Oatmeal cookie ice cream sandwich
Christina M.

We really enjoyed our dinner at Heirloom! The interior is very charming- you can tell it's a renovated house, so it feels very cozy (but there was still enough space between tables). We were seated near the bay window, which was a nice spot. The cocktail menu had five choices- I tried the basil gimlet, which was excellent. For starters, we had the beef and lamb hand pies, tuna tartare, burrata, and octopus. The beef and lamb hand pies were excellent- they were so flavorful and came with a really tasty sauce. Our table's favorite was the tuna tartare, which came in little blue corn cups- they actually weren't hard to cut and share. The octopus was also excellent, everything it came with on the plate was very flavorful. The burrata was good, but not as much of a standout as the others. Before our starters, we were also served sourdough bread with two butters (one was a plain salted and one was a blueberry butter)- the bread was nice and fresh and the blueberry butter was so delicious and different. Our entrées were the porcini rubbed steak, the chicken, and the basil and paprika pasta. The pasta was SO flavorful- more than I expected! It was cooked in lardo and it was a perfect fresh summer dish. The chicken was a bit tough, but came served with this absolutely delicious side of squash stuffed with black eyed peas- it was a little spicy and very different and really made the plate for me. The steak had a nice umami flavor because of the porcini rub and came with very good mashed potatoes. For dessert, the oatmeal cookie ice cream sandwich was excellent- it came served as almost a strip, so it actually was pretty easy to share. We also had the vanilla panna cotta, which was the only thing we really weren't fans of- it just didn't stand out and was served with very bittersweet chocolate shortbread. However, the standout was the espresso martini, which is listed on the menu as "the best espresso martini"- and they are right!! It really is the best I've ever had. There was a special menu of rosé wines, so we decided to try one of those with our dinner- it turned out to be a natural/organic wine, which I wish had been mentioned on the menu, because we don't usually order those and we weren't a huge fan of it. Overall, we really enjoyed our meal and are excited to come back! The menu changes regularly (I think monthly), and you can tell they are very thoughtful with selecting seasonal options.

Manhattan

Always said this was one of my favorite restaurants....and it delivered tonight. Cocktails, right on; then stated with a charcuterie board and added a few cheeses...All so good, especially the foie gras (my favorite). We had a couple of red wines, bottles, a blend to start and then a Domaine La Barroche, good put a little thinner than the blend what we started with...All good. Entrees I had the stuffed fluke with pesto and asparagus...just ummm....Wifey had the stuffed filled pasta...very tasty; just my opinion needed a touch more fire on the pasta..but the flavors were there ... others had the pork chop..looked incredible...that was my second choice, next time. I was really looking forward to dessert, but no one ordered so I'll have to wait till next time. Looking forward to the flourless chocolate cheesecake . The restaurant is beautiful than ever, bathrooms are spotless...(in the industry & when we reviewed places is was one of the things we had to include). Megan the owner has done a fabulous job with the space, staff and The Restaurant...definitely need to check it out...I will be back soon. Thank You Heirloom FOH & BOH.

Dirty Martini and Manhatten on the Rocks
Steven A.

Very Good!!!! Started with Dirty Martini...... very good with the best Blue Cheese stuffed Olives I've had in a long time..... Wife had a Manhatten that was also very good..... Sourdough Bread (yes they brought bread without asking or charging for) and came with two soft butters. One butter was regular and one was a strawberry based butter... Appys.... We had the Blue Cheese Board, which was AMAZING!!!! And we also had the Grilled Octopus, which was also great!!!!! Main course..... My wife had the Lamb, which was not served like she expected (shredded), but once again fell in line with everything that we had so far and was great!!!!! And I had the Pork Chop, which was cooked to perfection (I don't like any red in my Meats and lots of restaurants don't know hoot cook that way and dry out the meat), but this was juicy and tender and just unbelievable!!!!!! Sorry, but no room for desert, Maybe next time!!!!!! All in all great food and atmosphere, and I can't wait to go back!!!!!!

