Where to eat American food in Ocean City: The Best Restaurants and Bars

January 13, 2020 Deane Carmody

Reviews on American food in Ocean City, Maryland, United States. In Ocean City, Maryland's only coastal community, the beach is the main attraction. Stroll the three-mile Boardwalk along the seafront while sampling salt water taffy and other old-fashioned treats. The summer season explodes with special concerts, beach bonfires and kids' activities. Nature enthusiasts will love nearby Assateague Island, home to deer and wild ponies. Once a tiny fishing village, it now spans 10 miles, but anglers still flock to the area waters; it's known as the White Marlin Capital of the World.

It'sfun to find a small restaurant hidden in the corner of a shopping center that has food so good you better have a reservation! If you thought you should just get a house salad, better be prepared to share - it's very large, and it is so fresh! A salad and the shrimp and grits appetizer was more than enough for dinner! Speaking of which, do order the shrimp and grits. The shrimp were grilled to perfection, and the sausage slices added just the right touch of spicy. The lamb chop pops were on the evening specials menu, so look to see if they are available. If so, do not hesitate to order them. They were delicious. It's really a busy place, and we can see why after having tasted the food! It's well worth the trip to this unassuming corner of Ocean City.

The best beer and wine selection in Ocean City!!! The deli is stocked full of your favorite Boar's Head deli meat, and the sandwiches they make are just the best!!!

Reviewed By Stacey1919

My husband, daughter and I ordered deli sandwiches to take with us to the beach. The staff was friendly and sandwiches were fresh and delicious. Great variety in the offerings, also! The only reason I am giving 4 instead of 5 stars is that they were pricey for the size of the sandwich. Each of them were about $10 and I would describe them as a nice size sandwich, but by no means generously sized ones.

I'm sorry it wasn't brought to their attention, i'm sure they'd have made it right for you.Thank you for your review . We are happy that we are part of your vacation tradition when visiting Ocean City . We look forward to serving you again . And yes if anything is not up to anyones liking for whatever reason we are more than happy to make it just as you like it . After all we are human beings and not robots cooking food to order .

Reviewed By SouthSkookPorkchop

I went there on a Monday in October now that they have started their second season specials. Mondays offer 1/2 price burgers and tacos. I was not too hungry, so I opted for the tacos. I sat out on the deck because the weather was nice. There is no view, since the place is on a side street on the bayside. Table setting was nice with cloth tablecloth and napkin. Waitress was nice and efficient. She brought a nice fancy bottle of water without prompting and plastic cup. I got a bottle of Michelob Ultra ($3.95) and ordered the Mexican street corn as appetizer. It was delicious, I'm sorry my picture did not come out. Cob of corn with grill char then rolled in a mayo based sauce and covered with Mexican cheese that is like a mild version of feta. It was a little pricey at $4.95, but spot on and full of flavor. My tacos were pollo (chicken for gringos) on flour tortilla. They were big. I am a big eater and these were fat with filling. Some pico and sour cream cheese on the side with a few home made tortilla chips. My only complaint about the tacos was that the meat flavor was drowned out by all the toppings, especially the melted monterey jack cheese on top. I little tweak and I would have given a fifth star based on my common sense and realistic rating system (most people just fling out 5 stars for every place). They have a huge selection of top shelf hot sauces but I could not find plain old Texas Pete or Tapatio, so they should add these easily available common hot sauces. I will be going back because I was very intrigued by the burgers. The price was great at half off, see picture of my bill, but would be priced too high for me at full price.Hi and thanks for the nice review! Glad you enjoyed the food. The Pollo tacos have been on our menu since day one and are very popular - I'm afraid we would get a lot of backlash if we were to change the recipe! Point taken on the hot sauce bar (we do in fact have Texas Pete in the kitchen had you mentioned it). Hope to see you back! - Rick
