If dining on good old fashioned American hamburgers and other popular American foods by the ocean sounds like a dream come true, then swing on by and give 1936 Bar & Grill a try. I love how the restaurant combines the old with the new and puts their own spin on popular dishes like the Big Kahuna burger and fried green tomatoes. Personally, I’d prefer regular sliced pineapple on my burger, but otherwise, I love their Big Kahuna burger. Now all that it needs is a $5 milkshake, within reason, of course, ha ha! #PulpFictionFan So yeah, if you love good food and are feeling nostalgic for 20th century American culture, then give 1936 Bar & Grill a try, especially after a long day of gambling and/or walking along the beach. Shoutout to my future husband, Andy, and his family for taking me her

The food here is always great and I never had an issue until tonight. I placed an order for take out and when I got home one of the meals looked very under proportioned and looked like it was missing some ingredients. I immediately called in and they asked me to bring back the meal we were unhappy with. Even though it was a minor inconvenience I returned and they made a new meal which then looked exactly how it looked last time I had it during a dine in meal. Thank you for making it right without hesitation!

2 stars - 1 for potential and 1 for location. Bland would be the best way to describe the food. If you want to sell yourself as “All American” food, maybe don’t have Jackie Chan’s grandfather as the chef? Three meals and nothing with flavor, luke warm soup - and how can you mess up pretzel bites?! Really…. Would gave been better with a grocery store visit and a microwave - and would’ve saved a bunch of money. On the flip side, the server was very pleasant and attentive, venue is clean and spacious with good views and easy parking.

Well as of May 2025 I am not going back to this place! Stale bread for a crab cake that was mediocre at best. Very small wings under cooked green beans that they forgot to bring prices are high which would be fine if it was good. Save your money. They are understaffed and don’t care what they sling out. It’s a shame bc it use to be very good but the last 4 years has proved not worthy of my money nor yours. Maybe you go for a drink but then go to a real restaurant A new restaurant in Chesapeake beach, located on the 2nd and 3rd floor of the new parking garage on the rod and real parking lot. First off the views are amazing as they have a lot of windows and outdoor seating. So far I experienced the following: Steak and crabcake A- The crabcake was very good, no filler steak could have been

★★★★☆ 4.0 Guy Green Jr · Aug 2025

Hadn’t visited here in a long time. Was going regularly but the flies were out of control. Decided to visit again and sat outside. We enjoyed our food and menu was vastly different than our last visit. Most of our favorite items are gone but what we had was delicious.
