Philly was ok. Fries were great.
Corey D.

Was looking for a simple lunch and a place to sit down to dine. Visiting Dover the past 10 days, my dining has been limited. Grottos was in walking distance so I thought I would give them a shot. I walked in to the Sports Bar and there was seating available. Its nice how there are tv screens along all walls. If you are a NFL or sports fan, this would be the place to go. I was greeted quickly and decided to order a Philly and fries. Since this place prides itself on pizza, I wanted to try a slice of cheese. I recieved the slice first. It was hot, cheese melted in my mouth. The slice wasn't thick, but it wasn't super thin either. I dont like paper thin pizza crust. The Philly was a touch dry, and I was surprised I didn't see any with onions and peppers. Fries were hot and on point. I would say good simple lunch that I was looking for. Mission accomplished!!

Great place to catch a game, grab a beer, and hangout with friends or family. This place is split, so the "adult" and kid side don't collide. There are multiple TVs in the game area and plenty of games in the game room for kids. I've only ever gotten pizza and wings here and I can't complain about the flavor or price. Nothing spectacular, but not horrible. Service wise, I am always greeted with a smile and check on appropriately. If your dropping off your kid to college, stop here before heading back.

I don't like going to Grottos but my sister makes me anytime she is visiting from out of town. She loves the pizza, me not so much. It's best to eat the pizza while it's still hot because as soon as it cools down it tastes like plastic. It is a nice and big restaurant with lots of TVs for you to enjoy sports games. Service has always been decent. I do like that they have a mini arcade where the kids can play. Help yourself to free popcorn.

Finally a frozen magarita!  @ Grotto Pizza Dover.

It's pretty festive at Grotto Pizza Dover. I've counted 20 Christmas trees thus far. Nice. After a long day of cooking, family, friends and fellowship, it was time to unwind. We returned to Dover Downs casino but as it was a bit crowded, decide to give this place a try. It's one spot devided into two, Pizza parlor and pub. I even saw my bartender doubling up as a waiter on the pizza side. We got here on last call but was able to get the elusive magarita (because it's a seasonal drink and winter is not the season). My magarita was okay. The vibe of the place was nice. Telly screens surround most of the walls but when I walked in they were all on the same channel. Seems like this is the spot the 30-40 something Dovanians (obviously my word) chill at. The place was also clean especially this close to closing time. Nice. If am ever in the area again you bet ima be back. Besides it appears to be the only other popular spot other than the casino. The End.

Greenbay packers fans

we went to watch the eagles vs greenbay game tonight & have dinner. our two kids are greenbay fans so we took them out to watch the game. the young man who seated us was great!!! the food was yummy!! manger was great in the arcade when issues with the prizes. our only issue was how rude the staff got over not being a ealges supporter. we were rushed out the door b4 we even made to the 2nd quarter!!! we weren't even finshed our food b4 we were brought box's/bill b4 we were done eating. place was dead so no reason to rush us out like this. kids can't sit at the bar to young & figured this is the best place kid friendly to take them to see the game since we didn't have cable to watch it. wrong!!! we got dirty looks when we didn't get up fast enough staff lingered by our table until we would leave very unprofessional & rude!!! they are kids wearing jerseys!! 7 year old girl & 12 year old boy not very one is going to like the same football team it's america!!! Y'all are grown adults don't be so childish!!! it's really sad that you ruined the whole night after coming back from my sons 12th birthday party football themed Party!!! sadly we won't be returning or supporting this location. we'll be going to watch football at buffalo wild wing for now on. Do better as adults it's only a game don't make other people feel bad for who they like & they are kids!!!

Lots of seating and that same grotto taste you would find at the beach! They have a nice size bar and offer football betting.

Had the opportunity to stop at Touchdown with my buddy Elliot who I hadn't seen in years when I was…read morein the area for Firefly. And by that I mean I dropped my girlfriend and her daughter at Firefly and I devoted my day to sampling foods and drinks around the town with my buddy. He said this is his spot for Sunday football so we popped in and checked out some appetizers. We decided to go with some fried pork potstickers and some "boom tots". The potstickers were crispy and delicious and came with a teriyaki sauce to dip them in. I personally felt they were great without the sauce and thought the sauce actually made them a bit too salty. The Boom tots were very good. They have a regular loaded tots dish and then this one, so we decided to go outside the box a bit. These had crumbled bacon, melted mozzarella, and the "boom boom sauce" on them which is basically most companies knock off of the bang bang shrimp sauce that (insert name of chain restaurant that I can't remember here) made famous. Had some adult beverages and watched some sports and caught up with my buddy over these apps...what more can you ask for? Touchdown - Didn't Suck!

Worst service ever. There were eight of us and we had made reservations the day before. Our food…read morecame out about 2 meals at a time over the course of an hour. The food was lukewarm, if that.

But you knew that when you drove up to this unprepossessing cafe-bar that looks like a former 50's frozen custard stand turned into biker bar. Which, it probably is. The gals under Valerie's management fly at light speed out of the kitchen, serving Yuengling lager on tap (yeah!) and the usual Bud offering as well as hot and cold sandwiches, Boardwalk fries, nachos and all the things that your doctor and dietician say "not to." There is a pinball machine (featuring Harley Davidson backbox), several other electronic games, one of which has a customized "joke" seat (toilet seat nailed to a wooden captains chair, along with a handy roll and dispenser on the back. Quaint! But don't get any dumb ideas!) Tables are comfy or you can sit at the bar. No booths. The steak sandwiches are well-known in these part and taste good; too good. There is one that is about as long as Jeremy Lin's arm. Seriously. It's huge. In case you can't imagine that, lacquered (I hope) rolls are hanging near the cash register so you can estimate roll length versus appetite strength. The bun has recently exceeded the meat content but their prices have stayed steady so you know what's happening. We all have to manage somehow. I'm not sorry as the flavor is good and I don't need so much saturated fat in any case. I do not fault them. The crowd is what you'd call "eclectic" or "local" and this is not a dainty boite to take a first date unless you already know he or she is a fan of local, very local bars. For local this is. Personally, I always love such places and our state has some of the better locals-only spots that are entirely enjoyable and beat a chain restaurant any day of the week. Valerie's is clean. It smells ONLY of beer, which I can't say about some other places I've visited. No cigarette smoke as our state has gone no-indoor-plumbing, I mean, indoor smoking.

After a long day hanging out with a buddy of mine, popped in here solo to grab a drink and check…read moreout a cheesesteak that had some pretty good reviews online. I will say the bartender was very nice and the drinks were solid. The cheesesteak unfortunately was not. Perhaps it was good for this area, but for someone who has tried 20+ from spots in Philly and surrounding areas, it was nowhere near the conversation. Meat was a bit dry, not enough cheese, and the bread was too soft so if there was more cheese, it would have ripped right through the bread. Loved the place, would like to go back and try other foods and hang out for karaoke again, but i'd pass on the cheesesteak next time around.
