Every bite and sip of cocktails and wine was simply delicious!“

Our waiter immediately came and took our drink order as we reviewed the menu. He delivered our drinks quickly and then took or order. Everything we ordered was on point, flavorful and seasoned appropriately. Oysters Rockefeller was great! The deviled eggs looked like they came out of a magazine, whipped and filled high!

“Friendly staff, great food and desserts“

“We were genuinely delighted by our visit to this hidden gem in Lewes. Arriving during happy hour, we were pleased to see such a wide selection of offerings. Our group sampled the fish tacos, Caesar salads, and shrimp starters - all served in generous portions and tasting wonderfully fresh. I went for the burger, which was a bit on the messy side but packed with flavor, topped with coleslaw and a tangy barbecue sauce. The staff were friendly and went out of their way to accommodate us. With reasonable prices and great service, it's hard to go wrong here.“

“The drinks and service are excellent Karl was excellent and friendly“

“Salads were good. Waitress was great, hostess was nasty. Shrimp was just okay, but the lobster roll turned me off of lobster rolls for a while. Had a fishier taste than fish! Tasted nothing like lobster, and served with that nasty warm oil, not butter.“

“We will return. Our server was wonderful.“

“We love this restaurant. The food has been upgraded and the service is friendly and accommodating. My husband & I have a group of Happy Hour friends that we frequent Seaside almost every Friday. Going tonight for Date Night.“

“Cedar Land & Sea Kitchen is the best kept secret in the Eastern Shore. The bar is also fantastic.“

“Monday night is girls night for our group of friends We’re regulars. We always sit in the bar. Just want to give BIG shout out to James, our bartender. He is so pleasant, attentive, and just one heck of a guy! Wanted to make sure he got his due recognition!“

“In my opinion it's a little pricey for a food truck food. $20.95 for a lobster roll that is on a piece of bread that is about (not exceed) 6 inches short. Food tastes ok though.“

“5 Stars great drinks if you want the best“

“Flavors, textures, cooking technique better than a 5 Star restaurant. Everything on the menu is Amazing. Their homemade sauces are like nothing I have ever tasted before and I am quite the Foodie! My favorite is the Thai Chili Shrimp Taco, I can't order tacos from anywhere else. They truly have spoiled me. The owners are wonderful people and talented chefs! 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!!!“

“We also enjoy our meals and our service is always great. Never a bad meal. Highly recommend!“

“The calamari was the best I’ve had, the portion was huge and could have been a main course. The outside dining was awesome and the service was outstanding. Very accommodating to my wife’s garlic allergy. Would recommend this place to everyone. Thank you“

“Last Friday, my wife and I went to the paradise pub for dinner. I have to say, the service was extremely outstanding. Every time one of the waitresses that past our table , asked if we needed something or if everything was OK. They were all extremely attentive, especially one of the managers Kristen, I believe. I think Paradise pub should be extremely proud of the staff. The food was delicious. My wife loved her cheesesteak, and I enjoyed the flounder pounder, immensely. I highly recommend this place for its fun atmosphere.“

“Portion size was great, turkey was very good. Ham was very dry and really salty🥹 Stuffing was was kinda too wet.🥺 And string beans were undercooked😢 3 years ago it was all delicious. We were disappointed, I would rate the meal a 3/5. The workers seemed unhappy to be there, and were much more festive and excited the past 2 years.“

“Delish loved the servers and bartenders great food“

“Amazing dinner and best Manhattan ever!! Great service and we definitely recommend for a very special night out.“

“Delicious, filling, fresh, good ingredients, fair price.“

“Been here 16 years and since our family loves Chinese Food, we have tried every place in Southern Delaware. Panda is hands-down the best. The food is great, it is fresh, and the staff is very friendly.“

“My husband originally ordered the Chicken Barrio Bowl and I went with the Chicken La Playa Bowl. The waiter later came back to let us know they only had enough rice for one bowl, so I switched my order to the Blackened Fish Tacos. After we’d all finally placed our orders, the waiter returned again to explain that there was officially no more rice at all since another table had ordered it, so my husband had to change his order as well. He went with the Tequila Lime Chicken BLT instead.

He also tried to order a Guinness, but unfortunately, they didn’t have that available either.

That being said, the food we did receive was delicious, the atmosphere was wonderful, and the service was excellent. Our waiter was super friendly and handled everything with grace—it definitely wasn’t his fault they were out of certain items. We still had a great time and look forward to coming back to finally try the bowls next time!

*Note we ate dinner in September off - season on a Monday.“

“PET FRIENDLY establishment! Had an amazing dinner with our whole fur family. They served our dogs water and grilled chicken. We had the Salmon BLT, scallops, and a burger. Everyone was very happy. Best dog friendly dining experience of my life.“

“Greeted by the manager, Mike and quickly served. didn't have to wait for long to get.the BEST watermelon crush! ($9!!) Fresh pureed watermelon and not short on vodka! The tuna nachos were FULL of fresh tuna. We also enjoyed the chefs special curry salmon and shrimp over linguine. Carley Twigg was playing guitar on the patio. 10/10 evening!“

“I come into town 1-2x a year. When I’m in town, I am always ordering from here. Food is always good and consistent. We always make sure we get the staples: Lo mein, fried rice, hot & sour soup, veggies with tofu, and beef & broccoli. Price is great. Portions are generous. Nice there is an online order option now. Happy returning customer. Highly recommend.“

“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“
