During a long weekend in Ocean City, MD we visited this popular restaurant for dinner. It was very busy, primarily with families because the establishment has a large playground for children. We were seated out on the deck overlooking the bay where there was the start of a very nice sunset. Our waiter was very nice and since it was so busy I gave him our entire order. We got a house salad and I ordered the Filet and my wife the Scallops but we planned to share these entrees. The salad was nice and crisp wth carrots and cucumbers. The Filet came with mashed potatoes and green beans. The steak was cooked perfectly, seasoned well and was delicious. The Scallops came with crab orzo and was equally delicious. I would love to return and try some other dishes.
This spot was HUGE and great for groups the view outside was incredible. Food was just mid. Drinks ehhh don't bother unless you're having beer - waste of calories. Service okay - not complaining place was busy when we went. My scallops needed salt. Flounder was just okay - nothing to write home about. Not too bad of a spot for families and friends.
It was quite hot inside where we were seated. The food was okay. I think the caprese salad was crazy disappointing for $15, you get two small slices of cheese and half a large tomato. The basil was strewn in shreds across it in a sad presentation. The burger was decent and the fries were good. The appetizers were good and the Miami Vice drinks were nice and refreshing. The server was very nice and did well managing our large party. It also started raining heavily while we were there and we saw a lot of tables that were seated outdoors has quite a bit of trouble getting relocated. It was nice that they had a small playground for kids right outside and I did enjoy the mini pitchers for the water beverages.
We always enjoy the ambiance at Ropewalk. We normally sit outside but opted for inside this time. Our server was prompt and kind. She was very helpful with anything we needed. I enjoyed the crabcake egg rolls and my scallops were good. My kids liked their meals and my husband got wings (not pictured) that won an award from a food competition in OC. He said they were great. My brother in law enjoyed his crawfish and showed me how to pick them. The only thing I wish could have been better was the Caprese salad. The tomatoes weren't ripe and there was no basil on them. There were tiny pieces of basil sprinkled but it would have been nice to get some large leaves. We liked the view of the bay while eating as well. We do enjoy coming here and will be back.
Monday 1:30 pm. Here with my son. We ordered spicy chicken sandwiches. We sar out in the sand pit. Pretty cool. Lots of coconut trees. Very colorful. We ordered non alcoholic tea and soda. Came in a pitcher. (Nice) great view. A perfect weather day. Service was great.
We stopped for a bayside cocktail and some appetizers on our way into OC while waiting to check in. Seated on outside deck, drinks were cold and hit the spot on a hot day. Apps were excellent. Wings, Spinach Artichoke Dip, Oyster Shooter s and Steamed Shrimp. Wonderful way to start our vacation. We went back for dinner later in the week and everything was delicious. It server was excellent as well. Definitely on our visit again list!
Party of six was immediately seated and served. The service was prompt and the food was delivered to the table very quickly. The place has plenty of outdoor seating and a play area. The appetizers were delivered without small plates or silverware so we had to wait The server delivering the appetizers didn't even stop to ask if we needed anything like silverware. It was a drive by at best. The rest of the time there was good.
Stopped into Ropewalk during off season while they were having their 1/2 off entrees! I love how many deals there are during the off season and I would definitely say were ate pretty good here! It was a little busy for a weekday but I attribute that to the deals they had during that day. It took about 15 minutes to be greeted by the server which was disappointing but again it seemed to be a bit busy (~7 other tables). The interior is spacious and the menu is expansive. Our server was attentive and the food came out fast. My halibut entree was $20 and my boyfriend's 2 crabcakes were $25! The halibut would've been great but it was severely overcooked to the point it was hard and dry. Remember to tip on what the full amount would have been! I'd come back here but I'd definitely have lower expectations.
A pretty restaurant with Great views and a wonderful menu. There's one day a week where they do buck a shuck for oysters. Service was good the visits we had after Labor Day.
Get the scallops!! I was a little hesitant to get the scallops because of the price, but it was absolutely worth it and cooked perfectly. Perfect meal to get while at the beach. This spot is always super fun and has amazing drinks and bar if you're not looking for dinner.
Great staff and delicious food. Great drink selection. A bit noisy though but it was a sign of a fun environment!
We stopped into Ropewalk pretty late in the evening, probably about an hour before closing, so it wasn't busy at all. Honestly, that worked in our favor because it had a laid-back, almost locals-only kind of feel, which was perfect for what we wanted--a relaxing nightcap before calling it a night. The bartender was great. I don't remember his name, but he was friendly, welcoming, and didn't make us feel rushed even though we came in so close to closing. He made some really solid drinks, too. I went with their coconut freeze, and he was kind enough to adjust it for me and make it without lime, which I really appreciated since not every place is that accommodating. It was creamy, tropical, and exactly the kind of drink you want at the beach. My friend tried the red, white, and blue drink that came with a firecracker popsicle--super fun presentation and surprisingly really good. Definitely the kind of cocktail that makes you feel like you're on vacation. We didn't get to try the food since the kitchen had already closed by the time we got there, but that was our own fault for coming in so late. From the look of the menu, though, there are definitely things I want to come back for. Ropewalk has the kind of atmosphere that makes you want to spend a little more time there, whether you're eating, drinking, or both. All in all, it ended up being a perfect spot for a late-night drink, and I'm already looking forward to going back earlier in the evening so we can give the food a try. Based on the drinks and service alone, it's worth a visit
The location, view, and service was wonderful. The food was what I have to give 3 stars for, I felt like it could be better. Not sure if it was the scallops or what but immediately afterwards had felt some stomach issues. The interior of the restaurant is clean and nice, the vibe was good, just the food was maybe not the freshest. My opinion of a restaurant is mainly on the food or service then prices and everything else is secondary. Although the service was great, this time the food really ruined it for me. I hope they pay attention to this review and revamp the menu with the best tasting and freshest ingredients, this can make or break a place like this.

