Henlopen City Oyster House is a highly-regarded restaurant in Rehoboth, known for its superb oysters and excellent selection of warm water fish options like Wahoo. The restaurant has received praise for its amazing food, with many customers recommending the lobster roll and oyster poboy. The appetizers, including steamed clams and clams casino, have also been described as delicious. The staff, including Melanie, are commended for their exceptional service, being friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable. While specialty drinks and the key lime pie are highlights, some customers have noted minor issues, such as a lack of appreciation for bread crumbs on certain dishes and overcooked vegetables. Despite these concerns, the consistency in menu, portion sizes, and freshness has been praised for many years, making it a favorite spot for regulars. However, waiting for a table can be challenging, especially without reservations, as parking can be difficult due to street parking. Overall, the experience has been described as worth the wait.
