    Bar food on the beach. Good if your looking to grab something and head back to the beach chairs but don't go out of your way to go.

    What a fantastic spot in North Ocean City. Liquid Assets easily has one of the most unique interior…read moresetups in town--you are literally dining at a rustic bar built right into the middle of a full throwback beer, wine, and liquor store. The ambiance alone makes it worth the visit. I stopped in for a late lunch and went with their Pick 2 lunch combo, pairing the Caesar salad with the cream of tomato soup. The Caesar was excellent: fresh, whole romaine hearts tossed in a nice tangy dressing, topped with flavorful brown bread croutons and a solid chunk of quality cheese. The cream of tomato soup was equally good, carrying over those same rich croutons and cheese to tie the meal together seamlessly. Service was top-notch as well--the bartender was friendly and welcoming, and the kitchen churned out the food impressively fast. Great spot all around; I will definitely be back.

It was definitely a great evening. We started with the Kung Park calamari and bread. In our group had everything from the LA burger, crabcakes, mussels, and seafood pot pie. And then we finished off with the donuts, I think I would go back just for those alone. I would recommend if you want a great meal. Maybe a little expensive, but I feel like everywhere in Ocean City is overpriced.

    Recently in OC, MD, we ruled out a handful of suggested restaurants by looking at menus and decided…read moreon Hooked. We were looking for a delicious fish dish. We were set on getting the salmon and the swordfish dishes which we did, and it did not disappoint! They were the most delicious dishes I had experienced in a long time. I asked about the seasoning on the salmon and the waitress, who was fabulous, said it was Moroccan. I loved the hint of cinnamon but according to the Moroccan spice I looked at on the web, it is a combination of numerous spices which amounts to a delicious combination of flavors. Both dishes were paired perfectly with their sides and sauces. I have never left a review about a restaurant before. This will be one of my few unforgettable meals. If dining inside, bring a sweater. They don't skimp on their air-conditioning. It was a cool night so we ate outside which was nice, but what made it nicer was our wonderful waitress, Fanika(?), who had the most awesome, helpful, outgoing personality that makes a dining experience that much better. And she was right about the coconut espresso martini. It was delicious! She also mentioned that the menus are seasonal so I am looking forward to returning to Hooked when I'm back in OC and trying other meals. I'm hooked!!

    We made reservations here a few weeks before our trip in May because my DIL said we had to eat…read morehere. The Chef looks familiar, I think I tasted his food before at one of the Celebrity Chefs Brunches for Meals on Wheels. I remember it being fantastic. There is outside dining but I booked inside as we weren't sure how warm it would be in May. It turned out to be a cold and windy weekend so we were very glad to be inside, plus the outside tables have a view of the highway. What a cute little restaurant inside; it is very tiny. We were crammed into a table in the corner. It was difficult to get past the other diners at their tables, and we could hear all the conversations around us. Every table was packed, I can't imagine what it's like in this room during the busy summer. Noelle was our server and she was amazing; very knowledgeable and friendly. She described the homemade bread service to us, and we ordered 2 Coastalpolitans which were made with Tito's Vodka, lime, soju, St. Germaine, and cranberry. They were sweet, and tart, and bright, and delicious. We decided on crab toast instead of the bread, and Noelle said we made the right choice. Wow, she was correct. The crab toast blew us away. It was chunks of crab on fluffy, crispy milk bread with pickled scallions, radish, lemon aioli, kelp powder, and lime. So beautiful and so delectable! RJ ordered the Pork Chop, which Noelle said One Coastal is known for, and I ordered the NJ Day Boat Scallops. We had no words. We sat there and quietly enjoyed every bite while listening to the surrounding tables, and knew we found a maybe not so hidden gem. My scallops were delicate and buttery and sweet, and melted in my mouth. RJ said his pork chop was tender and juicy, and the best he ever had. That is saying something. We finished with bread pudding because who doesn't love a good bread pudding, and we like to try it whenever we see one that looks interesting. It was salty and sweet and just so perfect. What One Coastal lacks in space and view, it makes up for with food and service. What a delightful place, and Noelle was a pleasure and a joy. We will definitely return to try all the other things and be lucky to sit anywhere inside or out.

