    Old fashion
    Deanna C.

    It was the middle of the day, and I was looking for something to eat, as well as a place to get an old-fashioned cocktail. After reading through numerous reviews on Yelp, I discovered a spot that offered a chocolate and strawberry old-fashioned. What I loved most about it was the presentation: the drink was served on a book with a small flash kit from the Prohibition era inside. I also enjoyed the Buffalo Brussels sprouts--they made for a great lunch!

    1/2 a supposed brisket Reuben thingy  yall want these chips?  Honestly thought they'd be homemade like Cincy.

    Don't do it! This is not a restaurant lol if you're there to drink cool but I'd skip the food! Feeling ill tonight - only finished 1/2 my sandwich because it was a Reuben made of "brisket" mixed with coleslaw idk ‍ why claim Reuben without corned beef what is happening? The burger was .... uh supposedly had brisket too .... lemme tell ya I make brisket so they could've been pot roast but not that. I can tell why business was slowwwwwww. Someone make it stop, take the menus all of them! Needs updated, waitress was ok, after we weren't drinking she kindly ditched us. I love ocean city but dang !

We always order two for the table, but this year they were burnt and had very few toppings with almost no cilantro crema. Please see the photo for the side‑by‑side comparison. My son also looks forward to the chocolate milkshake every summer, but the machine was reportedly down for the next hour. I understand that things happen, but it added to an already disappointing food experience. Several people in our group ordered chicken sandwiches and said the chicken was extremely chewy. None of them finished their meal. Brass Balls, I truly hope this is not the new norm. With so many dining options, this is the quickest way to lose loyal customers. Customer service - 5 out of 5 Wait time - 5 out of 5 Cleanliness - 5 out of 5 Atmosphere - 5 out of 5 Food quality - 2 out of 5 With a total score of 22 out of 25, I am giving this place a B+. We will return in the summer of 2027, but with the hope that the food quality returns to its usual standard.

The barn bloody was $17. I wish the piece of crab had been bigger but otherwise a great drink. Coffee ~$4 was underwhelming. We split the Crab Oscar with potatoes and chicken and waffles. Both were good and good portion. Our waitress was awesome. Friendly, knowledgeable, and checked in the right amount. Very busy place esp on summer weekends so go early and be prepared for a wait. We will return.

We have been in September the last few times, so technically off Season. That shouldn't matter on the quality of the food. But apparently it does. The server was great. No complaints there. The food I got a scrambler and it looked like Slop, which yes a scrambler usually looks like things thrown together. But it had thick glob of cheese that was like thick and dry, and not melted at all either it had just been sitting there for a while and hardened, and underneath it was hiding old reheated dry potatoes. Bacon that look like it's been reheated just not good. The only thing I think that was freshen were the Eggs. English muffin didn't have any butter on it. Not sure if they put anything on it but my boyfriend's French toast was too cold wilted pieces of French toast that had a pound of butter slapped on. I think the butter from the whole restaurant was on his plate. I mean, we won't even feed our dog The waiter came over to ask you if everything was great and my boyfriend said no can we just have to check and then when he asked what was wrong we told him. And at least they gave us the food free of charge. We didn't eat any of it and I tipped the server because it wasn't his fault but we will never be back. The past couple of times we've gotten a fresh squeeze orange juice and it's not freshly squeeze at all. It used to be years ago, but this place has gone downhill. I don't know if you're doing one thing during in season. You should still be serving good food when the season is over like why should it matter. We gave enough chances, barn 34 no more.

We got seated at a nice table, had an attentive server, and placed our orders. Waters come with lemon (always appreciated), the house bread and compound garlic butter were tasty, and our fried calamari appetizer was also good enough. My daughter thought it was just okay, but compared to what followed, it was fine. They even give you a nice-size house salad for the table to share. I was actually pretty pleased here... up to that point. Then the entrees came and all four were plain dreadful. Anything with red sauce was painful to eat. Thick and pasty, like someone dumped out a can of tomato paste, then did nothing else to it. Meat sauce, eggplant Parm, mussels in sauce... all had us cringing and just eating enough to have some sustenance so we could proceed with the rest of our evening. My daughter's scampi was also sickening to eat. The tang, the garlic... it was like random amounts of ingredients were tossed together without any love, tasting, or adjusting by a chef. I believe this location is closing soon and the family is moving elsewhere. Maybe they once cared and don't anymore. If you have any sense of moderately decent Italian food, I suggest avoiding this place. Just have another night of boardwalk food.
