    Margarita Mimosa
    Lisa S.

    This is a hidden gem for breakfast and brunch in a convenient location in Wilmington, DE. We traveled from Philadelphia to get a yummy breakfast and we were not disappointed. Fresh, flavorful food and the inside of Urban Kitchen was pleasing to the eye pallet! Highly recommended and yes we will be back!!!

    Mimosa

    This food was sooo good. Place was packed. If you're looking for some good home cooked style breakfast. This is it. The presentation was nice. Service was fast and the staff all very kind. The potatoes were delicious as well. Definitely recommend. More locations are definitely needed. Or at least a bigger one. It's slightly cramped inside but doesn't take away from the experience or the taste of the food. The mimosa I had was great too!

    After starting the day off right with a workout and before heading back home to Philly, we knew we had to get something to eat. I'd looked possible brunch places, saw this one and, based on the menu and reviews, suggested we check this place out. So glad we did! When we got there, it was definitely busy and we were nervous it would be a super long wait. But thankfully they told us it would be maybe 15 minutes and I feel like it was less time than that. Staff were all friendly and we really liked our waiter - shout-out to Dre. He had good energy, helpful suggestions on menu choices, was great at checking in at the right times, and both felt he did a really get job serving and engaging us throughout brunch. Based off his recommendations when I asked about drinks, I got the Sunrise Mimosa and my boyfriend got the Rum Punch Mimosa. Both were amazing! They definitely tasted like a great balance of a mimosa and the cocktail within its name. And the second round of those drinks we ordered somehow tasted better to us. Not the food, absolutely delicious! I got the Crab Benedict (at recommendation of our waiter), he got the Make Your Own Omelette and we shared a side of grits. Everything was served at the perfect temperature, great flavor and well seasoned (especially the potatoes)... We had no complaints. Recommend anyone looking for brunch in New Castle or Wilmington to come here as fast as possible! I hope to go back again to try more menu items.

    I dined at Urban Kitchen while paying a visit to my aunt in Delaware. Despite the restaurant being fairly busy we were greeted immediately and seated fairly quickly. The staff were very nice and welcoming. I ordered pancakes with bacon, eggs and a side of grits. The food was well prepared and delicious. No complaints at all.

    French toast and Reuben

    Very busy and legit brunch place. The wait was 45 min on a Sunday morning. They have a pretty well-rounded menu, essentially with most of the breakfast/brunch items that one could think of. Their brunch alcohol menu seems interesting, too. We had the French toast and the Reuben sandwich. They were both tasty. The portion sizes were huge. The ambience was a lot of hustle bustle, like most brunch places on a Sunday morning. Their food is rather dense and carb/meat heavy, so for us, it might be a once every three months endeavor.

    Crab cake Benedict so good!!! Home fries are perfect!!

    Food was good, service was great food came out quickly, definitely it will always be great for breakfast, great to know this is the NEW Hollywood Diner! Clean and bright always feel welcome!!

    Sausage Gravy

    Came here for breakfast before hopping on the road to come back home; and I am GLAD we did! So they do NOT take reservations, so if you want breakfast, come here early. It is so cute inside! Everyone was so nice and we were seated immediately. Also, our server was so sweet!!! What we ordered: * Side of bacon and scrapple - Bacon is always a hit, and the scrapple! It's my favorite breakfast meat, and whoever cooked it, cooked it right. * Big breakfast (strawberry French toast, eggs, sausage and home fries) - French toast with as love, home fries were seasoned to perfection and sausage was good too * Side of sausage gravy and 2 biscuits - huge chunks of sausage in it, thick and creamy; just needs a little pepper and it was top tier. Plus, the biscuit was just as fresh. * Waffle with sausage - the little one cleaned his plate, so I can say he loved it * Crabcake Benedict with grits - SOOOOOOO GOOD!!!! And the crab cakes were such a nice size!!! The grits were good as well! * Strawberry fizz mimosa - delicious All I know is, I'm coming back! lol

    Really cute place but left very conflicted in terms of reviews…read more Made reservations because it was Wilmington restaurant week but we were the only people in there for a while. Started at a table and then learned there were happy hour specials only at the bar. They refused to give us HH pricing at our table even though we were the only people in there so we relocated to the bar. The bartender seemed skilled and looked like he was making an incredible cocktail. Both cocktails were absolutely terrible and tasted like perfume. Extreme let down. The meal had highlights like the shrimp and grits and steak, everything else was flavorless and not worth the money. It's a beautiful place and had live music but I don't think there's anything that would make me come back.

