32 Palm

Came for breakfast. We had the Benedict on the beach, which 2 poached eggs, each on top of a crab cake, tomato, spinach, and English muffin with a hollandaise sauce finishing. This was served with a side of home fries.

The Benedict on the beach was pretty good. The home fries were cold.
Also, we ordered a stack of pancakes. Basic pancakes. But since I haven't had pancakes in a while, it hit the spot.
Service was average.

The next day, we went to the lounge section of the restaurant. Where there is a small happy hour menu and an extensive wine list. It was much busier than the main dining room. There were TVs in the bar to watch the game.

For food, we ordered crab gratin, Maryland crab soup, crab sandwich with onion rings, and fresh catch fish sandwich with coleslaw

The crab gratin was rich and creamy with lumps of crab with every scoop.
The crab soup was decent. But I prefer more if a cream-based crab soup.

The crab sandwich and fish sandwich were good. Both patties were small and flat served with a choice of fries, coleslaw, onion rings, or sweet potato fries.

The service was good.

The convenience and food and beverage credit are the reason for dining here. It's in the Hilton Ocean City Resort.

Since there is not an executive lounge at this property for Hilton diamond members, they provide a $15 per day credit food and beverage credit per guest.

The food and service was amazing.. I had the Surf & Turf..with Maryland Rockfish and Oxtail.. I would go back again

Our group trip. We stayed at the Hilton abs decided to eat at their restaurant one night.

Crab gratin... Really good
Jerk chicken.. Enjoyed
Truffle fries.. Ok
Shrimp toast.. Interesting
Some got the beet salad

I originally wanted the grilled salmon but they ran out of salmon so i had to get something else. Waitstaff recommend the Cioppino.
Honestly I didn't enjoy it. I took 90% of it to go, also as I was full from the appetizer but the Cioppino didn't inspire me at all, at all.

The win of the night was prob the crab gratin.

We have had food from 32 palm many times over the years. The Hilton honors F&B credit makes it easy to utilize the resident restaurant. Most meals and apps are fairly priced within the credit so you can enjoy complimentary breakfast or midday or night snacks. Food is fairly good for the price of convenient hotel food.

My partner and I came here for New Years Eve and had high expectations, we were excited.

We tried the crab dip and a surf and turf type meal. The crab dip is probably my favorite in the area but they do not give enough bread with it.

The surf and turf type of meal was alright. Nothing exciting. The crab cake was tasty, the chicken was somewhat juicy but still kind of dry and hard to cut, the potatoes were boring and the asparagus were flavorless. The dish needed acid and salt. I don't even remember the flavor of the sauce- or even everything together. The dish in itself- while edible- was forgettable.

My partner got the shrimp scampi, it was tasty but one note. Very buttery and rich. The shrimp was cooked perfectly. Nonetheless, with how creamy it was I wish it came with some type of bread or bread crumb type of topping and a bit more of acid- lemon? It needed it.

Lastly, we got dessert. The brownie with ice cream. It was good. Filling, rich, and dense. Would get it again, but didn't make my mouth water.

Also thing I didn't remember until we already paid the bill and stood up, but we realised we didn't get free bread like the other tables which is unfortunate because I remember coming last time and the bread being pretty good.


Nonetheless, this meal was average but did not meet our expectations. For about $140, we got an appetizer, two entrees, one holiday cocktail, and fountain drink, and a dessert- it wasn't a bad price but wish it was more memorable, especially for New Years Eve.

As for our service, the waiter was alright. Not great. Just alright. He barely stopped at our table, did not take our appetizer plates out of the way when we got our entree so we ate with them on the table, did not ask how our food was and we overheard the table beside us and how the food was described- when we asked him about how some meals were- it was a very blunt, no adjective based answer. Overall it was a very slow, uncommunicative experience. One pro from the serving experience was that I could not decide between two cocktails and asked for his recommendation and to just surprise me between two choices I was stuck on which he did with no problem at all.

Last thing, the atmosphere was clean, classy, and beautiful. It was a bit loud, but they were other customers enjoying their New Years so it was understandable.

Overall, we will come here again just not with such high expectations because as a New Years Dinner, it was not worth it and wish we went somewhere else.

In the Hilton oceanfront, we had it three days in a row this visit for breakfast as we stayed in that hotel. First two days I got western omelette and it was hot and full of vegetables. Only thing was an inconsistency with the home fries day to day , first day they were ok but a little cold, second day fantastic. I got French toast today and it was delicious perfectly cooked a little and nice flavor. Would get again. Service was great all three days, we got lucky and restaurant wasn't crowded any of the days. Very sunny inside with big windows .

The food has fallen off tremendously at this location as well as the service on a scale of 1to 10 I'll give the food a -2 which is more then enough reasons for me to never return but the hotel is nice so I'll stay but I'd never dine in and I wouldn't recommend this restaurant to ANYBODY

Me & my party went to go wait at the entrance of the place. (This restaurant is inside the hotel.)

It is next door to a bar/lounge. It was a bit hard to find cus it is a small door next door to the lounge which we mistaken the lounge for 32palm.

No one was at the front desk and they were too busy that it took a long while for them to let us in.

When we went in, the environment was ok, I felt like I walked into a little conference room that got turned into a restaurant.

The waiter who was taking care of our order, you can tell on his face & body language that he is just so done with everything doesn't want to be there and doesn't really care about anything and does not even want to pretend he wants to be there.

It seems he didn't care or didn't know about the menu to question the choice of toast before he left our table.

So when he came back, I had to tell him about the choice of toast. If I didn't tell him, he would've never brought out our toast.

The food looks great, it is lacking flavor for me though. I think the other ratings here are overrated.

The 32 Palm dining room was close so we ate in the adjacent bar. Ordered from the 32 Palm menus. Great food and great service. Eli was our server and bartender.

Coffee is Horrible. And breakfast is awful. I live this Hilton property but breakfast here sucks. I had breakfast few times and they r bad always.
