Small Pacer (extra pepperoni,  extra cheese)
Patrick P.

I stopped in and tried the pizza and got a to-go pie and some chicken Alfredo. This is a cool bar/restaurant. The staff were awesome. Pizza - Small Pacer and a large Buckeye pizza (to-go). Pacer was cheesy by design. It had great flavor. M Buckeye pizza - it was good but not my speed. The topping coverage was not like the Pacer (I should have taken a picture). Chicken Alfredo was a hit in the house. Everyone loved it. I am going to go back when I am in the area just to see if it was a one-off on the pies because of the ratings. This is a cool place, and please give it a shot as I am not a food critic but providing my experience to my individual tastes.

Shorty's used to be my favorite pizza place around Delaware, we would order from there almost every Friday night. Haven't ordered from them as often lately as the food quality at the Delaware location seems to be going down hill. Decided to try again this past Friday and it will probably be the last time. Ordered a 12 inch mushroom and sausage pizza and 6 of their wings, which I had never had before. First the pizza, of the 12 inch diameter pizza, the cheese and toppings covered about 8 inches, which basically means I paid 18 bucks for an 8 inch pizza, pictures attached. Don't get me wrong, if you are a big fan of dough, crust, and tomato sauce, this is the pizza for you. I, on the other hand, prefer my pizza with toppings that actually cover the whole pie. As for the wings, I guess you better be a fan of drumettes because that is apparently all they have. Ordered 6 wings and got 6 drummettes, picture attached. I, unfortunately, enjoy the wingettes more than the drummettes. I would rate the taste of the wings a 4 out of 10. I ate two of them and threw the rest away. I don't know if they are cutting back on the amount of toppings and skimping on quality to help fund their two new locations, but this is definitely not the Shorty's I started out with. Btw, the last picture posted is taken directly from the Shorty's website. I assume this is what my pizza was supposed to look like, I just wish it did.

The pacer with extra sauce, fantastic!!

This restaurant might as well be a time machine. You walk in and there are no tables just a bar…read morethat outlines the center of the restaurant where you simply find the best seat possible and grab a menu. The specials are wrote on a board and the service is great. One of the coolest places you can go to. Environment is full of energy because of the way the restaurant is set up and the food is exceptional. Personally one of the best Rubens I've had in a long time.

After the Delaware Farmer's Market, my wife and I wanted to rewind time at this old school diner…read more Leave it to us to go to a place called Hamburger Inn and not get a hamburger. And I think that might have been our downfall. We went the breakfast route and started with a Cinnamon roll made right on the griddle. It created this crispy char that gave the roll more of a funnel cake texture. Unique,and the icing definitely enhances it (as it does most cinnamon rolls). Their special breakfast sandwich, "The Morning Wake-up" touts a "2x the size English Muffin" and they were not lying. This sandwich had cheese, multiple meats and vegetables, and I needed to take half of it home due to sheer size. What it didn't have... sauce. What it needed... sauce, syrup, aioli or something to lubricate all of those toppings. The breakfast potatoes on the side needed salt/seasoning/sauce, too, to be more to my liking. It was a similar experience with my wife's Reuben and the fries that she ordered; the sandwich had its moments, but it made me wish one of us got a burger like most of the other patrons.

Couldn't have gone any better. I was very impressed with the burgers, they were well-cooked and…read moreperfectly put-together. Instead of put together sloppily like a fast-food place would have, Smash Shack Burgers spent time stacking their burgers and making them look just as amazing as they taste. I had a side of mac & cheese, which was delicious as well. The staff were extremely kind and very patient. We were greeted by a staff member immediately and had the menu explained to us. Everything in the building was very clean and organized, I saw no spills or dirty tables at all. There is only one 2-seat table inside along with some benches lining the sides. This is very understandable due to the limited space. However, there are a few picnic tables outside that were also extremely clean and tidy. Would definitely come back!

I ordered mac and cheese with an Angus coney. What I received was mac and cheese completely covered…read morein coney sauce. I checked the menu several times, and "coney sauce" was never listed as part of the dish. When I tried to address the issue, the customer service was very disappointing. The manager apparently didn't feel the situation was important enough to address, and the employee at the counter seemed annoyed that I even brought it up. I wasn't asking for a refund -- I simply wanted what I actually ordered. Instead, I left feeling ignored and unheard. Customer service and communication matter just as much as the food.
