Restaurants in Ocean City, MD
As you might expect, seafood is a favorite here. For the most part, a casual atmosphere prevails -- although for the better restaurants, it's always wise to make reservations and check on the dress code. Casual places don't take reservations and the wait can last an hour. In summer, restaurants are rarely closed: Some open as early as 5am and continue serving until 10 or 11pm. Most places have full bar facilities. The season winds down from Columbus Day to Valentine's Day but nowadays there's always some place to go.
