    Chicken orzo mushy stuff
    Molly M.

    Great location but ... Bought soup at the festival. They would only sell a large container. Was chicken orzo. More like smelly chicken mush. Honestly the worst soup I've ever smelled or attempted to eat in my life. My friend smell it and gaged. Brought it home dumped in a collider to see what was lurking in the bottom of the 4 4 inches of chicken fat. I had to toss it the smell was just evil. Worst $14.00 I spent in 2023 I hope it's not always like this maybe they were trying to dump old soup that day. Sorry for the really bad review.

    If you're looking for all day breakfast & lunch spot with traditional "beach town vibes" then look no further than Asbury Kitchen! This vibrant & welcoming restaurant is the perfect beach restaurant with yellow shiplap walls & nautical decorations, what's not to love! I ordered their smoked salmon savory crêpe & let me tell you... best savory crêpe I've ever eaten!!! The staff was warm, welcoming, & very hospitable & their kitchen was like a well oiled machine! They also offer a Gluten Free menu as well! They also do take out, catering, & private parties! There literally is something here for every palate! You won't be disappointed! Cheers!

    Gluten free pancakes.  Supposed to be with fresh strawberries & whipped cream, but the strawberries were cooked into the pancake.

    Well definitely not Arlene's !!! The waitress was very nice. I ordered gluten free pancakes with strawberries and my mom ordered eggs benedict with pork roll. My pancakes were thick & very dry, and the strawberries were cooked into the pancakes...first time I've seen that done. The eggs benedict, the eggs were cooked perfect but the hollandaise sauce was like water, runny and ice cold, and no taste. Arlene's was such a nice family owned place & I enjoyed eating at and could eat at (I have celiac) every year for the past 7 yrs. I didn't know they had closed. Very sad to say the least. I hope this new place makes it. But, can't say I'll be back.

    We got takeout yesterday and we were pretty disappointed. The Crabby Benedict had very little flavor and the hollandaise was so watery you couldn't even taste it. The Egg White Scramble looked like it had been cooked in a rush, lacked any kind of seasoning, and was missing the tomatoes (accompanied muffin was also missing peanut butter). I hope this is just an off-season anomaly.

    The food is really good, especially the breakfast tacos, but the service needs to be improved. Hopefully by this summer they can continue to make necessary changes and improvements as my parents and I love going there- but HATE the wait once we order. One of the owners nieces (I believe) we had as our server and we couldn't say enough nice things about her. So sweet and accommodating, a great server on their staff!

    Hooked on Breakfast is so welcoming and all the staff are very very nice!! Also yummy food !read more

    Not your average breakfast joint! My wife's family has been vacationing in Ocean City for years and…read morethis was everyone's first visit to Hooked on Breakfast. One of the servers who knows our niece suggested we stop by for breakfast during her shift and recommended we come before 8 am as it gets busy. By the time we arrived (after 8 am lol) our only option was to sit outside, otherwise the wait would've been 45 minutes--she was right. When I say I'm not a breakfast person, I don't mean I dislike breakfast foods. I just don't enjoy eating early in the day. This did not stop me from looking through pictures on Yelp and Google (Wow! Everything looked delicious!) and through the menu which had some very intriguing options including Woody's Scrap Pile, Cannoli Pancakes, and Breakfast Sushi (only on Tuesdays) just to name a few. The menu has all your typical breakfast foods and combos you'd find at any diner or breakfast joint, but then there are also much more unique, elaborate "craft" options that really make this menu stand out. Our server, who is also a teacher in my niece's school, was great. She was friendly, attentive, professional, frequently checked in, and was especially good with the kids, offering crayons and their choice of colored straws. While I didn't eat, my 5 star rating is based on the service (of course), the coffee, and unanimous positive remarks from around the table. I really liked the coffee mugs. They were large (larger than your average coffee mug), sturdy mugs that were filled nearly to the brim with piping hot coffee. My wife got the Sour Dough Delight--grilled sour dough topped with bacon, goat cheese, arugula, balsamic reduction (which she skipped) and two eggs (any style). She loved it and told me she'd absolutely order it again after she tries the Avocado Naan. Guess we're coming back at least twice more lol! Our table also had an Omelette, a breakfast sandwich, and French Toast. Everyone enjoyed their food and the portion sizes were huge--I don't think anybody finished their plate. While I did think the prices were fair, especially for the quality and quantity of food served, the online menu hadn't been updated to reflect current prices. I can see why they get as busy as they do and why they've received so many 5 star reviews. I'm sure Hooked on Breakfast will be added to our list of stops on our annual Ocean City family vacation after our experience this July.

They have a kids menu which was also helpful. The only l thing to watch for is the seagulls! They mainly tried to scrounge at any tables that had just gotten up before the staff had a chance to clear them, but a few times we thought they might try to get to our table. Just a good reminder to not feed them, as they have gotten so bad over the years.

It was very crowded and it felt like everyone was sitting together. You were on top of one another eating with your neighbors. It was a hectic seating scenario, kids running everywhere. Up and down the dock, in-between tables. The seagulls were the worst part. Felt like you had to guard your plate the entire time. One swooped down and attacked the French fries on my wife's plate while we were sitting right there towards the end of our meal. And the best they could do was offer to take our plates away. Food was ok at best. Good portions, no real flavor in the fish tacos, the fish and chips were just deep fried, not seasoned, nothing special or to brag about. was not worth the trip at all. We won't be going back. Not until they fix some major things.

We were seated immediately at the open bar, which was a great start to the day! The service was truly first class. When they realized they had run out of milk for my granddaughter, they didn't just apologize, they actually ran to the store to get more! That level of care and customer service was above and beyond. Friendly staff, great energy, and exceptional hospitality all around. We'll definitely be back!

Wjat was upsetting is that we noticed they are now adding hidden costs to your meal. I had a steak sandwich with onions and peppers. They charged me $2 for onions and $2 for peppers, adding an extra $4 for the meal. The added cost was not indicated on the menu, nor did the server disclose it. Another person changed out their two slices of standard toast for a slice of whole grain. That was a $1 added charge. Visitors should check their bills closesly since Varsity Inn seems to now want to add a charge for any little thing. The following night, I had a hamburger at another restaurant, and there was not an added charge for onion. Looks like we'll go elsewhere so we don't get hit with added, hidden charges.
