By far the BEST food in this area! We also love the intimate feel there & the Manhattan's on barrel tap! Our service was excellent and they are always so careful and diligent to accommodate my Celiac and necessity to be gluten-free - Thank You Courtney! It's totally worth the price for the food quality and uniqueness of the dishes, superb wine list, atmosphere, service & the ability to easily hear each other in conversation! It's always such a pleasure to treat ourselves to dinner at One Coastal!

Consistently good food and excellent service. Always enjoy our meal here.

Wonderful first visit for Hubbys birthday. Bell was fantastic!! Thx everyone

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

Our family enjoyed Thanksgiving dinner here. It was delicious. Everyone we encountered was lovely. We topped it off with some ice skating afterward. It was a fun Thanksgiving!
