27 Best American Restaurants near Bass River

“You've got to enjoy Thursday at Allen's Clam Bar. A 12-ounce broiled or fried lobster tail and 2 sides for $29.99 is just as amazing as Chef Craig's other creations. Great food, great service, and a fun time at Allen's will make your day.“

“We were looking for a good breakfast yesterday 11/2/25, and happened to find TW Howells restaurant. We stopped in and placed our orders and while waiting for our food, we could not help eyeing all the wonderful dishes coming out of the kitchen! Each of us had a great breakfast! The waitress was helpful and fun, and even the owner/Chef came out and talked with us. We even met some of his brothers that help keep everyone happy!! All four of us highly recommend this restaurant and will likely be planning another road trip from Delaware to visit soon.“

“Chef Niko is always creating something new that we have never had before. His ability to combine flavors in his dishes is second to none!“

“You have to try the ranch fries they come with potato wedges but no get them with regular fries. To much potato with the wedges and takes the other flavors away with just potato. Food is amazing especially the scallops wrapped in bacon, and the seafood bisque. Been coming here for years and will continue with many more years.“

“Take off 6/16. I enjoyed two espresso martinis and an egg platter. The two running the show are so incredibly funny and entertaining. I debated missing my flight just to hang out with them. Make sure you sit at the bar or if you’re at a table - please wait to be seated ;)“

“We attended a small 50th Birthday party at Fred and Ethels with 12 in our party. We were told there was a 45 min wait. We were seated in about 20 min. The server was excellent. The food, especially the Bang Shrimp Tacos were Banging! It's a little far from me but I'd go there every week if I could. Can't wait for my next meal there. I'd definitely recommend Fred and Ethels. Parking can be found even on the weekends.“

The owner's and staff are AMAZING AND VERY dedicated to their guests and it shows. the inside and outside are a pleasant way to spend your time while enjoying the root beer floats, food, and all the good times they have to offer. Definitely would go there again..“

“Best wings I've ever had. Make sure to get them 'back on the grill'! Only real complaint is that this place is too small to accommodate all the people that want to frequent it.. but how can I hold Doyle's popularity against it?“

“I like it here but the bass on the stereo is so high, the bar and my barstool vibrate. It's very annoying. I asked the bartender to turn it down she said the owner has it locked up in another room. I suggest you turn it down“
