“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.“

“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.“

“My family and I frequent Bethany Beach each summer and Bethany Blues has become one of our absolute favorites. We typically order carry out but this most recent trip we decided to dine in and I wanted to write this specifically in regards to that experience. Everything was delicious, they were super busy but we still got our food quickly and correctly which is always a plus. The manager for the evening came around when our waiter informed him that someone in our party had a gluten intolerance. The manager came over and was so friendly, and knowledgeable about every item on the menu and exactly which items and sauces contained gluten and which did not. For someone to take this extra time and attention for something that at other restaurants is commonly overlooked meant so much to us, we wanted to be sure to recognize and give credit where credit was due. Thank you and we will absolutely be back on our next trip down! ☺️“

“Thank you for having your mobile stand in Tennessee. In my 54 years of life, I’ve NEVER had a burger as delicious as the one I got. I plan to try your other meal options whenever I see the truck. If the burger was that awesome, I have no doubt that the rest of the menu will be just as amazing. I hope to see you at Portobello ALOT more, you will definitely have my business 💯“

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

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

“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.“

“Our first visit there. I had shrimp and grits that were excellent. Very original Louisiana flavor. My wife had crab cakes with a house made sauce that was awesome. Our server, Luke, was fabulous also. Will definitely be returning.“

“Excellent service! Miranda and Joe took great care of us. Drinks were great, nice wine selections. The food came out very hot and delicious! We haven't been to this location in 2 years because we did not have a good experience. We are always willing to give a second chance and we're very pleased. Thanks for a wonderful evening!“

“Very cute cafe, loved the cold brew.“

“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 !“

“💜💜💜💜 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!“

“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.“

“very fresh, very tasty! first time visitor“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 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!! ““

“Excellent tacos, fajitas, burritos and margaritas! Quick service, friendly knowledgeable staff. This is officially on our list for our annual trip as a “must go!” spot!“

“We absolutely love this place! After moving here, it took us a while to find an Italian place we really enjoyed. We found Mio’s and have been thrilled ever since. The food and service are always great, even on hectic nights the servers and expeditors are always friendly and accommodating. Happy hour and lunch offer amazing deals and we enjoy the live music during happy hours (Bob Elliot has been a favorite!). And I promise, it’s totally worth it to get extra bread!!“

“Great place to have a private gathering. The upstairs venue is set with a stage and side booths. Mio's food is excellent for both buffet or sit down service. The staff are efficient, professional and fun! As a local patron, I feel blessed to have them service our community.“

“I had an amazing experience at Heidaway! The atmosphere was beautiful, welcoming, and the perfect place to relax and enjoy a meal. The staff was wonderful. Everyone was friendly, attentive, and made us feel right at home. The food was fresh, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. You can tell that a lot of care goes into every dish. I highly recommend Heidaway to anyone looking for great food, excellent service, and a fantastic dining experience. I will definitely be back!“

“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!!!!“

“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.“

“Food has always been good here. We sat on Bar side today. Waitress was excellent“

“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.“

“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.“

“the chili cheese burger is amazing. queso dip amazing. highly recommend“

“Great food and great specials“

“Best drinks and treats in town - you won’t be disappointed!“

“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“