The seats are comfy, with backs, and there's a place to rest your feet. They have a few TVs, so you can watch sports too. The friendly bartender greeted us with menus and asked if we needed a minute before ordering drinks, and we did, because they have a nice, interesting, creative cocktail list. I had the Grill Your Fruit Honey, a whiskey drink, and it was delectable, but I was very tempted by the Does a Pear Spritz in the Woods? It was Saturday brunch time, so we got one item from their Brunchy menu and one from their main menu. We picked the Famous Post Breakfast Sandwhich with smoked chicken. The server recommended a runny egg, and it was perfect. I had my eye on the BLT, so we went with it. It was so good!! The bacon was thick, crispy, and so flavorful. The bread was perfectly toasted. We had a hard time picking a fav sandwhich, but I think the BLT won. We ordered a side of their cheesy grits, and they were award-winning, and I'm from the south, so I know grits.

Happy hour means $6 well drinks, so my standard is rum and diet Coke. Good drink, single pour of Cruzan. I chose to dine at the bar because the weather was a little steamy out. But I later took my second drink out onto their riverfront patio, and sat awhile in the shade of the building. It was lovely. For snacks, I ordered the blackened filet medallions and the garlic mussels. On a skewer, four hefty pieces of excellent beef were joined with a nifty horseradish dip. I did cut the steak into several bites per piece, so it was a good sized portion. My only preference would have been some garnish (greens maybe?). The mussels normally come with bread, but I let them keep it in the kitchen to sub my own GF bread from home. The broth was thin and lightly flavored, which I enjoyed almost like a soup (but was too embarrassed to tip the bowl). The patron to my right bemoaned the loss of a thicker broth from a previous recipe, so the bartender brought him some scampi butter which helped apparently. I really loved the light broth and found it soaked into the bread quite nicely. Friendly bartender gal cashed me out at my request before I took my drink on the patio. $30 plus tip, well spent. I could be a regular here, and look forward to another visit to Wilmington next time we are in Philly.

I heard of this place before but hadn't been and luckily they were still open that late so we headed over there. It was a Friday night, so the place was pretty full, with music playing throughout with some people our aged mixed on the college students there. We lucked out with two seats at the bar. For drinks, I initially ordered the Blue Rock Lemonade - in my mind I thought it would taste or be similar to lemonade cocktail drink I've had before... It was not that lol. Though I normally do like drinks on the sweeter side, this one was too much for me. But it may appeal to others taste. I ended up just asking for the same thing my boyfriend got which was a Margarita (I think pineapple flavor) which was much more satisfying. Again, we both were hungry and didn't feel like sharing apps or being there too late since we had to get up early. The Seafood Linguine caught my eye, so I ordered that while he got the Fish 'N Chips. There's was different in that they used catfish - we are used to seeing cod or haddock - but it came out pretty good. My dish was also pretty good, with a good mixture of seafood (shrimp, crab meat, mussels, clams) in it. We would come here again - earlier time though - to check out other items on the menu.

Since I showed up around 4pm, the restaurant was pretty empty - it wasn't lunch time but it wasn't dinner time yet. I took a seat at the bar and ordered a glass of wine, their bistro salad (chopped greens, cucumbers, vine-ripened tomatoes, feta, red onion, and red wine vinaigrette), and agnolotti (ricotta and herb-filled agnolotti, crispy pancetta, English peas, and Parmigiano-Reggiano). The wine was nice, and the food was quite good overall. The salad was simple, and the pasta was good, too. AJ at the bar was great - he was new (he was still learning the cocktail menu), but he was friendly and helpful. When I walked in, AJ was a little swamped at the bar (since the only people at Eclipse were at the bar), but there wasn't anyone at the host stand, nor did other staff standing near the kitchen say anything or tell me where I could sit. I was more than happy to sit at the bar - as a solo diner at an off-hour, it seemed like the easiest thing to do - but I wasn't sure if I could just grab a barstool and sit down or not. Since no one said anything, eventually I did just that, which was only a bit awkward (and I do get that I walked in between lunch and dinner service). Overall, it was a nice meal - nothing mind-blowing, but I do like their menu, and I enjoyed the food and my glass of wine. I wouldn't mind returning to try more of their menu on another occasion when I'm in Wilmington.
