to witness what the hype was about well Babyyyyyy the hype is REAL!! What a dope spot. The food was phenomenal and the drinks were on point! My fiancé and I had a blast. The atmosphere was lit 🔥 we felt like we were literally in an Exotic Island! From the live band to the place turning into a night club oh yes! Highly recommended!!
