    bland and overpriced French Toast

    Worst french toast ever. $15 for three tasteless slices of white bread with no side or drink, total scam. Two egg breakfast is cheaper and you get more. Our server was nice but the vibes were off, it was completely empty during peak hours.

    Great breakfast food on 24-May-2026. This is an awesome diner. Service was quick and friendly. Route 66 has become my go to diner in Ocean City, MD!

    Shrimp & Grits
    Shanel S.

    Pretty aiight! They have low reviews which may be based on day and time or meal. They have plenty of servers, place was pretty empty. To be honest, it was not our first pick. Other spots were packed. However, simple menu. Most diners have pages and pages of options. They kept it simple. I was going to get a cinnamon roll but the pic of it looked small so I opted for the generously portioned shrimp and grits. Chunky grit with tons of bacon. Solid number of shrimp too. They weren't blackened, just well seasoned and grilled. My wife got an avocado BLT that came with crisp French fries and fresh bacon. Overall delish. I'd return if other spots were packed. They serve a decent flavorful meal.

    Alright place, when walking In seen bug on floor and not moved or killed. Also when ordering the waiter was good but the pancakes were dry, like super dry almost took up half the syrup bottle I wouldn't recommend if your looking for a good place to eat or something that's clean. Will not come back.

    Mother Road

    I thought I was going to get my kicks on Route 66, but I was a bit disappointed. After a night out and before heading back to the hotel we wanted to grab some food. Being offseason there aren't many options that stay open later than usual. So you have to pick an choose. When we showed up here there were not many people inside. We parked, walked in, and lead to a booth. Menus were given and we placed our drink order. When you order a drink I swear they give you the biggest glass you can get so that you will not need to ask for a refill. I'm not going to complain on that. The menu is quite extensive, it can take some time to read over. In fact it did take some time to go over, good thing it did because the lack of service was present. When we did finally place our order I went with the Mother Road. Figured since we came to a place called Route 66, might as well pay homage to the namesake burger. Mother Road is an eight ounce beef patty, cooked to your liking. This is then topped with pepper jack cheese, bacon, onion rings, barbecue sauce, lettuce, tomato, onion. Served with fries and a pickle rounds out the meal. This wasn't anything to write home about. The toppings really outweighed the burger. In fact, there just were too many toppings. They almost watered down the entire thing. And to put onion rings and raw onion on a burger was a bit much in my opinion. The fries, really bland. You could tell that they were frozen and just put in the fryer. The amount they give you almost makes you overlook that they were fried a bit too much. What was more off-putting here was the staff. While we were eating our food some of the kitchen staff came out to have their meal as well. They were loud and obnoxious. And it wasn't just the kitchen staff, the wait staff chipped in a bit as well. Probably won't come back here as the food and service were just lackluster.

    Smashed Smash Burger Tacos
    Kristina B.

    We were greeted as we came through the door by Nico. She seated us and also let us know she'd be our server. Very cute diner, music not loud. We took several minutes to decide on our order. Nico checked back a couple of times. We settled on Chicken Parm Sammy and Smashed Burger Tacos. Food arrived in less than 15 minutes. It was fresh, hot, and delicious. Huge portion of fries. Reasonably priced and great service all around. Highly recommend!

    Fried zucchini app
    Karen C.

    Run, don't walk, to this new addition to OC. This is elevated diner food, and we loved everything we tried. Fried zucchini was crisp and hot, w a tangy tomato sauce. The Chicken and Waffle Benny was outstanding. Great flavor combo when eaten together, but each element was delicious on its own. Juicy chicken, perfectly cooked eggs, subtle hollandaise, and that waffle was seriously the best I have ever had. The Route 66 Dream was the perfect traditional breakfast. Again, perfectly cooked eggs, tasty turkey sausage, nicely grilled toast and buttery grits. Service was on point, friendly w just the right amount of attentiveness, and the food arrived quickly. I will be back soon, I need to try that Coca Cola cake sundae!

    Salisbury steak dinner at the Route 66 Diner OC MD.

    Service was great and the Salisbury steak was very good. Too much to eat for dinner. Mashed potatoes and string beans sides were very good also. Set up like a diner with booths and tables as well as counter.

One of the great things about the wait is that the restaurant is butt up against a surf shop full of curiosities. I wound up purchasing my daughter the sweetest little bracelet with a ceramic goldfish charm. That made the wait time fly by, and before we knew it, we were getting called to a table in back. We were promptly seated and given a drink menu with many options. We were seated in an open air spot on the water at a pub table. The menu is diverse with many options for different tastes. We ordered the fries to share as an appetizer. It was an insane portion of hand cut potatoes loaded with all of the toppings indicated on the menu. Three of us decided to split two pizzas and an order of wings for dinner, and the other ordered sandwich. The food came out, piping hot, and it was delicious. The prices are reasonable, and the parking is easily accessible. Do not go to OC without checking out this cool spot.

The Greek salad and Margherita pizza is our go to, but we have had their cheesesteak subs, lasagna, and their various assortments of desserts. Ripieno's special-brew chai iced tea is something else that has always kept us coming back. That is until today. While the pizza and salad were still very good, they weren't as outstanding as they have been in the past. Customer service is not the same as it once was. When we ordered the chai tea, this evening, no orange and lemon slices were offered. As we were dining outside, I walked in to ask if they had orange and lemon slices for the iced-tea available. The cashier first seemed as though he didn't see me, and then when i caught his attention and asked about the slices of orange and lemon for the tea, he looked at me as if he didn't not know what I was talking about. I looked at the girl behind the counter that walked over with the salad dressing that had not been delivered with our salads and asked her about the fruit. She looked confused as well and said they didn't have any. The iced-tea on its own is very good, but the slices of orange and lemon really make it great! Back to the food...when our pizza was brought to the table, the gentleman that delivered it, (I think he may have been attending the wood-fire oven) threw our paper plates on the table. Next came the Greek salads. We were short two sets of silverware which was noticed by the second server. She said she would return with silverware, but didn't. So, I went back inside and asked for the two sets of silverware we needed. I was asked if I wanted plastic. I responded that I would prefer metal silverware. The girl disappeared and returned several minutes later with the silverware. I realize it is the busy season, but the restaurant was not busy. We've been during the busy season and in the off season and have always had wonderful experiences. I am truly hoping that this was a one-time thing, and that Ripieno's will return to the same familiar place we used to love to go.
