The story behind the Off the Hook Restaurant Group begins in 2010 when the Indian River Seafood Company opens the first restaurant Off the Hook in Bethany Beach, Delaware. A year later, Just Hooked opened in Fenwick Island followed with the opening of the first Maryland location, Hooked, in Ocean City, MD. And just when you thought we were running out of Hook names, we did it again — launching Hooked Up Ale House & Raw Bar in Millville, DE in 2015, our fourth restaurant in just five years. With the popularity of the restaurants, Taste Events was formed. Taste Events is the catering division of the Off the Hook Restaurant Group and offers full service catering to allow guests to enjoy our award-winning chefs’ cuisine, not only at events in one of our four restaurant locations but also at off-site events.
Owners Steve Hagen and Kevin Frey have now embarked on a new journey opening their newest location – Tailchasers Restaurant & Dock Bar. Tailchasers sits on the canal of 122nd street offering waterfront views, family-friendly dining, and the fresh, honest, local food and beverages Off the Hook Restaurant Group is known for.
Off the Hook Restaurant Group’s Restaurants and Catering Services are locally run serving the needs of each local community while being a hot spot for the seasonal crowd. The natural atmosphere of the coast continually inspires the chefs to create culinary masterpieces centered on freshness, creativity, and comfort. This company makes the idea of “Farm to Table” a reality for every customer at on-site and off-site events.

OMG you have to try them! From the moment my son and I stepped into the restaurant and smelled this wonderful light sweet fragrance and saw burning candles all around I knew I would love this place. We asked to be seated upstairs where it was nice, warm and cozy. We ordered a burger and a crab cake sandwich both with a side of fries. The food was delicious! I usually don’t get dessert but I gave their banana bread pudding a try and oh my God it was delicious! My son and I devoured it! The customer service we received was amazing and I can’t wait to visit them again. Thanks for the experience Tailchasers!

We visited Tailchasers during our stay in Ocean City because we were looking for a dog-friendly restaurant and had our dog, Spooky, with us. From the moment we arrived, the experience was exceptional.
We were immediately welcomed and seated on the back deck. Since this was Spooky's first restaurant experience, we asked if we could sit a little farther away from other guests while she got accustomed to the environment. The staff could not have been more accommodating and found us the perfect spot.
Our waitress, Bella, was outstanding. She anticipated every need, not only for us but for Spooky as well. On a hot summer day, she even brought Spooky a bowl of ice-cold water, which was greatly appreciated.
The food, service, and atmosphere were all wonderful, but what really stood out was how genuinely welcoming everyone was to our dog. They made what could have been a stressful first restaurant visit into a fun and memorable experience.
We had such a great time that we're already looking forward to returning for dinner before our trip is over. It truly was the best dog day ever!
Thank you, Bella, and the entire Tailchasers team for making us feel so welcome.
