Went here for dinner with my wife while we were on vacation, figured we try something new. The food was amazing, we got the paella Valencia bowl(bought 2 by accident we didn’t realize how big it actually was!) so we had plenty to take home. My wife also got the watermelon salad and I got the beef empanadas which were also really good. The view of the bay is also very pretty. Jose was a great waiter he made sure we were taken care of and made sure my wife’s order was put in properly (she has celiac disease). Can’t wait to go back to OCMD and dine here again.
Came here for the first time a few days ago, and the service and food was so good that we came back today. We came in around 11am and were immediately asked if we wanted to see gluten free, vegan, or brunch menus. They sat us down and our server, Kellen, brought everyone water without us having to ask for it. He was so friendly and took our order (party of 4) without writing anything down so i was a bit skeptical. We each had multiple very specific modifications with our food, so I didn’t think he would remember them, but he got every single detail right. Was funny, friendly and warm, and got us boxes and the bill at an appropriate time, and refilled drinks as soon as he saw they were slightly low.

I really enjoyed my food and drink. My family was not as impressed. I had an Irish coffee with a club on a gluten-free bun. The sandwich had a huge amount of turkey, and the bacon was nice and crisp. It came with a lot of chips. I needed to ask for mayo as it only came with a small smear of Dijon. One kid had the same on a pretzel bun and enjoyed his as well, but also said his was dry and added mayo. 2 kids and my husband tried the mac and cheese. They all said it was mid. It was explained as sticky and dry. It was not creamy at all. The crab mac seemed to have cheese on the top and bottom but not the middle. One kid said they tasted the crab in the mac, and the other one said they couldn't taste it at all. She barely touched her meal, and we came in hungry!
The thing that brought the rating down the most was my husband's meal. The ceasar salad did not have enough dressing to even speak on the flavor. The rack of ribs maybe had 2.5 ounces of meat. That "rack" was about as big as my husbands palm. It was one of their higher priced dishes and was totally disappointing. The barbecue sauce was an afterthought. It was smeared on and not even put back into the oven to caramelize. My husband also had some wine that he said tasted like box wine.
One kid had fish and chips. I tasted the fish. I thought it was pretty good. The batter could have been lighter. The inside was a little mushy. Kid didn't really eat his meal. He had half of his dad's mac and my chips. But that worked out. My hubby was able to substitute his lacking meal.
One kid had nachos. He enjoyed them and almost finished. This is from a kid who complains about nothing. A true gem in this world!
All in all, for the price, we felt "mom could do better." In fact, my husband said he could do better. In all fairness, I love being in the kitchen and have about 20 years of making things from scratch, but it hurts when we spend $250 and are not satisfied.
The service was great. Atmosphere was bar like. Food was only there to soak up alcohol if you had 1 too many drinks and had to beg the kitchen to turn on the fryer 30 minutes before closing.

Great little restaurant. Great food. Had a chicken taco and a chorizo taco in corn tortilla. Both excellent. Chips were great. I wasn't a fan of the salsa buy my family gobbled it doen.easy to pay with a QR code. Fun surfing vibe. Enjoyed watching surfing on the TVs. So far so good with the gluten free for my Celiac.

Solid solid spot. Especially love the God Bless America volume turning up. Our son has celiacs and they were super cautious and receptive to our needs. Highly recommend
Great food at this place and (again): Ocean City DOES have Gluten Free options. This place has Gluten Free sandwich bread selections for signature sandwiches. I had the Honey Do Chicken sandwich Gluten Free and it was a delight. The atmosphere was very, very well decorated but being a JW makes skeletons and all kinda creepy.

Very gluten free friendly! I felt very safe eating there with my daughter that has celiac disease. Our food was amazing and the drinks were yummy. Having a playground there for our wild child was amazing. We loved sitting in the sand and listening to music. We got there at 430 and had zero wait. When we left closer to 6, the line was insane. Definitely recommend going a bit early. We will definitely be returning!
I'm on vacation so we don't really know what's out here. These guys helped a ton over the phone suggesting getting around the wife's gluten allergy. Take-out food was great, but they forgot to put the Pico and melted butter in the bag... I guess no one's perfect
They were absolutely accomodating to gluten and dairy allergies and helped navigate the menu while still enjoying a delightful meal. Great views and lots for the kids to do and see.
Excellent thin crust cauliflower gluten-free. Very good sauce right amount of cheese. My only criticism is that the mushrooms are canned, yuck! Super friendly mom like waitress and quirky cool atmosphere.
Very cool sports bar. Staff is really nice and attentive. No gluten free items listed on the menu (that would be the 5th star). This place has been around forever, love it.
First off - heaven is real. And it’s this restaurant.
Date of visit - 5/6/22
I came by myself and sat near the bar and the Host was SOOO friendly and welcoming, I wish I could name him but he was exceptional at his position. The bartender was tending to my table and was so incredibly friendly and made good conversation. She allowed me to taste wines before I ordered so I wouldn’t be dissatisfied, she checked on me multiple times during my stay (so did the host) and was just all around someone that is good company as an employee. I sure do hope they get praise for their standards of service.
The FOOD - was impeccable. I had the gluten free Gnocchi and it was sooo smooth and fluffy and just.. I can’t even. If you’re debating this place, just do it.
Hidden gem for great eats! Small plates with big appeal and flavor. A few gluten free options on the menu as well, which is helpful since we have an allergy. This place is a staple for us when we visit OCMD
They were extra accommodating of a gluten intolerance, beyond what I see from most restaurants. It made for a great experience for all of us. We all really enjoyed the food, atmosphere, and the games. We will be back!
Stopped in while in OC for a volleyball tournament. I hate crowds so I try to avoid all the popular beach spots, which led me to DRY 85. As a bourbon lover, I thought their selection was great and I enjoyed trying some of the private barrel options with the flight. The bartender/server was knowledgeable both on the drinks and food menu, explaining the variety of gluten free options. I got a burger without bun and it was a good amount of food at a fair price (wish I took a pic).
Our site seeing tour guide recommended Harborside, he mentioned them having the best crab cakes in ocean city. My husband and I ate dinner there the next evening. Food did not disappoint. He enjoyed the crabcakes and in the fish. I also have a gluten allergy. I chose the grilled mahi mahi. Very delicious, no gluten reaction

