We usually get to Ocean City twice a year - in April for Perfect Date and in October/November to close out the year. We ALWAYS go to On the Bay. Im going to be blunt, if you like seafood and eat anywhere else, I feel sorry for you. This is awesome seafood served hot and fast at a great location and atmosphere. Like seriously, what more could you ask for?

There is about a 50% chance that the person taking your order is the owner, especially early and late in the year. They are awesome people and a joy to talk to.

Every time I go I swear Im going to try something else and every time I get the scallops. SO has gotten the crab but IM stuck on the scallops because they are so so so good. Corn is seasonable so if you go in April it might not be available. Its always awesome.

The location and atmosphere could not be better. Wooden tables with sand at your feet. It doesnt get more beach.

At the height of the summer season On the Beach gets packed and you will wait in line. Its so worth it.

Dont think about it, just go there. You will not be sorry.

I’m so glad my family and I found this place, we were in Ocean City MD for a couple of days and we were feeling for seafood, the staff from our hotel recommended 2 places going the opposite direction, for some reason we were not sure if we liked those places so I went to yelp and searched for a local seafood spot with a good reviews so we found this place and happy with the food. I met the owner (Rose) who was really nice and friendly. This place will be our go to place whenever we are in Ocean City MD. I recommend this place
