Ho Feng Garden is a Chinese and sushi restaurant just outside downtown Berlin. Sushi is one of the house specialties, and the selection of creative rolls is extensive. Wonton chips and duck sauce are served as free appetizers when you sit down. Though dinner at Ho Feng Garden is popular, it's a particularly good place to go for lunch because of its affordable lunch specials. Go one mile southwest on Cathell Road, and you'll arrive at Ocean Resorts Golf Club.

Rayne's Reef Luncheonette
Rayne's Reef Luncheonette has been in business in the center of Berlin's downtown area since 1901. Though it has been renovated several times over the years, it still adheres to old-fashioned methods of preparing its house specialties--beef burgers and hand-dipped ice cream milkshakes. It resembles a classic soda counter establishment and is a favorite among locals. It was also prominently featured in the Julia Roberts film "The Runaway Bride," which was largely filmed on location in Berlin. Deer Run Golf Course is less than a mile to the south of Rayne's Reef Luncheonette.

Assateague Crab House
The Maryland coast is known for its superior crab, so it's no wonder that Berlin would be home to more than one stellar crab shack.
