Im a chef of 20 years. Despite many restaurants that don't measure up, I had high hopes based on reviews.
The artichoke crab dip - Was microwaved. Could easily see the burnt cheese in the bowl, from the microwave. It was also thick. Adding a small amount of cream to losen it, would've helped.
My wifes dinner had no seasoning, while her steak was overseasoned. At 28 dollar meal, which looked like it was produced and presented at a diner. Slop.
I ordered a spicy burger at medium. It came out well done, with no seasoning on the burger and the smallest peice of burnt bacon on the bottom.
If this place is worth 4.2 stars, I didn't see it tonight. First day of the year.

What a unique place to share some family time playing duckpin and having excellent options in food. Service was excellent and we would definitely return

We hosted a post wedding bowling brunch and had a great experience! Food was wonderful and we had a great variety. Everyone especially liked the buffalo dip and Cajun charcuterie. Staff was professional and friendly. Bowling was casual and fun. Atmosphere was comforable and made it easy to mingle. Highly recommend for small events!

Everyone had a great time hanging out and playing duck bowling. The only negative would be the lack of apps/finger food on the menu. We would've stuck around and kept playing if they had more casual food items to hold us over. Otherwise a fun place for all ages, great service and nice atmosphere.

The food is amazing. We shared our meals, and the flavor is incredible. We met the cook and he was very nice. The service was great. I recommend brunch i can't wait to try dinner.

There were 5 bartenders, the bar is not large. It took 15 minutes (no exaggeration) for anyone to get a drink

My husband and I came to Wilma’s a year ago and had the Nashville hot chicken sandwich as one of the entrees. I couldn’t wait to come back to try it again. Unfortunately this time around was very disappointing. The bread was stale, the chicken was dry, the wings were bland. The waitress seemed either new or just mediocre. She didn’t anticipate the needs what so ever. No napkins to the table, and the food has definitely changed. We had a party of six, one of the drinks was not good and the bartender said “I’ll have it remade it’s not my best” and never returned. We had to ask…no apologies what so ever. Basic service. I’m hoping this was just a bad day for them. But I won’t be returning.
Small place, but good if you want to meet up with friends. The mushroom flatbread was delicious! The staff was friendly and the place was clean. Plus you get to play duck pins. Be warned though that parking isn't close by.

Stopped in here before seeing a show at The Grand Opera House. It was louder than expected because of the mini bowling alley. Party of 2, we were seated very quickly.
Ordered the cajun nachos, fried eggplant, and the NY strip. Both appetizers were excellent. The NY strip was good...not the best steak I've tasted in DE, but was cooked well, and each dish was very filling (I'm 6ft 220 ibs).
The service was great, the food was great....I only wish I tried dessert...AND received 15% off with showing my show ticket. Can't wait to go back

We had an amazing experience! We tried the Thursday tasting menu special and it was so much fun. We got to try 12 different things on the menu. The pork belly and crab dip were amazing! The crab cake and shrimp and grits were equally delicious. There were great gluten free options. The manager was very friendly and answered all our questions. The space was both historic and modern. We would definitely come again. Even took home a Photo Booth souvenir!
