“Our server, I think her name was Nina, was so sweet and so helpful. We came for our anniversary and she made our first time there a wonderful experience. The food, drinks and service were top notch and the view was just so amazing! We will definitely be back!”
“Best Crabs in OC! I said what I said! I love this place in spring or summer never disappoints!”
“We took my mom there for her 80th birthday. The food was out of this world. Go hungry!! Large portions. I highly recommend the Rockefeller bread! Also the donut ice cream dessert did not disappoint! Sara was our server and she was incredible! Will be back regularly!”
“I had a gathering of around 30 people after my wedding and I received so many compliments about how kind the staff was, amazing food and how fast we received our food. I highly recommend coming to Lombardi's if you are planning a get together after a destination wedding. Kim was fantastic to work with planning our custom menu. The wait staff is by far the best in Ocean City and the owner is so kind. I look forward to coming back each year we vist from PA.”

“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.”
“Great food! hummus is the best I ever had and so is the pita. Kebap’s are superb and the prices reasonable. Chic atmosphere, super nice wait staff. They have a deal on selected wines that makes a very nice dining experience.”

“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.”
“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 !”
“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!!”
“Went there this weekend with my girls and absolutely loved it! It wasn’t super busy but the vibes were good and the food was amazing! We also had the best server ever 😛 (make sure to ask for Tory when you go) and shout out to Chris too for the group photo creds. 10/10 experience!”
“Amazing service and delicious food. It is a must visit every year during our family beach vacation. I highly recommend the hot crab roll and the crab cake! Don’t pass on the chocolate chip cookies either!”

“Golden Sands Ocean Resort was absolutely phenomenal and a great experience. They were professional and super attentive to every need during our stay! We already want to come back next year. ❤️”
“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.”
“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! Bodyguard for Muhammad Ali’s Wife - Adriano “Bubba” Almony”
“Our server, Madison, took on our large party of 14 for a special occasion. From start to finish she made sure the details were seen to despite a full restaurant and a hiccup in seating. She carefully orchestrated each person's meal down to last minute changes and boxed desserts to go. She turned what could've been a disastrous evening into a wonderful and smooth dinner party. Many of our party had never tried Carrabba's and left excited to visit again. Thank you Madison and staff!”

“My husband and I had a great breakfast experience, just a few minutes ago!! Great food - not a bunch of hoity-toity “foodie” fare - just simple dishes, sides, and combos that are prepared perfectly. Sahara Cafe is, now, on our “must visit” list! Staff is very friendly and super efficient. The cafe is homey and traditional, reminiscent of restaurants from my youth - that great diner feeling. Let’s talk about that giant cup o’ Joe… delicious, hot, and the size of a “FRIENDS” cup!! What?! Not having to wait for multiple refills?! That’s right. Not that you’d have to wait because their servers are very attentive and accommodating. Five stars, for sure! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Amazing food,cocktails and service. Paul was very attentive and wanted to make sure that everything that we needed and wanted was delivered. I cannot express how fresh and amazing each item we got danced around our taste buds. We have decided that this was the best cream of crab soup that we have ever indulged in. And quite possibly this will be our go to restaurant when we come down to Ocean City. This makes an amazing day trip from Dover to have a beautiful meal on the boardwalk overlooking the water. We also had the house salad, a frozen cocktail, and of course, an orange crush! For the price, ambience, quality of food, and excellent service. I feel like our money was well spent this day. (We came back the following week with family. I was bragging about the floating crab meat on the soup. Unfortunately it depends on the chef if you will be treated like this. I just wanted to set up proper expectations in case you do not get the same chef.)”

“Rhino Chasers, Ahi Guac, Vermicious Knid pizza. Would I recommend. Absolutely. So good. The portions are generous. We finished the fries and gauc, and could only down one slice of pizza. So full. And the happy hour Sangria was wonderful as well. Glad I finally got to try this place. Go early for immediate seating.”
“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.”
“Sofia's Italian Restaurant went above and beyond to make my surprise after-hours office get-together unforgettable. Sofia herself was an absolute delight, ensuring everything went smoothly and that we had a wonderful time. The food was incredible! The white clam sauce pizza was a standout—perfectly cooked, with a unique blend of flavors that left everyone raving. We also tried several other items off the appetizer menu, and each dish was fresh and flavorful. The warm hospitality and attention to detail truly set this place apart. If you're looking for great food and service with a personal touch, Sofia's Italia Restaurant is a must-visit! Thank you, Sofia, for making the evening so special. From your friends at RE/MAX Advantage Realty!”
“We are never disappointed at Cafe Mirage!! Whether we try the daily specials or the menu staples, the food is delicious, consistent, and the portions are amazing!! You will not leave hungry or dissatisfied!! What makes this place exceptional though, is the staff and the vibe. You are going to be met with smiling faces and be treated like a local. You’d be amiss to not experience this wonderful, family friendly local spot yourself!!!”

