8 piece fried chicken $20

This is my first time patronizing this place while searching for good fried chicken. Very friendly and even brought my to go order to my car with a smile I might add . I got the 8 piece. Once I got home I took a bite of the breast and it was juicy and very tasty. I give it 5 stars. The only thing I suggest is changing the oil due to the slightly burnt taste, but I would go back again .

Great food, great prices. I eat here at least once a week. I really enjoyed the home made desserts. They were original and hit the spot.

Lettie's has the best fried chicken of anywhere around Hockessin. I would say they even blow Walt's out of the water.

Stopped in on a Friday night-We had reservations, and I strongly recommend you do the same-place…read morewas bustling! Bar area with high tops when walking in, dining room as well. Menu had many choices, we opted for some steak dishes. I really recommend their wings-they were delicious. Everything was good, waitress was excellent.

This was my first visit back here since 2018. I had grouper back then and have never had Redfire's…read moresteak, and RJ has never been here at all. We got seats at the bar right away, and the bartender was knowledgable and friendly. She got RJ signed up for rewards which include another restaurant he visits often. We started with cheesesteak spring rolls which we try every time we find a new version somewhere, and they were crispy and delicious. I'm not 100% sure which steaks we ordered because we forgot to grab the detailed order receipt. However, I only order filet mignon and I believe it was with au poivre, and his was probably some type of strip because that is what he usually gets. The steaks were juicy and cooked perfectly with that buttery smoky flavor that comes from whatever magic it is they do back there in the kitchen. It was melt in your mouth goodness, and RJ was jealous of my mashed potatoes and broccolini. We finished with the cheesecake which was so original and different with apple butter and pecans. This was a perfect ending to our visit, and Redfire is definitely going on the restaurants we love rotation.

Came here for dinner with my wife and infant son on the first night of our 11-day east coast trip,…read moreand honestly it set the perfect vibe for the rest of the trip. The food gives you that fine dining experience without the pretentiousness. The staff is warm and friendly -- shout out to Chet for his amazing service. They were also very accommodating to our son who was in between napping when we began dining, setting up a high chair for us in a way that would allow him to continue sleeping in his car seat. We started the meal off with some seared scallops that were perfectly arranged. Next, my wife had some seared tuna while I ordered the Colorado bison -- both items off of the special seasonal menu. The dishes were incredibly flavorful and the veggies that surrounded the meat added a nice complement. I also really enjoyed my California cab, as did my wife with her house Manhattan. We will definitely be back next time we are in Delaware, and highly recommend to anyone visiting the Hockessin area!

We dined here last week. The service was excellent. The…read morefood was good for the most part. Points to improve: my appetizer of country pate was served with blackened toast. (Server rectified) The pasta carbonara was prepared using guanciale instead of bacon or pancetta. I found it too rich and almost over cooked. The duck wings appetizer my friend had were excellent. The fresh fish entree was delicious. The cheesecake dessert was a thing of beauty. I would probably try again, but it's a half an hour away. (We passed way too many other restaurants to try)

My friend and I dined here in tonight. We were sat promptly with our 6:00 reservation. Someone came…read moreover shortly after to fill our water glasses and they mentioned our server would be with us shortly. About twenty minutes later nobody had come over and the restaurant wasn't all that busy. A couple sat down around that time next to us who within a few minutes was visited by a server and given fresh bread. We waited another ten minutes until a little after 6:30 before going to the hostess who told us she'd let someone know. A few minutes later the server who was serving the couple directly next to us came to us, apologized and started our evening. We both ordered the scallop and shrimp risotto and a few minutes later our server came to tell us they were out of scallops. That happen but it's better if the server tells you up front what they are out of. I ended up still getting the risotto with double shrimp instead of both proteins and my friend got the short rib. She said the short rib was very tender. My food was good too. I had the bourbon mule to drink and it was too sweet for my tastes. The ambience was ok but I sort of got a negative vibe from the 30+ minute wait for a server who was inches away from us and didn't notice we weren't being served.

I have been enjoying re-visiting restaurants we have not visited in over 10 years. There is no…read morespecific reason we didn't return to the Back Burner because I remember it being fantastic. My last visit was March of 2014, and I am very happy it is still here. We had reservations for the bar area, and were seated right away at a small table. We started with a Pomegranate Bellini and vodka and sprite, with Shrimp Lejon. The shrimp were huge wrapped in delicious, crispy bacon with a dill horseradish sauce. This was a good start. Next we tried the Better Cheddar since they are known for that. Wow, it was cheese and smoke and figs and pear and nuts and crispy flat bread. So many fantastic flavors! I ordered the Grilled Yellowtail Special, and RJ had the NY Strip Special. Mine was so beautiful, , cooked perfectly, with asparagus and lumps of crab. RJ's steak melted in his mouth. We finished with an apple bread pudding that was absolutely incredible. Our server was friendly, fast, and efficient and we will definitely be back to enjoy more of the menu and check out their little shop next door.
