“I met up with a friend here on a Sunday afternoon. I never had mead before so we both were very interested in experiencing a new taste. First, the place has a very cool and interesting mix of antiques and vintage decorations. There is a cabinet with all kinds of bottles, collectables about Wilmington, DE brewing history....which I loved! Great atmosphere. All the staff was very helpful and friendly. We did a flight of mead drinks which were very interesting to taste and experience. We wound up enjoying the cider that they brew. Im not a big cider guy guy but, it had a great burst of flavor and was delicious. Deep Routed cider was our favorite. They had a food truck there as well. We just had drinks but, it looked like a hip food truck.Overall I would definitely recommend trying this place. The drinks were very refreshing and super tasty. The owner was on site and very informative. He is definitely passionate about his mead and cider production. It shows when you drink his products. I have been back and you can grab a growler to go and they give you back reward bucks too. Great unique place definitely worthy to check out. It has a nice coutyard outdoor space which looks very inviting come springtime.“
“What a perfect evening/dinner. The presentation and flavors of the smoked trout and asparagus appetizer were phenomenal. The Rockfish was perfect. I never order dessert but will here based on last 2 visits. Pastry chef is a godsend. Tasted my friend’s sorbet and OMG!“
“Old world steakhouse atmosphere. Service was excellent and our appetizers of porlk bellies and stuffed mushrooms were delicious. The lamb chops were beautifully prepared and seasoned. And of course the filets were temped to perfection. Combine this with some martinis and an exquisite malbec and you have a truly excellent meal. Our server was knowledgeable and friendly which helped round out a fabulous evening.“
“I was impressed with this restaurant before even trying it out! When I looked this place up, just the pictures alone blew me away!So, when I actually went to see if it met up to my expectations, it surpassed them ? I now love this restaurant!“
“If your tired of the noisy pub grub and want fair price superbly prepared fine food in a comfy and classy atmosphere, Culinaria is your place. It has become our go-to place for fine dining and we've always enjoyed the food, service, and ambiance. We frequent Culinaria several times per year. This time our table of 4 had salmon, lamb chops, and trout topped with crabmeat. Everyone loved their meals and there were some left overs for lunch tomorrow. Highly recommend.Parking: Access and parking is fine.Kid-friendliness: Seems to be kid friendly but you won't find chicken fingers nad french fries on the menu so check out the menus before bringing children.Wheelchair accessibility: No problem with wheelchair accessiblity.“
“We stopped in for lunch as the previous reviews led me to believe this was the best time to come. We really liked everything we ordered too. We expected smaller venue honestly and more of a panera set up. However to my surprised it was full service. They had gluten free options when I asked the server who checked with the kitchen but the menu is labeled. The lattes we had were really good and only $5! I think this is a good addition for the area! sorry all photos are on insta: emsbitez“
“Outstanding food. Opted for ala carte instead of tasting because not everyone at the table was able to participate. I prefer the tasting menu but everything was still delicious. The chef is not only talented, but he also is very accommodating. Be sure to try his breakfast/brunch restaurant, Ciro Forty Acres -- fantastic!“
“We went here for Valentines Day. (the saturday after) I would recommend getting there around 5:30. Very quiet and not many people if you prefer that. As it got closer to 6-6:30, the place filled up. Good food, waiter was very nice, and it was an enjoyable evening.“
“Got email stating $19.99 steak and shrimp special. Wife and I said let's give it a try. Had a Cesar salad to start, followed by a great steak and shrimp plate. The steak was done to a perfect medium rare and very tender. My drink was a Manhattan up, which was also perfect. The service was excellent, fast and non intrusive. I am looking forward to the next email special at Firebirds. I will be there. I almost forgot my spouse mentioned her birthday was in a few days, when we finished dinner a decorated piece of cheese cake appeared on the house.“
“My husband and I are fortunate to be able to visit and eat in a lot of different cities, and when we're in Wilmington we go to Le Cav ... we have never been disappointed. Delicious food and cocktails, very good service, beautiful space. It's pricy but worth it. If you are in a rush, don't go. (I've seen mention about the valet, etc. in other posts ... keep in mind that the restaurant is attached to a hotel so the valet, bathrooms, etc. could quite possibly be the responsibility of the hotel and not the restaurant.)“
“Went with a few friends for dinner a few weeks ago. We ended up ordering a bunch of different appetizers to try. We were not disappointed. The Captain Crunch chicken tenders and dipping sauce were out of this world. I also tried, and fell in love with, the Voodoo crawfish tails. We ordered the perogies and nachos too which were also great. The staff was super friendly and the service was great. There is so much to look at in here. Can't wait to go back“