Duck
Hunter K.

$$$ out of $$$. Very pricey, but high quality. You get what you pay for, and the food here is usually top tier. Unfortunately the menus are not clearly marked "gluten free". Nor are they marked for any dietary restrictions. The servers are straightforward, friendly, and helpful with recommendations. There were no dessert items that were gluten free the third time I've went. Staff were super friendly. The venison tasted exactly like the duck, but the sauces were good. Not quite worth the high price but if you want a bougie meal this is the place. Very nice atmosphere, moody and cozy. Fun decor.

New England Halibut

Heirloom was amazing and we had a wonderful experience. It was the best food we had on our trip - and we had some great food! Freshness and quality were outstanding. I had the New England Halibut, which was cooked to perfection. My husband had the Heirloom Veggie Bowl, amazing farm to table. We shared the Kennett Square mushroom mix highly recommend. Our server, Angel, was wonderful. Parking is on the side streets by the restaurant. We didn't have any trouble finding parking off season.

Steak
Eve Neider N.

Such a cute, quaint house turned into a restaurant. From the decor to the meal it was an amazing dining experience! It has a rustic, flowery vibe. I definitely recommend making reservations. We got the tomato toast which is super fresh, it doesn't have too much tomato, toast was fresh and warm, and it is pretty big portion definitely recommend . We also got the cheese board from Unionville, like half of the cheeses were good and half were average. The homemade crackers with it were really good and crunchy, I do think it's expensive for what you get. We got Mai tai which was really good and strong. For our main courses we got the steak, pork chop, veggie bowl, and ravioli and we all loved our dishes! Service was amazing as they were taking our empty plates right away, refilling our water, wiping our table multiple times, and checking in. Staff were very nice and friendly!

This place was very good. Amazing service and even more amazing food. The ambience was great and I would highly recommend this place for a nice dinner.

Pork chop
Missy S.

I love Heirloom! Have been here twice over the past year and I have enjoyed it overall. The cocktails are great. One time I had the Heirloom Dirty and it was off - not sure what happened there but was assured it was an odd night. And it was because the next time around it was terrific! I still dream of the soft shell crab dinner special I had last summer: Was hoping that they'd have the same this year, but sadly there were no specials at all on offer, and we dined on a Saturday night in the height of summer. The burrata/stone fruit salad was great and generously portioned. The rockfish rocked! The octopus carpaccio was ok as was the s'more dessert was just ok. The service is warm and friendly but I was perplexed why our salad/bread plates and empty cocktail glasses were not bussed for the entire meal. Heirloom has good things going on but should pay attention to the details to be truly amazing.

Scallops
Morgan F.

Great service and really good scallops! Definitely check out the menu before you go (just because it's smaller and unique)

Cheese board menu
Jane H.

Had a delicious birthday meal here. Walking in we enjoyed the sun kissed interior and the fresh garden and nature inspired decor. The menu featured seasonal ingredients- I had a pea shoot, radish, and spinach salad to start and enjoyed the pea shoots and the buttermilk dressing. My entree was the house made ravioli filled with dill and goat cheese. Super enjoyed the puff mushrooms which had a chickeny juicy texture and the slices of garlic with romanesco cauliflower. My husband got the mahi mahi with Carolina rice porridge and shiitake- tons of umami flavor in this dish with perfectly juicy fish. We ended the meal with the carrot walnut blondie topped with the most decadent buttercream on which nested some soaked dried cherries and golden raisins. Truly could have eaten just a cup full of the buttercream and fruit topping. Husband had the blue cornmeal pound cake. The contrast between the toothy almost savory cornmeal, sweet cream and sour lemon curd was excellent. I enjoyed my blood orange spritzer very much. Beautiful meal, flavors, and atmosphere!

See all

Is there a dress code?

I don't think so, however country club or summer casual will fit nicely. No beach wet swim suits!

When do reservations open for outside seating?