First time in OCMD - visiting from New Jersey. Let me start with this, from what we (as a family) tried overall, this was BY FAR, the favorite of us all! The whole place has a good vibe and a great ambiance indoor and specially outdoor, not even the "stormy weather" stopped the good vibes or the crowd whatsoever, pretty full inside and outside when we arrived (still got sat down in minutes, pretty amazing). Big tables with space for us and all the amazing food and servers/bussers were almost always back and forth, even though we didn't always have our server closer, someone with help as well. We ordered sodas for the kids and 2 cocktails for the adults, their crush cocktail with orange and pineapple was perfect and very well balanced! For the food, MY OH MY, we've been craving the steamers for a while now and let me tell you, this place lived up to expectations! The mixed seafood steamer (with the crabs and shrimp, etc) was pretty much perfect and the crawfish steamer which the wife wanted to try (and I was a little skeptical about) made me swallow my own thoughts, everything was cooked and seasoned TO PERFECTION! As good food people that I am (we all are as a family honestly), I decided I wanted to try one last meal and went for the shrimp (skewer) scampi... never had a sauce as good as this one and the shrimp was not only cooked to perfection, it came with 10 total, which was AMAZING! Check was little under 200$ with tip already which I think it was pretty awesome as well since we all ate GREAT seafood. Would recommend this place and would/will definitely go or come back. Best seafood spot ever! Props to the chef, the employees and the owners for a great place! read more

We came here for lunch after getting a few suggestions from people at our hotel. The view was beautiful--we sat inside overlooking the water, which definitely made for a nice atmosphere. Unfortunately, the food was pretty meh. I ordered the Maryland crab soup, and honestly, I could have sworn it was Campbell's canned soup with crab added. It was incredibly salty. The BBQ wings were okay, and my seafood Cobb salad was decent, but the blue cheese completely overpowered everything (I should've requested no blue cheese). My husband had the jerk chicken salad, and unfortunately, the chicken was extremely salty and dry. On the bright side, the service was great. Our waiter was attentive, pleasant, and took good care of us. For about $100 total for lunch, we expected a little more from the food. The view and service were the highlights, but the food just didn't live up to the expectations. read more

As our first of many restaurants we visited on vacation, Ropewalk sealed the top spot throughout it all. Artichoke crab dip was so good it had us nonverbal. The ambience was great and our server was super friendly as well. This is a must stop spot for seafood lovers. Will be coming back! read more

The ropewalk was really fun! It had a big playground and a mini play ground for kids! The food was really good! There was corn hole and there was a hook game where you try to get a hook on a surfboard! When we went there they had an ice cream/popsicle stand! This was a really fun experience! read more
What started off as a quick dinner after a long drive became our go-to spot for our entire stay in ocean city. We even designated a server who was an absolute cutieeee (Louis). The crab stuffed eggroll app and they wings were our go-to everytime. The restaurant felt homie and had beautiful views of the water and even sunset. I will definitely be back when I travel here again! read more

