The Red Sea Cosmo is a fun, eye-catching drink topped with a massive bubble! You get an amazing taste of raspberry Chambord flavor right away. Super refreshing and very good! Next was the Phyllo Feta, LOVED the contrast between the warm, salty feta cheese and the crispy, paper-thin phyllo dough. Simple, classic, and delish! Also enjoyed the White Wine Mussels. The broth was packed with garlic and a nice kick of chili flakes. Dipping the crispy sourdough into that rich sauce was easily the best part! The Arugula Mist was really light and refreshing. The peppery arugla flavor paired perfectly with my meal that followed. A really great way to balance out richer dishes! Also tried the Beef Burgundy. It was incredibly tender and slow-cooked to perfection in a rich, savory wine sauce. A comforting, deeply flavorful highlight of the night! Service was top notch! Servers were knowledgeable and highly attentive. Ended the night with the Mediterranean Sunset. It was absolutely beautiful and really good! Looking forward to definitely returning with my appetite!

I can't speak about the kitchen as far as what's brought to us, but when I order some thing with, for example, jalapeños, and no jalapeños arrive, is that a Service thing or a kitchen thing that remains to be not?. It's a beautiful location and the evening bartenders. I don't know. Their names are amazing. But you come early. It's hidden mess. They're too busy interacting with each other and I said there with an empty drink while they're having a conversation.

I generally don't give 4/5's, and I was reluctant after I sat at the bar for a good 10 minutes and…read morenone of the bartenders paid me any attention. (I actually thought about walking out). Instead, I allowed patience to prevail....I ordered their wings. They looked different than your average wings, so I figured give it a try. They were/are absolutely heavenly. Not sure what they do with them. They don't seem fried, but they are HUGE, succulent, and served with a big pepper and onions, two of my best friends. The wings came out hot, and they were so plentiful, I had to box my order because I was full. (Okay, I filled up on beer. Shoot me. I love beer, and their tap prices are so low compared to NYC). I also ordered fries, and I'll be damn, they were great as well. 4/5 experience. There was a male bartender who was clearly caught up in himself and I could tell he felt like I was competition and he completely ignored me. Cool. No problem. I was able to gain help from a really nice female bartender who waited on me despite dude's responsibility at my section of the bar. I'll definitely come back when traveling through Delaware. Sorry that Nordstrom is now closed. But, this spot is super solid. They have plenty of monitors. My only issue is that I walked in on a sunny July day at 6:00PM and the inside is so dark, it took about 15 minutes for my eyes to adjust. Cool spot. I'd bring a casual date or partner while passing through on I-95. Now that Nordstrom is closed, I have a good reason to stop by. The bang for the buck is amazing in today's age.

There is a bar area with some booths, as well as a large dining space. If want happy hour you have to sit at the actual bar though. We were greeted by super friendly and very nice hostess. We were seated immediately. Our server (shout it to Chloe) was also friendly and checked in on us throughout our visit. A manager of some sort even swung by to ask how things were going. If you have picky eaters or a large group with varies diets... this is the place to come. The menu is a book! Like it's robust. There are starters, burgers, pizzas, sushi, sandwiches... like it's never ending. When you see a book of a menu you wonder how the quality is going to be since it would be assumed that the kitchen has a massive amount of food that must be made on demand. We were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food that we had. Well done! Don't be intimidated by the menu. We ordered the potstickers which were tasty and delicious. They do have a little bit of a kick to them. Also ordered the special chicken biscuit sliders served with a side of white gravy. Get these!!! They were absolutely delicious. Highly recommend. Also ordered a BBQ burger with sweet potato fries. The fries come with an icing like filling sauce. Burger was great and fresh. Overall, a great meal and would come back.

We had to wave down the chef in the kitchen and she was able to alert someone that we were there! Happy that we stayed because the peek in the kitchen we were able to see fresh bread being made and food being prepared that I wanted to eat! After this experience in the beginning, it was all uphill from there from the service of our waitress the big booth seats to the food experience. The only thing we did not enjoy was the French onion soup, which was kind of flavorless, but we took it to go, and I will definitely doctor it up and eat it later for sure. Go here!

The ambiance has a beautiful old-school Italian feel with a modern touch, and the noise level was perfect--lively enough to have atmosphere but quiet enough to enjoy a conversation. The wine list was moderately priced with a nice selection. We started with the bread, which was delicious, followed by fresh Blue Point oysters and the burrata appetizer, which was also very good. A special mention to Christine in management--she was exceptional and really elevated the overall experience. Great food, thoughtful service, and a warm, polished atmosphere. Definitely a place I'd return to.

The food was very good, I had the caesar salad, chicken parm, and molten lava cake. I wish I could rate this restaurant higher, unfortunately the service was not up to par. Unknown to my knowledge it was UD parents weekend so there were many families with their college students at the restaurant. I felt as though I was being overlooked since I was with a friend and not a parent with their college student. My server would rush in and out at my table, but at other tables would stay and talk longer. The server also mentioned that there was a limited menu as it was UD's parents weekend. I felt as though this information should have been on the website, because I would have chosen another restaurant for this weekend.

The appetizers were great, my only negative note is I wish the soup was hotter esp with it being a bisque. There were nice chunks of lobster in it though, the salad was well dressed and refreshing and the fried goat cheese was piping hot and served with a marmalade which was delicious. For mains, I ordered the pancetta wrapped cod and Star got the gnocchi. The gnocchi was delicious and pillowy, the tomato confit was quite salty on its own. My cod was well cooked and very flaky, I wish the pancetta was crispy. It seems like the pancetta was just wrapped around after the fish was cooked which I found odd. The ratatouille underneath was well seasoned and delicious. Our server was super sweet and attentive, the service was great.

He had to sit and wait through our entire lunch while we ate, only for the corrected order to still be wrong when it finally came out. When we brought this up to management, there was no apology or accountability. Instead, we were told it was basically our fault for "ordering the wrong food." On top of that, their card machine was down, which added another 20 minutes to an already frustrating visit. I understand equipment issues happen and are not entirely their fault, but the way we were treated afterward was unacceptable. This isn't the first time the food here has been mediocre. Unless you're desperate for sushi, I would skip this place. The customer service alone is enough reason to go elsewhere.
