I have great respect and appreciation for everyone at 55 the food is amazing and always delicious and I got to share my dinning experience with my friends they take great care in making sure you have a excellent meal also you should consider coming early and often and try the lemonade U think it's very tasty read more

When I first moved to Dover, I was told this was the best burger place in town and that couldn't be more true. The specials menu is ever changing so there's always a chance to try something new, but if you're not a fan of the pre-crafted items, you can build your own burger to perfection. The meat can't be compared to other places because it's SO fresh and SO unique. The fries are crispy and the bartenders offer a generous pour with the fabulous list of cocktails. I make it a point to introduce newbies to R55 every chance I get. read more

Food was ok. Service was acceptable. Ambiance was loud. Not a favorite. Could hardly talk over others. Maybe better at the bar.

Must say, pretty good burgers! Tried a few different items, soups, apps, etc as well and they have been delicious and well presented. Bartenders are always friendly and welcoming. Cocktails are well made and good selection of beers. Nice, casual atmosphere. Would definitely recommend! read more

Great burgers and delicious fries! We share a French Dip loaded with meat that was awesome too!

This place was amazing. I had the half bacon, half beef burger with mushroom and Gruyere (Swiss). Truly one of the best burgers I've ever had. My girlfriend had the sage beef burger. I tried a bite of it, a little to overwhelming for me, but was still delicious. Highly recommend. read more

Extensive burger menu! Everyone will find something. They have non beef options too. The place has appropriate decor and service is t bad at all. Sometimes it's very busy but I never seem irritated by the lack of attention. They manage things well. read more

Best burger meals around in a nice setting and ambiance.Service is good too. Black and Bleu BurgerFish Tacos

This visit was a while ago but I will tell you what I remember. The BBQ is made with love. I had the brisket (always get this in BBQ joints). AND the craft draft beer selection was great - always a draw for me. read more

A great variety of bar type foods in a family style setting. I haven't had a bad dish yet. It's worth a try if you want good food in a relaxed atmosphere. read more

We visited Restaurant 55 on a Friday evening during the dinner rush and had to wait about 20 minutes to get a table. We spent the time studying the menu and the specials and so, we're pretty much ready to order when we sat down. The staff was young and friendly but a little frenetic. We waited a while for our food to come out. My burger was tasty but overcooked. The fries were good and.we stayed to share a carrot cupcake for dessert. I'm normally fussy about carrot cake but this was really very good. The place was a little loud but prices were pretty reasonable. I'd just say pack your patience on Friday night. Start-to-finish, dinner took about 90 minutes, with the wait to be seated and the seemingly overwhelmed kitchen. Still, I think we'd go back. They advertise their craft beers but I wasn't that impressed with their list of drafts. Also, their burger choices, while extensive, include a number of odd concoctions like beef and corned beef mixed. read more

We were in the area and looking for a place to eat so as usual, we checked Yelp. When we entered 55 we thought it was a really cute place. It was a Saturday night so we had a rather long wait ( over 35 minutes) and there wasn't much seating for those who wait and the small bar was already mobbed .If i had a suggestion it would be to add a bigger waiting area. Other than that it was a really cute, comfortable place to dine. After 30 minutes of waiting I decided to try a local microbrew so I headed to the bar where I was immediately waited on by a really personable bartender. He took the time to explain to me how the beer they had from 16 Mile Brewery out of Georgetown tasted and he offered me a sample. I was sold! To me he was engaging and that is great customer service. Our server for dinner was equally personable. Menu: - Bronto Burger which my honey loved. It contained 50% more freshly ground-chuck than standard burger. - Fried chicken platter which was 3 legs fried with a very tasty bbq rub. It was tender and juicy. Not in the area much but if we are we will stop back. read more

