Fresh seafood, love the outdoor seating with a view. Tiny parking lot--be prepared to wait for a spot to park and then to sit on busy days. Worth it though!

I love this place. We drive down there just to eat their food. The staff is friendly and the service is great. They have indoor and outdoor eating areas and it's very clean.

OCM is a fantastic place to get Maryland crabs in ocean city. They have an extensive menu of seafood but I came for crabs and I was not disappointed. Crabs are by the dozen so come hungry! Paired with natty boh beer and sweet corn and I was in heaven. Outdoor seating is dog friendly and they have convenient parking.

Food was very good! Crabs were excellent. Service was also nice. Restaurant itself isn't that nice but if ur looking for crabs and snow crabs it's great. The flies were annoying if not I would have said they were 5. Soups were also great.

Best Crab-cake I've ever had... so good that when my Dad accidentally ate my half rather than his fish sando, I told myself, "this heaven needs be shared!" And happily watched him devour that delectable seafood gold :)) Get the Crab-cake with the hushpuppies! You will be happily fed :)))) Thank you OCM and Co for your genuine kindness and hospitality! See you soon! Love, The Family

Family of 9 all ages 83- 2 We had the following: Shrimp - great calamari - Excellent Hush puppies- with the honey they were great Flounder Fish sandwich- excellent Corn - excellent Cream of crab soup - Excellent Crab dip- Excellent This place is spot on with their food and service... I hate when you go somewhere and the waiters disappear and you have to ask all the other servers to get yours ... Not at all these ladies were hovering there tables like seagulls around kids with food in their hands...Best Service in Town hands down!

Of all the crab eateries we searched and read about, OCM stood out. Great location, perfect parking options... no struggles for the bustling area. Pricing was reasonable and comparable to other restaurants. My children got the kids AYCE for $25! They ended up with two helpings. My meal was delicious, snow crab legs, scrumptious cream of crab, crispy hush puppies and a soft corn on the cob. All satisfied my taste buds. I love the sink area where we were dining, less mess for the bathrooms. I loved being able to watch the kitchen staff cook, throughly the windows on the way to the women's room. Everyone was so kind and helpful the entire time we were there eating. I appreciate the time the waitress took to explain to my children how to take apart and eat the crabs. My children are no strangers to seafood they eat it all, but they have not had Maryland Blue crabs yet.

Awesome spot to get crabs in MD! The service is great, as well as the outdoor ambiance. We ordered the snow crab legs, clams, hush puppies, potato salad, Cole slaw, cream of crab soup, corn fritters, dozen of crabs, you name it - all delicious. The kids mac and cheese is also very good. The smiley fries are cute, but they almost taste like fried mashed potatoes instead of French fries. Some favorites: The potato salad is perfectly flavored and chunky. The soup was absolutely delicious and creamy. Nothing was fishy, and of great quality. If you want a fun crab experience, look no further. So much fun!

My 1st time visiting here, read many reviews and heard the hype so I thought we'd give it a try. Our Order: Homemade sangria (red), Landmark, mozzarella sticks, sweet tea, and a dozen crab. Execution of the Order: The crab was cooked perfectly and were seasoned beautifully. The french fries and mozzarella sticks were fantastic and seasoned well. The sangria was not that great and honestly wasn't a sangria as it was missing a key component of Fruit juice. The sweet tea was perfectly sweetened and the Landmark tasted great. Staff and Services: Servers are extremely attentive and friendly Drink Menu: Their drink Menu is quite small not a lot of choices. Food Menu: Their food menu is quite nice a very good selection. Price: $$$ Ombiance: It's quite loud but that's an obvious point due to the cracking of the crabs. Overall Ombiance is comforting. Overall Experience: My experience here was really great other than my sangria not being a sangria. I will definitely be returning here but will definitely Order a different drink. I recommend everyone to come visit here when you visit MD.
