The restaurant is very clean. The bathrooms are also very clean. We googled this choice as a long road trip lunch stop! We had checked out the menu and were fairly certain what we wanted.... the Friday special was "50% off bottles of wine and po'boy specials." I looked for the special po'boy on the menu but there wasn't one... so we asked the waitress ... was the po'boy on the menu half off? Nope! Hmmmmm, I'm thinking that sign needed punctuation to make that clear!
So, I ordered fish and chips. The amount of fish was smaller than the child size portion at a place on Virginia Beach. Cost of our meal for what we received was underwhelming to say the least.
My husband ordered clam chowder which was so over thickened with flour that it was aweful. His onion rings were spectacular. Honestly.... they were the only upside of the meal!

We were reminded today while dining in an upscale waterfront restaurant in Portsmouth NH of this disappointing meal at Matt's. We shared a fisherman's platter today that the half portion of the meal was larger than this fish & chips meal!

They have fresh oysters, oyster shooter was good, can’t compete with Japanese oysters shooter though. Fried oyster was ok, coleslaw was bland, need more seasoning, french fried cold, hard and dry, should substitute for something else people. Clam chowder was lil salty, probably left it for too long. Service was good though. Anyways, decent food and service, not bad

Went to the location in Bethany Beach. This was my first time. The restaurant does not take reservations and we came in at 7 PM on a Monday evening and had to only wait about 20 minutes. The service and food are delicious and they have specials on different days. Monday is it 25% off the check. We started off with the calamari which was extremely tender and not spicy. It was accompanied with a delicious tomato sauce, which was quite mild. One of us had the fish stew and the other one had the crabcakes both entrées were fantastic.