This was an amazing lunch. My friend says," I'll take you anywhere you want to eat". Never eating at Restaurant 55 , and being close to Dover , this was my pick. Started with an appetizer of the " pimento cheese ", or some may say, southern pate , served with crackers . This is my favorite low country food , when I go to Charleston, and it was just as good as "The Holy City. " This gooey deliciousness was pungent, and definitely homemade . I didn't need the crackers, I could have eaten the pimento cheese by the spoonful. The French fries that come with the burgers are just like you find at the beach, on the boardwalk, including the malt vinegar. We split the vegetarian Portobello burger and Santa Fe burger . Both were good burgers , however, the Santa Fe was slightly better , perhaps a personal preference, but much prefer sautéed spinach, on a Portobello burger. We probably wouldn't have ordered had we known the spinach wasn't cooked. The Santa Fe had an amazing explosion of taste ...juicy , sweet, tangy, and crispy all at the same time. The homemade root beer BBQ sauce , onion confetti, bacon ,and cheddar cheese, on the Santa Fe , was so- so yummy. They have some interesting choices of burgers like the " Willie Nelson" or " Elvis." You will be entirely to full to order dessert, but curiosity had me when I heard cupcakes, most especially carrot cake, so I had to order a cupcake to go. The carrot cake cupcake was crazy good, insanely moist , delicately spiced and delicious. They offer two other cupcakes but I tuned them out and only focused on the carrot cake choice. Karen, the bartender , is a lovely host and extremely informative. I enjoyed RAR'S "house phone" smelling of grapefruit and tropical fruit, a lot of punch for low ABV 5% , Loads of craft beer on tap and bottles. This new year is starting out to be a happy one. read more

My favorite place for craft beers and unique burgers. Great staff, service and atmosphere

Everything was cooked wrong, we asked for just the app to be taken off that we didn't eat and we got attitude from the manager. Will not be coming back read more

Best food in town. Wonderful family run restaurant. Very clean and well appointed. Service is very professional and quite friendly. Great selection of draught beers on tap and a nicely stocked bar. The restaurant will surprise you based on the location and plain looks on the outside. The menu offers a long list of exquisitely described gourmet burgers, sandwiches, appetizers and other accompaniments. I ate one of the many specials, that was elegantly described by my server. It was a turkey panini that included spinach and avocado and tomato. It was very fresh, tasty and made to perfection. The panini came with fresh cut fries that were also awesome and hard to stop munching on. Overall, a lovely dinning experience. I can't wait to come back! read more

Restaurant 55 - American Near Me - Dover, Delaware

Food was great and the service was pretty ok. I'm looking forward to going back at some point.

I didn't know what to expect when I pulled up. The location is not what you would expected a restaurant of this caliber to be at. The service was prompt and friendly. It took a minute to decide what I wanted since there were many good choices offered. I decided on a sandwich and side. The hand cut fries were well cooked and seasoned and the sandwich was worth every penny. From the roll to the filling everything was fresh and well flavored and a great serving. They do offer a large beer and wine list if you are eating in. read more

Nice little local place. All the staff were really friendly and the food was good. We didn't have reservations but we only had to wait a few minutes when we thought it was going to be about 20 minutes. I'll come back when I'm in town again visiting family. read more

Restaurant 55 - Club Burger - American Near Me - Dover, Delaware

It's better than most hamburger restaurants. Burgers are creative. Fries are so so. You would think a restaurant of this type would offer a whole lot more healthier alternatives to red meat burgers. Where is the commitment to the public to offer food that's healthier? read more

The atmosphere is cool and the server I had most recently has been from restaurant to restaurant as they have closed down since Covid. Great to see a familiar place. It is the place to go if you want a quality restaurant burger. The beer selection is extensive. I always forget that this place is one of my favorites. read more

My husband had a 55 burger, our daughter had fish and chips. I ordered the pulled pork that was dead before I got it. Very dry and tasted like saw dust. They changed it out for a French dip sandwich which was extremely dry too and tasteless. Au jus sauce was tasteless. My daughters fish was dry and when she tried to complain about it the manager got nasty and told her end pieces will be dry. It was the actual whole fish not the ends we were upset about and she wouldn't take it off our bill. Husbands sandwich wasn't much better. Will not recommend this place. Wish I could rate it a zero. Waitress was friendly. read more

Great burger selection. Really love the Philly burger. Great friendly service also large beer selection on tap and bottles.

