50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Ocean City

“We went here today for lunch and the food was delicious. They quesadillas (I got a steak quesadilla) was packed with steak and was the best quesadilla I ever had. My husband got a burger and said it was very good as well. Cute little place.“

“Great food! Best pancakes!“

“Really good ice cream, large portions, seating available, bathrooms on site, off-street parking is free (but limited, of course). Not cheap, but what is? Workers are chill. A few blocks from the beach and boardwalk—no seagulls! The wait is worth it. Wish they opened a little earlier in the day, when it’s really hot. Also, a flavor board at the back of the line would be nice.“

“Delicious ice cream and waffle cones, great customer service.“

“Goji in Ocean City isn’t the sort of place you stumble into looking for irony. It’s not the faded neon fried-dough joint, not the screaming boardwalk pizza stand. It’s something rarer—a quiet act of rebellion.

The açai bowls here aren’t health food in the sanctimonious sense. They’re a revelation. Cold, velvety purple fruit that doesn’t taste like compromise, piled high with bananas, berries, coconut, a drizzle of honey that feels almost illicit. It’s indulgence disguised as virtue, or maybe the other way around. A bowl you dig into with a plastic spoon, and suddenly you’re wide awake, sunburned, grinning, alive.

And the coffee—Christ, the coffee. In a town where “iced coffee” usually means burned diner drip poured over a plastic cup of cubes, Goji takes it seriously. Strong, dark, bitter in the right way, the kind of cup that cuts through the salt air and the sugar fog of the boardwalk. It’s coffee that respects you, that wakes you up without apology.

Together, the bowls and the coffee feel almost subversive in Ocean City. A one-two punch of clarity and pleasure in a place addicted to corn syrup and fryer oil. You leave Goji not weighed down, but lifted up, ready to walk the beach, watch the gulls, maybe even believe for a second that boardwalk towns can evolve.

Goji isn’t a trend. It’s proof that even amid the carnival chaos, someone still gives a damn about flavor, about quality, about doing things right. And that, frankly, is worth raving about.“

“I have eaten here twice. Once was in the fall, and now today, right before Christmas. The ambiance is the most charming! I loved it as soon as I walked in. Some places that are adorned aren’t kept very tidy. Jon & Patty’s is VERY clean! Never do you worry about dust or debris. The coffee and apple cider are AMAZING! You will miss out if you don’t treat yourself to one of them. I personally suggest the cider. I normally NEVER get cider anywhere… but this cider is next level! The food is fantastic… definitely try the nutty chicken salad and the sweet potato fries. Jon and Patty’s is sure to please!“

“You can't find better french fries on the boardwalk if you ask me. They're always hot and fresh and have just the right seasoning. We recommend buying a refillable bucket and then getting it filled whenever you're wandering the boardwalk. The bucket will also save you a good amount of money too.“

“I liked the atmosphere and the server was very pleasant. The wait for the food was too long. It the food was very good.“

“The coffee is great and the staff are friendly and helpful. Started every day of my recent vacation with a cup of coffee from OCC“

“For Valentine's Day weekend, my wife and I dined at the historical and exquisite Knife & Fork Inn on Friday, 2.13.26, since the 14th was totally booked. It was her first time there and mine since childhood. The menu was so extensive that it made it a bit of a welcoming challenge to focus on a particular choice. For starters, our huge portion of the Corn & Crab Chowder was the best that we have ever had and the Artisanal Cheese Plate was delectably wide-ranging. My wife loved the Halibut and my Bone-In Pork Chop was superb. Our cordial and diligent waiter, Carmen, who took service to the next level, suggested the Sticky Toffee Pudding for dessert and we were very glad that he did as it was perfectly sized to share! Before we arrived, I mentioned to my wife that this would be a top dining experience and it was more than that with the historical ambiance, service and the spectacular menu options. We will definitely be back to try some more of their varied cuisine!“

“This was an outstanding dinner experience! Everything was so fresh and uniquely prepared. I had shrimp and crab over a squid ink pasta- the sauce was delicious !!! The labne salad was excellent. The cacia de Pepe was perfect! My husbands halibut was cooked perfectly and generous portions.“

“Waitress very nice and friendly, also I love the house blend mild sauce, I ordered combo B, with snow crab legs/ head on shrimp and mussels, additional order scallops, they all so good“

