Nestled in a renovated octagonal building reminiscent of an old lighthouse, this restaurant offers a vibrant atmosphere with water views and numerous TVs perfect for sports fans. Diners appreciate the diverse menu, from delectable crab fries to perfectly grilled chili cheese dogs, and the standout fried chicken. While some dishes have missed the mark, with undercooked mussels or overly salty options, others shine with generous portions and great flavors. The friendly staff and the restaurant's late hours add to its appeal, making it a go-to spot for casual dining or enjoying a sunset drink. Overall, it's an experience worth repeating.

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 here before work!

Food was great and views by the water were perfect and just what I needed. I ordered shrimp and oysters and loved every bit of it. We were served by Adam. Parking was available which was a gem for this city girl to not have to struggle to find parking. Will definitely be back. Service: Dine in Meal type: Lunch

Great location and atmosphere. Been here a couple of times. This time I got the foot long chili cheese dog with sauerktaut. Had not had one in a long time. The dog itself was a bit salty for me. I will say that I am typically a chicken dog kinda girl andthis was beef so it was expected. Overall it was delicious! The dog was perfectly grilled and the chili cheese and kraft was onpoint. The fries were golden and perfectly crispy no ketchup needed! Great Choice! Will be polishing this bad boy off today.

What a delightful experience! With my daughter and my beautiful bride, we just really enjoyed ourselves. If you remember the old Smokey Joe 's down at the Rod and Reel club, you will really enjoy the 1936. It is like an updated modern version of the oldrestaurant with more or less the same cuisine, especially the fried chicken. Drinks and food items on the menu we 're reasonablypriced if you consider that this is a resort location for the DC metropolitan area. The selection was definitely focused onSouthern Maryland delicacies. I must confess that I might have even liked a little more selection of Southern Marylandofferings. Nonetheless, a very good sampling. We ordered the rockfish bites as an appetizer and the last time I had rockfishthis fresh and this good, I had caught it myself out of the bay. The Southern Maryland fried Chicken is definitely a musthave food item. But if seafood is your desire, I would heartily suggest the crab cakes. The beer selection was quite adequateand the cocktail menu look quite extensive as well. We did not have room for dessert, but it looked like a very yummyselection. The restaurant was not terribly busy but the service staff seemed somewhat stretched. We had to actually ask for ourcheck and the waitress only revisited us once. However to her credit, we were actually doing just fine. We will definitelyreturn to this establishment and try more of their delightful food offerings and drinks too.
