    Strawberry lemonade mocktail
    Mike E.

    After a very satisfying lunch here, we returned for dinner. Warning! Make a reservation... especially if you want to come on a Friday or Saturday night, but really, just make one no matter the occasion or time. They get really busy here and for good reason. On an island without many good food options, this place stands out. Nice atmosphere, plenty of options on the lunch or dinner menus, good portions, quality food and nice cocktails too. At this point, we've tried lunch, dinner, bringing the dog, no dog, burgers, tacos, their classic wings, shrimp with crab imperial, crab cakes and several cocktails and mocktails. Service was excellent during both of our visits and I really felt like they cared. The waitress, the one who brought our cocktails, the one who brought our food... everyone just gave off that vibe and had a passion for making customers happy. I particularly liked the "New Fashioned" cocktail, which was like an Old Fashioned with some Grand Marnier. Really tasty. My shrimp crown imperial was okay, but those shrimp on top of the tasty crab really needed some more char. They're supposed to be grilled shrimp, but tasted more like steamed. Overall though, awesome place to eat in a town that has few good options. After two visits and trying this much of the menu, Longboard has definitely earned a spot in our Ocean City rotation.

    Longboard Wings with blue cheese and a hamburger with grilled pineapple.

    Enjoying a wonderful few days in Ocean City MD, and found this wonderful restaurant. The staff were warm and welcoming and the decor was authentically beachy without being at all kitschy. The real star was the food! I ordered the Longboard Wings and my gosh they are fabulous perfectly cooked and sauced, sweet spicy but not too hot, served with celery and oh my the blue cheese! Let's just say if you like blue cheese you won't be disappointed. I ate every bit of it and was grateful for the wipes to help clean up afterwards. My husband got the burger with grilled pineapple which he also enjoyed. I decided to try one of their mocktails which was deliciously refreshing and helped make a special meal even better. Thank you Longboard Cafe! The only negative is that I'm completely spoiled for anyone else's wings!

    OCEAN CITY, MD: At Longboard Cafe, our night felt like one of those evenings you wish you could bottle up. From the moment we stepped onto their fully enclosed, heated porch, the vibes were immaculate: cozy, warm, and super dog friendly all year long. Brie & Cocoa were living their best lives with complimentary bacon and their own water bowl. We dove into a lineup of favorites: * Brie & Drunken Nuts * Famous Wrinkled Green Beans * Island Crab Balls Every bite was a hit, and the service made the whole night feel effortless. Their full bar kept the good times flowing with delicious cocktails and a great list of crushes to choose from. If you are heading to OCMD, Longboard Cafe is a must‑visit, the perfect mix of great food, great people, and great energy.

    I have been to longboards many times and it is a great stop after a day on the beach. They have everything you could want: sandwiches, tacos, salads, entrees, and great apps. I got the fresh fish and it was just ok. It needed more of a sauce rather than mango salsa. My husband got 2 pounds of wings as his dinner and loved every minute of it. The addiction wings are award winning for a reason. I did not order some of my favorites tonight, but are worth mentioning. The franchos, wrinkly green beans, and any of the wings. I often just order the franchos and wings to split with my husband as our entire meal. There is also great indoor and outdoor seating options. When they expanded and put the bar on a different side, it opened the restaurant up a lot and made it so much more enjoyable. Very kid friendly with good kids meals. Nothing fancy like some places try to do. They stick to kraft Mac n cheese and white bread. Your kids will be happy too.

    While I vacation, we decided to try somewhere new and I have to say, Longboard did not disappoint. I got the Longboard wings, which are their award winning flavor! I then ordered the Shrimp Crown Imperial. It was so filling. The portion of crab was huge. My parents ordered pan seared scallops and the seafood pasta. Our server was attentive and helpful. We sat on the enclosed deck which worked because it was such a beautiful night. It appeared to be able to be multi-purpose through fall for outdoor dining.

    I have been here a couple times so far and that is not enough. Sadly, I live over two hours away so only get in during my ocean city trips which I wish were way more often. Last summer was my first visit after seeing some friends recommend and following them on social media. We had their longboard wings, veggie wrap and jerk chicken wrap. Everything was DELICIOUS! On Wednesday of this week I stopped in for lunch with my dog and we sat on the 'boardwalk' which is what they call part of their outdoor section. The staff was super friendly and accommodating. They offer a water bowl and a complimentary piece of bacon for the pups. My dog was thrilled as you can see by one of the pics =) On this visit I tried the wrinkled green been app and the St. Croix chopped salad. Both were very good. My dog ordered the kids burger plain with no bun. He had no complaints! I stole his fries which were yummy. Luke was our server on my most recent visit. He provided excellent service! He even helped me gain some more insight on bringing a large party there later this year. He got me in touch with one of the managers and I am currently coordinating with them. Overall, this is one of my favorite restaurants in OC and can't wait to come back in a couple months!

    Attentive service, excellent handcrafted cocktails and a variety of delicious dishes.