Burgers are always on point and the service has always been great too. Love the unique appetizer options too!

Excellent food, Excellent service!! Great atmosphere! Best selection of beer!! They are a local family owned restaurant.

My wife and I visited your establishment on 3/19/2024. We were met with very poor "SERVICE". We sat down and waited to be served. However, when the waitress came, we were met with her back. As she turned to the table opposite us and waited on them First and e weren there a good TEN minutes before them. So we politely GOT UP AND LEFT THE ESTABLISHMENT. Vowing never to return. We are AFRICAN Americans and of course the family of 4 were white. It was our fault because we were the only African American Americans In the establishment at that time. NEVER AGAIN. I suppose the White persuasion is where the ratings come from because THIS ESTABLISHMENT DOESN'T EVEN RATE A ONE STAR. read more

Good restaurant with good food but it is loud ! The wait staff is young and helpful. It's just a shame you can't go there to chat.

Great little place. Burgers were awesome. Our waiter Chris. Was awesome too a must try in Delaware read more

Went there today for my birthday and our service was great, had a burger cooked perfect and the onion rings were ginormous. The restaurant had a modern dinner feel, very nice. read more

Amazing food and service. Do yourself a favor and give it a shot. I had a burger and my wife had the same and some beer. I was told to come here for both and I was not disappointed. read more

Best French fries ever eaten! However, service speed was horrendous - never got drink refills. Fried pickles consists of 4 pickle spears which were soggy and not crunchy - cheeseburger soup was ok, something different. Not a must stop while driving through Dover, select another place on Yelp. read more

I really love the burgers here. I had the lunch counter burger w sweet potato fries. Delish !!! Hubby had the bronto burger, his was a little bland. We ordered the anchovy fries. They were good but I ll try a different appetizer next time. Maddie our bartender made yummy Tito's and sweet teas. She also had us sample her chocolate martini yummy!! The hostess was a snobby b with no good reason if you know whet I'm saying but we didn't have to deal with her except for to seconds. She probably won't last because of her charming personality. Shocker lol. I'm afraid to try anything here besides a burger because they are that great ! read more

Very very popular, hamburgers are the thing anyway you could imagine them! But service was not consistent - I know all the restaurants are having staffing issues - but we were always trying to flag down the server and it took so long and it took away from the quality of the food which was excellent. I'd go back, but I'd hope for better service - our waiter was stretched too thin I think. I have to note I loved my meal took half of it home. read more

Always a favorite. We enjoy the food and the good service. The daily specials menu makes it difficult to choose.

Great place for burgers and more. Their salmon burger is a whole piece of salmon - yum! Their chick pea burger is made from scratch and is excellent! My daughter said "it was the best Veggie Burger she has ever had. We will definitely be back. read more

Amazing burgers, beers, and sports, nuff said. Owned by the same family as the equally awesome but more upscale Cool Springs.

It is no exaggeration to say that Restaurant 55 serves the best burgers in Dover. I've been here 5 times now and every time I get the "Willie Nelson" burger, a high quality beef burger topped with bbq sauce, jalapeño relish, and cheese. I'm sure the rest of the menu is great but I like the Willie Nelson too much to try anything else! Restaurant 55 is a popular spot, so if you get there after 5 it is going to be packed. This isn't a problem since they are really good at keeping things moving, however it is VERY loud when the venue gets busy. I'd say the noise level during peak times is the only drawback to this restaurant. Don't plan on having any significant conversations with the rest of your party, the best bet is to enjoy the fantastic food and then head somewhere else if you want to talk. read more
