The bar offered an impressive selection of drinks and great food that exceeded expectations, making it a standout spot in terms of culinary quality. Unfortunately, the experience was overshadowed by consistently poor service — inattentive staff, long wait times, and a general lack of hospitality made it difficult to fully enjoy the otherwise great menu. It's a place worth visiting for the flavors alone, but be prepared to exercise patience and possibly advocate for your own service.

I recently hosted a surprise 60th birthday party for my husband at Torbert, and it was absolutely perfect. The venue was the ideal size, providing a cozy and intimate atmosphere that was just right for our gathering. We even had a musician, which added a wonderful touch to the celebration.
What truly stood out was the phenomenal staff. They went above and beyond to ensure that everyone was having a great time. Their attention to detail and friendly demeanor made the event seamless and enjoyable for all our guests. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. I highly recommend Torbert for any special occasion!

Can't talk to the food, but the place has a great vibe and our cocktail server was excellent. My favorite thing about my first time there was how there was such a mix of different types of people. Wish there were more places like that. Definitely will eat next time!

Fun bar.
Dulce Pina
Nice live music. We only had dessert and that was delicious. The drinks were great and delicious but unfortunately the service wasn’t great.

Phenomenal atmosphere and one of the very best pizzas I’ve ever enjoyed. The service is top notch as well!

Place has a great atmosphere. Only got one app it was good but not enough to rate. Drinks were amazing, and the bartenders were personable and professional. Very interesting ingredients for drinks that don't seem like they will go together, but every drink we tried was really good. Great place will definitely be back to try more food. The only negative thing was that the host/greeter was not friendly or welcoming at all,but maybe he was having a bad day.

We hosted our wedding reception at Torbert. It was beyond perfect. The venue from the food to the team was outstanding. Our guests have not stopped talking about how much fun they had. The planning process was easy, straight forward, and were able to personalize the space to truly reflect the event we wanted. 10/10, highly recommend. Even if you aren't hosting an event, Torbert has great cocktails and food for a laidback Saturday night!
Great spot with great staff. Cocktails were very good.

Great place for a date! We decided to sit at the bar and were greeted instantly with a cup of ice water until we decided on our personal beverages. The menu was upscale and diverse without insanely high prices. I dined on 2 appetizers : BEST GRILLED CHEESE EVER! Cajun style shrimp and mozzarella cheese ... Whodathunkit to be such a complimentary cuisine?! The other being Crab Rangoon Fried deviled eggs

The ambiance here is like no other in Delaware. It gives a true speak easy feel. True mixilogists work here, creating well-balanced, eye pleasing, delicious cocktails. The food is outstanding as well. This establishment is a must!