    While visiting Ocean City, MD with my family, my husband searched for the best restaurants in town. He made the reservation (please make your reservation ahead of time, because the place is always full). We went on a Tuesday and were seated outside (while making your booking, you can choose where you want to be seated: inside or outside). The hosts were very nice. The place is clean and smells good. Our waiter was welcoming and polite. We ordered the Mexican street corn, the warm chips with the kitchen sink, their best-seller chicken wings, and 2 burgers. I must say, EVERYTHING WAS DELICIOUS. This restaurant is so good that our last dinner was here. That night we ordered the Bonzai chicken wings (DELICIOUS), and chicken and steak tacos. We recommend this restaurant to the fullest.

    Pan Seared Scallops.

    We visited the Longboard Cafe on a Friday night in February and ate in the "enclosed patio" space since the indoor space was full (yes, in February!). It was a bit chilly whenever someone opened the door and took a little getting used to. Still, the meal was very much worth the price of admission and service was impeccable. We shared the Shrimp Quesadilla to start. Delicious and loaded with shrimp! Then we had the Pan Seared Scallops and the Shrimp Crown Imperial. We'll be back!

    Great menu, great energy, great location- our waitress Bella was AMAZING!!!! Def make sure you visit if you're in town.

    Chicken Caesar with pasta salad
    Elaine F.

    I met some girlfriends at Longboard Cafe today for a mid-week lunch. I booked it because of the central location in O.C., their big & varied menu, and the fact that I could make an online reservation. They open at 11:00 am. I arrived about 15 minutes early for my noon reservation, and only a few tables were filled. But by noon, the place was packed, with several large parties. This place is really popular. The server was very nice and the food was excellent. I enjoyed the Chicken Caesar wrap. The pasta salad side was quite good, and a huge portion. Others had the cream of crab soup, a BLT, the mushroom blue cheese burger and other sides like coleslaw. One really unique thing was the asparagus--it was coated and fried like a tempura dish, but it was delicious!

    This restaurant is one of our new favorites. We were there for a girlfriend's weekend and our friends recommended it. The service was outstanding and so was the food. Highly recommend!

    Cream of crab soup
    Lee Z.

    Cream of crab soup was rich and filled with just enough chunks of crab meat. The Baja fish taco with flour tortilla was not bad. The only flaw was that the sauce they put on it made the fish a bit soggy on the majority of the deep fried fish.And the batter was a bit bitter. The citrus shrimp taco with flour was good. The shrimp was cooked perfectly. The toppings and seasoning blended very well. The cabbage gave the taco a great crunchy texture with each bite. The tacos were accompanied with chips. Alex our wait staff had a pleasant and friendly personality. He was also able explain the menu items in a helpful and informative manner. Imani another staff was very personable. I like the atmosphere. A upscale casual dinner with a beachy feel.

    Chill breakfast vibes & a dog friendly patio!…read more OCEAN CITY, MD: Malia's Cafe was the perfect final stop on our OCMD trip, a cozy breakfast, brunch, and lunch spot with dog friendly outdoor seating and all the classic comfort‑food vibes. Fresh dishes, breezy air drifting up from the beach, and a comfy awning that keeps you shaded make it such an easy, relaxing place to start your day. Simple, delicious, and super welcoming, exactly what you want before heading home.

We saw some good ratings and gave this place a shot and we weren't disappointed. We were greeted by a friendly and welcoming staff who helped us make the right selection. As my wife was fasting, she went with a small fruit bowl, my son chose shortstack pancakes, and I tried the veggie hash. The fruit bowl was decorated well and had plenty of variety. From blueberries, strawberries, kiwi, watermelons, apples, bananas, and others, all the fruits were fresh and perfectly ripe. The pancakes were very large and just one would have been more than enough for two people it seems but they even added berries for my son on them. The veggie hash had lots of potential. It was cooked well, however, lacked seasoning. It seemed slightly bland and I had to utilize ketchup to give it some identity. However, the quality and variety of veggies inside was great. Overall, I am giving four stars due to the fact that the prices are high, but the service and quality are worth it; especially for such a close location to the boardwalk.

If he had a particularly rough night and my husband and I need a pick me up that's a bit more than our coffee at home, I'll stop in (which these days have been numerous amounts of times). They've always been so kind and accommodating and their food and drinks are always delish. Today in particular, I want to mention though. I'm clumsy on a good day. I run into everything with the stroller so I usually leave it outside and carry my son inside with me. My trusty cardboard carrier I keep in the stroller hadn't failed me yet, but I guess it had been battered and used one too many times because it gave out as I picked it up and one of my drinks went ALLLLLL over the floor. The staff rushed in to help without any sign of annoyance or frustration (which I'm sure they were feeling lol). They replaced the drink without a thought. I definitely wasn't expecting that. i feel like a mess constantly these days so it was much appreciated they made me feel like I wasn't a huge mess of an inconvenience .

They clearly pride themselves on macarons and specialty coffee drinks, rightfully so too. The drinks were very delicious! My caramel macchiato was not overly sweet, but definitely a treat. My husband loved his Cuban latte (latte with sweet and condensed milk). My son wanted to try the macarons, but the flavors were a little too wild for him like sour grape and passion fruit matcha. When I asked a local what their favorite coffee place is because there's a few on the Main Street, they said this was the place to go for a specialty coffee drink you'll only find in Berlin. However, I missed the specialty menu because it wasn't located next to the main menu. I only saw it after I ordered on the adjacent wall. I will be back, but ordering off the menu I missed next time!