“Best dive bar in OC. You can't find a better class of people who enjoy the NO DRAMA sort of place with cold beers great music and lots of new people who feel like you've known them ALL your life. Baldie got your back ( Bouncer) but it's that laid back he's not there to controll but to promote the great memories and awesome times.”
“My experience at Sello’s from start to finish was top notch! The ambiance is very inviting with soft lighting & a classy interior design. I dined at the bar where Flip and Megan made our whole experience very enjoyable with their warm and attentive service. They recommended the wood-fired pizza, the Vespa, and a classic glass of Italian red wine. Simply delicious! My brother had the Linguine Fra Diavlo with succulent lobster tail and shrimp. It was outstanding. We finished out the evening with a velvety Tiramisu, and the Bianca Espresso Martini. Julian, the manager, stopped over to chat with us and made us feel like family.”
“This place is the oasis of homemade organic food along with small batch roasted coffee and a perfect refresh spot after camping at Assateague National Park and seeing the wild horses 🐎. The burritos are small but pack a mighty punch. I’d get two if you are a big eater and I’d skip the pastry case. The coffee is worth the drive. The bathrooms are private but made for tall people! As the mirrors are set very high up I could barely see myself as a 5’3” person.
Go for the burritos!
Stay for the vibe and friendly well informed staff :) Pictured is The Rise Up! Highly recommend as the chorizo is not fatty!”
“Let's start with food . I had a club sub L,T, meats cheese seem to taste totally fresh FF was hot and crispy .Now for services two young girls was working knew the menu was to point on my ordering. restaurant & restroom was clean I would totally come back next year”

“My daughters and I stopped here on a random Tuesday for dinner, while on vacation. WOW! We are so glad we found this gem. The house made cheese wheel pasta was incredible. The meatballs and spaghetti were top notch. The arugula balsamic salad was fantastic. Everyone left happy, full, and with left overs. The quality was such a great value for the price. We can’t wait to visit again next time we’re in Clearwater!”
“Had an overnight stay in Ocean City and was looking for a great breakfast spot. Sea Star Diner opens early and has fantastic food! We got one of their new Açaí Bowls and the Chesapeake Benedict (lots of lump crab meat). For the price, the service, and the quality of food, this is a must stop place for breakfast!”
“Our go-to when in town!! seated quickly. Coffee came quickly and we were not rushed to order. We had a cheese Danish ($3.99) to start. Then "eye opener" w/ meat (2 eggs over, home fries, and a ton of bacon!) $14.99. I had the creamed chip beef w/ home fries $14.99. Both servings of home fries and of bacon were very generous!! Dryden, our server, checked on us regularly and kept our coffee hot and full. Food came fast, hot and well presented. Out total bill, before tax and tip was $40.94 for to full tummies!!!! We took a carry-out box with a muffin, home fries and bacon home!”

“One of the best pizza places I’ve tried! The pizza was fresh, hot, and absolutely delicious. The crust was perfectly crispy, the cheese was amazing, and everything tasted so good. The staff was really friendly, and the service was great. You can tell they put a lot of care into what they do. It’s not easy to find a place that has both great food and great service, but this place definitely delivers. I’ll definitely be coming back and recommending it to my friends and family. Highly recommend! 🍕”
“I used to hang out with leo in the early 80 he was a cool good looing guy very smart.Sadly leo passed away in the 90s he was just setting up his medical practice.I have not been there in a long time but they always had a good economical breakfast.....His parents were still there when i visited last. Ocean city was undeveloped back then. You should have seen it.”

“We were staying a few blocks away and found this place while walking the avenue. We went the night before leaving OC and were sorry we hadn't found it sooner or else we would have been back. The place was busy for a Saturday night, and we went about 5pm and were able to take advantage of the happy hour until 6pm. We were seated upstairs right away and had drinks and appetizers to start. the entrees came shortly after, and all was good! The server (Tenijah) was great! She had a great personality, a nice smile and checked on us the whole time we were there. She actually told us that she had only been there a couple of weeks, which we found hard to believe because she was excellent. She also told us that you are open all year .We will definitely be back.”
“My better half and I walked into what we thought would be a just another diner…but we were greatly surprised! I loved the laidback atmosphere, friendly staff, especially our server, Muhammad. We arrived early enough in the morning so we had plenty of seats to choose from. We shared a golden yolk, avocado toast platter and my better half add a cleansing smoothie. The platter itself was massive as it had four eggs on top of avocado and delicious sourdough bread. What a wonderful place! We definitely will be coming back here the next time we stay in Ocean City.”

“Captain Kerry and his entire family and staff are super friendly,and know their business. Always look forward to picking up their fresh seafood. Captain Kerry is around with a smile and to lend a hand to carry something and have a chat. My all time favorite place for fresh, fairly priced.”
“Delicious Breakfast and Wonderful Hospitality! My family and I were in Ocean City helping a relative move back to Wisconsin, and we stayed at the beautiful Hyatt Oceanview Resort. My daughter and I decided to try a breakfast spot on the Ocean City Boardwalk and found Crepe Daddy — and we’re so glad we did! The food and service were both amazing, but what really made the experience special was meeting Ben, the owner. His kindness, genuine personality, and personal touch made us feel so welcome. We had a great conversation with him that truly made our trip memorable. We can’t wait to come back with the rest of our family so they can meet Ben and enjoy his delicious breakfast menu and lattes. It’s definitely a must-visit spot when you’re in Ocean City!”

“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!”
“We visited the Crab Bag Gift Shop while at the beach last month and the customer service was excellent! They did not have what we needed in our size so the manager,Julie, offered to order and ship it to us. She was extremely helpful and pleasant. The store has a large variety of anything Maryland and of course anything to do with crabs, if you haven't done so already you should definitely check it out! We also ate at the restaurant, and the crabs were some of the best we've ever had.”

“I’ve been here multiple times for barrio and it never disappoints! The pollo nachos were very flavorful and definitely a good share item for 2-3 people (or maybe even one if you have the appetite! haha)
Also got the birra tacos just as good as every other time. I think this is definitely one of the few spots in ocean city I’ve been to that’s actually worth the money!”
“An Ocean City staple! Great food and wonderful service! I definitely recommend this restaurant!”
