steak salad with oven fresh bread, grilled onions,  bell peppers and provolone cheese
Monica P.

Best subs ever and the nicest people. Great taste, lots of meat and tender. This place is well worth the trip, you will not be disappointed. Grandma is still working.

Turkey sandwich, tossed salad.
Barry B.

Actually quite nice, and a pleasant change of pace from the heavier things I had been eating on this business trip to OC. It is not fancy inside or out, a simple counter for ordering and a few tables inside, and in a small porch type setting. The highlight was the woman taking the orders and cashing out. She has an electric smile and radiates care and sweetness that you don't often get anymore in customer service. She is the best asset of this establishmnet, I hope they realize that and take care of her accordingly. She is of the generation that finds dignity and takes care in anything they do. The service is pretty quick, although I got a simple turkey sandwich and a salad, but I have been to places where even that order takes longer than you would expect- not so at Tommy's. I would definetly come here again if in the area. I would be interested to try some of their other offerings.

Menu

Still our favorite place for subs and ice cream, only one block off boardwalk so convenient to grab and eat on boards. They also have tables inside and out for dining

Cheesesteak with green peppers and onions
Lisa M.

I had my wedding at the Dunes Manor and all of the bridesmaids and groomsmen were starving the night before so we randomly got cheesesteaks from here since it was so close. HOLY CRAP!! We were blown away by how delicious these cheesesteaks were!! ALL of us ended up going back the very next night for more. I'm so happy I live in Berlin so I can go back whenever I want. Do yourself a favor and eat here. It's a blink and you'll miss it place but make it a point to find it. There's a reason they've been in business since 1978!

Stopped here upon touching down in Ocean City before hitting the sand. This was my first time here so I can't speak to anything other than it's just a sandwich stand with some outdoor and indoor seating. I wanted something light so I went with a BLT - which is pretty out of character for me. But I went with it anyway. Probably should have gotten a side or maybe tried a shake - but BLT with guns blazing. This was good - would have liked more bacon on it - but the LT was fresh and the Mayo was properly topped. Toast was done perfectly. Good overall flavor. Would try this again. And would recommend.

This is half of the sandwich but in general I paid $13 for this and the first half was 3 bites. Very small servings

Very small servings. Not feeding a grown man. Sandwich was $13. This is half but barely any meat and only one tomato the entire sandwich.

house salad and grilled cheese.
Sarah S.

food is great and the prices were even better. they have a huge menu from what you'd expect when you step inside. i visit here multiple times a summer. it's just a couple blocks from the beach. good quick and go lunch!

Two stars is for the friendly service and clean establishment. Most of the food served here seems to be frozen. Cheesesteaks are straight up steakums, yuck. Fries are your standard sub shop fries. My chicken Parmesan sub was just chicken tenders on a sub with pizza sauce and sprinkled Parmesan cheese. The bun was nicely toasted though.

Perfect cooked
Charlie H.

Great sandwiches. Fries cooked crispy upon request. Restaurant clean . Service was good . No public restrooms? Kinda bummed. The roll really held up the cheese steak

Great (large) soft cone twist of vanilla and chocolate ice cream!

OCEAN CITY, MD: Sometimes vacation calls for a little shopping and Anthonys Liquors makes it easy…read morebecause they are welcoming to leashed and friendly pups. Not only is it a full liquor store with beer, wine, and spirits, but they also have a deli with freshly made sandwiches, homemade salads and sides, and sliced lunch meats. We loved browsing their selection of locally made beverages, too. A quick, convenient, dog friendly stop for your food and beverage needs.

If you ask Ocean City locals or seasoned vacationers where to get a real beach sub, they won't…read morepoint you to a fancy restaurant--they'll send you to Anthony's Liquors on 33rd Street and Coastal Highway. Equal parts package store and legendary deli counter, Anthony's is an iconic OCMD staple that has perfected the art of beach lunches. History & Ownership Year Opened: The original property traces back to right after WWII as a drive-up stand and fried chicken carryout. The family bought the business in 1965, gradually expanding to add wine in 1970 and merging the store concept in 1982. The Full Deli Debut: In 1987, Anthony's officially expanded into a full-scale deli, which quickly became as famous as its liquor selection. Ownership: Operated as a beloved family-owned business for over 55 years. Awards & Local Acclaim Anthony's frequently earns local accolades--including Best Subs and Best Carryout honors--thanks to its commitment to quality. Rather than skimping on fillings, they load their sandwiches with premium Boar's Head and Citterio meats, freshly sliced cheeses, and house-made salads. The Sandwiches & Fan Favorites Anthony's sandwiches are renowned for their staggering portions. The 12-inch hoagies are packed with over a half-pound of meat and cheese on freshly baked rolls. The Shrimper: A massive sub loaded with house-made Maryland-style shrimp salad, lettuce, tomato, and mayo. The Nautilus: A gourmet Italian sub layered with mortadella (with pistachio), prosciutto, sopressata, and provolone. House-Cooked Roast Beef: Tender, rare roast beef sliced thin--a staple that locals swear by. The Flagship: The Crown Jewel If you only order one sub on your trip, make it The Flagship. The Flagship Sub Over 1/2 lb of Genoa salami, capicola ham, pepper ham, and sharp provolone cheese. Shredded lettuce, sliced tomatoes, onions, and spicy hot peppers. Dressed with olive oil, red wine vinegar, and oregano on a 12" freshly baked hoagie roll. It's the quintessential Italian cold-cut sub--salty, tangy, slightly spicy, and sturdy enough to hold up in your beach cooler all afternoon. Pro Tip for Beachgoers When heading to the beach or driving back home, ask the deli staff to assemble your sandwich "semi-deconstructed" (with oil, vinegar, and tomatoes on the side). Your roll won't get soggy, making it taste just as fresh hours later.

