We arrived at 8:35-40 pm. The restaurant closes at 10 pm. Still they started cleaning and sweeping and moving everything around us. That was really off-putting. Will never go again even if the food was great

It's not as good as it could be. The seafood isn't seasoned. The crawfish isn't cooked in the seafood boil long enough.

Recommend the Po Boy sandwiches, wings and boil bags. Went with a group of people and everyone enjoyed.

One of the better places we've eaten at since moving to Delaware! I ordered the seafood boil, and while the portions weren’t huge, the flavor was fantastic. I particularly enjoyed the beer selection, especially the one from Down East. The kids' menu was great, and our son even had leftovers for the next day!

The fried blue crab was delicious, but they could definitely improve the portion sizes in that area. Our server was really friendly and attentive, and the prices were reasonable for the quality of food. Overall, a pleasant dining experience that I would recommend!

Food looked good but I don't eat seafood. I had a Poor Boy Fried Chicken Sandwich. It was good.

I’m a huge fan of seafood boils and have tried just about every spot in the tri-state area—and this place definitely ranks among my favorites! The food is fantastic, the service is top-notch, and the atmosphere is equally impressive.

I’ve had more than one not so good experience at this location but this one occurred without even being served and my family will not be back. Per google, they close at 10pm on Wednesday. My daughter and I got to the hostess desk at 8:58pm. The hostess was sitting at the bar with her feet up and takes her time to approach us to let us know they stop seating at 9pm. I let her know it is not 9pm yet… she proceeds to repeat herself and then says you can talk to my manager. Her manager was behind the bar where she was sitting with her feet up. The manager proceeds to say even though it’s not 9pm yet, when we put the chairs on the tables, we are not seating anymore. Keep in mind… they had plenty of open booths. She also tells us we can order take out repeatedly. There was another couple there before me who was forced to order take out and had the same confusion I had. The employees I encountered at this location will cause me not to come back. Tacky and unprofessional. What restaurant stops seating an hour before closing? Ridiculous.

I came in a little under an hour before closing, so I understand service might be winding down — but even so, I expected a better experience, especially at this price point.

I ordered two drinks (a cosmopolitan and an upside-down pineapple cocktail), which came out to about $30. The cosmopolitan wasn’t made correctly and was served in a plastic cup, which really took away from the experience. At that price, I expect drinks to be made properly and served in the correct glassware.

The biggest issue, though, was with the seafood boil. One of the mussels had a thick, grey, fuzzy layer on it. When I brought it to the manager's attention, I was told it was “algae and seaweed.” I couldn’t bring myself to finish the meal after that. The server was fine, but I do wish he had offered something — a replacement, discount, or at least an apology — considering the situation.

Disappointed overall, and I’m not sure I’d return based on this experience.

Not good at all. The only good aspect of the dive is that it's close to Christiana Hospital so they treat the food poisoning you'll get. Dirty. Rude staff. Yuck.
