My wife loves their filet and crab ravioli. The risotto stuffed eggplant is the best vegan dish in the area and I really enjoy the pepper cured loin of tuna.

“We had a very delicious meal at this warm, cozy place last night, which is in a beautiful historic home in downtown Lewes.

We were early for our reservation, so we went in the back to the Pink Pony bar area for a drink. Husband and I had very good wine, daughter had a limoncello lemon drop, which she loved. The bartenders were so friendly and fun!

For dinner, we were seated in the enclosed wrap around front porch area, with views of the town that was beautifully decorated for the holidays. Our waiter, Filip, was outstanding. He helped us make good menu choices, according to our tastes, and provided excellent service throughout our meal.

We started with the charcuterie board, which we enjoyed sharing. Husband and I chose the Chicken Cordon Bleu. It was fabulous, with caramelized roasted carrots, crisp tender green beans, all on a bed of pomme purée. Daughter chose a delicious pumpkin ravioli, which was leaving the menu the next day. She greatly enjoyed it.

We will definitely be back to this restaurant.

Highly recommend.“

I purposely drive to Rehoboth to do my grocery shopping so I can order dinner once a week from First State!!! It is a must Go-To!!!“

“Hung out with my family there and the vibe and drinks were great!“

“I saw a review on crypto investment that changed my story for good. I never believed it at first but after much convincing by my account manager in the person of Mrs Craig Vanessa I decided to give it a trial with just $5,000 even though there was a lower cost of investment. Starting with this, I made a profit of $35,500 in the first week. I am sharing this here for those that may have an interest. Mrs Craig Vanessa is genuine and her style of trade is unique. Completely top-notch and different from the rest. Contact her today and you will not regret it. Send her a DM on WhatsApp via the number on her Facebook: Mrs Craig Vanessa“
