Very kind and attentive service. The food and drinks were impressive, beautifully presented, and clearly high quality, though definitely on the expensive side. We visited on New Year's Eve and it was pretty busy, so I'd strongly recommend making a reservation. The atmosphere felt lively and upscale, and overall it was a great experience despite the crowd.

We stopped by Hooked during our travels through Ocean City and were so glad we did!
The atmosphere is laid-back and coastal, perfect for a beach-town dining experience. The service was friendly.
We tried the street corn and beet salad for appetizers, and fish tacos for entree—each dish was incredibly fresh and packed with bursting flavors.
The street corn had the perfect mix of smoky, creamy, and tangy flavors. The fish taco was a standout—crispy, well-seasoned fish with spicy mayo. And the beet salad was simply out-of-the-world!! So refreshing, beautifully presented, and balanced with just the right amount of sweetness and crunch.
You can tell the ingredients are high quality and the kitchen really knows what they are doing.
If you're in Ocean City and looking for something a little more creative and refined than the typical boardwalk fare, Hooked is 100% worth a stop! We’ll definitely be back next time we’re in town!

It was our first time here at this restaurant. It was highly recommended to us and I’m glad we came here. The atmosphere, the service and the food were just amazing. The crab cake, the wings, the pesto fries, their burger; even the focaccia bread with old bay olive oil was amazing. We also celebrated our son’s 13th birthday and they were so kind to bring out a key lime cheese cake with candles. I highly recommend Hooked to anyone visiting here. I shall return!
