    Let's begin with the fact that this restaurant is either super busy at times, and also has…read morepractically no business most of the time. Our service was at best hit or miss. Our meals were average at best and were mostly boring examples of the same old pub type menu. My advice if you're looking for a place close to the Eastern Shore . Ambience was 3 stars , service 3 stars and food at two stars. Perhaps if there were a manager on duty they might have gotten a better review. As always another visit hopefully would see improvement.

    I've been coming here for the past 2 years, and the food changes are incredibly disappointing…read more I used to rave about most everything on the menu. They used to have good portions and really good juicy burgers, and their fries were good too. The fries changing led to the burgers changing, and then the rest of the menu followed. I'd come here a lot when it was worth it. Now the food is usually overcooked or just charred completely. The fries are hand cut now but have become someone else's acquired taste because to me they're just greasy and usually overfried. The portions have gotten smaller and smaller, and the salads have gotten outrageous. It's barely a side salad amount for $15, just spread out in a large flat-bottomed bowl. While the owner's/ manager's clearly either put your kitchen staff under duress, and they no longer like cooking, or you've fired the ones who cared about the food being great. I'm also thinking they changed supplier or got cheaper with their ordering because the ingredients have also suffered in quality greatly. The drinks are very pricey no matter what you get. Also, the receipt lists the gratuity percentage incorrectly, which just seems kind of mean and nasty, so shame on the owners for that one. I will always tip my server well... Don't lie to me to pay your workers...you should pay them more. Either way, you're trying to trick me into tipping more so you don't have to pay your waitstaff because they didn't make enough money which is pretty foul. I wish people were better.

    I was making a pit stop on my way to OCMD so I decided to make a mini trip out of it. I planned…read moreahead and decided on Bill's for dinner. Parking was easy. There is a small lot behind the restaurant. It was easy and there was plenty of parking since it was the off season. I did not have a reservation but, I was seated as a party of one pretty quick. The tables were draped with white table cloths, a nice table side light, sweeteners, tall clear glasses with a black napkin and tall salt and pepper shakers. The walls were a darker and lighter gray, hues of black and whites scattered throughout. I was in love with the old photos and the black and white prints throughout. There was a stunning glass sculpture hanging from the center of the dining room. It maybe a Chihuly glass chandelier. If it is not it resembles it. Hues of amber, orange and whites. My waitress came over within a few minutes and took my drink order. She informed me of the specials and brought over some bread, butter and herbed oil. I just had to try the cream of crab. On the menu it states it's a tight lipped recipe. The cream of crab was delicious. They have done their own spin on it. It came out piping hot. It had a slight kick to it, as if there was some sort of pepper in it... jalapeño? Could just be regular ground pepper. Overall, it was pretty good. My meal came with a choice of salad. It was either a garden salad, Caesar salad or tropical salad. I ordered the garden salad with ranch dressing. The salad was ok. Nothing to rave about. It had shoestring carrots, two cherry tomatoes and 2-3 types of lettuce. It did the job. I had the waitress choose my main dish for me. I could not decide. It was between the stuffed shrimp (stuffed with crab imperial), or the crab cakes. I opted for the vegetable of the day which was green beans. My waitress surprised me with stuffed shrimp, broiled. I'm so glad she went with the broiled vs fried option. She said it was the best way to go. The crab imperial was creamy and flavorful. The shrimp were a little on the smaller side. I personally did noThe green beans were nicely seasoned. For dessert I had the waitress choose agin. A choice between their strawberry shortcake which was a special, white chocolate coconut cream pie, or the vanilla crème brûlée. She chose well, the coconut cream pie. It was so good! I saw other tables around me being delivered their food and everything looked really good. This place is definitely a popular eatery. They will remain on the list to come back.

    First the good is amazing wife had filet mignon and I had the scallops absolutely delish!!!
