About Marlin Moon Restaurant in Ocean City, Maryland
Marlin Moon pairs an Atlantic Avenue hotel perch with broader menus than a typical beach walk-up: steaks, seafood, small plates, and a long happy-hour window at the bar.
Explore OC listings highlight daily hours from early breakfast through evening—useful when one half of the group wants plate-and-coffee and the other wants oysters later.
Best for
- Hotel guests wanting one-rope dinners
- Happy-hour oysters
- Anniversary-night steakhouses without leaving midtown
Good to know
Happy-hour pricing may be bar-seating-only—ask when you book if window tables matter.
