Bidrage med feedbackLove, love, love this wacky unique little place. If you prefer chain restaurants, Grove Market may not be for you. Then again, it could be the place that opens your food world. We will definitely be back.
Food, atmosphere, and Lisa are amazing. It's more than a meal, it's an experience.
TL/DR: Best dining experience we've ever had at the beach. Long version: A couple quick thoughts. Reservations are accepted which is a huge plus for us. Also, if you're looking for a quick meal, this isn't your place. The dining experience moves at a great pace but for those looking to sit, order, eat, and leave quickly, this isn't for you. Last, this is cash only with an ATM on site. Note that the ATM only allows for $200 maximum withdraw so plan accordingly. The Grove Market feels off the beaten path (we live in OCMD) and is located in a rustic, woodsy location. Very oasis-like locale. The exterior is quaint with some outdoor seating while the indoor dining space is situated in what seems like an old seafood/deli counter. Decor is fun with americana signage all around the room. Our server, Brett, was nothing short of spectacular. Our table was a bit wobbly, and frankly I either didn't notice or care, but Brett insisted on making it right. We ordered a bottle of wine for the table and eventually Brett shared the appetizer menu verbally. They offered 2 salad options, some soups, chilled starters, and some hot options as well. We ordered the coconut crab and mushroom soup and the 13 oysters covered with a delicious tomato based sauce. Both were spectacular and made us even more excited for dinner. The dinner menu was also shared verbally with several options including duck, lamb, beef, and seafood (scallops, halibut, grouper). My wife opted for the grouper and I decided on the halibut, which had a mild thai curry sauce and topped with some crab. Both fish were cooked PERFECTLY. The sides (mashed potatoes, cucumber salad, and a slice of watermelon) were delicious too, but the star of the dish was obvious. Dessert was also offered. Several sounded amazing but we opted for the key lime pie since it's my favorite. Again, another spectacular dish! We'll be back for more!
Food is great. We were 45 minutes late because of heavy traffic. They called us and held our table. The scallops were amazing. My spouse had duck and our guests had lamb chops and they were fantastic. Wife had potstickers and I had salmon appetizer. Five stars! The only disappointment were the mashed potatoes. For dessert the chocolate pie was outstanding!
We celebrated our 30th anniversary, and had an incredible dining experience in this casual, friendly atmosphere. We loved the menu presentation, the entire staff, and of course the amazing food! Thank you!