“Amazing food, excellent staff. Comfortable inside and outside seating.“

“Amazing as always. My wife and I had the arancini to start which was excellent. I ordered the sea bass special with risotto and red pepper coulis and it was outstanding. My wife loved the blue cheese gnocchi with balsamic glaze. Our waitress was fabulous. 10/10“

“Great Bartenders! Matt and Mark - the best! Even better Beer! Thank you for a great evening 🍻 Highly recommend always.“

“Food was phenomenal and the service was amazing! The owner was so sweet ❤️ We are from out of town and staying a short walk away so we decided to go there for breakfast this morning and unanimously decided go again tomorrow morning.“

“The food exceeded my expectations. What's unique about this place is that they use a 3-day process to make the dough. And I can confidently say it's fantastic Pizza. The dough is incredibly light and airy and you dont full up too quickly. Staff and prices are also great“

“Freshest seafood around and great selections!“

“Employees are super nice and the ice cream is so delicious!!❤️🍦“

“Ate here with my dad last weekend and absolutely loved it. Super friendly server and the food was fantastic.“

“Great family place, good food at terrific value. Atmosphere was super for watching sports.“

“Homemade napoleon pastry is to die for all homemade and the cutest cozy place! Definitely recommend unless ur dieting😂😊🥰🥰💕“

“My black and white milkshake from he was pretty good, but not the best. The first 8 sips were like chocolate ish milk, and then finally it thickened up and started to taste like a real milkshake. Cute little spot, small milkshake wasn’t worth the $7.5 or whatever it was to me“

“Jessie’s has great coffee, friendly staff, a comfortable atmosphere. I like the addition of live acoustic music. They make amazing gluten free treats and have a very creative and unique breakfast/lunch menu. Always the right time to stop by !“

“I recommend all of their beers! I am not an IPA fan, but they have one or two of the IPAs I like, and my son, who is an IPA person, loves the ones I have brought home. Every one of their beers I have tried was great! I have only been there twice, so far, but will be back again, as soon as I can. Both times I have been there, I have been treated like I was a friend, and the Beer tenders were fantastic. I sure wish I lived closer!!! It is still an easy motorcycle ride from Galloway on a good day. Only hate leaving my dog home. If anyone has an inexpensive sidecar that will fit a Honda Interstate 1300, please let me know!!!“

“always good food and friendly staff“

“Great service fantastic food . Soups are delicious nostalgic atmosphere“

“Best Chinese restaurant around. Always friendly and food never disappointed. Live in EHT plenty Chinese but will never order from anywhere except here.“

“Great delicious tacos for less price than other restaurants according to famous people but here they beat them by a lot I love the pork rinds prepared here I went two blocks from here and what they sold was garbage but in the lokas fruits the flavor is incredible and even more so the price and kindness thank you guys for “

“Somers Point’s best kept secret! Food is amazingly great, very fair prices, and fun vibes“

“Great coffee and awesome lattes!!! Highly recommend!“

“I went on a weekend trip to the shore and needed to go to Walmart to grab a few things. I decided to get some sushi from the nearest location and was met with one of the best experiences I’ve had at a sushi restaurant.

The service itself was quick, taking only 5~ minutes to complete my entire order. The food was fresh, generously portioned, and it only cost us $20 for two rolls, an appetizer, salad and soup. The meal ended up being so good that I drove 25 minutes that same day to taste it again. All the employees had a big smile on their faces when we walked back in, and I left with a 10% coupon if we decided to go again.

Fantastic sushi, rapid service, hard to beat prices, and a bunch of welcoming smiles. Next time I visit Jersey, this will be my first stop.“

“New bread? Rando's? I have noticed some local food markets no longer carry Formica's bread. Wonder why? Not available? Still the best.“

“I wanted to share how great this spot is. My son attended Stacy’s Surf Camp and they delivered food daily to the kids. My son will not eat a burger at home but he said they were great here and ate one. Haha. I need the secret. I had to cancel a preorder due to weather and they did not hassle me and allowed me to cancel. I really appreciated that. We also went there for dessert this week and it was fast and great. Staff very kind. I highly recommend their dairy fee options which were amazing.“

“Great spot in the Fall to watch the Eagles Games outside!!“

“My sister made a reservation for my wife and I and let me tell you,I don't regret it at all!! Chef did a bang up job on both of our dishes!!! Management you could tell had his stuff in order with his staff,and our server,SIERRA,or CIERA not sure of the spelling was in the top 3 of the best waiters or waitresses I've ever dealt with very attentive,VERY ATTRACTIVE actually gorgeous ND very friendly made my wife even feel comfortable!!Anyway if ur gonna go out to eat,go to........ LA CUCINA RISTORANTE. Northfield NJ,ask for Ellis the manger if you have any problems and he will help I saw him talking to every table to make sure everything was okay!!!!! Him and that server SIERRA/ciera looked like they worked great together“

“The coziest bed and breakfast ever !

