“Went to The Green House Gastropub on Friday 2/6/26 for lunch and had the Casa Verde Nachos (we added crab!), the French Dip Sammy and the Tony Fontina Burger along with a finely crafted Bloody Mary & Maple and Brown Sugar Old Fashion. The food was delicious, the drinks wonderful, and the waitstaff perfectly attentive. Our Bartender, Fa was a delight. 10 out of 10. Everyone should stop by!“

“I went with my group on a Thursday which was a very light evening which allowed my group to enjoy our whole dining experience. Our server had time to explain the menu and make recommendation to our group that included a 4 year old. Why is this relevant? Because, she gave her the same respectful service as she did the adults. Thank you. Now let's get to the food. I had the Chicken Picatta. I had to take the picture because at the first bite I new it was about to be destroyed. I left nothing on the plate. The Impossible Sloppy for those who need a vegan option also got a thumbs up. The food comes out hot hot! No one complained! I will be back the next time I am in Delaware.“

“Best food in the mall (including the stand alone restaurants). Amazing quality, every staff member is professional and polite. The crab bisque was enough to make me return again and again… not to mention the fries are 1000/10. I love sitting at the bar and watching the chefs prepare the food.“

“I have been visiting the border Cafe and had a good experience overall. The food is tasty, but the menu is a bit limited compared to other restaurants. The service is generally good and the staff are friendly. However, the waitress sometimes forgets a few things, and we noticed the bill had an extra item once and another time something we ordered was missing, so it’s a good idea to double-check the bill before paying.

One thing I really liked is that there was no wait time when we visited, which made the experience convenient. They also have a fun theme at times and staff may dress based on the occasion, which adds a nice touch to the atmosphere.

Overall, it’s a nice place for a casual meal with good food, but just make sure to review your order and bill.“
