    Pan Seared Scallops.
    Donald P.

    We visited the Longboard Cafe on a Friday night in February and ate in the "enclosed patio" space since the indoor space was full (yes, in February!). It was a bit chilly whenever someone opened the door and took a little getting used to. Still, the meal was very much worth the price of admission and service was impeccable. We shared the Shrimp Quesadilla to start. Delicious and loaded with shrimp! Then we had the Pan Seared Scallops and the Shrimp Crown Imperial. We'll be back!

    I am upset that this is the first time I've been to longboard cafe!! Everything was a 10/10. Everyday happy hour: buy one get one free any drink... count me in!! The service from Lucas was also great. I also loved the ambiance with the low lighting and surfer vibes. Will definitely be back.

    Chicken Caesar with pasta salad
    Elaine F.

    I met some girlfriends at Longboard Cafe today for a mid-week lunch. I booked it because of the central location in O.C., their big & varied menu, and the fact that I could make an online reservation. They open at 11:00 am. I arrived about 15 minutes early for my noon reservation, and only a few tables were filled. But by noon, the place was packed, with several large parties. This place is really popular. The server was very nice and the food was excellent. I enjoyed the Chicken Caesar wrap. The pasta salad side was quite good, and a huge portion. Others had the cream of crab soup, a BLT, the mushroom blue cheese burger and other sides like coleslaw. One really unique thing was the asparagus--it was coated and fried like a tempura dish, but it was delicious!

    It was recommended to try this place. I'm happy I did :-) It gets really busy--definitely make reservations. There's parking and outdoor seating available. I ordered the wings (honey/Old Bay)--extra crispy!! My goodness!!! It's delicious!! The flavor was on point!!! Perfect crunch!! No need for the ranch sauce--the wings were drenched in their sauce. Yum! My orange crush was ok--I've had better. The side Caesar salad was a perfect size and good. ...wings were a hit, and I will be going back to try other flavors.

We missed Rick V. this year but with all the great attributes of Longboard he deserves a day off! See you again!

    Shrimp taco
    Rama S.

    Visited longboard after hearing very good reviews about their food. We came around 5:30 and there were no available seats since they are one of the few places that take reservations so I highly recommend making a reservation. We ended up sitting outside at a table in the sun, but it worked perfectly for us. The service at this place was 10/10. Very attentive. They had bogo happy hour on a Saturday which is amazing! The food was ok for the price. Shrimp tacos were good but immediately fell apart on the corn tortilla. The famous wings were great, crispy, and came out hot and fresh. The sauce was a little thick and made it heavy, but these wings seem to be breaded and had the texture of fried chicken instead of regular wings. Edit: I came back ordering takeout and got the buddha salad, green beans with secret sauce, burger, and wings. The food was MUCH better this time. The buddha salad was so delicious and great portion sizes. Homemade dressing was a hit too. The green beans were good and I love the sauce. Good reviews for the burger. Fries were like sub shop nothing special, but overall better experience.

    Mocktail
    Carol M.

    A group of us girls went for happy hour, we found seats at the bar. Bartender was very nice and suggested mocktails for a couple of us. He also suggested the fried asparagus it was fresh and flavorful.

    We sat outside and it was decorated beautifully. The service was consistent and the food was amazing. It was our last meal before leaving town but if I came sooner, I would have come back again just for more longboard wings.

    Baja Fish Tacos
    Kevin B.

    Wife and I visited Longboard Cafe as one of our last meals in Ocean City. You would be wise to make reservations for this place as it's difficult to get in without one. They have parking in front, it's along a strip with a couple other places. We were placed in the side corner of the restaurant which was fine for seating, can get a little loud as the table behind us was the party table and let's just say they were a little too rambuntious, but that didn't stop us from enjoying our meal. Our server, I believe her name was Whitney was outstanding! We couldn't land on what we wanted for an app but she recommended the Famous Wrinkled Green Beans. They're flash fried with a secret sweet sauce, terrific. I would get them again and again, very tasty and delicious, definitely have a good thing going with those. For my entree I got the Baja Fish tacos, they were pretty good size. Nice slaw on them and a good piece of fish. I didn't particularly care for the tortilla chips it came with, didn't exactly go with the fish tacos, would've liked the see a rice or swap it out for a potato. My wife got the St. Croix Chopped which she said was the best salad she ate on our trip, would've went back for that alone. Came with some grilled chicken, chopped greens, bacon, blue cheese, cashews, roasted corn and some Granny Smith apples. Definitely a decent place worth visiting, make a reservation!

    Longboards is one of my favorite places to come in Ocean City. Not only is the food delicious but it comes out SO FAST. The service is so nice and they really make sure that you are well taken care of. The decor inside is so cute and they have a little market where you can buy sauces and some fresh products. My family LOVES the appetizer order of green beans.... They are the perfect amount of wrinkly while not being mushy and have the best balsamic reduction on them.... I could eat a large order by myself. Things we ate: - green bean appetizer - 'longboard' style wings - kitchen sink trio appetizer - Mexican street corn - chicken tacos - cobb salad - seafood tower salad A must add to your list when visiting OCMD.

It's open Sunday through Thursday from 5:00 PM to 9:00 PM, and from 4:30 PM to 9:30 PM Friday and Saturday. My friends and I had a list of spots to try this year, and this one was at the top. We'd heard nothing but great things, so I'm happy to say it didn't disappoint. All the food was enjoyable and our server Vern made sure we were well taken care of. We kicked things off with the Cherry Bomb Calamari and the Scallops Tagliatelle. The calamari, topped with toasted coconut and served with Shanghai aioli, was good, but the tagliatelle was the standout. Perfectly seared dayboat scallops paired with housemade tagliatelle in a truffle butter sauce, with peas, pancetta, Parmesan, and a drizzle of jus gras. Rich, fresh, and beautifully balanced. Next, I tried the cream of crab soup, made with fresh Maryland jumbo lump crab meat. The flavor was rich and well-balanced, but I did encounter a few shell fragments. A truly great bowl of cream of crab should be smooth and shell-free. For our entrees, we ordered the smoked cheddar pierogies, the red wine braised short rib, and the filet mignon. While everything was delicious, the filet was by far the best. You can choose from three preparation styles, we had it blackened, and it was cooked and seasoned to absolute perfection. It's a dish I'd happily come back for.

But overall it was a good experience and we'd probably return.

The poppers came out hot, so definitely wait a little before taking your first bite. Rockfish was good and seasoned well - didn't need the sauce that accompanied the app. For my entree, I had the rockfish tacos, which were delicious. The two tacos came with a generous portion of rockfish that was topped with slaw, sauce, etc. I added some hotsauce (grab at the bar yourself) for that extra kick. I also tried some of the steamed shrimp, which was really good. Pretty simple as it just had Old Bay, but who doesn't like Old Bay?! Washed my meal down with hard seltzer (can grab yourself up front). They also have a few beers on tap. Overall a solid spot for seafood while in Ocean City.
