The Backstretch - Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich with fries

The Backstretch

(85 reviews)

$$

Have to say this has become one of our favorites for casual dining with amazing food. Drove to…read moredowntown Delaware and found easy parking on the street (there are also nearby lots). Backstretch is super casual (given Ohio Wesleyan is nearby - its almost a college/town bar) but great to come in a sit at the bar or one of their booths. It isnt big, maybe 15-20 bar stools and 12 booths and 1-2 tables. This time we picked a booth and a great server (Jacobi) helped us right away. Fun part of backstretch is the staff. Servers are friendly, you can watch the cooks prepare your food, and they have a full bar. Note they dont have many draft beer options, but servers tried hard to get us something we liked. Food here is fresh off the grill and tastes like home cooked food - from their Reuben(which was amazing) to Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich (has kick but so good) - you cant go wrong. This time we added Tots, Mac and Cheese, and the Deviled eggs (most sandwiches are served with a deviled egg - tasty). We also tried Jacobi recommendation of Hencock Tots - wing sauce - cheese and bacon. Should have just made that my meal. Amazing. They dont take reservations but unless there is an event in downtown, you can usually walk in for dinner. This was our third visit in 60 days! Ready to go back - thanks Jacobi for a fun night and see you all soon.

Came here for the tater tots and wasn't disappointed! So good and the star. My wife had the nut…read morecrusted chicken salad which was also good. I had the Reuben...big mistake, not a lot of meat. Get the tots when you come here and thank me later!!!

Rosebud's - "Cheesy Burger", BEWARE of burning your fingers fishing it out of the molten cheese lava lake

An honest review. Have really been wanting to try this place. Got the burger because everyone raves…read moreabout it. Basically a smash burger cut in half in melted cheese. Great presentation but fell slightly short of more gimmick than "chef inspired." Burger just wasn't anything special for a $20 burger. Thurman across the street is probably a better choice. My wife got the Cod Schnitzel, sounded good but was a pretty small piece of fish for $27. I asked how it was, she said bland, even with the sauce. Really wanted to love this place. Might try again to see but unfortunately wasn't what we were hoping for. On the bright side, man our server was 1000% wonderful!!! So attentive and wonderful!

This spot was open late, which I really appreciated, and I was warmly welcomed even after 9 PM…read more Ana, who helped me, was patient and kind--definitely 5 stars for service. I had a hard time deciding what to order; the burger seemed popular, but I went with the fried chicken. Presentation was beautiful but ....For my taste, both the chicken and the pickled fries were a bit too salty, and the cocktail didn't quite hit the mark for me. I ended up taking the meal home because I really don't like wasting food--might repurpose the chicken for breakfast. Overall, I do wonder if the owners regularly taste the food themselves; it would be great if the balance of flavors was revisited. The space and service are lovely, and with a few tweaks, the food could really shine.

STOP AND READ! Don't…read morego here. Save your money! They don't acknowledge you when you walk in! They take forever to seat you! The waiter reeks of cigarette smoke! The table was absolutely disgusting- see pic! We asked for sanitizer and he said he would bring it back and never bought it back. We have an immunocompromised child and cannot risk her eating off a dirty table. I had to go to bathroom to get a paper towel and soap and wash my own table off. Why??? The town of Delaware is bustling but no one is in here! Obviously there is a reason! I saw a few employees in the banquet area eating pizza. Where is everyone?? Oh they are in the back! An employee in the hallway seemed dumbfounded when I asked her for sanitizer. She finally bought it to my table. The place is dead. The place is unkept. Bathroom stalls with no trash can liners. The list could go on and on. Health department needs to pay a visit and have a come to Jesus talk with this joke of an establishment. Definitely need to have an employee meeting to discuss hygiene and etiquette so customers can have an enjoyable meal without having an asthma attack triggered by an employee. Never again!

Pros: Good location and friendly service…read moreEnjoyed the fried cheese curds Cons: Got the Ruben but substituted rye with Texas toast - this was super salty and the slices of meat were thick and overdone The side of fries were equally super salty Table was sticky and the restaurant felt unkept in general Pro tip: Normally love this chain, but sadly this location missed the mark