Me and Chris always find these small little tiny places tucked away were the average vacation…read morepeople dont go...Its usually locals, police officers grabbing a bite ect...Well this place Surfin' Betty's not only was the best meal we have ever had down OC (yes it slightly beat out our Bull on the Beach traditional meal)..Its a smash burger, chicken, hot dog joint that sells specialty sodas, milkshakes, and draft beer. There meat is all Rosetta Beef that has been 2 to 3 weeks!! There burgers and their hot dogs! Plus all their sides are homemade, the cheeses, the saurkraut, the chili, the pickles, the make so many different sauces for their various chicken sandwiches. They traditional crispy chicken sandwich, a hot nashville chicken sandwich, a thai boom boom chicken sandwich, ect!! Chris chicken sandwich was massive!! It was so tender the plastic knife just melted threw it! My hot dog was massive, crispy on the outside but the inside was so juicy. It came on quite a large roll and at first I was like that's way to much bread Then I took a bite into and my eyes rolled in the back of my head!!! It was like eating a bread, roll, pastry hybrid...It was so buttery and crispy yet so light and chewy and just decadent! My red onions were minced along with the relish so every bite had the perfect topping ratio!! The loaded fries we got were BANANAS CRAZY GOOD!!! The fries themselves were absolutely phenomenal they were got like McDonald's shoestring fries but a tad thinner and they were literally fresh cut per batch. They were deliciously seasoned and didn't anything on them. But we were being fat kids so we got the smothered version. Covered in liquid delicious cheese, bacon, jalapeños, onions, tomatoes and sour cream!! We devoured them! I am so glad we didn't eat anything all morning and just kinda pushed threw and stayed busy packing and loading up the car!!!Finally fat girl had to get a milkshake and its next level..EVERYTHING a Milkshake should be, thick even with the big straw she still thick, creamy, not real sweet, chocolaty but not sickening chocolate it's just perfect!!!!!! 10/10

Let me begin by saying, we have always been huge Ripieno's fans. It's a place we rave about and…read morehave always brought family to or suggested they dine at while in OCMD. The Greek salad and Margherita pizza is our go to, but we have had their cheesesteak subs, lasagna, and their various assortments of desserts. Ripieno's special-brew chai iced tea is something else that has always kept us coming back. That is until today. While the pizza and salad were still very good, they weren't as outstanding as they have been in the past. Customer service is not the same as it once was. When we ordered the chai tea, this evening, no orange and lemon slices were offered. As we were dining outside, I walked in to ask if they had orange and lemon slices for the iced-tea available. The cashier first seemed as though he didn't see me, and then when i caught his attention and asked about the slices of orange and lemon for the tea, he looked at me as if he didn't not know what I was talking about. I looked at the girl behind the counter that walked over with the salad dressing that had not been delivered with our salads and asked her about the fruit. She looked confused as well and said they didn't have any. The iced-tea on its own is very good, but the slices of orange and lemon really make it great! Back to the food...when our pizza was brought to the table, the gentleman that delivered it, (I think he may have been attending the wood-fire oven) threw our paper plates on the table. Next came the Greek salads. We were short two sets of silverware which was noticed by the second server. She said she would return with silverware, but didn't. So, I went back inside and asked for the two sets of silverware we needed. I was asked if I wanted plastic. I responded that I would prefer metal silverware. The girl disappeared and returned several minutes later with the silverware. I realize it is the busy season, but the restaurant was not busy. We've been during the busy season and in the off season and have always had wonderful experiences. I am truly hoping that this was a one-time thing, and that Ripieno's will return to the same familiar place we used to love to go.

Whenever I want a quick lunch with very tasty food for a decent price, I always stop by Belly busters. It's a small restaurant with some tables inside and a few outside, friendly staff and tasty food. I recommend the rockfish fingers ($12) and the rockfish tacos ($14). I also tried the steamed shrimp but it was just ok. I'm just not a big fan of the old bay seasoning which is very popular in Maryland. But overall this is a great place for a quick lunch and many people also order to go and take the food to the beach which is just a block away.
