New American Restaurants near Dewey Beach, DE

“I have a severe peanut/tree nut allergy and our server, Nicole, immediately went and checked with the kitchen. She even brought me back labels to read which made me feel so comfortable eating there. She truly went above and beyond! Beautiful view, great service, and the food is very good. We will definitely be back when we visit Dewey again! 😊“

“I had the wonderful experience to work with the staff there yesterday, to set up a wedding. Let me say first, what a beautiful place and great set up! The Staff are wonderful from Brooke to every last member of the team ! Hardworking, polite, fun andcery good at what they do !! Great place for any occasion!“

“Disappointed our flatbread was not hot and the cheese wasn’t as Ben all the way melted. We had one in the past that was great. The cauliflower appetizer has also changed. The florets. Are huge and the old ones used to be much smaller and easier to eat. Atmosphere is beautiful. Meal was good but disappointed in these two things“

“Always have a wonderful time and exquisite food. Meghan and her team are top notch. Highly recommend!“

“Husband and I had a wonderful dinner celebrating our birthdays at Shorebreak Lodge Restaurant this weekend. The restaurant decor is sophisticated and the seating is super comfortable. The owners Ben and Diane go over and above to make sure that you are comfortable and happy. Their craft cocktails are the best! Always wanted to try octopus and this dish did not disappoint. Everything from appetizers to dinner was so delicious. Everyone we have recommended the restaurant to has gone there for dinner and they always tell us how great their experience was. We believe this restaurant to be one of the best restaurants in Sussex County Delaware. We highly recommend.“

“We absolutely love lewes oyster house! It’s always one of our first picks down at the beach. The constantly fresh and changing chef specialties keep us on our toes with new options all the time! We’ve never had a bad meal! We always request Chelsea as our server as she’s such a bright and bubbly face who has wonderful menu suggestions! Very attentive and makes it a wonderful experience!“

“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.“

“This was delicious! Would come back here in a heartbeat. I’d share a picture of the food, but it’s gone. We had a party of 14 and Aly killed it. Was extremely attentive and very friendly. Drinks were great, and atmosphere was fun!! 10/10 recommend! Ask for Aly!!“

“A friend and I enjoyed an absolutely phenomenal meal tonight - thank you so much!! The service from everyone was impeccable from the moment we walked in sans resy and you somehow conjured us a table on the patio; your food (from the bread and fritters to appetizers to mains) was absolutely top-notch, and the atmosphere was perfect. Our server, Bengi, took the time to answer our questions about “Just what is in that incredible dressing?!” (Cherry vinegar) and “what is this yellow strip of crunchy deliciousness I’m currently enjoying?” (pickled fennel). Also, I don’t know what you put in the glorious house-made chocolates, but I do know that I could eat them every day for the rest of my life. Thank you again!!“

“Fantastic food and service! So relaxing, and we will be back. ❤️ 5/5 stars!“

“Unbelievable food I look forward every weekend in the summer going to smokin D’s. It’s family owned and operated, and they are the nicest people you will ever meet. They are on a first name basis with practically all their customers. Highly recommended.“

“I had the grilled salmon tonight and it was excellent!! Served over a mix of pearl pasta, cheese, mushrooms and leeks. Couldn’t have asked for a tastier meal. Will go back again soon. Service and atmosphere was very good as well.“

“Great food & nice ladies“

“There’s no sub like it in Sussex County Delaware. We got an Italian with prosciutto, it was packed full,fresh and delicious. And the rolls are out of this world. Five star.“

“Your grill cheese sandwich is out of this world, perhaps adding tomato soup to the menu would put this lunch time favorite over the top! Love your place!“
