Everything came out super quickly and was really yummy. Even though they seemed busy, all the staff had smiles on their face and were so attentive the whole time I highly recommend all the spreads with fresh pita, and the beef keftedes were sooo good. We sat on the patio and it was lovely! They also have a small selection of imported Greek goods and olive oil tastings inside!

Went here on a whim after we spent the weekend on the shore this past July. We saw it on FB and…read morewanted to give it a try....and WOW!!!! It was fantastic! We got the drink sampler that came in the pirates chest and it was SOOOO cool. I also LOVED the decor inside. It was PERFECT. The prices aren't over the top and the server and the barmaid were terrific. We got shrimp tacos and they were fabulous. If I could give a rating of 10 stars I would. As a party planner I can absolutely appreciate just HOW MUCH work went into this location to give you the TOTAL experience vibe with the absolutely perfect decor. We will absolutely return again and again. We went on a Sunday afternoon in July around 430pm. There were 4 other tables occupied when we arrived...by the time we left EVERY table in the joint was full. I guess word gets around locally in Cambridge MD how BAD ASS this place is and FB I'm sure helps get the word out to people who aren't local. I'm bringing my grandkids & nephew the next time we cross the bridge and go down the shore so they can experience it firsthand. I even kept my drink coasters and complimentary matchbook. My hats off to all the folks at The Dive Club. You guys really know how to knock it out of the park!!!!!!

Loved this place! We visited during the Ice and Oyster Festival so the place was packed. I am so…read moreglad we visited this fun-themed Tiki bar! There are some special effects and an indoor thunderstorm on the hour. Very impressive! The service was great and staff were attentive. The food was great (had crab soup, crab wontons, and crab cake skillet--awesome crab cake!). The drinks were amazing. My favorite was the Tiki Tiki Boom Boom with a garnish of a pineapple spear covered in caramelized sugar. Would have had more drinks but we had an 80 minute drive home. Would definitely go back! The only criticism I have is that there is only ONE bathroom, and unfortunately we were seated a couple tables from the bathroom. At one point the line was seven people long! Shiver me timbers.

I was in St Michael's for a long weekend with some friends (in April - I am behind on my reviews)!…read more It was Friday late morning and we didn't realize that the winery down the street didn't open until noon s owe were looking to kill some time. The Fool's Lantern was newly open (like pretty brand new!) and we saw the self-serve wine machines which are always fun. The four of us came in and the staff was super welcoming and didn't bat an eye at us just wanting to get some wine and hang out (versus getting food also). Our friends had a couple issues with using their card in the machine so ended up sharing ours. But you can attribute that to opening kinks! We had checked out their food menu and it looked good, so we actually came back a second time that day for lunch. We got a few tapas to share and I got the curry chicken salad sandwich. Overall, everything was really good and the staff was very nice. I hope they are successful in St Michaels!

Nice Saturday early lunch. Kelly was an awesome waitress. It did take about 30 mins to receive our…read morefood (I know because I had a work call that started at 11am after we were seated and it was over by 1130, and we got out food maybe 10 mins after that) lol Had the Brunch Steak & eggs. Came with an english muffin. Good meal, I brought home half the steak and an egg. $16 Bloody Mary was good as well, $8. Drink within 15 mins before it starts to water down :) Mom had the Bourbon glazed salon, with spinach as her side. The mashed potatoes were cold. She LOVEDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD the spinach. Didn't care for the glaze too much (she suggest to get this on the side next time), but she liked the salmon as well Parking lot, but it was hard to tell where exactly to park and there are no lines. On Saturday, we received the brunch menu including a regular menu. Restaurant felt good inside, considering it's hot outside. Nice morning with my Mom (Heart!!)

Ticklers Crab Shack was a fun and delicious experience. We…read morebegan the evening sitting at the bar enjoying craft cocktails, the bartender, Lenny, was so talented, the cocktails were on par (better really) with what I have had in New York City, AND we had the comfort of a cool, off the water breeze, and a million dollar view. For the record, I did the honor of trying a couple different cocktails, but the "summer of 69" was my favorite. My husband ordered a variety of oysters from their amazing raw bar, attention to detail was impressive. All of the wait staff and bar staff were attentive. The atmosphere created by the management and staff was not only pleasant and informative, but very professional, yet relaxed. We were lucky enough to meet the Chef and thank her for the great dishes. My husband had the Angus Steak Frites Dinner and was absolutely impressed with not only the cut of meat but also with the combinations of flavors and sauces. I had the fried crab balls, a recommendation from the manager, which were amazing, the crab cake dinner which was so fresh and tasty with Old Bay mustard aioli. I found out they change some parts of the menu seasonally, and we can't wait to see what the manager and staff come up with for our next visit.

Must try: tuna tartare and the crab dip. Both were excellent! I got the peel and eat shrimp and it was definitely a lot of food. I wish they had fish or shrimp sandwich options instead of just fried oysters or crab. I know we're in Maryland but still! The handcut fries were reeeeally good!! The wait staff was super friendly even though they were slammed.

Still enjoying The Ivy!…read more Great for catering, take away, or dine in. Sandwiches are all fantastic - at least the ones I've tried. I think the Chad is my fav. The salads are also great.

Today, we were tempted by the chef's salad, some baguettes, some tuna salad, and a glass of wine to share. The tuna salad was the best we've EVER had, anywhere. The wait staff are always considerate. The ambiance is peaceful, convivial. We're already eager to return! Thanks so much!

Unbelievable litte gem!…read more Hubby and I took a shakedown trip in our camper and as luck would have it, it would rain the first day. We knew this in advance (thank you weatherman!) so we decided that we would look for a place to have dinner on the shore. I checked what was close to Martinak State Park and one of the places that sounded good to my husband was the Preston Roadhouse Bar and Grill, so we decided to give it a whirl. We love small business and try to support them whenever we can. It's a cute little store front in the sleepy little town of Preston. You can appreciate these calm little places when you have to hustle and bustle through Baltimore daily. I was a little worried that we weren't *dressed* (hey, we were camping!), but casual works here for sure. We sort of took a seat because they seemed busy and we were not quite sure what to do, but no worries, it was fine....I would wait for a server to come over though. We were given menus and pretty much a few minutes later, our server Luke came over to take our drink orders which we promptly gave him. Upon bringing back the menus, he told us about all of their specials that evening. I decided to go for one of them which was the scallops and Parmesan risotto. My husband selected the shrimp and grits which was also on my radar. I figured that I could have some of his. As an appetizer, we ordered the crispy brussel sprouts. Our drinks arrived and a few minutes later, we were dining on these wonderful brussel sprouts! They were fried perfectly and had a nice topping to include cranberry, maple bacon and a balsamic glaze which balanced them out perfectly! Right on cue, our dinners arrived. Everything was good perfectly. The scallops were a nice size and the risotto was delicious. I really did love my husband's dish of shrimp and grits. I would have been just as happy with that one too. The grits were cheesy, the shrimps were a beautiful size and it had a smattering of pork barbecue in the middle of the grits. Very tasty and everything was served at the right temperature. We had no room for dessert....we couldn't finish our dinners. The dessert menu and the desserts brought out looked scrumptious though, so we would definitely go for it! Luke was an amazing server....he gave us his suggestions when we asked, something that I totally appreciate, because not only do they know what has been going out, but with many of the servers we know, they will tell us exactly what they enjoy....and the majority of the time (barring actual fish speaking for me as I don't care for it) they are right on! If you are just on a ride to the shore or if you live in the area, I would give them a try....very friendly little place!