Service: ok. The server was friendly and informative but the restaurant is empty and we asked for different table, and was declined with the reason of rsvp. It's hard to believe as it's 8:45 when we got there. Food: bada bing shrimp is a must try. So flavorful and plenty of shrimp compared with price. Crab egg rolls is also delicious with lots of crab meat. Crab chowder is tasteful as well. I was full after appetizers and could not try their main dishes. Maybe next time Ambient: it's a bit loud, compared with small customers, big place with plenty of rooms between tables Price : reasonable Overall: it is great, won't mind coming back read more

Good service, our waitress was very friendly. The food was pretty good. I ordered crab egg rolls which were very tasty with fresh crab. I recommend them. I also ordered the redrock fish tacos which tasted okay. I think that the small amount of fish and toppings with subpar fries did not measure up to its price. The view outside was wonderful.. Overall, it's a nice restaurant to go to when visiting. read more
We stopped bu Ropewak in OC for lunch during our Fourth of July getaway. The atmosphere was fun and festive, and the food was a mix of hits and misses. I had the crab cake, and it was really good-definitely the highlight of my meal! We also ordered the calamari, which was tasty, and I enjoyed a mango margarita that was refreshing and delicious. My daughter had the shrimp o, which unfortunately she didn't like. We also tried the fish bowl slushee made with grape juice-great in theory but not so great in taste. We ended up tossing it after just one sip. Customer service was ok, but honestly could have been better. Nothing major, just not as attentive or warm as we hoped for, especially during a busy holiday weekend. All in all, a decent spot with great views and some standout menu items-just a few things that could've made it a more consistent experience. read more

This place is great. We have come every year for the last 5 on vacation. Great kids menu, great playground while you wait. Quick and good drinks at the bar. Excellent menus and food. I cannot say I've had a bad meal here. The outside seating is great, even though I prefer inside, inside is comfortable too. They are always busy, which is always a good sign, but the consistency for me is what keeps us coming back. I had Cajun catfish this year and it was fantastic...we returned 4 days later and I HAD to order it again! The fried green tomatoes are one of the best appetizers I've had in OCMD and I think are a must order. Bang bang shrimp are also a great starter. Solid soup too of you're a soup person. read more
Came here a few years ago on our last trip to Ocean City and fell in love with this restaurant. Came back and it was still just as amazing! The food is delicious and has great portions. The crab cake egg rolls were my favorite on the menu. The oysters we got were also delicious. I love the mermaid water! There's also something nice about getting a small pitcher of water when you order. I loved that! The views are spectacular and the service is great read more

This place was everything we were looking for in terms of easy, casual dining at the beach with good food, rum drinks, and a great ocean and sunset view on the bayside. We only waited for about 20 min which wasn't bad given the crowds Memorial Day weekend and they seemed very efficient. Good spot to have a drink at the outdoor bar while you wait. The crab stuffed halibut was the clear winner and would love to have that again soon. The scallops and orzo were also great. Mac and cheese was a bit dense but good. And fireworks on summer Saturdays at 9:45pm topped off a great evening. Highly recommend for a summer night at the beach. read more

This was a solid dining experience. We were looking for low key food options higher up costal highway and this fit the bill. It was slow on a Friday night, but started to pick up a bit after 10pm surprisingly. The service was good and I enjoyed my food--- the jerk chicken was not jerk chicken (which I didn't expect it to be), but it had a good flavor. The place had a tiki bar vibe, and I imagine during peak season its a good place to hang out in the sand filled outdoor seating. read more

We have been to ropewalk many times. It is by far my kids favorite place. It is probably the best beach ambiance restaurant in ocean city. It has the kids play ground, beach bar with tropical drinks, bands, fire pits, tikis, and more. The food is very dependent on what you order if it's good. The tacos and fried food are always good, although I wish they did something to the tortilla for the tacos. The salads feel cheap and light for what you get, so I generally steer clear of those. My kids always LOVE their meals. The kids menu is just done right. The service is also quick. If you're with kids it's perfect. If you are just on a date night or with adult family, I would feel rushed. My assessment, I'm here to late night party with the good drinks or to keep my kids entertained while I enjoy an ok meal. read more
