The food is always outstanding, prepared to the standards of owner/master chef Tyson Merryman. Today I had their fajitas, a few weeks ago I had their Ahi tuna salad. Perfection. The wait staff is always friendly and attentive. I guess the highest praise I can give is... I keep coming back for more. Try it, you'll like it.

It's not an Ocean City family vacation without multiple trips to Kessel's! During our week at the…read moreshore, we visited Kessel's three times: takeout on our first night, ice cream mid-week, and an early dine-in dinner before heading home. As always, each of our three experiences this July were fantastic, with our last shining the most. We typically do take-out on night number one, and like in years past, the food is always ready on time and prepared as ordered. We ordered an array of items including Cheesesteaks, Chicken Caesar Wrap, Burgers, Grilled Cheese, Fries, and Onion Rings. Everyone enjoyed what they ordered. The line stretched around the side of the building the night we stopped for ice cream, but it moved quickly. Staff efficiently took orders, prepared cones and sundaes, and kept the line moving despite the large crowd. While take-out is always great from Kessel's, I will always prefer dining in! You really can't beat the old-school diner vibes and decor, and the service is outstanding. Julia, our server, did an incredible job with our party of 7. She was highly attentive, frequently checked in, and really added to our experience. My Cheesesteak Hoagie with hot peppers may have been my favorite thing I've ordered from Kessel's to date, but it's hard to go wrong with anything on the menu. The burgers and wraps are also solid choices. I also ordered a fresh Peach Sundae and I highly recommend! Julia even made my sundae herself in addition to waiting tables, and it tasted every bit as good as it looked. Absolutely picture-worthy! Kessel's is a cash-only establishment, but for seven people--including sandwiches, burgers, wraps, multiple orders of fries, and a few desserts--the total was just over $100. That's an incredible value especially at the Jersey Shore. Kessel's will always be a staple of our family vacations and continues to be a highlight for our nieces. If you've yet to experience breakfast, lunch, dinner, or just an ice cream sundae from this adorable, little, retro-feeling diner, please pay them a visit. I think you'll be glad you did.

It is normal to find oneself with a peculiar sense of being without time, and being within a coca-cola controlled dimension between ours and that of our forebears. It is crucial that you ignore any compunction to run screaming out the front door and onto the streets of Ocean City. I assure you, they are not there. What you see through those windows is an illusion to illicit comfort in your mortal mind. In actuality you have been removed to an extra-temporal imposition of Americana-kitsch. Once you have reconciled this fact and cleansed yourself of any unclean thoughts you may proceed to your booth, where you will order one cheeseburger and one strawberry milkshake. It is important that you order only these two items, as ordering any others will upset the delicate harmonics that weave our world with it. You will enjoy them. You will Pay. Only now will you be returned to our reality. It is an archaic anti-theft measure, but it is an effective one. You will leave. Be safe.

When we got there we were shooed away and in passing were told they closed at 8pm. When we tried to just let the worker know their hours are wrong on Google we were ignored and walked by multiple times. Until, a worker came over and explained to use we should just call in the future to check hours. We totally understood they were closed but we were just trying to let them know the hours were wrong so they could fix them so no one else had to go through what we did. After we left I then saw on Yelp it says they close at 7:30pm. Hours are inconsistent and confusing to figure out when they actually close. It is a shame because we love the food and always buy sauce when we come but the service we received today was really disappointing.

Almost too healthy. Can't go wrong with chicken tenders- the fries were nice and crispy. The restaurant itself had a nautical decor. It was really tight in the restaurant- almost too small for the amount of people in the place- they do have outdoor seating. Prices were on the higher side, but the amount of food made it feel worth it. My brother said this was the first time in awhile that he couldn't finish a meal. Make sure to make a reservation if you're coming with a group, and note that they close at 8 PM, so plan accordingly. Overall, a flavorful and memorable experience with very generous servings.
