“Had dinner here last night (5/2) and it was fantastic. Great selection of oysters (Fallen Pine were amazing) that provided my partner’s first experience with oysters on the half shell (she loved them). Wonderful cocktail list and our server Karen was fantastic. They just won a loyal customer on my frequent trips to Rehoboth!”
“as expected, an amazing experience! Thank you for the amazing service and delicious food, plus the celebration 🍾 Outstanding and thank you 😊”
“This is my favorite steak place in Delaware. Have dined many times here with family and friends and never had an issue with food or Staff.”

“This place is absolutely amazing. It’s hidden a bit, but what a gem. The ambiance is great, our bartender and server were so charismatic and awesome. Our food was delicious! My mom and I both got the Malfada Alla Vodka with sweet sausage & meatball. The place is squeaky clean as well. You can really tell that they put a lot of work into this restaurant. Highly HIGHLY RECOMMEND!”

“Our group of 13 went to shore break lodge for dinner prior to the Rehoboth Marathon. We loved the service, atmosphere and food! Thank you for accommodating our large group as not all places are group friendly! We will be back.”
“Another fine meal at Drift. This time celebrating our anniversary, but this is not just a special occasion place. Our fourth visit didn’t disappoint. We shared the inventive and delicious mushroom yakatori, the luscious roasted carrot panzanella, and the never-to-be-missed ribeye with Diane sauce, roasted mushrooms and baby potatoes. Every bite and sip of cocktails and wine was simply delicious!”

“We stopped here for the first time, and immediately are sold and this will be our go to for açaí bowls. The owner was incredibly kind to my daughter. Helped her design her bowl and was just super friendly. The bowls were PACKED full of fresh fruit. Best we have had locally. Glad we stopped, will definitely be a repeat customer!”

“Celebrated my daughter’s birthday last night at the restaurant and the dining experience was amazing. A friendly, smiling hostess welcomed us upon entry and seated us immediately. 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! The Fat Crab Cakes were insane! Jumbo lump crab with no filler! Stuffed Shrimp were just as good! Highly, highly recommend! Best dining experience I’ve had in a long time!”
“My wife and I stopped into Indigo tonight on a whim, because we had an errand in Rehobeth. We live an hour north. We probably eat Indian 2-4 times a month at various places. This was the BEST Indian food we've had. The service was outstanding and when I asked if they could make Gobi Manchurian because it wasn't on the menu, not only did they INSIST I let them make it, it was the best we've ever had. I would give this place 15 stars if I could. We will definitely be back for a date night. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.”

“Casual but gourmet food. My husband loved his steak-frites and salad. I had the crabcakes with absolutely perfect coleslaw (fresh, with light mayo dressing and plenty of citrus) - even comes with a side — I chose roasted Brussels sprouts which were excellent. No room for dessert but we’ve been to Rigby’s in the past for drinks, and I’ve gotten a slice of their key lime pie or their cheesecake with raspberry coulis — both homemade by John, I was told, and both superb. Server was a lovely, attentive young woman. There are some incredible winter food specials this time of year — prime rib, I think on Friday nights, for example. Rigby’s is unusual in offering specials even on weekends in the off-season so check it out before busy springtime hits.”
“Consistently delicious every time we dine here! Occasionally the service can be a bit slow depending on how full the restaurant is, however it’s well paced and the wait staff is professional and kind. The tuna app is phenomenal! Perfect crunch from the crispy rice and the flavor is explosive! We also love the dumplings and pork belly bao buns! Crab rangoons are great but you only get 4. The ambience alone transcends you and you forget you’re in DE! Every time we’re here we visit!”

