    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!

    Chicken Caesar with pasta salad

    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!

    Had a very good experience at Longboard. Food at dinner was good. The hamburger buns, made in-house, are particularly good. They have both indoor and outdoor seating. The fact that the waitress came to our table just before Happy Hour ended and told us "I can get you another beer for free with our Happy Hour 2-for-1 special if I order it before 6:00pm." took them from four stars to five stars. One funny odd thing...I thought that it was standard that the shaker with more holes is salt, and the one with less holes is pepper. Longboard does it the opposite. I thought it was odd, and the table next to us had the same observation.

    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.

All meals came out marvelously delicious The Happy Hour 5-6 delivers with a Buy one get one and the table hit the Tri-Fecta for deserts 1-Gooey Bar 1- Fatal Brownie 1-Lemon Lasgna Tricia our server is always friendly, attentive and menu informative she's definitely a mainstay at long board! We missed Rick V. this year but with all the great attributes of Longboard he deserves a day off! See you again!

    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.

    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.

    Longboard wings

    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.

    Breakfast was amazing! There are no complaints to give. Just expect a lengthy wait, for my family…read moreof five's meals, we wait 40-45 mins. They actually got so busy, so some orders got mixed up, they chose to give us extra food for the trouble. We placed a to-go order, there wasn't much waiting room however, the manager was very accommodating and constantly checked on us. We ordered the French toast, scrambled eggs, fried eggs, hash brown, The Nashville Hot Chicken which comes with Mac-n-Cheese (MUST TRY), smoothies and ice coffee. Overall, the atmosphere was very nice. The place was packed! I highly recommend Malia's Cafe!

    A nice cafe close to the beach? Well, we found one that is vegetarian friendly. Lots of good…read moreoptions from pancakes, waffles, avocado toast and many more. We saw some good ratings and gave this place a shot and we weren't disappointed. We were greeted by a friendly and welcoming staff who helped us make the right selection. As my wife was fasting, she went with a small fruit bowl, my son chose shortstack pancakes, and I tried the veggie hash. The fruit bowl was decorated well and had plenty of variety. From blueberries, strawberries, kiwi, watermelons, apples, bananas, and others, all the fruits were fresh and perfectly ripe. The pancakes were very large and just one would have been more than enough for two people it seems but they even added berries for my son on them. The veggie hash had lots of potential. It was cooked well, however, lacked seasoning. It seemed slightly bland and I had to utilize ketchup to give it some identity. However, the quality and variety of veggies inside was great. Overall, I am giving four stars due to the fact that the prices are high, but the service and quality are worth it; especially for such a close location to the boardwalk.
