    Salmon sandwich with onion rings
    Phillip R.

    I will say that the food was very good ...... but couldn't get what I actually wanted. They were out of the Maryland crab dip for the truffle fries and burger I wanted. My backup was the salmon sandwich and it did not disappoint it was very good with a large portion for the price. The Staff was very pleasant and knowledgeable even while training. The outside portion was dog friendly and even offered water. It was pretty peaceful and not crowded at all.

    Pulled Pork Burger

    We went in for lunch and had another great experience. Food was great and quick. Sports themed atmosphere. Prices are a little high but it's worth it with the views and high quality/portion food. Server, Macy, did a nice job making sure our needs were met.

    Burger was juicy & perfectly cooked but The chicken was overcooked. Daily Bread was delicious. Wish the Parmesan truffle fries were thicker like Thrasher's. Hot sauce was preservative free. Wish they had corn-syrup free ketchup.

    Always so good .. their menu is fantastic offering something for everyone. The service is usually good. I love the open feels with inside and outside seating. The only drawback is you never know when it switches from breakfast to lunch so you have to call and even then it's not always a certainty.

    The food was great and fun and unique toys to play with. I had the burgers for breakfast and omggggggg it was the best brunch I've ever hadddd.

    Chicken sandwich with Provolone & Bacon

    Sorry Bad Monkey, but consistency is lacking with your Burgers. After going to the Coastal Highway location a few months ago, ordered my favorite burger, Whiskey Rebellion, and was very disappointed, and excused because I thought it was the location that was the issue. BUT, We returned last night to West OC to have that delicious burger which is pictured in my original review. Unfortunately, it's not just a different location that's the issue, it's the lack of consistency with ingredients and quality. I think you lost us as customers and personal recommendations to friends visiting town. I am giving 3 stars, should be less, but there are 2 saves for this review, the Chicken cheesesteak sub was still tasty, HOWEVER, much smaller than it was before; AND Service was top notch with Harmony as our waitress, very pleasant, offered refills without having to ask and great bubbly personality. Anyone looking to try a burger here, go elsewhere and compare my photos between last night and my original post. As far as atmosphere, there were 2 very loud individuals at 2 different areas on opposite sides of the room that made having conversations at our table very difficult because of their overly boisterous levels. Because it's an open vaulted ceiling there's little to help reducing volume levels around the room and it wasn't a busy evening in there for a Saturday night during what I'd consider peak dinner time either. Expect a loud experience.

    Shrimp tacos
    Steve S.

    Passing through the area looking for a Sunday dinner. This was our choice. My wife and I split a plate of shrimp tacos and honey sriracha wings. It wound up being the perfect amount of food and the perfect blend of flavors. We loved both dishes. The wings were just spicy enough and not overwhelming. You're paying a little bit of tourist prices, but the location is real nice, the view from an outside table can't be beat, and the atmosphere is family friendly.

    First time here. I only drink draft beer when going out and all they had were craft beers. Beer was cold. The hell burger was really good. I did add more hot sauce to it though. The onion rings and fries were very good. The chicken tenders were pretty good as well. It is a bit pricey though.

    Bad Monkey Breakfast
    Michele B.

    This was the perfect way to end our Ocean City trip before we got on the road. Delicious breakfast to start the day made me a little less sad. We started with the cinnamon bread. oh damn, right there, I was hooked. Sweet, soft, little crunch on the dge. YUM I started with a Bloody Mary and it was delicious. lots of good flavor without being too boozy. Breakfast for me was the Bad Monkey special. Nothing too original- but done very well. I loved the sourdough bread. Husband got some sort of burrito that I can't find on the menu, but he loved it. Parents were also very happy with their breakfast. Service was great, location can't be beat, and it was a good price. This will be a staple for our OC trips going forward!

    Condiment cups with truffle oil and grated cheese.
    Tybee P.

    Typically I would give 5 stars as I have loved Bad Monkey's food and their service has been on point. Today, our waitress was struggling. I ordered a sandwich with truffle fries. Food comes out with regular fries. When the waitress comes by to check on things, I asked if these were the truffle fries. She says no, and will be right back. I'm thinking she will return with a new plate of truffle fries. Nope, she literally gives me 2 condiment cups, 1 with truffle oil and 1 with grated cheese. ‍‍‍ TO MAKE MY OWN! Big disappointment because by now, my fries are cold and if I pour the oil on top of the fries it's going to go all over my plate and my sandwich will become soggy.

    The food is excellent and the wait staff are always friendly. However the price is way to high, so we don't go there much

We started with a tasting board and chose three cheeses and three meats. It comes with a ton of additional accoutrements. It's a little expensive but worth it to try some fantastic cheese. I had the Cacio e pepe with scallops that was on special. I didn't love the pasta, the sauce was bland despite the peppery flavor but the scallops were well cooked and definitely the best part of the dish. For dessert we did a giant doughnut ice cream sandwich which was the star of the show. Paired with an espresso martini and I was extremely happy to finish off dinner!

It's a refreshing change from the typical boardwalk dining experience. The food was outstanding. We especially enjoyed the perfectly seared scallops, rich and flavorful oysters Rockefeller, and a well-prepared steak that was cooked exactly as ordered. The cocktail program was equally impressive, both the martini and Old Fashioned were expertly crafted. As a bourbon and whiskey enthusiast, I particularly appreciated the extensive selection available here. It was nice to find quality whiskey options beyond the sweet, fruity summer cocktails that dominate many Ocean City menus. The service was attentive, the atmosphere was lively yet comfortable, and the overall experience was excellent. Definitely a place we'll return to on future trips.