Double check with the chef when the menu says gluten free because it isn’t. We ordered an item on the menu that says it’s gluten-free and asked the server if it really was. She said that it must be if it says it. Then she asked the chef and we were told that after the menus were printed the chef changed the recipes and they are NOT gluten-free even though the menu states that they are. We have brought this up to the manager but nothing has changed. Be careful if you have a severe gluten issue.
We had a fabulous dinner here. McKensie (spelling) was fantastic! I am celiac, and she was on it. If she didn't know she asked. I had the seafood imperial, with green beans and rice. The entire meal was amazing. Two people had the crab cakes, and are very picky about their crab cakes and they loved them as well. Also, someone at our table got the Salomon. He loved it as well.
Two of us got the bread pudding as a finish, they thought it was amazing, but should add raisins hahaha
Only down part was the music was way to loud and and the choice was not really dinner time friendly.
Thank you for a lovely evening
Fresh bread made there every morning!!!! Can it get any better than that?! Yes, the answer is yes it can!! We went for breakfast and they had so many great options. You are covered if you are hungry, gluten free, keto, not very hungry or just want something healthy! They have you covered! The monkey break is absolutely amazing!! Head on over and enjoy!
I visited Fager's Island for the first time on April 5th and dined in the fine dining area. Prior to my visit, I received a call to confirm my reservation and seating preference. During this call, I found it a bit impolite when the person mentioned that entrees were $50 or more, as I would not have made the reservation if it were beyond my budget.
Upon arriving, we were seated at our table. I ordered a lemon drop martini, a house salad, and the scallops risotto from the gluten-free menu. I found all of my dishes to be delicious. The view was also very nice, and I wish I had arrived earlier to better appreciate the sunset from the top. Overall, I would likely return to this restaurant.
Better than I hoped. Tons of toppings. Crust was crispy as I requested. Best Pizza I have had on boardwalk so far. Had a gluten free personal for my Wife to eat too. Only 3 stars for atmosphere due to the amount of people, which is to be expected.
As a local resident with celiac disease, my dining experiences are often challenging due to my need to meticulously avoid gluten. Micky Fins Bar & Grill, despite having a limited selection for those of us with this condition, stands out with its quality offerings.
One of my favorite gluten-free dishes is the chicken nachos. The addition of corn to this menu item is not only unique but also a delightful and welcome surprise. The flavors are well-balanced, and the corn adds a satisfying crunch that elevates the dish.
Another excellent choice for those seeking gluten-free options are the deviled eggs. They are prepared with care, and the flavors are rich and satisfying.
While the current gluten-free options at Micky Fins are wonderful, I do hope that, as a local resident, the restaurant will consider expanding their gluten-free menu. With more choices, I and others with similar dietary needs would be able to enjoy Micky Fins on a more regular basis. Here's to hoping for an even more inclusive menu in the future!
So these geniuses apparently cannot understand an order correctly, my 12 year old daughter is highly allergic to gluten and we specified this a few times on the call….. after spending 4 and a half hours in the emergency room with our child papa Johns customer service team could have cared less about the issue and while the store was still open no one answers the phone to explain the issue we called the corporate number only to get a team clearly not based in the US and have them say sorry for the experience can we fix the pizza? Most disgusting display of humanity that I have ever seen. Steer clear of this company especially in ocean city Maryland.
We went for lunch to beat the heat & stumbled across a true gem. They seemed understaffed as the hostess sat us and tried to take our food orders. However when we asked for fresh orange juice in our crushes the bartender was confused. Luckily one of the managers - Emmy - saw our perplexed looks and got right on making us amazing orange crushes. She even made our son a glass of fresh squeezed orange juice to drink and helped us navigate the menu as our daughter is gluten free and a pescatarian. Our daughter got beet salad with a shrimp topper as emmy said her favorite snack from the restaurant was seasoned nuts from the beet salad! Husband and i got crabcake and burgers and made our own surf and turf burgers - emmy’s response when she saw us - hey, its your dining experience! She was attentive and helpful, you could see her helping her staff with issues they were having but she didn’t forget about us! Definitely have to go when Emmy is working at dinner service because she is amazing - so i can only imagine how well she trains her staff!
Good place for dinner! There were gluten free options available on the menu and our server was knowledgeable about cross contamination and helped me make modifications to menu items. I was able to substitute the bread from the crab dip for celery.
Celiac friendly
