    Only can beer ... with option of drinking from plastic cup... beer doesn't taste the same in plastic ...
    Beth K.

    I wanted to eat lunch outside on the bay, watch the boats come in with the local catch, and listen to "DJ Harvey Cinco" (so I thought). I guess all of O.C. had the same idea with the nice weather because the deck was definitely rocking. It was LOUD, lively, and very crowded on the dock. I found what I was looking for under "Speciality Sandwiches " , "The Big Fish" , with cilantro lime sauce and served with Old Bay chips, pickle, and slaw . I love a simple fried fish sandwich on a potato roll and this did not disappoint. The disappointment was only canned beer, with a very poor selection of IPA's , and how LOUD the music was! We ate the sandwiches as quickly as possible and asked for the check as soon as the food came out. This level of noise required immediate extraction. FWIW

    Good place for food and drinks that is right on the water. They had live music and the servers were nice. I had the fish and chips, shrimp, and fish tacos. All the seafood tasted fresh. I liked how the fish tacos came with a mango salsa. The cocktail sauce that came with the shrimp was nice and strong. The orange crush was decently strong as well.

    The views are amazing in the evening

    Excellent atmosphere. Food was very good, we had the Crab Balls, fries with beer cheese, Maryland fish and chips. Server could have been a little more attentive.

    Checked out Mr. Ducks during our stay in Ocean City. It feels like a very touristy type of place and the food/pricing sort of reflected that. It's a tiki-bar style with some nice views of the water on the outside deck. Loved some of the themes on the outside bar. The beers were cold but the food left much to be desired. We split some of the crab balls for an app, those were very good, enjoyed the dipping sauce those came with. 5 balls for $17 little too much. My wife got a salad that she said was okay, nothing special. For my entree I went with the Maryland fish and chips. Some beer battered rockfish that comes with Old Bay chips unless you pay the extra to upgrade for some fries. The fish was decent, 4 small pieces but it was a little too greasy for my liking and fell apart too easily, was definitely expecting more. They had a special beer collab with Burley Oak that you can only get a Mr. Ducks, this was cool. Service was timely and friendly. It's definitely worth checking out during your visit to Ocean City, just don't expect to be blown away.

    Vibes are high at this waterside establishment. Get the Duck Call, refreshing and worth it!

    Food was fine, and service was somewhat slow though I understand since they were very busy. I absolutely love the atmosphere...right by the water with the sea gulls and the breeze. The drinks were amazing! Probably my favorite thing about this place...and my favorite one was Shark Bite As a side note, there is a bathroom on the deck (outside) but it's not labeled.

    Excellent steamed shrimp before charter fishing! Walked right up to waterfront seating, watching boats come and go. Service was quick.

    Strawberry cooler

    Found this place nearby to where we were staying at. All the seating is outdoor, however the bar area is kind of covered. Our waitress was super nice and overall really helpful with any questions we had. Couldn't of asked for better service. Definitely a more casual place with a nice view with being on the water. Some things we ordered were: -fish tacos (2/5) -crab balls (5/5) -spicy chicken sandwich(4/5) -buffalo wings (2/5) -crab cake sandwich but with salad instead (4/5) -strawberry cooler, mimosas (5/5) There were a few other things but I can't remember. Will definitely be back to try different items next summer.

    Noticing a trend here?

    Visited last Thursday while visiting various WOC haunts and making our way back to town. Of all the years they've been around OC, this was my first visit. Tour boats are moored close by and another OC restaurant mainstay is a neighbor. Between beers and cocktails as well as friendly service from the barmaids we also enjoyed hot dogs. Very good, plump dogs direct from the steamer at the outdoor bar. Another customer moved his seat so my buddy and I could sit together. In shore style class, we bought him and his buddy a drink. And they reciprocated! Yep, M.R's is a must in SOC

    This is one of my favorite bars in lower Ocean City overlooking the bay. This is a happening place. We were waiting to board the yellow OC (Ocean City) Rocket high speed boat. When we arrived here two customers left the bar. We sat on their two bar stools at the bar. I enjoyed my Berlin Peach Press for $10.41. There is a credit card surcharge. My total bill was $19 charged to my credit card less gratuity or $17.90 if I paid with cash less gratuity. We agreed we will continue to return here for drinks.