We waited pretty long between our appetizers and entrees. They list gluten and dairy containing products on the menu. Food: the food was fresh and you could tell everything was made in house. The menu changes frequently and what we saw online was different when we got there. The salad was good but could have used a splash or 2 more of dressing. They had a bread appetizer special which tasted like an upscale Texas Roadhouse bread and butter. The duck breast entree had great flavor but it didn't fully mesh well together. Some bites were great while some lacked. The duck itself was good very well

Checking on their patrons has certainly gotten worse over the years, but Gavin was great! Now onto the food....I'm just going to say it, fried mozzarella planks.....go and order two or three plates of these. They are legit!!! All the other food was certainly worth going back for. Everyone loved it. There are video games upstairs, so my kids were very busy, which is a good thing when waiting for food haha. This place is an Ocean City landmark. If you haven't been, def go because they are having their 50 year anniversary this summer. Watch a game (there are many tvs inside), drink a green turtle special, and EAT SOME FRIED MOZZARELLA PLANKS!!!!

It's like someone told them one day that tex-mex was popular but never told them what that meant. They had no salsa for the quesadillas and apparently they never have salsa. The tacos came with a bag of chips not tortillas. And the bag was still sealed. That's the presentation you're going for?? It's now a tourist destination and a haunt for locals. But it has fallen from its previous glory.

OC Street Food has their menu proudly displayed outside and I was so happy to see all vegan items clearly labeled. I decided to stop in as my first meal in Ocean City. I ordered the falafel pita with fries as well as grape leaves. The falafel pita was a WINNER. The falafel is so soft inside with a perfectly fried exterior. It exceeded my expectations and I would definitely go out of my way to order more of this falafel. Overall the pita sandwich was delicious and well sauced. The fries were standard fries that my toddler enjoyed. The grape leaves were good but a little pricey. I know grape leaves are a labor of love and they were delicious. I probably would try a different side in the future to get a little more bang for my buck. The person taking my order was so kind. In addition to the amazing falafel I enjoyed the hospitality and was surprised to get such a warm welcome from a business in a mall. Thank you OC Street Food for an amazing vegan meal and I look forward to coming back again!

If you have the desire for Mediterranean food on the go, this place will not disappoint (I ordered them through DoorDash because it was raining like crazy). The prices are like everywhere else in this beach town...slightly more than I would expect to spend on a meal served in styrofoam containers, but for the price you get your money's worth. I ordered the beef and chicken kabob combo. The meat was nicely cooked, delicious sliced, and arrived still warm enough not to have to reheat in the microwave. It was served over deliciously flavored rice, a small bit of salad in the side, and a few small pieces of soft pita bread. My wife ordered the salmon kabob combo. It was comprised of two decent sized pieces of nicely cooked fish coated in Mediterranean spices. It was also served over rice with a small side salad and a few pieces of pita bread. We also ordered the crumb cake and the Greek jam tart. The crumb cake was a good sized piece for the price, and delicious. The jam tart was quite possibly my favorite part of the entire meal. It reminded me of what it would be if you combined a pie and a cake with strawberry jam inside of it. Absolutely worth trying and the price. I definitely suggest this place to anyone hankering for some Mediterranean flavors but don't feel like eating out to do so.

From the looks of what our friend ordered, the crab cakes were plump and juicy with crab meat. The crab bisque was also delicious though a bit salty for my taste but that's usually the case. The bread. Make sure you leave room for that! The catch of the day was fresh but the flavor was alright. I ordered the duck breast and enjoyed every last drop! The views are amazing too!

This is a beautiful restaurant overlooking the bay, perfect for a romantic dinner or celebration. We shared the Beet salad which was nicely brought to us on two plates and was quite fillings. The Smoked Cheddar Pierogis with sauerkraut and fried apples was delicious, not heavy or smoky. My husband had the Petit Filet mignon then a creme brulee for dessert which was small, thin, light, and wonderfully creamy. It came topped with strawberries. The indoor dining area is elegant, comfortable and romantic. You can watch the sunset but at the table by the windows, you may be a bit blinded by the sun until it sets and it got rather warm in the sun. It was worth it - watching the birds fly into the marsh and hop around. Previously, we have also sat outside on the small balcony at the high two person tables and high chairs. There is a better view of the bay from inside the restaurant since the restaurant and apartment building does not block the view on the sides. Savannah our waitress, was friendly, helpful, and attentive.
