We had a party of 8. Made a reservation on their website. Got seated as soon as we got there. This place is so nice and a great atmosphere!! It has a bar, outside playground and outside seating. Dining room seating and bar seating. The food was amazing and the prices were great compared to other big restaurants in Ocean City. They also had a photographer who came around and took our photo. Purchasing the photos is optional, of course. But we bought them all.

Summary: Overpriced and loud with so-so food and service.
Our son had remembered the cool shark kid's drink that he had gotten here about ten years ago, so we returned for dinner. He again got the cool shark drink which was the highlight of the meal. It wasn't very busy on the Friday night that we were there, but service was still slow. My wife needed a knife when she received her food, so she slipped the table sign from green to red, but nobody stopped by for over ten minutes, so she was done with her food by then.... She had the fish and chips, which she said was good, but they charged one dollar for tarter sauce instead of the fancy sauce that came with it. I had a chicken sandwich and it wasn't even as good as a fast food chain sandwich. We got a basket of french fries and they were cold when they came out. My son had a burger and it was supposed to come with homemade chips, but the waiter said they were just giving a small bag of chips, and that is what he got.
Also, a photographer came around to take your picture and then tried to sell you a $20 photo at the end, at least I think that was the price, as English was not his first language and it was hard to understand in the loud environment. There was also an unexplained miscellaneous fee on the bill for a little over $2. I expected a lot more from the place after spending almost $100 for three people. I will not be returning here.

The food was good but the portions were very small for one person. The crab soup was 10.99. We added shrimp skewers to have more food. The crab cake was very good but very small for $30. On top of it you have to pay 3% on a credit card fee.🥹
