    The food always has the freshest tastes and fabulous flavors. Menu is as varied as could be. Something for every taste bud.

    Yummy food! It's a food truck/trailer but I've never been dissatisfied with anything I've ordered.

The smallish dining area offers privacy and the quietness to carry on conversations. We still look forward to going there after many years.

    As you can see from my more than ten past reviews over 4 years and my last review in August 2025…read morethis is now one of my top three happy hour restaurants during the off season. I will summarize my four most recent happy hour off season visits. We were first here at the bar with my six family and friends. Well finally the off season happy hour half price dinner entrees have finally returned here starting around mid October with pretty much the same entrees and menu as last year. They subsequently updated the half price entrees in early November. All items have pretty much returned here except for some new entrees. The good news is that at least two new half price happy hour dinner entrees were added including the surf and turf with espresso encrusted 4 ounce demi filet mignon with two skewered shrimps, yukon mash, tomato garnash with blue cheese in the middle of the tomato for $40 or half price for only $20. I never had espresso encrusted filet mignon, therefore I ordered and enjoyed mine medium rare. I could barely taste the encrusted espresso. I ended my dinner with my favorite Fiddlehead's draft honey porter for $6. My total bill was $111 with half price discount of $36.50 so my final bill was $77. On my second return I enjoyed my ahi tuna rice bowl with broccoli, ginger fried house rice, sprouts and ginger vinaigrette for $36 or half price for $18. My total bill was $72 excluding gratuity. On my third return I again enjoyed the espresso encrusted 4 ounce demi filet mignon, which I had ordered medium rare, but was over cooked to medium. I did not complain about returning my filet for a replacement, however I did show it to bartender Dennis. Next time I will order my filet rare. On my fourth return I enjoyed my usual cosmos and my ahi tuna rice bowl which was always properly cooked ahi style. Bartender Dennis always remembers I prefer a little extra spice, without me even asking for my Sriracha. Dennis recommended both of the above entrees. See my most recent pic of the new menu. Chef Cowan waved to me at the bar. Bartender Dennis served us very well supported by our usual excellent recommendations and conversations. Chandra and Cameron also said hello. The staff here are very professional, knowledgeable and friendly. On Black Friday I purchased another $1k in gift cards for the off season from Off The Hook and Hooked in OC. Needless to say we will continue to return here for happy hour to spend our $1k.

We decided on the Crabby Pretzel, a soft salted pretzel with a side of crab dip. The pretzel was not the freshest (it was kind of stale and hard).

After walking around Bethany Beach we stopped for what we hoped would be a quick lunch at Shore Break -a snack bar on the boardwalk. A hot dog with sauerkraut ($4) and two fish tacos ($11) seemed like a safe bet. We ordered at a window on one corner of the building, and the young man at the counter opened up a few containers in vain searching for their stash of sauerkraut. Well of course there was none to be found. So we switched our order to a plain old hot dog with nothing on it. After we ordered, we went to a different window at the back wall of the stand and waited for our number to be called, and after a few minutes of people watching on the boardwalk, we heard "Number 26". That confused me because in addition to the fish tacos (more on them later), I was handed two hot dogs with ketchup instead of one hot dog with nothing. The young lady who gave me the wrong order was not very friendly, and to be honest was rather gruff and rude. It took a long time to get the plain hot dog. Now for the fish tacos -they were very disappointing for an $11 order. They were, in plain terms, a single fish stick on a flour tortilla with some lettuce, tomato, and cheese. Add in a bag of chips and a pickle spear, and its hard to justify $11 for that.
