   Marlin Moon was a great restaurant with fantastic service and food. Upon our arrival, we were seated promptly, and the service began. Our server provided us with great options when it was time to order. It was a little noisy but not intolerable. The food came quickly, and we enjoyed all that we could, taking the remainder with us in a to-go bag. Thank you again for the outstanding service, and I look forward to eating at Marlin Moon again on my next trip to Ocean City Md.

   Was so looking forward to going mainly because of clam appetizer which was really different than previously. The food was delicious but cold when served. Our waitress Keisha was the best! I made reservations a good week ahead and was seated in the noisy bar.. so probably done for a while.

   Restaurant Review: Marlin Moon – Ocean City, MD Our recent visit to Marlin Moon in Ocean City, Maryland, was a mix of highs and a few disappointments. With a party of five, including two individuals with Celiac disease, we were eager to see how the restaurant accommodated dietary restrictions while delivering a great dining experience. The Food The lack of a dedicated gluten-free menu was a challenge, but the staff did make an effort to modify dishes where possible. Unfortunately, while their accommodations were appreciated, both individuals in our group with Celiac disease found their meals to be mediocre at best. For the rest of our party, however, the food was spectacular. Every dish was well-prepared, flavorful, and beautifully presented. It was clear that the kitchen excels in crafting dishes within their standard offerings, and the quality was top-tier for those without dietary restrictions. Drinks & Service The beverage selection was solid, with a good variety of options to complement the meal. A standout moment was the bartender, who went above and beyond to craft delightful mocktails for our child, making their experience extra special. Ambiance & Convenience The restaurant itself has a pleasant and inviting ambiance, offering a relaxed yet upscale feel perfect for a night out. Additionally, parking was convenient, which is always a plus when dining in a busy beach town. Would We Return? Would we go back? Yes—but with some hesitation. In a town like Ocean City, where the restaurant scene is vast and diverse, Marlin Moon lands slightly above the midpoint on our list of places to visit regularly. If options were limited, we’d happily return, but with so many outstanding choices available, we’d likely explore other spots before making our way back. Final Thoughts Pros: ✔ Spectacular dishes (for non-gluten-free diners) ✔ Thoughtful and friendly bartender ✔ Pleasant ambiance ✔ Convenient parking Cons: ✘ No dedicated gluten-free menu

   The food is absolutely delicious!!! This was our second time in the past month, we hope to continue to return. The waitress appeared to have some personal issues by her actions and body language. She disappeared multiple times. The last time I could get her attention, I asked for a dessert to go and the check. She took my credit card and never returned back over 30 minutes as she walked around the restaurant. Finally she returned and I asked for my credit card and she returned it with no to go dessert. Great food and other waitress is great from our first experience. I will be back and hopefully not have to deal with this waitress

   Have eaten here before and the food & service were just as good as last time. Filet mignon was cooked perfectly, no knife needed. Would recommend and return

    Not worth the price. I’ve eaten at a lot of pricey places in OC. And some budget places in OC. Food was just ok. Do yourself a favor and go to Ruth’s Chris. Same price range and way better food!
