Reviews
This is a great spot with even better COVID standards. The view is nice and the food was great. There is a parking lot for parking. The prices are good. I enjoyed this location.
Super awesome staff! Shout out to Marty for taking care of us. We had the wings! Super crunchy, no grease, and definitely not guilty to indulge. It's a must try. Clams casino was amazing and succulent. I definitely recommend it. We also had the lump crab meat imperial style, but felt like it needed an additional crunch. Perhaps some tortilla or pita chips to scoop it. Came with two sides of your choice: coleslaw, salad, baked potato, apple sauce or fries. We had sailors delight, which in my opinion was very light in alcohol content. It practically resembles juice. However it was very well mixed. Bathrooms were clean. Covid 19 sanitation in effect! If I ever visit DE again, I'd come back for sure. PS. The answering service when you call is extremely time consuming, but you'll reach someone at the end press #1.
It's a cute place by the water. The food wasn't bad but it wasn't amazing. I'd recommend the breaded colossal gulf shrimp for sure. There is parking on the premises which is nice. There was also a wait when we went but they did have some (limited) seats out front for you to wait. They also have a cute dock area right next to the restaurant that's nice to hang out at while you wait. Our sever, Robert ,was great! He was polite, attentive and helpful. Very happy with his service and suggestions.
This is a place that I tried during my 3 week stay at Ocean City. I heard good things about it so we tried it. - The restaurant: good size and seemed clean. We sat in probably the best table outside with a bayside view during sunset. It is worth the wait to eat outside. There are lots of birds (seagulls) outside that can be pretty loud and distracting (the only minus of being outside but not bad enough to lose a star). -the food: overall very satisfied with the food from BJ's on the water. The bread was sweet and buttery, the salads were crunchy and fresh, but the highlights of the day were my husband's grilled Mahi Mahi (special of the day), and my stuffed Flounder. If I go back, I will order the same thing. We also ordered Shrimp imperial which was good, but not nearly as good as the founder. The fries could have been better, but weren't bad. The orange crushes didn't feel like they had a lot of Vodka in them; it felt more like Orange juice. Overall opinion: although there is just a little bit of room for improvement (stronger orange crushes, and finding a way to keep the seagulls away -which may be super difficult) it was an overall excellent visit at the restaurant which is why I am not taking any stars off. The view, and free sunset were the best and the food made it a memorable meal.
We just saw the headline and are devastated that BJ's is closing! What a huge loss... This must have been a terribly painful decision and we feel awful for the owner and employees. We also feel awful- selfishly- for the great food and ambiance we will miss. And then there are the poor ducks and geese who line up everyday for their feeding. Who will take care of them now??? So, so sad....
