I was at the restaurant on Fridays, March 6th, 2009. It was my first time at the restaurant, the food were good. I was so disappoint with your service. One of the waiter brought out the calculator to calculate for the tips. He demands that I have to come up 2 more dollars for tips. The total amount spent at the restaurant was $91.06 included tax. I gave out $102 in cash, and I thought that should be enough for the tips. He did not agree with the amount of tips and demand $2 dollars more. I did not know that they are demanding the tips to the corrected percentage. Sorry about that, usually the amount of tips are voluntary, not demanding. I feel very disappoint as I will post my review on the board so other people will be aware about the tips percentage that they are demanding. Thank you very much. We won't never come back to the restaurant again even though you have good food. It was such a bad experience for me. Please try other one in town, like the Peach Farm or Chow Chow city. I highly recomment the Peach Farm restaurant. Pros: None Cons: Bad Service

I was impressed by the food and service during a private party I attended at the East Ocean City Restaurant. Very nice restaurant, good atmosphere. Food was plentiful and very good. No complaints.

I had Chicken & Broccoli and it was nasty. It had fatty pieces of chicken, mushroom, sugar snap peas, carrots and broccoli. I don't know how you can call this Chicken & broccoli. The person I went with got a shrimp dish which was ok. Her dish was brought out about 10 minutes before my meal was ready. I am sorry I went to this restaurant. Pros: Shrimp was OK Cons: Service & chicken or whatever it was.

wouldn't think of walking into a formal-looking "dinner restaurant" (where you'd order several dishes as in full-course dining) when all you want is a quick, casual rice-dish kind of meal. was brought in by a colleague during lunch one day and found that this place actually has lunch menu. big portion of rice/noodle dishes that start from $5.50 up. it's good for two meals (at least for me) and it even comes w/soup! great find! :) Pros: excellent lunch deal Cons: parking might be difficult

East Ocean City was highly recommended. So we were expecting enjoyable Chinese dining. Sadly, no. Better Chinese food can be found at the food court of any mall. The service too, was spotty at best. Five of us ordered hot and sour soup, which arrived soon. The one who ordered won ton, was left waiting, served well after the others had finished theirs. Entrees too, arrived haphazardly. The first 3 arriving together, a wait, the 4th, a wait, the 5th, then about 5 minutes more, the last person who had ordered chicken and broccoli was presented beef and broccoli. When this discrepancy was noted, the waiter actually asked, "Well, wouldn't you like beef and broccoli?" "No" was the reply, "I ordered chicken." It took about 10 more minutes for the correct meal to arrive. The jumbo shrimps with mixed vegetable & black bean sauce was just acceptable. The General Gau's chicken, was by far the worst any of us had ever tasted, bland, overcooked and dry. When asked if we wanted to take the leftovers home, I for one, had to bite my checks to keep from laughing. Our waiter never checked to ask how everything was. When asked for water, each glass was forcefully placed before us! The kicker came as we stepped out of the restaurant. Someone came running after us exclaiming we hadn't left a tip! I explained it clearly stated on the menu that for party's of six or more, a 15% gratuity is added to the bill. Since we were a party of six and because the only itemized check we received was the first one in Chinese, which was not returned with the credit card slips, we assumed the 15% had been added. After explaining this three times, we simply turned around and walked away. In light of it all, I fully expected the fortune in my cookie to read: "I peed in your rice."

I had lunch at East Ocean and it was wonderful. It was my first time there and surely will not be my last. I was very surprised at how good it is. The food is very fresh and incredibly tasty. My waiter recommended the lobster with ginger and scallions but I opted for the Szechuan Spicy Beef & Chicken. Really yummy! For appetizers I had Spring Rolls, which I also recommend. It is a full service chinese dining experience. I really enjoyed it.

East Ocean City was a recommendation by a colleague of mine whose family has had years of experience in the Chinese food industry. This recommendation was backed by another colleague who simply stumbled upon it by accident and was pleasantly surprised. I took my out-of-town folks there and we had an amazing meal. The lobster was so fresh and the ginger sauce didn't overwhelm the natural taste and texture. Each dish was seasoned to perfection. And the best part was that dinner for five was under $100.00. The ambience isn't flashy but it doesn't matter because the wait staff is attentive and the food is incredible. A great place for a couple or a group. Pros: fresh seafood, well prepared dishes, attentive waitstaff Cons: not romantic, gets crowded
