    Resting blitz face
    Sherry J.

    What a fun place! We attended a private party here on Dec 20. The bartenders were terrific, especially Zach from Bardea. We were drinking resting blitz face and wow, it was so delicious. Vodka, pomegranate, pinapple and sprite, what's not to love! This was the best Christmas party I attended for RJ's work in 7 years. Can't wait to come back next year!

    Cute spot for a winter night out! Definitely recommend this place for weeknights as the weekends can get crowded but with the additional room and backyard sections, it's way better than previous years! Drinks are pricey but good for a photo opp. We tried the seasonal cocktails- resting blitz face and the moose milk that comes with a cookie!

    Pop-Up holiday themed bar in Wilmington. Packed on the weekends, nice spot of you want to get out and be around a lot of people during the holidays. I loved all the lights and Christmas decor. They play Christmas music in the background, the music isn't very loud, but the chattering of people was loud. They had Christmas Sangria, a selection of holiday beers and other standard spirits. The space is very small and it gets packed very fast. It was too packed for my personal taste, but everyone in there looked like they were having a great time so I can't knock it. It is always nice to see a business full of life and actually thriving in Wilmington. Check it out for yourself, they're open until January!

    Overpriced drinks that take too long to get. Need another bartender and some better drink recipes.

The french fries came out a little fried, but the server was quick to fix this and brought out new baskets. The kids meals have a lot of food. I had the crabcake sandwich which I inhaled in a few seconds. It was delicious. The cioppino is also really good too.

Happy hour means $6 well drinks, so my standard is rum and diet Coke. Good drink, single pour of Cruzan. I chose to dine at the bar because the weather was a little steamy out. But I later took my second drink out onto their riverfront patio, and sat awhile in the shade of the building. It was lovely. For snacks, I ordered the blackened filet medallions and the garlic mussels. On a skewer, four hefty pieces of excellent beef were joined with a nifty horseradish dip. I did cut the steak into several bites per piece, so it was a good sized portion. My only preference would have been some garnish (greens maybe?). The mussels normally come with bread, but I let them keep it in the kitchen to sub my own GF bread from home. The broth was thin and lightly flavored, which I enjoyed almost like a soup (but was too embarrassed to tip the bowl). The patron to my right bemoaned the loss of a thicker broth from a previous recipe, so the bartender brought him some scampi butter which helped apparently. I really loved the light broth and found it soaked into the bread quite nicely. Friendly bartender gal cashed me out at my request before I took my drink on the patio. $30 plus tip, well spent. I could be a regular here, and look forward to another visit to Wilmington next time we are in Philly.

Amanda, our server, was a ray of sunshine and was especially attentive to our little one. she has a grandchild and relished the special time our daughter had while eating away from home. The layout is pretty basic with a series of long high-top tables with a few lower tables to boot. I asked for a spicy Blood-Mary and that's exactly what I received ! Well done! Other breakfast items came as ordered and all of the food was very good . Prices were fair and we really enjoyed our time there and whenever in the area would definetly return.

The food is delicious and seasoned very well. It was better than many of the offsite restaurants we tried. Everyone there is so friendly and we got to know many of the servers, bartenders, etc. Kudos to Tiera, Victoria and Amanda who are all awesome! During our visits, we had the pan seared salmon, grilled pork chop, crab eggrolls and fried mozzarella. The salmon and pork chop were delicious! The eggrolls had a great crab flavor and a sauce that had a slight kick. There is inside and outside seating. I recommend River Rock Kitchen if you are staying at the hotel or in the area.

Our server was gracious enough to have the temperature increased by a degree or two which was fine. We ordered the quiche and the mushroom crepe along with the french martini, mint julep and bloody mary. The drinks were fine and well presented. The mushroom crepe was also good, with a nice, flavorful thin crepe "boxing in" a firm and well-cooked egg. The quiche was nice and light but was fraught with way too much salt. The frisee that came with the quiche was so overdone with salt that it was inedible and you couldn't even taste the lardon bacon. We have not yet been here for dinner but would not recommend brunch as anything special. The service started out ok but then waned a bit once we ordered drinks. We literally had to wait patiently to even ask our server for coffee refills and more creamer. For a Sunday morning venue that should offer something distinctly different from the diner and coffee shop fare in North Wilmington, we were clearly disappointed.