“Stopped here with my family of 5 for lunch. The fruit and vegetables were not only fresh but large and delicious. We had a variety of salads and sandwiches. My daughter also had the smoked salmon platter which was simply amazing. The fruit parfait was large enough to be a meal itself and the fruit was so fresh. The tomatoes in the sandwiches were fresh and juicy. The manager/owner gave us some cookies for our wait time. We will definitely be back before we our trip is done.”
“Stopped in while biking through Cape Henlopen Park. Made for a perfect hydration point as it was super close to the start of the Junction Breakwater Path that heads back to the park. Enjoyed the Greatful Nation IPA to start off the day after a bisy morning of riding the trails. Allie was the beertender and was very pleasant. Sopped back later in the day for a Worth The Wait, Hazy IPA. I like the new location and always stop ok while biking in the area.”
“We decided on pizza for a windy Monday evening , and took a ride through Rehobeth, and decided to try Crust & Craft. We were not disappointed! The absolute best wood fired gourmet pizza we’ve had all summer! We decided on the Grandma pie, with a few toppings. The mixture of fresh crushed tomatoes, basil, and cheeses were perfect. A thick crust that was perfect! A dinner for two, and we will definitely make this a regular stop! Highly recommended! And our wait staff were awesome! A must visit!”
“My favorite spot at the beach. Great food and wine. Awesome service and atmosphere.”

“Great food awesome drinks and awesome live music!!!”
“Absolutely delicious!!! Hubby wanted steamed oysters, so we had those this time. They were so fresh and tasty. The crab cakes and grouper were great, too. Everything hit the spot! Our server was attentive and thoughtful! Can't wait to go back for the fried green tomatoes, though!”
“Excellent service, amazing food, and truly top notch coffee! I’m super picky when it comes to coffee, and this place nails it every time. The service is always great, and today was no exception—Matt went above and beyond, even with the holiday weekend rush. So kind and attentive!! Always a great stop.”
“Steamed halibut with ginger & scallions (moist, tender, flavorful, sumptuous), baby bok choy app, fried string bean app, thin-skinned pork dumpling app, pinot grigio, martini, wonderful owners and super service.
We've dined there for years, and the loyalty shown by locals and tourists is amazing.
Of course, the reasons for that are Sean, Danielle, and an incredible staff. We thank them all.
We travel a fair distance to dine there. And it warms our hearts to witness their treatment of custoners.
'Nuff said. Dine there.”

“I couldn’t wait for the moment to take one of our dogs to this shop! We brought back cookies last year for our pack at home. I took our GSP puppy during our recent camping trip to the area! We had a great time walking on the boulevard after her treat in the shop. We swam earlier at Cape Henlopen State Park.”
“My sister treated me to a brunch at your place. We each had the lox avocado toast with a side of bacon. She enjoyed a morning margarita and I had an Eggcellent bloody Mary. Everything was delicious and the service was Eggcellent. We will be heading to the beach again in April and plan on visiting your place. Folks try this place out, you will not be disappointed.”
“Huge thank you to Surf Bagel in Middletown, Delaware, for their generous donation of bagels for the Spring Meadow Early Childhood Center teacher and staff luncheon! A special shoutout to Katie F. and the incredible team for their kindness and continued support of our school community. Last November, they donated a gift card for our SMECC fall conferences, and it means so much to see a local business show up for our teachers again. The bagels and spread were fresh and delicious, and our staff truly appreciated them. We love you, Surf Bagel!”
“Five stars. A Rehoboth classic that still earns it.
I've been coming to Arena's for [years], and it's still one of my favorite stops downtown. Every busy beach restaurant has an off night, and I've read a few recent reviews that don't match what I've seen.
Last time I was in, Dana took care of us. They were warm, quick, and on top of everything even with the place packed. The French Dip came out hot and generous, and the fries were just as good as always. Arena's has been feeding this town since 1990 and has won Delaware Today's best sandwich and best bar awards, and on a good day you can taste why.
If something isn't right, just tell the staff. In my experience they fix it without any fuss. Grab a patio table (bring the dog), go on a Wednesday for half-price sandwiches, and order the Death Fries.
Arena's is a local institution for a reason. Support the people who keep it running!”
“Great locally owned spot hidden away from the main drag. Delicious home made donuts, muffins, cakes, pies and croissants. I had the ham and cheese croissant today and it was delicious. In honor of Jimmy Buffett Day, I had a Key Lime raises donut. Nice graham topping and filled with a creamy key lime filling. I am a cake donut girl but this combo was really tasty. Stop in. Visit them on Facebook and see what is baking and cooking for the day”
“a wonderful experience. wonderful food, wonderful service. our server Jess was so kind and efficient. can't wait to go back again.”
“Went for the first time and it was delicious! Owner (or maybe manager) was so friendly. Our waitress was also really nice and helpful with helping us make our decisions. I would absolutely recommend and we will be going back soon!”
“Amazingly consistently great food, the best happy hour at the beach and amazing staff. In the atrium, entertainment is excellent.”
“Stopped in for a quick bite before hitting the highway and heading home. Great atmosphere, delicious food. Top notch service! All around excellent”
“What a wonderful meal this evening. I totally recommend this spot. We’re locals down here and need seafood comp this place.”
“Salads were generous and delightful, the salmon as well as the halibut were cooked perfectly. Dining out on the front porch was a nice extra bonus. What a wonderful addition to Baltimore Avenue.”