My wife and I recently returned to the Chelsea after 2 years for an overnight stay in celebration of her birthday. The staff here are so unbelievably sweet ! The day prior to our arrival I called to order champagne for our room. Not only did Lola accommodate my last minute request but she also provided balloons , a card and candy! We had the pleasure of staying in room 211 again which is has such elegance and charm. The breakfast was as tasty as I remembered including bacon, mini quiche, eggs, waffles and more. We also stopped by the bar attached to the inn for drinks and food prior to our event. The bar has healthy pours and reasonable prices.

Do yourself a favor and stay at the Chelsea when ever you are in AC“

“Mr. Wonton in EHT is by far our favorite Chinese food place. We’ve tried a few other places locally, and nothing really compares as far as the general chicken quality and taste. They also have a better dipping sauce with the steamed dumplings, and they hook you up with a bigger container than the other places would. For as long as we’ve been ordering, we’ve never had a bad dish from here. Five stars! :)“

“We were “just passing through” on our way home from an event and our new friends suggested we try this place. So glad we did! The food is the best Mexican we’ve ever had and we are Mexican food snobs! Everything is so fresh, generous portions, service is very friendly. We had fajitas, veg tacos, veg chimichanga and more. If we are in the area again we shall return!“

“I absolutely love me a good Starbucks, but this store was amazing. Service was awesome. Don’t remember my server‘s name. She was a light skin curly head girl super sweet made my Americano perfectly. The music wasn’t too loud. It wasn’t busy at all. It was a rainy day. The restroom was pretty clean. They have an outside patio setting. Their pastries appear to be freshly made nothing empty on the shelf. They were fully stacked and prepared for service. Definitely will be coming back during my grocery shopping trips“

“AMAZING tomato pie bought at Ventnor Farmer's market. Breakfast cookie awesome as well. Looking forward to trying more“

“Everything was absolutely amazing! The service was impeccable and the food oh so delicious!!“

“I can't wait to go back. We had Vietnamese fried spring rolls and curry pho with sweet potato clear noodles, shrimp, veggies, and pork wontons. It's true that you wait for your food but it's oh....so....worth it. Fresh ingredients really shine through. I live about an hour away and will go back for my birthday next month. We're talking flavorful beyond my expectations.“

“Bread an biscotti only nice thing in old neighborhood“

“Yama II sushi is the best! Probably my 5th time here in a month...best quality sushi...happy hour prices...great service (we love Joyce!) Angel Hair roll (the brianne way) the best...out of control roll, Hello Kitty roll, mango lovers roll...I could go on and on!! A def must try!! Kids love the rice bowls!! No need to dress up... BYOB or shots!!“

“Was just here and ordered two burgers , fries and a Philly cheesesteak. It does take a bit for the food, but that’s because they cook it fresh for you. The woman at the register was great.
The cheesesteak was amazing ( soooooo good ! ) ,the burgers were good too. The fries come in a huge box, I would order one per two people. I’m Definitly going to come back.“

“This place is such a VIBE....The food was phenomenal, we had the watermelon salad (oh my lord, the flavor in this was outstanding, so glad I tried it), the lobster gnocchi, and the lobster, shrimp and scallop Fra Diavolo - both excellent dishes! The complimentary bread and olive oil plate that came out before our meals was also exceptional, full of spices and flavor. We booked on Resy and were seated immediately upon arrival. The food came out quickly and the service was excellent as well. Our waitress was excellent and very attentive, and the manager and chef came to our table during our dinner to check in. The additional staff that refilled our water and cleared our plates were also very friendly. The atmosphere is upscale and the view of the marina is spectacular. Well done LaBarca we'll be back soon !!“

“Love their food,highly Recommanded!“

“Started going to Mrs. Brizzles about 7 years ago. The owner Mike & his wife are 2 of the nicest people you could ever meet. Not only are their sandwiches huge, so are their personalities. Our entire family have made it a point to get to Mrs. Brizzles while vacationing at the Jersey Shore. You will not be disappointed! Would give them 6 stars!“