    The last two years I've come here things have changed in a sense from my first couple of visits…read more Last year I figured it was an outlier but after eating here Saturday and suffering the same fate I needed to update my review. Not much has changed with the ambiance - bar atmosphere, with each time there being a live music act when we came in to eat. As a party of 10 the last two years (a yearly trip) we were sat in front of the music. Not my favorite place as it's hard to have a conversation but the music was good. We had a younger waiter take care of us - we put in some drinks - I ordered a blackberry bourbon tea. It wasn't very sweet or flavorful. Almost like it was watered down. Meh. We put in several apps to start our meal: crab pierogis, cheesesteak egg rolls and crab dip. The crab pierogis sounded good - but the sauce on them or around them was watery. Another person in our party got the crab corn chowder- it was watery. Chowders are thicker, not thin. The cheesesteak egg rolls were good - had a nice flavor to them. The crab dip was very very flavorful - maybe one of the best on the island I have had. For my meal I ordered the Baltimore bird which is fried chicken topped with crab dip. It was a HUGE piece of chicken and looked great -- then I took a bite. The chick was raw inside. Hoping it was just a part of the breast I bit into another part - middle chicken was pink and raw. What makes matters even worse was the Heinz ketchup bottle on the table - billed as a Pittsburgh bar - did not have Heinz in it. Ketchup was way too sweet - definitely off brand. We shared desserts as a table - the brownie Ala mode and the tower brownie cheesecake. Both were.. well small. Good taste but, limited. Again - just ok overall.

Rob and Rose greeted and welcomed us. We ordered the Medium steamed Crabs, Crab Cake Sandwich, Crab Bisque, corn on the cob and Hush Puppies. Wow! What a treat so early in the season. The Bisque was excellent. It's not too spicy but they give you extra seasoning and spice to add according to your personal taste. The Crab Cake was just as advertised. No filler, fresh Crab, Eastern Shore style and delicious. The medium crabs were very good. Some establishments would be seeking them as Large. They were seasoned and steamed perfectly. Heavy and sweet. The sides; Corn on the Cob, steamed in the Husk was very good and the Hush Puppies were a perfect pairing. My apologies for lack of pictures, we ate most everything before I started taking pictures. Rob and Rose were very attentive. They told us their story and shared a scrap book of their off season home in New Mexico. They were in the process of training and orienting their summer staff while we enjoyed our meal. The attention to detail, customer first, quality service and passion for excellent food was on full display. The dining is beach rustic and perfect. There's a good amount of parking and it's easy to find them right along coastal highway. What initially seemed like a disappointment today turned into a wonderful discovery of a new favorite. On The Bay Seafood is a must try if you're at the shore this year.

I waited a few minutes to be seated. I asked to be near a window. I wanted to soak up some more time looking at the sights and the lighting was perfect. I ordered the breakfast sandwich with regular bacon vs Canadian bacon, and swapped out the potatoes for fresh fruit, and an order of pancakes. Everything was fantastic! My sandwich was in a brioche bun and it complimented it perfectly! The fruit was a decent serving size. I also opted for some pancakes. I just had to satisfy a craving. It was two pancakes served with fresh fruit, powdered sugar and syrup. It hit the spot. Their menu had a few crab options for those who are looking for breakfast that includes crab. They honestly had something for everyone. Pricing was on point for it being a hotel, on the beach etc. It was to be expected. There is a comp for staying at the hotel, which helps off set the cost. My waitress was fantastic. She was hustling and taking care of all the things. She had someone help run food which I'm sure was helpful. Only downside for me was a family behind me sitting had a dog and I could smell it. Not sure if it was a service animal or not. But, yeah just something I noticed. I will definitely come back.

The lemon pepper wings were especially good. The Cajun pasta was a hit and so were the burgers for the kids. The chef at this place is definitely the real deal.