When our party arrived, we sat in a place that would be good with the dogs, because their was another dog near the entrance. My friend had asked for a high chair and the high chair arrived beyond disgusting. We were all grossed out by the state of the high chair and our table - no one wiped it clean or did anything. I helped and cleaned it for my friend and the picture that I posted is after the fact it's been wiped. Please imagine how bad it was before I wiped it with 4 sanitizing wipes. The waitress, Becky came over and asked if we're ready to order, meanwhile she saw our entire party wiping the tables and high chair and never once offered to clean it. She didn't even understand that we haven't looked at the menu because we're too busy doing the restaurant's job to offer a clean environment to eat and dine. She seemed annoyed that we weren't ready and left and turns out the other dog was her daughter's and they were there hanging out. She, of course seemed more cheerful there, then she was with our party that just sat. We haven't done anything to annoy her besides just arriving. The restaurant did provide water bowls for the dogs, but no one really seemed to be happy to see dogs being there, so not sure why this place would be a great place to take dogs. I just really thought all the staff here would all love dogs. I didn't taste the smashburger, but it was flagged that it wasn't a true smashburger, since there wasn't any crispiness or thinness. It was just a regular burger. I got the mussels daily flavour that was "Thai" - decent, but a lot of the mussels came closed and not sure why it would be "Thai" when they used jalapenos as their heat. Shrimp Basket - not great. Very disappointing experience - wished I didn't pick this place and wasted a meal here for the sake of wanting to bring my dogs to a place where I thought would be a great place for them.

Harbour - Steak and Cake off season special

Harbour

Steak and Cake Special with a Canal View…read more Tried Harbor in Lewes, Delaware, located right along the canal in the downtown district, and it definitely leans toward the upscale side of dining in town. As soon as you walk in, you can feel that polished, higher end atmosphere, and the canal views make for a really nice setting. I went during the off season in early March and caught their Wednesday night Steak and Cake special. For $36 you get a six ounce filet mignon, a crab cake, mashed potatoes, green beans, and a Caesar salad. For a restaurant of this caliber, that's a pretty solid deal. The Caesar salad came out fresh and crisp, and for the first time ever I noticed something you rarely see anymore -- two small sardine strips on top, which is actually the traditional way to serve a true Caesar. The entree was nicely plated. The filet was ordered medium. Parts of it were cooked perfectly and very tender, though a couple bites were a little chewy. The crab cake was the highlight. Very meaty with minimal filler, which is exactly what you want this close to the Delaware coast. Mashed potatoes had that homemade style with a few lumps. Some people love that rustic feel, though I personally prefer them a little smoother. The green beans were simply steamed but had great flavor. Service was excellent. My waitress Kim was friendly, attentive, and very accommodating. The restaurant itself was clean and well kept, including the restrooms. Overall, a very enjoyable meal with great flavor across the board. I'd definitely come back and would be curious to see what the atmosphere is like here during the busy summer season.

For dinner, we had a wonderful seat in the corner with a waterfront view. This is a lovely restaurant. Service was excellent as well. The mussel appetizer was delicious - white sauce with the crusty bread was so good. Crab dip was ok. The lamb shank special was also delicious - meat was braised fork-tender. The mahi mahi special was good, maybe a little dry, but I really enjoyed the bed of wild rice that it was served with, a little chew and lots of rich flavor. The disappointment of the night was the brisket - I suppose after having brisket from Texas, you're forever spoiled and can't help but judge everything to that standard. It was dry and a little tough, not a lot of flavor. Overall highly recommend, this remind one of my favorite Lewes restaurants.

We arrived around 11:30 and got seated immediately and there were a few open tables still left so a good time to go. I would say the greeter was not super friendly and it took a good 10 plus minutes for someone to come to the table. A waitress that noticed that we had not been helped for awhile caught my eye as I was looking for our server stopped by and took our drink order and apologized for the wait and shared that most servers were just coming on duty. So that was the only negatives I have for our lunch. The restaurant is not super large but it is very cute. Has a lot of cute decorations and a good feel, although I am not a big fan of plastic over the seat coverings but I understand it makes it easier to keep it clean. I ordered a western omelette (don't forget to tell them to add cheese or you don't get any) and potatoes and a biscuit. Also had a glass of the fresh squeezed OJ and it was perfect. The food was excellent and the portion size was good, my only comment was that the biscuit could have been a bit more cooked but the taste was divine. My husband had the reuben and fries and his was very good also. The cost was a little over $50 so not somewhere I would go daily for breakfast but it is located in the tourist area so to be expected. I would recommend a visit for a great meal and I am looking forward to going again and trying some pancakes or French toast. Enjoy!

Cheesesteak egg roll was more "roll" than contents -- actually kind of hard to get down. Manhattan clam chowder needed more seasoning and needed to be warmer in temperature. I think the kitchen was really struggling to keep up with the number of people in the restaurant.
