It's part of the crab bag so you know it's good. Uriah was my bartender and he was amazing.

I am writing this so you don't make the same mistake. $40.00 for 10 overcooked, chewy, unseasoned scallops. Mushy green beans that I believe came out of a can. Find another restaurant. The service was good but the food was terrible.

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

I was so excited to go to this restaurant, their menu sounded great, and they were right on the water front. We started out with the seafood nacho, which were recommended by the waitress, but the seafood was rather Soupy to my liking. My hubby ordered the baby back ribs and he was very happy with his choice. I ordered the stuffed shrimp with a lobster tail add on. What a waste of $20. This was the first time I ever received fish that was totally overcooked and burnt on the edges. I was going to send it back and complain but didn't, maybe the chef was having a rough night? I would steer clear of that seafood dish. Victoria, our waitress, was very nice and attentive.

Marina Deck Restaurant is a casual dining establishment. It is a seafood restaurant that offers a variety of American fare, including all-you-can-eat seafood specials, a kids' play area, and a rooftop bar. I will not speak about the food here because we did not eat here. The restaurant is open year-round and is a popular spot for locals and tourists alike. It is known for its fresh seafood, friendly service, and lively atmosphere. We were here for the Ocean City Explorer cruise to Assateague Island. This was our first time here. My family of six including two young school children decided to stop here for cocktails and drinks prior to the OC Explorer departure since it was too sunny and hot outside. The upstairs bar was quiet with few customers. The downstairs bar area is very dark and also quiet in the early afternoon. I enjoyed my margarita with salted rim. My total bill excluding gratuity was $26 for the six of us.

What a winner we choose for a casual, classic, sunset deck experience! Al fresco dining with umbrella tables. We had bonus live music from next door! Highly recommend the seafood potatoes appetizer and the seared scallops on rice entree. Entrees come with a side and the big winner for the sides was the garlic mashed potatoes. Unbeatable view….just a short walk from our hotel. The only miss was the bartender couldn’t make a dirty gin martini but she let me know to send it back if it wasn’t right. It was a heavy pour but workable. Great service from Megan. Perfectly what we wanted for a nearby casual bite with an amazing sunset. Thanks Marina Deck, we will be back!

Ocean City, MD has about five restaurants with outdoor playgrounds. We frequent all of them on a regular basis. What to do when it rains? Marina Deck has an indoor play area! Imagine a fast food play place, but it's larger and the restaurant serves drinks. That being said, food was average. The play area could use a bit of updating. Don't forget socks for the kiddos (if you're there in peak of summer, that will actually be kind of a problem).

We have been going to Marina Deck for several years now. We love the upper deck, where you can sit in the open air and watch the sunset while dining. The food and drinks are good, and the staff is fun and attentive. The only real issue is that happy hour prices only apply at the bar, and not at a table. This arbitrary rule often prevents us from ordering drinks, or makes us feel that we are being overcharged when we do.

Great atmosphere! This is a must see restaurant while in ocean city! Waitstaff is great! Food was amazing. I enjoyed my chicken club, very fresh. Cocktails were great!

Stopped in last night for a dinner after taking a long day on the beaches. Was really looking forward to Josh getting a good drink and a nice meal in. So started with the blueberry lemonade with the Tito’s vodka, can’t go wrong, okie they have happy hour 3-6 so that never hurts. Then we both ended up ordering a cup of cream of crab soup, this is the first time I have to say that I was disappointed at Marina Deck, there was actually a thick layer of oil in the soup, where you could definitely tell it had become separated from the cream, and it had the consistency of being in a microwave. And I know, I know, how do I know microwave, but it was cooler on the outside edges than in the center center where it was hotter and hot hot hot. And the oil on top were kinda signs. It also had a strange texture, almost as if there was cheese in the soup, like a French onion in there which would have been fine but it was not meshing well with the oily top and the soup being just not that great temp wise. For my dinner, I ended up ordering a soft shell crab sandwich. I didn’t eat the bread but it’s $19.99 for a single soft shell crab sandwich + $1.99 to add fries, chips are included. But you can’t go wrong with a soft shell, their breading has always been great, the crab was cooked well, and not overly greasy. Overall I wasn’t disappointed, the only thing that was a little letdown was the soups but that’s considering they were $9.99 a cup so $20/2 soups that weren’t that great. Kinda sucked, but you live and learn, but every other time I’ve had their soup, it’s been one of my favorites in OC. We will definitely be back next year, we always are.
Place is a bit run down, needs updates! My son and I shared a steamer pot with three cluster and 2 blue crabs , 1/2 ribs( very small) not great, 1/2# shrimp under seasoned, 1corn and hush puppies, 2 oysters plus we added 2 more blue crab for $5 each! Food was not hot, just warm! Blue. Crabs were very small! $65 plus $10 for extra crabs for lunch! It fed us both but nothing that made you say WOW! Service is slow so don’t be in a hurry! Nothing to write home about except the view!

Unfortunately, we will not impress with the food. I ordered the calamari, which had some Parmesan cheese on it ,I wasn't too fond of but that's okay. My friend ordered the seafood wedges and it tastes disgusting. The cutlery was dirty. We ordered apple juice not aware that it was a small box juice, and the strawberry daiquiri for some reason it had whipped cream on it. The strawberry daiquiri tasted like a bad slushy with alcohol and whipped cream. I'm no bartender but,,,, is horrible. We should have known better when we entered the restaurant there was not that many people,and the restaurant next door seemed pack. The only thing that was good was The view.

I took my 10 yr old for dinner on the last night of our vacation. A friend told me to go there. Best place in 7 years of coming to OC. Food was amazing! Service was was amazing, we had Chris as a sever he was great. When we return in August we will be going back. We will be having the coconut shrimp and crab again and if possible ask for the same server Chris he knows how to cater to adults and children so all feel important when there! And have to end it with amazing muffins, you should open a bakery

They only had two waitresses, but only six tables had customers so waiting 20 min seemed like a long time. The Maryland Crab soup wasn't done and was mostly tomatoes. The steamed shrimp was ok. Probably won't go back.
