29 Best Seafood Restaurants near Delaware City

“When my company arrived from Kansas and Indiana in April, I took them to Crabby Dick's in Delaware City and they absolutely loved it! They especially enjoyed the crab cakes and Maryland Crab soup. I got my usual favorite, steamed clams! Our server's name was either Mattie or Maddie. Not sure of the spelling, but she was outstanding. We were there on April 22nd.“

“My first time at Gus's Crab Shack was back in December of 2021 when a band that i represent was hired by Gus to entertain his guests. Since that time, we have been a regular part of his entertainment lineup. What started as a spot at the back wall turned into a stage being built for all bands to play on and then with a new huge stage outside under a tent and then again, he added yet another stage outside under another tent. He started with just two bands a weekend and now has up to 5 bands a weekend. he has pulled out all stops in providing the best entertainment that he can for his patrons. As far as the food and service are concerned, we have no complaints. We always get what we ordered in a timely manner. The food is served hot, and beverages are ice cold. If we had any problem with an order, the staff makes it right very quickly. Gus, the owner makes it a habit to go around to meet his guest to see how they are doing and if everything is all right. We highly recommend Gus's Crab Shack. The staff is very courteous and friendly.“

Just writing this review is making me hungry!I do not live in DE but was in town visiting friends when I was given the chance to stop here on the way to the beach. I am looking forward to getting a chance to visit again just to get my hands on some of this mouthwatering seafood!“

“Toda la comida estaba muy rica. La verdad es que me fascinan los mariscos y nunca había encontrado un restaurante como este que los preparara tan deliciosos. También quiero destacar a la mesera Talía, que es muy buena atendiendo y muy atenta con los clientes.“

“We decided to go to dinner at Firebirds. I had been once and was not impressed; however my husband had never been there. I have to say the food was good. Cooked exactly the way we wanted. The only draw back we had is the portions of food that you receive for the price that you pay. We felt like we were robbed. We don’t over eat so when I say we had small portions, we really had small portions. The dessert was even small portions for the price that you’re required to pay. The five very thin layers of lemon cake were good but the slice was very thin for $10.25. Out bill was $76.30 for two and I would have no problem if we had an appetizer and alcoholic drinks but there was none of that because we don’t drink. We each had a soda because the lemonade was too tart. The server was very pleasant and on time with everything. We tipped her well as we should have. Not sure I can return there. A little more light would be appreciated if I did return.“

“This is my second time going to this restaurant and I’m never disappointed. The food is fresh tasty so good drinks follow along right with it waitresses very patient and very nice. I recommend going. They have nice specials every day of the week.“

“😋😋😋🤗🤗🤗🤗buenísima comida...“

“I happened upon this establishment a few weeks ago while waiting to take the long drive to EWR. I stopped in, perused the menu, and decided upon lamb chops with the non spicy house sauce, Mac n cheese, and candied yams. The food was one word…FANTASTIC! The service by the bartender (I decided to sit at the bar) was wonderful; the lady spoke to me as tho we’d known each other for years! She was very gracious. And the decor and music was so inviting, not to mention the clean bathrooms! My overall experience was amazing. And here it is, I’m back today, a Tuesday, where they’re closed😂. I pray that the staff is taking much needed time off from thier awesomeness. I’ll be back tomorrow ☺️❤️🫡“

“Good good 😋😋😋❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋“

“I’ve frequented this location due to the consistency of food quality, especially with the tenders. At the other surrounding locations, the tenders tend to be dry but at this one, no matter the time of day I’ve come they’ve always been juicy, full of meat and fresh-tasting. Please keep it up!“

“The food was really good had something for everyone if you don’t like seafood cause I had the wings and fries“