“Simple three person birthday dinner. Cocktails were good but a bit small in size, Maryland Crab soup was really tasty as was the crab cake sandwich. Dessert was also good Smth Island Coconut cake and a creamy cheesecake. Server was wonderful: friendly and efficient.”
“My wife and I dine there frequently. The food is consistently good and selection is plentifully The staff is courteous and prompt. The price is more than reasonable. Living is a resort community it's difficult for families to find an affordable restaurant. The Chinatown Buffet is a wonderful family choice. They are a true benefit to our community.”
“We just happen to pick this place for lunch and so glad we did! The food is fabulous...have never had Mexican food that was so amazing I had the Chicken Tinga Dilla (quesadilla) and my guy Ed had the Beef Shorty Dilla. Both were delicious and my margarita was the best I had from Bethany to Rehoboth. The service from entire staff was great...but we really loved Charles...so much that we went back the next day to have the food again before we came back to Pittsburgh. We will be back!”

“Stopped in to grab a bite. I sat at the bar and had a cocktail and the filet. Both were exceptional! Nice pour for the cocktail but the filet was wonderful! Perfect temp, mashed potatoes and they substituted the spinach for some asparagus. Nice service! Would absolutely go back!”
“My husband and I went last night and everything about the meal was amazing. The food was incredible. We sat at the bar and the bartenders were so friendly and attentive. I had the white sangria and my husband had a margarita and both were perfect drinks (and my husband is not a margarita guy 😂.). We will definitely be back.”

“I just wanted to comment on what a spectacular experience I had today with my Sister-in-law, niece and nephew when we ate there today.
While I have been to Mission BBQ locations many times and always enjoy the food, I wanted to particularly call out the employees on this location for recognition, especially Cash (apologies if misspelt).
While I was waiting for my food order to be complete, Cash noticed me and asked me if I needed any help. I mentioned I was just waiting for my food and she offered to bring to our table for us which was very sweet.
She also took the time to bus our empty trays and ask us again if we needed anything, stopping to take the time to talk to my niece and us how we were doing.
I've ate at many expensive sit-down restaurants and haven't gotten half the experience and warm customer service that we received today from Cash. She is a credit to Mission BBQ and that location and deserves recognition.”
“My family and I just ate here for the first time and WOW, I’m over-the-moon HAPPY that we did! In addition to lunch and dinner, they serve breakfast all day. I got the “Breaking Bad” - scrambled eggs with the option of bacon or sausage. The chose bacon. Trust me, it’ll change your life. We live 2.5 hours away; and I might return just for breakfast.”
“I not only work here but have had the opportunity to experience many menu items. I’m not trying to be an opportunist, but I’m telling you all straight up. This is some of the best food I’ve ever had and this is echoed by many customers that I have had the pleasure of serving. When I say it like eating 5 star food without paying 100 per plate. Many of our menu items are made to order and created in house from scratch. Get the house made mozzarella stick. About 1.5 inches wide and 10 inches long, with our own house made marinara. Not only is excellent tasting but it’s also visually appealing when it arrives at the table. Try the dinner entree with 2 crab cakes. There’s not much holding it together, meaning limited filler, but loads of jumbo lump crab meat. Delicious!!! There’s also catch of the day that is cut and prepared in house daily. Or if handheld food, served at lunch or dinner, is your thing get the Mediterranean Flatbread or the Tuscan Chicken Panini. They are definitely customer favorites and are very easy to enjoy with all the flavor and texture built in to each. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Stopped in pre theatre last evening for a drink and dessert. One of the best espresso martinis I’ve had at the beach, paired with a lemon meringue citrus tart ( enough for two!) We look forward to returning!!”
