“We love this place. The owners and staff are the best. The menu is top notch and so is the service. If you’ve never been you need to go and once you do you will be treated like family. Thank you to Tony and the rest of the crew. You guys go above and beyond.“

“We held a celebration of life for my husband this past weekend. Joe was great to work with. The venue was perfect. The food was delicious and the service was great. We had more people attend than planned. They were able to keep up with the demand for more food.. Shout outs to Tyler, Denise and Amy whose service was impeccable. I highly recommend the Marshallton for future events.“

“I love the atmosphere at this quaint spot in North Wilmington. The service and food are the best! I highly recommend.“

“Wonderful food, highly recommend the grilled shrimp and the jerk egg rolls. Enjoyed the lobster Mac n cheese too! Old fashion drink was really good!“

“The food , staff and atmosphere at Mary's are wonderful. It's like eating in a friend's kitchen, where the food is homemade, and the staff treats you like friends. Highly recommend. They treated my 92 year old father like he was their own.“

“I haven’t been to DE in a while. Tonight I had a surprise night off so I asked my son if he’d like to have dinner. He recommended a new nice looking restaurant, Roost Kitchen & Pub. I checked out the reviews and was pleased. We had a party of 4 and Ashley was our waitress.

Her recommendations were A1. I ordered the cheesesteak bao bun snack and salmon with broccoli entree. My son and his friends ordered roost burgers with fries. He also got the sweet potato fries with a “marshmellow” dip (delicious). I ended up ordered an additional to go.

I ordered an herbal-sweet mocktail, very good. Clean bathrooms, industrial/city aesthetic black/brick with clean lines, and phenomenal service. We watched a few basketball games and enjoyed ourselves. We’ll definitely be back.

A very nice night back in DE, thank you for your hospitality Ashley!“

“I’ve always loved Columbus Inn throughout the years and highly recommend it for quality fine dining and a quaint enjoyable atmosphere. And the front deck is an amazing spot all year round.“

“Had a wonderful Dunch at Snuff Mill today. Fabulous food, ambiance, and service! Shout out to Dorrie. I was able to get in at 3:30 but starting to fill up as I was leaving around 5pm on a Tuesday!... Definitely make a reservation for dinner! Some outdoor seating with heaters but also saw lap blankets.“

“We love this place and everything about it, the food, the service, the atmosphere is laid back, no rush, no hard sell on the crème brûlée.“

“Our second time here and we love the food and laid back ambience. Everyone is always friendly and we enjoy the 80s music!“

“I absolutely love the charcoal pit. Been a customer since I was a kid. But what is up with the new French fries?? The fries that you always had before were way better and perfect rather than these new godaweful things. Please change back to the original ones. These SUCK 🤢🤮🤬😡“

“This is by far the BEST cafe I’ve been to so far. Everything is a 10 for me especially their bagels, I haven’t been able to find a better one since I’ve tried their asiago bagel 😌 keep up the great work guys!!!“

“good food and good service“

“Used uber eats. Food arrived quick. Portions are huge!“

“Very nice and friendly owner and staff. Food always delicious 😋 Very clean cozy environment 👌“

“The food never disappoints. We always stop on our way to Longwood Gardens. I would give them a 10. If you like a fun and great wait person, ask for Serene, wonderful service.“

“Clean restaurant with fast service and delicious food! I have a severe food allergy which makes it hard to eat at most restaurants. However, they were very accommodating and we had the best server, Amanda, who made sure I was completely comfortable and taken care of. She was so kind, fast to answer my questions, and very knowledgeable. I definitely recommend eating here during your stay and be sure to request Amanda ☺️“

“Great food! Great local pub. Very welcoming atmosphere. Staff were friendly and likeable. Buffalo chicken tenders and burgers were amazing. Salad was generous and fresh. We picked this pub randomly because of the name (!) And good reviews. Small parking lot on-site designated for patrons, which is very convenient on this busy street. I would highly recommend stopping in for good food and drinks.“

“Truly a wonderful little diner. All the menu items you can expect from a typical diner. There are plenty of vegetarian options but would not recommend for vegan or gluten free customers.
The staff was so nice and friendly. The atmosphere was very welcoming. They have a lot of regulars and it is very cool to see all the interactions between the staff and the customers. Such a great atmosphere.
Food was good. The scrapple was really tasty! Eggs were cooked well and loaded with cheese. Grits were delicious. All of the serving are of heaping size. Coffee is fresh and tasty and unlimited refills.
Prices are unbeatable.
Really enjoyed eating here and would recommend to anyone looking for a good breakfast spot!“
