Went to the Shark yesterday afternoon for a couple of beers and some apps. Congrats to Travis and his kitchen staff, the Shrimp Dumplings and the Pork Potstickers were better than any available in Ocean City, Asian restaurant or not. Also had the Crispy Fried Oysters, great as usual. Keep up the good work! For those who don’t know the Shark is the most innovative and daring restaurant in Ocean City and probably the Eastern Shore.
