    Western omelette | ham, onions, green peppers, & cheddar cheese (it was supposed to be provolone cheese, but tasted good either way
    Jason W.

    I'll keep it brief and to the point: This restaurant is our go-to for breakfast every year. The new logo is clean and simple, yet inviting and striking. Staff is super friendly as always. My western omelette was perfectly cooked with added sausage and bacon. It came with the wrong cheese, but enjoyed it regardless. The homemade-style potatoes were incredible! We left full and satisfied, as always. See you again next summer

    Great breakfast spot close to the inlet.
    Dee M.

    Soooo its IN SEASON and Dee is at our condo. A RARITY!!! So I decided to stop in And see how my favorite off-season breakfast place is. It's 10 AM on Friday and this is the last day for the weekly tourists. The place is full but not overly crowded. Everybody in here has a smile on their face because I think they all secretly think they discovered a hidden gem and they have. Family-owned Makes this place run smoothly. The wait staff all have blue T-shirts on that say "kitchen crew ". that sums it up. I'm enjoying this well oiled machine. The always decent coffee is waking me up. If you are solo diner here be prepared to sit in the alcove area of the main dining room. I understand why they do that to maximize space. But, Be prepared to have 40 to 50 people walk by you as they are seated or the servers who are walking by delivering food and cleaning tables. I even got elbowed once while I was drinking my coffee by someone in a party of about 10 excited to be getting seated. (see pic). I had the most expensive thing on the menu - the executive breakfast which is basically a steak and egg plate. The steak was cooked to absolute perfection. The eggs were good and so are the potatoes. I'd highly recommend this dish and for being in a resort it was reasonably priced. I've never had bad service here.My server today was Rabbia who was absolutely delightful and a very good server. I totally recommend The Kitchen.

    Eggs toast and fried potatoes

    Our Order: 2 coffees, 1 orange juice, fruit bowl, mediterranean omelet , and 2 eggs and toast. Execution of Our Order: The coffee was so fresh and hot it tastes absolutely amazing. The orange juice was freshly squeezed which was such a pleasant surprise. The mediterranean omelet was cooked to absolute perfection and seasoned beautifully, it tasted amazing. The fruit bowl had fresh seasonal fruit in it, it was absolutely refreshing. The eggs and toast were cooked to perfection and tasted great. Seating: Had plenty of seating, we sat at a booth and it was very spacious and very comfortable. Staff and Services: The staff here were so friendly and extremely attentive. They are amazing, the staff here are the best! Drink Menu: They have a very small drink menu but the coffee is amazing! Food Menu: They have a really nice food menu, there is some for everyone! Prices:$ Cleanliness: This is one of the cleanest restaurants we've been Overall Experience: The experience here was so friendly and great. This is an amazing little family owned restaurant. Rating: 10/10 Recommendation: 10/10 Family Friendly: Absolutely Stroller/Wheelchair Friendly: Stroller: No Wheelchair: Yes

    French Toast with fresh berries
    Eric F.

    Looking for a breakfast spot on Yelp for our first morning in Ocean City. The Kitchen had the right combination of location and positive reviews, and it doesn't disappoint. I enjoyed the French Toast with a generous portion of fresh berries and my wife had the Belgian waffle. The food was well prepared and presented, and the service was friendly and prompt. .

    Fresh squeezed OJ
    Leena S.

    Wonderful breakfast spot in Ocean City, MD with friendly service and well prepared food. Looking at the outside, you would not know you are in store for a treat. We stopped in here on a Sunday morning, off season in October, and were seated right away. Our waitress was friendly and personable and took our drink orders immediately followed by our breakfast order. The fresh squeezed OJ was delicious and the coffee is also quite good. My breakfast came with toast, potatoes, and choice of breakfast meat. The potatoes served here have to be one of the best breakfast potatoes. The egg over easy and toast was also great. And, because I don't eat bacon, ham, or sausage they substituted 2 slices of tomatoes!

I have not eaten one bad thing here and am convinced it is the best breakfast spot in town! The lobster benedict (often one of their specials) is tender, flavorful, and delicious; and their Captain Crunch french toast (one of their regular menu items) is amazing and doesn't even need the melba sauce it is served with on the side. I tried a bite of their corn pancake special, which was also very good, not overly sweet, and paired well with the mango salsa; and my mom had their Angel food cake French toast with berries and melba sauce, which she enjoyed very much. They also have a number of different mimosa selections. I had a pineapple mimosa the first time and a passionfruit one the second and both were equally delicious and again, not overly sweet. It gets very busy on the weekends but whenever we have had to wait, it was never longer than ten minutes. I highly recommend this restaurant if you are in the area as there is something for everyone and the food is consistently amazing!

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.

We walked from our hotel and checked in about 15min before our reservation, and were immediately sat. Don't seem overly busy which is never a good thing in a vacation destination. We were sat along the windows and put in a drink order. I got an old fashioned which was fine. I ordered the cream of crab soup as a starter. Soup was solid, but the flavor was pretty lacking. As my entree I went with the bleu cheese encrusted steak. I ordered it medium-well, which is what you do at a place that doesn't have steak in its name or isn't billed as a steakhouse. That way when the undercook it (as most do) it'll be the preferred medium temp. Anyway, the steak came out and WAS NOT encrusted. The potatoes that were served with it were very good but undercooked and slimy. The vegetables looked just forced and were thrown on the plate to add color not flavor.

Customer Service: Hands down the best we experienced during our 9-day family trip to OCMD. Karri, our waitress, made us feel like family, loved her. Jeff & Mike were professional, friendly, and made a point to engage with every table. Breakfast? PHENOMENAL. Best we've had, not just this summer, but in all our years visiting OCMD. My wife and son agree. Everything was homemade and cooked to order. No frozen shortcuts. Portions were just right, flavors balanced beautifully, and nothing overly sweet. Nashville Hot Stuffed French Toast: The bourbon and caramelized apples stole the show. Chicken was a fun twist, though next time I'd get it on the side to keep the sweet and spicy separate. You can skip the chicken altogether and save $4 if you'd like. Banana Foster French Toast: Mind-blowing. The kind of dish that makes you question everything you've ever called "breakfast." Plate was licked clean. Already dreaming of it for summer 2026. Creamed Chipped Beef over Biscuits: Shared this one. Generous portion, nostalgic flavor, clearly a recipe passed down and perfected. Triple Decker: My son had the chocolate chip pancakes, huge portion, perfect texture, and he loved every bite. Only minor con: straws come unwrapped in your drink. Not a dealbreaker, but something to note. Final score: 25/25. Solid A+. Verdict: Highly recommended. We'll be back in summer 2026, no question.
